Played more of this on my Switch (particularly the Metafight Chronicle version with voice acting) and I have to say - this is, in my opinion, the best Blaster Master game bar none. Even though I feel like Zero 3's got better combat, Zero 2 just feels amazing to play for me (leaps and bounds above any of the other Blaster Master games before it in terms of movement and combat) and the map design is fantastic. The only things that might be a turn-off are the difficulty (much more challenging than Zero 1 but still on the easier side and area maps still spoil the dungeon layouts) and the fact that the game uses a world map to travel between planets and planetoids instead of having interconnected areas like most of the other games (even then, the areas themselves have a ton of room for exploration).
Very nice trilogy.
1 = Simple and fun, a bit too easy and uninteresting bosses.
2 = A Step up in all fronts. Good bosses, streamlined map and exploration. My favourite.
3 = Best bosses (The final ones are VERY challenging. The level design however gets too labyrinthian and confusing for my tastes.
2>3>1
I haven't finished this game yet, but I'm having an absolute [i]blast[/i] with this game. I feel like a lot of things are significantly improved from the first game and feels better to play. The counter mechanic seems to be a bit overpowered at firstbut I still think this game is harder than the first despite the counter mechanic because countering attacks on some enemies won't stun them and they can shoot at you and the enemies in this game can be relentless but once you understand their behaviours you can deal with them pretty easily.
I've heard complaints about wall jumping being janky but I don't think that's true. The only thing I find janky in this game is when you have to jump from one ladder to another (when you're playing as Jason) and there's actually an (optional?) level that will require you to do this and I died a lot here. To be honest I am playing with an arcade stick so my opinion on what is "janky" may differ from most other players.
The level design in this game feels a lot more refined from the first one too. I rarely got lost even without looking at the map because the game is really good at guiding you towards the next objective. For some this might make it feel linear so if you like being lost like in the first game this game might disappoint you a bit.
If you like the first game, definitely give this one a try, it's basically a much better version than the first game IMO.
GOOD‼️ 👍
Big improvement over Zero 1. The map is made so that backtracking is less tedious, the game is actually a decent challenge, and there's some very satisfying movement upgrades. The weapons have been completely changed to be way more balanced. At first, I thought they were too weak, but by the end I was used to them. You actually have a reason to use something other than the highest level weapon at all times.
Also the counter mechanic is peak
Replayed on PC. A near-perfect follow-up to the first one, BMZ2 improves on virtually everything from BMZ1 and is one of the best 2D action platformer/metroidvania’s on the market.
Pros:
- General Gameplay
- Excellent Pixel Art
- OST
- Level Variety
- Exploration
- Boss Variety
Mixed:
- Ending Section
- Story
- Character Designs
Cons:
- Optional objective back-tracking
Overall, I had alot of fun replaying BMZ2 as it fixes all the issues of 1 besides the story and makes exploration pretty fun with areas that each of the main planets having unique gimmicks that distinguish them from one another. While I didn't enjoy the last section as much, in large part due to the story getting weird and the gameplay not being as fast-paced, it ends the game well enough. Definitely buy if you're a fan of 2D platformers with some satisfying exploration, fun bosses, and a great combat system that works in tandem with each other. 9.0/10.
全成就016
9.0/10，“变形战车”重制版续作，剧情脱离了地球进入了宇宙这个更大的舞台。
+ 可以在宇宙遨游的变形战车太酷啦
+ 依然非常带感的BMG
+ Eve更大更可爱啦
+ BOSS机制有趣
+ 整体难度比前作正常模式高了不少，但是如果你过了前作毁灭者模式，就会觉得难度正好，大部分BOSS都非常简单
- 全成就稍微有点麻烦，特别是NORA MA-07这个成就，第一次拿到G vs G后，如果没打过BOSS死掉了，重试后一定要按照奖杯要求再次化解Garuda的每一次攻击后再打死BOSS，否则终站再打Garuda拿不到NORA MA-07成就
Am I another of the thousand people that bought this game because of the funny Plant Women?... 𝓨𝓮𝓼…
Now into the actual review, this game had the same thing that happened with Atlyss: Where I ended up loving the game itself more than the character that made me want to play it. (which btw- Kanna was the easiest boss in the game…)
I remember when I first started this game, and the moment I started moving around knowing that this game is going to be good. And it stayed good all away through, slowly building up concepts and challenges around the way you play. And I am not kidding when I say that this game did kind of make my jaw drop when I went into a cave and it turned into a top-down Dungeon Crawler… This is my first Blaster Master game btw, so this might be an average thing, but I was not expecting this…
This game is so good that my only actual critic I have is that there isn’t a Level Builder, a Level Builder for this game would go SO HARD not gonna lie… ;-;
9/10
The game is GREAT, and makes me want to play both the First and Original ones after playing this. (also, I actually like Jason’s Design, even if he is kinda bland… :T)
Lo he jugado poco pero sinceramente me encantó este juego, conseguir todos sus logros fue algo bastante complicado en lo personal pero lo disfruté un montón, sin dudas uno de mis juegos favoritos.
[h1]Blaster Master Zero 2[/h1]
Сиквел приятно удивил. Игра поделена на совершенно разные миры (планеты) и множество планетоидов с улучшениями. Главный герой теперь умеет наносить ответный удар – мощную контратаку, а транспорт получил возможность заряжать энергию сотрясением. Боссы стали разнообразнее, дизайн уровней стал интереснее, улучшился графон. Саундтрек лично мне больше понравился в первой части, но и здесь есть что услышать. В общем и целом, сиквел расширяет игру во всём – несомненный плюс.

