Rosenkreuzstilette - Mega Man References

[XStrifeX667]

i literally cannot believe how many things this game has got away with, i mean it looks like a fab game but come on, megaman is a pioneer of gaming. i can only asume that the guys who made the game are capcom who invented megaman or another company who created the game as a tribute to megaman, because there is no way the could get away with everthing without burying themselves legally ha

[Zectro15Tero]

It's really sad that some desighers don't have a brain to come up with their own ideas. This is Megaman Castlevania.

[Zectro15Tero]

What I don't get is if it's Japanese, why is most of those names and words German.

[Entsetzen1984]

WHERE CAN I BUY THIS GAME????



[Camposkpo]

References? The games is a Megaman Parody lol

[metalgearhunterZ]

I'd Play RosenKreuzstilette any day before I play Megaman... sorry though.

[Camposkpo]

@metalgearhunterZ Should try Megaman instead... it's a lot more complex. That game is aufully easy.

[RubilacEx]

Seeing as the game is unashamedly a wholesale copy of Mega Man, it seems a little pointless to enumerate the similarities.

[Nintendokid27]

So, this game is basically a ripoff of Mega Man?

[SpiralPegasus]

Please pardon my ignorance but isn't ABSOLUTELY EVERY SINGLE THING a Mega Man reference?

Except for the characters, the plotline and maybe the locations...

[Camposkpo]

@SpiralPegasus Even the music... what is not a Megaman theme, comes always from some Megaman hack LOL

[SpiralPegasus]

@Camposkpo Yeah, agreed.

Mega Mari is a parody of Mega Man, just like Mega Mari was before it, so it's kinda... no, wait, absolutely obvious that almost everything is going to be Mega Man here and Mega Man there.

[stayles1990]

I can´t defeat Trauare

[TranceCore3]

of course there are mega man references. It's a fucking mega man clone. the entire game is a mega man reference.

[stayles1990]

Is Rosenkreuzstillete a german game?! Because I am from Germany and the title is pretty german on english it´s called Rosecross - (stillete?) What is this game please tell me :D

[carbajosa123]

@stayles1990 It is Rosenkreuzstilette, which means Blade of the Rose Cross (Stilette means Blade) If you want the game, just send me a PM and I'll send you a FULL game. Most awesome megaman clone ever! And it has Castlevania references too~

[NARFNra]

Basically, the game is really a Megaman game, with different characters.

[Valis77]

sont forget in treuare stage when you get liliy treasure A.K.A Divemans stage.

[ninjatalos]

Freudia=bass thats why she rocks

[GenericSteve764]

This game deserves to be more popular.

[ViperAcidZX]

Spirita = RockMan Lilli = Navi Freudia = Axel? Zorne = Bomberman Trauare = Air Man Luste = Metal Man Grolla = Zero Sichte = Dio Brando Liebea = Toad Man Schwer-Muta = Wood Man Count Michael Zeppelin = Heat Man Iris = Wily + Lumine

[BrawlerGamma]

NO!! spek's right about beat but... Sichte = Flash Man! duh! and spek's also right about Zeppelin being Dracula, and also, Thanatos = Death, and i heard from a reliable source, i dont know for myself, i must check, but Trauare = Leviathen from MegaMan Zero, ill have to confirm that one, though... OH! and Freudia's Protoman! duh, remember, from MM5, i think, and the scene after Sepperin, and the cross tank? yeah...

[ViperAcidZX]

@BrawlerGamma

Have you even heard of Dio Brando? Because Sichte is the homage to him (along with other characters from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure). Count Zeppelin actually also a reference to Scythe Master from Nitro+'s Phantom of Inferno. Look at the Rosenkreuzstilette Wiki sometime...

[BrawlerGamma]

@ViperAcidZX i do read the wiki on occasion, and regardless of rather or not what you say is true, im also right, you cant deny that Sichte's attack pattern is incredibly similar to Flash Man's (nearly identical), and Zeppelin/Sepperin, again, i dont know enough to argue, but, Scythe Master? are you sure you dont mean Thanatos? regardless, im not saying your wrong, but im defininetely not saying im completely wrong!

[ViperAcidZX]

No, I'm talking about Scythe Master from Nitro+'s visual novel, Phantom of Inferno (where's TDOMMX when I need him the most). Google "Scythe Master" and compare the similarities between him and WOMI's design for Zeppelin.

[BrawlerGamma]

@ViperAcidZX okay... he looks similar... your point? his pattern is still based off Heat Man/Dracula... and he's a vampire... and he trasforms into a giant demon... and attacks with fire...

