https://xtrend.nikkei.com/atcl/contents/18/01186/00001/?wovn=enHe claims that since you need the console, game and playstation online sub, it gets too expensiveSo it's totally not the games faultIt's not like the game launched on other platforms or anything, lol>Tsujimoto: That's correct. However, we also found that the "PS5 barrier" is unexpectedly large. The console costs about 80,000 yen in Japanese yen. When you factor in the cost of software and monthly subscriptions, it comes to about 100,000 yen at the time of purchase. This is not an amount that can be easily reached, especially for younger generations. This situation is not limited to Japan, but is similar overseas as well.>Our next challenge is to overcome these obstacles and get Monster Hunter Wilds to as many people as possible. Sales will begin in the future, so we are currently formulating a strategy to take advantage of these opportunities to boost sales throughout the year.>The Nintendo Switch 2 was released in June 2025 at a price of 49,980 yen (tax included), and the response was better than we had expected. While prices vary by country, this reaffirmed the high level of cost-consciousness among ordinary consumers.
>>719621397Everything but their own decisions, huh.
investors: why did your game not sell?developers: it's our faultinvestors: ok>investors abandon in drovesinvestors: why did your game not sell?developers: it's not our faultinvestors: ok>investors don't abandon in droves
>>719621397Does that mean the PS5 sales were bad? However given that they announced it via playstation you cannot tell me that they didn't have some sort of deal going on in the background. Beside a PC that can run this crap half decently costs more.
>>719621397Man, Tsujimoto family is coping so hard
Calling Wilds a flop is too far but yeah it's not as good as World or Rise.
>>719621524cmon anon you know that its rarely a singular issue.it can absolutely involve large mistakes on the developers part as well as a difficult market.even if 70% of the problems are on the "developers" (many of which are the suits making choices and the actual devs are forced to go along with) that is still a significant portion that isn't their fault.
>>719621524The investors already turned on them despite the defelection.
>we did nothing wrong actually, nothing about this is our fault at allwhy are modern devs like this
>>719621397>He claims that since you need the console, game and playstation online sub, it gets too expensiveHe's not entirely wrong, I completely stopped playing online games on Playstation consoles since it became a paid subscription. I didn't play World because of that.And I don't think I'm the only one, I've seen the first year of the Switch where most games had an active online, and nowadays any niche game with online multiplayer is dead within a week.

>>719621586I mean it absolutely did flop by their metrics though10 mil during launch then absolutely no legs after itthey're also quickening the update schedules because of it
>>719621397What does playstation have to do with this game being rated negative on steam?
>Middle East pandering setting nobody gives af about>Looks like shit>Runs like shit>Is the least like MH MH to date
>>719621690idk I'm having a good time playing it but I definitely couldn't run it with my previous config
>>719621397Watch him make the next one on the Switch 2 and then say the exact same shit when it flops because Wilds was shit.At least it will work properly on PC
>>71962169210 million pre ordering fomo retards. Cull the herd
>>719621397Is dropped 5 bucks on a ea membership to play this game worth it?I'm not a man of high taste
Behold, the game that didn't flop.What do you mean "why did literally one million players quit after the first month"? Stop asking questions.
>>719621825No refunds
>>719621824Which one?
>>719621397Is he an idiot??? where are the hot asian girls in this game? Mop and Raja are not what asian gamers want to see
>>719621692Get paid 10m for paying full price with some paying premium deluxe edition vs getting sales a fraction of the price years later over time. Not sure why people see this as a negative. You do know that Capcom constantly puts their monster hunter games into bundles, right? Most of the sales number probably don't even amount to a fraction of those that paid later on steam at a steep discount. They have no reason to be distinct at the amount they get per game or franchise and use numbers to obfuscate it when best they can do it.
>>719621551>>Does that mean the PS5 sales were badI can't imagine they're great, especially now that they raised the prices. It doesn't even feel like this generation has taken off yet.
>>719622048>It doesn't even feel like this generation has taken off yet.Still doesn't have a "wow this is next gen" game, and i don't think we will too kek
>>719621397you can smell the nepotism excuses because hes the boss son, its over for monhunits pretty funny monhun is the IP that carried the dark ages of capcom while RE was flopping before 7 happenedbut now RE might be the one carrying the whole corpo
>>719621692>muh legsGo look at sales for any game that isn’t a massive breakout hit and it’ll look like this, their confusion is why it isn’t hitting World numbers
>>719622096Well no, that's a big part of it. I can't really think of any notable games on the PS5 or Xbox Series that aren't available on previous generations. GTA6 might change that, but considering how long it's taken to come out, it'll probably release on the PS6 at launch as well. I dunno.
>>719621397That slots in nicely with EA claiming non live service single player games don't sell anymore. Total coincidence the game being discussed is shit.
>>719621524lmao, investors don't give a shit why, they just care about whether or not earnings are good.
>>719621397>its not our fault bro! its all snoystation5!its even worse when you realize the producer ryozo tsujimoto is their family, you can already imagine the level of no criticism in their office because of the corpo hierarchy
>>719621586It quite literally is a flop by their own admissionIf anything the fact that 10mil in the first month is considered a failure on their part should clue you in on how fucking unwell the gaming industry is
>>719622140>that isn’t a massive breakout hitShame capcom probably budgeted, marketed, and planned their fiscal year around it being another Worlds style hit. Or its not a shame because crapcom are fucking retards.
>>719622475It’s about deltasales, they told investors line will go up after World’s huge success but line is mostly the same
>>719621586Flop indicates a commercial failure, it has nothing ti do with the game's quality.
>>719621397I still can't tell if left is an edit or not, it feels like it's not
>>719622621and quality has nothing to do with monster hunter wildsthat game is pure slopwhen you copy another product you're just admitting to being a derivative and inferior product to whatever you copymonster hunter is fucking doomed and it only took two games after it hit mass market appealnow it needs to fuck off and become obscure (and good) again
>>719622784what game did it copy my schizophrenic companion?
>>719622623It's not.
Y'know the thing I always thought was pretty cool about Monster Hunter was that it was an action game that played like an open ended job simulator.You don't fight things because there's an epic conflict happening with important characters, you fight because its a profession, and the idea of "clocking on to work at your fantasy job" is novel.Wilds being a linear experience with a story focus just doesn't sit right with me. This isn't what these games are about.
>>719623173Fucking what was the last time you played a Monster Hunter game? They've been linear with a story focus since World, which was seven goddamn years ago.
china
>>719621397this is what they get for releasing such a shit optimized game.
>>719621397>So, i'm a flop
>>719621397Wilds is peak with best monster designs and weapon movesets. You will sing it praises when G-rank releases. All the things that are bad about it were present since World. Story is actually a giant improvement for the series and was actually interesting to watch unforld for the first time.
>>719622138>but now RE might be the one carrying the whole corpoReturning to tradition
>>719621692Is 10 million really a flop? That's a lot of buyers
>>719621397Im having a blast bro have no idea what that article says lmao
>>719622784>pure slopnah its a blast bro just get a ps5 if your pc cant run it bro trust me bro game is a blastman
>>719623251Wilds is egregious.
>>719623587by egregious you mean its an absolute blast right bro cause it is a blast
>>719623627it would have sold millions more instead of a giant faggot with a boil on his head it was a giant wyvern women with a nice round ass and perky breasts.
>>719621825If it had a million active, it mustve sold 2-5 million on pc.
>>719623627>blastYes I remember how disappointing Dragon's Dogma 2 was. Stop fucking reminding me.
Maybe they'll learn next game not to add an obnoxious cutscene requirement for every hunt before you can play the co-op game like it's intended
>>719623678it sold 10 million bro Capcom will be okay bro relax man I don’t get why you bros worry thismuuch about a corporate well being I amsure Capcom appreciates you a lot for it bro>>719623693>DD2LUV that game its such a blast
>>719623769i don't care how much it sells, it ran like shit on my 3070, i should have learned my lesson with dragons dogma 2. I lost all fate towards crapcom
>>719623834well get a ps5 (base model) since youre pc cant run it bro it runs great on mine ps5 (base model) trust me bro youll have a blast like I did personally
>>719623397It's all about budget, marketing, and shareholding expectations for their return on investment.
Over 50% rises lifetime sales within a few months. The only people crying are shareholders and poorfags who can't buy a video card.
>>719623694forcing casuals to learn something before they are allowed to play the game online is a good thing, actually.
>>719623903No. I'm not buying a ps5 for 1 game. and other ps games do not interest me in the slightest.