比丝之歌好玩😇
白金第17&18作：《超惑星战记ZREO2》&《超惑星战记ZERO3》
打完bmz1之后回去打了两部视觉小说才继续bmz2，bmz2白金以后评测写了一半开了bmz3，想想还是把2和3并在一起说了。本来以为后面两作是跟一代一样先快速过一遍普通难度再在困难难度磨洋工的路数，没想到能给我这么大的惊喜。
2和3不再是FC重制，而是剧情延续一代的完全新作。二代剧情讲述了杰森驾驶索菲亚零式成功从被侵蚀的索菲亚3中救出了伊芙，解决了地球上的变异体后发现伊芙自身也被变异体侵蚀，为了拯救伊芙从而踏上前往伊芙的出生地——索菲亚星，并在途中和各式各样的MA驾驶员相遇的故事。三代则是两人一蛙（）在苏菲亚星发生的种种事，为了避免剧透剧情方面就说这么多。
关卡设计上，二代和三代依旧优秀，尤其是这两代的史特朗格星和二代冰火星的迷宫，初见真的给我惊到了，头一次见这么有意思的关卡。并且三代新增了次元空间（类似里世界）的设定，使得关卡地图的设计变得格外丰富。此外，由于后两代取消了初代的毁灭者模式，所以关卡难度有一定提升，同时杰森的武器也有一定削弱，不再像一代那样无脑突突就能通关了。
战斗系统上改动最大的还是二三代新增的反击系统，接触到敌方或是弹幕的时候可以通过反击来规避伤害和增加输出。二代的反击系统感觉略微鸡肋，个人没怎么用过，三代除了反击以外还多了一个冲刺，让杰森机动性有了进一步提升，且关卡内更强调反击的运用，熟练运用反击能极大幅度提升游戏体验。
我打动作游戏不怎么看剧情，但是BMZ系列的剧情我真的挺喜欢的。我这人就喜欢看点纯爱，而BMZ又刚好满足了这一点，尤其是二代结尾，很热血，三代结局也是看得老泪纵横（。剧情个人喜爱程度是2≥3＞1，真的很不错。
当然，有优点固然也会有缺点。一代毁灭者模式的属性克制和难度设定不够合理，二代的GvsG成就提示不够明显，权兵卫成就前置略显繁琐，三代前期的引导不足等等，但这些我觉得都是瑕不掩瑜的，无法掩盖这个系列的优秀。
综上，我十分推荐横版类银爱好者尝试一下BMZ系列。本系列在我心里的地位可以说是我玩过的所有类银里第二，甚至和rabi并列第一的位置，达到了我心目中“神作”的水准，游戏价格也不贵，原价不亏史低血赚。唯一的遗憾就是PC没有三部合集版，听说合集版还有语音，没办法玩到实在可惜。引用某游戏玩家群体的一个句式，能在有生之年接触到超惑星战记系列，我真的很幸运，就用三代结局里凯因的一段话作为本篇的结尾吧。
「你们还有必须托付的“未来”以及应该守护的“世界”对吧？」
「——快去吧！“爆能大师”！」
Oh where do I even start? the first game was indeed too easy and you could cheese a lot of bosses with the wide beam and the other sub weapon/guns felt very situational or just not very useful at all, the lack of dash also made Jason feel slow. Here? not only has the item collection game been improved but the counter mechanic also allows for dashing and high skill gameplay, the bosses and enemies are designed with that in mind so the game feels intense and fast paced, the story further adds to it. The new characters are all very likable and interesting, the setting is also nice, the new GAIA system is a nice quality of life and the wide beam nerf is much appreciated. This game improves on the original in every way possible. 10/10

Old school game
没想到后面的boss会这么多，打完行星G还有Ω区，本身剧情角色都是易摔死的体质，闯关难度更上一层楼...
Игра Супер!
Me pase el Blaster Master Zero mientras vivia el proceso que yo llamo, depresion POST-JUEGO, terminaba de pasarme RDR2 en el PS5 y necesitaba un juego corto para sobrellevar el duelo de haber terminado tan increible historia, asi llegue al BMZ1 y en vista que la historia continuaba pues habia que seguir con el 2, un devorador de historias no puede quedarse asi, y este juego es mejor que el 1, mas dinamico, mas variedad de entornos, enemigos y los jefes son muy disfrutables, en el modo de jugar con JASON se mejoro muchisimo las dinamicas jugables, mas divertidas y la posibilidad de hacer un contraataque lo hace mas divertido, juego recomendado para consumir algo ligero y divertido
A welcome improvement over the first game with entirely new levels, more active mechanics, a more epic scope with a killer endning, and some solid hidden bosses. though sadly the game is still way too easy with the i frame dodge you get early on basically allowing you to dash through all enemy attacks. Ontop of jason's main attack still being OP and the player still having an anti gun downgrade sheild which means you rarely wont be maxxed out.
Would I recommend this? Hells yeah!
The good:
* Story progression that is going to make anime fans very, very happy.
* Amazing new music, the tunes are just amazing.
* graphics are peak SNES era, beautiful backgrounds, amazing vistas, really good animations
* New parry system adds another layer to the gameplay
* New energy system adds another layer as well
The bad:
* People will tinnitus will likely want to want to turn off Stranga's soundtrack. For some reason, SOMEONE thought it would be good to ruin the soundtrack there by adding a SIREN to it. Seriously, don't add sirens to music unless you're making a 90s arena rave song and even then, keep it moderate.
* Save points are sometimes so far between that you end up repeating a ton of content
* Some game mechanics remain unexplained and cause frustration, if you find yourself going "Why is this stupidly hard?" or "Wow, I've been everywhere and have no idea where to go next", please consult your local search engine.
* Offscreen enemies can attack you, but you can't attack them. That's blatantly unfair.
* Parry mechanic is horrible until you can an AoE parry, then it becomes stupidly cool.
The conclusion:
This is a solid game. Kid me would have called it the sequel of the year, and honestly, had I played this when it came out, I'd agreed with kid me. This is superb. That's not to say it doesn't have a bit of jank here and there, but as I've outlined above, a short google session will set you straight. That being said, if you're not used to parry mechanics in games, you'll find this quite challenging. Buuut, practice makes perfect.
On a special note, this game has definitely given me a lot of emotions while playing it. Anger, discovery, frustration, intrigue, pure QQ crying, hatred and amazement. This game has some moments which I've only had in the past. I honestly didn't think games were capable of this kind of depth anymore.
Also: For those of you who play it based on this review: She.has.melons. Wow.
与前作相比，新加的爆能反击系统让俯视角战斗部分好玩了不少，横向卷轴部分也不再只是跑图工具，加入了更多场精彩的横向卷轴BOSS战，最重要的是没有了那个恶心死人的毁灭者模式，确实是进步成一个还不错的游戏了。
A sequel to the remake of the original NES Blaster Master, Blaster Master Zero 2 continues to be faithful to the original while introducing some new mechanics and a more ironed story. An improvement in every way, if you liked the first one, you will like this one as well.
比第一部好玩很多，boss更难了，关卡设计更丰富，不同的区域有不同的机制，最重要的是不同的区域有不同的npc，和npc的互动让我感觉有人一直陪伴着我的游戏旅程
This is a great game. The story had me genuinely captivated which is quite a rare occurrence for what seems like just a silly little platformer. They also don't force the story down your throat, with most of it being slipped to the player by the passenger conversation system where you can pick when to talk to Eve and learn more that you might have not known. Jason's top down segments kind of sucked in Zero 1, but they came to their own with the counter system and they ended up being the parts of the game I wanted to play the most. Inti Creates sometimes makes middling firsts but they always pull it back with the 2nd game and this is a case where they did so.
Great follow up, it has a lot of QoL changes that make this game even more comfortable to play when compared to the first one. The only thing I didn't like on this game is area E (the plant zone), the other areas are great.
Anyways, it's a great game, if you like the first game, you are also going to like this one.
Blaster Master Zero 2, developed and published by INTI CREATES, is a remarkable follow-up to the rebooted Blaster Master series, seamlessly merging retro-inspired design with modern gameplay refinements. Released in 2019, the game expands upon the foundation of its predecessor, offering both returning fans and newcomers an engaging combination of action, exploration, and storytelling. Its polished mechanics and compelling narrative make it a standout entry in the action-adventure genre.
