RE: Running the Mega Man X Marathon: Beating the game in less than three hours [ENG/ESP]

Looks so fun, especially playing with achievements. I watched you take down a couple of bosses. Will you play again for the rest of the achievements? Some of those must be really hard to get...right?

Fun with RetroAchievements? Absolutely, and also double as bookmarks of progress I've made in a game.

That some of those are hard? Indeed.

Beyond that one achievement of going through the entirety of Sigma Stage 3 with only the buster and no healing, there's a few other full completion cheevos such as

  • "Beat the game without the Body upgrade" (doable, but su tanks will be needed lol)
  • "Beat the game with only the buster used" (Harder than it sounds- not just due to the boss rematches but also because of Sigma - even with subtank)
  • "Beat the game with no armor, health upgrades and subtanks" (Better practice boss patterns and Sigma, cause your weapons will be your only saving grace...and comments weren't lying- Wolf Sigma kills you in two touches at full heakth in this scenario...)
  • "Beat the game without dying once" (Can be strategized with upgrades, charged Rolling Shield for a shield in some stages, and going for Hadoken can take time but is seemingly doable...but you'll have the nerves at max at all times)

...Yeah, no. At most maybe the no Body or deathless runs if I'm feeling bold, but if I decide to retry this game, at most it will be for the no damage boss achievements (which can be done with the weapons).

But who knows.

Thanks for reading and for your comment :D
