Are Capcom right for not bringing MHXX Switch to the west? Would

>>386758302
It'll probably come to the west, but only after World. World is their top priority in the west.

Capcom wants me too:
>Pretend Worlds is a mainline
>Buy it on a stationary system
>Alter my gameplay habits and the one of all the people that play monhun with me locally every week.
>Continue supporting them after not localizing the expansion of Generations in any shape or form

I have to say Capcom is the most optimistic company in the whole world.

>>386758302
I was considering importing a jap copy.

But, I'll probably just give Dauntless a whirl instead.

>>386758302
The 3ds has more charm to it imo.

There's no need to bring it to the West. You can just buy any other Monster Hunter and get exactly the same experience.

>>386758302
I would've pirated it on 3DS and I say this as a Nintendo Switch owner.

Besides all real MH fans know that MHXX is a cash grab, the real MH game is Worlds.

Well I'm already waiting for world on PC.
I can wait until XX hits the states.

>>386761292
Online retailers are historically pretty unreliable for this kind of thing. This is doubly so for French retailers, specifically.

Capcom not wanting to bother with the Switch isn't surprising, but I would've actually bought the 3DS version.

>>386758302
Yeah I will when it comes over.
I'll probably buy World too but I'm a bit more cautious about that since it's the first game in gen 5, and those usually lack content.

>>386760709

Every fucking time

who cares? mh world is out early next year and it's on PC.

I'd buy both XX and World.

>>386761896
I hope the PC version doesn't take too long to come out

How come no one ever brings up the fact that MonHun is ass?

>>386758302
I don't know if they are right as I don't know what it would cost the company to localize it nor the risk that it exposes them to but I would've bought it simply for monhun and the new smt. Plus i like the switch and it will likely be hacked in the near future.

>>386760536
Nigger you have like 30 different versions of monhun to choose from if you wanna play your 3ds in public. Capcom isn't forcing you to play their next mainline title. That's for people who refuse to buy Fischer Price toys.

>>386762016

Because it's fun.

>>386762016
Because they like it and they have a different perspective on the franchise than you.

I'm importing XX, already preordered.
Also skipping Worlds, might pirate on PC, but I'm sure as hell not giving Capcom a single penny for it.

That's smart. Never get into a MH that's first of it's gen because it most likely doesn't have much content.

Also might be casualized to hell and back since capcom is desperate enough to release it on almost all platforms

>>386762749
Check the footage, it already is, but discussion is impossible with console warriors defending it to death no matter what.

>Tutorial lady talks you through an entire hunt, step by step
>Insect Glaive can just dash through the air and not get hit
>Grappling hook lol

Thats it so far, I havent watched much footage, but everything I've seen so far has been negative

>>386758302
I probably will buy it anyway, too bad none of my hunting buddies have a switch

>>386762864
I only watched the first trailer and completely checked out after gaijinhunter started shilling for it.

Probably when it was on sale for like $20-$30. I never buy monhun right away because Capcom actively does sales (at least on the 3ds). Also because after a while it becomes monotonous, game doesn't change enough to pay full price each time. Online fuckery is the only good part so 4U was worth getting. Still debating on Generations.

>>386758302
No, Gen/XX are unironically the worst MH games I've played. I don't find them fun at all. The only redeeming factors about XX was Super Azurebolt Astalos and maybe Brave SA. I'm actually hyped for World because it looks like a less shitty Tri, I loved the comfy free hunt mode and having a whole game be like that would be pretty nice.

>>386763113
PS4 DQXI is the worst selling DQ main game ever, pulled just around 200k PS4 systems and it was still outsold by the 3DS version.
And that's a series that's traditionally played on home consoles.
Monhun is culturally a handheld game.
There's no hype for it in Japan at all either.
It will bomb spectacularly.

>>386758302
Eh, maybe down the line, i would have bought it for 3ds though for sure

Vaulting is stamina based, you can't do it forever and it doesn't make you invincible. Expect "Je suis monte" to make a glorious comeback.

I assume it's to make up for the increase in map size and verticality. No one wants to spend 2 minutes climbing vines, especially when the monster can now charge up that wall to slap your shit.

