I haven't talked about Mega Man in... wow! A very long time! Today Theorists, we are going to remedy that! When I think of Mega Man, I tend to think of the amazing gameplay rather than any deep, overarching story. That was an oversight on my part as the lore within the Mega Man universe is CRAZY! Did you know that Mega Man will bring about the end of all human life? No? Well put on your helmets, we're digging deep into this franchise!

Lol
Lolwo
Did you play the X series, or the Zero series?
I’m a huge fan of the Mega Man franchise and I’ve known most of the plot for both timelines pretty well but I’ve never looked at how Wily’s actions from the classic series influenced the rest of the original timeline. But I’ve always seen Wiel is Wily but as some kind of clone.
“Today were talking about a franchise no one cares about” oof that hurt me on a different level
Same
Same man
Eh whatever game captain falcon came from would have been the more accurate
Hey at least we got Megaman 11
Eh, I’d say a decent ammount of people care
Little heads-up: It's been heavily implied that Wily's conciousness was digitalised and copied, and then was put on at least 2 Reploids, them being Serges from X2 and Isoc in X6. So when Sigma says "I met an old man who knows a lot about you" he might actually have met Wily in a different body, under a different name. Like Serges, who was working for Sigma as a X Hunter.
Do I know you? Your name is so familiar.... Vinesauce watcher?
Why have only one backup plan when you can have 5 instead?
Came here to comment exactly this. This needs more likes.
@@masemunejm Yep, I try to comment there as much as I can, mostly on Joel's channel though
Not to mention he was basically torturing Zero with memories and messages in X4 and 5 Had zero not been so conflicted with what he was seeing in "dreams" he might not have been so closed off after killing iris, in X5 and X8 u can see he's still broken up about it, in X5, he wouldn't have offered to STAY dead(an act that did little to nothing besides mess X up and make him more adverse to fighting, which we see in X7) and maybe wouldve come up with an idea for the mother elf much sooner than he did It also caused him to not care too much about Layer, which, although it was small, Zero wouldve hopped down sooner if he wasn't beating himself up over iris death(sumn sigma, and basically wily caused). Wily cockblocked his own son😂😂
I mean you gotta respect it, Wily is the original "I'm about to destroy this man's whole career." They say when you dig a grave for revenge you should dig 2, wily said I'ma take it a step further.
Instead of digging two, he dug billions of graves
@@Marcelelias11 More like half the planet with the Eurasia space colony...
@Vedansh Singh Lol "killing me will only make me more powerful than you can possibly imagine."
So the quote "A villain only needs one win. While a hero only needs to lose once." Really is Wily's life motto huh.
We’re is this quote from?
Yes. That's how winning and losing works.
@Vanswock isn't this from the "misfit of demon academy" series? 🤔
tbh wily's influence was gone after the mother elf eliminated all traces of the sigma virus, after this point wily's influence is no more everything that happened afterwards is just the world moving on.
@@metroidserver You mean the world destroying itself because someone copied what Wily did. even going as far as to have a name close to his.

Yeah, you can definitely count this as Wily's win when seeing it from the perspective that humans are wiped out, and that Zero outlasted X... But you could also see this as Dr.Light's win, if you instead see it from the perspective that humans and robots are finally living in harmony as the carbons, with there still being a Megaman out there to protect the peace.
Zero Indeed outlasted X But he always lived on rebelion with his creator Except when he was possesed by the virus.
I think I found out the real reason why the Simpsons don't age! kzhead.info/sun/iL2vlaiohHqijHA/bejne.html
Zero outlasted X, but he was also in stasis for at least a century when X was still active, technically making X older than Zero by about a century by the time X died in Zero 2. X effectively lived a longer life than Zero.
@@ziqi92 I wouldn't consider X to be dead until Zero3, but yeah, he had technically a longer life. But then again, it seems like the Wily Virus outlasted them both, since Mavericks seem to be an issue even as far as in the Legends era.... Although as far as we know the virus might have been long gone, and "maverick" may simply have changed its meaning to "criminal".
Taranov how unrelated😂

