Okay out the starting gate, Mega Man X7 was the least favorite Mega Man game in the entire series. The way the devs went about the game was completely stupid and idiotic. Why would you make a game in 3D and retire the leader of the Maverick Hunters, the strongest one at that.

I've beaten this game over a million times in the past, I didn't keep it, but I bought it back recently because there's a way I think I can make this game playable despite its flaws.

First off, I've come up with my own theories and strategies regarding the game not to mention how I plan to approach it. Having said that, X is in retirement, it takes 64 rescued reploids for him to unass his throne. But you know what, X being in retirement; leave him there.

Second, Axl. Axl is just an immature, inexperienced X. The adventure is all about Axl anyway and him destroying the 8 Maverick bosses. Axl gets different weapons from the bosses.

Axl gets 3 new guns from killing Tornado Tonion, Vanishing Gungaroo and Flame Hyenard. The rest of his weapons are shot out from his guns, the Axl Bullet.

My theory is that you don't have to stick with just the Axl Bullet to destroy enemies, if anything you can use the G-Launcher because I can remember some enemies or most of them taking significant damage from it.

At this point, Zero is stronger than X. Axl can be made just as well when you find the right reploids who have parts that'll lengthen life and strengthen attack power.

My thing is this, there are 128 reploids that have to be rescued; I would just focus on the ones who have parts especially the life and attack power parts. I used to rescue all 128, but I'm like, "targeting the ones with parts only will make it more worth it".

The reploids without parts, all you're getting is a heartfelt, "thank you". Yeah, that'll make me stronger lol. The reploids with parts are worth risking your life for. Out of the 16 reploids per stage, maybe about a little less than half of them have parts.

I believe that Axl and the weapons he gains along with the parts you get in the game, can make Axl unstoppable. Zero too. I believe that this game can be beaten without X.

Snipe Anteator is a nuisance and one of the most complicated bosses in the game, but I believe that Axl and Zero are the keys to beating him. I mean, if X can kill Snipe Anteator singlehandedly, Zero and Axl can do it with the right parts equipped.

I plan to execute this as soon as I make it around to my PS2 which'll still be a long while but if any of you out there have this game, follow this strategy and tell me exactly what your results from it is.

Actually, I think I'll do this after I beat Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order, I already have to replay Castlevania 3 anyway so why not this too.
