There are certain changes here and there to the level design to give her more of a chance, but there's no way she can just do basic weapon only runs against most of these bosses.Ī fine addition to MN9 if you enjoyed playing it, but if you didn't, it's not going to sell you on the game. She has to go get some weakness weapons first. Her melee attack will leave her completely at the mercy of the sword or ice bosses who can attack for free at melee range. Ray simply can't do the stages in any order. Before long, you're dashing through hordes of robots, tearing them to shreds like a screaming monster bot.
Yes, Yacht Club made more concessions to make Plague work, but still.). It's a new way to play MN9, and, like Zero back in MMX2 or 3 or whatever, the game wasn't really designed for it but it's still fun and forces you to adapt quite well (Let's be honest, Shovel Knight wasn't designed for Plague Knight, and that was still tremendous fun. But she's a red, raging, screaming, melee focused monster robot whose health is constantly bleeding it. Then you unlock the ability to play through all of Beck's levels with Ray instead. If you prefer the game to not be quite so hard though, then I would suggest sticking with Beck, as he is much more casual playthrough friendly.įirst, you get an extra level for Beck where you fight Ray. Overall, if you enjoy playing action platformers with melee characters that have a high skill floor and ceiling, then I think you will enjoy her. I definitely don't see myself 1 attempting all the bosses as I am now. I've been considering trying out speed running as her, but I will still need to master the game a bit more before I can do that. She may not be quite as fun to play as Zero in X4 for example, but she is a lot of fun once you get the hang of her. She can go through stages very quickly, slicing and dicing enemies, largely because her dash is a pretty powerful attack. However, once you do this, Ray feels very rewarding to play as. This makes Ray very fragile if she hasn't absorbed xels in a while, making her a very difficult character to play at times.īecause of this mechanic, you need have the boss patterns memorized, and be capable of playing around them correctly nearly every time.
However, if you take damage, then all of the drained health will be subtracted for real, in addition to the damage being dealt. I say kind of, because that health can be regained by killing an enemy, and you cannot die from draining. In case you don't know, Ray starts to kind of lose health after 1-2 seconds of not killing an enemy/absorbing a bosses xels mid fight (when they turn purple and you dash into them). I had already heard about her bleeding mechanic. After finishing the main story wtih Beck, I purchased the Ray DLC to try her out.
