QuoteI finally beat X7 (it took me a long time to beat it: three days). I really was surprised with X.
(Why this is a spoiler? Because it deals with Axl. Maybe this isn\'t a spoiler at all, but to be safe...)
Spoiler (click to toggle)
It was obvious that X had a small internal struggle throughout most of the games but this game make it seem more like... it was eating him from the inside out. As everyone knows, the problem is about how the war is going and if he is doing the right thing. The game also \"says\" that he \"retired\" from hunting.
Zero tries to not care about what X does but when he said something like \"Now that\'s the X I use to know!\", I knew he really want X to keep fighting right by his side than \"give up\". (Thinking on the flipside, Zero want reassurance that he himself is doing the right thing.)
Yes, \"give up\". Although X stopped fighting to think of more peaceful ways, he unpurposely let Mavericks run wild. Zero, even though he loves fighting, can\'t do a job equal to two great Hunters. Rather or not X knew that him \"retiring\" actually hurt the Maverick Hunters or not, I don\'t really know.
The funny (or unfunny) thing is, even if X does not want to fight, he surely DOES NOT want to be replaced. He basically just stands there saying \"We should not do this, and we should not do that\" and the Maverick Hunters are confused on what they should do. Listen to X and try to find a way to end the war by talking or do what they have been doing for hundreds of years, trying to stamp out the Mavericks.
Zero, of course, does not agree with X but being friends with him so long, he doesn\'t want to fight him. \"He (X) can do what he pleases.\"
Including to the X-doesn\'t-want-to-be-replaced thing this next fact strengthens the idea that the Maverick Hunters are starting to get tired of X\'s unwillingness to fight. They suggest (on the end of the game) that X should train Axl to be a Hunter since Axl has so much talent and skill but doesn\'t know how to use it. He is also helping the Maverick Hunters greatly by killing off so many Mavericks and solving problems. X refuses to train him, saying good deeds doesn\'t make you a Hunter. Of course, he\'s jealous either because he wants to be \"young again and have nothing to hold back\" or because Axl \"stole the spotlight\".
I sympathize for X yet I think it is selfish that he doesn\'t want Axl to be a Hunter. ...But if you think of it a different way, maybe X doesn\'t want Axl as a Hunter because, other than the obvious \"I hate him\" idea, he does not want Axl to fight throughout his whole life and regret what he had done on the later years of his life. Still, I think X should let him decide what he wants to do. If Axl wants to be a Hunter, let him. Teach him that there are certain times to fight and certain times to talk.

I think I covered it. So, who do you agree with: X\'s philosophy or everyone else\'s (Zero and the Maverick Hunters)?
I like X very much but he is getting too tied into it, forgetting that the virus makes reploids lose their minds (most of the time). I agree that they should try to talk and save the ones not too far gone but kill everyone who can\'t be saved (which I\'m not sure if they can or can not be). On the most part, I agree with Zero.
Please correct me if I\'m wrong on anything. Maybe I\'m looking too much into it. ;^^
Say anything about real world events and your post is going to be \"retired\" (deleted).
