[very untimely and unprofessional, but here we go.]
Hey everyone — I’m Brendan87. Some of you might already know me, but most probably don’t, and that’s totally fine! I won’t go into full detail about who I am, but rather why I’m here today.
On July 10th, 2020, the MegaMan 8-Bit Deathmatch Community Showcase was released. That video served as a gateway for many new players to discover the game and join the community — some of whom remain active to this day. I, too, first encountered the game through that showcase, and I’ve been a part of the community ever since.
To mark the fifth anniversary of that moment, I will be creating a special video highlighting every mod released since then. I understand this may raise some eyebrows, particularly because the video will also include class mods and CBM forks. I recognize that these types of mods aren’t to everyone’s taste, and many prefer more traditional, "vanilla" content — and that’s entirely valid. However, I kindly ask that we set aside those preferences, just for a moment.
Whilst there are differing opinions and/or tensions that may exist among developers and players alike, the fact remains that each of us is contributing to the growth of this community in our own way. The modding scene today may not resemble what it was during its peak years of 2014–2016, but times change, and so does the audience. Some of you have grown up alongside this game, having been part of the community since 2010. Others have joined in the past seven years and gravitate toward newer trends. Butto come together and celebrate the game that has brought us all together for so long — and the projects, both past and yet to come, that continue to grow from it.
And now, for the slightly inconvenient part: The recording schedule.

Eh, vanilla content is the least played content, I don't think people would mind.
First time I'm hearing about Instagib Redefined, not sure what that is- but what about obstacle course-type mods, those are played more than a bunch of the listed ones.

That video is what really got me into the "community" too (especially I mostly just played offline), and it was oh so magical. That said, really excited to see the special video!

Rad. Wish to see Unholy and Ragestacle since those are my favorites, but it's alright. I look forward to being there and playing as many of these as I can!

while those are not listed, it'd be rude to not show small snippets of them, the ones that i listed will have dedicated segments that (hopefully) range from 1-2 minutes