I love how Matt says that the KZhead algorithm doesn’t care about Mega man but when he makes a video on it the amount of views it gets is fairly high compared to other videos that came out soon after and right before
Its mega man!
Sigma is suitable for realizing Wily's ambitions, but not Wily's technical expertise. The X5 reference to an old man may refer to Wily's consciousness manifesting in Serges (and later Isoc.) Weil seems to be a copycat (which is on point for the Z series), but one could speculate that Wily's consciousness had eventually found a way to manipulate a human host unbeknownst to them.
Moral of the story: Be more careful when choosing your science partner for the project
moral of the story: Letting the ultra bad guy live is almost never the right choice.
Moral of the story: Don't go to school!
Moral of the story:If you don't want the human race extinct, don't bully smart people
True Moral of the story. Always treat your friend and partner with respect. Always try to help and care about their ideas. [Wily wouldn't have become evil if Dr. Light shared and worked together with him to combine their ideas instead of rejecting them for what he considered a better option (Megaman 11)]
Well yes that’s the true point though I wasn’t being that serious 😂 Nice insight
"The franchise no one cares about" C'mon Mat don't hurt my feelings like that
Lmao
Facts. The ones that do care care a lot. That stung man
Yup I have a 3DS version where it has up to five I think it was awesome and I finished mega man 2 once
Why care about a lame game like MegaMan when you can care about a much better game like UberDude.
Good joke
point of interest: In MML2 Megaman is a "purifier" unit meant to destroy "aberrant" units that went rogue. But in the original japanese they use the same word for aberrants that they did for mavericks. Which means even in the future the maverick virus is still hanging around and making reaverbots turn violent
This is my first time ever hearing the MegaMan story and I’m freaked out
It get much more complex than that.
If you're interested, PLEASE do more research. You can't just take factual information from a video attempting to persuade you. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just saying I already know the story and this vid even freaked me out. Getting the whole picture makes it better! :)
Try out the games most of this is either wrong or basic info
This is mostly comprised of reaches and complete misinterpretations, please disregard the Mega Man GT videos. They're laughably poor

at first glance, you would never ever think a cutesy series like Mega Man, a game targeted at children would be this dark and gritty, this series tackles such mature concepts, from radical terrorism to world wars to nuclear wars to corporate states and dictatorships, and finally the extinction of humanity, man what an awesome series.

cool gamer it is good u r subbed to 8bitryan
@HappyFace560 You are now, he said so.
In Legends I'm certain they wanted to kill the humans because the world became too overpopulated. The master thought because the carbons valued their limited life as opposed to the immortality that Eurasia (I think that's what it's called) provided, that it was important to preserve their rights to live. The master died because he was away from Eurasia too long and no longer desired the luxury Eurasia provided and wanted Trigger to disable the master system that the mother units Sara and Yuna were trying to protect. Juno was charged with monitoring Katelox island to ensure the proper amount of carbons lived on that island but it was overpopulated so he wanted to wipe them out since it would be easy enough to clone them. Zero was a catalyst to the virus probably in an effort to defeat Light's creations (X) which is supported by Zero's dream when Wily said he had a rivalry with Light. Zero is Wily's legacy not so much the virus because the virus made Zero stronger and in great amounts more violent. Light might have contributed more to the poor state of the world simply because Reploids of today are based off the template of X which birthed villains like Sigma although the term Reploids is a replica of humans/animals and not so much X in general. Zero is a major reason humans and reploids still exist because of the sacrifices he made to ensure the peace is kept between them. Even X adopted that state of mind when he sacrificed his body to seal the Dark Elf.
Zero is my Favourite Megaman Character, I like the fact that Wily learned from his past failures and had learned enough to create Zero: The Megaman Killer! And, in the end, WILY is the victor!

Honestly, I'm just happy to have someone talking about Megaman in general.
Rockman. His name is ROCKMAN.
Agreed
@@LUCKO2022 yea. And Mario is Jumpman
I know he seems so...... forgotten. The series seems faded away and it was nice to see something about the games
YES
The only problem with this theory- when exactly didn't Dr. Wily state he wanted to wipe out humanity? It always seemed he wanted to "Take Over the World", (as you noted the early virus caused Robot (Master)s to emulate), via Robots... Ruling over a dead world never seemed to his goal. So, how did he win- the series doesn't end with Wily (or his continuation) ruling over humanity, or even a world of robots/carbons- flipping the table doesn't mean you've won the game, just ended it.
No. He did win, at least for a period of time. Almost everything was destroyed by Dr.Wily by the end of mega man zero 4. Its only after several years that magaman zx takes place and thats when we even see proper civilization compared to the other games in the franchise.
My brain why
my thoughts exactly ,like taking over the world is not the same as wiping out humanity, and even then you cant rule the world if your dead
I think I have an answer. He want his will to to rule the world to continue but after going from host to host, the virus learns which caused a mutation to the programing. It shifted to destroy and conquer to just destroy everything that stands in the way. Or hits a dead end when there's one human left.
yeah but is conquering the world by taking humanity with him
Wiley is short for William Afton: - creates evil robots - becomes a virus - controls minds using said virus (Obv a joke btw)
If memory serves, X was put in hibernation to run countless simulations so as to always be able to make the correct moral choice in any decision. But he was awoken early by mistake, and used as the prototype for all other robots (Called “Reploids” because they replicated X). And Dr. Light’s capsules were hidden here and there to help X face future threats, which seemed to be abundant throughout the entire X series. So I’ve always wondered: Did X truly, really ever get out of hibernation? Or is he still in there, guided by an artificial Dr. Light? Could everything from the Wily Virus to the choice about preserving the Carbons be part of X’s moral training?
X was actually meant to be in the capsule for only 30 years but when Light died, was in there for a total of 100 years (70 years more than intended).

