They posted a vid showing the character creator

is very detailed, front hair is separate from back hair, you can have two hair colors, hairstyles have now several variations and you can put yourself knife hears which means you can, techinically, play as a Wyreian.

>>723802174 (OP)
I don't like the change in art style for stories 3.
1 was cute. 2 was perfect.

>>723802329
Dude, is the same artstyle from MHS2! you are confused because the MC is now a fully grown adult instead of a teenager like in MHS2.

>>723802398
It's not. Shut the fuck up! It undoubtedly goes for a more realistic approach.

>>723802174 (OP)
If seems ther eis just one voice option this time...which makes sense, the whole game is voiced and they actually made the VA call the MC "male" and "female" respectively.

>>723802174 (OP)
Sovl -> Soul -> Soulless

where gato

>>723803000
it has been 200 years since MHS2, anon...

We all know HE will be back midgame by some bs made up story

>>723803298
The director specifically said HE is dead, he said not even a magical palico can live 200 years.

>>723802174 (OP)
Both this game and the new digimon knock out Pokemon Z-A in every sense and yet Pokemon will always sell millions of millions, it's not fair.

>>723802174 (OP)
>you can have two hair colors
I will now play your game
love girls with two tone hair

sex with the princess

>>723802174 (OP)
>not option to make my character smoll
Dammit, I know not even mainline has that but it would be cool.

Things I hope for.
They stop calling the Monsters, Monsties.
They make things more lore accurate. Like, you don't hatch a Black Diablos. You get one some one way.
So far it looks more "mature" than the other two, they should move away from the rock paper scissors combat system and go more the rout of a traditional JRPG.

>>723804423
All your hopes were already crushed from the reveal trailer alone.

>>723804261
Who want the princess when you have smoll tomboy?

>>723804496
I know, but never the less I hope they realize the only way Stories is every REALLY gonna take off while it is so simple...and kiddy. I get that Stories as a franchise IS for kids but they obviously are pivoting to a more "mature" demo with 3. It is time to drop the hold over stuff from the 3DS game.

>>723804856
>I get that Stories as a franchise IS for kids
That was the plan for MHS1 but when actual kids ignored it and the normal MH fans (and pokem on fans) took interest instead they change to focus on them. I mean, have you seen the girls from the now ded gacha MHS game? they are lewd as fuck.

>>723804761
cute boy

>>723802174 (OP)
I really enjoy the tension and mutual distrust between hunters and riders in these games. If these games are moving in a direction with more mature themes then I would like to see them explore the political aspects of that relationship.

>>723804761
cute uncle

>>723804412
I liked playing as a younger character in the earlier MHS entries. gave kind of an underdog feel in addition to being a rider, not a hunter. now its just going to be kinda cringe being a fully grown weakling getting mogged by hunters

>>723805357
>I really enjoy the tension and mutual distrust between hunters and riders
Wat? in the first game the Hunters calmed down after a quick explanation and Reverto was chill all the time. In the second game only Kyle distrust you but he calmed very fast and in MHS3 it has been 200 years and riders have become "common as fuck" to the point you have whole kingdoms of them with ARMIES of them.

>>723802174 (OP)

Good, MC is royalty, they need a crown.

hey wait, I don't play as a retarded looking 11 year old anymore in these games?
I might check it out now

>>723809157
still has dumb gay boring rock paper scissors combat though

>>723809157
Full size monsters too

>>723809456
I bought the second one when it was on sale but washed out because it felt like it was for a younger audience. If it's going for more of a main game tone and feel, I'll definitely take a look

>>723809456
I hope Espinas is in MHS3.

>>723802174 (OP)
>mfw when even MH stories went through the growing process and the kids who played the first game and watched the anime became teens during Stories 2 and are young adults/late teens now

I'm ancient

>>723802559
You sound like a pedo

>>723802174 (OP)
I am surprise TPC is not suing the hell outta this.

>>723810753
why would they sue a company that can actually defend itself

>>723808667
Ruined. Shan't be buying

>>723810753
Why would they? People have this weird idea that they go after other developers for gameplay reasons, when in reality it has more to do with visual design. The bigger indie pokemon knockoffs are on Switch, I think some of them are even on sale right now, and Nintendo has worked with companies that directly ripped it off. The thing that fucked Palworld was the deliberate choice to ape Sugimori's art style for the pals. And to give some of them guns.

