Is MHW not going to get anymore updates? not even events?
I understand iceborn being the last expansion but is the game finished with fatalis and nothing more?

Feels a tad sad because its such a great game it should never have an ending Q_Q

I know theres that switch game but its not the same...and we cant even play it on pc :/

There was originally going to be more content iirc but the pandemic screwed everything up. They've been working on MHW for years now, anyways, and nothing they could add now could top Fatalis gear without totally breaking the game.

Fatty gear didn't break it? :Remi:

They're working on Strive now so I assume this game is done with the last patches making events rotate and whatnot. Last new thing we got was the movie stuff. People were hoping for AT Safi and/or AT Shara, but guess not.

in the words of a great man "its better to die a hero, than to live long enough to see yourself become the villain"
or in this case, better to end on a high note than to last long enough to become as bad as dauntless.

I honestly don't think I could go through another DLC. As great as the game is I am pretty much bored of it now.

Not what they meant.
They're saying nothing can top fatalis gear, like how AT velk was dropped at the same time as fatalis just to be a useless (in a sense) kind of armor.
Anything else would end up being super strong, stronger than fatalis, or useless, like the Artemis set (for endgame)

Also, @OP, if you want more content, then itd be best if you start thinking of whether or not youre willing to pay either a yearly subscription or a monthly subscription.

This, however, is more a loss to capcom more than it is to us, in which they would never do again.
Idk the population of Monster Hunter Frontier, but it seems like it was a loss in profit as they closed it down just a couple years ago iirc

To answer your question: correct. NO ADDITIONAL CONTENTS will be added anymore. But the events will rotate between Kulve Taroth and Safi'jiiva every two weeks. Other than that, nothing.

Rise, not Strive. This ain't Guilty Gear.

And anything stronger than Fatalis would have to be insane. T3 hunts are already like 3-4 min long solo, anything lower and it'd feel like HR.

I've been catching all of Max's vids lately, and have been watching all the ArcSys breakdowns. Strive has been on the mind like crazy lately, so much so that when Washing Machine mentioned it I didn't even bat an eye.

I just wish Strive would hurry up and drop already. ;_;

That's how the franchise work, it's not an ongoing MMO. They release a game, keep adding content for free until they release the ultimate version with G-rank difficulty (in World case it was a dlc instead of a re-release of the game and it was called master rank) then they keep adding content for that until the next game is announced.

I guess it comes down to personnal preferences but I'd rather they keep coming up with new themes and mechanics to keep the experience fresh rather than have the same game going on forever until it feels completly dull.

Also if it was an ongoing service it would either have a subscription fee or some kind of gross microtransaction model.

If you're not interested in Rise you'll probably have to wait for the next game that should be some kind of "MHW2" or something in a couple of years.

Where's your source for this? I've never heard of this info before.

MH games traditionally only have one big expansion. Then the team moves on to the next game.

Basically. And f*** the Clutch Claw. Not even a new expansion could bring me back to playing more of World if that terrible mechanic is still around.

My brain might actually be dying, but I could have sworn this[www.gamespace.com] roadmap ended up being condensed. There's definitely a variant monster that was never added; all I can think of off the top of my head is Raging Brachy. Furious Rajang, and Frostfang Barioth. Again, my brain is very smooth so if I'm missing something please correct me. Also we can't say for certain, but I don't think it's unreasonable to assume AT versions of all the MR exclusive elder dragons were originally planned, but there were several delays (for example with the Alatreon update) and things got pushed back. That's more speculation unlike the missing variant, but it doesn't seem unreasonable seeing as that's what they did with the base game.
