We live in a timeline where new copies of the most recent MH game ended up in the discount bin less than one year after its release for just 5 dollars, MH is now shovelware tier.
monster hunter was always shovelware
I would say "oh hopefully Crapcom will learn from this" but because it IS Crapcom I know they won't.
How bad is 900 yen in dollars?
>>7260216565 dollars.
Yeah, Crapcom is a mess.
>>726021716Damn, thats fucked up
>>726021343Japan is known for big price drops and good used game prices.
>>726021643Capcom is publicly traded. It's bound to end up the same way as Ubisoft
>>726021343Monster Hunter was never good
>>726021343Imagine going from the enormous success of World and Rise to this lmao
>>726021919>Japan is known for big price drops and good used game prices.
>>726021919Less than a year after release? A 90% off? Nah, that only games to failures that the shop can't sell.
>>726022351*Only HAPPENS to...
>>726022262>6680 yen>less than $45>for an over 20 years old game people consider as collectibleIsn't that ridiculously cheap? I've seen an original DKC2 OST CD for 250000 yen.
>>726022262>>726022351
>>726022262apparently it is discounted because of damagen to the package/manual and the paper map is missingnot sure how much though
>>726022854ToTK is already 2 years old, also where is the date? The MH one was discovered two days ago.https://x.com/ChoCoBi_3150/status/1989198243025260995?t=lJVgBC62hGIzPSYtXY_-kQ&s=19
>>726022854>Almost 3 years old game>Is still more expensive>It's an auctionlmao you tried so hard to defend Capcom's honor
>>726022854>>726023351Also forgot>A single copy instead of an entire bargain bin
base game is on its last legs anyway. dlc announcement coming in jeffs birthday party few months
>>726021343apologize
>>726023517Why? This is one of the reasons why Wilds is failing so hard.
>>726021343>less than one year after its releaseZoomies confused over the idea of games not lasting for decades and think it must be a failure if it doesn't have the lifespan of Fortnite or Minecraft.There used to be a time when people bought the game, played it, then moved on.
>>726023517I love how much it bombed afterwards proving his retarded statement wrong
some people on here ACTUALLY looked at wilds and thought "yeah, looks good ill BUY IT"fucking insane
>>726023793>absolute niggerbrain doesn’t know how MH worksPottery.
>>726023793The issue is nobody is buying the game so retailers have to get rid of the sulprus of copies they ordered based on performance of World and Rise.
>>726023824It's Monster Hunter, what can you do to make people who like the series hate it?Sure, you could put in a boring story with an annoying character and that shitty brand of melodramatic japanese writing. You could make the hunts boring. You could make the game run like hot garbage. But what kind of shitty company would mismanage one of their big IPs this hard?
>>726022262>>726022667The US dollar is actually really strong against the yen last I looked into it. The idea that Tokyo has super high rent prices is mostly a myth if you compare them to US rent. Things will be considerably cheaper for most things if you're spending your money in Japan rather than Burger land.
>>726023153>>726023351I don't know the release dates off hand because I have no horse in this race. Monster Hunter is indeed quite shit. I also picked listing from other games I don't like.
>>726024129Anon, those are AUCTIONS, they don't make Wilds' situation look better.
Let's be real here: Wilds slopping and flopping is the best thing that could happen to MH. Capcom always goes through this with their IP's. Release shit game, it backfires, they have to go back to the drawing board and improve. RE, DMC, SF etc
>>726024226Except that when it happened to BN and SF they just killed the series.
>>726024226>sf6 is shit>dmc5 is shituhhh
>>726024384The fact that they gauged Star Force's future based on the sales of a shitty Battle Network 1 port is absolutely psychotic.
>>726024494What? No, they ended SF because the shitty performance of SF2.
>>726024129Except Japanese STORES are the ones offering deals below Japanese eBay.
>>726023824honestly what would monster hunter franchise need other than stable framerate and performance? the only remotely good graphic one was world and it ruined wilds, as in, capcom learned a wrong lesson from it.
>>726021343B,but it’s the best monster hunter game says it’s 12 autistic fans and the paid jewtuber shills! Just ignore it sold well and then fell off a cliff in player numbers(which has NEVER happened to a MH game before). Seriously it’s incredible how bad the team fumbled this game. Expected though desu after DD2
I think the level of "plot" and how it was presented to you was perfectly show in Rise, that is the level of "plot" mainline MH should have.
>>726024564It was revealed later that it was due to SF3 selling half of what 2 did and because the BN1 port hit the bargain bin a week after launch.
>>726023517based Ryozo selling shovelware for appropriate prices.Maybe they reached the points where they want to cover up bad sales at any point>>726025028Rise story was dumb only salvaged by being short, had cute girls and you could just skip all of it
>>726023517Has a game director ever been more BTFO that this before?
>>726025363SF3 sold baldy because SF2 made people mad, it was a BN4 situation again.
>>726024072Have in mind that the average wage most people earn is less than 2k dollars, so 45$ is a pretty penny compared to the US.More or less the same shit as in southern and eastern europe and the 80€ game prices, most of these countries earn wages in the 1000s not like germany and france, so it's actually a lot of money for them compared to other northen european countries.
>>726024072Euro tourism is booming in japan cause everything costs jack shit there.
>>726021343Rise killed Monster hunter
>>726024226You're partially right, it's a good thing because they deserve it, but don't expect any improvements from current Crapcom, maybe if this happened around World's release they would improve because back then they actually tried to improve, but now they are completely hopeless.
>>726021343This is exactly why you don't modernize your franchise to appeal to westerners
>>726026108But.. but...IT WORKED WITH WORLD!
>>726023880people dont typically put hundreds/thousands of hours into a MH game until the G-rank comes out
>>726026394>hundredstalk for yourselfG-rank is overrated. I don't care about sticking around after beating the most challenging content when I know there is nothing more to come. It's only getting easier from there
>>726026394The issue is people don't want to put any hours into Wilds.
I wish pc games got discounts like this . id definitely try it at that price
Most games are like this now, I buy them at launch physical, complete them then sell on ebay for around 80% of my money back.
>>726026715Playing videogame just to overcome "hard" content once seems wastefulThere are more interesting options to explore, more playstyles to refine Doing what you do is like ordering one burger from the menu and claiming you're "done" with the restaurant
>>726027568>food comparisonno that would be eating everything on the menu and then ordering the same stuff to test the consistency of the food.
>>726026791I put 200 hours into it pretty easily after the 9 star hunts came out.
>>726025951Rise is the only good Monster Hunter snoygger
It's true the only reason Rise got shitposted so hard was because console war reasons?
>>726028436Partially, but it's also an uglier more anime game So it was assaulted from multiple fronts by consolefags, graphicsfags and boomerfags
>>726021643They will learn from this... For about 10 minutes when they will release one half decent game, then they will immediately go back to making trash for 5 years straight, as they usually do.
