To be fair, Gunvolt is very, VERY different to MMZ and MMZX. Its system is very different, and for someone who's mostly practiced in MMZ's priority system, GV's gonna be a weird beast to tame.
Considering how gunvolt plays, it'll definitely be awhile before we see anything from you with it. Both because i understand how different gunvolt is compared to Mega, but also because i know that, to get to the level that you have now with the zero series, it'll be awhile.
For me, Gunvolt is a good game and that is it! It kinda hurts the screen being very polluted, but the stages have good gimmicks and the bosses have very good patterns. But for more assiduous MMZ players, it doesn't feel like the "spiritual successor" as people say. Also, if you want to feel playing "Megaman game" without the blue bomber, try Rosenkreuzstillete and its sequel (Freudenstachel), also known as "Megaman + Castlevania + Waifus". That game is legendary for me, it is better than the NES games and also has god tier aesthetics and OK characters/story.
Yeah that sums up my experience too. The Gunvolt games fit into the same sub-genre of platformer as the Zero/ZX games, but it's like saying that Crash Bandicoot is the spiritual successor to Mario. They're different enough to be considered their own thing, and the Gunvolt games fail to scratch the Zero/ZX itch for me despite being wholly enjoyable experiences of their own.
@@Crow_Rising agree with you both, it was an OK game, but not really the same style as either MMX or MMZ not very memorable, like I am not even sure how many of the there are by now but I've beaten at least 2, and only know that there's a magic singing girl and an evil corporation
Yeah, I've definitely made a single comment asking if there was any interest in Gunvolt (specifically Copen related), not knowing if it was ever addressed due to my relative newness. I hear you loud and clear though, my guy.
I would say the character Gunvolt himself wouldn't be your gameplay style, but Copen, a playable character in Gunvolt 2 (that's kinda has X4 onwards' select a character style) is made made for fast paced movement and messing around with his weapons would be amazing for your showcase talents. That's why I like his spinoff games, Luminous Avenger, more than the main Gunvolt games because it has X-style mobility.
I was one of the people who asked this question at some point in the past. Back when I was new to the channel myself. The general problem with Gunvolt is GV doesn't have an arsenal as varied as X and Zero do. Copen from the 2nd game and then what's her face the main heroine of the 3rd game do but GV not so much. This makes the concept of "tech" videos a little weird for the series. But at the same time it does share a lot in common with the MMZ series and Inti Creates, the same folk who worked on those games, made Gunvolt so you know it's gonna be quality. I try to support Inti anyway I can. I really do love their games.
My problem with Gunvolt is that the style of combat works really, REALLY well for bosses, but seems wasted on regular enemies, I'd rather just cut the cannon fodder in half with a sword....like in the Zero series. I only played the first game, though, so my credibility isn't high.
While I do like the Gunvolt series, I'd hardly consider myself a diehard fan of the games. They don't scratch that Zero/ZX itch for me, and I have more fun replaying the Zero/ZX games than I do the Gunvolt games. That being said though, I do think they're good games. I even liked iX 2, which is a bit more of a controversial opinion. The simple fact of the matter is that although the Gunvolt series is also made by Inti-Creates and features Zero/ZX elements in it, they simply aren't Mega Man games in either story or gameplay. It is very much it's own franchise that fits into the same subgenre of platformer without being an outright clone. If you're looking for Zero 5 or ZX 3, you're not finding it among the Gunvolt titles.
Hey! You're the person who made all those helpful guides and reviews! Thank you for that btw :) Honestly, when i played the first LAIX game, it really scratched the Zero ich for me, the music, the style, the adrenaline it's all there, it felt like Zero was back and was a blast to play, LAIX2 feels more like ZX3 with the aesthetic and music and was also really good, i think all Megaman Zero fans should try these games, the first LAIX specially. I see you didn't mention Dragon Marked for Death! Have you tried it? I think gameplay wise it completely scratches the Zero ich due to the melee combat focus with sometimes complicated inputs you gotta learn, sure the asthetic couldnt be further from Zero but the gameplay feels fantastic and you can definitely be very stylish with it.
@@MiguelMarques1402 I've played quite a bit of Dragon Marked For Death. It's basically like a cross between the Zero games and Monster Hunter. It's fun, but it's got a lot of issues such as there being way too much grind.
@@Crow_Rising Oh alright, thanks for replying! For me the core things im looking for are a good combat system and bosses, anything else doesn't really impact the experience negatively much. I've played through the game multiple times now and grinding for rare items is never mandatory, in fact if you grind the game can be made a joke at all stages. All required gear can be obtained always in 1-3 runs of the missions. The game also had a lot of updates, i've only played the most recent version, but it seems the grind was minimized and a lot of endgame stuff and qol was added or changed, some people i spoke to say the game is pretty much completely diferent but i wouldnt know. What i know is that Twin Dragon's Coffin is one of the best Inti Creates bosses imo and no other bosses they've made are like it, if you haven't fought it i recommend giving the game another chance just for it! :)
Gunvolt is as close as I can get to the movement aspect of megaman zero but the gameplay is completely different from the likes of megaman x1-4 and Zero 1-4 so don't feel the need to rush into it....that being said as an avid viewer that uses your guides and runs to get better at megaman zero I definitely would be hyped to see you no damage azure striker gunvolt if you wanted.
