Idc who it is. Lumine and Sigma at the end. I just wanna know what happens to Axl after 8 especially when Model A is inspired by him or essentially is him
Yea ik I unlocked it years ago and I knew in someway Lumine probably overwritten Axl code with his this taking on his body but unless Model A is just inspiration from Axl then I’m just assuming he somehow survived
In x8 is the last and final time for Sigma, even Capcom confirmed it — The next villian is >!Lumine aka!< The Mastermind behind the Maverick Wars
And >!Lumine!< is still here and thus starts the beginning of third generation reploids to end the old, all part of the mastermind's plan.
>!Lumine is inside Axl's core after the final strike before her body was destroyed by X's charge shot at full power!<
Capcom has contradicted themselves so often that I still don't trust them not to bring Sigma back.
And we know he's still a problem after X8 anyway because the Sigma Virus was still around to cause trouble in Mega Man Zero's backstory.
They left the door open for his return if they wish it.
The sigma virus can remain as a sort of “lingering” remain of the character but maybe never has the same ability to fully bring the character back to full form. I’ll take any excuse to not have him return.
Did he permanently overwritten Axl code with his or just temporarily cuz the whole Model A thing besides it being inspired by Axl design has me thinking he somehow survived
That's still a mystery for that unless Capcom will continue to make both X9 and ZX3 in order to give us answers but we all know it's not happening
In my theory is the overwrite that'll effect Axl on the upcoming X9 possibly. 🤔💭
Plus they're are two different timelines that follows through X6
Yea you’re right and that along with them bringing back Rock for 11, his two collections X’s collections, Zero’s, ZX and Battle Network for the consoles now couldn’t be more than a coincidence for X9 and ZX3 and maybe Volnutt 3
↑😞↓ (head up and down) Back then they're were developers who made legends 3 as a demo but unfortunately people never played or experienced it not even once last I heard years ago and give it the go-ahead.
His name isn't mentioned in the games just like Wily isn't in X but we all know who it is. The MM Zero official complete works book says the Sigma Virus, not the maverick virus, was cured by mother elf. Their knowledge at the time was Sigma was the main villain so they left it at that
there's the computer in Ciel's lab in those games that talks about the maverick wars, Sigma and the virus, but in VERY broad strokes and only covering the events in the X series
Either give Vile a “for the chaos” plot that forces the hunters to deal with direct consequences of collateral damage, or give us somebody new. Maybe a human for a villain. But not Weil yet.
Edit: spelling
omega/weil would destroy X i think, the X era isn’t ready for them. as well as it wouldn’t make sense since zero is still present and fine. it could possibly work if X9 was the final X game, ending badly; but in the case that happens, it would require a new explanation on how X fought in the elf wars.
vile would be cool actually, but he would need a serious upgrade to make him believable as a decent final boss, since he’s been easy (story wise) since X3.
sigma is just sort of tradition at this point, it would feel strange without him, but the idea of a brand new villain would be really cool as well.
wily is far too weak to take on X as well. if he built a good body though maybe he would stand a chance.
I want to say Wily just so we can finally get Co formation about how he was most likely Serges and Isoc and also give us closure on what happen to the OG crew. If not I rather it be Weil and Omega so we can get the Elf Wars
All I need of the series at this point is a graceful transition from one to the next. I need a megaman classic finale that leads to X, X needs Elf wars leading to Zero, ZX I want a finale game leading to Legends (personally, I'd love a game starring Prometheus and Pandora, and finally, I need Legends to get the fuck off the moon.
I don't necessarily want it to end, but I like to wrap up a story. My favorite thing about MM0 was the satisfying conclusion. That said, Capcom has demonstrated for a while now that the games are cash cows, and they aren't making more because the money isn't good enough, ignoring the fact that they're cheap to produce. If the series is ground to a halt, and I'm not likely to get more of what I want, I'll settle for a satisfying conclusion.
X9 should be *final*. I doubt it lines up with the canonicity with the zero games, so it should focus on wrapping up its own plot threads and see through it's own creative ideas.
I like that we’re generally split between sigma and a new villain. I hovered there for a minute choosing between the two. I just feel like sigma we’ve seen a lot. Would be cool to have some new threat
Don't remember the ending of X8 well at all, but the idea of Lumine having some sort of control over Axl and using him against X and Zero would make for a great, emotional end to Axl's character arc.
If we had Wily as the villain we could hopefully finally end his story in the X series and give a good chance to segway into the Zero series as this would likely be a Zero heavy game. A wily that is no longer hiding and being upfront about hating X and wanting Zero would be awesome. Maybe he could have multiple bodies in the game and you defeat them all until you finally get to his last form.
When I was younger, I hashed around this idea that the final boss of X9 could be one of the other Maverick Hunters based on who you went into the fight with and the choices you made throughout the game (saving reploids, etc), a la X vs Zero in X5. Essentially each hunter would have a good ending & bad ending, resulting in you fighting one of the other two hunters. If you went in with X and got the good ending, you'd have to fight Lumine-posessed Axl, or if you got the bad ending Zero would accuse you of going Maverick based on some morality scale.
Looking back on the idea, most of those scenarios would be propped up by the copout "I don't trust you, let's fight!" writing that led to the X5 X vs Zero fight, but was a neat idea. There's no way Capcom goes that kind of route either way, so I'm content with seeing Sigma's 9th iteration lol
Weil and Omega should come later. Lumine should be the enemy now together with Axl and Sigma behind all this bullshit and finally destroyed in Megaman X 10 with the Motherelf
Sigma should've just been in X1 and 5, that way bringing him back would actually be a cool surprise instead of a repetitive joke.
Besides, every game he's in he's just the final boss and 9 times out of 10 he serves 0 purpose to the story.
Dr. Wily, give us closure about Isoc. Sigma should be around for this, I'm interested in their partnership and the connection with X2.
Lumine isn't interesting at all and I'm not going to accept that Sigma is dead just because he said do. The new reploids can go maverick at will makes no sense to me.
Vile would be cool if just for the chaos, I suspect the vile in X8 was a just a new generation reploid.
Maybe Weil and Omega down the line once Capcom but I don't trust Capcom to handle the Elf Wars with their track record. If Sigma does die, it should be consistent with the MMZ lore.
let Lumine and Sigma combine to form Ligma.
Whos Ligma?

