>Some people have maybe taken this as “the Westerners didn’t like the potion animation, so they’ve taken it out. They’re trying to appease Western casuals.” But… we don’t just start picking our own game apart at the seams like that!
>It’s just that now the monsters can be anywhere near you and there’s no loading barrier to hide behind. You can’t jump out of the area by one pixel and suddenly be safe and have time to do your animation – you have to be ready to face the monster. It’s almost like the pace is much quicker.

I think when you get a series that runs for quite a few years… the numbers start to get bigger and bigger, and it starts to become increasingly off-putting for somebody who isn’t into the series already. They might think “am I going to try Monster Hunter 5 when I haven’t played the first 4? What if I don’t get it?” and so on. We wanted to take the next main-line title and name it in a way that is indicative of the key concept of the game.

This coming from "Characters are just functions. Nobody remembers the X-men" Capcom.
Luke Reed
What about arena areas in the regular MH games with no exit?
Ryan Butler
I am glad they at least addressed it, I am slightly at ease now, but given Capcom's track record, especially with Street Fighter V, I am still cautiously optimistic. I am just glad I don't have to sell a $100 Nintendo Machine to people to get them to play one of my favorite game series now.

Lincoln Mitchell
Those are completely different divisions within Capcom though. Their fighting games have been seriously fucked lately, but I doubt that this will have any impact on the MH team
Owen Morgan
Yeah, as if devs are going to come out and fuckin admit "yeah we're making the game more casual because retards overseas won't buy it unless it's easier." Dumbass.
Grayson Garcia
You never needed to leave the area to use a potion, even in G-rank. This is casualization, just admit it.
Grayson Bennett
tdlr version?
Lincoln Long
Get fucked fag
William Wright
>Hiding a in a different zone to heal and buff >Not waiting for the monster to start a long attack or be distracted by a teammate. Casualization confirmed
Anthony Nelson
This Not to mention all the hard stuff takes place in arena maps anyways so you couldn't just zone out whenever to heal even if you wanted to
Parker Clark

Nolan Myers
Fucking triggered.
I'm so tired of people complaining that monster hunter "wont be the same"...The devs even said its a mainline monster hunter title.

if you don't like being able to move while using a potion then just stand still
Hunter Evans
The best part is almost all of these are going to be included into this new monster hunter game, while the worst that happened with the Nintendo games were putting some content behind a time lock, but making sure it was free.
Now that same content will be cut and you'll be forced to pay for it. Enjoy paying for G-rank metal raths in World.
Elijah Smith

> > >Those are completely different divisions within Capcom though. Their fighting games have been seriously fucked lately, but I doubt that this will have any impact on the MH team
Can people stop saying this MH team is still own by Capcom who's been on a record track to fuck up their operations. If Capcom told MH team we want it casual as fuck MH team would have to do it or simply lose their jobs or leave and make an spiritual successor to Monster Hunter.
I'm not saying the game is good or bad we officially don't know anything outside shills like proShill/Gajin shill and devs who work for Capcom anything.
Especially after abysmal demo Capcom put out on Marvel vs Capcom infinite. I'm skeptical and everyone else should be as well. Regardless of the track record of the monster Hunter team. The 20 min showcase didn't really do anything well to show it wasn't casualize at all either it just left more questions than answers.
James Robinson
dollar map DLC which game had that?
Gavin Cruz
What about those gameplay changes already on the demo?
Andrew Gutierrez
Source or fuck off with your strawman victim complex nintenbro.
Jeremiah Bell
>t. babby that started at X and has played it for 20 hours
If I catch you getting hit while sharpening (like I know you're fucking gonna), your ass is getting kicked out.
Ryder Gutierrez
Nigga are you really that dumb or did you only start playing MonHun at 4? All the DLC basically cost nothing to make because 99% of it was either sponsored content from Japanese magazines or it was PS2 assets ported from 2nd Gen.
Jackson Jackson
>If Capcom told MH team we want it casual as fuck MH team would have to do it or simply lose their jobs or leave and make an spiritual successor to Monster Hunter. Monster Hunter's producer is the son of the CEO of Capcom, he can probably get away with a lot of shit.
Aaron Taylor
The only time shit ever got "real" in g-rank was event quests / apex monsters / hyper deviants and 9 times out of 10 you'd be one-shot, making potions irrelevant.
Isaiah Lewis
>RE6 >DmC >MvC:I >Dead Rising 3 Should I keep going?
Dominic Turner