The story of Blaster Master Zero 2 picks up shortly after the events of the first game, following Jason Frudnick and his android companion Eve on a mission to the planet Sophia. Their goal is to find a cure for Eve’s deteriorating condition, and along the way, players encounter a host of new characters and environments that enrich the lore of the series. The narrative is emotionally resonant, balancing moments of tension, camaraderie, and reflection, which creates a stronger connection between the player and the protagonists. The storytelling is integrated naturally into gameplay, ensuring that the plot enhances the experience without interrupting the pacing.
Gameplay in Blaster Master Zero 2 combines side-scrolling platforming with top-down exploration, providing a dynamic and varied experience. Players pilot the G-SOPHIA tank in side-scrolling segments, navigating intricate terrain and battling a wide variety of enemies and bosses. In top-down sections, Jason explores on foot, uncovering hidden areas, solving environmental puzzles, and locating upgrades for the tank and his own abilities. This dual gameplay structure keeps the action engaging, requiring players to switch between careful combat strategy and exploratory problem-solving. The integration of upgrades and hidden areas encourages curiosity and rewards thorough exploration.
Level design in Blaster Master Zero 2 is meticulously crafted, with each area featuring unique themes, enemy types, and environmental challenges. The game strikes a careful balance between linear progression and open exploration, allowing players to follow the main objectives while also discovering optional areas and secrets that enhance their capabilities. This design encourages players to experiment with different strategies and revisit previously explored zones, adding replay value and depth to the experience. Boss encounters are challenging and memorable, testing players’ mastery of both the tank and Jason’s on-foot abilities.
Visually, the game employs a vibrant pixel art style that captures the charm of classic 16-bit titles while incorporating modern enhancements. Character animations are fluid, and environments are rich in detail and personality, providing a strong sense of immersion. Complementing the visuals, the soundtrack features energetic chiptune compositions that evoke nostalgia while reinforcing the game’s adventurous tone. Audio cues and sound effects are carefully designed to provide feedback during combat and exploration, further enhancing the gameplay experience.
While Blaster Master Zero 2 excels in many areas, it does present some challenges. The difficulty curve can be steep for new players, particularly during certain boss fights that demand precision and strategy. At times, the pacing may feel uneven, with sections that require repeated attempts or careful memorization of enemy patterns. However, these challenges contribute to the game’s rewarding nature, offering a sense of accomplishment once mastered.
In summary, Blaster Master Zero 2 is a finely tuned action-adventure game that successfully builds upon the legacy of its series. With its engaging storyline, dynamic dual-mode gameplay, intricate level design, and striking visuals, it offers a richly satisfying experience for players seeking both challenge and nostalgia. Its combination of exploration, combat, and character-driven storytelling makes it a must-play for fans of the series and a compelling introduction for newcomers alike.

[h1]Overall Rating - High Quality ★★★★☆[/h1]
[h1]First Impressions[/h1]
I was never good enough at the original Blaster Master to get very far into the game, but I knew enough about it to recognize its strong influence in the remake. The developers added enough of their own flair that it wasn't a 1:1 copy, but there was no question that it was working off an already established system. Blaster Master Zero 2 (BM2) not only doesn't take material from another game, it feels like the kind of sequel where the people making the game got a bit experimental.
[h1]Gameplay[/h1]
If you summarize the sequel in contrast to the first release, at its core there wouldn't be much difference. You'll drive the tank through a variety of environments, exploring overworld sections in platforming style gameplay. In order to explore smaller areas, you'll climb out of the tank, switching to an overhead, twin-stick shooter system. Taking damage still diminishes the strength of your gun, but there's several locations and power-ups to find across the galaxy thanks to all the warp holes you can access. Due to the plot, instead of exploring sprawling biomes with multiple caves to navigate, they're often broken up into smaller planetoids containing a single power-up. It means you have to traverse the map more often, but doesn't require as much zig-zagging back and forth across entire locations to advance.
Where the game felt different to me was in its combat. In the first release, some of my fun stemmed from trying different weapons against the large range of bosses, looking for the unexpected weakness. Oftentimes, just spamming the strongest weapon would be faster, but seeing how an enemy would falter against another option was more interesting to me. Unless the boss ticked me off, giving it a fighting chance was more compelling. However, during my playthrough of BM2, I could rarely hold onto my gun upgrades long enough to reach the boss fully powered. There seemed to be a deliberate ploy of spamming enemies that capitalize on your non-existent invulnerability phase, rapidly shaving off your health and gun upgrades. In order to mitigate this, they included a dodge system, but it didn't come second nature to me, perhaps because of what I got used to from the first game.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3566751770
[h1]Controls[/h1]
Something that feels different immediately is how the tank controls. It no longer has that sense of forward momentum as you platform, instead feeling tighter and more responsive to your handling. The control layout is largely the same, but with the addition of a new combat mechanic, which was given particular impact by the developers. I think they really wanted to make this series feel like their own thing, even if it meant throwing the balance of overhead combat completely askew. Overall, beating the sequel wasn't much worse than the first title, yet it also seemed like enemies were made to shave off your health and reduce your weapon power, unless you were readily using their new mechanic.
[h1]Story[/h1]
Eve gets infected by mutant crud sometime after what transpired in the first game, and serves as your personal motivation for reaching her home planet by any means necessary. Of course that requires you to punch a huge hole through the mutant forces, because they stand in your way. Since the inciting event takes place off-screen, and you keep encountering the resulting havoc of an enemy you already have beef with, I didn't find myself that motivated in this conflict. Any given battle against the mutants felt random, as they'd keep showing up during our journey, but never as a deliberate threat. It didn't feel personal, more like a means to an end. If we could have reached our goal without firing a shot, we'd have taken it.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3566753310
[h1]Visuals[/h1]
Since the original release was a remaster using the developers art style, the sequel looks incredibly similar, but adapted for the added element of space travel. Generally, I think the game looks great, except for the inspiration they took with bosses. This probably had a factor in my feelings towards combat, as the designs weren't that threatening or interesting, and then they'd get recycled on top of it, “You better bee-ware, because I'm a bee! The third one you've fought at that!” Let's not forget the old looking guy who you had to beat more than once by himself, with a clone, and with his twin brother. Having to fight people who should be your allies also feels contrived. Either way, if you enjoyed how the first title looks, you'll largely see more of the same.
[h1]Sound Design[/h1]
From my perspective, the chip-tunes music of BM2 makes me think of the SNES era, as the sound effects have greater refinement than the NES allowed for. Either way, it's used well here, making for a sound track that has plenty of energy, supporting the on-screen action. It doesn't necessarily scream sci-fi, which would suit the environment better, but I still enjoyed the tunes. With how many attacks there are between all the enemies and your different weapons, the sound effects carry enough impact to sound convincing.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3566753669
[h1]Pros[/h1]
🌟 Meeting other tank pilots makes it seem like there's actually an effort being made to combat the mutant invasion, instead of just empty text on a screen.