>>719623903>it runs great on mine ps5 (base model)It runs at 30 FPS in 'resolution mode' which looks like shit and 60 with drops in 'performance mode' which looks like FUCKING SHIT.That's nothing to brag about, when people talking about it running poorly on PC they're talking about it looking twice as good with twice the framerate of your children's toy, which is still unacceptable performance.
Greatsword is literally impossible to play properly without focus mode seriously can't even hit a single monster in worlds idk why I bought this clunky ancient game I should of just played something else while waiting for more Wilds content.
>>719624035well okay then bro but I am telling you bro if youre pc cant run Wilds then a ps5 (base model) might be a good option man just saying bro I am having a blast
>>719624076use shoulder bash to reposition, and in general rely on faster attacks unless enemy is down you silly
>>719624065runs and looks a lot better than World did on a ps4 bro and I had so much blast in that game its crazy and neverhad any issues.
>>719621660Its not a problem specific to devs.Its a problem with development studios.Once you go corporate and need to kow-toe to investors, every word out of your mouth becomes pretty lies, focus-group-tested corpobabble, and hollow promises.It also rapidly erodes the talent and creativity of the devs.But hey people keep doing it, so the golden parachute must make up for selling your soul.
>>719621397Playstation as a brand is starting to stink as of late.
>>719621397He's not wrongIf they're targeting NS2 for their next release we might get something that is as well-optimized as Rise>>719624167Relative to World? Unironically true.Wilds runs badly but it hasn't fried any graphics cards afaik>>719624179>erodes the talent and creativity of the devs.bruh we went from a dozen monsters sharing animations between skeletons to every monster getting it's own unique animations for almost everything.That's a huge leap in freedom the developers got.
>>719624369get a ps5 (base model) then if youre pc cant run it bro it works great on mine trust me bro its a blast bro
>>719624369hardly anyone is playing on NS2, they should target steamdeck if they are serious about optimization.
>is our game bad? No it must be the system that's to blame>ignore the fact that it didn't sell well on PC either
>>719624565Capcom will live on for now bro they sold 10 mil copies bro relax man they will be alright Im sure they appreciate all your worries bro
>>719621397Did you know that troonship can also be observed in nature, namely in cases of severe parasitosis (e.g.: Sacculina Carcini)? >https://youtube.com/watch?v=rQdfBfqHnLs
>>719622173Baldur's Gate 3, Expedition 33, Helldivers 2, Battlefield 6
>>719624697well duh bro everyone knows tranny are parasite infested. unironically only Christ may save them bro
>>719621496>>719621524Eventually you'll realize that marketing isn't trying to sell you shit games, but that shit games sell you marketing, i.e.: pad traffic and engagement -- they are little more than onboarding schemes to consultation rackets, e-grifting parasocialites and digitial daycare-botfarms.The industry has been captured by PR gremlins. These PR gremlins cultivate an unsustainable economy of lies: they sell problems, rent out solutions (marginally smaller problems) and deceive everyone -- shareholders, developers, customers and players. They don't care about the quality or reception of the product, they don't care about what you believe, love or hate and they don't care to convince you of anything. The more controversy, the better for them.Their final goal however is to distract and placate you, while high finance (read: their owners, banksters) turns your passions and lifetime into vacuous commodities.>be PR gremlins>gaslight publisher into whipping developers into frenzy to create super-slop>gobble up the majority of the "development" budget, recommend hiring nepotists>proliferate more slop to e-grifting parasocialites to fan the flames; hype a product you know will fail miserably, gaslight customers and shareholders with predatory marketing>reinvest a fraction of your hyper-bloated budget and buy copies through subsidaries and at a discount to gaslight everyone some more, after padding stats shortterm refund to ruin them longterm >simultaneousely shill for and against the product to maximize controversy and thus traffic, engagement and demand of your service and that of your buisness partners, such as consultation rackets>eventually come out of it being the sole profiteer, blaming everyone elseIn other words: if you're a shareholder of a publisher or developer studio instead of an investor to a marketing agency, then you are a barely functional lobotomite.
>>719624762well I am having an absolute blast, personally

>>719625221broooo just get a ps5 (base model) if youre pc cant run it well bro trust me man probably the most accessible option for you bro
>>719624369> More animations = creativityHow has monster hunter's core gameplay evolved since its first entry?Reminder: MH1 released two decades ago.Is there two decades worth of innovation to show?
Why didn't Capcom just make Worlds 2 instead of Wilds???People wanted more of Worlds Iceborn not the ubislop that is Wilds. Now the next Monster Hunter game Capcom puts out is going to flop hard on day one because of lowered expectations.
>>719622138>while RE was flopping before 7 happenedRE6 was the best-selling title. Pretty sure to this day.
>Dragon's Dogma 2 died for thisI will kill Tsujimoto if it's the last thing I do
>>719626208DD2 flopped because they raised the minimum pawn height
>>719621397Flop?
>>719626208It's not like you could salvage the game without doing a massive rework of it, there wouldn't have been any point in giving it updates or DLC it'd be like putting lipstick on a pig. Maybe in the future they'll release a half-sequel that fixes the game from the ground up by adding new mobs, new gear, refreshing chests, and places that are actually worth exploring.
>>719621397Because it was made exclusively for us straight white men
>>719626417YesThis game is no good and sold on the series hype, the next title will pay for it.Like FFXV killed XVILike FF7 remake killed Rebirth
>>719626417If it's not a flop, why is the Capcom President justifying low profits?
>create a MH game with the sole intention of not appealing to the people who like MH>force a fucking retarded story with a disgusting pajeet child as one of the major characters>even game reviewers called it to easy >game runs like total dogshit while looking like dogshit most of the time>"no, its Sony who is to blame".
>>719625519It means more freedom, dumboIf they were going for efficiency we'd still be living in Flying Wyvern Hunter Z
>>719626538it's just that the profits are much lower. that doesn't mean it flopped. just that they expected a lot more money.the problem was that the expectations were wrong. the game itself sold well
>>719626538Because you didn't even check the source. Literally says that they are happy to hit 10 mil copies sold in the first month.
>>719621397Wilds tries to hard to appeal to everyone unlike world and rise that has their own separate playerbase
>>719625771Most of the bad decisions they made in wilds can be linked to marketing (group focus) influence.
>>719626650If Nata was a cute brown girl with the exact same story, you would be calling it the best MH game ever
>>719625771I seriously don’t understand how Wilds isn’t Worlds 2.Wilds is literally every thing World did, just cranked to 11, for both good and bad.
>>719626842>if they changed the things you don't like, the game would be better!>>719626897just think about it, it's not difficult to understand
>>719626672>>719626713>well it sold 10 million but now nobody's playing!
>>719621397a PS+ sub just to be able to play online it's like $100 now. Sony has gone insane. No matter how expensive PC gaming is paying a $100 just to be able to play online will eventually have you spending so much more and for what? Why do we have to pay to play online never made any sense.
>>719627042Playing games costs nothing in money. Buying them is what does.
>>719627042isn't that exactly what happened?what does anon mean by this
>>719626650It's funny after "don't be mean to our devs" they now blame the PS5 despite the game being a peak sony AAA movie game.
>>719627139stop calling them movie games
>>719621772Shh that guy is autistic as fuck and puts the same copypasta in every MH thread
>>719624762I genuinely dont understand how does a shareholder brain functionHistory is filled with short term profits backfiring like absolute shit onto everyone including the profiteers. Fuck, these old farts probsbly have seen (and caused) a few of these cases themselves, yet they continue to just dry the well time after time with no purpose other than meaningless profit wank that is only barely better than playing the long game by making better decisions.Really the only explanation i can get is that they are actually getting the fuck off of it. Literally nothing else.

>bad game and performance: on console> :D im having fun!>bad game and performance: on PC (still above the level of console, like actual 60FPS+)> :O why is PEE CEE so bad guys!!?I dont get it, it plays like objective shit while looking bad on PS5, either 30FPS medium or 50FPS with drops on low, but people just accept it.meanwhile people on steam are mad that theyre getting only 80FPS on ultra on their 40' series. Yeah, its bad, but what the fuck causes this difference in standards?
actually it was an extreme success

>>719626897Just Worlds bab thinking their first game was as good as the ones before it
Wilds isn't MH so who cares
>>719621397Consoles are a waste of money, we already knew this.
>>719624714>>Baldur's Gate 3, Expedition 33, Helldivers 2None of these games really make me think "shit, you couldn't do that before".>Battlefield 6Who the fuck cares about Battlefield anymore.
>>719627678because they're going to release the game there so if it flops it'll be nintendo fault.