For me, it's not that big a deal. My main gripe is that there's no explanation on how the fireflies work exactly. I wouldn't want it to be "Follow this to objective" but I can see it being something for low rank only, or limited in it's use. Maybe an item cap or at least a time limit.

That's the tip of the iceberg, I just really fucking hate Gen/XX. HAs gave me the largest hateboner for the game, and before you say "BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE THEM!", yeah you do because the stupid deviants have ungodly high HP and in XX, you're dealing with multiple high HP deviants so you kinda have to minmax or you're taking forever. I'd rather deal with swimming or Apex again than fucking HAs and Deviants.

I always thought it was. It was horrid in FU and 4U because of how much the monster would flee too. If a monster in the bottom area of the hollows would flee, you'd spend more than a few minutes just watching loading screens.

>>386764084
There's a reason everyone takes the piss out of the MGS2 ladder scene, anon.

I understand the technical limitations at the time and a desire to add a semblance of realism, but there's no excuse for it now. The addition of the grappling hook offers more than just a quick way to travel. You can shoot rocks to gain the attention of a monster, use it to activate natural hazards and who knows what else.

I don't see why it's such a problem for people. More than often I just see it as an excuse to complain rather than offer constructive criticism.

Though I don't expect much from /v/ nowadays.

>>386758302
In the short term, they are right. they don't want to clog the market, considering that they are gambling pretty heavily on World. This move makes sense, because overcrowding the market could split the consumer base. XX might sell way better than they expected and MHW may bomb, or vice versa.

In the long term, they are wrong. Because the amount of sales they want from World most likely won't happen. Even if World takes off and sells well, which is a possibility, the retention rate will be very low. Even if they do try to westernize monhun to expand the brand, it's still monhun. The gameplay only appeals to a certain crowd. Normal folk, especially Americans, will likely get tired of the grind and drop the game.

regardless of what happens, I do think both games will sell well in Japan considering the demand for the Switch and the current size of Japan's PS4 market. I also think XX will eventually get localized in the west, but not until after MHW comes out. It will be interesting to see if MHW fails in Japan due to it being a console. I know mobile/handheld gaming is all the rage right now, but I feel like monhun would sell well on anything not named Xbox over there.

>>386758302
i would unironically buy it

>>386764862
MGS3*

My bad.

>>386763702
i wouldnt call Gen a bad game, it is mediocre for Monster Hunter standards.

The weapon arts completely screwed over some weapons like the Switch Axe's axe mode, or turned already great weapons into overpowerness like the Sword and Shield oils and the sword mode for the SA.

The deviant grinding is way too much, even moreso on XX now adding 5 extra levels so have fun hunting the same monster like 40+ times.

There is a complete lack of progression since there is no story whatsoever, you simply listen to the villages doing a tourist attraction warmongering.

For you monster Hunter autists, which one on 3ds should I start with? I haven't installed all of them and I'll freeshop whichever one is the best

the framerate makes the switch version unplayable for me. i'll just wait for world.

>>386765280
the only 3ds monster hunter worth playing is 4 ultimate.

>>386758302

I played the demo. Honestly don't get the hype surrounding Monster Hunter. BOTW and Xenoblade are more fun than this game.

>>386764862
>You can shoot rocks to gain the attention of a monster, use it to activate natural hazards and who knows what else.
But why? Why waste time on shit like that to look at the pretty physics and grafix when I could just use a flashbomb/bow vial/whack it into submission?
It doesn't feel like it belongs except to appease people who thought MH was too slow and boring, but why would a majority of that audience even care about this one?

>>386765582
The most drastic change in Worlds is the open maps.

MH at it's core has unknowingly been designed around that concept. Dung bombs to separate monsters, flexing to increase risk of being hit and deter spamming, etc.

Now that it's open, people would complain more about the fact that some common tactics now become useless so they're trying to work around that problem. That includes the use of mantles, rock launching and anything that can lower a monsters aggro towards another player. A flash bomb will still work, having other players keep it busy will still work. It's just another option.

If you remove everything that inconviences people you'll end up with shti like current World of Warcraft. Is that really what you want?