🌟 There's not as much need to wander around the same areas repeatedly in order to make progress.
🌟 The tank handles better than the original release did.
[h1]Cons[/h1]
❌ For all the fuss made about reaching a specific planet, you don't get to see any of it in this game.
❌ The lack of invincibility frames can shred through both your gun levels and health.
❌ Compared to the first game, the boss designs are weak.
[h1]Tips[/h1]
🔍 Bosses have a specific gun level or sub-weapon they're weak to, as they'll get stunned in place when hit.
🔍 If you come across a cheap enemy, abuse your dodge ability. That's what it's there for.
[h1]Final Thoughts[/h1]
Despite my impression that the sequel isn't quite as good, not needing to go back and forth through already cleared areas has been an improvement. Conversely, it didn't seem quite so obvious where I needed to go in order to progress in certain situations. Story-wise, I don't think it quite came together, but I like the idea of scouring the galaxy, hunting down rare parts in remote locations, while blasting away any mutant strongholds. My main downside was the feeling that the combat didn't seem as rewarding as before. Regardless, I still liked the sequel, but not as strongly as the first game. Both titles have DLC available that I didn't dive into, having enjoyed a single playthrough in both instances. At some point though, I see myself returning later so that I can explore what each has to offer. I find both worthwhile games, and want to see how the series culminates in the trilogy.

Blaster Master Zero 2 is quite the step up from the first. Before gassing the game up, time to complain about the story.
Much like the original Blast Master Zero, the story this time around still sucks. It’s even more forgettable this time around, go from point A to point B to cure Eve from being overtaken by mutant genes infecting her body. The first game’s story, while also not very good, had some mystery to it in an attempt to make you intrigued. Who the hell is Eve? What are all these mutants doing? [url=https://youtu.be/r30mmGxJHgc?si=2kbwkpcF7TABWEBc]WHERE THE HELL IS FROGGY?[/url] There is none of that in Blast Master Zero 2, it’s very straightforward. I also feel like that this story isn’t just here to solely provide context to your actions like in most Mario games, which is why I’m so critical of it. There’s just way too many story interruptions and relatively wordy dialogue which is often not interesting. It’s written the same way I would ask someone of something over email, babied explanations to make sure that the recipient has no way in hell to misinterpret it. There are some new characters that are all largely forgettable outside of some neat character designs. However, there is a plant woman who has… a character design. She probably resides in the gooning folder of many PCs. There is also this edgelord, he looks cool but is so far from acting like it. He is such a dweeb tryhard, bro is not him; for the love of God, never open your mouth ever again. That concludes the obligatory Blaster Master Zero story whining, onto everything else.
What a glow up over the original, especially for the on-foot sections. They attempted to balance wave, emphasis on attempt. It’s still busted but they encourage you to switch weapons because weapons get weaker if you just spam them. The cooldown is short and you often won’t run into this issue as most enemies (outside of bosses) will be dead before the weakening takes effect. Points for trying, but maybe third time’s the charm for balancing this system. Even with my balancing complaints, I found the overall difficulty to be just high enough to keep me engaged. You do have a new move to add to your arsenal, slick as hell counterattacks. I mostly used that counter-shot (whatever it’s called), but they all make you feel cool as hell and make engagements feel way more engaging compared to the first entry. Not much has changed when riding on your tank, G-Sophia, but the changes to sub-weapon energy is quite nice. I felt that the old energy meter was rather restrictive, having to mostly rely on drops to replenish it. This led to me barely engaging with the sub-weapons, but changed with this new system. You regenerate energy from falling and getting hit allowing you to have a whole lot more energy to play with adding some much-needed spice to the tank combat. You even slowly regenerate to full energy after running out. Just a lot small simple tweaks and additions that really add up to being a game-changer.
The game now takes place over multiple planets lending to a grander scale. Ultimately, it doesn’t change much when navigating the stages themselves compared to the first game, but something intangible (I just can’t put it in words, I’m a hack fraud) about that makes it really cool. Maybe I’m just a sucker for space even at a superficial level. Joining the main stages are bunch of planetoids with a one-off challenge on each of them. These serve as fun way of further exploring an idea or mechanic as well giving some levity between the larger stages.
Blaster Master Zero 2 is very iterative sequel outshining the original game in almost every regard. I’m quite glad to have stuck with the series, rather than just bouncing off after finishing the middling first Blaster Master Zero. Curious to see how the third one fares in relation to these two.
Cool game
Definitely harder than the first one, in the sense that it's more balanced and challenging
The dungeons are not just "spam the max level weapon" and honestly I didn't had my weapon max level most of the time
They probably notice that either the Sophia fights were more fun or that they were more broken and most of the boss fights in this game are with it but it's not a stomp fest like the first game
Game's not balls hard but it's a nice challenge
Приятное продолжение серии после первого ремейка. Сюжет продолжается сразу после хорошей концовки первой части. Теперь нужно добраться до родной планеты нашей андроидши, чтобы избавить ту от заражения.
Вместо цельного мира для исследования нам предлагают посетить небольшие планеты, размером с Сектор из первой части, и маленькие сателиты из нескольких комнат с полосой препятствий или боссом. Теперь передвижение по этим планетам-секторам более свободное. Всегда можно улететь с одной планеты и приземлиться на другую. Новые планеты открываются после обнаружения данных с их координатами в космосе. (Эта система сюжетного прогресса мне сильно напомнила восьмибитную метроидванию от Активижн - The Adventures of Rad Gravity. Особенно после посещения "Странной" планеты.)
На планетах теперь встреченные NPC дают свой особый квест, который просто необходимо выполнить. А это не особо интересный процесс. Всегда нужно просто еще раз пройтись по всей планете и собрать появившиеся в разных комнатах нужные предметы, после чего вернуться к квестодателю. Да и награда за такие квесты не пригодится на протяжении всей игры до самого финала.
Из новых игровых механик появилась разве только возможность пополнять ману за счет падения на землю с большой высоты. Чем дольше падаешь, тем больше восстановится. В остальном система развития возможностей танка осталась без значительных изменений. Заменили основное оружие и большую часть суб оружия на новое, чуть более сбалансированное, как мне кажется. Некоторое из суб-оружий все также будет помогать преодолевать ранее непроходимые места.
Во время управления героем вне транспорта тоже изменений минимум. Добавили механику парирования, которая позволяет атаковать врага во время его собственных выстрелов. Ну и также заменили вооружение и суб-оружие на новые вариации. Тоже более сбалансированные.
Среди врагов появились боссы планеты. Огромные чудища, требующие использования не только танка, но и самого пилота для победы. Они получились интересными, хотя местами и затянутыми слегка.
В остальном геймплей игры претерпел минимум изменений, но остался на приятном высоком уровне. Разве только финальная фича разочаровала. Супер-сильного танка не выдали, но то что придумали, тоже было интересным решением.