>>719623680we know it sold around 5mio on pc the remaining 5-6 mio are on ps5 and xbox
>>719627691You're such a complete piece of dogshit moron. They cracked the code: They only have to shove ONE (singular) sexualized female and the gooners all shut the fuck up. Then you're free to fill your game with trooners, non binary hunters, crossdressers, browns, etc.
>>719621586Why is /v/ so retarded? By every metric wilds is a flop
>>719621397Yes, because the Switch 2 is so cheap and affordable and totally doesn't need a subscription for online either. Fuck off. Your game sucked and now you're coping harder than Sony after Concord.
>>719622140>Go look at sales for any game that isn’t a massive breakout hit and it’ll look like thisAnon that very chart shows it. Fucking wilds nearly got outsold by 4 year old rise that quarter. No what wilds has done is unprecedented. Every other game that quickly sold 10 mil ended up at over 25 mil several months later
>>719621397>10mil sales>veilguardThere are about a thousand lvls between monhun not doing as good as it could have and failguard.
>>719628759Because they shill for free. Capcom spent an estimated 70 to 120 million on marketing; couple that with a 7 year dev time and multiple outsourcing going on it is easy to see they spent between 250 and 300 million on Milds. When you factor in console and steams sales cut from the game you see they made potential 100/150million in profit which is solid but not enough to justify the costs. Exact same shit as Hollywood when they spend 300 mill on capeshit and profit like 50 million or break even. Yes Milds is a investor and company flop but shills and some cards think 10 mill copies sold is amazing in this economy.
>>719626930The point is how you don’t hate Nata because his story is dumb (which it is), but you hate Nata because you are a massive racist.
>>719628759>10mil in a few months is a flopRetarded, no, not even that. There is no word for your lvl of moron. Was BG3 a flop?
>>719621985Holy shit anon, Capcom itself said that Wilds "fell short of their expectations", that is the most corporate way to say "is a fucking failure", SE says those words ALL THE FUCKING TIME.
>>719628997It’s not going to happen but it’s so blatantly retarded it makes no sense. It’s like if gta 6 ended with 80 mil lifetime sales and shills tried to pretend hurdur but 80 mil big number
>>719628764Isn’t the Switch 2 much cheaper in Japan than the PS5 is?
>>719627043I've been forever baffled console users pay to access their own internet. Even for peer to peer games kek
>>719629026Yes. Having an annoying pajeet kid as a focal point in your awful story isn't helped by the rise of global pajeet hate in real life.
>>719629086BG3 is not a capcom game
>>719621397If you could have dated Gemma with the intention of marriage, the game would have sold an extra 20 million copies easy.All a man wants is to come home after a hard day to a woman that loves him.
>>719621524>investorsonly applies for Asian-made gamesALL, and I mean EVERY SINGLE ONE of western AAA games nowadays is literally propaganda paid with virtually infinite funds2 billion project flopped and died on week one? who cares, we have trillions to spend
>>719629026Whatever dumb is capcom spending so much screen time on the disgusting thing
>>719625771Capcom did make "World 2" but they double down in cinematic story and casualitation thinking they were the reasons why World succeeded.
>>719629138Irrevelant. Your next cope?
>>719629234Indeed, BG3 is irrelevant. It’s not a capcom game
>>719629026Nata’s story is dumb in the same way that having to tard-wrangler the Handler in World was equally dumb, and she was a white character. It isn’t racism, the jeetling was just another example of a stupid character that detracts from YOUR story as a monster hunter in a game called fucking Monster Hunter.
>>719629086The problem is that Wilds has no legs, Capcom wanted it to sell millions for years and it only sold 477k in first quarter after release. Launch sales are irrelevant.
>>719629332Nata is way worse than the handler. The handler was oops tee hee I’m in danger save me hunter. Jeetoid unironically says what if we are the real monster
>>719621397>The console costs about 80,000 yen in Japanese yen.Isn't it like 120k yen nowOr is that the Pro
>>719628161this guy gets it
>>719628817>Fucking wilds nearly got outsold by 4 year old rise that quarter. No what wilds has done is unprecedented. Every other game that quickly sold 10 mil ended up at over 25 mil several months laterYou’re just straight up wrong lol, games sell most of their copies in the first two weeks, then very slowly sell that initial volume again over the course of YEARS if ever
>>719629842World and Rise sold 2 millions in their first quarter, then in the second quarter and again in the third quarter. Wilds only sold 477k on its first quarter, can't you see how catastrophic this is for Capcom?
>>719629396>Village gets attacked by a monster and he has to escape>"I hate that monster, it should die for what it did">Find the village again>"That monster's not so bad after all, he's a good guy and he just wants to live">Find the monster's lair and find out he's actually evil and crazy and needs to be put down because it's a danger to the ecosystem and a threat to everything around it>"NO DON'T KILL HIM, CAN'T YOU SEE HE'S JUST LIKE ME!"Goddamn that was stupid
>>719630237fuckin jp2 vince vaughn green peace hippy bullshit
>>719629842No, I’m quite literally not wrong. There’s 3 eastern games that opened close to 8-10 mil on launch. Elden ring, wukong, and monster hunter wilds. Only wilds failed to sell even a half fucking million the follow quarter. The others were still getting millions in sales.Wilds is quite literally the steepest drop off in the history of vidya. You cannot find a single other example that is as bad as 10 mil to sub 500k.
>>719621397>THE PS5 IS KILLING GAMINGagreed
>>719630592Reminder that Milds had 1.4 million players and 1 month prior to TU2 was down to 6k players on steam. 0.428% remaining player base.
>>719630237>CAN'T YOU SEE HE'S JUST LIKE ME!I still don't understand what the fuck the writers were going for with this, there is quite literally nothing that happens to Nata at any point that makes him projecting onto Arkveld like this make any sense at all
>>719630767He’s an inhuman mutt
>>719624881at this point I'm convinced it's satire
>>719630981Elden ring and wukong are not exceptions. Their launch was exactly what you described.They sold the most in the first week and it declined over time. Most games do that. Wilds is not most games. 10 mil is sub 500k has never been done.
>>719627042well Im having a blast personally
>>719630981>DeletedLMAO
>>719629948Wilds still has sold more then Rise though in that same time frame. Why wasn't Rise the end of MH and also Capcom as we all know it?
>>719621397
>>719622140"Worlds numbers" happened BECAUSE Worlds had legs you bumblefuck retard.
>>719631196They are exceptions, look at games that weren’t massive successes not the omegahuge ones like ER and Wukong (of course that game sells infinite copies it’s fucking Chinese)>>719631326I deleted because I got what I typed mixed up with what I was thinking while typing. MOST games don’t have legs by the dumb standards you’re trying to use
>>719631326Taking one look at the spam going on in the catalogue and the resident jeet defending wilds is probably blacked posting, not realizing when he gets banned it deletes his other posts
>>719621397I blame the game being garbage on the flop.
>>719631389Legs anon, LEGS! we are talking about post launch sales, that is the one thing making Capcom insanely mad. Wilds has no legs, is not selling millions per month post launch, which means they aren't getting continuous profits from cosmetics DLC, also the player retention is terrible.
>>719631423Worlds had legs because the PC version came out way later then the console version did, and was better at playing World then PS4 ever was.
>>719631425>of course that game sells infinite copies it’s fucking ChineseYou are aware China absolutely loves monster hunter, is the majority of wilds sales, and the daily player count peaks in China prime time? Why is wilds not beating wukong?
>>719631226>beginner gear its def a dead game outside of autistssupremekek
>>719631389Budget retard. Cost of dev versus return
>>719631389Rise launched on one single platform I would surely hope it doesn’t beat out a multi plat
>>719631562Because it’s fucking Wukong, the character who is in every assfaggot in existence and many other games because China numbah wan
I dont get it bros gotta be honest some of you seem schizo as fuck bro like what do you want man do you want Capcom games to not appeal to every normie nigger out there while simultaneously selling a bagazillion copies bro? like bro what do you faggots actually want man? lmao too funny bro
>>719631638That’s not an answer. China basically solo supported fucking frontier. MH is huge in China, why did wilds not beat wukong?
Remember when you faggots were crowning this GOTY before it even came out?
>>719631573you play MH bro you cant even recognize the diver gear which has been is so many MH games during bloom festival bro you are just a poser bro you have beenfound out bro
>>719631691>Wukong eclipsing Monster Hunter in popularity is not an argument for Wukong being more popular than Monster Hunter???????
Rise ran at flawless 60fps on my GTX1050 with 2GB memory and unironically looked better.
You can tell that everyone shitting on Capcom these days is some third world megamanspic that's upset that they haven't made another Megaman game despite the series having over 70 fucking games already.
