Then Elpizo finds the elves and takes them for himself, turns evil because of reasons and goes to where X's body is and destroys it. The reveal between X having a body and the body being destroyed occur so close to each other that there's no impact. Shit pacing and timing.
Elpizo turns into a monster and you kill him. Then, the Dark Elf turns out not to be evil and turns Elpizo into a cyber elf before flying away. Nothing makes sense and the story sucks.
But it doesn't suck as bad as the game hiding cool new powers Zero can get... only if you get an A ranking when beating a level. And you only get one chance per save. Remember how in Mega Man X, when you go into Armored Armadillo's stage you need to hurry and grab that heart before the drill bot destroys the ceiling or you can't grab it again until you restart? Well, that doesn't happen, you can just try again. Not here, though. Lifeless bugmen only. And the abilities are not even worth it. They are circumstantial at best.
Ah, they refer to feeding the cyber elves as "breeding" the cyber elves now. And what in Mega Man Zero cost 2000 e-crystals to level up an elf, now costs 200. It's like somebody play-tested the game once, as opposed to the previous game which got released in pre-alpha state. This certainly was the best Mega Man Zero game of the four of them.
