Cool stuff revealed. I'm kinda iffy on weapon swapping, kinda goes against a big part of MH, which is monsters having good and bad matchups against certain weapons, but the new GS moves got me eating good so no complaints for the most part.

In generation 5 monster hunter, you can change your weapon anytime during a hunt. You seem alittle off there.

I really hope that wasn't the palico talking in human words.

I don't know, maybe I'm starting to lose interest in MH in general, but for the first time in my life watching a MH trailer I felt absolutely nothing. There is still a year before it releases, so a lot can change, but for now I'm totally unimpressed.

Likely because it was the equivalent of a trailer showing you fighting aptonoth.

The take away was likely supposed to be showing the mount, weapon switching, and weapon movesets being different.

Yeah, still a good year till release, and I’m guessing both showcased monsters are low rank, beginning of story goobers (typical starting pack hunt monster + pukei pukei monster that looks comically slow)

Once we get trailers with later monsters the game hopefully will look a bit more intense and interesting.

I don't think the weapon swap is a "true" weapon swap - I'm betting the mounted bowgun that we see in the trailer is a specialized, limited-use bowgun that can *only* be used while mounted. The combat looks great though, for what little we've seen. I'm still a little worried that the world/locale is only what we see in the trailer - that would be rather monotonous after a while.

Edit: I was wrong - the website confirms you can bring along a second weapon. I wonder how the skill system will work to accommodate this.

When the monster downs you, you can call your mount to pick you up ala wire fall from Monster Hunter Rise.

1:47 in the video steam wont link to that spot.

Giving counter to every weapons, again. Tch.

[Poyzo]

The environment and cast look good, but the monsters look tiny. Hope they get bigger.

[あらあら、うふふ！]

No matter the game, the ENG dubbing has to have at least one woman forcing a shrill voice.

[Bobucles]

Having the mount carry a second weapon could be really cool.
Was that greatsword in mouth a new type of monster pin? Might be cool. If monsters can disarm hunters, having a backup will be very important.
No mounted cavalry lance charge is big sad.

It sounded like the hunter talking, actually. Which is a choice that I know people are going to start arguing about if it is actually what happened.

Still, better than palicos talking, right?

[Laughing kookaburra]

oh my god clutch claw is back... disappointed.

[HoneyDrake]

slinger comes back, assuming it's purely for grabbing ammo, resources and co. and throw stuff on monsters? I am fine with it.


Compared to Rise the mount is actually looking good. AND you can see in the trailer how he switches out his sword with an bowgun while riding it.


Seems like Hunters will dine fine.

The only "issue" I feel like: how will armor sets look like? I would HATE it if we got a similar system as we do in Rise: fully focusing on the DPS and nothing else.

Wounding
A new system that creates weak spots on monsters' bodies. By repeatedly attacking specific body parts, they will gradually become damaged, making them temporary weak spots.