>>719631786But it did not eclipse monster hunter in popularity? Please tell me why wilds did not beat wukong
>>719631809nice bro MH Rise is a blast as well have fun bro but telling you bro if you wish to blast it up on Wilds then a ps5 (base model) is probably a good option for you bro if youre pc cant run it bro
>>719631816>he doesn’t know about the capcom shit cycle Newfag
>>719631857>But it did not eclipse monster hunter in popularity?Do you know literally anything about China lol there is a reason that character is shoved into as much shit as possible
>>719631389>Rise launches to good sales and continues to sell well afterwards, indicating positive word-of-mouth, good prospects for the paid expansion, and continued interest in the franchise forward>Wilds launches to great sales but they immediately plummet, indicating negative word-of-mouth, bad prospect for the paid expansion, and loss of interest in the franchise going forwardThis shouldn't be hard to understand
>>719631816>it's Megaman's fault Wilds floppedDesperate
>>719631816>he bought wilds
>>719631650people want world 2.wilds is not world 2.it looks worse than world and runs worse than world.
>>719632038I’ve actually read Journey to the West. The annotated in depth translation by Anthony Yu. I am familiar with the character of Wukong, it seems you are not.
Games selling less than their launch is normal but I don't think there has ever been a case where the sales drop a fucking 95% of its launch sales, this is unprecedent.
>>71963204010 million copies bro Capcom will be okay man relax bro no need to be such a worrywart bro
World = Avatar Last AirbenderWilds = Avatar Korra
>>719632185I was dooming wilds really really hard and thought it would be at 12 mil or so which would be normal flop but yeah there isn’t another fall off this bad
Milds is easily the worst game after risetrashWe will never ever get another world like masterpiece:(
>>719632129well Im having a blast personally
>>719621397Milds isn't all that but it's retarded to compare it to Failguard
>>719632267you forgot to say bro
>>719632334Veilguard was beating wilds on PS5 charts like 3 weeks into wilds launch, the comparison is apt
>>719632267what do you mean bro
Wilds is a pretty fun game when you don't have retards screaming in your ear that you deserve death for playing it.
>>719632393That's.... concerning.
>>719632447when you play wilds all you can think is "man i could be playing worlds with much better graphics and framerate". wilds at 1440p runs the same as world at 8k
>>719632449In wilds “defense” it was when psn+ gave away veilguard for free. But still people would rather play fucking veilguard than wilds despite it only coming out a month ago
Wilds is shit, huh?
>>719629087It doesn't matter if the company itself said it. MH Wilds must have sold good or I won't feel good about myself.
>>719632447yeah I thought the same about superman 64
>>719632129Wilds is the way it is BECAUSE it's world 2.
>>719632551>>719632219
>>719632449That wasn't sales, it was players and its because it was free on PSN plus that week.
>>719631931I can run it but it runs like shit and looks bad and the game is worse so I've been playing other games
>>719632485then why not play World until you can finally blast it up on Wilds bro telling you man when the time comes a ps5(base model) will probably be your best option bro it runs great on mine its a blast bro
>>719621397So next MH will be targeting switch and be optimized again? Yeey
>>719632129Capcom thought that what people liked from World was the cinematic story and how "accessible" it was (except they confused "accessibility" with "easier").
>>719632574They fall this damning with faint praise
>>719632447This but Rise
>>719627530The reason people are dropping it is because the updates don't have enough story content. If they want continued success every update should spend most of it's time expanding the story of Rise's characters.
>>719632638>nooo how dare you supply context to my outrageous claim
>>719632782>RiseWhat?
>>719630767The logical explanation is that it's an extreme gigacope cooked up by the brain of a child who can't cope with the reality of all of his friends and neighbours being ruthlessly slaughtered like sheep in front of his eyes as he's powerless to stop it, so he instead tries to put the blame on the keepers to distance himself from the situation and pretend Arkveld isn't an ungodly abomination like some sort of Stockholm syndrome offshootThe actual answer is that the writers are fucking retarded
>>719629367>no legsTrue. But underperform in 1 area=/=flop>launch sales irrevelantI suggest you move back to reality.>>719629329Lmao. Keep huffing.
>>719632795You mean the context I provided before you >>719632518What’s hilarious is your defense of more people playing veilguard on ps5 was that “it’s free” it’s fucking veilguard man
>>719633847Is this a bot? Who the fuck thinks baldur’s gate was made by capcom
>>719634063That was not even his point. Are people really that bad at reading comprehension?
>>719621825So it still has 150k people playing on a regular basis? Pretty good honestly. They'll get even more by pushing out further updates and performance improvements.
>>719621397Paying for your own internet is the faggiest thing imaginable though.
>>719634425On the weekend it got less players than fallout 76
>10m copies in a month due to pre-launch hype and goodwill from World/Rise>sales completely collapse after launch, even worse than DD2 in comparison>went from #5 highest peak on Steam to barely have more concurrents than World (a game from 7 years ago with no updates since 2020)>even releasing the endgame expansion early barely did anythingDunno how people can really spin this as positive or even neutral
>>719631226blastbros where we at??
>>719634425Uh bro that’s launch, wilds is sub 10k outside of china time
>>719634425That was AprilNowadays the average is around 20k
>>719634646The positive is that maybe capcom will course correct and not double down on wilds retarded design choices
>>719621397Game devs and publishers have become so pussified and soft in the past decade or so. The amount bitch ass "n-nuh it was your fault, the console's fault, the death threats fault, etc and etc" whiny cunty PR is amazing.
Did Capcom really think Wilds would have the same word of mouth as World?With the game looking like it does and running as badly as it does?The only good thing I can say about Wilds is that it has 2 sexy ladies in it.
>>719635356It did have the same word of mouth as world, thats why people stopped buying it
>>719635356A butter face (without the personality to compensate, like Cleopatra) and an extremely average glasses aren't sexy.
>>719635356>does capcom think I honestly believe they do not think. Wilds is a game that reeks of “we just let an algorithm decide”.
>>719634302Low functioning autists on display, methinks.>>719634063Point out where I said that. Pretending 10mil sales are some sort big failure is blatantly retarded, clown shit.
>>719635463World had massively positive word of mouth and sold millions in the following quarters after launch Wilds has no word of mouth and sells sub 500k
>>719624524lol the switch 2 outsold that piece of shit in 3 days
>>71963552510 mil sales is utter garbage for monster hunter wilds specifically.50 million sales is amazing for almost any game. If GTA 6 doesn’t get over 50 million in ten years that’s an utter fucking disaster
>>719635028>have become so pussified and soft in the past decadeThis goes for the whole tech industry. I've seen companies where you're not allowed to say anything negative cause "positive feedback culture" even if someone fucks up everything. Customers however don't care about internal policies and flat out tell them shit sucks breaking all those faggots that cannot stomach negativity as they live in a hugbox.
>>719635525A low functioning autist confuses baldur’s gate with monster hunter
>>719621524>investorsit's 1 investor
>>719632219But Korra was good
>>719633997>it’s fucking veilguard manSometimes people like looking at trainwrecks
>>719621397>Release game on 3DS>Runs well>Release games on Switch>Runs well>Release game on PS4>Runs like shit, needs years of patching, needs community mods to fix>Release game on PS5>Runs like shit, needs, needs X of patching, needs community mods to fixI'm noticing a pattern
>>719635739there is zero(0) chance that they will not have a metric truckload of micro transactions in GTA6 on day 1. They are going to print money like they have a license to print.
>>719621397They better not port Milds to Switch 2, just mercy kill Milds and release the next Itchynose game already.
Hot take: World only sold because it was a "Nintendo" game on PlayStation, the novelty has worn off and it's why Wilds is selling as every other third party game.
>>719636217Monster Hunter should have stayed on portable systems.Rise 2 for Switch 2 when?Rise actually had color, cute girls, and combat that didn't feel like the character swimming in peanut butter.
>>7196362174U on 3ds and GU on switch run like ass
>>719621397>blaming the PS5Isn’t it pretty well known by now that Sony forces developers to gimp their games with all these limitations, and they can’t change anything unless Sony gives the green light? No wonder the whole PS4/PS5 era feels packed with unoptimized shit games, it’s because of Sony’s retarded rules.
>>719621397Wilds isn't a flop, it's a disappointment to the company. Why? Sales after initial release has slowed down considerably and all that additional DLC they've been trying to sell hasn't, so now all these additional TU are now costing them money. Understandable, as the game launched with less content than any other Monster Hunter game, and had to patch it back in later. Evidently that world class story about a faggot kid being retarded was more important than franchise staples.
>blaming the ps5 when the ps5 version runs the best
>>719621397>literally nobody owned a PS5 at release>literally every copy of wilds that sales for PS5 requires you to purchase the entire console>this is why the game has died after the initial wave this is beyond retarded cope and is partially why most nobody respects them or their culture.