>>726029138Rise looks better than World from a character look perspective. Hell, i am sure the dragon twins where specifically designed to be the antithesis of the Handler.
Why couldn't they make the game in the same style of MHS3? Wilds just looks like a muddy blurry mess
>>726029375With tweaks and situationally you can make rise look pretty nice, but out of the box it does look much uglier than world even if the handler is more fuckable
>>726029563because they learned a wrong lesson from world.
>>726029563Because the "wind waker situation" that would rise would be apocalyptic.
>>726029662Don't reply to me ever again.
>>726029823Can you set up a tripcode so I know who to avoid :))))
>>726029563Nah mh used to have a very distinct artstyle before world and i rather want to see next mh game in frontier,3u,gu like graphics
>>726026108Retarded weeb.
>>726022262>traderPretty pricey unless you want imported editions (the only reason I drop by it at least once a week.)Akihabara is a tourist trap, and in the last couple of years prices skyrocketed.
>>726021343That's a good thing though.Anyone who wanted to buy the game now can get it for super cheap before the final title update drops in December, and the console version is at least more optimized than the PC version
>>726030829not really, it depends on the item. It's like any reselling platform.Akihabara is still for the most part dirt cheap for any western tourists and the prices can be pretty random. If you are not retarded and have some time you still can find good prices for most stuff. Doesn't mean shops won't try to sell stuff to tourists for huge premium
>>726021343Hasn't this situation happened to Capcom like tow tomes before already?
>>726021343Crapcom tranny shills lose once again
>>726021643>>726029357A lot of parasites in MH team will be unemployed if they don't perpetuate the lie that the story is what makes MH good.
>>726023517Yes, he should, for making such a shit game.
>>726024069It only took one look at what they did with DD2 and then putting 2 and 2 together after the beta... Or the benchmark. Perhaps even before both, when they didnt even have hitstop and had to be told by the community to put it back in.
>>726021343nice bro you should get a copy for the next title updates bro it will be a blast for sure
>>726021343ah, the Capcom cycle is a wonderous phenomenon
This whole discourse is so silly. The expansion will come out, you will buy it and paly it. or what, are you quitting MH? What ongoing franchise is better?
>>726021343Did they finally fix the performance?
>>726035828No
>>726024384BN and SF was never goodThe fuck would they go back to, BN1? BN4? Don't make me laugh
>>726035771I'd rather pay 500 dollarinos on Kirby Air Ridersthen sell the console at a small loss
>>726029718i think capcom should just not give a fuck what consumers think then. they already don't!
>>726036546Same. I was able to sell my entire Switch library 5 years down the line with, like, a 10% loss. Those idiots hoarding Pokémon cards should use this as currency instead.
PORT PRE WORLD MH NOW!!!!!
>>726036705And cannibalize our current MH playerbase? Plus setting up servers for defunct games? NEVER!
>>726035828theres nothing wrong with the performance
>>726030829I got a Lucky Star PS2 game that has all deluxe edition stuff still in its packaging from there. It was like 2500 yen iirc and any listing I can find online in similar condition is around 3 or 4 times the price.
>>726035771>or what, are you quitting MH?Yeah, I might replay FU at some point in the future but I'm not planning to buy another MH.>What ongoing franchise is better?Non, I will simply spend more time and money on plamo.
>>726037472"Plamo"?
>>726021343I remember mh4 was selling brand new for 1200 yen in 2014, not even a year after release. This was before mh4g came out. Pretty sure every mh game has gone on deep discount just before the complete version comes out, I remember cross was available for cheap a few months after it came out as well.
>>726037537plapping mothers
>>726037537Plastic models, I'm currently waiting for my snake to arrive.
>>726037537He's referring to models.>>726021343I called it hundreds of times during Shitcoms original announcement. It will sell gangbusters at launch month then drop off a fucking cliff because of the previous games success.>Publicly traded company on their own site announces they are going all in to make a DEI MH and want to focus on inclusive characters and more streamlined gameplay to get more people into the series>Milds trailer was a fucking title card instead of showing large monsters and weapons like every other game in the series>Everything about the BETA and all their games in development post 2020 were extremely ugly and woke>Constant Demakes being shat out with many being outsourced to China and India using AI (Dead Rising etc)>Its fucking Crapcom, the company that is one of the most anti consumer and shitty AAA studiosYou had to be pretty fucking retarded to think Milds was going to be good.
>>726037684I got World absurdly cheap right before Iceborne's release. Rise was different because the PC release happened close to Sunbreak's release.
>>726021343LMAO
>>726035828They didnt, but they did introduce more crashes!
>>726021343Im gonna buy it
>>726035771>you will buy it and paly it.I won't.>Or what, are you quitting MH?Don't need to, I still have RiseBreak, the 3ds titles, P3rd and FU on my PC to play for as long as I feel like, don't really need to worry about running out of MonHun anytime soon.
>>726021343This is fault of Nata.
>>726038004Rise was 25 bucks the bundle with the expansion upon its pc and real consoles release.
>>726030627Why did wilds flop so badly then? Retarded secondary tourist
>>726041548>flop keep on coping bro lmao if you faggots repeat this enough times on a daily basis it might just come true bro
>>726021343All crapcom had to do was make a monster hunter game, the most forumulaic franchise in the world but they fucked it up 3 games in a row. No one wanted infinite camp restocking, vigorwasp delivery, mount evasion, mount restocks, focus mode, open world, MMO shit.
>>726041690>it might just come truethanks for confirming shill
If your game isn't on phones or switch, it might as well not exist in japan.
>>726041895confirming what bro? that you are a seething mind broken buck broken nigger? keep on praying to your science gods for the le flop and crapcums downfall broif you faggots truly believed it was a flop you wouldnt need to reinforce your cope on a daily basis with the same faggots regurgitating the same hopium. MH Wilds is a blast bro, hunts like the 9 star quests and omega are the most fun the series has ever been. see you next title update bro.
>>726021343Full circle. Back to its roots as a niche game. Except it's much enshitified now.
MHWorld is still the best, because of limited story, maximum gameplay, and it (eventually) ran 60fps solid on PS5.DD2 and MHWilds is gay. Because it fucks these up.
>>726021739Do SF characters really walk around in their own world thinking, "Damn, this really do be Street Fighter 6"?
>>726042461both those games are a blast bro and works great on my machine (ps5 base model)
>>726042461>because of limited storyIt had unskipable cutscenes and a retard spotlight stealer character that next to everyone finds annoying.
>>726024069>what can you do to make people who like the series hate it?Wilds. But really only for that game. Optimistic about the next portable.
>>726021739I just realized SF6 is basically Jump Force with a higher budget.
I know /v/ loves its doomerism, but fact is japan has made itself more and more irrelevant over time when it comes to non-nintendo consoles. At the time when World released, japan was barely relevant.
>>726042461World doesn't even have monster hunter gameplay.
>>726042752it will probably run at 15fps on your kiddie tablet bro just like rise lmaowait until it grts a pc or real console release bro
>>726042882I played World and Rise AND Wilds on my PC you pitiful sunken cost retard. Wilds G will not de-shit the game.
