Oh, okay. You just don't know anything about Monster Hunter. Cool.

 

What makes Monster Hunter good is the gameplay, armor combinations, and atmosphere. All of which are present in this trailer. And by the way:

Yeah I don't know anything about a series I put 1500 + hrs into. Right!

Somehow a game with QTE, regenerating health, no zones, minimal local multiplayer mode, and casualized combat is Monster Hunter though. But it is I who doesn't know what Monster Hunter is about? 

1. What do you think Monster Mounting was? The QTE's dirty cousin.

2. Regenerating health isn't the end of the world, calm your tits.

3. No zones is a good thing, dude. Nothing was more frustrating than waiting to load through multiple zones just because the Rathian keeps running back and forth from 9 to 4.

4. It's a console game, get over it.

5. Right, so heavy utilization of the environment and getting rid of those stupid Weapon Arts is casualized.

Most of the 300+ hrs one spends in a Monster Hunter game is efficiently killing monsters for their materials again and again until you can upgrade equipment, and kill new monsters. That is  monster hunter. 

Here you go again, assuming that none of that is going to be there in spite of evidence to the contrary. The entire video was focused on gathering materials before focusing on combat with a monster. Do you want the video to show the player kill it over and over and over again for material (something an actual MH fan would understand to be a thing anyway), or do you want to see new mechanics? Oh, right, you clearly want the trailer to be focused on the mundane rather than the exciting.

The atmosphere isn't present in the trailer at all. The monsters look like generic UE4 action figures, and have no charm at all. 

Seriously, I'm beginning to think you just don't want to like the game. You're coming up with excuse after excuse, and now you're resorting to picking at it looking like UE4 action figures? By that, do you mean it doesn't look like a jagged monstrosity straight out of a 240p nightmare? The atmosphere is there, just as it has been in Monster Hunter 1 all the way to Monster Hunter X. The only problem is you don't want to like it, which begs the question of why you're here complaining about it in the first place. If you want the same old shitty lobby-based multiplayer so you can get $1200 worth of Switches in the same room coupled with monster models straight from 2005, then you've still got MHXX.

Pokemon Sun/Moon (2) are true Pokemon games much more similar to saphire and ruby than they are to Colloseum. If anything, you posting that picture just tells us how it is only about the graphics for you. 

Yeah, except you didn't argue anything about gameplay. You posted pictures, one of which looks startlingly similar to what Sun/Moon looks like now. In fact, you very specifically only referred to their looks.
