I’m not playing anything seriously. I played some Mega Man 10 yesterday but it was the barest sort of dabbling, which does not leave me with much to say about it. Well, there’s one thing I can say.

All my weapons blow.

I failed to clear Chill Man’s stage, wiping out with two deaths on the boss. It’s a stage with multiple sections that are tedious with the mega-buster. I’ve cleared Sheep, Pump and Solar at this point in my save, so that’s my arsenal.

Consider taking out an Octopus Battery that’s one block above the ground. Easy enough, but jumpy and slow with just the buster. The sort of thing I’d gladly blow weapon energy on to speed it up. None of those weapons are at all useful. I guess Solar Man’s jobby might save 1 jump, but it’s also slower firing, so that’s probably a wash.

At the same point in Mega Man 9, I’d be sporting the Splash, Gravity and Concrete weapons. All clearly better than the crap I’ve got, and two of which would speed up the Battery scenario.