>>726043094k bro see you next title update and remember this cope once the expansionis released, dont forget it bro
>>726021343>over 100 posts and no one has pointed that this is obviously just fucking fakeIs /v/ the dumbest board?
>>726042840Don't cut yourself
>>726043891/v/ is an engagement farm now.
>>726021343not even the collab with DOTA 2 saved this game?
>>726043891>>726043964Wait this might actually be real wtf. That's bizarre. Normally this only happens to unplayable disasters like NMS or F76. They must be sitting on shipments that are 6+ months old. I knew the post-launch sales were bad but I didn't think they were THAT bad.
>>726042840>actually the game is selling millions its just the Japanese play on their phones daddy corpo is just sandbagging their numbers
>>726044313Yes, we have threads showing famitsu and other numbers anon. If a game isn't on phones or switch, it doesn't sell over there.
>>726044313Are you retarded it hit 10 million in the first month. It just stopped selling after that.
>>726043945Physical games are dying in general, anon.
>>726043891>is fake!It's not.
I've been a long time Monhun fan, before there were even English translationsPlaying the Wilds beta turned me off completely on it. I was going to buy it until I played the beta. It was just too easy.
>>726044631>People would rather buy $60 digital than $6 physicalIt shows neither is selling and that's exactly what's reflected in Capcom's reports
>>726044685Nigga it was the first 2 monsters and a rey dau which you probably didn't even fight
>>726044531No its actually still selling millions
>>726044820Is it really though? Because a consistent trend I see online is that most people vocally unhappy with the game are overwhelmingly pc gamers, while console players don't seem to have as much issue.
>>726045095It hasn't sell another million in six months, to compare both world and rise sold 4 millions more each in the same timeframe.
>>726021343Sad, but deserved.Shame that the tremendous HH moveset is stuck there. Iceborne just became a spin2win weapon.
>>726045208Nope. Its selling millions on consoles in the West. Its not 5 dollars physical in the West and people are still lining up to purchase it physical and digital. Milds won, you lost.
It still hasn't hit 11M after 9 months. Yes, it was THAT bad.
>>726045327Did you own the libs yet
>>726045286feel the same about gunlance, such a fun yet simple movesetwell, at least I have the fun as fuck blast dash moveset in rise
>>726045638MAGGATS won't save Milds
>>726044297They dropped like a rock like two weeks after launch. Its why Capcom is floundering about trying to do anything to garner interest in the game since they planned on it to carry them for the whole year.
Is true that Capcom has completely abandoned Nata after it was clear that people either hate or didn't give a shit about him?
>>726022163T-Ten million s-sales...
>>726045993He's in every TU scene
I really don't understand why the sales had ZERO tail. Oh the performance and story were bad nigga World had dogshit pc performance when it came out too and the story was also bad. And wilds still sold another 2 million in the first month after people knew about the performance and story.I'm almost willing to believe that capcom just pulled off the most successful marketing campaign in history and hooked every potential customer from the start.
>>726045993He just sits at your tent collecting the farm stuff, and has not shown up anywhere else after the story. No holiday costumes, no new dialogue, nothing.
I miss the oldschool aesthetics, character designs, and monster designs more than anything else.I would be willing to put up with some of the casualization of World-onwards if the new games weren’t so fucking UGLY>>726046142They just bribed youtubers to hype it up and not mention any of the negative qualities, when people found out how anemic the experience actually is sales dropped hard.
>>726046142It’s not that hard to understand the game is really fucking bad. Like every aspect >story >performance >art style/graphical fidelity >music >amount of content >gameplay Also their marketing was a double edged sword. They sponsored basically every single CC imaginable, fucking sub 1k sub 10 view mother fuckers were getting sponsored.What this means is that, all these CCs don’t want to fuck up a partnership with one of the biggest publishers in the industry, so instead of making negative content which in theory still keeps the game in the public zeitgeist, it’s complete radio silence. If a chat member brings it up or some shit they will try to pivot immediately to again, not risk “alienating” capcom. The other thing is, humans as a whole do not enjoy the act of pretending to enjoy something. It’s like a humiliation ritual, so they’d rather not bring it up ever.
>>726046397>anemic the experience actually isOoooh it's retards that only played after iceborne and sunbreak got all their updates and they got mad it didn't have more monsters
>>726046638Anemic as in, “the entire LR is a walk and talk simulator”, not an actual lack of content. Some of the best games in the series had little content at launch, this is much different
>>726046556The only place I see criticism of gameplay and other aspects is /v/, literally everywhere else nobody cares about anything other than performance.
>>726046638>Actually every base game sucks and had no content and bad gameplay like Milds; you just played 4 years after the release
>>726046843Good morning sar
>>726046971That wasn't an opinion, it was an observation, retard.
>>726046556You live in a /v/ bubble. Normies (95% of those 10 million sales) do not give a flying fuck about the music or art style. Performance and story as mentioned were bad in World too. Again the gameplay differences aren't big enough for normies to notice, really they only tend to notice when games get too hard for them. So the only thing on that list that would actually affect sales is the amount of content and oh would you look at that it has ONE less monster World at launch.So it's literally just this >>726046638
>>726046843It’s the exact opposite, this is the only place that pretends the performance is the only thing wrong with the game. World had shit performance too. Didn’t have the largest sales drop off in the history of the industry like wilds did
>>726047106>normie Good morning sar, your game is complete shit
>>726046867Yes, you retard. One, Tri, Gen, World, Rise, Wilds are the base games we got and every one has had complaints compared to the updated versions we used to get that skip over base.
>>726047106Look at the post under you. You don’t make any sense (because you an ESL third worlder).Normalfaggots don’t care about performance. World’s best selling platform was PS4, that PEAKED at 30 fps and was constantly a cinematic 20-25 fps. Normalfags don’t give a fuck about fake frames framegen. Normalfags (and everyone that isn’t a seething tranny) liked world, because world was a good game even despite the ass performance.Wilds, is not a good a game, simple as
>>726046785>muh walkingWorld had that too. Is there some fucking critical mass of walk and talks where people suddenly notice and care? Like oh 10 minutes of time wasting across 15 hours is fine but if you hit 14 minutes suddenly everyone has a meltie.
>>726021343>nowmonster hunter has always been Japan's call of duty tier annual garbage
>>726047249>Actually all the games were bad so Milds being bad is actually good
>>726047362This pajeet shill is so pathetic. Yeah, world had a single quest that was the Wilds style Walk and Talk. The wildspire wastes introduction. A quest literally nobody liked, yet wilds decided to turn every single story quest and base it on this one single quest in world that nobody liked.And the funny part? That one quest in World is still better than wilds. You get ambushed by a non-quest Rathian, and guess what? You can actually hunt it! In FAGGOT ASS wilds, it wouldn’t let you because “le guild hasn’t le authorized you”
>>726047462Kill yourself, secondary. You don't play the games and your opinions about a series you don't play do not matter.
