Blaze Heatnix should have just been a slightly larger, flaming donut.

The first time I played this stage I was like "Really? Two of them?" "Wait? Three in a row! That's just lazy." "FOUR?! That's inexcusable. What the shit happened to this stage?" "FIVE!! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!" How did they get away with that garbage?

@AlexRN 2 месяца назад

I wouldn’t say they got away with it. This game got destroyed in reviews and I’m sure didn’t sell much. What surprises me is that they still got 2 more sequels after this. And somehow X7 was even worse.

You have no idea how therapeutic it was to hear you tear this stage's atrocious design to shreds. I can usually get over the iffy moments in games and try to appreciate the experience as a whole, but this one is just unforgivable... and it still would be even if the rest of X6 was actually good. I'd rather do the F-laser puzzle from X5 with my eyes closed than re-visit this abomination.

I honestly almost wanted to play this game before I saw you go through this stage. Frankly, I'm appalled that Capcom would do this to us. Nonetheless, your triumph through this is only a testament of your sheer level of skill and will power. Nicely done.

@KhaPha 13 лет назад

This stage was... my first introduction of X6. You remember the stigma that all fire bosses in X games were cool right? Well I picked Heatnix first, with unarmored X, thinking this and I was absolutely not prepared for the silly donuts I had to fight over and over and OVER again. After literally 2 hours and at least 20 attempts on the 4th donut (all failed) I gave up and decided that X6 was full of rushed, cheap game design -_- It figures that I would pick Yammarks stage the next :P

@MegaPhilX 4 года назад

The fourth mid-boss with the rising lava could have worked just fine with the lava at the very bottom of the screen while the camera auto-scrolls. Why they had to make the lava take up half the screen makes me think they were really going out of their way to make this as difficult as possible.

@Zakuzelo 14 лет назад

It's amazing how little the awesome stage theme suits these intense doughnut battles. I'm surprised you didn't comment on that, actually.

@DoubleATam 11 лет назад

I've been staring at the bloody donuts just to try and figure out what they're supposed to be, and I think I got it. They're supposed to be curled-up dragons. If you look at the lower-left corner of the "donuts", you see a jaw. It also has an arm attached to the segment of the top-left. My theory? They were so FRIGGIN' LAZY that they made ONE POSE for the bloody thing, didn't even ANIMATE IT, and left it like that.

@GBA-049 6 лет назад

DoubleATam It's actually based off of ouroboros. Which is known as a snake biting it's own tail, forming a circle. The actual name for the donuts are called Nightmare Snakes because of it. Interesting, but the designs of these things is so damned lazy that you can't even see anything snake related anywhere on it's body. Except the center. Which is obviously the tail. Other than that it's somewhat unique in terms of ideas and a small amount of creativity added in as well

@Tempo6132 7 лет назад

More evidence of Capcom not even trying... Take yet another look at the 3rd Red Doughnut's (I know it's called "Nightmare Snake", but c'mon) lower-left weakpoint... Not a single shot is fired off that doesn't smash into the ground immediately. Not only did they not stop to consider if any of the player characters were equipped to deal with this stage, they gave the same treatment to the fucking MINI-BOSS. It looks like that particular weakpoint is clipping the floor!

@DaThnikkaman27 10 лет назад

2:12 HoB: "Did I mention you have to fight five of them before this retardation ends?" I almost fell out of my chair when you said that. There's poor game design, and then there's this. Is this what the developers thought would be an engaging experience? Maybe they thought there lazy programming would be merely passable. MORE LIKELY, THEY JUST DIDN'T GIVE A DAMN.

@Galiaverse 14 лет назад

If you enter the lower half of the screen just after Heatnix lowers the lava, he'll bring the lava back up from the bottom of the screen again. You have to start sliding down the wall at just the right moment though. Anyway, VERY nice work. :)

@Galiaverse 14 лет назад

@Aquarys - It's not "difficult". It's absurdly tedious. Difficulty never should warrant tedium. Especially not at these levels. Maybe if platforms were better placed. Maybe if rising lava wasn't a one-hit kill and you only had 25% of the screen to work with. Maybe if the mini-bosses didn't have ridiculous levels of HP and there weren't FIVE of them. But no. I've seen difficult, and I love difficult. This is bad level design plain and simple.
