Now I'm annoyed I picked up MHX since I got distracted and haven't even started it yet  40 bucks down the drain.

Yeah, the game will contain the new content and all the previous content. You can bring your save data into XX from X, so you can jump right into the new stuff if you've already beaten the hell out of X. I drafted in my wife on translation duty to try to figure out what Brave Style actually is. What they described is that if you continuously attack the monster, you build up your 'Brave Meter'. Once it's full, you can new combos that you can't do normally, and your evades will be faster than normal as well. In terms of the Nyantas/Prowlers, they talked about how the Prowlers were limited compared to Hunters, and now they're bringing Nyantas closer to the variety and personality you can bring to your hunter. They can use the vaulting move from Aerial Style and the Bushido/Adept Dodge. They weren't totally clear about whether you pick a style prior to your hunt like a Hunter, or whether these moves are now innate to any Prowler, but from the phrasing (bringing Prowlers up to speed with hunters) we think you probably choose a style like hunters rather than gain these as innate advantages, but take this with a huge pinch of salt. Also the Diablos they showed is called 'Ouma Diablos', and the kanji are a kind of obscure combination that apparently translates to 'Massacre Demon'. Massacre Demon Diablos sounds pretty awesome IMO. edit: Capcom's JP YouTube channel is doing a livestream right now about XX as well but so far no notable new info that I've noticed thorsilver fucked around with this message at 12:57 on Oct 27, 2016 |

If so, yeah, that will save me a ton of time since I'll be like fully deep endgame by the time this thing comes out in the US.

Yeah, anyone lamenting that they just bought Gen shouldn't worry since you'll have time to release of the game in Japanese + 6-9 months for the English version to come out  plenty of time to hunt.

I was feeling kinda meh on the whole thing, until the bit about Prowlers being able to Adept/Aerial Style. gently caress. YES. The one thing I miss when I play as the cat is being able to rodeo monsters to death. That was half the reason I went with Bugstick in 4U. Now I can be the cat rodeo queen! And you can import your save data? Bring on the GenerationsU, or whatever it's going to be called. Bring it on so much!

Add to that new styles, areas, monsters, etc. I've done the G-version upgrade cycle a couple times now and in other hunting games as well (Toukiden --> Toukiden Kiwami, God Eater --> God Eater Burst, etc.) and I've yet to feel ripped off, personally. I've always gotten far more hours of fun out of them than I do out of most full-on sequels in other genres.

I'm still playing through 4U and was only planning on grabbing Generations now in preparation for eventually getting around to play it in 6-12 months. No point in doing that now when XX will be out by the time I'm done with 4U!

I wish the MH series would get Pokemon-big overseas so we could start getting simultaneous releases.  I want to play XX, but I don't want to do so without importing my Gen save so I'm definitely waiting however long for the English version.Also... Double Generations? Ultimate Generations? Girls Generations?

Seriously, he can port the save data into the new one, I don't understand the problem Capcom JP live stream is showing live gameplay of Brave Style Hammer right now, if anyone fancies a preview edit: OK I can't listen to the audio because I have to at least pretend to be working, but holy poo poo the hammer has a side-step in Brave Style?? He was charging attacks and side-stepping Rathian's attacks while charging, it was awesome edit2: Brave Style LS vs Barroth now. So many meters edit3: Brave Style GS vs Yian Kut-Ku. There's a lot of stuff going on with this style. Seems like you can charge up the Brave meter and deflect certain attacks?? And with GS he filled the meter and then unleashed a crazy-fast charged attack that got to level 4 in about half a second. thorsilver fucked around with this message at 14:33 on Oct 27, 2016 |

Generations+ Yeah, the localizers kinda dug themselves into a corner with that one. In their defense, Capcom originally stated that this wasn't a main line game and wouldn't be receiving a G version. I'm not as salty as I could be, because the new features look super fun.

It was probably dumb of them to localize the first cross game based merely on the outcry of fans under the assumption that there wouldn't be a G version this time around. Possibly a huge gently caress up on the part of everyone who adamantly begged for it to be localized. There is always a G version, and it is untested how well such will sell in the rest of the world outside of Japan, providing both are released. I hope sales remain strong. What they need to do is just skip every first release new title and coordinate a world wide simultaneous release of the G version.

I didn't realize that you could transfer saves, that does help significantly. I would be really averse to grinding through while knowing I'm going to eventually restart in the "real" game, but if it's basically an expansion/upgrade I can move my progress into, that feels a lot better.

Honestly we're just getting into exactly the same thing Japan has now. Get the first game, then get the expansion and transfer your saves over. The one thing that's weird about this is that they did in fact say X wasn't getting an expansion, but I guess they changed their minds based on what they had available. It might also be to give themselves more time to really take advantage of the opportunity the Switch gives them, since they're not providing a launch title for it yet. Considering Monster Hunter is the biggest single gaming franchise in Japan, I feel like there would essentially be riots in the streets if they released a game for a new console that sucked. Also gently caress am I so glad Barioth is back, and Rocket Gore looks really cool. I hope they bring back a good chunk of monsters besides the ones they showed, but I have the feeling they would anyway; standard Diablos is at least implied, since they haven't put Deviants without the original monsters, and a couple of returners does not make an expansion. They've always been equivalent time investments to the base game. Squidtentacle fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Oct 27, 2016 |

Yeah, that was basically the reason people wanted Generations so bad, right? It'd be the last game until 5 by Capcom's own admission, and western fans didn't want to miss out.

It makes you wonder, though. Like, clearly they don't want to put out a full-on Monster Hunter 5 on the 3DS, but like... was Nintendo just way too late with distributing developer kits for the Switch, or something?
