Perfect herd naming

God damnit, I have to share this with everyone now

A Jar of Spicy Angry Pickles nice.

Nah, pretty sure it’s called Hell.

@@DeadEye364 It's a joke because Angry Pickle is the nickname for Deviljho.

Like Deeprock Galactic drills?

Yes, rock and stone

Yeah, I really disagreed with his point critiquing the monster design. Them looking freakish and alien is telling of how actually complex unique and well-made they are. Not to mention, it's not even a breach of reality and seems to still be rather grounded

​@@mag333You didn't mention the fact that they look like that because the environment is so harsh that they evolved to escape the surface

Could be that, I saw a leech really, just real big and on a reptile

So weird for him to randomly start talking about peanut butter 🤔😜

It's exactly like him but people keep comparing him to lagi

And Uroktor

id say its using the same basic mesh and armature for the model.

I hope this doesn’t replace Almudron, I would rather just have that monster with that sick ass armor.

Uroktor did the same. It looks like a basic mechanic for burrowing leviathan.

🎯🎯🎯

Yeah, not every animal is visually pleasant and the same should apply to monsters, that way there's more diversity in their designs

Agreed!

same. This is such a breath of fresh air from all the monsters we've had since the start of the series. The closest we ever got to these designs were khezu and gigginox (maybe even gore and kushala), which weren't even nearly unique or alien enough for my taste. So seeing the new bear monster and the kushala-looking monster looking so alien and so deformed is perfect. They're grotesque, but are still very obviously animals.

@@obiguanche5512 exactly. I love the desert design for Doshaguma, the oasis design for Chatacabra, and now the dune design for Balahara. Can't wait to see the designs for other monsters in other biomes.

my own theory, is that Sony must've begged for capcom to release something for their State of Play since mostly the game trailers there are so boring, and this one is the part 2 of it, Capcom might've planned the whole trailer to be in Summer game fest, and the demo in the august.

​@@gigahertz7352 my thoughts as well, I think they were meant to be one trailer that got chopped up for state of play

But i like my steaks rare/medium rare ;;

@@gigahertz7352 agreed. I think overall this and the last trailer if sony hadn't asked for it would have been combined into one main trailer which would have been are "trailer 1" versus the teaser at GA in Dec

So Tasty!

Same!!! I have one Friend on pc, that I wanna play with. And there’s another friend on pc that might play now because of crossplay. It’s gonna be nice.

Absolutely! My best friend and I have different consoles but we could never do Monster Hunter together. So im excited!

Hope you all have PSN Accounts!

Real

Man so many friends are on pc after world gonna be fun to join a lot more hunts.

Exactly this

I yeah Khezu...I'm gonna go vomit somwhere.

You say that... but in a recent video Gaijin Hunter claimed that Khezu was cute.

Khezu on Wilds would be 👌

@@Zulban48 chibi Khezu is pretty adorable tbh, kinda like Dodogama. But actual Khezu can die in a fire

Finally a good take. I don't get this "Its the second trailer, why don't you show us in depth guides on every weapon!?" I'd rather just see the spectacle, with monster reveals maybe further down the line map reveals. I mean they prefaced this whole trailer with a Demo in a few months with a new trailer, why did they think this one would be the gameplay focused one and not that one?

@@lordfoogthe2st789you're asking why people watching a video game trailer are expecting GAMEPLAY?

@@Rusty_Spy No, I'm asking why they think this trailer would be the gameplay focused one and not the one that comes with a demo. Seems like a no brainer for me. From what I've heard its like how World trailers worked.

​@@Rusty_Spy but we did see a gameplay, in both trailer? This trailer are just focusing on explaining the story and location Later on we are getting gameplay trailer focusing on Monsters, weapins and mechanics. This always been a thing... People just expect a trailer revealing everything when the game release in half a year...

Bro on the first trailer I immediately knew it was a MH game from that Greatsword

Bruh they made us wait six months for new info. I'm starving here and they're only bringing out appetizers

@@Rusty_Spy true but six months is nothing compared to the four year wait of the old games to be released in the west without any info at all.

facts

A bit of an oxymoron. Nature is definitionally non-alien. If there is a precedent for it occuring on Earth, how can it be alien. /pendantics

@@BarderBetterFasterStrongerIf it looks weird then it’s alien like

@@BarderBetterFasterStrongerVery little in science fiction is stranger than what is in the Earth’s abyss, which is so far removed from the world we experience I’d consider it “alien” Edit: also “alien” is a word it doesn’t mean little gray aliens, it can be used to describe something “other” and unusual for its setting, which is what people mean in this case.

