Ummm... Okay, this theory seems possible to me... but I haven't played much of Zero, X, or the original series, so... Anyyyywaaays, Megaman Zero leads up to a huge war between humans and reploids. Basically, the reploids totally annhilate the humans, except for a few, who took the side of the reploids. And for awhile, they live in peace, until they realize that the humans are slowly but surely dying out. By that time, there's only one left. They make a perfect world for him, where he can never get old, sick, or hurt, and they name it Elysium. Of course, there are still the reploids that go bad, and some of them are assigned to destroy corrupt units, essentially creating purifier units. They start a project to bring back the human race, and use the "Master"'s DNA to create the Carbons, and give them the Earth/Terra. Since it's been a long time since anyone's lived on Terra, the primitive robots sort of have taken over all the old, abandoned and ruined buildings. So there are now Reaverbots. But that's okay, because during time all the buildings have been destroyed except for the parts underground. So they seal off the entrances to all of the buildings to keep the Carbons out of them, and then they build houses and cities and everything for the Carbons and they set them loose on Terra. Hundreds, maybe thousands of years pass, and the Master begins to grow tired of his perfect world. Since the Carbon Reinitilization system is obviously dangerous (although I think it was originally made in case the Carbons died out suddenly) he tells Megaman Trigger (some sort of reincarnation of Megaman X) to destroy it, and then the whole fight with Sera happens and so Megaman Legends happens. There's my theory.

That sounds correct and all, but the problem is that the carbons had to been reinitialized more than once over a time period that big. I haven't played a X or zero game since the SNES. I think that Trigger though has nothing to do with the other Mega"men". Really though everything you said is entirely possible.

It's possible but a lot of us don't like the idea of it.
I, for one, like Legends better as earth 3764 AD where the ice caps melted, and refroze partially so the world's atmosphere is crazy-like and there are ruins from the time the humans had to dig down in ancient cities, then got to return to the surface and plow in to space or something.
All the same Capcom make the decisions, and Capcom Japan I might add. Lets hope they don't screw it up, but it's their game, I just want a MML3.

And for awhile, they live in peace, until they realize that the humans are slowly but surely dying out. By that time, there's only one left. The Master had a bunch of people with him at Elysium for a while, that's why there's the Library. It contains the DNA data of the True Humans. They start a project to bring back the human race, and use the "Master"'s DNA to create the Carbons, and give them the Earth/Terra. Since it's been a long time since anyone's lived on Terra, the primitive robots sort of have taken over all the old, abandoned and ruined buildings. So there are now Reaverbots. But that's okay, because during time all the buildings have been destroyed except for the parts underground. So they seal off the entrances to all of the buildings to keep the Carbons out of them, and then they build houses and cities and everything for the Carbons and they set them loose on Terra. That's ok and everything, but you forgot one thing. Who are the Elders? Yuna mentions in the final cut-scene, "The Elders and their machines are starting to reactivate." Which leads me to believe that there are some Units in the Elder System like the Master System has (Purifier, Mother, Servitor, Beurocratic, etc.). And just who "within" the Elder System did The Master's people shut down? Hundreds, maybe thousands of years pass, and the Master begins to grow tired of his perfect world. Since the Carbon Reinitilization system is obviously dangerous (although I think it was originally made in case the Carbons died out suddenly) he tells Megaman Trigger (some sort of reincarnation of Megaman X) to destroy it, and then the whole fight with Sera happens and so Megaman Legends happens. More than 3,000 years, because that's how long The Master lived. Also, I am lead to believe that Trigger was created by the Ancients, and not a reincarnation of X. To quote Yuna: "You are a Purifier Unit, built to seek out and eliminate Aberrant Units - units that malfunctioned and threaten the System." And yes, I've been playing Legends 2 lately. I've been taking notes! ;D

What difficulty were you playing, I like playing Very hard because its actually how I wish the difficulty was in normal. I just wonder, if its called the master system, was it created by master or someone else. I believe he says to Megaman"You must stop what I have created" That is probably not word for word though. just because I thought I saw somewhere that someone didn't believe Master created the master system.

I believe that Yuna calls it the Master System in a cut-scene. Probably during the Geetz battle.

But who originally created it, or were all the elders called master.

The only thing we know about the Elders is their name.
Also, the Elder System and the Master System are two different things. The Elder System consists of most ruins, and the Master System consists of Elysium and probably the ruins with the keys.

Sorry, when I said elders, I meant master and his people, the game gets so confusing toward the end, no wonder I completely didn't get the ending when I was 10. AaronD, I completely agree with whatever you mean... no matter how stupid the idea is.

Well, I think because The Master was the last human alive, his name changed to The Master. I'm sure that everyone in the Master System had a name at one point or another, including The Master.
Personally, I think that The Master is Zero, but I have no real basis other than two things. The hair and the fact that he's a good friend of MegaMan.

NO WAY. that would be so stupid, I would hate capcom forever if that was true. I personally think that this series has nothing to so with the other series, I think capcom (or the creator of megaman) wanted a fresh start with the Megaman franchise, and legends is the outcome.

Actually, according to the Rockman Perfect Works (release by Capcom), the Legends series takes place several thousand years after the X/Zero series. They link by the same world, but they have a big time gap in between.

I sort of knew that, I think a couple thousand years would be enough to kill X and Zero. as you probably know I hate Megaman X games, I don't really know why, I like the original 6 and the legends series. Here is a theory, why do you think capcom gave up on legends... because their stupid... or it didn't sell as well as their other games, or because I liked the game. the last one is the reason I think they gave up on legends.

Well that's a subject of much debate, but now knowing that you liked them everything is put into context. Darn you Justin! Just kidding. BTW when you say because 'their' stupid, you mean Capcom Japan, not the actual games right? OVo