>>723811363
They are suing palworld for patents, not copyright. Why? Because they CAN'T sue for copyright so they are doing patent trolling.

>>723811363
Capcom could straight up show a pikachu riding on a Rathalos without permission and Nintendo would sit the fuck down and keep their mouths shut because they'll only punch down. They didn't do shit when the DHS posted the entire unedited pokemon anime opening

>>723802174 (OP)
Wait, what is this?

>>723813201
What is this? source?

>>723802174 (OP)
I don't like how Monster Hunter plays. Only ever played the first 1 on ps2. Is stories any different?

>>723802174 (OP)
is there a vitiligo slider

>>723813682
Stories plays nothing like mainline MH games. It's a pokemon-style jrpg.

>>723802174 (OP)
I'm retarded but I just need to confirm for the ease of my mind. Stories series is made by its own MH dev group right? Or does it have any noteworthy people from the main group influencing it?

>>723811605
Yes, and the only reason the FBI went after Al Capone was unpaid taxes. There's the reason, then there's the method.

>>723814261
As far as I know its made by a team at Marvelous directed by Lost Planet's director, with oversight by Kaname as usual because he created Monster Hunter's setting/world.

>>723814364
>and the only reason the FBI went after Al Capone was unpaid taxes
Analogy worthy of braindead Nintendo cultist

>>723814024
No

>>723814545
Wait, if the MH creator is still around Capcom, why he let Wilds go the way it did?

>>723814557
Al Capone went to jail for tax evasion. Not bootlegging, not illegal gambling, not accessory to murder, tax evasion. The actual shit didn't hold water in court for one reason or another, so they got him on what they could conclusively find. Nintendo couldn't go after Pocketpair for their actual reasons, so they went the patent route. It's not a particularly deep or complicated metaphor, you just have a deranged hateboner that makes you fucking stupid.

>>723804761
For a moment there i though he was wearing a thong

>>723815456
He no longer directs the games, and mostly is in control of the broad strokes lore/world stuff.

>>723815456
He only directed the mainline games and the last game he directed was 4u.

>>723815687
How can this guy be so happy when a single game (Wilds) destroyed all the good will his series had?

>>723814545
Thanks that's what I just want to confirm. Stories series is literally the last line of MH games to retain some form of original Monster Hunter soul for me and I really don't need it to become pozzed like Wilds.

>>723802174 (OP)
Why is this aids spinoff tied to MH

>>723816245
Because it's unquestionably Capcom's most valuable franchise, and those get spinoffs. What a dumb question.

>>723816245
We're not talking about Wilds.

>>723802329
1 = kids
2 = teens
3 = young adults
Shame that they desaturated colors like it's yet another shitty BOTW clone. I want vivid colors in my games.

>>723816245
Is a long story, it all started when Yokai Watch managed to do the unthinkable: reach pokemon levels of popularity and Capcom got completely drunk thinking they could also get a "super popular kids franchise" so they inmmediately made a spin of MH "for kids" (they literally called it that in the marketing) with a yokai watch rip off palico as its mascot and released it on the 3ds, they also made an anime for it like in the old times and expected loads of money...but the literal kids didn't give a fuck about it, instead the usual MH fans and older Pokemon fans got interested. MHS1 was a commercial failure but Capcom saw potential in the "unexpected" fanbase it got and in a extremely OoC moment for them actually tried again with a focus in a more Xenoblade/BoTW like style, MHS2 succeeded in Capcom's "actually not insane" sales expectations and now they are making a third game.

>>723817037
sounds like japanese business autism alright

>>723817246
yeah the correct koi fish splashed it's tail in the pond during the business meeting so they got permission to take a risk

>>723817246
That kind of stuff happens all the time, it's just rare that entertainment companies are willing to pivot to the audience they have, rather than quitting when they don't get the audience they want.

>>723817705
Sadly I am sure this only happened because it was MH, if it was a new IP or a niche one, Capcom would have dumped it. Hell, there was some new IP Capcom made for 3ds, it was anime as fuck and it got two games but it didn't sell well and Capcom euthanized it. Someone remembers this IP? It was on the 3DS and was never localized.