>>726047249Saaaar these games that people all like are actually shit like wilds which no one likes saaaar that mean redeem wilds please saaar
>>726047586>actually nobody plays the games everyone started with IB on PC in 2021 I started with FU
>>726047586>you don’t think every game is shit like wilds?>BLOODY BITCH BENCHOD And you wonder why the game has zero sales last launch this is the advertising for it
>>726047309>brings up jeets and ESLs out of nowhere>proceeds to make the most ESL post I've ever fucking seenYou're from a discord right? Like I have to assume there's some jeet discord seething that their PC's are too shit to run Wilds so they're shitting on it in these threads and are telling each other 'yes deeprit if they disagree say sar(sic) it work everytime'
>>726021739Zesty...
>>726047447this is obvious to most people but /v/ treats it like a sacred cow series because it has lolis and Nintendo cosmetics for your reddit cat
>>726047781Isn't it ironic how the Indian projectors/posters all come off as outright incapable of even understanding what they are responding to?
>>726047557lol you didn't play World
>>726047781>filename>gifESL
Had a lot of fun with Wilds but I was just too burnout on the series before it came out. Thinking about coming back now that I've been monster hunter free for about 6 months but can't because I don't have 130gb of space free
>>726047781Only third worlders say normie in 2025
>>726047932that seems to be you in this case
Holy shit dude just stop you are fooling NO ONE.
>>726046556how did they manage to make the worst and at the same time most expensive soundtrack. Rise wasn't all that great, but at least it has the Dango and credits song.
>>726021343>MH is now shovelware tier.Of course it is, they released like 30 games in 20 years. What else could you even call it?
>>726048248How in the world is it the worst? Rise literally ruined a lot of its themes including existing ones with that forced woman wailing in almost every song.
I’m sure Capcom really cares about fat chuds
Didn't the game sell really good though
>>726048516That's right Milds sisters just look at how good Mizus theme is! Truly a return to form
>>726048629No, it sold mega shit
>>726048629Amazing opening week, catastrophic drop after it.
>>726048629Yeah its the best selling game in the series right now and is outpacing Morld and Rice.
>>726048640Those are both flawed in different ways, trying to make it exclusively about Milds is low iq behavior and just a deflection/distraction that reveals your own bias.
>>726048895Saaar every game is shit like milds saaar
>>726048895>Actually Milds is Rise 2
>>726021343>All they have to do is make a good game.
>>726048895>how dare you say wilds is bad don’t know you [other game in the series] is just as le bad “No”
>>726048943
>>726048629dmc5 outpaced it sustained sales.
>>726021919Yeah. there's always one of you retards that pretends to be a Japan expert. In what fucking world does it make sense for a new game to be $5 you fucking nonce.
>>726049154Don’t even need to check the filename to sniff out a bot post on this one
>>726049049That you are a secondary, yes.
>>726048702>>726048801>>726049234How much do the sustained sales actually matter? I mean, I can't imagine it didn't make all the investment back and then someThey did go pretty hard with the marketing though, I wonder if they spent such a fuckton on shit that doesn't even matter that it made a dent in profits
>>726048516*how in the wildsit's just completely unfocused. There is barely any leitmotif, they just switch everything up every 10 seconds. It doesn't sound like you are listening to music, just dramatic set pieces.It may sound momentarily good but overall very forgettable.
>>726049335The bulk sales aren’t even good
>>726035574I think my biggest problem with Wilds, and this extends to World too, the color palette is dog shit. Rise has that problem too, but due to being built on a handheld they had to skimp out on background details to make sure everything's readable. Thing is you put that on a PC, up the textures and framerate and Rise looks fantastic (with dogshit lighting but still). Every screen shot I take in Wilds looks awful, almost kind of stunning. And we know the game has access to saturated colors like in Scarlet Forest, but it still manages to look washed out and downright ugly. Makes me glad I put my hunter in bright yellow and black because he actually sticks out from the backdrops and everything going on.
>>726021343most games today are meant to be sold on hype alone.if you generate enough hype it doesn't matter on the quality of the game since people will still buy it, all you need to do is once in a while release an actual good game to keep the retards in your customer base and you basically just generate infinite income
>>726049335>How much do the sustained sales actually matter?dmc5 is a singleplayer game that was done in 2019.mhwilds is a multiplayer online game thats getting constant updates and has a humongous ongoing team.
>>726021343and G rank isn't even out holy shit how did they fuck up so horribly
>>726049335A lot because capcom had no premier releases for any of the following quarters and this basically fucked their entire fiscal year
>>726021343Be fair monster Hunter has not been good since GU
>>726049234People unironically need to stfu about DMC5 sales - Its the fast capcom game in 20 years to straight up plummet in price. I bought it on psn for 5 bucks less than 6 months after release.Everyone owns a copy of dmc5, shit has been FREE since before corona even started.
>>726049395Sorry anon I'm going to disregard everything you have to say about aesthetics when that's how you dress your hunter.
>>726049335They are prioritizing cosmetic DLC instead of fixing the game; you tell me.
>>726049449Monster Hunter Wilds sold less than World, World sold 23 million and Wilds sold 11 million on hype then run out of gas because hype only gets you so far
>>726049335it matters to investors whose dicks you have to continuously suck. It looked like Wilds was going to be the best selling MH title. At its current pace Wilds will struggle to overtake Rise.
>>726049561GU is a bloated fillerfest and a good argument for why most games in the series don't just load up with every monster.
>>726049583Milds is 5 bucks
>>726049621Anon you did not just say that shit in 2025.
>>726035574>I took me a solid 10 seconds to know if this is mhwilds or mhworldThat says a lot about this game's optmization/graphics
>>726049583itsuno left capcom a while back and they're still getting royalties from his game
>>726049621This is a very stupid statement and always will be.
>>726049807>>726049890is it cool to like cosmetic dlc now
>>726049858Its an objective reality that is happening. They are more concerned with loading the game with cosmetic DLC and haven't fixed the game. Sorry daddy corpo doesn't love you
>>726049651Wilds hasn't even reached 11 millions, is hast 10 654 000 something.
>>726049395youre crazy bro Wilds and DD2 unironically have the best looking lighting I have seen in vidya I will agree that taking a screenshot when its a fallow weather it doesnt look as flashy although dont look bad neither, but in movement it looks absolutely amazingfighting arkveld for example while theres a sandstorm and hes setting the grass on fire and using dragon attacks looks cool afas does fighting rey dau at night specially in his nestalso the character and monsters models look better than ever and the grand hub is beautiful
>>726049395Second to this >>726049395Jesus fucking Christ, what the fuck is thatBtw, mhworld only looks bad if you have the soulless gas on
>>726050004No, you smoothbrain. The fact is that even if you stopped the people making the cosmetic shit, they won't magically turn into people who can work on the engine/performance. You just have a bunch of artists now sitting doing nothing.
