nintendo

if the reason is "it's on Switch"

that's a terrible reason

3DS, Playstation, or PC all have vastly superior games (not judging content volume)

I mean for some people that's all they need

World is losing it's playerbase and while I do love old monster hunter games GS will never feel as good in them as it does in world/rise

That said I've never played a monster hunter game so

and I love my GS

I was very hyped for Rise, played enough to know I have no interest ever picking it up again

which is a shame

how come?

but hey, the Monster Hunter Board Game is right around the corner

don't like the wirebug stuff?

I'm sure that will be great

Wirebug was fine, it's just like the hook in Iceborne

I was personally not a fan of the clutch claw in iceborne

it started to get real old, real fast

I like/dislike both about equally

in comparison there's a lot more you can do with the wirebug

idk

If you play super aerial, maybe they're more fun

also new mounting is cool

it serves no purpose though

?

it does

it's a free stun + damage

if you could fight worth a damn from your paliko's back, then maybe

oh

no I mean monster mounting

OH

nonono

and the dog is just transportation

monster mounting is great

yeah the dog thing is what I thought you meant

it's an upgraded raider ride

less jank since it's not ai controlled

just a straight improvement tbh

we played different games

I'm glad they got it running well on Switch I guess, seemed like it didn't drop below 30FPS

would have been bad if it had been dipping lower

I'm still not really sure why you didn't like it tbh, but I guess just opinion stuff

I guess they're used to optimizing games for shitty systems

COUGH 3ds COUGH

The combat is fine, the systems around the combat are far worse to me

3ds was my first experience with monster hunter

I played a demo

and it controlled so terribly

I started with wii

tri iirc

so in my mind, it's a huge regression from World, which means I have no reason to play it and I think the 3DS version is honestly more fun for a light MH experience

that I never wanted to play again

then I played world and it was actually good

should finish it sometime

I played the shit out of tri, 4, generations and eventually world

will probably spend a few hundred hours on rise as well

if Rise was streamlined MH, or if it was a fully fledged game of it's own. I'd be happy with either but it feels like a lite version of MH World

I mean we've literally had 3 monsters so far lol

and one map

I don't think it's bad, it just lost me with how many of the systems felt so much worse than MHW

I'm not judging content

of course Rise will have less, even when it's fully out, that doesn't matter

I still don't really get which systems you mean honestly

everything was about equal or improved

imo

I think movement is cool, wirebug is more interesting in the long run than claw, palamute is WAY better than raider ride and it's janky ai

+ the maps are still open in the same way world does it and they even added more interactions with the buff bugs

oh and mounting is cool

I didn't really look into it since I mainly focused on combat, but I've heard they did something to gathering that people don't like? idk

If what you're looking for is just more MH content, Rise is fine. I don't really think it matters if I nitpick the game

the core is still MH, which is good and all

Yeah I was just confused about what you mean, since I genuinely can't really think of anything that was much worse

but in the end it's all opinions anyways

The part that is worse to me is the overall flow of the exploration/hunting part of the game, which is contributed by a lot of small changes the combat is the same, tweaks aren't really that major unless you played the old weapons at a high level and appreciate what was changed technically the game runs fine (for being on the Switch) metagame progression is the same, there's plenty of new content, but none of the systems they added really panned out to adding to the game for me over what was there before

so other than the new content, to me it's just an inferior game to World, even when you adjust for the differences between Playstation/PC and Switch

I don't think it's bad, if I said that I misspoke, I just think the game is mediocre compared to the trajectory I thought the series was on after World

here's the board game btw

Hmm

I forgot that 3d world had that retarded top of the flag pole 1up as an actual objective
