same. This is such a breath of fresh air from all the monsters we've had since the start of the series.

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.

They are focusing on the new stuff with these trailers. They even tried to throw people off with the first teaser by making us think this was not Monster Hunter until the title appeared. They did the exact same thing with World, people were confused not knowing what they were watching until Rathalos appeared and the MHW title dropped, there wasnt a weapon showcase either, Great Sword only. I know we all want to see full Monster Hunter action but we have to wait, let them tease and show all the new stuff before we see how everything works toghether. They are finally putting the RE Engine to work in this franchise at its fullest and thats what they want us to see first. Dont judge the game when its still more than half a year away from release. Im enjoying watching all these trailers and info like a small child. On the topic of monster designs: Its all fine, not every monster has to be a lizard-like with scales everywhere or tough-skinned doggos or monkeys. The real world also has incredibly strange and alien-looking wild life hidden everywhere, even the most famous sci-fi creatures are based off real animals. And if something like Gaismagorm exists in the world of MH, why not smaller look-a-likes? Shara Ishvalda or Valstrax are way more "off-topic" designs for me tbh and i love both of them so much. Let us enjoy what we have and let them surprise us until release. If the game is bad when it releases, we'll make the devs know somehow.

I disagree on the monster designs, and I think they are really fitting. all of these new monsters are hyper adapted to the climate they live in, and all have differing defense mechanisms to deal with the sandstorms that roll through this first area of the game. balahara is designed to keep itself in the sand, and draws a lot from clams. it has the mobility and flexibility to seek out prey even if it flees to the larger rocky sections in the area doshaguma is a big blind rodent. it's got limited sight, but has methods of compensating for that, likely through being sensitive to scents or vibrations. it's fur acts as camouflage too chatacabra unlike the others, chatacabra wants to stay away from the sandstorms, and likely uses camouflage to do so. it coats itself in it's adhesive saliva to coat itself in rocks and stay out of sight while we don't know much about the new wyvern, it seems to be adapted specifically around the lighting that happens in the storm. the lightning it shoots out is near indistinguishable from the lightning we see in other parts of this and the teaser trailer. the new wyvern probably could also absorb that lighting just like the lighting rods in the environment. these things are weird because they have solely adapted to the desert. these aren't something like a rathalos you could find any where

"it doesn't feel like they're showing us enough" keep in mind during monster Hunter rise and I think even sunbreak, they showed every monster that appears in the game in the trailers, outside of the final boss we got to see every monster before the game even came out. and in Sun break I think there's probably like two monsters we didn't even see up here in the game. so they're probably taking that criticism quite literally in this campaign.

I agree on a lot of points from this and your previous video. Hopefully the next trailer or content they show us is focused more on the gameplay mechanics and combat, since monster hunter is after all first and foremost about the hunts! I would love to see at least some teases of other locales and a variety of ecology, the savanna and sands is nice and all but i need a little more flavor to get really excited about the environments. As a great sword user i am feasting but i would love for other weapons to get some screentime too. I suppose at the end of the day I personally wish they'd reel me in with the hunts and combat and let the story just be more of a pleasant surprise instead of the other way around. Still hyped though!

Nice deep dive though, your voice is calming and I like listening to your thoughts about the trailer.

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.

I don't understand why you're expecting more? This is the second trailer in two weeks at least a year before it comes out. Yet we already have four whole monsters, some solid looking gameplay, and confirmation of a really important system (crossplay).

I think there's a lot of overreacting going on around these trailers. They're drip marketing. There's still at least another 6 months before the game comes out, and they said they will be showing off stuff all summer (and obviously after). Instead of being underwhelmed, you should realize that they're showing the tip of the iceberg. It's not about how little we're seeing, it's about how much left there is to see. I also think the criticism around the monsters is strange. The Doshaguma look plenty like large monsters, much moreso than bird wyverns at least. And they look very similar to goss harag. There's also been plenty of alien monsters, including your favorite khezu, so it's not like there's a very weird thing going on with the worms. I think this weird pessimism needs to be toned down. Obviously I can't wait to see how the actual game plays, which is why I am excited to see more, not disappointed to see more.

I don’t think you’re being a moron but I do think you overhyped yourself though. We are still at minimum 6 months out from the release. They also said that they are dropping more information in August along with a demo (if I heard that right). The majority (or the very vocal minority)of the community has also been very vocal about wanting trailers to function more like teasers and to not reveal as much as they did for World/Iceborne and Rise/Sunbreak, which I believe is something you and Ruri disagreed on when you were on the podcast. Iirc it was a pretty loud vocalization from the community as well with some of the community team being attacked online over it…both times. These teasers/trailers fall in line quite well with what that portion of the community was asking for. Enough to drum up some hype for the reveal of the demo but nothing that actually spoils a big portion of the beginning of the game or even how the weapons are actually going to function.

"Its not cute enough" "it won't look good as a plushie" are such a weird ass takes, but i guess if that's truly what u care about. Id rather the devs go all in with their designs instead of making them more "marketable" That mentality is what kills designs and stops them looking cool, like in the pokemon franchise for example.

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.

Comparing your's and Jakob's reactions have been super interesting to me as it shows the differing perspectives from an FU vet (likes dreary and muted atmospheres) and a Portable 3rd vet (considers quirky and colorful as the soul of the series).
@tofuteh23482 ай бұрын
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
@dertropenstein48972 ай бұрын
@@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.

@@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.

I don't know where you're getting the "auto-evade" thing from. The playstation-blog says "Hunters can brandish their weapons while mounted atop their Seikret to deter an approaching pack of predators, or the Seikret can be directed to avoid monsters automatically." Avoid, not evade. That, together with the information for the Seikret that "Its well-developed sense of smell allows it to guide you automatically to your current objective, or any location you select on the map." makes me think that it will just try to avoid potential threats on the map, instead of running directly into a monster. But not that it has an auto-dodge.

I totally get wanting more substantial showings of the combat and weapon changes and stuff (I want that more than anything too), but we're the core gamers who care most about mechanics. These first few trailers are revealing the game in big showcases. It's probably the right call to focus on the environment and its inhabitants, as well as the effort they've put into making the story and characters feel more alive and invested. The cinematic nature of these sequences feel waaaaay less awkward than anything in World, and they present well to wider audiences. It sounds like Gamescom is where we'll get BIG updates on combat and weapons, considering there's a demo there.

My expectations are just hype for everything we have seen so far because this is a new experience. For veterans, I can understand if they feel a little underwhelmed, but at the same time I have heard the complaints of Capcom giving too much info as well. For now, I think it is nice to just see what we have seen and speculate on what is to come. Perhaps we aren't seeing a village because the village might just be something that we have to unlock parts of by doing hunting/gathering and, in a sense, build from the ground up. Can't wait for August and more info!

They’re trying to sell us and new players with no experience with the series this immersive new world. I think we’re too early in the release cycle to expect things like in-depth gameplay previews that really only mean a lot to veteran players.
