In my Mega Man 2 video, I start by talking about difficulty selection options for about 13 minutes. ... I really hope that doesn't turn off a huge portion of the audience. :-/ Video is shaping up to likely be 3 hours so... uhh... I guess it's only a fraction of the whole video.

Realizing I use this site less and less. If you want to follow me, I use BlueSky far more frequently. Same username. TY. 🙌

Officially the longest video I've ever made: A 3 1/2 hour long in depth design analysis of Mega Man 2: youtu.be/t9D2QPqndzE

ロックマンのゲーム設計は複雑です。そしてそれまでのアクションゲームにはなかった設定が多くあります。そのために今までと同じようなレベルデザインでは矛盾が生じることがありました。しかし最初は自分のアイデアにも関わらずそのことがしっかりと理解できていませんでした。(1)

ロックマン２では前半の選択ステージの考え方を変えました。それぞれの特徴を難易度の種類ではなく遊びの種類にしたのです。ユーザーのプレイスタイルは様々で好みもあります。そのユーザーの好き嫌いをステージの違いに取り入れたのです(3)

Found this old script... If I have time, maybe I'll finish it.

Looking at Mega Man 3! youtu.be/B2b_d4iiCOc

I'm thinking I might unlist some of my Let's Play series, and reupload them to my DaveControlPlay channel. Not for views (I'll also link back to the original videos on those) - but so if someone goes to the main channel and clicks on my videos, it won't drown out everything else.

New Mega Man 4 video in case you missed it! youtu.be/WJcw_RduifI I also uploaded an Elden Ring lore video, but there was a minor missing VO error, so I took it down and am in the process of reuploading. Thanks everyone! :)

Mega Man 8 Design Retrospective is still in the works. Taking a lot longer than I was hoping, but I'm slowly chipping away at it. I have over an hour fully edited, and even more written. Sorry it's taking so long, but it's coming together!