Мне понравилось. Если понравилась первая часть ремейка, то и эта игра придется по вкусу.

[h1]Önce Döv Sonra Dost Ol Temalı Oyunun Kısa İncelemesi[/h1]
Karada, suda ve uzayda hareket eden minik aracımızla, nedenini hatırlayamadığım bir sebepten ötürü zehirlenmiş olan yardımcı robotumuzu kurtarma serüveninde bizim gibi Mutant tehlikesine karşı silahlandırılmış diğer pilotlarla "önce dayak sonra dost" düşüncesinde çarpışıp bir yandan evreni kurtarmaya gidiyoruz. Bu pilotlar arasında nedense [spoiler] koca memeli karpuz kadın [/spoiler] var. Hikayesi Anime-vari, tatlış, iyi, diyaloglar bazen komik, olabildiğince klişe ama kendi içinde tutarlı ve başladığı hikayeyi bitiriyor.
Oynanış kısmında ise bölüm seçme ekranı olarak uzayda araçla gezip gezegenleri keşfetmek, ilerleyen kısımlarda ne olacak diye merak uyandırıyor. Aracımız çok ufak ve hareket kabiliyeti çok fazla, piksel dizaynı eski tutup oynanışı güncel ve akıcı yaptıkları için örnek alınası bir oyundur. Hareket yetenekleri çeşit çeşit olsa da saldırı yeteneklerini az tutmuşlar. Bu yüzden oyun başında ne ise sonlarda da aynı gibiyiz . Bölüm dizaynları basit ve tek düze tutulmuş. Sıkıcı değil ama çeşitlilik katmamışlar. Haliyle yetenekleri daha aktif kullanabileceğimiz engeller koymak yerine kısa tutmuşlar içeriği. Genel olarak düşman çeşitliliği makul lakin tehlikeli değiller. Bölüm sonu canavarları göz korkutucu ama onlarda etkili bir tehdit değiller.
Bir de karakterimiz araçtan inebiliyor ve izometrik kamera açısıyla oynanan farklı kısımları mevcut. Oyunun ilk yarısında bu içerik çok keyifli. Özellikle silah çeşitliliği çok güzel. Bu oynanışta da düşmanlar çok tırt ama bölüm sonu canavarları çok keyifli. Zorlayıcı ve tekrar etmiyor. Bu oynanış tarzının bölüm dizaynında yaratıcı fikirler var ama kısa ve basit tutulmuş.
Benim sıkıntı gördüğüm garip bir durum ses dizaynında mevcut. Aracın normal ateş ses efekti çok tiz ve tekrarlıyor. Boğazda yaşanan yanma hissini kulaklarınızda hissedebilirsiniz. Diğer ve bence en büyük sıkıntı ise oyunun sonlarında [spoiler] tüm yeteneklerimiz bir müddet gidiyor ve çaresizce hayatta kalmaya çalıştığımız [/spoiler] bölümlere sokuyor. Oyunun temposunu düşürüyor ve "ben ne halt yemeye bu kadar yükseltme topladım" diye isyan ederken buluyorum kendimi. Platform, aksiyon, macera olan bu oyun kendi türü için çeşitli ve keyifli bir içerik sunuyor. Yaratıcı ve farklı fikirler barındırsa da potansiyelini kullanamadığını düşündüğüm için bu oyun türünü sevenlere önerilir. Puanım [b] 60/100 [/b]
残疾小人跳梯子摔下去就死我忍了......
透明路径水道跑酷我忍了......
碰到就死时间裂缝我忍了......
Boss轮战素材复用前面打过的再全打一遍我忍了......
马拉松星球Boss动不动就吞怪回血我忍了......
但是最后能把残疾女主放出来长距离跑酷和Boss战我是真的忍无可忍。好不容易熬到二代终于尼玛的不用再忍受一代那狗屎一样的运动惯性和跳跃手感但是拟人小人仍旧做的他妈的跟得了骨质酥松一样稍微高点儿就能摔死随便一个怪就能打出硬直。如果大部分时间是坐在车里偶尔出来活动一下刷刷存在感也就算了但是偏要乐此不疲的搞出比一代多的多得多的殊不知对玩家几乎完全是负面反馈的跑酷场景，那我只能说一句NMSL。
真的是2019年了做到二代还在抱着尼玛上个世纪九十年代的思路去做尼玛的横板像素平台游戏那尼玛真是这辈子都有了，美其名曰游戏机制实则狗屎一坨只能给玩家带来负面反馈，虽然也不是没有比如跨星系旅行，地牢、战车传送门之类的机制优化的进步，但就算是这点进步相对于整个游戏里令人烦闷的糟粕那简直是不值一提。
真是越往后玩越让人感到糟心的二代，哪怕是残疾如一代的小人男主也只是在大后期跳台爬梯子搞战车的那一段让我稍微卡了那么一会儿。要不是看在三部曲女主伊芙的份上你这游戏只配被我打入死亡名单里去。
Механики, локации, пушки - устраивает почти все... Кроме диалогов... Разработчики тут налажали. Их слишком много и в них персонажи то жалеют друг друга, то говорят и повторяют ну очень очевидные вещи, короче в мультиках бывают и то получше сценарии. А самое главное их нельзя уменьшить в количестве или скипнуть кнопкой... Ну можно же было сделать, чтобы на 1 диалог помещалось больше 2 строчек... Проиграл боссу... Ничего страшного... Тебе же нравится каждый раз пропускать 40 диалогов, кликая 40 раз на пробел. Или на середине уровня герои всыпают диалоги, что тоже раздражает. Из-за этого получать удовольствие от игры тяжело, когда геймплей постоянно прерывается. Ведь в играх такого жанра, обычно сюжет всегда поверхностно делают и уделяют внимание геймплею, а тут половина игры это визуальная новелла. И по поводу сложности, претензий нет. Она одна и сбалансированная, но ты не сможешь победить какого-то босса, лишь по той причине, что ты не догадался сменить оружие на то, которое легко убивает этого босса. Это бесит. У меня все, надеюсь кому-то будет полезно, спасибо за внимание.
超惑星战记ZERO系列中我最喜欢的一作。
游戏体验非常顺畅，道具收集也有显示方便查漏补缺，结尾的boss战更是系列最热血的一战。
只是人形态从四格像素的高度落下会直接摔死，让人非常难绷。
这个问题在最后一关非常影响体验，算是白璧微瑕。
比第一代垃圾,不建议玩
Bem mais difícil que o primeiro e o dobro de diversão também.
O jogo já se encontra em PT-BR. Então pode jogar de boas.
*JOGABILIDADE*
Não espere nenhuma diferença da jogabilidade do primeiro com o segundo jogo. Os controles são iguais, com a adição de novas habilidade e sistemas.
*MÚSICAS*
Tirando a música de introdução que é bem chiquete, o resto não fixa tanto na cabeça. Compõe bem o ambiente, mas não será algo memorável.
