It looks like my main issue with the megaman series (x in particular) definitely looks to have continued in this game: too high a difficulty curve compared to earlier games. I understand people do get better at these things over time, but there's got to be a limit. Lining both the floor and ceiling with killing spikes (like in the prison stage) just seems like a dick move rather than extra challenge.
I can't figure out whether I like Mighty No 9. PR disasters aside (which admittedly make it veerrrry hard for me to like this), I liked the story in the megaman games and this is just different enough that I wonder if I should bother. I guess I should just wait until it comes out and some modder releases a pack that completely replaces all the characters and their names in the dialogue with the proper megaman analogs.
Also, it still has a lives system. Did no one learn from the recent rayman games?
EDIT: What the hell is with those absurdly long loading times, too? I get that it's an early build, but still...
