Monster hunter world collab

[Dualblade]

You mean another Gilgamesh Trail

You best not be dissin ma boy Greg I tell you wat.

Anyways, if the fight takes place in the same location as the trailer it'll be in the Azim Steppe so no Eureka but FATE is still a possibility just locked at 70 instead of the usual level. It could also be a high-end trial, though it wouldn't surprise me if its on the lower end of 70 ilvl so any lvl 70 that completes their job quest for armor/weapon can join. But we'll see.

While I don't play MHW I do hope they get a fight in their version as well. Odin has been used for another game and might be interesting for them, though Bahamut or Shinryu would make more sense and be pretty epic probably.

Eh. The Monster Hunter games have virtually no story and no real appealing characters beyond your kitty minions. It's just going to be us beating up slightly different looking monsters in FATES again, for particularly large and ugly weapons.

I never really get the love for that series. It's the poster child for "over complicated gameplay", even MHW and its attempts to simplify it.

You haven't played since Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, eh? They've only been adding more and more story to the games since then. Monster Hunter 4 had a huge story and Monster Hunter World hinges on the story completely. Monster Hunter is famous for it's depth in combat - it's not overly complicated, just refined to make you value every action you take over mindlessly brandishing your weapon like you might in Sengoku Basara.

To be fair, I'd been wondering when we were going to get a legit MonHan crossover. The last boss in Stone Vigil Hard felt like a beginner's MonHan fight (all dodge-able hits, everything telegraphed, etc), Bismarck was practically a rip off of Jhen Mohran ( boat/island with durability the whale attacks, sky whale/sand whale, bind it to stop attacks and mount it for "big damage," the "dragon killers"/dragonater) and The Steps of Faith gave me the same hype feels when I first fought Lao Shan-lung in MHFU. I'm so glad it looks like this event isn't being thrown into Eureka (hate the instance and that'd heavily gate who'd be able to actually experience the event, considering how it has its own leveling system and elements).

Not to mention the Final Fantasy collaboration with Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and Nomura's Diablos armor for your hunter and felyne. Thought that was awfully strange; was used to seeing Shonen Jump and Capcom title crossovers, but a Square Enix one felt completely out of place.

Here's hoping this one actually sticks around like the Garo stuff, always kinda sad when these collabs come and go. Noticed there was no end date announced.

I hope it sticks around or comes back around at some point. I have six characters total and only one is past all but the latest of the MSQ. The others haven't started or are somewhere in the middle. xD No way am I gonna get them all up before this event.

Its probably hunts, and that is why its for level 70s.

[Aivi_lo]

I wonder which bit will be in the Mogstation lol

"over complicated gameplay" the same ol song and dance i here from people who cant get into monster hunter.
that's fine its all a personal preference but you cant say they have no story or appealing characters unless you haven't played a game since the PSP version and MH main focus is game play and on that alone it became a popular series plus nice monster and armor design, MH world didnt simplify the gameplay it just added some QoL touches the series did(and didn't) need.

Palico confirmed next new race.
