An improvement from the original, with a more tender approach and better replay value. However, stage 4 going into the final boss is a broken nightmare.
I enjoyed the variety of levels in this one visually and aesthetically more than the first. Hell it even knocks the 1st game down a peg with how much more polished this one felt.
It’s also easier for someone like myself who’s not an avid MM fan and has only gotten their feet wet with the X series.
It’s safe to say this is the best one so far, since it’s just a better looking game. But the Boobeam Trap section sucks eggs hard, due to the backtracking it caused for me. It doesn’t feel like a slap on the wrist, it just feels like padded design that is specifically created in order to make you fail and restart to nail your precision.
Sometimes, I don’t mind that. A game like this though that is quite challenging at times. It doesn’t help its score. Overall, Mega Man 2 is fun and one I’d revisit!
