I've never played monster hunter.

They look pretty cool but look like a grind in terms of gameplay loop, I'm too old and impatient to get into that.

Dog or Cat?

I wouldn't let a group of cats prepare food for me.

The voracious lurkin gurken

>>423663
This has alot of elements that should make it threatening but all combined just make it look kind of goofy.

>>423672
Wait what?
Shame is wasn't Azure Rathalos but that's interesting but Sonic has collabed with Monster Hunter multiple times already so I guess it was only a matter of time.

>>423672
>>423673
Still not as weird as the MGS Peace Walker and Monster Hunter P3rd collab where Big Boss fights a Rathalos and a Tigrex

>>423674
A Rathalos is basically the same thing as a Metal Gear, when you think about it.

I can't even be upset

look at his flappy ears, dawww, big puppy!

Random question, but is there every any conflict involving human-type enemies in Monster Hunter?
Like the mechanics of gameplay is focused around your dudes fighting bigger beasts so don't know if it would even function, but at the same time suppose is plausible your character could come into conflict with like Poachers or something out in the wild.

>>423715
Nope, they never really focus in on humans doing bad things like that the ancient civilization stuff hinting towards it and World kind of, you try to stop a disaster but in iceborn it implies that you are being a fuck up because things like nerg existed for awhile so if they were so dangerous to the balance of nature nature would have been dead long ago but it isn't and you might be fuckin with the balance in your attempt to keep the order.

>>423754
if benis shaped is friendly to you then yeah I guess so

>>423767
Fighting something underwater horrifies me.

Like trying to stab something that can fly around and divebomb at will you sucks.
But its not the same as being trapped in water and struggling to even float while something unfairly huge and terrifying is gliding around, making use of the properties of the environment to be bigger and faster than it has any right being.

This counts even if you have some sort of breathing source so you aren't also struggling to hold your breath and not die awfully from inhaling all the water around you.

We should blow up the ocean.

>>423784
I miss Tri Underwater Combat just due to how scary being underwater was to me, nothing else has brought that kind of dread then seeing a monster that is specially adapted to living soup.

>>423834
wtf

>>423850
poorly planned publicity event is poorly planned.

>>423854
Surprising just how wrong some of these events can go like dashcon or rainfurest.

>>423861
>rainfurest
What?
This gives the mental image of a bunch of furries trying to party in the Amazon jungle. Dying of heat-stroke, malaria and actual animal attacks.

>>423862
It was a furry convention that got cancelled in 2015 after it had a disastrous convention worse than Dashcon. Here's the tl;dr on what happened then:
>Somebody loosened a bolt on a toilet causing water to flood the entire first floor of a hotel
>People would disable the fire alarms in the hotel rooms so they can hotbox it
>Somebody rolled up towels and put them into the pumps in the hot tubs, causing them to all break
>Another person took all the towels from the spa and threw them into said hot tub
>Someone got banned for drilling a glory hole in one of the stalls
>Multiple people got arrested for possessing and dealing drugs like mushrooms and narcotics
>People were walking around in full diapers and also were throwing diapers onto people's cars
>Elevators were out of order due to people breaking the buttons after trying to press them with their feet
Basically everything that could've gone wrong did that weekend

>>423862
>This gives the mental image of a bunch of furries trying to party in the Amazon jungle. Dying of heat-stroke, malaria and actual animal attacks.
That's a pretty nice mental image. Someone should draw it.

>>423864
To be honest, that sounds like it would make for an awesome movie. Something in the lines of Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.

>>423865
>Movie based on Rainfurrest 2015 from the perspective of a drugged-out journalist wondering what the hell he's got himself involved in
Sounds kino

>>423868
I was thinking more from the perspective of the furfags. Really, from that description, it already sounds like how Fear & Loathing went. Except that it would involve several dozen drugged-out crazies not just one, plus they'd all be perverts to boot.

>>423869
I'd still watch that so long as Jake Gyllenhaal and Christian Bale are in it

Brute Wyvern Ecology : Anjanath in Monster Hunter
Anyone seen this guys stuff?

>>423880
No David Attenborough, No Buy.

Can't wait for TU3 for Rise I heard that they made a Fire Astolos. Fire Kushala, and a Fire Rathalos.

Sonic Frontiers x Monster Hunter Collab Pack Trailer
Honestly looks pretty goofy in motion.

>>423988
Probably with how much more realistic it looks in contrast with goofy blue needle mouse if it had Stories type of color and shading it would fit better.

Holy shit Risen elders have new armor they finally atoned for their sins from the apex monsters being such a miss opportunities.
yes I have been living under a rock and haven't played all the TU2 stuff

If you were to play the series for the first time whats the best game to jump in on?

The newest one or maybe one of the older games.

Humans are evil.
There should be a game where you play as the noble beasts and eat all the humans for their unnatural sins of science and technology!

>>424161
I'm trying to make out what exactly the yellow/blue dude's weapon is meant to be.
It looks like an enormous scaly 2-handed sword but it has chunks missing and is sparking alot.

Would you still lover Wyveruan wife if she laid an egg?

>>424319
Well as long as its your egg it should be fine right?
Otherwise she has cheated on you.

Black Diablos is actually a subspecies of Diablos, they are completely indistinguishable until one of them turns black.

>>424484
Which one of them is more likely to be shot by the hunters.

>>424556
Seen like in game it would have to be Zorah Madaros.

>>423551
Monster Hunter has action games and rpgs, what other genres could it branch out into. RTS? Dating Sim?
