lol, that may make it a bit more OKI had actually been really excited for the game, but then I started reading on things a bit more, and now I'm conflicted. I know it's just a video game, so it feels a bit stupid even worrying about that, but I know how I am D:


Trust me, when you're out trying to pick some flowers and an Anjanath randomly comes out to stomp on your face... You'll be more than happy to kill it... >.>
The sum of all hunt arguments over early pullers: http://goo.gl/IFT9IE


You do know that in FFXIV you kill tons of more or less innocents whose only "bad" is the fact that their families are basically held hostage by Garlemald while they are being forcefully conscripted into their army, right? In Heavensward, you killed tons of people whose only fault, literally, was being born, so they only wanted to survive while fighting against oppression.
All of that on top of tons of actual bad guys, of course.
Monsters in monster hunter series are actually pretty feral. They are predators that will happily kill any human they come across even unprovoked. Sure, there are exceptions to that rule, but I don't think those exceptions need to be killed. Like, ever.
Trust me, it's cropped up before when leveling and you just roam the land killing peaceful animals. The people, not so much.You do know that in FFXIV you kill tons of more or less innocents whose only "bad" is the fact that their families are basically held hostage by Garlemald while they are being forcefully conscripted into their army, right?

Like, ever.I think the interaction/animations/AI in MH seems to be A LOT more realistic from what I've seen. One of the articles painted a lovely picture of clubbing a monster to death, only then to go chase it's small cub down that watched as you killed the parent. And some mobs will try to run away as you chase them down and continue the assault. lol. OOF.
Anyway, wasn't really trying to turn this to discuss my sensitivities. Plenty of inane things bum me out, whether or not it makes sense.When I originally read Malzian's comment about needing to kill Rathalos as well as Behemoth in order to get the goodies, I had a moment of panic thinking I would need to own BOTH games in order to acquire the items. And since I'm on the fence about MWH, I saw my pretty leather outfit slipping away from my grasp. Glad to know that isn't the case.
Oh dear...when the B-52 monster shows up, I don't think you would consider it innocent. *shudders at the thought of Bazelgeuse*
