「ロックマンX DiVE」Rockman X DiVE — Rock Volnutt and Tron Bonne’s Model Showcase
Before that event started, DASH was at the very bottom of my favorite Rockman series list (with the most favorite being X-series, right next to Zero-series since I can’t say that the only finished series will be worse than that one series that had the saddest and craziest fate after X5. Just a personal preference and I know less about Zero-series, I’m sorry). Right next to Ryuusei no Rockman since I know nothing about it besides the fact it would be more connected to .EXE if 4th game came out. Guess that one ended too soon before making others care about it at least a little. I would love to see a Rockman turning on a sketchy side of a spectum, teaming up with Hikari Netto’s descendant and doing some hacker stuff. That would be awesome.
And don’t throw rocks (ha-ha) at me. I just never understood what the appeal of DASH was and... Ryuusei is just so far from everything Rockman aside from this series’ Rockman, his Denpa partner Warrock (or Omega-Xis in localization that connects this Denpa to X and not Rockmen in general, i think), canceled 4th game and a timeline\canon. Ryuusei’s strenth, as I heard, is with Denpa themselfs (the way how they pick a partner, if I’m not mistaken) and the way how Cyberspace literally connects universes together (which will be talked about in Project X Zone after Ryuusei has ended).
...I did a rant about me not knowing anything about Ryuusei and trying to see its potential without even playing the game. And I didn’t even noticed I did so. Sorry.
My problem with DASH is that... it’s really hard for me to understand who is Decoy (Carbon) and who is Human aside from select few, as well as “adult magazine“ item in every single game that made me question if people like it because it might be something perverted that I haven’t really seen from some of gameplay videos. I’m not joking, that was my problem. And I also didn’t like Volnutt at all since I thought he, like Zero, was so distant from other Rockmen, but in a different way... because I’ve seen people playing the game with negative ethics... and with japanese version being even more bruthal than localization.
When teaser for this event dropped, I was like “Oh MAN, not THAT soon, COME ON!“, but I calmed down, sit down and started to read about series’ set up and Volnutt.
I’m actually not that angry now because nasty stuff in the game usually happens when you’re acting bad, which is a nice penalty for making someone with Rockman status akting like an absolute douche to everyone around... although I still don’t like that quiz girls in DASH2 ask questions which break the 4th wall really hard. I was able to understand why people like it, however I can say that I’m more interested in exploring this “Old, yet diffrent and unfamiliar“ world and HEAVEN in general than characters, although Roll and The Bonnes are fun. So, yeah, Ryuusei is the only at the very bottom right now. Once I’ll get to know that seventh series better, bottom of the list will be empty. I really want to like all series equally.
...Where was I? What is this video even?
Just showing of new peeps’ models, I guess. Update is coming, I swear.