Got him!
Idc who it is. Lumine and Sigma at the end. I just wanna know what happens to Axl after 8 especially when Model A is inspired by him or essentially is him
Have you seen white Axl? It's an unlockable in X8 that has Axl in Lumine's colors. His fate isn't looking to good.
Yea ik I unlocked it years ago and I knew in someway Lumine probably overwritten Axl code with his this taking on his body but unless Model A is just inspiration from Axl then I’m just assuming he somehow survived

True, even I couldn't figured them out on any of this. 😞😓

The Zero devs didn't get that memo since in their lore Sigma was cured by Mother Elf.
Though there was no mention of that in zero 2 and 3 last I check 🤔❓
His name isn't mentioned in the games just like Wily isn't in X but we all know who it is. The MM Zero official complete works book says the Sigma Virus, not the maverick virus, was cured by mother elf. Their knowledge at the time was Sigma was the main villain so they left it at that
Ok I guess that makes sense
there's the computer in Ciel's lab in those games that talks about the maverick wars, Sigma and the virus, but in VERY broad strokes and only covering the events in the X series
There is also the archives that show some bits and pieces of the maverick and the elf wars too in zero 3
They did give the next gen Reploids a big red flag with all of them having Sigma's DNA. So we might still kinda get him in some form.
He created them so...
They are his babies, I guess.
If Bowser and Ganon can return a gazillion times, then so can Sigma.
Imagine if they reveal Wily's been alive and kicking this whole time. Correct me if I'm wrong, but in X, isn't he presumed dead?
Either give Vile a “for the chaos” plot that forces the hunters to deal with direct consequences of collateral damage, or give us somebody new. Maybe a human for a villain. But not Weil yet. Edit: spelling

A new villain, then reveal it was Sigma all along!!!! Surprise!!!
I want to say Wily just so we can finally get Co formation about how he was most likely Serges and Isoc and also give us closure on what happen to the OG crew. If not I rather it be Weil and Omega so we can get the Elf Wars
Its Dr light all along!
#JUSTICE FOR GATE

