I always thought that Isoc was essentially the consciousness of Zero's creator, Dr. Wily. Knowing Zero inside out? Uncontrolled fits of laughter at the prospect of X (the creation of his Rival, Dr. Light) being unable to defeat High Max? Isoc's remaining consciousness telling Zero to move forward as the ultimate reploid even when his own body was catatonic and nonfunctional Yeah.. I'd say it's a safe bet.
Isoc should've been replaced High Max as a boss in the 2nd stage of Gate's Laboratory. Imagine Isoc riding an advanced and upgraded version of Wily's tank and Wily's capsule. That would be dope as hell and so fitting for MegaMan Maverick Hunter X6 game.
@@skibot9974 X5. All the Wily references. Fighting the Devil with the old Devil them from the original. Sigma referencing “an old man” that hates X as much as him. Telling Zero the old man was like his father and knew everything about him. Then in X6 it is obviously the different reactions he has with X and Zero. He hates X with a passion and rips into him. He’s more angry over X not failing vs High Max than High Max being critically damaged. Then this scene. He’s less worried about High Max being damaged and more excited over Zeros capabilities/potential. He could care less about High Max in either case. Plus all the laughing. The voice actor who did Wily in Japan did Isocs voice. Just so many clues
In my humble opinion, they should had really played the Wily angle here, let Sigma's last appearance be at X5, and from X6 and forth be the Wily Saga, and why not, its just perfect. Wily (Isoc) played Gate like a fiddle by having the Maverick hunters attention and Wily working behind the scenes for a new terror
So much potential for a great story. Played X7 and X8 and was disappointed. I hated the new character Axl. If you wanted a third character should’ve worked Dynamo in
Serges and Isoc is actually Wily Reploids body and those two actually had Wily Mind, Personality and His Will thus Both Serges and Isoc VERY Interested with Zero despite both of them barely know who Zero is.
Isoc is indeed none other than Dr. Wily. I mean its so damn obvious he already give a lot of hints there but Capcom just don't wanna let Isoc to state the obvious.
It started to go into the point where the Evil Energy from 8 factored in as Wily's 'life raft' of sorts. Even showing up to take down Axl. But any connections were never explained. :(
Evil Energy > Roboenza > W Virus > Sigma Virus > Zero Virus > Nightmare Wily's genius for creating something that screwed up the world even after his physical body died is scary.
Also Dr. Wily was in Megaman X4 in the intro cutscene if you choose to play as Zero. And when Sigmas fighting Zero in that cutscene in X4 Zero has a W on his forehead when Sigma punched it I guess thats how Sigma got infected with the Maverick virus.
Thats what i thought too, but i found out later, that Sigma got infected from the Virus that leaked from Zeros Capsule (which also repaired his cognitive errors, thus he became "good")
...Calm down there, kiddo. Dr Light's reference to X's "unlimited potential" wasn't even a power related thing. X's potential was in his social/moral decisions and influence, not in power. As ProjectZXero said, X was a defender, not a weapon like Zero. Wily built Zero to be a weapon. He was born for combat, ergo he has an edge over X. Zero has always admired X's heroism, and X has always admired Zero's raw power. That's just how it's always been from day one :/
Wrong, play Megaman X5, the stage where your character its analyzed shocked even the Maverick boss when the results states X's potential to be unlimited
Luxai Well I really think X is superior because he has an limitless potencial, zero is stronger in somethings but I really think that X can surpasses him
AlvaroTol 2015 It really depends. Zero is per default incredibly strong, like, wtf Zero you haxxor kinda strong. X needs to evolve a LOT to take that on, but he's never actually defeated him. Even in X5 Zero will stomp you flat if you drag the fight out too long.
You missed the part where X and Zero are so incredibly complex that they are almost completely beyond the reach of their current science. And these are robots created a CENTURY earlier. Its very hard to repair them when they take damage, and their DNA programs are unanalyzable. Even Cain was unable to rebuild Zero, and he's the leading scientist of the X world. For isoc to "know him inside out", he can be nobody else. Not to mention calling Zero "boy" in an "im your elder" sort of way.
@ACWKnight They seem to like to play with words. Saying "old man" might not refer to a person but to an "old/past figure/character" in this case. And the fact he laughs when Zero defeats high max and X doesnt, shows incredible happyness (and some irony) and not disdain, Willy was incredible proud of his creatins and wished anything related to lightman to fail. The list goes on ofc.