>>723817947
Gaist Crusher?

>>723818294
Yeah, that's is the one, thanks anon.

>>723802174 (OP)
I don't like the character they went for the example, she looks weird.

>>723818393
Treasure is a great, but cursed, developer, and the thing about stuff like Gaist Crusher is that if kids don't get on board with the multimedia franchise, it will never do what they meant for it to do. In those cases, it's better to cut your losses and try something else. You can have something like Yu-Gi-Oh, a simple manga that becomes a juggernaut by circumstance, but you'll never see "the next big craze" settle into something simpler.

>>723802174 (OP)
No Navirou no buy.

>>723819368
I find funny how they had to make a big time skip to have an "acceptable excuse" to write him off.

>>723819665
Probably accounting for whatever extra longevity he might have from his gene experimentation I guess.

>>723819907
The director actually noted that.

>>723819665
Feels a bit like throwing out the baby with the bathwater to lose everyone else from MHS1/2 also except Ena who will be an unrecognizable menopausal granny

>>723810753
Why would they, lmao. mihoyofucks and palfucks should fuck off.

>>723805084
>have you seen the girls from the now ded gacha MHS game? they are lewd as fuck
Nta, but may I ask for some proof for that claim?

>>723816994
>I want vivid colors in my games.
Then go replay games from GBA to 3DS era which had to be oversaturated or else you wouldn't see shit under sunlight.

>>723821616
Example 1.

>>723821947
Wew

Need more proofs

>>723816994
this is undersaturated to you?
check your screen

>>723815361
Not buying

>>723822303
Another one.

>>723816106
>How can this guy be so happy when a single game (Wilds) destroyed all the good will his series had?
Takes one good expansion and we'll all be back to sucking Capcom's dick

>>723816245
Do you want it to be a Resident Evil spinoff?

>>723822452
Holy shit this looks great?!

>>723822627
Uh, I thought I had more stuff saved in my comp but turns out I didn't. Give me a moment to find more stuff, specially of the "chocolate brocon zinogree girl".

Post Rey Dau's super attack webm.

There is but it's further back I guess.

>>723823473

>>723823634
No, it's a super.

>>723822452
>>723822460
>>723823546
>>723823647
I wish Capcom would make a game with this artstyle and classic Monhun gameplay.

>>723804761
My heart belongs to Thea.

>>723823634
Super Attacks can'tmiss but it can do scratch damage if the enemy is too overleveled.

>>723823807
I don't like how th default male MC looks like the MC from delicious dungeon, hell, that guy literally liked monsters more than humans and ended up becoming a king so the MHS3 male MC feels so much like him that's not funny.

>>723824220
I hope we can give the party members other armors just as we can give them other weapons.

>>723823647
>>723823728
>>723823807
>>723824108
Looks like a 10/10 game for me so far. I'm speechless

>>723821947
>>723822627
Cute.

The only kind of strange thing about the art style to me is how if you notice, in some cases its very obvious some background elements look more realistic than the characters in style.

>>723824220
GOD that tomboy is so SMALL

>>723824832
You can say that again.

>>723824532
that's good game design

>>723824532
Now that you've mentioned it I kinda see it, but it doesn't really look too jarring or distracting to me.

>>723802174 (OP)
What are the chances the switch version is an actual game and not a key card? It would be such a shame if it is a disgusting key card.

>>723824937
>main monster is Rathalos again
I get it, it's one of the Monhun mascots, but surely they could've given us a different monster to main.

>>723804761
Where's my fanart of Thea?? What's wrong with the artists? They don't like her?

>>723824532
>POOGIE IS IN

>>723823035
Western photorealism is out of fashion, colorful anime is in.

>>723825157
most popular monster please understand

>>723825072
0%

>>723825613
Why couldn't Wilds look as colorful as this again?

I like that they finally updated velocidrome's model and animations, wheras even in 2 some monsters were actually still running the old gen 2/3/4 models and animations.

>>723825798
Because "the west loves realism!"

>>723825798
It is colorful...but only in the forest and desert, and only during the plenty.