Who would complain, no seriously, who would have a problem with less load times? Who in their right mind would think MH would be so much worse if it was the same game but you didn't have to wait a minute or two to move areas? Loading is not part of the hunt, having to switch areas is, and what tactics are ruined by being open world? Having to leave area to eat or heal which is unnecessary as it is?

>>386767049
>Who in their right mind would think MH would be so much worse if it was the same game but you didn't have to wait a minute or two to move areas?

>are they right for not bringing XXSwitch to the west

No, I can't imagine the local licensing etc costs could possibly outweigh the sales profits from even modest numbers in the west, especially if they just said fuck it and went digital-only. There was easy money to be had, especially with how thirsty Switch owners are for more games, and Capcom's just going to sit on its hands and pass that up. That said...

>would you have bought it

No, and I pretty much knew I wasn't going to without a radical departure from the usual game->Grank game formula as soon as I got to the second half of Generations, well before XX 3ds was even announced for Japan. All the most obnoxious bullshit, like using the existence of Absolute evades and Adept (and subsequently Brave) styles to excuse poor monster attack animations/hitboxes/nonsensical flailings that somehow count as attacks, Deviant monster quest levelling, arbitrary ticket system from Deviant quests, arbitrary material scarcity and rewardbox-only nature of Hyper materials, Frontier a.o.e.'s and xtreeeeeeeehmeh shit, all of this returning and doubled down on (rather than cleaned up and improved) for G rank. I wasn't having any more of it.

The one good thing XX introduces (that really should have been in 4U, especially with all the Relic gear you could get) that was a good idea was armor Transmog (if you have helmet A and helmet B you can use helmet A's stats with helmet B's appearance, etc) and even then they fucked that up somewhat by making it costly (zeni and special trade items) and consume the equipment used as the visual layer so long as it's involved in that transmog when ideally transmog would just be a menu option at the equipment chest.

Personally I'm looking forward to MHWorld, but with ever-increasing caution to my optimism.

Was that so hard? Being able grapple makes fleeing from monsters too easy. Guess what nigga? These mechanics have existed as they have for a damn good reason. You think on your feet, weigh your options, and triumph through skill and mastery core tenants to game like this.

Probably because it is primarily seen as a portable franchise in Japan. the Japs like it as a portable game and since 4chan is generally where are the weebs of the world congregate, they, by default, prefer it as a portable franchise too.

I don't really care though. if the monhun game is good, I will play it.

Do you enjoy lying to yourself?

XX seems alright but it doesn't fix the main problems I had with Gen (deviant quests and how armor skills were handled) so I'd probably skip it and wait for World.

>>386758302
I was on the fence about buying a switch for monhun 5. But with World that not happening anymore. I would have bought XX for my 3ds though.

>>386774852

Additionally, DQVII on PSX sold 1.8 million week one and the 3DS version sold a little over 800k week one. The more you know.

>>386758302
is it just me or FU/P3rd on the PSP had better graphics?

maybe it's just the art direction but that water and that sand look fucking disgusting.

I'm playing through FU right now and it looks infinitely better.

>>386775698
You can't be serious

>>386758302

I'd buy it since I love MonHun and since there's no overlapping between MHW and XX, they are fools for not doing so.

Hell, I bought a PSP and 3DS just for MH.

>>386775848
I am. like I said, it could be the art direction, but the beach on FU looks a lot better.

It doesn't look bad but XX has better textures and a better resolution.

I'd be curious to see what a Switch MH would look like without copy-pasting the areas and models from the 3DS.

How the fuck do I get on the Japanese eShop to download the demo?

>>386778365
Make a japanese nintendo account.

>>386758430
Wouldn't that be too late/long? By then they'll announce the next MH in JP.

>>386778621
That's kinda how it's always been with MH, besides World getting a simultaneous release.

I watched someone fighting the rocket dragon.
I know it's not fair to base the entire game on one monster, especially one that has a reputation for being shit, but I'm kind of glad XX isn't coming over.

Might as well wait for World at this point.

>>386785027
it's probably going to get the portable or G equivalent of World if Capcom doesn't just make G rank a DLC

they're too jewish to not double dip with sales

>>386784506
In order to get it running at 60fps you'd have to lower the graphics to minimum, so you can just pretend you're playing mh5

I wouldn't mind it jumping from one console to the other, but as it stands I don't really feel like playing a pesudo dragon's dogma for retards with a litteral glowing orb showing you everywhere you need to go.

