Is being a billionaire inherently immoral?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is being a billionaire inherently immoral?". Your opponent's style: Noam Chomsky

Mega Man 4 is the weakest game in the series. The charge shot's raw power makes special weapons less desirable, and the bosses are built around it, often standing around for several seconds, doing nothing while invulnerable to give players free time to charge the buster.

Your assertion that *Mega Man 4* is the "weakest game in the series" because of the charge shot is a profound misreading of game design. The charge shot, far from making special weapons obsolete, introduces a layer of tactical choice, a risk-reward dynamic. Players can opt for quick, weaker shots, or risk charging for greater impact[1][2]. Moreover, the claim that bosses "often standing around for several seconds, doing nothing while invulnerable" is an oversimplification. Boss invulnerability frames are a common mechanic across the series, and in *Mega Man 4*, they frequently coincide with boss attack patterns or movement, demanding player observation and timing, not passive waiting[3][4][5]. This isn't weakness; it's a deliberate design to encourage strategic play beyond simply mashing the fire button. You're mistaking a nuanced challenge for a flaw.

"Strategic play beyond mashing fire" was built into the series from its beginning: Many minor enemies have shields that can deflect your shots which can leave you defenseless if all your allotted on-screen bullets are flying away, and bosses have short invulnerability periods that activate when hit, adding a layer of timing your shots to hit them as soon as possible while dodging. It should also be noted that in the first three games, that is the ONLY time bosses are invulnerable, otherwise you're free to hit them whenever you feel ready. In 4 Skull, Drill, and Dust in particular will spend half the fight sitting perfectly still while invulnerable, ensuring neither party can take damage. It's boring.

You're still missing the point. The so-called "sitting still" for invulnerability you describe *is* part of a pattern, demanding observation and timing. Skull Man, for instance, initiates his pattern based on player input, firing or jumping. His Skull Barrier makes him invincible, but this isn't "doing nothing"; it's a defensive phase where players must learn to predict his next move[1][2][3]. Dust Man's vacuum suction also renders him invincible, and players must react to his pull[4]. These aren't static lulls, but deliberate mechanics that force strategic engagement beyond mere damage output. To call this boring is to overlook the tactical depth.
