Is Dr. Light dead in the X series?
Evidently not. Although the first few games seemed to be implying that Dr. Light had perished but left recordings of himself for X stored inside capsules, Mega Man X4 and beyond successfully shoot this idea out of the water. In later games Dr. Light’s holograms obviously know about events that they shouldn’t, had they been prerecorded…and Dr. Light even goes so far as to have entire conversations with X and Zero! Thus, it would seem that somehow, in some way, the holograms are able to keep up with current events.