Gavin Diaz
Let's be honest here. If, and I mean if, they're really pushing this whole "monsters are everywhere" thing and they left flexing in then it would be Dark Souls 3 all over again where everything operated by Bloodborne rules except the players.
Andrew Perry
Not a argument, come back with a well written counter argument
Connor Foster
>sfv >DmC >MVCI >MHX >RE6 >DR4
What game has capcom made recently that hasn't been casualized. World will be the nail in the coffin
Noah Flores
The answer they give doesn't work anyways because some of the hardest fights in the series take place in arenas or areas you can't zone. Monsters give you tons of time to heal and even sharpen.
>We want a larger audience
Gavin Taylor
A vast majority of DLC these days is just cut content from the main game. It costs nothing to make, which is why they chop it off to sell it later. Which Capcom does for all their games.
Also you forget how Capcom put cheat codes behind a paywall.
Dylan Gonzalez
Blow me faggot, I've played every single game (yes even PS2 MH) and I've solo'd every single quest both off and online in every game since Tri. I don't need you.
Come talk shit when YOU put in 3k+ hours in this fucking franchise.
Connor James
Have they confirmed Balrog and the Lord of Lightning for MHW yet?
Cameron Richardson
No, I mean you're actually stupid. MonHun dlc has always been porting old monsters in nearly unchanged to the new entry and giving it a hunt on various difficulties.
The difference between 3DS games and World is that they basically can't get away with porting PS2 monsters anymore and have to make new versions.
No shit they're going to charge. Every expansion for every game is basically you paying for the new monsters and now even old monsters are going to be "new" due to new assets, animations, textures, etc.
Evan Wilson
>"It’s almost like the pace is much quicker."
See, I'm not even a monhunfag but I can tell they're damage controlling for actually changing the game up. Their games being changed for easier money and Capjew is trying to hide it, so of course the monhun fanbase is gonna sperg out.
I personally believe the monhun fags are as autistic as DaS's community but no core fanbase deserves to have what they love shit on for casuals, it's been an all too common thing since 2007 or so. All this is, is another cash in on casuals attempt by Capcom, because unlike capcom doesn't ever fucking learn from its mistakes, see SF5.
Fuck a corporations money, the second you shit on your core fanbase you're asking for a temporary and non lasting gain from a unstable market of non dedicated players who wont last you but a 1 or 2 entry net gain of profits. Overall long term capcom's going to suffer for this and will have to fall back to "WE'RE GONNA RELEASE A CLASSIC MONHUN" like they do anytime they fuck up and try to save face. Mark my words this WILL happen.
Capcom LOVES fucking up.
William Gray
Yes, they actually do that all the time. There are plenty of examples where devs said "people had problems with this so we changed it" so I have no idea what you're talking about here. Dumbass.
Not to mention that people can't really complain about MH being too hard unless they bought it. But MH actually sold more and more with 4U being the best seller in the west so far. The sales rised, they didn't fall. Which wouldn't make sense if people stayed off it they found it too hard. Casualization isn't and never was a solution for more sales in the west.
Most people in the west are simply not interested in arcade games which repeat the same missions over and over again. But you fags will complain about any change anyway, because you're too stupid to see a franchise for what it is and see any change as hostile takeover. Stay classy Sup Forums
Brayden Garcia
>because unlike others* capcom doesn't ever fucking learn from its mistakes, see SF5.
Fuck my tired typos.
Eli Watson
You're a retard and don't know how DLC quests for monster hunter works.
They never make new monsters. Only higher difficulty or with a gimmick. In the case of both 4U and Generations, they put certain classes of monsters behind DLC so you couldn't finish certain armor and weapon paths until the DLC was released.
Given how Capcom and Sony together love to jew their base. "For the Payers!" Expect to see these exact sort of quests that were originally free, to now be behind a paywall because of how much more it costs to make World.
You have been warned.
Jayden Butler
DmC wasn't terrible.
Leo Peterson
Let me put your post this way: The same arguments could and were made for DmC. It was a watered down, shit game. I do not care about Capcom's profits. I do not care about their overall sales if it means sacrificing quality of gameplay. I care about gameplay. I am a consumer of their products, not an investor. If my choices are for them to attempt to make a profit while making a good game and possibly fail or make a worse game but have the safety net to keep making them I would choose the former every fucking time.
Kevin Bailey
Considering the amount of fuckups capcom had with revitalising old franchises with new stuff like Dead Rising, DMC, Street Fighter, why can't people be worried when they're doing this with fucking Monster Hunter? I bet a hundred dollars you defend SFV too
Andrew Roberts
>drop-in multiplayer >select quest from list of people that have sent out SOS
Cool, I can't wait to jump in during the last 5 minutes of a quest and hit the monster twice, get full credit, and craft all my gear more easily than ever before!
Gabriel Morris
And this is where we part ways. If you are okay with DmC then I have no further conversation with you because you'll be okay with anything.
Jackson Bennett
Wow not only are you stupid you're immensely illiterate.
Dominic Flores
Being optimistic for World is difficult considering how often Capcom has fucked up by trying to do this exact same thing before.
Henry Moore
so everything people have been saying was just reiterated by the guy who made it
huh
Jayden Davis
You kidding me? Not that user but they are 100% right. Capcom DLC is less than a MB. The files are all 100% already in the game. The armor and weapons you get from it are already in the game. They just make the quest available. That's it.
Nathan James
How does CrapCum's dick taste?
Ethan Evans
>gated content is inherently bad >even if it's free lol
Samuel Hernandez
And if it wasn't free? That's what the worry is about. Are you the one that is illiterate? I mean, Capcom already charges Japs just for the ability to play online just because fuck it.
Evan Foster
there are some concerns that are valid like healing and the heartbeat thing
but that's pretty much it
Henry Rivera
If the monsters and environment changes why the fuck wouldn't you change player interaction too? Clearly we can see why they might need to have changed healing and item use right?
Chase Nguyen
>There are still people on this planet who trust Crapcum to put out a decent video game in 2017 Man what fucking school you go to? How many shitty Crapcum games need to come out before you realize that they're fucking ass now because they have no fucking money?
Tyler Walker
>just because fuck it I doubt this >and if it isn't free i'll judge it when I see it. If it is somehow worse than the constant rehashing then I will join you in calling it out for bullshit
I don't associate monster hunter with the other franchises because deviation from certain concepts in those games is far more damaging than in monster hunter
especially something like street fighter where the competitive aspect draws out the smallest flaws and requires more consistency
if we get a rathalos porting across the map on a rare occasion or doing something weird nobody really cares
Zachary Wood
>>It’s just that now the monsters can be anywhere near you and there’s no loading barrier to hide behind. You can’t jump out of the area by one pixel and suddenly be safe and have time to do your animation – you have to be ready to face the monster Lots of the more difficult fights have one-way entrances, and you can only get back via kitty cart.
Aaron Cox
I'm not getting what you're implying here
player interaction? it's supposedly the same?
Jack Perez
t. co-op leeches who hide behind teammates or cats to heal try playing a man's game like FU alone, that'll grow ya some chest hairs
Elijah Martinez
Well they are the ones that are perfectly fine with their favorite series reusing the same assets and everything from the very first fucking game over a decade ago and paying full price for each iteration and its updated versions EVERY TIME. Why wouldn't Capcom realize this and milk them more?
Samuel Gomez
while xx is the worst monster hunter game it isn't anywhere near the magnitude of the other shitshows
Juan Wright
They lack talent not just money
Jonathan Sanchez
You doubt it? It's fucking fact. MHTri is a great example. Capcom had a subscription service for Japanese players. American and EU players didn't have to pay to get online. They've only dropped it because they can't double-dip with Sony/Microsoft charging for online as well. You're living in total fucking denial. As says, they will try to get away with whatever they can to make money.
Why the fuck are you trusting Capcom for a second? And fuck, we have people in here defending DmC for Christsakes
Jackson Powell
But this time it's different! It won't be like DMC! It won't be like lost planet! It won't be like Street fighter! It won't be like resident evil! Don't you see those were all just slips???
Colton Jackson

