Mega Man 7 [SNES] No Damage Playthrough

Played by Zenith.

This time around I decided to fight the robot masters buster-only (except for Slash Man, since it was fun to make a fool of him from the get-go), for a little while, since there is greater attention to detail in their patterns than was found in the previous two titles (especially Freeze Man, since he keeps you on your toes at all times). Another reason for this is because using weakness weapons in this game utterly neutralizes the majority of them and makes for a repetitive and unpleasant viewing experience. I also opted to collect all of the items in the game, for completion's sake.

Before I planned this run, I was not aware that you could slide through Spring Man's legs just after he lands without taking damage, so I took advantage of this here.

The charged shot was nerfed in this game, from the usual three damage points down to two, so I didn't emphasize using it much on the standard enemies. Plus, the sound effect for it is absolutely ear-grating.

Bass' first Wily Stage fight is an absolute monster. Any time you are aligned with him vertically, he will fire off a shot at you, so you need to make sure there is enough distance from him any time you cross his path. The silver lining to the black clouds here is that he goes down very fast with the charged super adapter fist, but the black cloud is that Mega Man is unable to slide while in that transformation. It's pretty easy to get yourself cornered and, overall, it's more difficult than the final Wily fight to not get hit, actually.
