Mega Man (the 8th game)

Mega Man, known as Rockman (ロックマン Rokkuman) is the common protagonist of the Classic Mega Man series. In 1996 when Mega Man 8 came out, he was somewhat butchered.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) First off, he's extremely out-of-character in this game. Compared to the other games where he's a friendly robot with a brave and noble attitude, Mega Man has become a cowardly crybaby in this game.
 * 2) He likes to overreact about fighting people a lot, even though he fought in the past seven games.
 * 3) He also mistakes Bass as a friend when he's clearly a villain.
 * 4) His English voice is very grating.
 * 5) His infamous scream is also very annoying, and you have to listen to believe what we're talking about.

Good Qualities

 * 1) To be fair, Mega Man is a likable protagonist in MM1-MM7, and becomes likable again in MM9-MM11.
 * 2) He did redeem himself and get better later on in the game.
 * 3) He still has his kindhearted demeanor as usual.
 * 4) Ai Orikasa does a great job voicing him.
 * 5) At least he didn't cause Mega Man 8 to be a bad game, the game was still good despite his flanderization anyway.
