What's so bad about RPGs?

That came out wrong... MegaMan is typically a platformer, but not this game. I didn't mean there was something wrong with RPGs.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Yeah, but even the Battle Network series had a platformer installment.  tongue


I don't know what this guy's problem with MM is. The rock-paper-siccors style of stage selection maybe? I personally liked that. It gave a sense of strategy to it.