>>723802559
the only more realistic thing about it is that monsters that you own are not chibis nows

>>723823267
Yes
>Floppy disc
yes
>CD-ROM
yes

my favorite one was this bad boy, but even then I was like 30 years too late for its prime. Not that it fucking matters because they're still going strong unlike like 4 fucking generations of disc storages.

>>723825905
>new mh game is about exploring and befriending monsters
>new pokemon game has only one city and no exploring
I never thought I would live to witness this.

>>723825798
Mainline always went for realism. It was pretty striking how at the time the World monsters instantly looked way better with vivid colors and it seems it'll be the same with the Wilds monsters in this style.

>>723826171
Nta, but I like the chibi style for both characters and monsters.

>>723826086
The volcano also has a few colorful zones but you barely fight in them
only the ice zone and wyveria look like ass most of the time

>>723802398
playing really short characters is a major draw of these games for me. Small girl plus sword that is 4 times her size is peak aesthetic, and giga-rare.

>>723804261
She definitely wants it.
>>723824532

>>723825351
I understand. But both MHST1 and MHST2 had Rathalos as the main monster.
So surely they could've given a chance to a different monster. Like Zinogre or Nargacuga which are close to Rathalos in popularity.

>>723826653
>Small girl plus sword that is 4 times her size is peak aesthetic
THIS

>>723826920
Yeah, they also easily could have milked the lagi return, or even had it as Arkveld to spit on Nata lol.

>>723827045
Lagi in MHS3 is a given (the question is if they will put abyssal lagi as the MHS2 data showed).

>>723826437
They were good, not gonna lie, but I wonder if it will be cool with the approach they took now, at least it won't get stale as a series

>>723827316
Ngl those encounters are scary.

>>723827045
>Arkveld shows up with Nata
>At the same time Nata disappears from wilds g-rank story

>>723802174 (OP)
I would gladly play a mainline MH in this style. Just polish up the environments a bit more. Nice aesthetic and I'd bet it would run even on toasters.

>>723827316
FUCK

>>723827649
I don't think the fanbase will react well, remember the wind waker apocalipsis? Nintendo was literally forced to make Twlight Princess because of it and it became the best selling Zelda game EVER until BoTW.

>>723827576
Forced soul

>>723823473
You think Ryozo gets mad when he looks at this? I mean, other people managed to make his monster look cool and threatening in a spinoff game.

>>723827883
Can't wait to make my brown chocofu

>>723827947
Nah, he's the producer of the entire ip.

>>723827883
Normally i would make a himecut girl but this time I wanna make Ashley, yes, TCoA&L Ashley, the insane brocon bitch.

>>723827883
So the princess won't become a prince if you choose a fmc? I guess romance is out.

>>723802174 (OP)
This was pure sexo, why did they change it?

>>723828516
They went for a more Xenoblade/BoTW/ToTK asthetic after MHS1.

>>723802174 (OP)
Wow you can literally see the soul being sucked out of the series in real time.

>>723802174 (OP)
This spinoff is fucking stupid, monsters are meant to be hunted, killed, and their skin and bones turned into trophies to wear.

>>723829423
I remember this, is from the extras menu in the MHS1 remaster, right?

>>723829635
You still do that and this time you make the monster kill their own kin too.

>>723829635
Riders canonically are just an offshoot culture from a Hunter who became the first Rider. Also your headcanon directly contradicts the way Hunters actually are.

>>723823473

>>723809671
>Riding Espinas
:DDDDDDD

The only thing left to for MHS to completely fuck pokemon is add the one thing they will never add: romance system.

>>723830378
I hope the other cabra is rideable too.

What the fuck these webms actually look good. Are the previous games any good?

>>723831284
Biggest win imo is if they finally reveal you can ride agnaktor and the crabs.

>>723831364
I enjoyed them, but a warning is that they are classically incremental games as far as improvement and refinement goes, as in you will probably have a worse time going backwards if you do so.

>>723803926
This is what Stories 2 looked like on Switch 1

>>723832123
Don't show this to Pokemon Z-A players.

>>723822898
Here is the most lewd girl from Riders, she is also a massive BROCON.