[killerb255]

@ViperAcidZX

Sichte needs a steamroller in Freudenstachel.

[WillBFugly]

Isnt the whole game supposed to be Megaman-esque?

[BrawlerGamma]

yes, but they threw in a buncha other references, too; Castlevania, Bomberman, things i probably wouldnt recognise, Zelda (It's in Grolla's intro), and a ton of stuff in the game over screens! the sequel, RKS Freudenstachel, Grolla's new stage a ton of Ghosts 'n Goblins references!!

[destinysaiyan014]

I didn't see the batton comparison or the mettaur they're also obviously megaman even if they don't use the sprites

[TwilightPrince123]

Very good in pointing those out.

[Reyalejandro13]

The Giant Snail is Clearly a Turtle in RKS.

Also, There's a part in One of Iris's Stages where you fall upside-down through a spike pit that happens in Bubbleman's stage in whatever game he's in(I wanna say mm2), though right-side up.

[realchingon1]

good, now castlevania references!!!

[SyrePreddY]

I didn't play any castlevania games :) so someone else gotta figure those out...

[Syfa]

Some of the monsters, Death and Dracula ect.

There's a lot of commonality in the bosses too.

[TrickMasterMint]

- The comparison at 3:02 is quite a stretch.

- You left out Lilli's Item, which is one of the most obvious.

- Trauare's attack pattern is similar to Air Man's and exhibits the same weakness.

Among others. Also, the titles of the songs are both incorrect.

[SyrePreddY]

- not all references are that obvious, you know?

- because Lily is an obvious reference I intended to leave her out

- thats correct, nice find.

And the titles of the Music are completely correct, please check the official soundtrack again.

[TrickMasterMint]

There is no official soundtrack. The first song, the Iris boss fortress theme, is 終末の園 (roughly translated means "The Final Place") by the music artist D-zen (who also goes under the name Vampire Revolution), from his album PowderMOON.

[TrickMasterMint]

The second song, the title screen theme, is "AM Fight No. 1" by the music artist AM3, who also did various other themes in the game, such as the boss music (simply titled "03" on his website), Liebea's stage (titled "30"), and Freudia's theme (titled "22").

[SyrePreddY]

Please refer to Rockman Perfect Memories (RockmanPM) for the official soundtrack. It has german titles for the tracks which is pretty RKS like and thus I take it as the official one.

[TrickMasterMint]

I figured as much. The issue is that the Rockman Perfect Memories gamerip soundtrack has glaring flaws, such as improper artist tags, varying quality, and the fact that one entire track has been left out. I have been attempting to compile a real RKS soundtrack, and if you'd like to hear some of the original songs in their full (and mostly high-quality) forms, send me a line. I'd be happy to oblige. :)

[nickadoo50]

the whole games a reference there i awnsered the question

[deryni21]

isnt that game supposed to be a clone of sorts anyway?

[OmgSuiseiseki]

Yes.

[SyrePreddY]

And the best.

[VendavalEste]

Nice music included.

[SyrePreddY]

seriously...why is the hit counter of the video so rapidly increasing all of a sudden? is there some newspost or report about the vid somewhere or are all viewers just searching YT?

[AkatsukiMinion]

It could be because LuizPrower has recently put up a few videos for this game and this video appears in the related videos box.

[SyrePreddY]

yeah...seems he has quite a viewing audience and this vid appears on top of the similars... ^^

[LuizPrower]

Always willing to give a helping hand, even if it's unintended. *flies away*

[DarkArtistKaiser]

Okay really, why are there so many crosses in the enemies stages?

[SyrePreddY]

you mean real crosses or references?

[DarkArtistKaiser]

Refrences? I mena the crosses in the japanese game. Their everywhere, even the bosses wear them.

[SyrePreddY]

Indeed there are crosses, those are references to the games name (kreuz) and to influences of Castlevania.

[geekgo4]

So, did you do this for MegaMari, too?

[SyrePreddY]

nope. I never played it. I watched a Speedrun of that game on YT but didnt see any MM references in the first place. And RKS rocks way more, anyway :)

[geekgo4]

But the whole game was basically a "Touhou Project" parody of Megaman 2.

You have heard of Touhou Project, haven't you?

[SyrePreddY]

actually, no :)

does anyone have a slighest idea why the video has so many views all of a sudden?!

[OmgSuiseiseki]

Rosen has nothing to do with Touhou

[geekgo4]

I never said it did.

[OmgSuiseiseki]

Oh, Youtube's glitchy comment system made it look like you were talking about Rosen and not Megamari.