*DICA*
Vale lembra que para ter o final verdadeiro, assim como no anterior, é preciso pegar todos os itens. Então fique esperto e não deixa nada para trás.
*ENREDO*
É uma continuação do final verdadeiro do primeiro game. Que é conquistado pegando todos os itens.
Nossa navegado é infectada com a mutação por conta do ocorrido no final do anterior. Agora, o objetivo é viajar pelo espaço até o planeta natal de Eve e assim conseguir cura-la. Para isso, precisaram passar por planetas, asteroides e dimensões diversas, além de uma um capítulo na história dessa mutação espacial.
*RESUMO*
O jogo é uma ótima continuação do anterior e diverte bastante. Não deixa nada a deseja em comparação ao anterior e dá deixa empolgado para uma continuação, que existe.
*NOTA*
7,2/10
where's the destroyer mode tho.......
游戏是好游戏，但是后面即死裂隙是谁想出来的，走着走着一不小心碰了下直接秒杀，回到十分钟之前的存档位置，我只能说幽默，除去这个，没有任何缺点。
二代做的最好，很多痛点相比于一代算是彻底改善了，但是与此同时还把主角的超模枪给削了，但是无伤大雅
里面各个地图的探索感都有所差异，但是部分关卡也是有点毒，流程也是实打实的长
新加入的主角的反击系统占了小人战的主导地位，很多关卡就纯靠反击的，但是比起原始的操作手感，这个改动也算得上好
Very awful game design choices, almost mean spirited in a way. I have never played a plat former with such terrible game play and game design choices throughout.
Cons:
- Sub weapons are a burden, not a bonus.
- Fall damage for the Jason sections. Cause jason cant catch ladders if you hold right, so you have to awkwardly tap inputs so you can tap up at the perfect time. And if you dont? well ♥♥♥♥ you, die from fall damage.
- Level design is in spite of the player, and every upgrade will feel like a punishment as you will be forced into some the most insulting platforming sections designed to waste your time. I play metroidvanias/search action and love challenging back tracking... This was like someone telling you that you got the wrong groceries at the store and you had to go back to the store... and the store forced you to go barefoot while broken glass litters the floor.
- The story is nonsense, and I couldnt be ♥♥♥♥♥♥ to care about any of these characters. (I got the true ending in case, and it was still super contrived.)
Pros:
- None, the music sucked ass too.
My advice? play the first Blaster Master Zero and stop there. Dont worry about the cliffhanger cause nothing gets resolved anyway.
2/10 simply because it boots, not cause there was any enjoyment.
개쩌는 전차타고 우주돌아다니는 갓겜
1편보다 발전한부분이 많아서 좋았다
난이도도 많이 올랐다
More of the same.
While Blaster Master Zero 2 does expand on the story and adds new planets and characters, it still feels like a stretched-out continuation of the first game. Gameplay mechanics remain largely unchanged, and by the second half I found myself going through the motions just to see how the plot wraps up.
It’s not a bad game, just one that could have been a DLC or part of a larger, more cohesive title.
If you're not invested in the story, you're not missing much. Thumbs down. Only recommended if you really want to see what happens next in the plot.
Es un juego increíble mejora todo del primero, pero dejo unos consejos una conversación algo random con eve que casi nadie ve es la que explica que el disparo cargado de tu pistola (el penúltimo ataque) puede cambiar de elemento con el arma secundaria de fuego, hielo o rayo equipada, útil para quemar o electrocutar ciertos enemigos o terreno sin gastar las minas y bombas.
Hay un mundo con desierto muchos secretos están en la arena movediza solo deja que el tanque se hunda apenas llegues muchos pasan el mapa que esta hay y para no morir mira tu mapa por la linea de habitación continua pero abajo para no fallar tanto encontrando el pozo correcto.
Y EL FINAL no es con el 100% de sofia como antes es con las misiones secundarias de tus aliados para tener los dos finales seguidos deja 1 misión sin completar para tener los 2 logros, pero esta otra cuestión no puedes volver atrás si empiezas el final verdadero así que como no tengas tu tanque completo te tocara desde cero por el logro porque hay mejoras extra que suman con todas las normales en ese final.
Ps: habla con eve en cada combate con un jefe y al llegar a cada mundo principal nuevo por pistas de debilidades y lore sobre todo en los humanoides.
This series deserves so much attention it's not even funny.
While it strains your patience at times, this is an amazing turnaround from the hilariously busted original game. Challenging and cheesy in equal measure.
Maior, mais desafiador, mais imersivo, mais divertido, Blaster master zero 2 dá uma aula em como fazer uma continuação de respeito, simplesmente pega as pequenas coisas que prestam do primeiro game e fazem um show aqui nesse segundo, a experiência e historia são simplesmente me perdoem o a palavreado mas DO CARALHO, controlar a Sophia é ótimo, os designs das fases e dos inimigos também melhoraram consideravelmente, os bosses estão divertidos e a historia está uma delicinha, sendo sincero se não fosse pra você ter um contexto inicial de quem e oq são os nossos personagens principais eu indicaria você começar diretamente pelo segundo, dito isso, vale super a compra, aguarde uma promoçãozinha e meta tiro em mutante safado
The addition of space travel opens up the series to so many new creative ideas, not just in terms of visuals, but level size and gameplay. I love that there are puzzle planets along side the typical dungeons, they can be a little annoying but break up the pacing nicely. The characters are also so charming, efficient and cute writing just like the first game complete with great pixel art.
💋
It's fun!
Шикарное продолжение первой части игры.Графика улучшилась, были добавлены новые механики, сюжет раскрутили по полной. Добавились такие же пилоты что и гг. Диалоги смотрел через переводчик.
Достижения, не связанные с боссами арены, очень сложно выполнить, без вики непонятно как проходить на хорошую концовку.
Из минусов не понятно куда делись улучшения из первой части.
I was already annoyed by the cookie cutter anime BS they veneered onto a childhood fav game of mine. It’s actually painful how trope-y the story becomes. The improved and more nuanced gameplay made it worthwhile up until the end where you’re forced into some of the most tedious and infuriating platforming imaginable. Also the “final” boss fight was abysmally unfun and incredibly tedious.
I can't use my controller in this game.
BMZ2 is a largely faithful follow-up to BMZ1, with the same core gameplay being split between side-view platforming environments and top-down dungeon exploration. However, it innovates with enough new features to prevent it from feeling like a simple retread of the previous instalment. Namely, it introduces a new "Blast Counter" that briefly slows time while simultaneously riposting an enemy attack, a litany of planetoids that can be discovered for more exploration and upgrades, various new characters (mostly fellow MA pilots), a Gaia-system mechanic that restores SP when landing from a sufficient drop, and a more appreciable travel system in the form of a spacial world map that allows you to traverse to-and-fro different planets and planetoids — something that makes the backtracking substantially less tedious than it was in BMZ1.