>>723832123
It's weird how on Switch 2, Rise still runs locked at 30 while Stories 2 runs at up to 60.

>>723802174 (OP)
They should make a phone games board to filter out all these non videogame threads

>>723834248
This isn't a phone game.

>>723834248
Is this bait?

>>723804761
Because I like the princess. What kind of retarded question is that?

God i wish we got a new Breath of Fire instead of his shit

>>723835908
Capcom is ashame of dragon quarter (and that stupid mobile game nobody remembers) that they don't want to ever touch BoF ever again.

>>723835908
>instead of
Can't a world exist with both

>>723835908
The main writer since 3 is still at capcom, though his output has been questionable. His latest actual games he worked on were both Dragon's Dogmas.

>>723836690
BoF4 genuinely has one of the best stories in JRPGs but Capcom probably doesn't have it in them to allow another game about nuclear weapons, genocide, human experiments and allies stabbing each other in the back.

>>723837007
Don't forget that the nuke was LITERALLY a little girl tortured to insanity and the outright decapitation...wait, was that last one manga only?

>>723837116
It's just censored in some releases I think.

>>723835908
You didn't buy it and now is ded.

>>723837416
To be fair this was brutally different, Capcom should have presented it as a spin off.

>>723827316
well you're on a midget black diablos what did you expect?

>>723838223
Yes, a lot of DQ fans can't understand that going from 1 - 4, to that was even more a departure than going from DMC4 to Tameem's game.

>>723837416
There was no real need to position it as a Breath of Fire game. It's like a turn and party based vagrant story.

>>723830293
I just noticed that there are a lot of normal cattle and wild animals in monster hunter. everyone is some fantasy gleerpo or a lizard, but then there's poogie as a literal pig.

Is the game still using rock paper scissors combat?
I played a little of the first game but it felt like it was made for toddlers.
The third one seems a little more mature, but if it's still just dinosaur roshambo I'm not interested.

>>723802174 (OP)
Remove the anti soul gas and make this the artstyle for MH switch 2 and we good.

Can you fuck the princess though?

Its literally a straight upgrade

>>723802329
fuck chibi and fuck tiny monsters

>>723822452
Mainline games with this color setting when???

>>723838902
It's still rps, with 2 and three they have just been adding layers to it, like needing to pay more attention to element and damage type (crush pierce slash), and a new mechanic in 3.

>>723839636
There's an stamina bar too.

>>723802174 (OP)
When will feminine armor be back on the menu (boys)? Losing my patience with the nips here.

>>723840056
Just the fact the default armor for the female MC is clearly feminine should give you hope.

>>723827883
nice
I dont remember the prequels having a CC

>>723840056
This game might have it, but its hard to say. The previous Stories games didn't really have the mix and match concerns the main games have and were full sets.

>>723840419
"CC"?

>>723840548
character creator

>>723840578
They did have CC...

Is 2 worth playing? I don't care for the sex cat.

>>723840689
Yeah, it's overall an upgrade over 1, as 3 looks to be a big upgrade over 2. 1 is very rough due to being the first go.

>>723840419
Both mhs1 and mhs2 had cc.

>>723840689
One word: Kayna.

>>723841023
She only stays with you during the first area.

>>723840627
>>723840967
i guess I'm an idiot. i really dont remember it at all. Maybe I should go back and play them

>>723842003
You can get her back in the postgame.

>>723825905
And yet that Kut Ku on the bottom left at the very start looks like the 4th gen model

>>723842503
So?

>>723842003
She can be your partner later.

>>723842410
>>723843708
Yeah, I know but is postgame stuff, party members should stick until the en of the main story.

>>723842503
The version they've shown ingame is the Wilds model.

Hummina hummina.

>>723837416

Fun fact about the first girl: she is a "phantom thief" that goes around causing shit with her Nargacuna and there is this fuckboy policeman guy with a lago trying to catch her. In the day the lagi guy is always trying to woo a cute village girl, a girl with light purple hair and yellow eyes...

Oh...is a in battle ability, I thought your party members could cook stuff for you outside battle. But....THE GRILL IS BACK! In MHS2 you had the grill in the key items menu from the very beginning but could never use it, you bought the meat already cooked.

so what do you do in this one? grind monsters just like the mainline games but turn based or is there something more to it?

