MegaMan's Current Status

I'm going to talk about something different to today. I've been a huge MegaMan fan for years. Who doesn't love the blue bomber? He's blue, cool, and a robotic hero. Lately MegaMan hasn't been very active. It appears Capcom has some a lot of faith in the franchise. How did this happen?

This all began when MegaMan Legends 3 was canceled. Many fans felt cheated. Capcom displayed a upcoming trailer for the game. They made a message board for fans to summit ideas to. MegaMan fans were very excited for the game. Everything turned upside down when the game was canceled. Soon afterwards MegaMan Universe for the Wii was canceled.

There was some speculation that Capcom canceled these games because MegaMan's creator Keiji Inafune left the company on bad terms. In response to Capcom's decisions the fans were very angry. They spent their time and energy on the message boards. They were extremely excited for the upcoming games. Some fans felt like Capcom lied to them. While others believed Capcom wanted to sale MegaMan rights to another gaming company.

2012 has not been a great year Megaman. There are no current games in development. Capcom did not reveal anything at E3.

A lot of fans are begging for a MegaMan X9. I don't see this happening in the near future. MegaMan X8 was a total bust. The game did not sale well. It only sold 38,000 copies. I personally thought it was a good game. It just was not promoted very well. It did not receive very good reviews. Capcom most likely does not believe MegaMan X9 is worth the finical risk.

MegaMan's 25th anniversary is coming up in December. 2013 may be a big year for MegaMan. I think the franchise really needs it. I hope there will be at least one game made in 2013. Only time will tell if MegaMan will regain the video game spotlight.

Please post your comments and concerns. What do you think the future holds for MegaMan? Will 2013 be a good year for him?

New Dark Chaos Introduction!

I made a new introduction for Dark Chaos! My original introduction was very boring. The screen was completely black with text. That's not going to excite anyone. I decided I needed to spice it up. The new introduction isn't perfect. It is a vast improvement.

The new introduction may not be set in stone. I'm still thinking about making some changes in the future. Please stay tune for any future introductions.

See the new and old videos below!

Introducing Jayden

Everyone please welcome Jayden to the Dark Chaos cast. I randomly created her character while making the demo. I wanted to make the demo longer and I needed to add some new story. Jayden wasn't in the original Dark Chaos demo that was released two years ago. She wasn't a character at the time. I thought about adding a twist to the story. I think she is a perfect fit!

In my opinion there aren't enough female RPG characters. It is important to have characters with different backgrounds and experience. I want to make the party sex and gender balanced. I don't want one particular sex having more authority in the party than the opposite sex.

Here is a short preview video featuring Jayden!

Please post comments about what you think about Jayden and the cut scene! Do you think she is a good character for the story? Every comment counts. Don't be afraid to say what is on your mind. The game is still in its early development stages.