I really enjoyed Gunvolt and was actually about to ask you this question lol. It's not as Stylish as the Zero games, but the Luminous Avenger games scratched the Zero ich for me, it might play differently, but the attitude, the music, the drama, it all feels like Zero is back and made me very happy. One thing that generally keeps increasing is the Boss quality! So look forward to that! However i want to make you aware of another game from Inti.Creates that completely scratched the Zero ich and it's my favourite outside of the Zero games, and that is Dragon Marked for Death! It's melee combat focused again, but you got multiple characters and can be played online co-op!! It really feels like Megaman Zero online, the bosses are great and you got a lot of tech and complicated inputs to master, the trailer on steam is 6 minutes long but you will definitely know if it's for you by the end, really good trailer, highly highly recommend you look into it :) Also thank you for your videos they made me be able to enjoy and learn the Zero games more! :)
Gunvolt plays very differently from Zero. Just, everyone, keep that in mind. I doubt he'll DISlike it, but it's not typically the kind of stuff he puts on the channel. Zero is very aggressive and filled with active engagement. What are the Gunvolt bosses? Tag them and hold a button while dodging. I love the games. I'm not criticizing them. I LOVE the games. But you have to admit that at their core, the Gunvolt titles are more passive than Zero is. Flashiness in Gunvolt is just showing off creative ways to dodge boss patterns, compared to Zero's flashiness being about hyper-aggressive and tactical combos. Gunvolt's higher-skill play isn't as fun to make or show off.
But GunVolt doesn't have Smoking Sexy Style combos. I'd even rather see Magnus Zero play Valdis Story or something with at least more options (the ideal is more technicality).
Is that another zxAdvent situation?🌚 It's ok just take your time, theres a lot of stuff you can do just like that dmc mini clip you posted, so yeah from the time I started watching your channel the number one rule for me is: Patience is very rewarding. Your quality speaks for itself, so I don't mind waiting even if it's a year for you to post cause you're just frickin awesome.
Gunvolt's a lot of fun, but it also doesnt have much in terms of optimization potential in the way the Zero/ZX has, it's more about resource management and not making mistakes than it is about pinpoint offense. That said, I think Copen's gameplay style might be a better fit, there's more offensive variety and optimization potential there that you might like.
I played GV and the GV campaign of 2, little bit of Copen I think? Maybe I beat his campaign?... they're...fine. Didn't hugely love them, didn't hate them, do dislike the autorevive with infinite energy thing though, as well as felt like things including the protagonists were a bit big on the screen. And with the slower pace from Zero, plus the supers you get, it's kind of like they made Megaman X games, I thought. I know GV3 happened but I hadn't the notion to look further.
I'm pretty meh when it comes to the Gunvolt series. I love the art of the games and the story has cool elements to it, but of the three games I've played the gameplay never clicked in a satisfying way like most other Mega Man games do for me. Though whenever you do decide to tackle the series I would def be interested in seeing what you put out.
i played the demo for gunvolt, and to say i was underwhelmed is an under statement. one of the stages was literally just walking right over the same background fighting the exact same enemies over and over again.
@@megamanpwn3dmario i remember the first game is way more repetitive than all the rest maybe look up a video of gv2 or luminous avenger if you're curious
Why play gunvolt when you can play the 10x better megaman like game called open season on the gba smh (I’m not joking btw open season gba is heavily inspired by megaman)
Welp i tried gunvolt one time and.... yeah i dont like it. People say the games is like mmZ but i cant se anything that look like exept maybe the character being a stoic dude. The game maybe is fine but its just not for me
Hm, before I've watched this video, I never heard of gunvolt(even if i watch a lot of mega man zero games), so, yeah...also, I play mega man games in emulators, so probaly if I've played mega man games in the original plataform they were made for, I probaly would be better in mega man games...
LAix2 and GV3 gameplay is essentially a more shallow version of X4's Saber combat. You are unlikely to find much enjoyment out of those games if you play them (especially since you play Zero 3 on the regular).
I played Gunvolt 1 and 2 hearing they were kind of spiritual sequels, and… they just did not click for me at all. The narratives were very whack, the character designs lacked the cool animalistic features, and the gameplay gimmicks for both characters didn’t feel good to master. I’m here for the J-Pop songs, but frankly I don’t advocate you put yourself through it out of obligation.

Honestly instead of spiritual successor of Z/ZX game, Gunvolt & LAiX more like spiritual successor of Megaman X, specifically X4-6.
LAix2 and GV3 gameplay is essentially a more shallow version of X4's Saber combat. You are unlikely to find much enjoyment out of those games if you play them (especially since you play Zero 3 on the regular).
I played Gunvolt 1 and 2 hearing they were kind of spiritual sequels, and… they just did not click for me at all. The narratives were very whack, the character designs lacked the cool animalistic features, and the gameplay gimmicks for both characters didn’t feel good to master.
