    I haven't talked about Mega Man in... wow! A very long time! Today Theorists, we are going to remedy that! When I think of Mega Man, I tend to think of the amazing gameplay rather than any deep, overarching story. That was an oversight on my part as the lore within the Mega Man universe is CRAZY! Did you know that Mega Man will bring about the end of all human life? No? Well put on your helmets, we're digging deep into this franchise!

      I’m a huge fan of the Mega Man franchise and I’ve known most of the plot for both timelines pretty well but I’ve never looked at how Wily’s actions from the classic series influenced the rest of the original timeline. But I’ve always seen Wiel is Wily but as some kind of clone.

    Little heads-up: It's been heavily implied that Wily's conciousness was digitalised and copied, and then was put on at least 2 Reploids, them being Serges from X2 and Isoc in X6. So when Sigma says "I met an old man who knows a lot about you" he might actually have met Wily in a different body, under a different name. Like Serges, who was working for Sigma as a X Hunter.

      Not to mention he was basically torturing Zero with memories and messages in X4 and 5
      Had zero not been so conflicted with what he was seeing in "dreams" he might not have been so closed off after killing iris, in X5 and X8 u can see he's still broken up about it, in X5, he wouldn't have offered to STAY dead(an act that did little to nothing besides mess X up and make him more adverse to fighting, which we see in X7) and maybe wouldve come up with an idea for the mother elf much sooner than he did
      It also caused him to not care too much about Layer, which, although it was small, Zero wouldve hopped down sooner if he wasn't beating himself up over iris death(sumn sigma, and basically wily caused).

  • @BrassMountainLion
    @BrassMountainLion 2 года назад +35

    Sigma is suitable for realizing Wily's ambitions, but not Wily's technical expertise. The X5 reference to an old man may refer to Wily's consciousness manifesting in Serges (and later Isoc.)
    Weil seems to be a copycat (which is on point for the Z series), but one could speculate that Wily's consciousness had eventually found a way to manipulate a human host unbeknownst to them.

    point of interest: In MML2 Megaman is a "purifier" unit meant to destroy "aberrant" units that went rogue. But in the original japanese they use the same word for aberrants that they did for mavericks. Which means even in the future the maverick virus is still hanging around and making reaverbots turn violent

    But you could also see this as Dr.Light's win, if you instead see it from the perspective that humans and robots are finally living in harmony as the carbons, with there still being a Megaman out there to protect the peace.

      I wouldn't consider X to be dead until Zero3, but yeah, he had technically a longer life. But then again, it seems like the Wily Virus outlasted them both, since Mavericks seem to be an issue even as far as in the Legends era....
      Although as far as we know the virus might have been long gone, and "maverick" may simply have changed its meaning to "criminal".

  • @TheOmegaDragon
    @TheOmegaDragon 3 года назад +8

    In Legends I'm certain they wanted to kill the humans because the world became too overpopulated. The master thought because the carbons valued their limited life as opposed to the immortality that Eurasia (I think that's what it's called) provided, that it was important to preserve their rights to live. The master died because he was away from Eurasia too long and no longer desired the luxury Eurasia provided and wanted Trigger to disable the master system that the mother units Sara and Yuna were trying to protect. Juno was charged with monitoring Katelox island to ensure the proper amount of carbons lived on that island but it was overpopulated so he wanted to wipe them out since it would be easy enough to clone them.
    Zero was a catalyst to the virus probably in an effort to defeat Light's creations (X) which is supported by Zero's dream when Wily said he had a rivalry with Light. Zero is Wily's legacy not so much the virus because the virus made Zero stronger and in great amounts more violent. Light might have contributed more to the poor state of the world simply because Reploids of today are based off the template of X which birthed villains like Sigma although the term Reploids is a replica of humans/animals and not so much X in general. Zero is a major reason humans and reploids still exist because of the sacrifices he made to ensure the peace is kept between them. Even X adopted that state of mind when he sacrificed his body to seal the Dark Elf.

    If memory serves, X was put in hibernation to run countless simulations so as to always be able to make the correct moral choice in any decision. But he was awoken early by mistake, and used as the prototype for all other robots (Called “Reploids” because they replicated X).
    And Dr. Light’s capsules were hidden here and there to help X face future threats, which seemed to be abundant throughout the entire X series.
    So I’ve always wondered: Did X truly, really ever get out of hibernation? Or is he still in there, guided by an artificial Dr. Light? Could everything from the Wily Virus to the choice about preserving the Carbons be part of X’s moral training?

    • @fujinshu

      I theorize that the reason he seemingly lucked out on so many attempts on his life has got to do with well-meaning time-travelers, and their conflict with prudent time-travelers who realize that while yes, a good deal of concentrated evil can be attributed to a single individual, and hypothetically saving the people of this planet a great deal of heart-ache in the process, nonetheless the chaotic rippling effect of actually going back in time to accomplish that feat ends up being moderately worse due to some kind of comparison between choosing the evil you know over the evil you don't. If time-travel is real, and humans can engage in it to some measured extent, I expect the time-police will have ordained a quasi-permanent bureau specifically to catch the numerous would-be temporal vigilantes who decide to forego the golden rule of time-travel, in the act of trying to change history with a single--_just single_--extrajudicial assassination.

    The only problem with this theory- when exactly didn't Dr. Wily state he wanted to wipe out humanity? It always seemed he wanted to "Take Over the World", (as you noted the early virus caused Robot (Master)s to emulate), via Robots... Ruling over a dead world never seemed to his goal.
    So, how did he win- the series doesn't end with Wily (or his continuation) ruling over humanity, or even a world of robots/carbons- flipping the table doesn't mean you've won the game, just ended it.

    It's been a while since I last dipped in MegaMan lore, but if I remember correctly the zero we play in the zero series isn't the original zero, but a copy the same way X had a copy in those games. The original zero is omega who is a bad guy once again. The original Zero has been modified to be more technologicaly advanced (that's why omega doesn't look like his megaman X self) and the scientist who made those upgrades also made a Zero copy, which had all of zero's programming but not the part that made him bad

Light still ends up revolutionizing the world, Wily still acts out. By the end of the Battle Network games though, Wily's finished. For the Starforce end of the timeline, the villains are all aliens if I remember correctly.

Granted, Wily was covered in a silhouette, but it was the same voice actor and in Day of Sigma, the capsule Zero awakens from has the exact same makeup and structure of the evil Robot Masters Wily created. So, yeah, it was completely stated out right.

Over on Dookieshed's theory video he mentions something Game theory missed that being a Maverick named Sergus in X2 who is theorized to be a body for Willy. He even laments over losing to a creation of Light who he shouldn't know and going without defeating the X hunters gives Sigma the ability to recreate Zero, meaning they had to have met
