Do you think MHW have enough monsters?

[Gakuya]

To be fair MHP3rd, which is a main title and my personal fav game, had 40 large monsters, 28 if you exclude reskins. MHW has 35 large monsters, 31 is you exclude reskins. This game has plenty of monsters.

But do you think they should add more?

[Kittysune]

they will eventually

[Egro]

They are adding more monsters on the console.

[stevo]

Yes and no.

There are enough diverse monsters compared to other games which basically add trash monsters to bolster the count.

But the game suffers with its endgame as there are only a handful of Elders you will keep fighting, and the process you use to do so is utterly stupid.

Also the DLC has been underwhelming. We get Deviljho, which should have been in from the start, a very lame event quest monster which gates the best gear, and Lunastra (meh), and the horrendous looking Final Fantasy colab with Behemoth, (the fight looks shockingly bad)

Alatreon has made no sign of appearing after 6 month and I suspect they'll do the same thing as they've been doing lately, and making it not scale down to Solo HP, which has been another disappointment with the DLC.

The Pc version is going to get all the content is already on console.
Everything because would make no sense.
Only if in the future are going the Street Fighter 5 route where on console there are some costumes that are not on Pc .
I really hope is not happening .
That would hurt them more than what they think.
The recent event with Final Fntasy is going to be on Pc too.
Would make no sense to have Final Fantasy 15 on Pc and than don't get the Collab on MHW pc .

^This. The game is incredibly good with it's roster without having to add too many extra "trash monsters"
The endgame will need some more work but they seem good at working on it, plus the Fall content update should hit not too soon from now with the addition of the rumored G Rank.

G rank has not been confirmed, I said rumored.

Tl;dr: Good monsters, needs more end game and elders

Yeah they had to recreate literally everything for this game. Nothing could be ported in from previous games. Which is why they decided to only do a few old monsters that players have come to know and love and go with an entirely new roster of monsters. Which I loved!

[The Professor]

It has enough for the start of a generation. Far more than Monster Hunter 3 had. The problem is more in the variety and quality. Both Piscine Wyverns are awful, surprising nobody. Way too many standard flying wyverns that don't pose a threat. Monsters like Dodogama being introduced in high rank yet exist just to be punching bags. We need more weird stuff and higher tier monsters that can justify dropping good stuff instead of being forced to grind the same Elder Dragons over and over.

No worries! The way I worded it seemed like I didn't entirely love the game.
This has been my favorite series since October 2004, and I have only been disappointed with 1 game in the series so far.

It doesnt have enough insects.

I want to see fatalis and akantor in this game if possible

[Phazon Xenomorph]

For starters they are seemingly pushing their schedules ahead due to the overwhelming support the game has gotten, it's blown all their predictions out of the water. I think they're bringing monsters they had planned for later out faster due to the sales and success.

But no, we still don't have NEARLY enough. We need more monsters and hopefully they give us a patch to G rank (maybe the Guild Marm will arrive in the New World to give us the quests instead of the handler, maybe a smug attitude and a cat fight between the two even!) and then we'll get new zones / other discovered islands or something to give us more monsters.

[ArkkBarkk]

Wasn't a snow area already teased/announced? I hope they throw a Barrioth in there atleast. Some sort of older snow area monster.
