  • @jud6ment
    You forgot when megaman, with his revived past robot masters he defeated, formed a soccer team. That was his greatest adventure by far.
  • @Deathaxle
    As a kid: Wily is a jealous old coot and Light is robo Santa As an adult: They both caused the destruction and near extinction of the planet.
  • @PFSnypr
    So this all happened cause some guy got mad at his friend
  • @sometwo7429
    The classic megaman series just feels like an prologue to the timeline
  • Dr Light: creates robots to give Humanity prosperity and peace the entrire franchise: SO YOU HAVE CHOSEN W A R
  • @TKM20XX
    "Mega Man Legends 3 was cancelled like 10 years ago" IT HURTS. OH GOD. IT HURTS.
  • @imunoriginal382
    This whole franchise really feels like Zero is the main protagonist
  • @Saintbow
    Konami: "Think we made Castlevania confusing?" Capcom: "Hold my sake"
  • @jackspedicy
    Megaman zero was the first megaman series I got into and it’s probably the darkest one compared to the others
  • @Mr-ri3ig
    Yes, give me that megaman battle Network and Storforce goodies!
  • Look at all the near extinction events that happened through the centuries, no millennias because of two robotic scientist rivalry.
  • This entire series after X came to be turned into: "so did you destroy everything?" Yeah "And did you evaporate everything after you destroyed it?" Yeah "Even the screws and fragments?" Well not really, I got rid of the problem tho And then a single screw left behind becomes a super weapon
  • I loved Mega Man X back in the day. It never occurred to me how rich and insidious the lore of Mega Man was until I listened to this timeline.
  • @rnr7930
    4:00 I didn’t know I needed this until now. Down with doctor wiwee
  • @GS-hz4yv
    “Capcom gives Megaman the respect he deserves.” * mmx7 appears on screen * “Or not.” *WHEEZE*
  • @CrossTrash
    As someone who knows way too much about megaman. This was great video that summed up the megaman timeline perfectly! I hope this helps more people get into the series so we can finally get the fabled megaman legends 3.
  • This all makes a lot more sense to me hearing you explain it than when I was playing the games. I would love to see a Megaman Battle Network Series video. I always sort of thought that they were sort of like prequels, like maybe the internet programs gave light and Wily their ideas or something. Either way, it would be great to relive the series (especially if we somehow forgot that starforce ever happened). Those were truly some of my favorite games of all time.
