Why didnt monster hunter stories kill pokemon?
>>58250803Because Tsukino wasn't they main sidekick
because it manages to be worse than pokémon
>>58250803That's a very random thing to ask and makes me think you're just baiting.
>>58250818Yesterdays direct confirmed stories 3 is coming out march 13 2026
Why do people ask stuff like this when the answer is always bad designs, too much story shit, and not fun.
Because the monster designs (in the series in general) aren't 'cute' enough for mass appeal? I actually think MHS is a fun spin-off but it's not really the same thing as Pokémon, so I don't know how it could have 'killed' Pokémon. . . . Was Stories even /trying/ to compete?
>>58250833They thought having better bitches would be enough
>>58250833Unlike a certain /other/ series that was marketed as such (and couldn't even come close to accomplishing said task.)
>>58250803because it's a tedious, repetitive slog. they fucked it up twice, i'm praying they finally manage to make something fun to play with the third one. and that they add light bowgun damn it i'm not a fucking blademaster.
>>58250832>monster hunter>bad designsis this supposed to be a joke or do you literally ONLY play pokémon? MH has the most thoughtfully designed, memorable creatures out of just about any series that exists.
>>58250832Holy shit taste batman!
>>58250803Because any Pokemon competitor is expected to have an instant multimedia franchise, 30 years of undying nostalgia and at least two different cultural phenomena that defines its place in the zeitgeist, and one of them needs to be a worldwide phenomenon.
>>58250806Quality over quantity.She didn't need more screen time, but build a stronger bond to her beloved human partner instead of trying to catch a stinky dragon.
>>58250986Also include: the relentless comparisons between it and Pokémon (because god forbid a monster collecting game be even the slightest bit similar to Pokémon, I guess.)
It felt like it was trying to be a level 5 game more than anything, but the mechanics were just way too simplistic to hold my interest.
Because it had this ugly annoying cat.
>>58250803Rock paper scissors gameplayWhat the fuck were they thinking
>>58251130He's finally been replaced by a normal cat thankfully
>>58250803Would
>>58251085a cat is fine too..
>>58250803I just don't care for Monster Hunter. The franchise is just "meh" to me.