>>719628128>redditfrog avatarfagging
>>719623397Capcom sees Wilds as game as a service title and they expect long term stable sales. Street Fighter 6 makes them a lot more money long term due to microtransactions,DLC sales and base game sales too. Wilds sales completly flatlined shortly after release no one buys it anymore.
>>719631493DA is just shitty Nwn2 anyway.>boring ass universe lacking even a quarter of the detail D&D has>combat became press x to do something awesome>forced politics and DEI and Wokeoh and BG3 sucks too.
>>719636554?You didnt enjoy buttery smooth 30fps?
>make a game that runs like complete horse ass on an equivalent priced PC and xbox to pressure people to buy a ps5 instead because you did all of your optimizing and development for it>forget that barely anybody wants to buy a ps5 for one gamewoooooow how was i supposed to know that huh>>The Nintendo Switch 2 was released in June 2025 at a price of 49,980 yen (tax included), and the response was better than we had expected. While prices vary by country, this reaffirmed the high level of cost-consciousness among ordinary consumers.do they genuinely live in the clouds if this came as a "surprise"
Which this failure make Capcom change? I remember RE6 lackluster sales made them reformat RE completely.
>advertise it via playstation >6 months pass>suddenly blame the PS5 for wilds being shitDid some contract expire?
>>719638362Just grasping at any straws to justify the disastrous quarterly sales.
>>719621551The game has sold less than 1 million copies in Japan on PS5 and stopped charting fairly quickly, that's disastrous considering how massively popular Monster Hunter is in Japan. PC is a growing platform in Japan unlike Playstation which is a dying brand over there but since the PC port is awful, the legs for that haven't been very good either.
>>719621397>Veilguard is woke and bombs>Wilds is anti woke and bombsLooks like the real lesson is make a good game
>>719621397*ting* *ting* *ting*Allow me to make a proclamation.The pajeet sidekick did it. HE killed the franchise.
>game demo launches>performance is TERRIBLE"Gonna wait for release and see if people say it got better to buy that one, chief">people say it's still terribleThe fault is all on them.
Please tell me the Japanese are calling out this bullshit.
>>719639051>people still buy it and it has more players on launch than the Elder fucking Ring.nah they fault is on consumer retards
>>719639051>It's just a BETA!>They'll FIX IT!kek
>>719621397Wow Resetera tranny Uzzy doing his best to stir up platform warring. Monster Hunter Wilds was spammed to be the PC master race game. It holds a Overwhelming Negative review score on Steam because the majority of PC fanboys don't have the specs to play it.
>>719638720>PC is a growing platform in JapanWasn't there an article recently that said the exact opposite?
>>719638362well playstation had bundle with monster hunter wilds, I saw retailers trying to sell their remaining stock of xbox for 25,000 yen calling it monster hunter machine too but no one baited
>>719621397>sell 10 million copies because of brand name>drops off a cliff because everyone sees how fucking shitty it isAh yes, the rare delayed-flop type game.
>>719639054Japan is nintendo land, they would be calling out non-nintendo on principle
Milds is actually good because all the other games in the series were bad.
Nothing was stopping Capcom from making Wilds not run like complete dogshit so they could have released it on PS4 as well.
>>719639298That included browser based games like Granblue or Kancolle which were massive in Japan a decade ago but have fallen off. Conventional PC gaming platforms like Steam have since taken off, just look at the Steam Surveys.
>>719632194the OP is literally Capcom admitting that the game bombed jeet. with long development cycles you can't afford to have your game sell well initially and stop selling afterwards. it needs to help development costs of future games
>>719637756I know 30 isn't ideal but I'd rather take 30 fps than 15 fps like wilds. it has no reason to run this bad
>>719638362the PS5 has been abysmal for software sales. sony had to (and still does) mask numbers for the console so hard that they started bundling software sales for PS4 and 5 while also now reporting dlc and mtx as well
>>719640385>the PS5 has been abysmal for software sales.Anyone who owns a PS5 and not a gaming PC, very likely has the more expensive PS+ tier, since why would you buy multiple $70-80 games a year when you can just have access to a whole library you'll never finish, for the price of two games a year instead.
>>719635525>Pretending 10mil sales are some sort big failure is blatantly retarded, clown shit.Tell that to Crapcom then, they've been saying this shit multiple times now.
>>719639929You actually can afford it if that it the target sales goal. But wilds is a live service game in a year where capcom was counting on it to carry multiple quarters where they lack a big release, so it failing after launch is really really bad
>>719639298PCMR gaming in Japan is a single digit growth market in Japanese society. It is, like you said, a shrinking market. PC fanboy zealot gaming is also shrinking in Germany, by 20% actually. Naturally you'll wanna know why. A PC gaming component on average costs 500 dollars for entry level, such as graphic cards. Japan is in a recession, as in Germany. PCMR trannies like Uzzy don't wanna admit it, though. Hurts their fanboy feelings.Monster Hunter Wilds sold the most on PC and it has an Overwhelming Negative user review score, for months, because the average PC fanboy here and elsewhere have atrocious PC for modern games https://store.steampowered.com/app/2246340/Monster_Hunter_Wilds/. Capcom cancelled a presentation about optimizing MH Wilds in Japan because of death threats from PC vegan fanboys https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/capcom-cancels-monster-hunter-performance-lecture-as-staff-face-threats-from-players/.PC fanboy shrinking in Germany: https://www.game.de/en/the-most-popular-gaming-platforms-in-germany-console-and-smartphone-attract-ever-more-video-game-players/
>>719636554If they run like ass then wilds runs like diarrhea (heh)
>>719640803>because the average PC fanboy here and elsewhere have atrocious PC for modern gamesYeah let's just completely ignore that even 4090 users couldn't max out the game without some serious chugs, for something that barely looked any better than World, which ran on vastly weaker hardware.
>>719621397no asian?
During an interview with Nikkei Gaming (translated by ResetEra), Tsujimoto discussed the immediate success of the title, which sold eight million copies in three days making it the fastest-selling title in Capcom's history.However, in its most recent financial results Capcom described sales of Monster Hunter Wilds as "soft" having moved 477,000 units in Q1 2025, bringing its total sales to 10.6 million units.Tsujimoto attributed this drop to the high price of the PlayStation 5 and subscriptions, along with the $70 game price tag, as a barrier for most consumers.Welp, Sony could make a shitty console next with only shitty graphics possible. I guess there's that.
Japan is crazy about the Deck, since they've always preferred handhelds.This is what Wilds looks like on the deck.
I remember /v/ shitposting non stop that "Wilds would save the PS5" and now we have Capcom blaming PS5 for Wilds' failure, what fucking bizarre timeline we are living.
>>719641509None of us were expecting Wilds to be a hand-holdy story with BROWN/YELLOW DESERT for a third of the game, while running at 720p.
>>719629026>it's only racism if you dislike a male child but it is not racism if you like a female child of that same racelol anon your mind is raped
>>719641408RETVRN to stylized graphics when
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2246340/Monster_Hunter_Wilds/ PC Monster Hunter Wilds maintains an overwhelming negative review score, citing deep performance issues. Per PCMR vegan lifestyle fanboys bragging about being the biggest sales platform for this game.
>>719636217World ran okayish compared to the fucking mess that is WildsBut yeah, the moral of the story is that all of the MH games should target the weakest system around to force the team to lock the fuck in.
>>719641509God hates sony and its fans
>>719642094>Monster Hunter Wilds has received widespread criticism for its poor PC performance, with players on high-end systems struggling to achieve smooth frame rates and stable performance. The game suffers from frame rate drops, stutters, high CPU usage spikes after updates, and an inability to maintain 60 FPS without frame generation, even at lower resolutions and settings. Technical issues like slow texture loading and poor texture streaming also contribute to a subpar experience, with the developers' initial response being perceived as dismissive.Dilate harder in your PC platform warring thread troon Uzzy.
Why would i purchase an extremely sanitized modern Capcom game? Combine that with the poor optimization and you have a product i don't wanna purchase
He's partially right Sony has chilled enthusiasm for console gamers to chase a wider audience that didn't really exist, but that's also what Capcom did...
>>719625519NTA but MH became a great Spiderman game in Rise
>>719632185People thought it was going to be World 2, it wasn't. I wonder if Master Rank can even save it at this point.
>>719621397>Gimp the game for people who hate monster hunter>Monster Hunter fans don't evangelise the game>Game has no legsIt's not complicated.