>>726049651and it has sold 11 millions units, comfirming what i said, you just need hype to generate money.now they have to release a better game to make retard believe they haven't lost their touch and then do it again.simple as.
>>726050229if they stop paying the artists to make retarded bullshit maybe they can pay people other than retarded jeets to code the game
>>726050282>>726050095
>>726050282 That’s the whole scam, anon. They blast the first wave with marketing and nostalgia bait, front-load sales with hype, and then patch together a justification with half-assed DLC and vague dev promises. By the time people realize the game’s mid, Capcom’s already sold 10 million and moved on to the next bait cycle. It’s not about making the best game anymore-it’s just dopamine farming with a Monster Hunter skin.
>>726050282you /v niggers cry and piss your skirts about how supposedly the series is too casual (although never showing your best time in hunts) while simultaneously shitting your panties that the game didnt sell a bagazillion copies to every normie fag in the world.you faggots dont even know wut you want bro you just wanna seethe lmao10+ million copies at full price btw, will remind you again so you can keep coping
>>726049591Gunner armor is never returning so I'll take what I can get. Beggars can't be choosers as they say.
>>726049890>Actually cosmetic DLC priority is a good thing!
>>726050420>10 654 000 approx.yeah, not a big change from the 11 millions, they still didn't made a loss on it.
>>726050647They are entirely different groups working on different things.
>>726050513uh yes, thanks for saying exactly saying what i just said earlier, but ok>>726050582and you too, thanks for just confirming that games can be sold on hype alone no matter the quality
>>726050385Really nigga?
>>726050817>Actually TU4 will fix it!
>>726050848so what youre saying is “aktually next game wont sell well”? lmao see you in the expansion bro
>>726050852yeaproducing cosmetic dlc is a waste of their money when the game itself is shitty, there's no excuse
>>726023517Return the franchise to KANAME, producers like ryozo are just leeches anyway. Producers shouldn't influence the development.
>>726051184well…Im having a blast
>>726051184More time than money. There are retards ITT that are paying 8 bucks a pop for 240p texture earrings.
>>726050282You would be right if they did it on purpose with proper budgeting, but it was 100% accident and the next game will be just as dogshit, so they will be lucky if the game sell even 5mln copies and since production cost will grow as there is no way they won't, unless the mobage will perform on pair with UMA they are in fact cooked.
>>726049796You can buy a used physical copy for a console that’s discontinued its disk drive lol
>>726051513>aktually next game wont sell well lol lmao!
I like that the discord stopped trying to use Nightrein to shitpost since Wilds has more players now
>>726051184Overpriced cosmetics have amazing ROI because they cost nothing to produce and retards will always buy them.Overpriced cosmetics make money.Money which can then be spent on hiring people to optimise the engine.Money which they already had because they're fucking Capcom and weren't operating on a small budget to begin with.I can handle the shitty opinions but please can you faggots stop being so fucking STUPID.
>>726046638I don't care about the monster count. That's not an issue for me. What is is the lack of shit to actually DO. All the optional quests are just your story quests along with killing whatever minion tripe the game gives you. Wilds has the outright blandest quest offerings in a Monster Hunter game because all the hunts are procedurally generated. And if you want to hunt something and it's not the map? Though shit, have an investigation, or the SOS board for a shmuck that does, take your pick. There's nothing unique like 'hunt Rey Dau and Nu Udra in the arena to prove yourself'. Hell Jin is secluded to his fucking set piece montage and can't be placed anywhere else. You don't even get the ability to hunt multiple monsters in one quest until near post-game... why? There's no curve ball quests or anything creative.Then there's the lack of overall gear to craft, and no this isn't a monster thing because Wilds focuses too much on the goddamn monsters when it comes to weapons and armor. We have this fuck huge maps and nothing worth doing in them. Nothing worth finding, gathering, you name it chances are you actually don't need to do it. Meanwhile we could've had exclusive weapon and armor materials strewn about the various landscapes to actually incentivize exploring. Why is speartuna GS the only joke weapon I can make that actually requires going out and actually catching fucking speartuna? Why can't I do the same with the cornpopper, the teddybear, any fucking thing in the laundry list of weapons not tied to monsters?
>>726051670My s o y station has a disc drive. Idk what to tell you bro just buy the game
>>726021739seeing this fills me with anger, I hope they crash and burnI 100% saw this before too and shut it out of my memory because it is unironically trauma at this point what they're doing to my video games
>>726052119I dont disagree but I don't think that has anything to do with the sales drop off because World was pretty similar in that regard wasn't it?
>>726052031they don't seem to be hiring people to optimize anything and are instead content on having the game be a piece of shit that they sell cosmetic dlc for and then eventually cash in on the g rank expansion
>>726052258Personally my favourite Crapcom moment was drag queen story hour; that actually topped all the bullshit they pulled in the 2010s with rootkits and attacking DMC fans
>>726052669You joke, but somehow that stuff is popular with people for who knows what reason. The fucking drag race show is one of the only things not being canned at Paramount.
>>726052524They can't 'just optimise it' because the structure of the game is fundamentally incompatible with the engine. They can't remove effects otherwise they'll get just as much bad press from the game looking worse as it did from running poorly.Yes they are a big company, and the fact that they developed and released a game with such fundamentally flawed performance is ridiculous, but what's done is done. The reality is it's a big problem that takes a lot of time to fix. Remember how Destiny 2 deleted half the game's content? That was because of issues with the engine.Shit on them all you like for letting it get to this point but don't be like 'duh why haven't they fixed it yet.'
>>726052119>Meanwhile we could've had exclusive weapon and armor materials strewn about the various landscapes to actually incentivize exploringDoesn’t actually play the game award
>>726052669dbd still does drag queen content, retarded fat women love it
>>726053224Played and seen more than enough, thanks for trying.
Retard
>>726053872Ok soWhich armor sets require rare materials scattered through the maps
>less than 300 hours in a monster hunter gameyou didn't actually play it
I don't understand why they had to make the people look realistic. Are the monsters realistic? Are the weapons realistic? Just make good looking chicks, you faggots.
>>726021919Used game prices have gone up because of retards from the west.
>>726022667That's damaged, a good copy can go for easily double that now. Before that's the price a good copy would cost.
>He doesn't have at least 2k hours in each base game and 1 WR TA with his main weapon
>>726054105They were gunning for Sony's The Last of Us audience
Monster hunter was never good
>>726049395>72 hoursLMAO fuck MH is DEAD
>>726054579some people manage to get all achievements sub 100 hoursWilds is that pathetic of a MH game
>>726049395>72 hours HR40>Piss yellow everythingDude what the fuck are you doing like I can respect unusual color preferences but even the bird?
>>726054683I think that has a lot to do with how you could use wounded hollow to cheese the crowns before they patched it.