​@@BarderBetterFasterStronger alien doesn't mean "extraterrestrial" or a living being from space. Alien can be categorized same as "monster" Like how people call "monster" a shark when they see it jumping out of the water to hunt a sea lion. I call alien like to almost all insects/worms species... they look so out of this world sometimes

That's perfectly acceptable, as long as it's not an entire freaking village questline like in old games/Rise

Now that crossplay is confirmed im extremely happy i wont lose my hunting friends even if i swap platforms 😊

or perhaps as hunters we go around getting rid of monsters and establishing cities or camps.

100% agree. Don’t show us half the roster before the game drops

i don’t think that’s a problem at all. i think that’s a nostalgia player talking. world was about the monsters after you hit endgame if anything, then they just kept adding. even if they showed “half” the roster, it was hundreds of hours of content still. that’s BEFORE the first major title update.

They're monsters that are equally adapted to those environments and still have tons of personality and way better designs

Vaal Hazack

Knowing Capcom, they can definitely pull it off.

also i am hopeful about the focus system, that maybe it'll validate more styles of play. maybe by different stripes they mean itll have a bit different of a feel like action-y and be something you can weave in and out of your playstyle depending on your taste.

gamescom will have it, Geoff charges an arm and a leg to show a trailer

The game releases in 2025 so there is more than enough time. And why can‘t he suggest that from the higher ups who make the deadlines?

you are right, these ppl are often so dum* and dont know anything about the industry lol, capcom is a triple A studio and they've finished the game and footages long ago, only doing QA and bugfixing right now, big games like these take years to be developed, so they are alrdy working the 2nd part of the game to be released 1 year later after base game I am working in the industry btw

@@Keiken0because that is just objectively not how corporate contracts work. Maybe they have the time slot and they’re cooking something fierce but then there is a set back with one of the models and how it’s interacting with the sand that puts them a week behind schedule. Boom, a logical and understandable reason to not be ready for a deadline that even the “higher ups” can’t back them out of because low and behold you can’t just say “whoops see aren’t ready for the deadline will catch you at the next one though!” Gaijin knows this, he’s worked in a corporate setting for a while iirc. Nobody ever tries to understand they just say “my opinion is valid!” when they genuinely aren’t lol

⁠@@VNRG1993with a 2025 release window (keep in mind, we don’t actually have a full date, just a year window), I think they’re probably in the finishing stages of development, not quite in QA. It definitely feels like someone asked them to make promotional materials for both events, and they didn’t quite have enough time or whatever to work on them. It’s a thing of you just don’t know their situation, and if you are actually in the industry, you understand how turbulent development can be. Acting like you know exactly what is going on with the mainline teams status without (i assume) actually being there and then calling other people dumb for things that are pretty reasonable (not releasing what feels like an unfinished PV that more feels like it supplements the first trailer rather than standing on its own) seems pretty dumb to me personally.

@@tagon2381 why I called them dum* cuz capcom did similar trailer sequences like last time for MH world, showing only tiny bits and then at the end to release an epic trailer + dev discussion video in a specific event (this time at gamescom), and now some people comes up with the idea, that the game might be not finished yet...which they are partially true, cuz again, they are definitely in QA and bugfixing phase, because the demo comes in august at gamescom and then I bet soon a public version like MHWorld also we can assume that Wilds will be released in Q1 of 2025 like the other games (world in january and rise in march) since they announced the title around 1 year before it releases very often and again, I know exactly how turbulent the development is, which is why triple AAA games take years to be finished, and the last big release was on 6th September 2019 with Iceborne, afterwards a bunch of DLC came so the main team slowly migrates to develop Wilds, so we could assume the development started in 2020 with the full team, so they have 5 years to develop the Base Game & DLCs + Expansion Set & almost all DLCs + 1 year to finish the rest of the DLCs but again the main team would migrate to the next project alrdy while the sub team would handle the DLCs so to assume again that the base game is not finished yet, so they didn't have enough material to make a good trailer, would be just ludicrous. while they are alrdy developing the last part of the expansion set your argument would be only valid, if somehow they asked capcom like 1-2 weeks before the event and demanded another short trailer, even if the main trailer was alrdy planned for gamescom, then we would have this tiny piece