>>723846617
It's LITERALLY Pokemon Monster Hunter

>>723846939
ok so you don't grind too much or rather that's not the focus and the focus is more on adventure and discovery?

>>723803000
Removed, please enjoy whatever minority they decide to have lecturing you.

>>723846996
Is extremely plot based, which is the point as is literally called MH STORIES.

>>723802174 (OP)
>MH Stories is now a better series than mainline MH
Didn't expect it but don't hate it

I wish I could still refund Wilds and spend it on this instead

>>723846996
Grinding is in endgame mainly, and based on getting monster eggs to potentially sac monsters to give it to one of your preferred ones. Obviously, there is still weapon and armor crafting though.

I'm hyped!

What MHS can do kore to give the middle finger to mainline at this point?

>>723849330
Being fun.

>>723802174 (OP)
Why can't all Crapcom games look like this? Instead we got shitty realistic RE Engine graphics.

>>723850112
Because, until Wilds, every single game with "hyper realism" style sold beyond their wildest dreams and the normies are too blame for that.

>>723802174 (OP)
so are these games worth playing? i like cutesy art style games, usually the gameplay is fun and deep, lot of options and stuff.

>>723849330
Having a real fanbase.

god, i hope fulgur isn't behind the postgame when you already have a million better thunder monsters at that point again

>>723850650
Revenge for them ruining DD2.

>>723851056
There's some hope as in the current footage of what may be the second or third area, they already have jho and steve there as random fightable monsters which were late/post game before. If we can still get them to retreat it could be possible.

>>723830050
I still find it hilarious they make the baby models for this 10 second animation and literally nothing else

>>723851406
Het the twin Rathalos were literally mini Rathalos when they were born.

>>723802329
Proportions are mostly the same throughout the series. They look older because they got wider

>>723851406
They're dedicated, I appreciate that.

Think I tried the demo for MHS2 but it looked too childish for me. This new game looks pretty good. Do you fight monsters or is this a monster collector?

>>723851608
both

>>723851647
Cool. Is it just linear story or full on JRPG? Any cool postgame superbosses?

TOTAL RIDER DEATH

>>723802174 (OP)
which one is supposed to be the girl in the middle one?

>>723802174 (OP)
If they don't let me make a water gravios they can fuck off.

>>723851701
the main story is pretty linear but there's some big areas to roam around and do sidequests in on the way

>>723851825

Be my guest.

It's to save processing power and to create contrast; to lead your eyes to the characters.

>OOOUUUUUUGGHHHHHH

>>723802174 (OP)
Why is it MH stories threads are always so comfy while MH wilds are a mess?

>>723852486
Actually MHS Threads are usually dead, this one being active is a miracle.

>>723852574
Nah, the others have reached bump limit.

>>723852712
The one I did yesterday died with zero posts, this one survived because i got actual new info this time (the CC showcase).

>>723851825
For me it's fire zamtrios.
But, who am i kidding?
There won't be zamtrios in the game, capcom hate zamtrios.
>>723852486
Simple, because there's no ugly race caricature on it.

>>723852973
wasn't he in 2

>>723853037
And in 1.

>>723852863
Man, I didn't see it, had I seen it, I would've bumped it, I love Stories.

>>723852973
Zamtrios was in MHS1.

I have no interest in this game if they don't increase the difficulty.

>>723852973
>>723853037

I just hope they dont forget to optimize this one, it'd be a great Deck game

>>723853037
>>723853060
>>723853504
Mhs 2 appearance was a fluke!
I'm keeping my expectation low, so i won't be disappointed if capcom didn't put zamtrios in this one.
>>723853360
Just play it casually then.
Or be a kid and make water rathalos.

>>723852305
Based Diablos.

>>723853504
Look at my boy go.

>>723853504
Is this 1 or 2?

>>723854629
It looks like 2.

>>723851056
You don't like Zinogre?

Does anyone have the picture of Navirou getting punched? Playing through 1 and i think seeing the image would heal me

>>723804761
cute girl.

I can't believe they finally accepted that nobody like Navirou.

>>723824220
>>723824108
Is this even on horror engine? It looks pretty good.