Afterthought. Wouldn't the "carbons" I'd the legends series ultimately be a different version of light's dream that humans and machines living peacefully together. The two literally became a new human/ reploid hybrid lifeform. This could've also been hinted at in the zero series with the old man robot and his story about his human love. Could "carbons" be result of such obstacles between human and reploid interactions. It would seem that wily got his wish, but lights dream ultimately did find a way to realise itself it would seem.
The carbons don't have nothing human in they, they are artificial beings made of bio steel, they are not "human x reploid" hybrids, they are artificial beings

Love Game theory talking about Mega man which is my favorite franchise, the theory is cool but it has some mistakes. -Saying that Willy putted his soul in a virus is very out there, I don´t think that´s the case. This theory also fails to mention Awakened Zero, if the virus transferred from Zero to sigma, then why Awakened Zero is a thing? Also Sigma acts nothing like Willy, their personalities are completely different. -In MMX5 Sigma does mention Willy and his W is behind some bosses like Zero and Shadow Devil, meaning that those are his creation, what it could be happening is that Willy made himself a hologram projection (either recorded messages or actually being alive in there), just like Dr. Light did.
You left out the Mega Man arcade game when you finish the game with Bass you see Willy showing off Zero long before that expo.

Horrific butterfly effect: Kinda like when a certain Austrian was rejected from art school...
I theorize that the reason he seemingly lucked out on so many attempts on his life has got to do with well-meaning time-travelers, and their conflict with prudent time-travelers who realize that while yes, a good deal of concentrated evil can be attributed to a single individual, and hypothetically saving the people of this planet a great deal of heart-ache in the process, nonetheless the chaotic rippling effect of actually going back in time to accomplish that feat ends up being moderately worse due to some kind of comparison between choosing the evil you know over the evil you don't. If time-travel is real, and humans can engage in it to some measured extent, I expect the time-police will have ordained a quasi-permanent bureau specifically to catch the numerous would-be temporal vigilantes who decide to forego the golden rule of time-travel, in the act of trying to change history with a single--_just single_--extrajudicial assassination.

@@lilaclemonarsenic Indeed.
@@netherwalker1762 there is a Rick and Morty episode where exactly this happens.
Zero is Wily’s creation, which is stated in X4. He got released early and he went crazy. Sigma almost killed him and he lost his memory
"You may not recognize me at first, but i can assure you, its still me" -Albert Wily 20xx
“Zero has never been confirmed to be created by Wily, but heavily implied.” Mega man X4: *Am I a joke to you!*
He even showed footage from the game that outright shows Wily is working on Zero.
Mega Man 2: The Power Battles is also asking this
yes why is he ignoring the cutscene oh and fnaf theory: michal afton and his sister were adopted
X4 is a joke
@@therunn3197 the english dub is a joke,the game is actually pretty good
9:30 MatPat, I highly, highly recommend you get in touch with Twitch from the channel ReploidRevo. He is an expert on all things Mega Man and can answer this question for you as well as pretty much any question pertaining to the franchise.
Yeah! Reploid Revo really got me into Megaman! His videos are great!
These two would be a dream come true. The most ambitious crossover in history.
This statement ended up being incredibly ironic. kzhead.info/sun/pZadXciianNsoYU/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/g9Gmnb2QaGlroXA/bejne.html
7:36 Um, X4 explicitly showed us that Wily created Zero. It was one of his flashbacks. Granted, Wily was covered in a silhouette, but it was the same voice actor and in Day of Sigma, the capsule Zero awakens from has the exact same makeup and structure of the evil Robot Masters Wily created. So, yeah, it was completely stated out right.
Please do megaman legends. + if they ever remade 1/2 and a new installment- I’d buy all of it including any/all dlcs. ❤
Man, the Willy, sure is improving at the same speed as a "shounen" protagonist, one-step backwards, three-steps forward.
Mate its Wily
Why is there an article before Wily
XD

