Honestly, this looks more like a sequel to Monster Hunter Online than anything else.

The trailer looked amazing to me, I was a huge MH Tri fan. What is this discussion about it being casualized about? Where do you guys get that the game has dumbed down combat and regenerating health? Impossible to extract that from the trailer...

The person who leaked it all to begin with.

So it's all nerdrage assumptions then. I trust Capcom to make an awesome Monster Hunter game. A bit more streamlined wouldn't hurt at all.

Believe him or not he's got a sound record as far as the recent MH games go so it can't be ruled out either he carry's more weight than any assumption as what he has said has actually come to be, under what he's saying the Switch game (not XX) retains the path MH normally goes while worlds goes its own way, only thing he got wrong so far is that worlds isn't MH5 but we don't know if that was him assuming it was MH5 or if something internal happened at Capcom and the Switch game became MH5 instead because of it continuing the usual series approach.

It's not portable. It won't sell that well in Japan. It will still sell well worldwide and is great for Sony, but I doubt it will outsell MH XX because that is portable.

It should crush the sales of MHXX Switch version if received well by the fanbase, but it won't sell as well as the 3DS version.

I guess we will just have to disagree. MH has always dominated handheld and done ok to bad on home consoles, and the Switch has a massive advantage in this area:

Because it is the second coming of Christ.

Nah good joke but whats really the reason of this love and obsession for this series ?

Well, I simply like the gameplay. It is satisfying to prepare yourself for a hunt, find the beast, fight it for 20 minutes and finally bring it down.

Some people are definitely jumping into conclusions. It's as if they want the game to be bad lol.

A lot of people are not happy this is coming to ps4 and not Switch.

Is it me or some people are itchy about the game not coming to the Switch? No problem, men! We'll get our MH5 for sure! . I'm excited about World though. It has a really different feel to the mainline games, but an open-world MH game? Count me in!

I feel like the titles being MHXX and MHW are because Capcom is checking to see where MH5 should go. 

 

Should it continue with PS2-level graphics and an emphasis are increasingly complex game mechanics no one asked for?

Or should it go home to the consoles it started on to finally put on its big boy graphics and start taking itself seriously?

It can do both but I'm delighted MH has finally entered modern times.

Finally after all the years we finally will have a true Monster Hunter game which won't be hold back by Nintendo's weak consoles.

Trailer looks good!

MH in 4k on the Pro baby!

Add hunting elements to a hunting game,  take the resolution from 240p to 4k, make it proper open world and improve the online.  

 

All sounds dumbed down to me. This will be the new meme!

The character´s running animation is funny.

Nope, when this sells 3 million between three platforms and MH5 sells five million on one platform, Capcom will know where to put MH6. 

 

Monster Hunter is about local multiplayer and doesn't take its aesthetics seriously. The entire tone and aesthetic of the trailer feels much more like a MH clone than a main series title, and it isn't because of the realistic visuals. 

"Three platforms" Yeah... you forgot to mention how 2 of them are pracitcally irrelevant.

If the sales difference is that small, then that should be an argument for bringing mainline games to at least PS consoles, not against it. You do realize that MH5 is a mainline entry and MH World isn't, right? That seems like a much bigger factor to take into account than "availability on PC/X1" which won't constitue 10% of total sales.

MH World's sales will be compared to MHX and XX on 3DS and/or Switch. This comparison will determine where MH5 goes.

yeah, seemed like a main game at first, but if it's different, open-world based, it kind of makes sense to test the waters

also, the majority of MH audience is on handheld, and with Switch it is on a console as well, wouldn't be wise to turn the tide now


didn't play MH4 yet, but judging from HM Tri which is a great game indeed, MH really needs to make the MH World changes on the main thing too, open-world and instant multiplayer, in order to keep up with today's standards



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

Poor Japan they want a Switch edition.
