>Not when it's competing with two other weapon for the top spot. If IG was MUCH better than GS and HBG there would be a problem.
So just because 3 out of 14 weapons are equally broken while everything else is meh to bad, that means the game has no balance issues?

Can someone confirm if the english translation of XX is more advanced than the taco one?

>>182255242
Differences in power are only natural and unavoidable. The game is balanced as long as the tiers are relatively evenly filled and no one option towers above the rest. 3/14 being top tier is actually really good.

>>182255360
Not when the top tier is fucking 50% above the mid tier in power and effectiveness.

>>182255117
people aren't here because they're playing!

>GaijinHunter making a video saying MHXX isn't even that good

Not saying he's wrong, but is the most blatant sellout bullshit he's done to try and promote MHW. Does the guy not have any ounce of shame?

Does guard+ affect how much damage you take when blocking something with brave stance? I'd assume so, but it has natural guard up, so I'm not sure it works intuitively.

>>182255314
It's in the language of freedom so that's more advanced by default

>>182255360
>top three weapons finish hunts in less than half the time of the bottom three weapons
>second or third strongest weapon is also the easiest to use
>two of the three weakest weapons are among the hardest to use
>th-there is nothing wrong with the balance, g-goy! those aren't issues, th-they're an inevitable consequence of variety!

>>182255773
The funny thing is that every single one of his criticisms applies to every other MH just as much.

>>182256029
Not all of them, some just apply to X.

>>182256003
>strong weapons are easier to use
>weak weapons are harder to use
wow, real brainteaser that

>>182256110
>G versions don't add much content
>balance sucks
>everyone just hunts a tiny fraction of the roster over and over
Name one MH title where these don't apply

>>182256142
It has nothing to do with power and everything to do with how they are used. Even in games where it is not blatantly overpowered, GS is extremely easy to use, and even in p3rd and 3U GL is clunky as fuck while HH has slow, high-commitment attacks with erratic hitboxes (and the animations are slowed down further in 4U, and a new attack with higher commitment than any other non-recital was added), without delving into the maintenance gimmick on HH and how horseshit it is. HH and GL could be capable of getting the exact same times as optimally played IG and they would still be a lot harder to use, let alone comparing them to GS.

>>182256362
>GS is extremely easy to use
Nice meme

>>182255773
This fucking wifebeater just has no pride or shame

>>182256273
ESL-kun, is that you? I said SOME just apply to X (not XX, but the title before it, which you might call Generations (except "X" is a lot shorter to type)), like the shitty deviant system. Still nothing new in XX, but also not something that "applies to every other MH."

>>182256515
If the deviant system was MHXX's only flaw, it'd be by far the best game in the series. It's a comparatively pretty minor thing.

>>182256454
Sometimes, a meme takes off because it is absolutely, 100%, inarguably and incontrovertibly true. This is one of those times. I'm not saying it's Skyrim-tier easy, but it is easier than every other weapon in Monster Hunter.

>>182256648
It really isn't.

>>182256620
Dude, you've gone past misunderstanding what you're reading to, like, actively obfuscating it. Some niggers have 0 reading comprehension, you have about -5.

>>182256764
I'm just saying that yeah, it's a flaw unique to MHX/XX, but it's also not a big deal compared to the same old problems that have plagued MH since the beginning.

>>182256739
It's definitely the easiest weapon to use.

>inb4 muh positioning and muh timing that literally applies to every weapon in the game

It's got the highest ration of damage to skill. You need to be more skilled with any other weapon to get the same amount of damage GS dishes out because of easy it is to predict and land lvl2/3s.

>>182256739
it is, tho.

although I've also found LBG to be almost as braindead to use, set-building notwithstanding.

>>182257135
I was never saying that anything he mentioned was unique to MHXX. I was corroborating that, yes, everything he mentioned was true of past games, but pointing out (semi-sarcastically) that some of his complaints did not actually apply to EVERY previous game, ONLY THE PREVIOUS GAME CALLED X.

>everyone here shitted on X/XX for months
>suddenly now that MHW is announced, X/XX apparently wasn't that bad

really makes me think

>>182257261
The deviant system was the only one of his complaints that doesn't apply to every MH game though.

>>182256739
Dude, it absolutely is. By a wide margin, even. I say this as someone that has used every weapon extensively. GS is the weapon I have the fewest hunts with throughout the series (still a few hundred), but since I had about 10-20 hunts with it it has been the weapon I switch to when I want to play "easymode" but don't want to go online, because it requires very little effort, attention or sobriety to succeed while using it, even in games other than 4U, where it is weaker. It is simply the easiest weapon in MH.

Maybe try using other weapons sometime for comparison, I dunno.

By the way, to the person last thread asking why they "translated the XX logo to English" for the french Japan Expo if they have no intention of localising, they didn't. The Japanese logo was always in English, ESL is very common in Japan and English is often used in logos and shit, presumably for aesthetics.

>>182259346

This is, and will always be, /mhg/ from now on. In 10 years from now, when MH will finally add quicktime events and lifebars and bring the game closer to finally being a proper sequel to MH1, we'll still be tormented by World shitposting.

>>182263781
>rough awakening
Seriously now, do people do this shit on purpose?

Finally I see why you need like eighty of an item you generally get one of per hunt from atlal-ka to make its armour, it's because of all the enduring talismans you get along the way to make sets with.

>>182264529
Yes, that's what those are for
But it only takes like 5 hunts to make a full set

>>182264987

I haven't touched any MHXX yet, how exactly does transmog work? As in, what are the limitations?

Can G rank be transmogged into only G rank?
Gunner only into gunner or can you use a full gunner set as a blademaster?

Can you do it with event quest armor like the pirate set or something?

>>182272014
You unlock it at the end of G rank. Gunner has to stay gunner and same for BM but you can exchange between ranks. Can't do DLC armor. Can only do a deviant armor after you beat the super deviant quest which requires HR100 and you have to beat each G rank deviant quest.

BM can only be transmogged into other BM armor. The same goes for gunners.
Helmets are the only piece where that doesn't matter since they can all be equipped by either.

Gear rank doesn't matter for transmog

Most of the event DLC is off limits for transmog. Only capcom owned stuff is okay, and even then not all of it gets a pass.

Because villager requests count as urgents to the point where gathering and slaying quests aren't exempt from it. This might not be so bad if deviants didn't add on to this in with the combination of nobody wanting to help with your shit ever online and leaving after theirs is done.

MHW isn't on any handheld right now. That'll break Crapcom's neck. Hence why MHWP will happen.

So they casualized MHW to appeal to americans, but americans are too good for that, so it won't sell, forcing them to make the next game harder and for japs?

>>182276985
Isn't it obvious?
MHW won't even break 4m and given its much bigger budget and the costs of putting it on three platforms at once, that won't make Capcom happy.