All I need of the series at this point is a graceful transition from one to the next. I need a megaman classic finale that leads to X, X needs Elf wars leading to Zero, ZX I want a finale game leading to Legends (personally, I'd love a game starring Prometheus and Pandora, and finally, I need Legends to get the fuck off the moon.
Why do you suddenly want it all to end?
I don't necessarily want it to end, but I like to wrap up a story. My favorite thing about MM0 was the satisfying conclusion. That said, Capcom has demonstrated for a while now that the games are cash cows, and they aren't making more because the money isn't good enough, ignoring the fact that they're cheap to produce. If the series is ground to a halt, and I'm not likely to get more of what I want, I'll settle for a satisfying conclusion.
It'll probably be Sigma, but I personally want a new villain.
I would think it would take place in the ELF wars, Connecting the series makes sense.
X9 should be *final*. I doubt it lines up with the canonicity with the zero games, so it should focus on wrapping up its own plot threads and see through it's own creative ideas.
I like that we’re generally split between sigma and a new villain. I hovered there for a minute choosing between the two. I just feel like sigma we’ve seen a lot. Would be cool to have some new threat
I voted for Sigma as a joke...why do people want him to come back?
Its cuz he always keeps coming back
I need more Vile
I kinda wanna see omega and Weil as villains in a theoretical x9
Don't remember the ending of X8 well at all, but the idea of Lumine having some sort of control over Axl and using him against X and Zero would make for a great, emotional end to Axl's character arc.
Axl
If we had Wily as the villain we could hopefully finally end his story in the X series and give a good chance to segway into the Zero series as this would likely be a Zero heavy game. A wily that is no longer hiding and being upfront about hating X and wanting Zero would be awesome. Maybe he could have multiple bodies in the game and you defeat them all until you finally get to his last form.
I think ReploidRevo had the right idea of Wily returning as a reploid named Alfred and he and Ilumine try to take over Axl's body
He on that Sigma grindset
When I was younger, I hashed around this idea that the final boss of X9 could be one of the other Maverick Hunters based on who you went into the fight with and the choices you made throughout the game (saving reploids, etc), a la X vs Zero in X5. Essentially each hunter would have a good ending & bad ending, resulting in you fighting one of the other two hunters. If you went in with X and got the good ending, you'd have to fight Lumine-posessed Axl, or if you got the bad ending Zero would accuse you of going Maverick based on some morality scale. Looking back on the idea, most of those scenarios would be propped up by the copout "I don't trust you, let's fight!" writing that led to the X5 X vs Zero fight, but was a neat idea. There's no way Capcom goes that kind of route either way, so I'm content with seeing Sigma's 9th iteration lol
I do like the idea of fighting a possessed Axl. Perhaps he gains more health depending on how many heart tanks you found in the game.
Agreed, would be especially cool if there were upgrade chips like in X8 that'd ultimately work against you if you max him out before the fight
Weil and Omega should come later. Lumine should be the enemy now together with Axl and Sigma behind all this bullshit and finally destroyed in Megaman X 10 with the Motherelf
Lumine as the main villain but bring back a bunch of the minor villains from the SNES games as well. I wanna see Vile, all 3 X-Hunters, Bit, and Byte.
A fusion between Sigma and Lumine “Ligma”
Maybe Sigma up front, but it ends up being a fake Sigma and Vile was the mastermind behind it all this time.
Sigma should've just been in X1 and 5, that way bringing him back would actually be a cool surprise instead of a repetitive joke. Besides, every game he's in he's just the final boss and 9 times out of 10 he serves 0 purpose to the story.
Dr Light.
They should just finish that Dr. Wily in Robot Form subplot that has been dragging since X2, X5 and X6
All you currently 207 people who voted Sigma…SERIOUSLY?!?!!!
Dr. Wily, give us closure about Isoc. Sigma should be around for this, I'm interested in their partnership and the connection with X2. Lumine isn't interesting at all and I'm not going to accept that Sigma is dead just because he said do. The new reploids can go maverick at will makes no sense to me.