Imagine, after over a 100 years his best robot Zero is still far superior to cutting edge reploids of the current era, worse of all Gate not only had Zero's DNA to help him build High Max, he was already infamous for building Reploids deemed " too strong "
THE WHOLE STORY: Sigma did say he teamed up with someone that's built ROBOTS. X and Zero are not Reploids...they're robots (just like Guts Man, Cut Man, Proto Man, Gravity Man, and all the other MegaMan Robot Masters). The Reploids are replicas of X's design; and, Zero's design later on. There are only THREE people in the MegaMan games which made robots: Dr. Light, Dr. Wily and Dr. Cossack. Since, Dr. Light and Cossack are both GOOD-guys, there's no reason for them to team up with the bad guy (Sigma). The only one whomst would team-up with Sigma is Dr. Wily's Robotic clone - also known as Robo-Wily (because, the real Dr. Wily dies at the end of MegaMan 3). That's how "Dr. Wily" was able to save his "conciousness." The Dr. Wily we see in every MegaMan game after MegaMan 3 is just a robot clone of the real Dr. Wily. And, Zero was supposed to be a new body for Robo-Wily to transfer his programming/conciousness into (and, he succeeded). The Roboenza virus as well as the Dark Energy (from MegaMan 8) AND Robo-Wily's program combined to form the "Zero Virus." Then, when Sigma absorbed the Zero Virus, it evolved into the Sigma Virus. This allowed Robo-Wily to corrupt the most powerful Reploid in the MegaMan X time-line (Sigma). After that, different parts of Robo-Wily's programming/conciousness came back as Serges, Agile and Violin to complete his incomplete Robot, Zero. His plan was to finally complete Zero and take over Zero's body for good...but, MegaMan X got in the way. Then, he teamed up with Sigma to create a Robot-body for Sigma. Later ont, he inhabited the body of Isoc, and created ANOTHER body for himself in the form of High Max. But, once again, X got in the way with the help of Zero. After High Max's defeat, Wily took a "vacation" by not doing much in the X7 and X8 time-lines. The next time you hear of Wily and Sigma is in the MegaMan Zero time-line, in which they combined their "conciousnesses/programs" to infect the Mother Elf. But, that's a whole other story.
funny we all know wily been making his presents known for such a long time in this seris be nice for them to finally put him in the X seris and them to finally make a megaman game that pretty much finishes the megaman game seris and it finally let us see what happens to the orginal megaman and what maded Dr light create X which was for the reason he was so advence for his time i all ways loved the megaman and megaman X game seris but i know alot of us wish we can just finally get the backstory
This game have some serious flaws on Level design, Gameplay and Story(Yep starts right off with a big plot hole). Those flaws can be spoted if you play the game with some critical eyes or at least...compare with previous entries
Gabriel Zero if you mean the "I hid myself while repairing myself", Isoc's existence and knowledge of Zero's internal structure gives the implied idea: Isoc repaired, upgraded and restored Zero back into action. Same way Serges did it in MMX2.
They all thought Zero died in X5 when he protected X from Sigma. Isacnad Gate used Zero's DNA to create High Max so in a sense High Max is Zero's illegitimate child. That's also why he said he knew Zero inside and out because if his Zero's DNA.
+Mr Game & Watch! (◕‿◕) The music sounds a bit different in all these videos. My guess is that the uploader recorded the scenes from the PC version, so the game's sound palette is slightly different.
@@km_studios Hi, it's not the PC version. The original soundtrack have two "sequenced" versions, one for the Gate and one for High Max. Both of them appears only for cutscenes.
For all of the arguments about X/Zero being stronger than Zero/X, there is no winner. Zero is made to be an offensive weapon, evolving constantly to improve in offense, whereas X was made to be defensive, a protector. Zero says X is 'stronger than him' due to the fact that Zero always believed X was a hero, and he thought of himself as a murderer, especially after the Iris event in X4. Zero is to X what Bass was to Rock. An improved upon copy of original blueprints built to be offensive.
Honestly…isoc should’ve been the final boss of mmx6 specially when you defeat gate he will desperately ask isoc to help him but then isoc betrays him like how sigma did
funny how this guy did one move which pretty much stopped zero in his tracks and pretty much tells him he knows everything there is to know about him capcom just needs to fix the the story and put wily in all ready the laugh he does pretty much the same type wily all ways used just add the guy in all ready we all ready know wily is still around even if hes nothing more than a mere program of himself would be nice just to be able to tie togetor more loose ends with both games all ready
@luispick It's cause X has something special in him that Dr.Light gave him that Wily couldn't give Zero...if you watch the rise of sigma or w/e from the psp version of megaman X it explains it
Mega man is not more than a robot. He is just a robot, like any other in his time. proto man might be the exception, in that he is quite unique compared to others. but Rock... he is not. the "die wily scene " was also in the American version only, whereas in the Japanese, he points his buster at Wily, to which Wily scared, reminds rock he is not supposed to harm humans, to which Rock just goes "..."
