The extra capabilities of the PlayStation means the X games from that era have far more detailed environments and characters that can reduce clarity in level design - it’s sometimes unclear what is on the play space and what is set dressing. The later games in the series though, started making changes that were controversial at the time and still feel questionable.
They experimented with the Mega Man formula, adding optional armour upgrades hidden in levels and leaning in to the rock ‘n roll aesthetic while leaning into the burgeoning popularity of anime in the west at the time to inform it’s character design. The first three especially were considered impressive for their time and classics in retrospect. And things were great for a while with the series.
