Why isnt it a numbered entry?

Why do you care?

The devs literally said they aren't using a number so they don't intimidate anyone new out of trying the series.

New platforms, new customers. Numbers can alienate. In a series where there's no continuity, might as well have a subtitle instead of a number.

>>383049502
It's clearly a series reboot, so long to all that amazing lore.

Makes sense, it works for Pokemon.

Why were there so many 4 games anyways

>>383049502
Becuase if you called it 5 people would wonder where the fuck are the other 4

>>383049502
If (when) it flops they can just make a numbered version on Switch to recoup the losses.

>>383049502
Because it's the first game actually kind of targeting the west so they don't want to scare new players off. Pretty obvious bruh use your damn brain

>>383049502
cuz that MH is for weak people
easy mode

>>383049502
So that if it flops they can claim it was a spin off.

Because when it flops in japan and the sales in the rest of the world don't compensate, they can come crawling back to the japs with monster hunter 5.
