No I suggest you go back and read the replies to yourself as I said the similarities are vague not that the are non at all so my stance stands it is in fact trying to shift things to suit your argument with this straw man argument in which you're trying to pass of vague similarities as equalling appeal which is flat out doesn't.
Apples to oranges describes your whole stance which is the irony here as borrowing a concept is what GTA did with Zelda they just used a different application with it ironically you accuse me of denying something yet here you are side stepping a known fact to suit your own argument, this also hits the first point as well because different applications leads to different appeals and hunting monsters in HZD is nothing like it is in MH you've even flat out admitted this. Vague similarities to try and push an argument in why a game can appeal to an unrelated crowd is flimsy at best.
Again you're trying to read between lines here as I'm highlighting the amount of grinding required which is applied to a gameplay style that is slower and far more taxing, the level of grinding is key because if someone in BB can grind for a few hours and get what they need it doesn't mean they'll spend week grinding to complete an armour set in MH so they can finally do a mission after which they need to do the same again they're two completely different ball parks.
Except PS3 got MH3rd HD which sold around 350k and that platform had online structure fact is it's more you over estimating its chances I'm going from the series record in the west you're going by your own optimism, it's like Dragon Quest another series that is quite grind heavy funny enough both series will only ever do okay in the west because their gameplay approach has only niche appeal in the west.