More like you're in full damage control.
Aiden Gutierrez
I don't need a PhD to know they said, "Oh shit, we have to host some servers. Let's charge the players and make a profit as well." This isn't the only series that has done that in Japan. Subscription services are way more common there.
Your argument is wholly retarded. Am I not allowed to criticize on-disc DLC for games because I may not understand "Japanese economics?" An anti-consumer decision is anti-consumer, period.
And you are forgetting who pays and owns MHTeam. Look at what happened with Street Fighter, for example.
Ayden Myers

Like any decent hunter does that. Come on brah.
Easton Morgan
I doubt Capcom will fuck up MHW, but if they do, they will have officially ruin all of their major franchises. At that point they might as well file for bankruptcy or hopefully get bought out by Bandai namco.
Isaiah Williams
>DMC Outsourced. >Lost Planet Outsourced. >SFV Outsourced. >Resident Evil What's so bad about RE again? Rev 1 and 2 were both fine. 6 was pretty bad but the mercs mode was fun. RE7 was good.

Cooper Adams

Sebastian Sanders
It has been released man.
Michael Jackson
You mean the main-line team that has been reusing assets for the past 10 years? Yeah I trust them going out of their comfort zone and actually working on a game
Ayden Anderson
Nice arguement.
Brody Morris
Nice spelling dipshit
Landon Price
Nintendofags are so fucking triggered by MH being on a Sony platform. Somehow an open world design is bad.
Jaxon Cox
what about the crossover DLC and whatnot
John Thomas
How fucking upset would MHfags be if this manages to outsell every MH game to date and the jap fanbase love it?
Anthony Phillips
Damage control. Video was blatantly view botted. People know it's casualized shit. GG Crapcom. Hopefully they go under and Nintendo can pick up their two worthwhile franchises, Okami and DMC.
Camden Price
Again, all of that is in the game from the start, they just unlock the quests over time You'll often see hackers with DLC gear ahead of its normal release date
Leo Thomas
Did you play Tri?
>LOL you misspelled a word guess that means I don't have to make an argument :^)
Parker Kelly
Does it matter? It just means the series' fanbase is different. Its happened with lots of games that got casualized. I don't get why Sup Forums loves casualization so much when it claims to be different.
Josiah Turner
