Bummed there's no preload and probably no midnight eshop release but usually it updates at like 8AM est so I'm gonna get some good sleep and have a monster hunter morning

it's good but the first two big monsters you fight are rude choices for the game devs to throw at you

Cephadrome isn't so tight but Great Maccao wasn't too bad in the demo IMO

The real terror is gonna be Malfestio, nothing liking having your controls reversed and then your catte running up and ganking you as soon as you rewire your brain for reverse controls. Oh yeah and you had a Hammer charge going too, thanks catte

every weapon now has 4 subtypes and there's a list of special moves you can equip and you get more or less moves depending on which subtype you're using

otherwise yeah it's just a new monster hunter

So it's MH4U but now you have to learn the game for 100h instead of 50h to enjoy it?

Don't you just have to be inclined to liking these kinds of things. Why do you have to spend time learning this.

it's the new monster hunter. I tried to get into the series last year with 4U but after about 30 hours I figured I don't think it's for me and gave up on it. sounds like this is a good one for people who like monster hunter though

Did you play multiplayer? I probably put in 30 hours, enjoying it but not going crazy for it, but once I coordinated some MP hunts with friends it really hit me. The way different skills and status effects interact is really fun and multiplayer allows for a lot of cool loadouts that wouldn't be as fun in single player, like all the hunting horn support skills. We should set up a discord room or something for this btw

It changes a few things (like you have 4 different Hunter Styles you can choose between in addition to picking a weapon which alters all your movesets, and you have equippable weapon art abilities that do cool poo poo) but the name refers to it being a "greatest hits" style thing with monsters and zones from across the series in addition to a new one. Also resource gathering and crafting got a LOT more streamlined

If you hate monster hunter it won't win you over but from what I understand if you could get into the combat but didn't like some of the gathering/inventory management aspects they have been modernized , at least compared to the other games in the series

Now I'm not sure and the Capcom rep says he doesn't know either . Guess we'll know in 2 hours but usually when EU gets a midnight eshop release we do too at EST
