[Mega Man X] What do you think about the armor design of the X8?

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx24

Next-level male armor

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ueno Clinic

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I like it more than the previous armor because it’s simpler.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I like the collar area, it looks like a coat.

6: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

I like turtlenecks, though.

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I like the design of the head, hands, and feet.

I don’t like the thinner buster.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s nothing going on with the chest, right?

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

No matter what X is wearing, Zero is just going to swing around with a naginata…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you combine head H and arm I, it’s one of the strongest classes of DPS in history.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

I liked it, but I don’t think it was a design that would have been well-received at that time.

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx12

It looks more like something like space armor rather than a pure power-up.

14: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

It’s not bad, but it makes me think that the armor that resonates with kids playing X is something like Force Armor.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

The x8 has the image of being the most difficult to use with zero.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like it relatively, but I think the deformed design is more attractive than the high proportion.

Well, they probably wanted to give off a cool impression, so that might be a different story.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think the design has become relatively less out of place compared to other characters in this era.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

I was disappointed that all the armor looks the same.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like it’s for 3D.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There is a feeling that the elegance is increasing.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

Trash design

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you watch the opening movie without any prior knowledge,

It seems like a mysterious new character flashed by for a moment instead of X’s armor.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if they imagined a Frieza style that repeatedly powers up and ultimately becomes simpler.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the simplicity of this armor.

Buster, be big.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if Buster is something like that, with the design getting closer to DASH’s Shining Laser as time progresses, since there was a thin laser form.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though it’s said that air dashing became the default without armor,

Until now, when it comes to feet, it felt like there were many possible actions.

I wondered if it just meant that my jumping ability increased or that dashing became a way to evade…

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it would be perfect if it had a design similar to the muffler from Command Mission.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Ultimate that isn’t very strong among the series.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s pretty cool except for around the groin area.

But it’s a bit like Exe.

If you say it’s a soul unison with a navigator inspired by astronauts, I would believe it.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

I felt that if I focused too much on being something different from what I’ve done until now, I couldn’t see it as cool.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

Nova Strike has become a technique for defeating bosses, similar to the early Hadouken, rather than a move that is continuously used on stage.

It seems that the boss of X8 can only be defeated after using its special move once, so it’s not satisfying to defeat it in one hit.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

The design can change with the times, but I wonder if this is really in line with the times.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

When compared to the glide that leaves too little of an impression, which one is better…

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like Icarus and Hermes, but I don’t like that they have this appearance all the way to Ultimate.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it might be acceptable now, considering even Gundam has become more rounded, but I believe it was too early during the PS2 era.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

It looks like something from the Gaia or Shadow series.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

It doesn’t really look like a power-up form.

It seems like a mode change.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like the concept of being able to choose performance for each part.

Increase the variety and make the performance a bit more extreme.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like that it clearly changes the silhouette compared to before.

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It looks more like a new Mega Man, like an EXE, rather than armor because it’s too simplistic.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

It would be nice if there were more cool mech men with armor designs like this.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Hermes in the thread image is still blue, but the others aren’t even blue at all.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

The body armor that doesn’t reduce the red gauge of HP is completely ruining the balance.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

Honestly, the legs and head had some relatively simple designs from previous generations as well.

I feel like the roundness of the shoulders is contributing to a somewhat poor impression.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s fine if it’s just one of several options…