>>386758302
XX is definitely coming for switch

>>386785505
yes, in a couple weeks

>>386762016
Because we've all told you before, people are allowed have different opinions than you. Sorry you had to drop out of grade school before they taught you that.

>>386758302
they're completely fucking retarded for passing up the opportunity to release a game on the switch in the first year while switch owners are desperate for games to justify their purchase. Monhun switch would've easily sold 1 million in US alone and all they had to do was pay that fuckface localizer who thought glaive anus was a good name to localize a quarter of a games worth of new text.

World will probably do as well as Monhun ever does, but honestly if they had wanted to reach new fans releasing on the switch right now while it's got so few games would've been the smartest move.

Does XX do anything new and is it good

>>386758302
they aren't but I'm sure it's going to come.

I will buy it when it does.

>>386787192
it has brave and alchemy style, brave is like adept but you hold sheathe to win, alchemy is terrible "support" style. It has a mid quest item delivery system, which is nifty but pretty casual. It has transmog but that's locked behind lots of G rank bullshittery. Also the standard G rank stuff, a decent amount of returning monsters and maps. I like it.

>>386784452

>>386765321
>60fps is unplayable

I fully expect Incapcompetent to tie the game physics to the framerate for World, which means 30fps lock even on PC.

>>386787745
It's not on a nintendo console. I can't blame them for complaining about that. It's the whole reason I haven't gone past MHFU.

>>386784452
They built a bunch of the mechanics around the game running at 30, like with darksouls 1 where upping the framerate causes bugs, they didn't want to go through all the code and re-write a bunch of stuff.

It was short sighted.

>>386784550
Don't worry man. I saw that. It's wrong, but I always saw it.

Arekkz was always going to love the idea of a westernized Monster Hunter, just look at the other games he enjoys playing. Gaijinhunter, on the other hand, is 100% corporate still at this point, so I had no choice but to unsubscribe.

>>386787745
Massive overhaul with an attempt to pander to non fans is a recipe for existing fans being skeptical of a new game

>>386768573
Hey shill, stop using the same reaction images. It's cringy

>>386788430
I can understand being skeptical but the hunting looks the same.

>>386769240
Honestly, I think Capcom is sitting on an almost fully localised XX at this point, and is just waiting on Nintendo to make the announcement. Though I expect it won't happen until they've finished shilling Stories.

>>386767817
>Trying to make fun of people meeting up after class to Monhun

Seriously? Meeting up for some local hunting is literally the best part of the game. Sorry you thing having friends is lame.

>>386786720
There are problems with those expectations for World. Monster Hunter 4 sold aound 4 million on the 3DS in Japan alone. The most any PS4 game has sold in Japan is 1 million, and only two games have ever reached that number: Final Fantasy XV and Dragon Quest XI. Expecting Monster Hunter World to match 3DS numbers in Japan would require it to outsell Dragon Quest. To match 3DS numbers overall, it would need to find a massive new audience in the west.

>>386758302
If I had a switch yeah I would buy it, I haven't bought any MH game but the first one. I always wanted to get more but couldnt justify buying a psp/3ds/wii for just mh and maybe one or two other games.

The general consensus among MH veterans is when MHXX Switch was announced, they were already resigned to the fate of being forced to buy another gimmicky underpowered handheld just to get their MH fix, despite hating to do so (mind you that average MH fans aren't interested in casualized kiddishit like Mario and Zelda).

So when MHW was revealed, they were pretty excited because it's a better alternative to buying a weakass handheld with no game just to play an upscaled 240p G-Rank rehash of the much maligned spin-off. Of course, this doesn't sit well with Nintendo fans who believe MH has already become one of their exclusive franchise and shouldn't be released on other platforms.

>>386789026

So FUgrandpas that absolutely refuse to admit their game is busted

>>386765756
>slightly

I can't raise one eyebrow that high anon

>>386789026
you forgot the part where you can't play multiplayer locally anymore. (unless you play on PC)

where you are now going to be forced to play any kind of online multiplayer (unless you can LAN on the Xbone, PS4)

and finally that Capcom isn't releasing it on Switch (which is what caused the original uproar) and even if XX is coming to Switch, Capcom saying it won't localize that one.

if at least World or XX came out on Switch in America, there would be way less shitposting.