>>719641659Dude, you are on /v/. Basically the birthplace of “I’m not racist when it makes my dick hard”
I gotta say tho, this whole shitshow is so fucking funny after years of World babies shitting on Rise kek
>>719621692Man, they're really sitting on DMC6, insane legs for DMCV
>>719641806hmmmmmmmmmmmm
I swear Capcom, and only Capcom, has the dumbest metric on what qualifies as "success" for them. They just need bullshit excuses to hold finished video games hostage when the president wine cellar gets empty.
>>719643701Bizarrely Capcom was happy with MHS2 just selling 1 million during its first fiscal year, it selling that in one month and ending up selling 2 millions by last report specifically "surpassed their expectation".
>>719644358Because it was a relatively new IP spinoff with a low budget. When Capcom makes more than invested on something new its a 'surprise'
>>719622096>>719622173Also, console prices haven't even lowered, in fact PS5 has only become more expensive and ps plus in order to play online has also risen in price, it feels like we're still only 20% inside this console generation still, I can't imagine a PS6 coming in any time soon, and if it does, I will be angry because it will be a retarded decision.
>>719621397Did they actually use the word "Flopping" in their article? Did you wrote this?
>>719621656Yes and they can't sue if you deny it being your fault.
>>719644589This is one of the biggest reasons the PS5 is dead in the water in Japan. By this point in its lifetime the PS4 was already heavily discounted but the PS5 price just keeps increasing.Things will get better in the west thanks to GTA6 but in Japan the PS5 is dead. The Switch 2 was the last nail in the coffin.
GOOD, fuck monster hunter as well as capcom for relying in the same 3 fucking franchises and leaving their other IPs collecting dust in the attic
>>719629197>>719635851These goys get it
i dunno how they managed to fuck over both monster hunter and dragons dogma with their shitty RE engine
>>719643275Without itsuno it'll be guaranteed to suck ass, kamiya could do it but he is doing okami 2 and probably would rather do a new viewtiful Joe before returning to dmc
this is karma for fucking up dd2 by rushing it
Because MH at least isn't shitty trans propaganda.
Hope every new capcon game flops until we get Megaman X9
>>719645457>have literally infinite money>don't fix your teeth
>>719643275Yeah man just make a DMC6 except your talent including Itsuno (whether you like him or not) left after DD2. They can force MH directors to make it ans outsource most of it to poopland and bugland what could go wrong.
>>719644972Wait till persona 6 revives the system in nipland
>>719626417do you understand how the world works retard? every next MH game will suffer. its sold good in the first week and then everyone realized its shit and now its hurting the brand
>>719645697No time for dental work, there's still too many gingers out there who haven't had their letters rearranged
>>719629197so why are they closing studios and firing thousands of people? dumb polfaggot
>>719622369duhbut if the dev admits error then they'll expect future earnings to also be bad which is a signal to exit
>>719646031So they can liquidate the assets and buy more studios and do the same shit you stupid fucking goycattle, no wonder we run all your countries lmao
>>719646031why are thousands of business men making incredibly bad decisions then?
>>719646156schlmo telling how it is
>>719626534XVI and Rebirth were killed by exclusivity. PS5 owners are either browns who only play sports and CoD or Sony loyalists who only play Sony 1st party games. 3rd party PS5 exclusivity is a death sentence.I don't even know that they would've been "successful" with a simultaneous PC release but they certainly would've done better considering how much of the remaining FF audience is on PC now with aging and XIV being the only thing keeping the brand relevant.
>>719646397>XIV>keeping the brand relevantit's actually VII and it's not even closeeveryone, their grandmother and their dog has played VII
>>719627230>I genuinely dont understand how does a shareholder brain functionbecause these are rarely normal people. They were born in luxury and have lived a completely different life from you or me. Something about being rich and having all bridges open to you from a young age fucks with your brain chemicals, I have a rich friend who's the oddest person I know and despite being successful career-wise he seems to struggle with some basic social shit - yet he's neither a nerd nor a shut-in
>>719630237>>719630767>it's a danger to the ecosystem and a threat to everything around it>HE'S JUST LIKE ME!>PajeetKid adquired self-awareness i guess
>>719627230because all of them have more money than senselosses that makes us plebeians balk is just pocket change for themit's all just a game for them, something to do while they wait a way to become immortal
>>719646524If it was really 7 then rebirth would've carried its own weight, which it absolutely was not able to do on PS5 alone even as a proportion of PS5 owners. There's far too much time between FF releases now compared to the SNES era through 10 for it to be anything other than the ongoing game carrying it, and now XIV is radioactive too so it's probably just fucked unless SE can make an FF themed Genshin Impact clone that's actually decent.
>>719645915Monster Hunter is much bigger than Persona in Japan, it's not even close. If monhun could not save the PS5 there nothing can.
>>719627230You can't actually lose with that kind of money unless you are a colossal fuckup on a magnitude rarely seen in history.
>>719644435I hope the one making sure MHS doesn't get buried is not the nepo baby.
Focus mode by itself was a huge blunder in my eyes. There are other minor mechanical changes like perfect block that could be made to have tighter windows or something.I have no idea how they can up difficulty and it still be fun with the focus systems in place. I've heard some people say maybe introducing stamina drain to it or something, but I don't see a point.
>>719647978They keep swinging between monsters spending 90% of the fight rolling around on the ground or being literally impossible to knockover without a gimmick when they already had a solution to this in every other game in the seriesLike the fake staggers brute wyverns had in World or Gore and Lagiacrus literally just not tripping anymore in Wilds are the dumbest shitJust make them fall over if you hit their legs enough
>>719647978They cannot, reticle aiming is traditionally balanced through the following means >adding hordes of small enemies >enemies have extremely small weakness >the player has some sort of limited resource Nothing they can do can to monster design can fix focus. It either needs to be removed, or itself be a limited resource that is consumed
>>719647978I mean, despite the existence of focus mode and perfect guard and whatever else, I’m seeing a lot of people getting wrecked in 9 star fights.
>>719648220The only “people” still playing wilds are the most retarded shitters imaginable
>>719647081Very nice, now about those numbers that have PC fanboy gaming shrinking in Germany and Japan? Monster Hunter Wild sold the most on PC. Yet the alleged PCMR market is still single digit and dropping in Japan. GPU costs like 1000 dollars in Japan because they're in a recession with a very weak yen.Just passing it on for Uzzy troon.
>>719648220Perfect guards still eat chip damage it's just equal to Guard 3 if you do itThey finally made Lance's powerguard not eat double damage because monsters were getting past 4U levels of chip
>>719630237Crazy because the series message is preservation through hunting threats to ecosystems and now we are supposed to feel bad for le heckin chungus arkveld who is demolishing said ecosystems
>>719621397>2018>5 years since PS4 came out>Around 85 million of them were sold at the time>World was a huge success for Capcom>2025>5 years since PS5 came out>80 million sold by now>Capcom makes excuses by blaming PS5 for Wilds "underperforming"Yep it's the Console's fault and not actual relevant factors
>ever since IG was introduced>does IG do most damage being in the air?>if yes game good>if no game badVery simple.
>>719621397All games flop because they're made for 12 year old consoles. I'm glad the npcs are starting to notice this as well
>>719648510In which game did IG do the most damage in the air? As far as I'm aware it's infinite combo with at least red and white did the most in every one of these?Unless you're saying they're all bad?
>third parties actually talking badly about a Sony console>Nintendo winning two generations in a rowNow I know I'm in bizarro world. I wonder if big daddy Sony will blacklist Capcom for daring to speak ill if Playstation.
>>719648678I'll admit that flipping around and then ending with a supercharged Diving Wyvern was fun in Rise, but I'm pretty sure that playing like that is not particularly optimal.
>>719648220no you see it doesn't countwhy?because i said so, wilds bad
>>719648845>Sony>Blacklisting on of their beloved AAAA companies.
I wonder how Sony feels about this.
>>719648678Jumping is more or less useful depending on the monster but I don't think its ever been the most damage besides niche cases like Gogmazios being turbo weak to mounting
>>719651356Isn't that more to knock the dragonator off of its back as soon as possible? I know that's why I did it. Once it's gone it's back to standard combo 'o clock.
>>719650620Maybe it will make them realize that raising the price of their consoles and subscriptions this late into a consoles life span was a fucking retarded decision?
>>719650620They aren't worried at all now that they are making a Switch clone.
I love MH and I almost fell for MH:Wilds, thank god their talks about open world and other retarded shit discouraged me
>>719650620Sony too busy eating shit for their other decisions like buying Bungie, EVO, and other shit that's failed them
Instead of releasing a Pro edition of PS5, Sony should have released an L edition less powerful than Switch 1 with $10 games. No, I'm not retarded. I'm the CEO of Capcom.