Effectively, when they attempted to rewrite their own programming, they didn't have the means to do so, causing various issues, which eventually caused them to go maverick, such as altered brain function, system failures, etc..
I never said they were. they still EXIST, but reploids, (and classic series robots as well, FYI,) are not bound to them. they exist however, and Light decided to make X undergo the ethical testing because he feared the consequences of X breaking the first law, regardless of his having it or not.
@Luigi84289 Zero said this "I don´t care they have a stronger hunter than me" X is Stronger than Zero, When X was a B class hunter (X1) he beats 10 SA rank hunters (boss from the first game, Vile and Sigma). The real difference is when a maverick fights with Zero, they fear or hate him due he is pretty quick and destroy without asking. Where X is normally called "Trash" due the fact he is the First reploid, but others respect him cuz he is a true justice fighter
haiz if isoc was wily, hed know enough about zero to be able to take him out easy.(who knows, he might have made a fail safe in case zero ever tried to kill him)
We all know isoc is wily i believe isoc laugh pretty much is a big clue no villan in the MM series could laugh like Wily second Isoc looked very proud the fact zero man handled High max the fact he took down zero with little to no effort shows the fact that he knows zero body like if he builded zero himself i say pretty big clues there the fact that isoc talked down to zero like if a father talking down to his son also another clue of him being wily
Thanks for the video!! Oh and X is stronger than Zero and let´s forget the gameplay. Has anyone seen X in Neutral Armor (for example) in ending video scenes in X8? you didn´t right? then let´s forget the armor stuff. Zero is strong, of course but X is stronger because he starts being weak but has the ability of learn from his defeats and evolve. He can be beaten but on the next fight we will become harder of beat, check Maverick Hunter X if you have doubts. Zero cannot, that is the difference.
LOl maverick hunter X is just the reboot game, non-canon. I don't remember if dr.Light ever said X has unlimited potential in the original X1. furthermore, Zero can evolve in the battles too.
@TheTuberguy1000 Zero was stronger than X at the beginning of the series and *also* has infinite potential. Furthermore Omega was vastly more powerful than a copy of X at his peak.
@SenshiSam make him "weak" but he get a lot of "Gameplay balance" for stop that damn Dash Slash Cancel, that is very, very cheap. On the mmx story X Stops sigma revolt (x1), Destroy Sigma´s followers, being the new hunter leader, rescue Zero (or beat him if you dont get Zero parts) and kicks sigma´s butt. On X3 Sigma tries to take X powers to become him into the strongest maverick ever, but fail, cuz X get´s "Virus Sigma Antibodies" by own, X4 he can beat colonel with just 1 arm, kill Double
@Luigi84289 X Destroy the whole body of sigma, X don´t get so much battle damage, just look Zero is near to death when X tries to Awake him, cuz that Sigma attack him, Zero deals the final blow, just that. Dont mix up Story with Gameplay, X is the main character cuz that he gets the Armor upgrades, that is gameplay, but those parts are optional to get, don´t related to the main story. Then on Zero saga, Zero can get some chips, cyber elfs, forms etc to increase his own power, and don
He is not Wily, but he does have his knowledge just like Serges(applied Wily's theory for the new Zero's parts in X2) thanks to the Zero's virus that contained the data... Yup, the Mavericks/Irregulars are Wily's legacy and mistake after all...
I don't know what part of X6 makes me more upset; the fact that they had this great plot hook for Zero that they did NOTHING with in this game or the ones that followed, or Blaze Heatnix's stage. ...Who am I kidding, it's Blaze Heatnix's stage.
Comment part 1: You should really calm down there. Its either your trollin or your totally passionate about this X vs. Zero thing. For your information, I've also played Megaman 1-9, Megaman X1-X8, Command Mission, Megaman Zero 1-4, Megaman ZX & Advent, and even Legends, so you can't particularly say I have no diea what I'm about to say. X is stronger than Zero not because of Raw power, but because of his potential. X has lower specs than Zero but has the ability to adapt and become stronger.
When you fight vs Zero on mmx2 you can destroy his charge shot with X regular shots and destroy them with a single full charge shot, Zero was powered up by Serges... X is stronger because he can evolve more and more, Sigma said that, Zero, Dr doppler etc. Look badass =/= Strongest
@MiDSinister yeah anyone whos a true magaman fan knows wily made zero and light made x. even in i believe magaman and bass you see blue prints of what looks like zero
i doubt some random reploid is going to know zero so well dinno why capcom keep dancing around wily and just put him into the game wily still make a great villan even if wily is facing a differant Megaman