BMZ2 also contains an expanded narrative, with the impact of the mutant invasion of the different planets across each sector being relayed to you very clearly by both the environment and NPC dialogue. The more poignant developments, however, are reserved for the True Ending content, and may be missed if the player has skimped on optional tasks given by the other MA pilots.
My foremost complaint with this sequel is that it still carries the same excessive fall damage mechanic as BMZ1 did, despite it really not belonging in a platformer, being easily supplanted by bottomless pits or hazards. Thankfully, most platforming sections still take place in the SOPHIA, but Jason and [spoiler]Eve[/spoiler] still have sections where you will explore on-foot for an extended time, where drops of just over a metre instantly kill you from full HP, making you wonder if people in this universe have legs made of jelly.
Recommend this game to anyone who already played and enjoyed BMZ1.
I played the first Blaster Master Zero on my 3DS a few years back. This was more of a typical platformer rather than the lite metroidvania the first but honestly for the better. Very run 10 hour romp and a good successor to the first. Gonna snag 3 on sale next.
For fans of retro games and indie retro-style, both the first and second parts are a great choice. I haven't played the third one yet, but I definitely will.
While it is an amazing game that expands beautifully on the mechanics and story of the first, I do have some complaints. The difficulty can range from frustratingly difficult to disappointingly easy, especially near the end.
I found the new Gaia system very fun and intuitive, I love how it forces you to take action to refill your SP Meter, whereas the first game encouraged you to wait.
I also loved Jason's counter mechanic, though I do wish there were more options for it. I found the 3rd counter attack to be completely useless outside of the final Leibniz fight. Also, I felt like the counter meter took far too long to recharge.
While I miss the blaster upgrades from the first game, especially the Strike mode, the new blaster levels are an improvement, in my opinion. The level 8 blaster loses power if you fire it rapidly, which is a good balance compared to the first game, where the level 8 blaster trivialized any Boss that Jason fought, aside from the true final boss. Though I will admit it does diminish the satisfaction of working your way up to level 8, which is much harder in this game because the upgrades drop far less frequently.
One of the best improvements though? Each planet has a small checklist of items that you want to unlock, which is amazing, even though you don't really need all of the upgrades. This feature really should've been in the first game, where you needed every upgrade to get the true ending.
It was very annoying at times to complete the 3 fetch quests, which are required to obtain the true ending, but it was 100% worth it, especially during the final tank sequence's final attack.
While I find it frustrating that both games end before Jason and Sophia can finish what they're about to say, I didn't really need to hear (or read, I guess) either of them confess, as their actions already invoke their love for each other. Though it would still be nice to see them say it.
Not quite as good as the first game in my opinion but the art improved. However it is more difficult than the first game (unless you play destroyer mode) which is nice. I wish they would have added more extras like boss rush and destroyer mode (hard mode) from the first game.
Anyway, I don't mean to make the game sound bad because it's not. Like the first game I also had a BLAST with blaster master zero 2!
3部里最好玩的一部，伟大
好玩是真的好玩，引导是真的少，特别中间的向下钻拧螺丝和最后的时间缓慢，没点提示差点给我绕洪文了。不过比一代感觉丰富了不少
这一作比上一作优化了很多，内容丰富了不少，就是一些即死地形玩的很恼火，总体还是很好玩的。
很好2代。找借口封印了1代几个超模武装，人肉战不再无脑突突。车轮战各种装备也挺机制打起来带点技巧。
不过我一定要吐槽下F区的次元裂缝，比始祖洛克人地刺害恶心了，加上小人怕摔的传统，连着一击毙命都快自闭了
Blaster Master Zero 2 is the follow up to the fantastic original Blaster Master Zero, including the original gameplay of the previous title, but this time, more refined and polished,. The two main additions is the SP Impact feature for G-Sophia and Jason's new counter attack.
When G-Sophia falls from a great height, the tank will regain a portion of SP. The higher the drop, the bigger the SP recharge. This can help in situations where there aren't many big SP capsule drops, with some platforms in the position for you to farm out SP.
Jason's new counter mechanic took some time to fully understand, but once you figure it out, it's such an awesome addition. Enemies will be highlighted when they're about to attack, which gives Jason the chance to dodge out of the way and piece the enemy with a blaster shot that can keep them stunned. The animation, sfx and design feel so good and makes it cooler than it has any right to be.
Zero 2 also saw a change in level progression. Gone are the liner area to area stages, and now enter a space map. You're able to explore planets, a space-ship and smaller planets. Main planets and the space-ship are hard to miss, however smaller planets surround the area, and can be discovered from coordinates found on the main locations or other smaller planets, leading to unlockable abilities for Jason and G-Sophia.
Music is great. Story is a nice continuation from the original. Fantastic game. Go play it!
Holy peak
PEAK FICTION it blasted my master till i zeroed two
好丸
An Improvement on the first game in almost every way, a must play if you enjoyed the first , the only real gripe i have is the ladders, unless you know the trick that the game doesn't really hint to you about them you can have a miserable time with them.
Assuming you've played Blaster Master Zero 1, this game is an upgrade overall from this first game, although the lack of the somewhat niche multiplayer mode from the first game is a bit disappointing. Overall, I highly recommend this game, it's a solid 8.5/10. Did a 100% playthrough which probably took 12 hours or so.
You finally have some proper mobility to move around the areas where you control Jason directly, which is much appreciated. You don't have a poorly made hard mode that was way more frustrating than fun to 100% the game this time around. There are some missable achievements if you don't follow a guide, but you can do everything in one play through, as long as you copy your save file before the last set of stages so you can get the bad and good ending properly.
I didn't have a chance to play Copen from the Illuminous Avenger series for the DLC as of now, but playing through Empress from Dragon Marked for Death was pretty fun, her vehicle plays the same as Sophia, but her human form has a different arsenal of moves completely, include upgrades which is great.
A great game runied by tedious level ddesign and instant death platforming. Towards the end of the game a single mistake forces you having to do the same sections over and over again, I was 90 percent done with the game and I had enough.
Blaster Master Zero 2
战车操作性提升，主角性能提升，比起一代更偏动作，也更好玩
Juegazo de acción y aventura con un estilo retro. En él, controlas a Jason y su tanque "Sophia" mientras exploras un mundo lleno de enemigos y jefes. La jugabilidad alterna entre momentos en los que manejas el tanque en 2D y otros en los que exploras desde una vista aerea, el juego tiene gráficos en pixel art muy bonitos, una música pegajosa y una dificultad justa que no es ni demasiado fácil ni muy difícil. Si te gustan los juegos clásicos con una mezcla de acción y exploración vas a disfrutar mucho Blaster Master Zero 2.
Un juego increiblemente bueno, para mi es el mejor de los 3 en cuento gameplay con una gran historia, totalmente recomendada
A improvement over the first in, pretty much everyway.
With more silly as well with the introduction of the new characters.