>>386789442

>>386789442
Fucking this.

This is the second time Capcom has jumped ship with Monster Hunter, and all the Sony fanboys just lap it up this time. It's inevitable that they'll do it again further down the track, I can see Capcom making MH Nintendo exclusive again when they're back in the lead in hardware sales. And then there will be even more bitching and saltiness. Capcom console exclusivity fuckery has poisoned the MH fanbase, and it's really quite disappointing to see.

>>386790090
But MHW isn't exclusive.

>>386790169
>Xbone being relevant ever

>>386790292

>>386790169
It might as well be the way Sonybros go on about it. Besides, it's PS4 exclusive in Japan, where most of the player base will be.

>>386790169
My point still stands. Sure MH World is coming to 3 platforms, but Capcom are deluded when it comes to expectations for their games. They probably expect World to sell 5 million, and will most likely move on to Switch exclusive Japan only MH when it doesn't.

So cant the children complaining about world just not buy it? Then when it comes out they will be all "Mario zelda splatoons butthurt butthurt"

I'm just happy that I'll get to play HD MH on my PC and even willing to buy a PS4 if the community is more active there.

Console war shitposting doesn't make your game look any better, Capcon employee.

>>386793260
And THIS is exactly my point. You just assume I'm a Nintendo fanboy, even though I'm looking forward to both XX and World. True MH fans wouldn't need to resort to console war faggotry, they would just discuss Monster Hunter.

Do I need to make a whole new account or can I just change my region? Will it fuck anything up?

>>386796715
>>rolling out of potions
QoL change. Remember when they added roll canceling for tons of moves? You can still use the potions same as before
>>anime moves built into every moveset
And Gen doesn't have those?
>>massive glowing waypoint marker flies
Made for casuals, yes. But they don't hinder traditional gameplay
>>flashy scripted monster attacks for massive damage where they straight up ignore you
Because previous Gens never had that
>>the map looks like a fucking ant farm now
Even if they were just 1 second long, the loading screens are gone. Nothing takes you out of immersion now

>>386796948

You can change regions as long as you don't have any funds on your account. This can be troublesome because generally only prepaid eShop cards will work in other regions, and you'll often have a few cents or yen left after purchases. Just make a new account for other regions. It's far easier to manage, and you can still play the games on your main account.

>>386796715
I bet you'd complain about them giving GS a charge attack or the anime longsword being added to the game if mh2 was the next game to be released instead of world

>>386797196
I agree on all points, but the scripted monster attacks, i.e. the one where Rathalos manhandles the other monster, are new to World, and imo can be quite gamebreaking if not handled correctly. Everything else about the game is looking great so far and I'm eagerly waiting to play it, but if it turns into one big escort mission, leading the monster from one damage source to the next, it's not going to be fun at all.

>>386801023
Portable 3rd

>>386760536
World is esentially a mainline. It may not have the 5 but its the biggest evolution of the series since Dos.

Plus, lets not pretend MH hasn't been stagnating ever since Tri. I did like 4U but the gameplay changes were poorly implemented and had some pretty serious balance issues.

Still fun, and albeit 4rth gen monsters were cool, it was very in line with tri, Portable and 3U.

But look at World's level and monster design, they still ought to introduce at least two new kinds of monster, but the brute wyvern looks gorgeous and I love how they all seem to have their own behaviour.

Axe mode is 100% fucking useless in every game besides XX and Frontier. Don't even pretend it was able to outdamage the 1.2 mod from Power Phial, even fucking Tri had this problem solved when the only good craftable axe was the Ceadeus one

>>>anime moves built into every moveset

It doesn't actually. With gens you have to equip the arts yourself and if you change weapons you have to re equip them. In other words they're optional.

I already played Gen and with World coming out I don't think I'd bother with it.

>>386787468
>>386791134
I don't think either of you have actually compared the Switch CPU to the 3DS's. It's way more than twice as strong.

I suspect it's due to crossplay reasons, or because some animations or physics are tied to framerate.
