Little doodle of Rock and X getting coffee. Considering how much crap the little guy goes through I think he deserves a black coffee

Okay Hear Me Out Guys

I love that the shades you put on Mega Man look like Rockman Shadow's shades.

Oh, wow… Thanks, but to be completely honest, I didn’t even realize lol

But that is a neat coincidence!

Actually, I based Rock's visor off of this box art for Megaman 10…

…and the visor design for Megaman in @miserymet’s comic Megaman Manufactured, which inspired SS!Rock having the visor to begin with (screenshot taken from the comic itself; I recommend reading it, it’s pretty cool)

But again, that is one neat coincidence!

Thanks for the question/comment, @chirin-chironup!

I wanted to write a serious analysis post to prove that I have shit to say but I'm too tired so here's some hcs about their uni days before I log off for the night:

> light struggled with forming friendships prior to meeting wily. I think despite being affable, most people tended to like him on a surface level and as a result he never really felt understood or valued in any of his relationships (I also think he could be somewhere on the autism spectrum and masks whenever he's not working, but maybe I'm just projecting lol)

> light reached out to wily first, due to recognising their shared passion. I think part of the appeal could've also been in how wily didn't look up to light as obviously as everyone else, which, to light, made him more approachable

> wily was very averse to light's friendship initially. at this point, his chronic inferiority complex was in full swing, prompting him to pick out the "best" student in his course (light) and treat them as a rival. in his mind, light's attempts to befriend him were a form of mockery, an attempt to make the one person who saw through him fold. this was compounded by the fact that deep down, wily did in fact regard light with the same sort of reverence as everyone else, he just diluted it with bitter envy and hatred.

> eventually, wily accepted light's friendship on the internal grounds that it'd be easier for him to gain influence whilst working with light rather than against him

> wily spent the better part of this friendship (begrudgingly) (semi-consciously) pining; I like to think that he was extremely territorial of his friendship with light whilst simultaneously resenting his kindness; this, combined with feelings that ranged from "this guy isn't the worst... at least he understands what I'm getting at" (<- horrifically in love) to "someone needs to fucking kill this guy and it'll be ME" led to a lot of internal push-and-pull on his behalf. light was vaguely aware that something was up, but 1) didn't know how to broach the topic 2) figured wily would be able to sort it out himself. this would obviously bite him in the ass later, but in his defense I don't think wily would be open to the idea of an emotionally honest conversation even if light tried

hello, if i may join in on the character ask thingy, may i request mmx zero? (idk how much you know about that series, but just thought i would shoot my shot, also your art is a treat to see :D)

My unfocused self misread your question and I thought you said MMZ somehow, so here we go, you got two Zeros. (It's the same guy)

Send Me a Character

And I will tell you my:

First impression Following my deep dive into the Classic series, I would simultaneously check out the X series. So I'm actually fairly familiar with a good chunk of the characters there, especially X and Zero.

For those who have tracked me down here from the Deviantart days, you'd see I worked greatly on Classic and X prior to delving more personally into Battle Network (as I should've been in the first place).

Zero's design is a bit busier than X's, but I still find parts of it to be appealing. And I made it a very known fact my kiddo's hair is derived from his. So I am not immune to the pretty locks either. ^^;

I was also intrigued with his backstory and character. You may notice a big theme I like to work with in this series is "family", especially since it typically involves unconventional ones that aren't quite related by blood (they're robots, but also Zero's case is complicated). So not only did I find it interesting to depict a disconnect of Zero from his "roots", but he also finds some connection in X's side. Maybe not from everyone, but at least Dr. Light tries to understand him, even in-game.

And of course, I love seeing his dynamic with X, even when it's the very simple interactions. They compliment each other so well, especially since they don't quite fit in anywhere else.

I also like that Zero's VA gave him such a unique voice, the tone Mr. Gilbertson uses sounds so pleasant in my ears.

Impression now I still think Zero is appealing, and nothing much has changed there. But I don't think you can make me choose between him or his buddy.

I am aware of his great bias in the community for how overshadowingly cool he is, but I'll take him over the other Ryoutarou Okiayu character that does virtually the same thing elsewhere. Maybe it's because he's a robot, and I have a soft spot for them.

Favorite moment He and X get called "cute" in PxZ2 and that guy got cranky about it. Though, Zero didn't quite deny it in his response either.

"We may look cute, lady. But..." Yes that's because you two are.

Idea for a story A lot of people, me included, seem to agree that Zero and Roll could get along well. But wouldn't you wanna be on good terms with your best friend's older sister? Anywho, I have a few lighthearted ideas where the two would hangout, one of which involves working together to get something for X's birthday.

After all, wouldn't your best friend's older sister probably know what he wants the most?

Unpopular opinion I would pick MMX Zero over MMZ Zero any day. I don't think the story or atmosphere of the Zero series is bad, not at all! The premise and everything is a very unique turn in the franchise. However, it's just not my thing personally. Maybe other people ruined it for me.

Favorite relationship Take a look at the years upon years of art I have of this guy (and half the things I said here) and I think it'd be obvious. L(///L )

Favorite headcanon This is partly a friend's fault, but Zero's favorite spot is X's right shoulder. He'll get a little protective over it.

I am so looking forward to this. As a Roll fan and that I run a meme page on Facebook based around Roll, I'm pretty hyped. I hope Kalinka makes an appearance but I know you're working on the engine which honestly makes a lot of sense. Since I'm in school (Nursing hehe like Roll though that was a coincidence) now, I have time to wait. So looking forward to playing this.

Question is she going to be ranged like Mega Man or is she going to be melee like in Powered Up?

Awesome! I admit I don't really have any Kalinka appearances planned, but that was mostly because I hadn't thought about it...if I can find a place to fit her in, I'd like to at least try.

And yeah, waiting is definitely a thing, though I'm done enough that I'm very slowly getting started on creating actual playable content. Stage design is tougher than it looks, but so far pretty fun.

That's a good question, though. Roll will be largely ranged. I am planning on having some of the weapons she acquires do different things like mobility or melee, so there's going to be some variety in that, but generally speaking she'll play like Mega Man for this game. I know different games like to give her different abilities, like you mentioned and like Rock 'N Roll's double jump, but eeh, I decided to keep it fairly close to classic. If she's got anything different it'll be via acquired weapons. (Subject to change if anything really crazy happens, but I pretty much have the weapon system nailed down in the engine, so I don't expect anything much to change on that front.)
