Horrible art style.

[Kraako]

This game really look so bad... Horrible and cartoony art style, and by looking at the trailer it look and feels like a poor flash game running in your browser.

It's emberrasing to see they put so little effort into making games these days.

I love this series since my old childhood but Megaman 11 has really bad graphics when 8bits is great in different way, because the animation is perfect in stages and characters.
This 2.5D looks more marketing for smartphones style. Sadly could be best animation movement and art combination, like in Megaman 8 and Megaman & Bass where was close perfect.
I hope a great visual patch in the future (even in DLC content), but...

Then get the hell out of here.

People who stay in nostlagia never accept changes and reality. You are just a brain dead delusion.

Only few people care about 8 bit. Why should capcom care about your "taste".

And why should Capcom care about any other kind of taste? This is very poor phrasing.

What? I tell about Megaman 8 and Megaman & Bass as a near perfect style if in 2D. I dont say 8bit was superior.
I have waiting a good visual 3D Megaman game for years and hated when they keep the 8bit in 9 and 10 title. Serious, i wanted some like in Megaman & Bass, because is the evolution.

You not understood my point. Is not about 8bit, is about low whim in sprites smooth movements from a game made in 2018 by a great company.
By the way, i am happy with another chapter in Megaman story.

No reason to be that rude just because someone express their opinion...

thruth be told, I don't really want a new megaman to look like the 8bit version either.. but I think the 8 bit version look a lot better than megaman 11. So I would prefer that over this lol...

truth is megaman 11 is poorly made. no one can deny that a company as big as capcom could have made it look a lot better. therefor its not strange if people complain on the lack of effort put into this game.

I too am a Megaman fan since i first played it on the NES in my childhood years and Ill play it if it's in old school 8 bit, 16bit, 32 bit or ps2 style of the X series but have to agree a little on the graphic of the game. Not so much that it looks ugly, just that I REALLY wish they would have taken more advantage of the hardware power of the ps4, xbox one, N switch and modern PC and made it look like something a little more next gen so to speak. Kind of like how Mighty No. 9 was originaly supposed to look like in the first concept video of the game.
Hey, I'm thankfull they made this game and looking foward to playing but I would have perfered a diff look to the game as it does now. If I had to guess I'm sure there resources for this game wasnt what you would find for a modern game like call of duty or something on that line. I mean lets face it, most of the people who will be playing this game are kids of the 80's and 90's who played it first on there Nes or snes. It does supprise me though that this game, graphic wise, looks alot like Mighty No. 9.
You know, They could be very well testing the waters on how well this will sell and if it does good they will make it look better on future tittles if they are to indeed to comes.

I'm a massive mega Man fan and I've already pre ordered this game because it's all about gameplay first and foremost. And as long as this game delivers the classic mega Man experience I'll at least be able to get my money's worth out if it. But I find it very interesting that these graphics aren't being completely panned. I find the art style absolutely horrid. I would prefer any sprite style over this. It simply just doesn't look very appealing to me. It looks flat and missing nuance or detail.

And I don't have an issue that it's not 8 bit. This style simply just doesn't look very good. It definitely could have been done better.

I'm not asking for any realistic graphics and I don't want any 8bit graphics lol... but sure as hell I don't want it to look like game is made in paint as well.

So if you claim the game looks like it was made in paint, I guess that means you can do better to prove your point.

Right?

Well if you say so, then you are probably aware of the problem with the art style else there would be no point for me to prove. There is no coincidence people critizise the game over the horrible art style and say it looks like a bad phone game. If youre taking a look at the chracters, then yes they really look as if they could have been made in paint. characters doesnt either fit it in well into the environments.

Comparing it with Ori and the blind forest and it looks really bad, Even Sonic the hedgehog 4 looks a lot better and that game was released 8 years ago. and Sonic isn't that impressive looking today.

I like old design. MM8 and MaB. A new Mega Man has too large head with such a small body. Its ugly.

2.5D has a fixed vertical axis, all hoizontal panning is strictly for show, Megaman's animations look great considering he was purposely limited to how he works in the 8-bit titles. Enemies look clean and faithful to their art, Tiles are distinct and un-mistaken from background elements. the Cell-shading is Actually quite beautiful to look at as it does resemble something drawn and inked rather than splotching a heavy ink filter over some muggy textures.

In short, this is exactly how I would imagine a Megaman game would look like in 2018. Now do yourself a favor and remove the nostalgia goggles and play the game.

Hey dumbass, it's a Mega Man game they've always been like this lol you have every right to not like it, but why trolling?

yeah well, uhm... if you followed the rest of the discussion you'd realize most people dont want it to look as the older game so all that about a nastalgia feeling is not a valid argument really. And although you may think its pretty to look at, it doesnt change the fact its poorly made.

It also doesn't change the fact that all the better looking examples are higher budget titles or indies that have the time to polish and there is an ocean of poorer looking examples with Mighty No.9's Pizza explosions at the abyss.

Many tend to leave out the technicals. This game was built to function like the 8-bit titles which is a key reason why Megaman's animations are stiff, this is also a budget title that Capcom as a whole weren't even sure to make in the first place.

So, yeah. The game looks good.