接續一代真．結局的劇情，故事從地球拓展到宇宙了~
畫面進化很多，人物也畫的很不錯看，萬能車依舊沒什麼太大改變，人物系統倒是多了可以迴避攻擊的反擊手段，讓主角更加容易迴避敵方攻擊，但也因為這個，難度瞬間可以說降到最低點，關卡部份改成一個行星就是一大關或是一小關，所以常常要在宇宙遊走~
在探索方面稍微比不是上一代的有趣，要思考的地方可以說沒有，可能在進關卡就可以知道有什麼素材沒拿，所以不會去思考可能哪裡漏掉~
最後…這代蠻多熱血好聽的bgm，個人最喜歡這首『Rally Together!』，劇情上搭的很完美熱血，而且在進入最後真．結局的路線會操控女角伊芙，可惜通關後沒有模式可以全程控制這角色(唉~)
A game I didn't realize existed after playing Blaster Master: Zero on the Switch years ago, but was glad to find out more of it is around.
Nothing crazy, but a build up upon the story of BMZ 1. New traversal mechanics for the tank and a parry system when on foot, BMZ 2 was a fun experience for me. I enjoyed the enemies and bosses, none were ever too difficult, as by the end of the game you have many different ways to avoid damage and punish the opponent.
I enjoyed setting off into space and using the planets as different biomes and content sections. New mechanics made the game fresh enough for a sequel playthrough. I don't really have much negative to say; a short, satisfying experience.
Bought on sale for $5, and finished the game in 9 hours on my Steam deck. An easy recommend for those who played the fist game.
20/10 no tengo palabras para describir lo bello de esta trilogia
全成就了，比一代好玩很多。aq手感也很好，赞
真正的神作，伟大无需多言，没把三部全部玩过的人注定只能度过一个悲惨的人生
跟前作比起來在boss fight的設計上好了很多，挺有趣的
但地圖設計反而是更爛了，跑的途中真的挺痛苦
劇情就一般般沒有甚麼特點
This sequel is a significant step up from the first remake. The animations, sprites and screen transitions are way smoother and better than in the first game, while staying close to the original NES style.
比一代多了很多内容，优化了一代的很多槽点，一直都有新玩意，难度提升了很多，双方互相拯救太感动了，Eve好可爱wwww
Во вторую часть лучше не играть не пройдя первую, в самом начале спойлеры к первой игре
相比于一代增加了很多玩法，boss战也更有趣了，但是也变得更难了，可惜我比那个没有打一代的困难模式，不然可能会有更好的体验
打完后追加一下，其实一开始我不知道怎么打真结局，后来迷路了就碰巧回去做支线了，最后是真的神，不过我还是想吐槽一下这个地图设计也太难了吧。
Una obra maestra !
超惑星Z巅峰之作，主要感觉不孤独，三太悲情了
Игра довольно неплохая. Но рекомендовать ее я не стану. По причине довольно странной. В данный момент игра не запускается. Возможно при переустановке Виндоус были потеряны какие-то библиотеки времен Палеолита. Т.е. термин плаг энд плэй отсутствует.
Tomas todo lo bueno de la primera entrega y le agregas mas sabor con las nuevas mecanicas, ya solo me falta jugar su ultima entrega de la saga Zero, pero recomiendo este y el primero, un juego accesible y divertido
with my little knowledge of the blaster master series prior to these games, at least upon first play, i was expecting this game to be in some way related to the other blaster master 2. and i have never been so glad to be wrong, because this game is amazing. the tech from BMZ1 has only levelled up, combat has evolved further, i didn't think it could get better until it did.
the story, too, is even better, continuing from where the last one left off in the perfect way. the ending was, frankly, stellar. all the characters we meet, too, are frankly pretty charming, i love all of them.
definitely play the first one first though.
Un juego hermoso, una historia hermosa, jugabilidad hermosa, un arte y diseño que va mas haya de lo hermoso...
Sin duda un juego que nunca olvidare. Ansioso por jugar la tercera entrega, se que superara aun mas mis expectativas y eso que ya son infinitamente altas.
tambien me gusta pero mas que el primero
10/10 Glad a continuation of blastermaster was made and a story was added
My favorite of trilogy. Less DLC than the first game, but getting to fly around space is tons of fun and makes the game feel lived in. Also, RETRO FOR LIFE!!!
Incorrect resolution scaling makes Blaster Master Zero 2 blurry and not pixel perfect. You can clearly see the difference by toggling fullscreen mode ON/OFF. It's a known issue that has already been discussed on the Community Hub before and according to other players, the only way to try and improve this is by using Lossless Scaling. Same issue happens with Blaster Master Zero 3 and Dragon Marked For Death. Look after the console versions instead.
Obviously you should play BMZ1 before you play this one due to there being a connected story. I recently finished the entire trilogy and wanted to share some thoughts on what made each of them good. BMZ2 is a bit of a surprising departure from what one may expect from Blaster Master and changes zones being connected to each other to separating Areas through space travel where you Blast Off into space from launch pads and fly to where you need to go. This serves as a sneaky middleground between BMZ1's lack of fast travel and not giving lazy fast travel in this game, instead you spend a little time moving to different areas through space flight on a map. This game adds some much needed collection stats for each area and planet you visit, so that you can tell if you are missing a specific item when going for 100% at a glance when skimming through areas to figure out where to go next.
The first game had a problem in the overhead areas where you got OP and killed everything way too easy with a max powered weapon 90% of the time, so the devs decided to make it so that several guns get weaker as you shoot them in rapid succession, starting the attempts at making the combat a bit more engaging and diverse and ultimately pushes a player to get comfortable with at least 2-3 weapons.
Two new shortcut buttons have been added for both on foot and tank modes, where you can assign skills and weapons to them without having to manually cycle. Once you get comfortable and find a rotation of 3 things you like and efficiently switch to a 4th after some practice, you'll begin to wonder how in the world you lived without it in the first game. You will really want these since an active effort was made to up the difficulty of the game since BMZ1 across the board. Most of the game isn't TOO hard but there are a few parts that may surprise you and you really gotta sit up and focus/pay attention. You can for a good amount of the game but THOSE parts, this game really makes you put on your big boy pants and remind you that this is a game that demands your full attention to finish.
Exploration and atmosphere is this game's greatest strength I feel, but I guess that having a game in space helps with that a lot. Combat is still iffy but at least it is better than BMZ1's combat which is simply passable. This game basically takes the first game and glazes on a bunch of new stuff never done in a Blaster Master game up to this point and makes it surprisingly innovative for the franchise. Letting people ooze in the space travel and atmosphere instead of the run of the mill Blaster Master backtracking in older games was such a smart decision, you spend more time engaged here as a result. It makes BMZ2 feel bigger than the other games in scope, and honestly I can see it going either way with someone saying BMZ2 or BMZ3 being their favorites, BMZ2 being so innovative definitely is the most fun thing about it and a very high recommend after finishing the first game.
this is where the story of this series starts to get wack.
still a pretty good game, lots of Qol improvements of issues in the first game
Extremely recommended, like its prequel, now I'm on the third game. >:3
