I know of your monthly Mega Man marathons. I vaguely know that you don’t play the games in the same order or possibly even the same series each marathon. But what brings you back to Mega Man every month? It’s not like it’s any new content to you, right? I get wanting to revisit some classic games, but why do it monthly?

I started it many years ago and it became a tradition that I enjoy. It can be stressful being a variety streamer sometimes as you're always looking for new things to do, and sometimes it's hard to be constantly playing new things. There's a comfort in having a part of my stream dedicated towards playing something I love. It's also just fun to have a monthly ritual that people look forward to, and one strength of the Mega Man games is how replayable they are.

It's usually the same, though. Mega Man 1-7 and the 8 Mega Man X games the day after. 1-7 because I can comfortably do those in a day and I don't want to burn myself out too much for MMXMMM the next day, which I consider the main part. Sometimes I'll switch things out like a mod that lets you play as Roll or playing a demake of X8.

The X games are usually done in reverse order because my favs are 1-4 and I got sick of ending the marathon on the ones I dislike instead of ending on a high note.
