The increasing number of thirdie and foid gamers is the reason for the excessive casualization and dumbing down of...

Yes. japanese children and salarymen commuting on busses who want short fight sessions.

this is why gatekeeping is a good thing

3dsbabs dont know Monster Hunter was bigger in south america before it got big on the usa

Still remember playing a pirated version of p3rd half in moonrunes and the other half in spanish

The only people who could afford that type of gaming in Latin America back then were (white) sons of oligarchs, kek.

Impossible to gatekeep nowadays. The hordes are everywhere. And they are VILE.

Yes, such people also created the hoax of Zinogre in Patapon.

Hack a psp with a sd card

Expensive

Its just like 1 day in jail for stealing that

Have over 9k hours of playtime for the entire series

After only 18 hours of play I could not bring myself to even boot up Wilds

Friends still defend it because "It is Monster Hunter, man!"

It was fun while it lasted, thankfully I play other niche shit I can gatekeep, so yeah, if you play Wilds and enjoy it, have fun, you are exactly who they are pandering to, and you deserve this.

Been playing since the dualpack on psp

Played tri and P3rd

Went back for dos and 1

Played 3U and 4U

Played World Iceborne

Bpught Rise on launch

My biggest fucking regret
Rise before all the updates made me doubt if I would ever buy another monster hunter.

It'll take another title or two before it finally sets in for normalfags to realize the IP is dead but they never really cared for it, they simply jumped on the next new popular thing to experience fomo and consoom ad nauseum

It either heals and goes back to being a cool series, or it just becomes slop for the masses to enjoy.
Either way, I highly doubt I will even care by the time it is even playable again.

I have slight faith wilds will keep bringing back more of the side.content the series used to have instead of just mindlessly fighting shit

I have slight faith wilds will keep bringing back more of the side.content the series used to have

Most systems in the game currently work against the systems that were in place before, and even then, mot of the side shit you used to have (quests to unlock shit for the kitchen, or for your farm, etc) were always baked into the idea of having optional quests for you to do as you progressed through the game, and since now the game "ends" extremely quickly, there's really no space for those systems to even coexist with the rest of the game.
I just do not see a way for them to do that outside of a big expansion, and even then it is obvious they do not want to go into that direction with Wilds.

Gen 5 killed already most side content leaving aside that most of it wasn't popular in first place.

Is it just me or does it seem like they're gonna add mantles as p2w
This game looks flashy but the functionality is basically that of a mobile game
I had fun with it sure.. but I don't think kit has longevity without all the pre-existing shit they dumped
Also why paintballs? They don't do anything

List of shit we used to have and dont now

Negative skills

Indepth palico training / kitchen

Treasure hunting quests

Pvp monster battles

Variable length weapons

Medium bowguns and full customization

Some semblance of inventory management due to less pouches, breakable tools, and combo books, alchemy and failing combos

Ecology videos

Training schools

Farms with minigames and trenya

That one tsundere hunter in every game shittalking you then falling for you

Underwater explorarion plus combat

Cha-Cha and masks

A bunch more shit

For now we got back in wilds

Specialized fishing bait

Seasons

Doing quests and stuff for villagers for food and shit

Diva

Some endemic life

Some more shit i cant remember rn

Capcom removing unpopular shit

When are we getting rid of mounting then?
They spend a shitton of time reworking it every single game it has been in.

Bold of you to say this when 4th gen was the one that started the mass casualizati- uh, "Quality of Life changes and removal of tedium" as you call it

I just do not see a way for them to do that outside of a big expansion, and even then it is obvious they do not want to go into that direction with Wilds

This is b8 right it’s very obviously following the world schedule

Nah I misspoke.
They will have a DLC/Expansion like Iceborne for sure, what I meant is that I do not see them going back or adding the type of side content the series used to have, they obviously want it to be as streamlined as possible.

there really wasn't much until GU which added adept and valor modes which made the game extremely easy

is mounting still unpopular? The people outside of 4chinz I played MHR with all liked riding and the Wilds implementation of mounting seems to be OK.

You're not wrong but they still had egg collections and stuff with the maps having blocked paths. World egg collections were a joke cause of subcamps and in rise they didn't even make quests for them other than some side objectives leaving aside that you could zip around with wirebugs anyway.

Your complaints are retarded if is your list, it’s blatantly padded with stupid shit like Chacha that was functionally replaced

Turned farms into item duplication menus

Turned looking for rare mats into gacha relic weapons

Had 2 overtuned af weapons with IG making you immortal in the air and CB being the best at dps, slice, ko, defense and element at the same time

Opted for not having a real endgame and having you grind quest levels to make the monsters more difficult

Thats just 4U and what I remember off the top of my head
Daily reminder you were literally FORCED to mount in Rise before it was turned into an option in Sunbreak

Thanks for assuming that's my list, but no, it is not mine, but I do agree that a lot of things that we used to have were indeed, removed.
Still, my point stands, game has been streamlined to the point in which most of the old systems cannot exist due to the fact the game wants to be as streamlined as possible.
Basically, the RPG side of the game, for better or worse for the series has been reworked into an extremely minimalistic thing, to avoid grinds and maximize "action".