>>723856797
According to wikipedia, it is indeed on re engine.

>>723802174 (OP)
They really went from soul to soulless huh

>>723857162
Fuck is Crapcom doing with the engine to have this be the only good utilization of it? But I'm not sure if it's RE Engine. Sources aren't that good.

>>723857343
We will know for sure in the credits, as with the previous two there was MT Framework staff listed.

>>723857530
MT Kinowork

>>723857343
The horror is that they're the only ones pushing the limits of the engine.

Its strange to see this sort of thing to me, guy's been at capcom for years and yet the Stories games look nothing like the other stuff he worked on.

>>723858229
Anon...E.X. Troopers.

Would love so much for the next MH game to use the Stories artstyle. That trailer for 3 looked so good.

>>723858229
Lost Planet in the MHS style would be pretty rad.

>>723858413
E.X. TROOPERS

>>723858443
That one too.

>>723858542
I mean that game is already "anime as fuck" like the MHS games. Hell, someone has that webm of the mecha goong full jojo complete with text bubbles with the sound effects?

>>723803926
Yes yes, we're past the performative outrage phase, now people are posting lewds, do that or shut the fuck up about Pokemon already.

>>723859026
NTA but the fact you told a 13 hours old post to "shut up" doesn't help your point.

>>723802174 (OP)
Bizarrely the chibi ones are the most lewd.

>>723822460
Tobi, my beloved. so cute!

Is Khezu in the new game?

>>723860809
So far we saw one trapped in the crystal thing during a cutscene.

>>723811363
>ape Sugimori's art style for the pals
not really

>>723837416
They went too far with the changes, it's like switching from Dragon Quest to Parasite Eve suddenly.
Also this game really needed some variety in pretty much all aspects — locations, enemies, abilities, party members, etc. Running through the same-ish industrial corridors fighting same-ish enemies with the same party using the same moves for the entire game gets old pretty quickly.

>>723860809
I hope so.

>>723853060
>>723853296
This guy carried me hard in MHS1. I didn't expect much from him initially, but as far as I remember there wasn't a huge choice for ice element early on so I've got Zamtrios and somehow kept him for the entire game.

>>723865413
MHS1 lacks of ice and water monsters.

>>723823728
>rideable full size plesi
sex
looking kino so far except for the npc helper again, that shit made stories 2 so easy
now if only they finally made agnaktor rideable I might purchase this day 1

>>723866943
I hate the npc helpers, the game would be better if it was only you and the cat. I wish there was an option to disable them.

>>723867335
It's a jrpg, having party members is a staple of the genre.

>>723867806
It can be like the first game in which you explore the world alone 80% of the game and the npc helpers stick with you the other 20%.

>>723835908
I don’t fuck breath of shit.

>>723867892
It can, but I think it's more fun to have several characters to control in combat.

>>723851825
>>723852037
himeanon?

>>723853504
That's a cool move.

I know wiki says RE Engine but I don't believe that for one second. It's probably still MT Framework.

>>723804761
I'll play the game for she.

please tell me they put odogaron in this

>>723870384
Fingers crossed.

Since they're remaking all the Monstie models from scratch to make them into adult sizes, does that mean there's no guarantee that all the older monsters will be returning?

>>723802174 (OP)
didnt play 1 and 2 because I dont want to play as a toddler.
gonna check out 3

>>723802398
>is the same artstyle from MHS2

>>723868235
Nope, that is a different anon.

World 2 when?

>>723866943
>rideable full size Plesi
>same height as Anjanath
That's nowhere near a full sized Plesioth. Plesioth is unironically 2big for his actual size to be added.

ok time to play MH stories 1 & 2

>>723875296
>World 2 when?

Tell me you're American without telling me you're American.

Is your main Rathalos called Ratha again?

>>723879041
Yes. Also there are two of them now. And second one probably named Ratha as well.

>>723867806
It's not a pure JRPG, it's a creature collector which famously do not feature party members, and you didn't have to mitigate an idiot weighing you down in the first game. Trying to fight a royal monster with your """"helper"""" is a lost cause because you'll spend half the time covering their ass.