>>719651473Gog doesn't build up any mounting resist so you get a lot of free knockdowns and part damageProbably not the FASTEST but it made shit like Bombs over Gogmazios a lot safer in multiplayer when he's falling over twice as oftenAnd Glaive can hit his chest with the jump so its not as much of a loss of damage as in some other fights
Why his game failed?
>>719650620
>>719623407This shit looks gay anon.
He'll learn what disappointing sales really are when Resident Evil starring strong woman releases.
>>719652198But the MC of Requiem is anything but strong, she is supposed to be scared and weak.
>>719623407Is that Rise or Wilds? I can't tell
>>719627230its just gambling on a bigger scale for bigger fish (with smaller brains)
>>719652198If Requiem follows the trend of DD2 and Wilds then Capcom might genuinely be fucked
>>719624167Are you a jeet perchance? Do ou feel like you HAVE to defend this game because the main characters is stupid pajeet that is universally hated? My friend bought and returned a ps5 pro in record time because the game ran badly.
>>719653049I have to assume he's either a really dedicated troll or a very shitty marketer.
>>719652187nah bro its a blast>>719652563its Wilds bro although Rise is just as much of a blast bro>>719653049what games do /v niggers like you play bro lol
>>719653007>DD2 LUV that game its such a blast
>>719645591Give it to Kamiya, he's actually interested in making more DMC.
>>719648378Any game that doesn't come to the Switch 1/2 might as well not exist in Japan.Capcom released motherfucking Monster Hunter 6 this year on every platform but the Switch, yet their latest report showed that 90% of the sales of their games came from that platform in Japan.
>>719652161Real people aren't this ugly.
>>719621825What a massive player drop lol. Honestly? Well deserved. This game’s a trainwreck, and easily the worst of the year. Capcom needs to wake the fuck up and hand it off to devs who actually know what they’re doing.
>>719627676bruhdder, wilds is getting 24h peaks comparable to worlds nowhttps://steamdb.info/app/582010/charts/
>1 of 26 matches for "blast"is it that fun to larp as a redditor? oh wait, this is /v/
>>719653007Music to my ears
>>719653792Even if he does it immediately after okami 2, wouldn't he be too old by then?
Won't be buying crapcom shit until we get answers on this mystery silhouette
>>719655268Anon, look at the down right logo, this is just a figurine.
>>719653007Let's see how many e-celebs and vtrannies they will get this time for the marketing push
just waiting for next portable team keeno desu
>>719655521It doesn't look like any other armor in the X series, so it must be from a new game, why else would kotobukiya take so long to reveal it?
>>719640528>the PS5 has been abysmal for software sales.>Anyone who owns a PS5 and not a gaming PC, very likely has the more expensive PS+ tier, since why would you buy multiple $70-80 games a year when you can just have access to a whole library you'll never finish, for the price of two games a year instead.Or just wait for sales?
>>719621397I was hoping Capcom would ditch Enigma at some point but the bullshit costs $50/year for a commercial license. Unlike Denuvo, which costs actual money. So they probably will keep renewing the Enigma license until they go underI'm still not going to buy new Capcom games. But I might start playing the ones I've already bought again
>>719621397>too scared to throw the PC into it but light jabs at it anyways
>>719651981they sold evo last week actually
>>719648845if this was the PS2 generation I could see it, but sony today can't take this hit. they're in a very unfavorable spot for that right now
>>719657014Hope the new owners fuck little boys to get back the original spirit of evo
>>719647978that shit fundamentally breaks monster hunter and turns it into a retard masher.it cant be salvaged.
Monster Hunter just sucks
>>719656754>But I might start playing the ones I've already bought againUnless Capcom retroactively adds Engima to them.
>>719646059>duh, but iflol what will it take for you to get it?
feels good to play the most popular monster hunter game, good day to be a monster hunter enjoyer
>>719657014That's what I was referring to. Can't imagine they want to be paying for multiple EVOs
>>719647978I feel like I'm going crazy because at launch I remember people talking about it being the best in the series gameplay-wise
>>719641572I expected that, as its the followup of world.
>>719657583damn, this game really is dead
>even crapcom hates snoypedosholy based
>>719653007DD2 was so good. Just needed more content and enemies. Not worried about Requiem at all.
>>719657583>numbers this low for wilds>look it up to see if it's bullshit>it's even lowerwhat the fuck
>>719657659many here already called the gameplay out in the beta but were shouted down by drones, who are somehow missing from these threads for some reason.I did one beta hunt with focus mode and uninstalled.
>>719621825>NOOO YOU HAVE TO KEEP PLAYING THE SAME GAME NONSTOP FOR MONTHS BECAUSE....YOU HAVE TOOO!!!
>>719646787Dude not a single one of them is investing significantly in immortality and life extension research.
>>719621397i genuinely don't understand MH fans. It's literally the SAME GAME for decades now. Literally pokemon with a different coat of paint.
Blast bros....
>>719657848before TU2, World actually overtook it, though part of it was that World went on sale around that time
>>719621397>Dragon's Dogma 2 was rushed out for this piece of shitNuke Capcom execs
>>719658054thats because you're a retard and barely human.
>>719657898wolrd used to top the charts for years
>>719655215Not that anon but I'd say...Not necessarily, this year he is 55, Kojima is 60 by comparison, if he is still of sound mind he might go all the way to 70......
>>719658152It's extra funny because then Wilds was also rushed out in turn. What the fuck is crapcom even doing.
>>719658454Capcom had been having record sales for 8 years in a row, they needed Wilds out before the end of the fiscal year so they could brag to the investors that they broke record profits for another year and they did but Wilds suffered as result and now they lost their streak of record breaking years. Capcom sacrificed long term success for short term one.
>>719658454Trying to please the investors.
>>719621524Total public company deathTotal investor deathShares were a mistakeBring back.privately owned companies only so they are fully accountable for their mistakes
>>719657898it's MH. it definitely should have more people playing it, specially in the era of TUs
>>719658454Apparently they promised their stockholders growth every year for ten years, so they're rushing out titles to meet the goal by the end of the year.
>>7196232512 out of the like 15 games are the majority now?Worldbabs and their consequences have been disastrous for monhun
>>719657851same. I played 10 minutes and that is by far the least amount of time I played any MH in 16 years.
>>719623903Your gimmick is played outIt was barely believable when you started this shit
>>719621397>Im non-baaahheryThats cool, but who fucking asked dude?
>>719658208you triggered, MH troon?
>sell 10 million>"It's a flop...">sell 80 thousand>"This is a commercial success actually"
>>719659574flopping or nor is relative to budget (and a few other factors, but mostly budget), so those statements aren't both wrong at the same time if you assume different games
>>719659574Production cost anon, but that is not the problem here. I am sure wilds made back its budget but capcom wanted it to carry them alone by selling millions for years so only selling 477k on the first quater after opening with 10 millions is catastrophic.
>>719621692>10 million is a flopI fucking hate you retards
>>719659687So according to this thing, Wilds was a runaway success while Veilguard was a flop of catastrophic proportions
>>719659919capcom's words to be fair
>>719659919>Ignoring Capcom complaining about the game not having legs, outright saying "it fell short of our expectations" and now trying to blame Sony for it.Anon pls.
>>719658827That's hilarious. There's absolutely no way they'll get that growth next year now that Wilds sold great and simultaneously fucked MH as a whole.
>>719659919It's only a flop in the live service sense. They obviously wanted people to stick around and spend money on the cash shop, but having a functional game that runs at more than 30FPS is a prerequisite for that.
>>719660125Wrong thread?
>>719659919it is in capcom's eyes retard. RE6 over 16 million, Capcom STILL went on record saying it was a disaster in the end and wasn't worth it, that's the entire fucking reason why RE7 had to be such a standout game that was different. They COULDN'T repeat the same mistake, it would kill the series
>>719659961purely speculative. nobody doubts that MH made its money back, but the problem here, at least for capcom, is that this game is supposed to last and generate money for its entire life. that might be the entire generation mate. do you think they wan this game to sell a lot and stop?
>>719659984>if it doesn’t sell 10 million copies a month every month for at least the first year it’s a flop
>>719660157Shit, yea
>>719659961see >>719659984
>>719660204It is for capcom and yes, they wanted it to sell non stop and outsell World and at this rate it won't outsell Rise.
>>719660204are you ignoring that capcom is dissatisfied with the game's performance, not that anon, or did you not understand that?
>>719660249Yes I saw that but it doesn't change the fact that, relative to its budget, Wilds was a massive success.
