Monsters Missing: Amatsu, Espinas, Lunastra, Variants, Subspecies, & Rare species. Reasons: Amatsu- Couldn't get a working version of Amatsu's old model at a convenient time. Espinas- Old model is in the Frontier Gulag Lunastraa- Old model is a little too old to get. (Her only appearance other than World was 2nd Gen) Variants/Subspecies/Rare species- This video was already much longer than I thought it would be, and it got incredibly repetitive with 6 Raths in a row that have very little difference in terms of the modeling.

The reason a lot of the newer models look so "dull" in their colors is because modern games these days use real time lighting to shadow and illuminate their models. Older games didn't have this luxury so their textures had to have pre- baked shadows and illumination to achieve the illusion.

Another interesting design difference (possibly due to technical limitations): All the older models have significantly harder and sharper edges, while the newer models generally make the monsters look smoother. Especially noticeable on the Wroggi and Rajang imo. Also the older generation of monsters were generally more slender and less chunky (Narga, Brachy, Deviljho and Zinogre spring to mind). Sometimes probably due to them now having significantly more fur. But I would wager probably also due to them being more limited in how much texture detail they can display, and thus having to limit how much surface area a monster has.

@dragonlord4194 3 ай бұрын

It is more so the second one. They've used almost all of the older Models up to XX, only small changes here and there like with the Raths getting a slight remodel in Tri. But overall they went with the more scrawny designs for a long time. Tigrex got the biggest buff up in Iceborne, as he doesn't look like he is almost starving.

@@Eisbacktemperatur I'm certain it's mostly dependent on the environment that Basarios is in to try to blend in to make sure it's not an easy target for certain carnivores that may want to hunt it, plus I believe it's also used to ambushing Herbivores and Neopterons in order to gain protein because since it's not a fully grown like a Gravios so it needs other nutrient to help its growth.

Me and my friend like to go on rants and arguments and try to see which is better, brightly colored monsters? (older MH titles) or realistically colored monsters? (MHW and MHR) We tend to argue for 20 minutes, and maybe even an hour. We would even pull up images of monsters and talk about how a brightly colored monster would stick out in its environment, while monsters with duller colors would realistically blend in with it, and so on and so forth.

@Zedrapazia 3 ай бұрын

Some animals are colorful for dominance and mating reasons. Ambush hunters, prey and anything like that are dull to hide. So I'd say it strongly depends. A Baggi or Wroggi has good reason to be saturated so he can hide from bigger wyvern that could attempt to eat him. This also includes Kirin, who could fall into predation by Rajang. A Nargacuga is an ambush hunter so he too has good reason to be saturated. On the other hand, an Uragaan, a Tigrex or a Theostra, who has no enemies in the food chain and doesn't ambush hunt either (Uragaan doesn't even eat meat) can be as colorful as he wants to be because there's no need to tone down the colors. They could even be used to ward off concurrence of the same species as a warning signal, or impress a potential mate by indicating good health.

@reddbreadd 3 ай бұрын

@@Zedrapazia Ooo, I like the idea of more colorful monsters being a signifier of monster health and condition, and I do agree with Uragaan tigrex and Teostra being as colorful as they want since they are the top monster predators. Most of our arguments come from the fact that my friend says they take away the life from monsters when their colors are dulled, but I would always say that it’s realistic and that a barroth isn’t going to glow with its orange and browns if it constantly rolls in mud and stays covered in mud for extended periods of time.

I bought the artbook for World so I could write a paper for college on how it handles symbolism related to life and death and they include a bunch of lore blurbs to explain why monsters in World look and behave so different from their "old world" counterparts It's super neat attention to detail that just solidifies why I adore this series (Example from the book, Rathalos' changed apperance, especially in the face, is to help with nest building since New World Rathalos will mate with multiple Rathians instead of just one like old world Rathalos and then pick a preferred female to focus most of their attention on with caretaker duties. It also explains why New World Rathians tend to be more airborn than old world ones since some of them have to do all the baby raising duties alone if they aren't favored which means more flying around to find food and putting nests in more hostile terrain to protect them from ground predators)

there is a reason I have my monitor saturation slightly raised, even with lighting some monster looks so washed out well I went with reshade later on cause its too saturated on other games i play so i dont have to adjust the monitor everytime but its nice to see how design changed and become more detailed

2:50 Did they add a triceratops style ball socket joint on the monoceros skull in the redesign? These little details are so fantastic.

Just for the sillies, I'd love to see the regular series' Monsters compared to the ones in Stories (1-2) someday. Maybe an April Fool's kind of video or something. 😂

Tigrex wing placement on the hand changed and now it looks more like a wing attachment as opposed to the old looking like an elongated toe

I feel like if the 6th gen redesigns of some of these monsters incorporates design elements from 5th gen old gen, they would be perfect. For example, a Tigrex with 5th gen’a bulk but old gen’a vibrant colors + lips would be a perfect design

wildest thing about the 5th gen monsters with wings is how most of them got at least 1 extra wing appendage and it's kinda wild. bros just be growing extra fingers

Reminds me of how many Pokémon lost their vibrant colors in the shift to 3D

1:50 ah yes i too love how the old tigrex's wings had the void on the back ends of them XD (yes i know what the issue is, i have that same issue too a lot of the time when messing with the models, just wanted to make a funni joke out of it lol)

I really like the updated monster designs. Still waiting for the return of Monoblos.

Tbh I don't know if I have a preference between the old and new models, if nothing else I just appreciate how cool and unique so many of the designs are overall.

Alpha clipped textures appear to be broken in some of the the older models (as in, tigrex doesn't have that black outline on the tips of its wings, that color is supposed to become transparency. Also see artifacts on zinogre and rajang's fur)