>>726054683pig disgusting dog shiti may play it one day but the fact i could 180 true charge slash in the demo made me sick. i wouldve defended this series' honor with my life once upon a time
>>726054969you can join some discord groups to share crown quests. It's still a fucking joke, not an attest to harcore MH fags anymore.>>726055203you can a full 360 and probably more and you can do that for both hits on tcs.
>>726055203Having to commit to attacks is like, totally clunky, maaaan...
kinda crazy how I used to love jap games a decade ago but now all I feel towards them is disgust
Risebreak is undefeatedno fluff, no fancy graphics, no unskippable cutscenes, no key jingling for normies, just fast-paced fun
>>726055720Because they are targeting the West and getting DEI funding.
>>726055471bringing explosives to capcom HQ now
>>726055751base rise sucks sunbreak saved it
>>726056248Truth nuke
I got into this series in 2008 and witnessing its journey from niche to mainstream and ultimately ostracism was quite the ride. Was there a bigger fall from grace in these two decades? Maybe Final Fantasy but X was the last good one and it's 25 years old by now.
>>726056092>muh dei>in the same series that included a literal monsterphile even in the jap text and also the horrendous black fat woman in tri
>>726055720japs are just catching up to the west in degeneracy and streamlining. They are running out of audience as the younger generation and I mean 25yo and below is only playing phone games now.
>schizo spic with 3k images from his ps5 is still wasting his life defending the worst monhunLMAO this is literally his job
>>726054072Azuz, Sild and Suja, Death Stench is in there along with the butterfly sets. And that still isn't enough. There could've been more, a lot more. Same goes for weapons. Rise loaded us with this shit, why didn't Wilds?
>>726056776The worst monhun are 1, tri, and base gen though.
some random internet people do Capcom's job, once againhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOxLV2US4Ac
>>726057154Tri solo loc lac start is more fun than anything in wilds and i only know this because i played it after.
>>726057876I find that hard to believe with how tiny the roster was, and several weapons missing.
Can the expansion save it? Can the next entry from the portable team save it?
>>726056682>Actually the series was always woke and DEI funded with trannies!
>>726058178No. The next portable entry will sell like shit and then capcom will put MH in the dumpster with all their other dead series.
>>726058254>actually, I am a worthless retard who knows nothing at all about the series and can also only communicate using green text
>>726021343Monster Hunter is just old and busted Elden Ring, move on grandpa.
>>726058436>Actually the black character from Tri means its woke ! Not the fucking company itself announcing they will fully invest into DEI and Western ideologies with inclusivity. MH was always filled with trannies ! I'm not a tourist my first MH was FU!
>>726058607FACT
>>726058781How does it meaningfully change anything? From the start Monster Hunter has had multiple types of people in its world building. For the longest time, the message hammered in has been the same balance with nature hippie shit. And again, you continue to show you cannot communicate like a regular person, and insist on using green text to put imaginary words in other people's mouths.
>>726059173>Look at these black characters ! Buy Milds please its only 5 dollars please take me seriously !
>>726058178nah, it's dead
>>726059229thats not even artwork for Wilds but for the older games you retard secondary
>>726021343GOODfuck crapcom and their kike investors
>>726059420>stop talking about Milds you tourist; have I told you I started with FU !
>>726049049assuming they ordered it with asian on the left and western on the rightwhats wrong with the guy on the right? is he really annoying in the game or something? im sorry but i never played this series. i tried rise but it seemed very unfun after about 2 hours
>>726054743They're a homage to The Stingers from Jem and the Holograms. Their entire color scheme is black and yellow while my character, cat and bird are named based off the band members.
>>726043891cope shillnigger
>>726059629why did it include that file? i didnt select a file
I was gonna change my hunter into a girl cause the male armor sucks but then my friend said that would make my character a tranny and I couldn't really argue with his logic so I changed my mind
>>726059619Why are so fixated on FU, when nobody responding to you has said anything about it, let alone which game they actually started with? Is that part of your script?
>>726058785I guess the ER community is bigger because there is more to talk and speculate about and people who don't even play the game get invested about the lore bullshit.Nobody sane would care about MH without having played it
>>726059629>whats wrong with the guy on the right?>guy
>>726060426Correct; half the ER community only cares about their fanfic lore from the 10 hour essay video analyzing the moss formation on a boulder.
unoptimized mess doesn't deserve to be $5
>>726059427It has been like that ever since MH became a console wars hell.
>>726021343How is this game performance-wise?
>>726058785
>>726021343Where can I buy it for $5? Been wanting to try it.
>>726061283Japan.
They really need to add a hard mode to these games so low/high rank aren't boring facerolls for people who aren't new to the series.
>>726061283>>726061525Nani? It's $26.
>>726061751Isn't that 8 and 9 stars tempered?
>>726062017The photo is from a japanese retail store that put it in a discount bin because they can't get rid of it, you will never find it that cheap in amazon.
>>726062167I mean the whole damn game. Give me a reason to wear something besides un-upgraded bone armor for the entirety of low rank.
>>726055751The weak (Wilds) should fear the strong (Risebreak)
>>726052258faggot
why the fuck are modders better at making the game run well than fucking capcom after 8 months? installed 3 fucking mods and the game looks better and stops the stuttering. capcom is fucking embarassing
Did they fix fhe game on PC yet?
>>726063035The "performance" update is supposed be in December with the next title update.
>>726062017retard-sama...
>>726060869Only in the west. The least relevant part of the fanbase.
>>726057014>they don’t exist>ok they exist but there’s only 5Lol…
>>726062480>low rank (hard mode)Retarded
>>726063334how bad do you think the backlash will be if it doesnt fix it?
This shit is like Cyberpunk all over again
>>726064119I hope it's not because Cyberpunk managed to make everyo forgive them with just an Anime, Wilds doesn't deserve that (neither did Cyberpunk but I can't change the past).
>>726063756No clue. Can't say it impacts me much, as it was never that bad on my pc. The worst performing game I played this year was POE2 0.3 somehow, as it managed to tank my framerate down to 30 with framegen on during large enemy spawns.
>>726063002modders are white menwilds devs are jeets and dei hires
>Even people that liked World complain that the handler is an annoying retard that steals the spotlight.>Wilds double downs that with Nata, make him ever more annoying and basically make all the "main story" about him with you being just a plot device that moves the story forward.It feels like they made this out of spite for people taking shit of the handler, just like they added those unskipable walkalongs to spite people that hated World's unskipable cutscenes.
>>726021542FPBP. Garbage PSO clone.
>>726064503Japanese devs just suck at pc. I'm looking forward to Nioh 3, but am also dreading how it will run.
>>726064710most of the credits on milds are not even japanese names anon, calling it a japanse game is comicalmeanwhile actually japanese stuff like yakuza looks exponentially better while running on the goydeck despite how weak that ewaste is
>>726064632You speak as if entities that are not the monster, the handler and I are not annoying. The cats are annoying. The NPCs are annoying. The small monsters are annoying.
>>726064898This. World and Rise accelerated the rot by attracting people who care too much about stuff that doesn't matter. Hot npc characters are still distractions that take away from the core focus.
