I dunno if is for aesthetic effects or not but is a bit deceiving. While Beck can actually change his weapons to the same one he uses in his own game, is not actually the weakness. One thing that is of interest is Gunvolt can use boss's weakness, is acquired the same way as you would in Mighty No.9 Mega Man games.
Gunvolt really didn't get different weapons, it was more like the same weapon but had different ways to fire his tags. Got to adjust them for a crossover and make them a challenge to use, it would make them a struggle. Beck using Xeleration dash makes for lots of mobility and obtaining small stat boost. was pretty unneeded for the game to complete. Well I understand, got to adjust and balance the game somehow right? Gunvolt is a bit overpowered right out the box, pervasion allows him to avoid taking damage, flashfield allows him to target enemies without needing to aim, wall jump. So basically the very things that made the characters fun in their own game are gone in this one. Good! Good, having moments where you can enjoy a laugh is not a bad thing. Kinda like a online game? This sets up a idea that the game is self aware, and script writers for localization was indeed trying to poke fun at pop culture references, there is plenty of that there. I mean actually a game, you are in a game, remember this is VR, the cyber world. (Is not spoiler, is plainly obvious is not actual hero.) I assume GM is short for general manager, kinda like the person you speak with when you have problems with your games, you know? Basically saying this game is a game. Dr.White created a VR training program for Beck to hone his skills in, (Much like Metal Gear Solid VR) Someone deep behind all this referred to as GM manipulates the VR program and traps both Beck and Gunvolt During the game you are challenged by the opposing character's doppleganger addressed as GM to defeat all 8 bosses, is your only way of returning home. Beck's story is after Mighty No.9 and Gunvolt's story is after Azure Striker Gunvolt 2. Well to sum up the plot, each character's story takes place after their respective games. With their powers drained, Gunvolt and Beck, armed with nothing but their base abilities, have no choice but to fight their way through this virtual world, if they are to have any hope of returning home."
Declaring Gunvolt a participant in the "Super Mighty Battle Showdown", Beck warns the Adept that he must face his robo-siblings, before finally facing the reigning champion, none other than Beck of course!
