8.5/10 It is an awesome "game" but at least for me it crashes constantly, char creation is really a difficult task and it lacks of a multiplayer.
i mean, it does have its issues but out of all i'd give it a 8.9/10 for how many possibilities it creates
also closed source
9.5/10 I can download basically anything. But lose 0.5 points cuz of the seldom crashes.
I guess 10/10 because of it's infinite possibilities and the fact that it's a legitimate fighting game engine
7/10 for all the problems i had with version specific characters, especially those requiring winmugen to even be selectable.
The potential of the mugen is excellent, I think a 9 out of 10 is a correct evaluation
The problem, if anything, comes from the fact that this potential is exploited very well by a few, very few authors
7/10 because:
- Compiling everything for your build can be tedious
- Making characters can be even more tedious (but can have a rewarding payoff, as with the above)
- Elecbyte's gone and MUGEN's closed source
7/10
In general is a game that can last you forever, but the big number of bugs and gamebreaking glitches make me give it a 7.
I honestly give it a 7-8 out of 10
The reasons why are
The VAST AMOUNT of customization and expression creators and players have
The ablilty to edit and add seemingly anything you want
The wide variety of characters and gameplay styles represented
However, a few bad things are the fact there's no online mode, and some of the characters are either badly designed, or just don't work
i would give it a 9.1/10.
I would just rate it as 9/10 overall. MUGEN is just great and i love it, but putting in music, characters , stages, and screen packs has a little learning curve. Other than that, the program is super fun and love the customization possibilities it can have.
7/10 because it is very flexible but sometimes can be very hard to work with
maybe I would give each Mugen engine a different rating:
Dos Era (Based on the engines I have played):
Mugen 01.01.2000: 10/10
Mugen 31.07.2000: 10/10
Mugen 01.04.2001: 6/10 (The removal of Team Co-Op into Team Arcade and Team Versus was not to my liking)
Mugen 14.04.2001: 7/10 (Glad to see Team Co-op back, but I prefer the older version's team menu)
winMugen (Rouhei's hack): 6/10 (playing halfway through and it keep on freezing during match unless if I use usb controller to play)
WinMugen Plus: 6/10 (Even with the new hi-resolution enhancement, the freezing during match problem is still not fix)
Mugen 1.0: 7/10 (freezing during match problem is fixed, but new problem arise when playing halfway through, it cause sudden close down depending on the roster)
Mugen 1.1: 7/10 (Same reason as Mugen 1.0)
I feel like the biggest problem is the random crash problem occurs in the Mugen engine
7/10. Many characters are great if you know where to look but it isnīt that easy to get into it, I know from experience.
10/10 it has lots of posibilities and is free, also it has an active community, definetively 10/10
i would rate it 11/10 because it actually made my imagination come true. i never thought i could imagine playing with different characters also kudos to Mugen creators
In all honesty, I would give M.U.G.E.N a solid 7.5 in my opinion, It's a really good game engine, it's influence on fighting games seems rather interesting as you can do whatever u want with it, and no copy of MUGEN is the same since everyone has a different style and in some case rather unique. SaltyBet is sorta like the main ambassador for M.U.G.E.N as a whole as that's where I believe most people came from and some big YouTubers even participate in the betting site, I might be wrong here so feel free to correct me on this. Even the history behind M.U.G.E.N is interesting and how the creator(s) just left this behind for maybe other projects. People make dedicated site JUST for this engine alone since the original site is down. This proves that despite some toxic situations that arrive, the community is very strong in many ways. I tried the engine, download some characters, and it was satisfying. I had a good time with it. can't give this a 10 because there are problems I don't think are gonna fixed anytime soon, first being that the more character you download the more it just loads. 1000+ characters and stages can take up to several minutes to sometimes an hour to load as soon as you open the .exe file. second, that it's somewhat complicated to add them to M.U.G.E.N without knowing how to edit the .def files unless you can convert .def or .cfg to something like notepad or the more advanced version Notepad++ which uses the language C++. Overall, it's a pretty good thing to have when you're bored.
10/10. there's alot of good characters, good stages, and you can have thousands of characters and stages available as far as i know
9/10. Sure it has some hiccups, but it runs really well. And you have this very website and some of the best creators that it has to offer to make it even better!
So whenever you can, give them your thanks!
8/10. A great game but there are some minuses.