>>726064898>>726065167You guy talk like the annoying characters where easy to ignore, they aren't. The handler has unskipable cutscenes of her being retarded that you have to endure if you wanna hunt, Nata has unskipable walkalongs where you have to endure his yapping and the other two bitches shilling him.
>>726021343I guess Capcom must be furious.
>>726021343They didn't learn with BN4, they will not learn now.
>>726023824Anon, there's a board ON THIS VERY SITE dedicated to a series ran by mediocre developers who don't give enough of a shit to do decent work because they know whatever they shit out sells more than most series in their lifetimes.the /vp/ board if you didn't make the connection
>>726021343Monster hunter was always bad
>>726069393And Capcom thought that MH reached that level only to get fucked in the ass.
>>726029718I wish they would go that route for the portable team (Generations, Rise). The target platform is whatever latest Nintendo platform is out there so why not play to its lack of strength?
>>726063625>he considers copy pastes from the last game that didn't offer much (World) and three new outfits as contentGet some standards.
>>726069538>it’s not there>ok it’s there but it’s not up to my standardsLol…
>>726021343is no one going to point out these are PS5 copies? Japan doesnt buy PS5s, they're PC masterrace now
>>726021343>ruin what makes your franchise appealing by trying to make it like an AAA western game with none of the charm of past titles>surprised when sales crater
Just gonna hijack this to ask this:What's your favorite weapon in each game? I'm thinking on replaying/continuing some old saves I have and want to test some new weapons outside my usual SnS and LBG.
>>726071371But 10 million people bought it because of the captivating story...
>>726071953Hunting Horn every game except for Rice.
>>726071953Of the ones I've played:FU: GreatswordTri: Lance4U: Charge BladeWorld: HammerRise: Dual BladesWilds: Hunting Horn
>>726072802No, they bought it because hype of the previous game, specifically World, only to discover the game was shit. This is exactly what happened with BN4, yet Capcom did it again.
>>726071092Nobody is buying Milds period.
>>726071092>they're PC masterrace nowPC gayming in japan completely fucking collapsed now that apex turned out to be a fad and the vtubers started buying switch 2s.
>>7260719533U - LS4U - GSGU - LS & GSWorld - LS & GSIB - LSRise - GSSB - LS
im so fucking bored. how soloable is frontier and if it isnt then whats the most populated server people play on?
>>726045286I'm so torn, the game is genuinely very mediocre but Hunting Horn has never been in such an objectively great place.Fantastic new moves in the form of the Wound QTE, Echo Bubbles and the Offset songs, excellent divisions of songs across the weapon, the vast majority of useless songs given the chop.Not to mention the amazing choice to include layered weapons which let me use any Horn I want visually and not be tied down by "I have to use this horn because the songs are the most useful for what I'm hunting."I would have loved to use Emperor's Speech full time in 4U with this system, as some horns are just so ass you cannot justify using them even if you really like the visuals/sound.
>>726035771>The expansion will come out, you will buy it and paly itMost people will not. World smashed records, Rise surprisingly follow suit, and with Wilds being World 2, Capcom expected another 30M selling title. That ain't happening. In fact, the sales they got are carried purely from the initial hype and it's currently at bargain bin status. The G expansion is going to underperform and they'll have to reassess how they handle Gen 7 (aka not be dumb dumbs).
>>726054417Only trannies do TAs.
>>726035771>expansion>coming outBruh after Gog they're going to drop Gen 6 like a hot potato. Its sales are abysmal.
>>726075048lol, dropping it would be suicide and just burn the people that stuck around.
>>726075324they already burned the millions of people that liked the franchise thus far, what's a few extra dozen suckers?
>>726075410you are dumber than capcom if you can't see the problem.
>>726075048Fuck no I want to crash this bitch with no survivors. Double the brownies, double the trannies, double the cutscenes, double the map size and double the cosmetic paid DLC.
>>726075410It sets a new precedent. Traditionally you expect the same cycle of base game - expansion - new game - expansion. At this point breaking the chain sends a message, don't buy the next game even if it's good because there's no guarantee of support.
>>726075917well that's crapcom's problem, not minethey made their blackrock bed so now they get to sleep happily in the jeet feces
>>726076047>that’s Capcoms problemSo the obvious solution is to release the expansion god you’re retarded
Even the December miracle patch won't get Capcom any new sales, Wilds's sales stagnated just like how they did for Dragon's Dogma 2, even at 50% off during sales.
>>726076047You are extremely stupid.
>>726023517What's sad is that he's a nepobaby so he won't lose his job over this.
>>726076280Good, I hope crapcom triples down and burns to the ground like jewbisoft.
this game is a real disaster. they might have tanked the brand. incredible thing to imagine.
>>726076280Why would he be, for just one slip up? He's been producing for MH since the first few games.
>>726076382The next game will bounce back because it is sure to be on Switch 2, and every game is a soft reset anyway.
>>726076531Technically the next game in MHS3.
>>726035771I'll play it but doubt I'll stay long. Wilds isn't doing it for me, but who knows maybe this fall off and all the complaints will have reached Capcom's ears and they'll change what they originally intended for the expansion and even the game after. That's just wishful thinking since they seemed to listen to fans for what NOT to bring back from Rise when Sunbreak was being developed. Then again A Team isn't B Team so the former could just double down on all their bad decisions and ride it out.
Milds G is probably 80% completed already. I doubt they are doing anything other than the last touches and some testing while organizing what they will cut and release later back as TUs.
Ichinose will save MonHunPortable series will be the future
>>726021542This.
>>726021343Honestly i don´t care about wilds or even monster hunter in general but i´m willing to give stories 3 a chance.
Did they ever update the benchmark tool?It used to run like absolute shit on release, and I'm not willing to buy it is still the same. But I'm afraid if they never updated the benchmark tool, I won't be able to test it any performance improvement
What happened to this fandom?
>>726042315>”havin a BLAST”
>>726078741That's the joke, the "optimization updates" only were for the benchmark tool.The actual game runs worse than it did at launch.
>>726079301That isn't true at all though. It was way worse at launch, for me at least it doesn't stutter constantly anymore.
>>726023517> Monster Hunter World was a massive success due to the sheer amount of content to do and great gameplay> everyone got hyped for the next game> next game is shit, but sells out anywayI trust the mobile team to come up with something decent
so this entire game series just sells based off of the name, right?if someone were to actually make a good spinoff, it would probably just eat dirt because it's not called monster hunter
>>726080241No. In case you missed it there were many competitors over the years who could never get the right combo of aesthetic and gameplay down to compete.
>>726076047>its a problem for the people making the decisions and not meyeah no shit
>>726035771>or what, are you quitting MH? Yes, unless the Portable games pick up the slack. I already skipped Wilds and I doubt the expansion will win me over.>What ongoing franchise is better?What point are you trying to make here? If there's nothing better I'll simply go without.
