Though its not the classic Mega Man we all know and love, it is a very good design with very little to dislike...other than the fact that this isn't a "true" Mega Man game.
Para mí, un buen juego, fresco para el nombre de Megaman, creo que megaman como franquicia le sirve adentrarse a otro géneros ademas de las plataformas, mientras lo hagan bien como esta saga de juegos (Battle Network), es bienvenido. Buen sistema de RPG de acción, con varios "colleccionables" para hacer las estrategias que uno mas se acople, historia sencilla, pero muy bueno divertido y entretenido.
Great! a fresh idea, and a well executed one. it's fun to play, the RPG elements are very nice, and while tough the plot is really nothing special, it does it's job pretty well. Music is also very good. Overall is very solid, play it.
Although the game features a lot of action sequences, it’s really an RPG at heart. However, what makes this game unique is the battle system. It combines a turn based fighting system with a real time one. Did that make sense to anyone?
This radical departure adds a level of depth to the series as a whole - MM fans should pick it up out of loyalty - anyone who's not a hardcore fan should let this one settle back into the big blue.
Mega Man games are always interesting in the fact they take a concept and run with it for several games to see how it works and just kinda make a franchise out of it. Mega Man Battle Network being a lot of people's introduction to Mega Man, really helps establish it's own type of gameplay and world that honestly I think other Mega Man games would envy. With classic being very based and simple, the X series being more dark and gritty, and even the legends series being more cheerful and full of adventure, each Mega Man game before Battle Network really helped establish it's own tone for their respect franchise, within said franchise. What is perhaps more interesting about Battle Network despite it's gameplay being widely different, is how it manages to have a lot of the same tones of all the previous Mega Man games and just make it work. Battle Network honestly has some darker themes that are hidden in it's cheery nature, but largely it works because how well the world gets established. The enemies in Battle Network are colorful and cool looking, but often you see exactly how much they effect the real world, and honestly really helps with the stake being so high. It's a little jarring to see Lan, as a 5th grader, take on a whole terrorist organization, but ultimately it's written well enough to not be too out there. All the characters are a good baseline for the start of the franchise, and the gameplay is even better when it comes to being built on. While a lot of the game takes getting used to, and trying to figure out how to optimize everything will take a while, it at least has enough there to feel refreshing and rewarding for the time you put into this game. There are some problems with directions though, and often if you misinterpret or do things in the incorrect order the game won't tell what to do next. It's not enough to ruin the game, but it happens a lot more often than it should, and with the way the game looks with it's isometric view doesn't do it any favors. Overall Mega Man Battle Network is a great start to a franchise, and one I'm happy to have played.
It's the beginning of the series so it isn't super complex and the net can be kind of confusing at times but it's very easy to revisit and I feel like it holds up well. PvP in this one boils down to running an L deck and pressing a faster than the other guy can. It's fun though.
Battle Network is a great rpg and has great gameplay and is memorable. The game doesn't get to repetitive, and the game is a bit annoying but overall this game is great!