I think I found out the real reason why the Simpsons don't age! kzhead.info/sun/iL2vlaiohHqijHA/bejne.html
Wha-
Nobody is going to click that link bud
@@olegtaranov5756 stop
I honestly don't care what everyone says MegaMan is awesome and is my childhood
What's really sad is we're going through the exact same thing in the real world right now. Two organizations are fighting against each other one trying to get rid of humans and the other trying to preserve them.
"Sigma is recycling Wiley's old plans as if..." ...the writers are out of ideas?
Nice one
Or to intentionally parallel the previous series in order to lure in the fanbase.
why not?
Nah the writer is actually pretty smart he had an entire storyline written out with a whole bunch of games spanning between classic to ZX series to that weird network one I dunno the name
@@kargy4101 Megaman Battle Network and Megaman Starforce are technically a separate timeline. In it, Dr.Light goes into internet research instead of robotics, but Wily is on the same course. Light still ends up revolutionizing the world, Wily still acts out. By the end of the Battle Network games though, Wily's finished. For the Starforce end of the timeline, the villains are all aliens if I remember correctly.
Mat: “Ain’t NOBODY seeing this video.” Wow he wasn’t kidding
Sad isn't it
I literally have been essentially telling my friends more or less the contents of this video when I explain the Megaman timeline, now I have this instead
Yep
Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppppppppppppppp
and i thought i was good at antagonizing both KZhead and the FTC. but mostly the FTC cause they started all this.
Honestly props for pronouncing Bass correctly
Who else saw Reploid Revo debunker buster on this video
Guysssss who else misses the "SUPER AMAZING END CARD TOURNAMENT!!!" Like lowkey how can we bring those back? How almost 1k likes I don't even know how but thanks
OGs remember that bro 😔
Those were the good days
Me to kid.
You watched some old episodes recently, didn't you?
man, good old day
"Last time, on Megaman Game Theory Discussions: *BLAME IT ALL ON DR. LIGHT* " (lolz) I think the title should actually read... "How Mega Man _Prolonged_ Humanity's Demise"

@@H1Y28 why did you had to say that out of the blue, no one really cares about the simpsons
That's what i was thinking. Had not be for megaman's efforts, what took 3000 years it would take, i don't know, one or two if wily succeded earlier
honestly humanity created its own death, from creating the first bot
Mega Man was my favorite video game as a child. I used to rent them for my Nintendo and beat them over the weekend. I played every one.
Anyone notice that at the end of Megaman 11, Dr. Wily uses speed gear. Not the robot he was using, but wily. And the speed gear can only be used on robots, so is wily a robot in megaman 11?
probably cyborg. but he did make dummy robots in case bass or rock try to end to him.
HE TALKED ABOUT ZX! SOMEONE KNOWS ZX IS A THING THAT EXISTS! HECK YEA
I still, one day, hope to find a way to play the sequel.
Love that series. Wish they would finish it....
ZX GANG RISE UP, WE’VE STILL GOT SOME RELEVANCY!
Indeed
You mean people didn't know that ZX existed?!
MatPat is like a kid who just wants to defend his fav villain and tells everybody why they're actually good xD
Please matpat heart this comment!
They’re
@@SteveLaw80 normal people would rage about that, i say i'm german and thank you for the help So thanks :)
@@clownocide2887 i hope matpat will heart your comment
It's all fun and games until his fav villain is doofensmirths
Honestly it still makes sense in X5 of Sigma was talking about Willy. Over on Dookieshed's theory video he mentions something Game theory missed that being a Maverick named Sergus in X2 who is theorized to be a body for Willy. He even laments over losing to a creation of Light who he shouldn't know and going without defeating the X hunters gives Sigma the ability to recreate Zero, meaning they had to have met
Just to clear things up on Megaman zero, the zero you played is not the original zero. You only have his skillsets and pure will. The original zero is controlled by mother elf and the doctor and you killed him which technically makes you original but not really
