There was a blog post by the guy who worked on localizing MH4U, tl;dr there is A LOT of text that needs to be translated, proofread, and inserted correctly in the game.

how much of it is just copy/paste from the already translated mhx

a lot prolly, but knowing capcom they would just dump all the code out and make whoever translates start from 0

nah, the big main video they showed was nothing but switch games and they're still gonna be showing off more announcements during the treehouse

if XX doesn't come up then though then you should worry

Oh look, that thing I was screaming about last night is true. They've abandoned real MH players and put all their eggs in that lovely action game.

Press F to pay respects. Monster Hunter is dead in the west. I'd love to still be proven wrong, but considering it hasn't been shown at all yet...

The real reason Switch isn't getting World is because its' getting Monster Hunter Portable World instead.

There are only 5 minutes of gameplay footage. I'm not sure why you are proclaiming the death of the franchise at this stage.

The fact that Stories is getting localized while the 'main' game isn't is insane. They're either saving a localization reveal for closer to the game's release for some insane god drat reason or they're outright abandoned MHXX.

Good news, it's coming out on PC, too!

But seriously, I hope that it's good, and not lovely. I don't know if I trust capcom to fulfill that wish, but I think they will try because Monster Hunter is pretty much their flagship brand now.

You know what I loving mean. Double Cross is the main game right now. Big announcement of a Switch version, so at least we can play the drat thing in Japanese. But the fact that they brought over a lovely side game that sold poorly and aren't bringing that over is ridiculous.

I know it doesn't have 5 in the title but I feel like this is going to basically be a mainline game anyway. It's literally being made by the team who did 1, 2, tri, and 4, 3/4 of which were console games. Maybe they just decided to drop the numbers for now because they didn't want to start dealing with the Final Fantasy problem.

Which they've already created for themselves in a different way, but still.

imo they dropped the number so in case it bombs they can fast track an actual 5 that undoes whatever new things they're trying with world and write it off as a failed experiment they wont' do again

I hope that Monster Hunter World is the MH game I've always wanted, just a giant world to explore with a bunch of DLC. Though without the MMO/Grind elements of Frontier or whatever.

Finally, a monster hunter that doesn't have poo poo controls, archaic features like zones, or potato graphics.

We'll prolly get a decent match making system along with other features of a modern console that capcom has so far deftly avoided having to use because of their insistence on putting the game out exclusively on lovely handhelds (which I own solely to play MH on, god damnit).

Christ, they could make fully half the game swimming and I'd still buy it just for the lack of zones. But thankfully there is no swimming combat!

In concept it does look exactly like what I thought MH would be when I watched the Tri trailer way back in the day. I just wish it was on Switch because I like everything to be portable now.

I love how we apparently never learn anything. Every iteration since 4 we've gone "it's not coming over, Crapcom does it again, Monster Hunter in the west is dead," and then they inevitably adhere to the same rough timeline that they always have with these games. XX hasn't even been out for three months yet in Japan, chill the hell out.

For me, it's mostly that Capcom is stupid. There are very few games out on the Switch. Their BEST chance to get a nice attach rate on XX Switch Version in the West is to get it out as soon as possible.

I've been looking at this and re-examining stuff about this game and... I'm not as down as I was on it last night. The visuals look a lot better than they first appeared on the stream and in truth we've seen very little.

I'm

Still not sure I like the new bowgun at all, though

But I'm willing to give this a chance and not let what the leaks said influence me, considering in retrospect there's a lot about them that doesn't hold up

So yeah, still super wary on this but I'm willing to wait and see

MHW will let you choose your equipment but you'll only be able to use your weapon when you mount the monster's head or if you're using a bowgun. Also, you can only summon reinforcements when a Rathalos attacks.

To be fair, there's no indication one way or another that what was shown of the bow gun is not just a special attack or hunter art.