>>723880270
Have you not played stories. Because even in the first game you have to be covering for either your monstie almost purposefully choosing to lose H2Hs or your own character being twice as squishy as your monstie

>>723802329
They have Ghibli proportions now.

>>723880636
>in the first game
Yes I did. There's a difference between controlling your own monstie which still leaves you free to do something and wasting your turn diving in front of this motherfucker when he decides he's going to charge his bow and eat an attack head on. Or when a monster has an AOE you can tank by jumping on your monstie, but they can't and suddenly that's 2 hearts gone.

>>723875465
looks pretty accurate to me, might be a bit smaller than average though but still way better than Stories 1 and 2
>>same height as Anjanath
regular plesioth is similar size, you might be thinking of green one which is bigger

>>723880969
>regular plesioth is similar size
Nowhere near, Plesioth is closer in size to Akantor/Ukanlos than anything else. It's completely scuffed.

>>723878665
I am Peruvian.

>>723880878
Wait a fucking second, your pic, that is from MHS3! If Alwin still looks young after 200 years, that means that Ena...

>>723852089
>>723824532
its largely the rocks, and its not to save processing power, its because texture artist are lazy and dont wanna make matching rocks to an artstyle

>>723802174 (OP)
>girl wearing a burka
no thanks.

>>723802174 (OP)
I would like a proper monster hunter game with Stores 3 art style than the garbage we got in wilds

>>723882328
Bait.

Haven’t played Stories 1 or 2 but this look pretty good, do I need to play the other games to enjoy this or if I’m already familiar with mainline MH should I be good to go?

>>723826653
Most based comment so far

>>723824532
I see the game is optimized with "DLSS in mind"

>>723880969
plesioth is fuckhuge

>>723802174 (OP)
Hope this sells beyond expectations.

>>723885843
MHS2 did, Capcom expected 1 million sales in one years, they got that in one month. Last report puts 2 million, you may thing "that is too low for Capcom standards!" And you may right but they were surprisingly happy with just that, they made milestone celebration posts for it, Companies don't do that unless the product did make a profit.

>>723884545
They were designed as entry points, if anything they are a better way to learn about the world than the regular monhun games, but keep in mind they all happen in their own small corner isolated from everything else.

>>723886381
>>723884545
Wait nevermind i misread your question. And no, there is like 200 years of difference between stories 2 and 3, there might be some callbscks but it will be their own story.

I hope they add Frontier monsters besides Espinas.

>>723886676
Aight, thanks dude.

>>723886676
Would Ena be a milf or a granny km 200 years?

>>723884702
Pretty sure that's just from the webm.

>>723890063
how dare you imply the compressed youtube video i converted into a webm has artifacts
i'll have you know i stole their dev build and recorded that webm directly from the source

>>723822452
NINTENDO!

>>723890361
The problem is gamefreak, no nintendo.

>main character is voiced in cutscenes

I'm surprised, usually japanese games abide by the dragon quest rule of mute protagonists.

>>723890429
Well "GAMEFREAK!" doesn't sound right so

>>723802174 (OP)
Bode type or uncucked?

>>723891038
Body type.

>>723822452
Compared to the first game this looks like shit

>>723881917
That checks out. A lot of American-Peruvians I know are overweight

>>723890516
The second game had voice actors too.

>>723891038
>it took 350+ posts to some faggot to bring this up
I posted the japanese version of the showcase specifically to avoid this shit and it lasted a long time but now you ruined it.

>>723890632
In fact Nintendo told GF to get help from Square Enix I think and the faggots told them that no lmao. What a shitshow of company.

But I get your point.

>>723885843
Yes, please. I already want MHS4.

>>723825017
She got an amazing design.

>>723893143
I don't get why Nintendo offered SE and Bamco when they own the best help possible already: Monolith Soft.

>>723816994
Go back to kids then make them like Pokekids.

>>723834148
Japanese "people" are so fucking cringe on god

>>723877491
because it's fat
no woman should ever be triple digits in american units

>>723894259
gamefreak made a shitty copy of the xenoblade combat system for ZA, so i guess they already got the "help" they needed from monolith soft.

But honestly if ZA already looks embarrassing now, the comparison with stories 3 on the switch 2 is just going to be hilarious.
