I'm so getting this. The clutch claws is a very good addition game play to this game. Monster Hunter keeps on improving it's game play. Iceborne looks good. |
| I'm super excited for Iceborne but I play on PC so the wait is gonna be longer. :( However, it looks like the PS4 open beta for non PS plus users is next week so I'll definitely try it out then. The Longsword's Iai Spirit Slash has me crazy excited for more anime MHW moments. XD |
 |
| I was planning to skip this one out for a while since I'm so burned out on the game last year, but looks like the expansion added way more things that I initially thought. Particularly hyped for the return of good ol' Tigrex. Time to revive my Whatsapp hunting group and call my high school buddies back for more all-nighters :^) |
 |
| I just hope they remove the limits on how many custom bullets you can carry, that change was complete B.S. Also, bring black traditional Blood Arts and the Blast Gun please. |
 |
| I still play this game on and off. Been experimenting with different builds. The expansion trailers got me hyped again recently especially with the amount of content they've shown. |
 |
| Might skip this, ever since they introduced Behemoth, my ego was shot to dust. |

I've heard good things about it though, but if it's online-only then I just don't have the dosh for it. Yes you can solo the game offline all the way to end credits and most probably this Iceborne too. It's not like For Honor where you need PS Plus to play it. |

This, but don't forget that the monster's health is increased when there are people playing in a group. |

| I heard that MHW is the "casual" version of MH. Is that true? I tried the "non casual" versions and all I could think of is, why exactly am I forced into animations without being able to cancel? Why is everything so slow? |

I can pretty much beat anything in that game aside from Behemoth, he is my Kryptonite. Fuck the guy who decided that his AOE is the entire map. |

I tried the "non casual" versions and all I could think of is, why exactly am I forced into animations without being able to cancel? Why is everything so slow? It's definitely easier than past MH games, but mainly because there are so many new helpful gameplay mechanics (as opposed to Capcom nerfing the difficulty). For example, tracking monsters is way simpler now, and the revamped online system allows you to request help from other players anytime you're in a pinch. The lack of ability to cancel attacks and slow animations have always been a series staple. The combat pacing is much slower and controlled than that of most other Japanese ARPGs, such as God Eater. |

It's generally recommended to have at least 450 and ideally over 500 defense to avoid losing most of your HP from a single attack. If you're on PC and still interested in playing, I wouldn't mind helping you out. |

No single monster hunter game is bad. If it's too slow for you then you might have a shorter than normal attention span. Then I'd suggest something like Dark Souls. Coming from Monster Hunter though Dark souls 3 was very easy. MHW in particular changed all the "bad" mechanics the previous game had, so it is in no way hard because of mechanics. Actually, it's easy as fuk mainly because they simplified lots of stuff ( armor combos ) and there's no G-rank and guild quests. I heard the Iceborne expansion will add Master rank though which is similar to G-rank. |

Your character's hits are heavy thus you need to know the monster well enough to search for openings. It's not slow, it's unforgiving. Especially in LVL 140 guild quests with monsters one-two shotting you with top-tier armor. And tbh I'm not a fan of slow weapons too. I'm ( was, I haven't bought MHW yet ) a Dual Blades main, they are the quickest weapons in the game and you can cancel most attacks, they felt even better than DS3 dual blades. Perhaps you didn't try the game enough. |

| Kind of a bummer that I'll have to wait a bit for the PC version. But I like playing the game at a good frame rate, so... |
 |
| I've put almost 400 hours into the PS4 version and probably the best fun I've had since this is my first MH game. |
 |
| How Capcom Made Velkhana's Sounds And Iceborne's Music |
| I'm quite hyped for the expansion, especially since some monsters like the Glavenus and the Brachydios are coming back I still hope for some of my favs to return too, like the Zinogre, the Gore Magala or, for the troll, the Rajang and the Plesioth However the expansion is still a little too expansive |
| Monster Hunter World now sold at 13 million. https://techraptor.net/content/monster-hunter-world-celebrates-13-million-sales-with-big-bonus-for-players What a success. |
| I play on PC so my wait will be longer, but I actually stopped playing because I got bored of the same environments over and over again. I'm glad to see they're finally addressing this, and it looks like it's going to be cool and different from the others. |
 |
| Still sad they didn't remake the Misty Peaks in HD, that would have been gorgeous |

It's not confirmed at the moment, people are speculating a Water element Elder Dragon, but I doubt it, Ruiner Nergigante is however, a variant that's been confirmed through PSN trophies list. |

| I’m really excited for this. “World” was a really good game, I played it for a lot of time and this seems to be bigger than the base game, so I’m waiting for it. |
 |
| Yian Garuga ? Wasn't my number 1 hope, but it's gonna be fun anyways Still really hope for Magala, Rajang and Zinogre however |
HectorBlaze said: I’m really excited for this. “World” was a really good game, I played it for a lot of time and this seems to be bigger than the base game, so I’m waiting for it. Yup, Iceborne's locale, Hoarfrost Reach, is the largest locale in the game. More area's of the map will open up as you progress through the DLC's story. Not sure if it's true, but I recall some people mentioning not all the planned monster's have been revealed. |

| For everyone who was hoping for Zinogre, they launched a new trailer today: |
| I would be more excited for zinogre but I was already spoiled when someone on reddit spoiled one of zinogres longsword weapons without tagging spoiler. |
| "It's not like I wanted a signature or anything...BAKA!" - A MAL user. |
| This dlc just keeps getting better and better. |
| Don't know how to post direct links or whatever, but PS posted the male armor set and a weapon on Twitter: https://twitter.com/PlayStation/status/1167090253871681536 |

Rajang is here. Zinogre,Tigrex,Brachydios, Nargacuga, Glavenus and now Rajang. What a strong line up. |