I think they'll release the game in January since there will be a gameplay demo at Gamescom which is in only in 2 months and January is 4 months after that. Also Monster Hunter World came out in January. I might just be high on Hopium though

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I want to see gog return

Did you watch the game fest announcement for MH Wilds. They confirmed a 3rd trailer and gameplay demo for another event in August. So, if you think about it, it would make more sense to showcase the gameplay and mechanics then.

I agree with this 100%. I actually like that they didn't show much, would have loved to see Charge Blade but we will do that in time. A friend and I was super hyped when watching this trailer and made us wanna play so much, even if they didn't show that much. I am definitely not feeling disappointed or anything like that. I can't wait to play this!

@@DrowsyPotato I can't wait to see what's new for all the weapons! So much potential in focus mode and whatever else they are hiding

Im sure we will be able too for a bit of $$$ 😅

Why were u under that impression? They literally said this trailer would be for revealing a new monster didn’t say anything else

Oh god pokemon has taken such a hit to its designs in the name of plushies and easy to mold figures

What about the current three monsters designs they have revealed feels particularly "all-in" to you? I feel that Doshaguma and Balahara are very bland designs without the charm that monster hunter designs usually have. Gaijin explained his thoughts better in the podcast he does, where it's not that he wants them to be cutesy in game, but that they lack any meaningful signature features. Doshaguma will be hard to recognize as a plush essentially.

@williammcgregor7150 I actually think these monsters are pretty cool looking. Yes, they're bizzare and not too flashy, but they're unique and that "uglyness" or "blandness"makes this new region feel especially foreign, even more then the new world. The designs also work well on making the ecology feel more realistic, varied and immersive. We all love cool dragons and dinosaurs, yes but not every creature has to be carefully crafted with toys in mind.

This idea that FU is "dreary and muted" is such a wild take to me. It was trying to emulate the natural world and had PLENTY of beautiful and vibrant locations, and Pokke Village still remains as one of the most charming and cozy places in the franchiise. It balances the beauty of nature with the dangers it hides. It may not be as out there as Rise but sometimes it feels like people are describing Bloodborne and not FU "Mainline realistic and gritty, portable cartoony and colorful" is such an unfair surface level observation of these games that isnt accurate in so many ways

​​@@tofuteh2348 Wasn't FU done by the portable team? Also, what I do like in FU is that the general presentation in colors, area and monster design is much more muted than in future titles, which in turn makes the fun stuff stand out so much more. Stuff like cats cooking for you, the joke weapons or Trenya's boat animations felt even more special to me as a contrast to the otherwise less overtly goofy and colorful stuff. By comparison, Rise's joke weapons aren't as much of a break in style. That doesn't make them worse, it's just something kinda unique to FU that some people appreciate.

This was my impression as well. Seems like the more realistic, gritty team and the quirky, colorful team each have their group of fans. Gaijin hunter lives in Japan and plays with his daughter, no surprise they’d prefer the cutesy wootsy aesthetic.

@@dertropenstein4897 point being that theres this recent idea that MH as a franchise has two types of games- the mainline more 'realistic' one and the cartoony portable one, which doesnt really make sense if you look at the entire franchise. Its only really applicable to Generations onward. I disagree that all you said about FU is unique to FU. Of course its unique in the sense that it has its own identity, but MH1, MH2, MHFreedom, MH3, MHP3RD, MH4 have all tried to immerse the player to feel like a hunter in a natural environment, even with limited technology. If you ask me its only until Generations and Rise that these elements take more of a backseat.

​@tofuteh2348 dreary and muted doesn't equal gritty and realistic. Something "gritty" like a western shooter wouldn't be "dreary or muted". It's about color pallets and the more calm atmosphere. Portable third is a colorful and enthusiastic place compared to Pokke's quiet fireside ambience.

It would be great if they’re also releasing slowly to take fan comments into consideration. I don’t think they could do that immediately if the game comes out in a year, but maybe like they did for Iceborne we’ll get some concerns addressed. So far I like what I see a lot. It looks new and unique but still classic

Riders knew how to hunt too.

