Inspired by a post within the Ask Capcom, I wanted to make a topic that would pertain to a 'What If' scenario within the Zero series.

 

So, if there is a re-release of MMZ for the DS, and supposing it would have a play feature in a 'What If' style that would make it closer to the 'Original Concept'... We can assume there would be big changes, but ultimately would play through very similarly...

 

So, evident changes:

1: Copy X would be the real X. X would still be the main enemy.

2: CyberElf X would probably be replaced by a Baby Elf, or something of a Purified Sigma CyberElf assisting Zero.

3: Phantom would have survived.

4: Ceil would be few years older.

5: Mother Elf would play a role as somewhat of an Anti-Hero type. Crossing paths with Zero, and reluctantly resisting and combating Zero in applicable methods...

 

Any thoughts? Post up your ideas.

hold on zechs, you mean that #1 copy X AKA the real X would still be the main enemy #2 zero and the dark elf would fight even though she became the mother elf once again and even though the dark/ mother elf and zero seem to have some sort of relationship #3 because i never played the first zero i wanna ask how did phantom die and how whould he have survived.

1 week with no posts, hmmm?

Well, this thread seems interesting enough, so i'll throw a few ideas around.

Story What Ifs:

Copy X is X.

In turn, Cyber Elf X is actually the Dark Elf, playing a "neither friend or enemy" role.

Omega can talk normally in his giant form.

Phantom survives Z1. Phantom becomes the leader of the guardians, not Harpuia.

Natrually, this means that Phantom also has an Armed Phenomenon form.

The guardians appear more in Z3.

Gameplay What Ifs:

Upon completion of the game with Zero, a challenge mode that allows you to play through the game with other characters (may or may not have plot, depending on the character) is unlocked.

The cyber-elves Zero uses look more like their art-work, and not balls of light. Dark Elf, along with Crea and Prea still have the usual look.

There will never be a need to level up Zero's weapons.

Upon completion of the game, there is an option to play as Zero in his X series design.

Zero's buster is a traditional buster, not a pistol.

Good questions but hard to awnser..

Then why make an irrelevant post in the first place? It makes no sense to post and deny a response.

 

On Topic:

Continuing the 'WhatIf' scenario, how about playable X? Play from his perspective? Command the Big 4, get your hands dirty... The works.

 

Thoughts?

It's a nice idea. It'd be kinda like the whole Vile thing in Irregular Hunter X, but the Final Battle would be kinda awkward. Would you have to fight a battle you're bound to lose or have a completely different ending if you win?