>>726078756I dunno, I arrived when MHS1 came out, by that time threads where already console wars.
TU killed mhExpansion were alright but i hate this trend that world introduced
The post that show Wilds with the humiliating discount has become viral in Japanhttps://x.com/ChoCoBi_3150/status/1989198243025260995?t=zE_JnKqgsNeXITl6_SKCHw&s=193.2 million views.
>>726083690Capcom is losing money and you are laughing
>>726084146Yes, I am, because I don't like their "hyper realism and political" approach and I wanna them to suffer for it.
>>726084232"political"
>>726084353having to babysit a jeetling is political, yes
>Wilds was so shitty it made me look forward to MH Stories 3 insteadAre 1 and 2 good?
>>726084552Try the demos.
>>726084552I liked them. 1 is very rough and I would argue is skippable, but two is an incremental sequel, so going backwards will feel very bad.
>>726021343>>726021716I'd pick it up if it was 5 dollars on steam
>>726084416No it isn't, and if you wouldn't have a problem if he were any other race then your opinion is shit because babysitting any kind of human npc in Monhun is nad.

>>726021643capcom is always go up and down every couple of yearswe are in the WE ARE TOO COCKY RE6 era
>>726085325Was that before or after the "The Japanese gaming industry is dead" era?
>>726085160It's all the same to me. The only important characters in Monster Hunter should be the player, and the monsters.
>>726086003Funny enough MHS3 is doing what Wilds should have done if you are gonna add a "deep plot": make the MC the actual protagonist of the story.
>>726086174A big issue with Wilds story is the angle they chose with it, which was sort of rearing its head in World but was avoided. If it had followed many of the previous games our hunter would probably be occupying Nata's spot as a newbie in the unexplored or isolated land becoming a new hunter and then connecting with and learning from the guild. But they decided they wanted our hunter to have some big shot role as a veteran hunter in backstory even though we actually start again at 0 for the gameplay and then instead be Nata's mentor of sorts. They even shoved the flagship rivalry into instead being between Nata and Arkveld, instead of us and Arkveld.
>>726084552As someone who played both1 was mediocre2 was interesting but the system has inherent flaws3 looks as though it's addressing some issues, but still might have some inherent awkwardnessIf you can't wait for 3, I'd suggest skipping 1 and going straight to 2.
**"AFTER PLAYING A LOT of WILDS, I think WORLD is the best base game at launch compared to WILDS, even though I’ve been playing since MONSTER HUNTER 2G and I LOVE THE SERIES, the lore, the gameplay, even with every MONSTER HUNTER having its problems… BUT the way WILDS came out is complicated. Like, WORLD launched with few monsters but they meant something, y’know? It wasn’t super detailed or anything, but the monster’s presence said everything. (If you played WORLD you probably remember Dodogama, that weird-faced monster that gets bullied by the FF14 COLLAB, but whatever.)The FED part is that WILDS didn’t launch with a single elder dragon. I know some elders are annoying, but they’re one of the key pieces of Monster Hunter, and the craziest part: I see WORLD at launch as a complete game. It innovated the system, brought a bold approach, changed almost EVERYTHING I knew about MONSTER HUNTER, and it felt 100% ready. But Wilds launched like… 50%? 40%? Whatever, it felt incomplete. They started updating basic stuff… LIKE HOW THE HELL was there no arena?! NO FING WAY you’re telling me now there’s gonna be a gathering hub in an UPDATE?! Seriously?! Other Monster Hunters had that S*** already.And what really bothered me was the engine problem, the graphics/optimization mess. Because in Dragon’s Dogma 2—which I played, I’m a fan—I felt the same thing: the optimization was hurting more than helping. And I thought, damn, Monster Hunter Wilds is gonna use the same graphics engine as Dragon’s Dogma 2, maybe they learned, right? HELL NO, it’s the same thing. HOW the hell is my RTX 5070 dying to run this S*** and look, I was playing Black Myth Wukong before WILDS. I’ve got a Ryzen 9 7900, HOW is this even happening? Not even Cyberpunk 2077 at launch was this bad in optimization—it was bugs, sure, but still.
>>726086561What fucking gets me is that Nata really has no reason to act the way he does. It baffles me how they make a big deal of the Arkveld attacking his village, only to reveal that it was totally fine. If he came back to find everyone dead, I could at least understand him acting like a retarded kid.
>>726021343How and why did sales crash this badly for this game though? Monster Hunter Worlds ended up being a far better success and never crashed this bad. So what changed?
>>726086742They have a graveyard in the village, but yeah they just skip over it mostly. Overall it felt to me like the story was both too long, and too lacking in the important details.
>>726086769Milds just isn't that good; its a bunch of random systems and a collection poor game design haphazardly thrown together. As Ive heard many other anons say its just a game wearing the MH skin suit.
>>726086742I wonder if there is a localization issue somewhere in this, because even at release I saw way less of a negative response to the story from Japan than from the west.
>>726086974Mogs every single monster hunter
>>726086917Because the japanese are mostly apathetic to Wilds' plot which is much worse than outright dislike.
>>726087158That isn't the response I saw. A decent amount of them seemed actually moved by it lol.
>>726086742Wait, I just remembered they already did make a character that suffered an actual ON SCREEN lost from a monster attack and when completely retarded as result: CHEVAL. This means Capcom had two examples to build Nata's character and didn't use any of them.
> go straight to that funny shaped rock> you literally cant, the map doesn't let you> have to do a massive detour to reach the place> there's literally nothing there > LITERALLY nothing, not even oresthe maps are fucking atrocious in this game, even these anons that wanted a true open world MH were right, that would really be much better than this
>>726087732
Hi goys, I know I'm late, but as as someone living in Japan, I can tell you that OP is right. The price of used copies is a good indicator of how well a game got recieved here. And 980 yen is catastrophic.
>>726087893But the ones in OP's poc aren't used copies, they are brand new.
>>726088071Well shit. I read the OP too fast.It's catastrophic x 1000 then....Is the game really that bad? I kinda like desert enviroments and wanted to try it eventually.
>>726088254Nah, it does run like shit though unless you have a top tier pc.
>>726086917Bugmen have different (inferior) sensibilities. They're a nation of children because they have to be adults at age 10.
>>726021343I'm still playing world. IDK why they keep releasing new games.
>>726088254Another thing to consider is that if they want to play it on PS5 they need to buy a separate device to play discsWilds was doomed on PS5 from the beginning
>>726086769world was lucky that it was released before a tech jump and gpu were still affordable. Now the tech jump in wilds era is 5090, which is fucking 2000usd.
>>726086974Outlanders will make trillions of dollars and Wilds is gonna be the last main game. Worst timeline
>>726021343How tf is it still like $40 even at the deepest sale on Steam then? Are PS5 games just that cheap in general?
>>726089735Because Capcom controls the digital price whereas the retail store (in Japan) controls the physical priceThe retail store is dumping their stock
>>726089735physical is dying.