I hope so!

That's what I got from it too when I first read it. Ruri and Gaijin had me second guessing what I actually read 😂

The Japanese post is what i read and it does not link the evasion to a hunter at all it just says you can show your weapon to deter monsters and the seikret also can auto-evade monster attacks (not be TOLD to)

Even if its an auto evade, it will probably be limited in effect like the temporal mantle in world.

@@gaijinhunter see this is the great thing about articles coming out in Japanese and English we can cross compare for info that might be missing from either description. fully agree with you on wanting more, it did seem like they could have shown us abit more content. Hopefully though like Ruri has said they don't show all the content before the release otherwise ill be going dark probally after GamesCom.

It’s heavy. First trailer and this is just telling us in the face that we can have Rapid fire HBGs now which is the new change. By this extension, the possibility of Spread 3 Rapid Fire, Pierce 3 Rapid fire, and Sticky 3 Rapid fire and most IMPORTANTLY, WYVERN AMMO RAPID FIRE(maybe cluster bomb rapid fire as well but they won’t do it).

@@theenvoy6601 honestly, rapid ffire heavy bowgun isnt new... i remenber doing something similar in 4u... it looks like a burst mostly.

@@miguelcabreracastro6968 4U had wyvern ammo/cluster bomb rapid fire?

It’s not rapid fire - it’s a 3 round burst, which some HBG’s do have for some ammo types.

@@tagon2381okay. See I only used light, in world and rise. I don’t know anything about heavy in worldborne. I need to see this stuff in what I’m guessing I guess in august when the demo becomes available. I’m really hoping, the one thing they don’t do is reveal every monster in the game. Please please do not do that. Let me be shocked or surprised like with Bazel in Sunbreak.

They're pretty ugly tho

I’m a mh veteran since freedom unite and tri and this game is beyond hype it is astronomical. All platforms simultaneously release and cross play will make this game the best selling in the series within a few days. Gaijin is super biased towards cute monsters too for some reason, it’s a *Monster* not your grandmas cat or dog that you aww at not everything needs to have a plushie and be sold to little kids this is a grown up game.

@@meitomiyazaki9848 All monsters are made into plushies in Japan. Look it up. Even ugly monsters like Khezu, Vaal Hazaak, and Ibushi/Narwa have plushies.

@@meitomiyazaki9848 As someone who's played since MH1 the games hype isn't astronomical and there's many concerns.

@meitomiyazaki9848 I enjoy listening to Gaijin and Rurikhan's banter and opinions on the third fleet podcast and I think it's good to have different opinions. Yes, he does want everything to be cute (we were kind of spoiled with mostly cute monsters in Rise and Sunbreak), but everyone has their reasons for hype. For me, it is the discovery of new and old monsters I have yet to see (currently playing through World/Iceborne and Generations Ultimate). I am also glad for cross play as I have tried to get many friends excited to play and I want us all together on day one.

⁠@@nuke2099as a veteran from MH1 as well, it is astronomically hype and while some concerns are valid, however some of it isn’t.

I doubt that wyvern is the flagship. It seems way too tied to the ecology of the Windswept Plains. It's probably the apex of the locale, all things considered

It’s not just a spiritual successor to world, world was MH5 and this is MH6. It’s the direct sequel to world

@@waderich9904 It’s spiritual in that it seems to be taking the “living, breathing world” direction and a lot of the core themes and mechanics introduced in World and expanding upon them with ideas of its own in a new setting with new characters and a new narrative. This might be a “direct” sequel as far as Monster Hunter goes, but to call it a “direct sequel” I personally think comes with untrue (or at least yet unverified) assumptions about what exactly that entails regarding characters and narrative. I wouldn’t necessarily call Tri a direct sequel to Dos, for example.

@@weshverified yeah that makes sense, but with the whole system of how monster hunter games work in generations like world Iceborne rise sunbreak was all the 5th generation, I’d say Wilds is now the true successor to World unlike rise or how Iceborne was an expansion

You saw how it went from a cut scene to gameplay twice. Once in both trailers.

I agree, the majority of players dosn't play MH because of the Story, most people play it because of Gameplay. Im kinda worried that Capcom does to MH what Sony did to God of War and make the main focus of the game the story and not the gameplay.