>>719660296capcom is also not very bright. remember that they made a campaign for people to try MH world right before wilds came out, resulting in possibly millions of new possible consumers to shift from the new game to the old one that already has all of its content out there
>The shills have arrived contradicting the fucking developers saying Milds is a successBros I'm not feeling the blast anymore bro
>>719658796I have never played a single Monster Hunter game and I honestly don't understand why anyone else should either. Why did World and Wilds become mainstream seemingly overnight?
>>719660365not to capcom apparently
>>719621397Didn't it have the Body Type A and B bullshit? Could be the reason.
>>719645591>kamiya could do itLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
>Blastfags are still shilling wildsLmao
>>719659782>I am sure wilds made back its budgethahahahahaha
>Game is only a success if it keeps printing unlimited money forever.Can we just admit that capitalism has failed already?
>>719621397You don't need online, world and eilds basically tell you you're a solo hunter
>>719655215Kamiya's only in his mid 50s, he can easily work for another 20 years
We reached at point were, even if the company outright says a product didn't reach their expectations, fanboys will deny THE COMPANY ITSELF? I can't take this anymore, this place should burn down.
>>719660531it took it a stage further and didn't even label the bodies at all. You just pick a preset.
>>719660454World somehow lucked in to releasing in a an absolutely dead period early that year and picked up a bunch of wannabe multiplayer casuals larping as sweeties who spread the game via word of mouth to other casuals because there was absolutely nothing else to play at the time and for 3 months afterPerfect storm then things snowballed and it went on sale heapsIgnore any following worldsperm revisionist try to tell you the game was actually goodt.started with MHFU on the psp aeons ago
>>719660454world became a success overnight because it was the first release post PS2 in a mainstream consoles/pc and they focused hard in graphics and story at the time. got a ton of normalfags into the series. wilds unfortunately is barely playable in modern hardware, a common case of modern development being a joke. got people mad at the game and a lot refused to buy it
>>719621397on the left: a visual piece of shiton the right: a good looking woman.... hard to guess which game is still alive.
>>719640803The least biased post of all time
I mean I also saw the devs say that the response to the Wilds story was positive when it was forced, barebones, and retarded.
>>719660951still true tho
>>719661118maybe in opposite land
Fucking no one played MH for the story why is Capcom so out of touch?
>>719661250World gave them the wrong ideas.
>>719661250Blame this fucking retard
>>719660626How else would you measure the success of a video game?
tick tock ryozo, you know you have to rerelease the older games on modern platforms if you want to save the franchise. As much as you want to bury them, you will come back crawling and begging
>>719660626to be fair the game has title updates that do need resources as they are free updates. not only that but since games take forever to make they need the current ones to last
>>719661346But how, everyone complained that the requirement of World's monster introduction videos and how you had to do them solo before getting to play MP was awful, and then everyone liked how Rise MP was just fast and easy.
>>719661506>Every other capcom series (mostly) has had their older games ported and remastered to every platform available >Despite MH being literally one of their most profitable series (until wilds kek) we still have no pre world collections ports or remastersWtf is his problem
> world takes 7 months to sell 5 million> wilds takes 1 month to sell 10 million'wow guys looks like wilds is a flop
>>719661749World sold 6 millions on its opening and then 2 millions on its first quarter.
>>719661718They believe it cuts into their live service profits I think remastered games will come, specifically because wilds is underperforming pretty badly. It’s an extremely easy way for them to save a quarter or two
>>719622621it sold 10 million copies niggerthe game is dogshit but it's not a flopCapcom lost a lot of fans goodwill with Wilds though. The next game is fucked. Probably 50% sales of Wilds
>>719661749Yea, that's how live service games flop.
>>719661749>world continues selling millions after launch because it’s good >wilds almost completely stops selling after launch because it’s shit
>>719658334Kojimbo shouldn't be making games himself anymore but here we are
dont worry guys rise 2 is coming
>>719661749Wilds isn't even gonna outsell base riseScreencap you fucking shit eating jeet
>>719661934Yeah it sold ten mill? So what? That’s fucking garbage for wilds. GTA selling 20 mil would be an ET level flop. It’s all relative this isn’t an indie game this is capcom’s biggest budget game ever that’s the sequel to their highest selling game ever
>>719661972The move that ruined Hammer
>me chinese>me make joke>me review bomb wilds
>>719662065Japanese reviews are very telling thoughbeit Monhun used to be state religion over there
>>719662065>review bombThey are the only fuckers playing wilds. Even today it peaked in prime time China at 27k right now it’s at fucking 8kFor reference fallout fucking 4 has 15k. China is carrying wilds
>world 2it was never going to be world 2
Time for Rise chads to carry the series on its back. Again.
>>719661749see >>719659984
you know if you are too lazy to upgrade your pc after 2 betas and a benchmark you can just buy a switch 2 now lol
>>719662325Read the room ranjesh, this post right here is a microcosm of why wilds failed
>>719660785>lucked in to releasing in a an absolutely dead period early that year and picked up a bunch of wannabe multiplayer casuals larping as sweeties who spread the game via word of mouth to other casualsthe insane marketing and good word of mouth from previous fans did considerably more for launchWhat you're describing just gave the game legs
>>719662325>Using frame genThe true brown poster is you
>>719662065>mixed>mixed>mixed>mixed>see guy just the chinese dislike itthey're also the biggest player base in this game. guess the game is bad since it's chink shit
>>719661718>>719661839God I want a proper PC port of GU with mods and the community. Heaven forbid it's affects Milds sales cause its just killing it out there month after month.
>>719662281>b...but world has TOP TIER black dragons.....
>>719661749And how many copies has it sold since that 10 million?yeah exactly
>>719660785World was always going to succeed. Monster hunter was always well regarded by people who a really played it (well prior to wilds). The fact it was coming to console and PC not held back by being on a portable system set it up got instant success.Like brother, it’s not a fluke the best video game series has success. It’s also not a fluke when any long running great series has a turd or two.
>>719661250Some worldfags unironically did play for the story and cinematics.
>>719662514Only reason I haven’t started any new playthroughs is I can feel the remastered coming
>>719662743Then why wilds is suferring if it double down in everything world did?
>>719662281at this point i legitimately hope crapcom gets too cocky, doubles down, releases wilds 2, and sinks even lower
>>719662760Must be bait.
>>719621397PS5 claims another victim.When will devs learn?
The year is 2037. Monster Hunter Wilds has sold its 12 millionth copy. An Indian exclaims it did the needful and did not flop because it sold ten mil in in a week before he or his 17 brothers were born.
>>719652181this
>>719662843Because that’s not what happened. No one played world and ever said >you know I want more handler cutscenes
PS5 forced them to make the most dogshit areas the series has ever had? Damn dude
>>719662843People wanted world 2 not some half baked alpha tech demo version of world. It’s like world 0.3
>>719662843Because World was carried hard by newfags getting a taste of their first MH game. Which is why all the soulsfaggots, such as fextra faggots, were there trying to stake their claim.Some tried it, played it for a few hours, and fucked off forever, but crapcom still got their money. Others stuck around for longer and then never got Iceborne. Others were there for the whole experience and will never play another MH game again because it can't compare to their first.Point being is that World gets treated with kid gloves because of this. Flaws overlooked and only experienced with rose colored glasses despite sharing many flaws with Wilds.Wilds doesn't get this benefit, and once the shills scurried off for the next FOMO there's no one to defend this unfinished game with poor performance and gameplay.
>>719662056What was the budget for Wilds? you niggers sure seem to know everything so link it up.
>>719663524well I am having an absolute blast, personally
>>719661934>aktually next game won’t sell wellsure bro, this time for certain right.
>>719663534Bingo.
>>719661384Whether it's good or not and well regarded by players? Of course, Wilds would be a failure in every sense since the players hate it and Crapcom hates it.
>>719663534>can i get the monster hunter game for hardcore dark souls players???
>>719663889What an awful samefag
>>71966245095% of 4U or gens fans fucking hated it anonI was there
>>719664021let me guess MH was hardcore only when on a handheld? get real faggot lmao.
>>719663939most popular monster hunter on steam bro, world cant even compete with it i guess its hard being a retarded tranny faggot
>>719663534>they played for a few hours and fucked offWorld took months and months and months and months and months and months to get where wilds fell
>>719661619The game made its budget back many times over. Ongoing development is much, much cheaper than developing an entire product from scratch so they could easily afford to keep developing this game for years at no expense to the players. They choose to be jews because why not?
Give meCUNNY
>>719664109>i guess its hard being a retarded tranny faggotYou seem like an expert. Why don't you tell us?
>>719664067i'm talking how good word of mouth for the franchise fuelled the initial hype