You can turn off mounting in Sunbreak?

Oh nooooo I don’t have to manually gather from every fucking farm? Food is done with ingredients you gather instead of at a kitchen? Drop rates are higher? The humanity

Whites are fucking dumb. Asians are based and whites need to stop gloaming into them. They ruin everything Asians make. Can't stand whites these days.

YWNBAA

post hands now

More stuff

Magazines, books and mat and armor descriptions having a shit ton of lore in the game, instead of just cookie cutter templates

Quests descriptions telling stories like a princess watching a rathalos burning a village while all she could do is watch

Dark areas and torches to light up said areas

Secret areas you could spawn in at the start of a quest

Quests starting you in random.spots at high rank

Secret areas monsters could open up

Post your college degree, oh wait you're a home-schooled retard

play God Eater, the anime artstyle filters out normalfags

First Monster Hunter with no gameplay

And thats a good thing. More time for video games. Right Anon Babble?

Correct, yes, you do not have to do that anymore, and drop rates are indeed higher, thus the game has been streamlined.
I am not really getting the point you are trying to make, since I am not sure if you are trying to agree with me, or disagree with me by agreeing with me.

Food is done from ingredients you gather

This is how it was done in Dos
Wilds is more of a classic monhun than 4U and World are.

THAT'S RIGHT I AIN'T AA I'M AC
AFRICAN CANADIAN
GET IT RIGHT

Don't care. I'm enjoying it. Get Big Banged.

he thinks having a college degree is impressive

lol, everyone I know has a college degree. it's not exactly hard to get one

So does the inexistent fashion apparently.

Even women are getting degrees nowadays it is easier than ever to get into college and its asking less of you

he probably is mystery meat from the ghetto and having a college degree there is still somewhat impressive kek

Milds is genuinely just terrible. Small ass roster. The fights aren't challenging enough. Wound mechanic is broken. Frenzy monster don't function properly, are sparse and ultimately serve no real purpose. There's barely any optional quests and side quests to unlock unique gear. Not enough interesting Event quests either. Artian weapons overpower every other weapon, but fuck trying to get the optimal reinforcements (and most of them look terrible). Shit optimization, visuals and ost. Terrible UI. LR might as well not have any quests because of the shitty ass story. Many weapons don't feel good to play.

Honestly, the game has very little redeeming qualities.

Not him
There is some fashion in godeater
The gameplay itself is a bit wonky but enjoyable of you're into it.
Just played the psp games tho
Heard the one on pc was kinda good

Well? Are you not going to post any?

I cant bring myself to even finish the story. It's such a fucking slog.

3rd was PSP

100 hours of gameplay and 300 hours of grinding

versus

20 hours of handholding interactive cinematics and 30 hours of grinding

wowzers

I dont have random godeater sets in my phone (sorry), anon

A very retarded take

You can turn off the forced mounting when the monster goes in the wirebug bondage state
To make it a button prompt

Padded

NOOO WE CANT HAVE PALICOS AND CHACHAS ON THE SAME GAME?

WHY? UHHH SHUT UP

nooooo the game doesn’t have Palamutes Sekrets Prowlers Chacha Palicos Monsties and Rove mode it’s fucking vaporware

Goes for an insane strawm due to lack of arguments

Give me a plausible reason for Palicos and Chacha, who serve the same purpose but with different mechanics cant coexist.

Prowlers

Gu is not monhun

Monsties

Rise had them, rise isnt monster hunter either tho

Palamutes

See above

Rove mode

TU3

putrid dogshit

:|

putrid dogshit (available on PC)

:O

shit on it day 1

friends get upset

week later no one is playing it

"yeah I'm just not motivated to turn it on"

Wow almost like I was right about the fucking game.

Putrid dogshit (3ds)

The terrible combat gameplay filters me out, personally.

Actually Tri isn’t Mon hun either so that’s why Cha Cha isn’t in retard

No monster hunter on nintendo was good

They just cut the meat straight to the bone, nobody wants to spent more than 3 minutes on a videogame.

Game becomes popular in America

Suddenly the devs have to pander to sub 70 iq tards

What did the japs mean by that?

3ds and world faggots always complained the old games had too much "tedium"

Get streamlined monster hunter

WAAHH NO CONTENT

Almost like that "tedium"... Was actually good?

you can't have a good Monster Hunter without pickaxes breaking and extremely long gathering animations

The older games are better but the true tedium of those games is not why they're better.

that america isn't white anymore

Extremely long gathering animations

Damn, people cant wait 1.5 seconds huh?

I think people want to have that feel of "building something" instead of instantly crafting everything from a single hunt.
Before you could hunt the monster 10 times and not have the stuff you need for your chestpiece.

you do realize that thirdies are not familiar with this very feeling

some would say the same about MH

Hunt something

You are practically now able to craft a full set from it

Doesn't even matter because most of the cool shit is locked behind the weapon either way

I do not want the 10 point system, but fuck man, this system is awful.

I'd give it a shot if it was more complex, played the first one and it was really simple, in every aspect.

nta the problem isnt' the duration but that you had to do it 6 times for every spot and it was definitely more than 1.5 seconds
