This depends on what you're ranking. Top 5 most annoying? Plessy and Ceph are in there. If it's most boring then dromes would take up 4/5 slots. I don't think Khezu fits in anywhere purely because there are always better candidates.

If they're bring back The Incredible Pickle in DLC they better be bringing back Tigrex. That things like one of the defining monsters of the series to me.

Also I'd love Barioth to come back as well, love the design on that giant saber tooth wyvern.

(and yeah, I beat it eventually but that mission took more effort than soloing Ukanlos)

Yeah monsters I'd consider the worst are a combination of annoying and just boring. So in no particular order:

Cephadrome - spends way too much time sand swimming. And is just a mini plesi on land. You can sonic bomb him but you don't have a big supply of those when you fight him early on.
Plesioth - I started with Tri so the hip check was fixed, but he just sucks in general. Hilarious to pierce gun him though.
Khezu - I dont even have trouble with him, I just switch to gunner and laugh. But he's boring either way.
Ceanataur - gently caress this guy the most and how much he trips you.
Black Gravios - probably has the most going for him in this list, but man is he just so goddamn annoying to fight unless you're running a HBG pierce set.

So looking at my list....yeahhh gently caress gen1 monsters in general. And if you ever have a problem, switch to a ranged weapon.
Also, Dromes are fine for beginner guys. But the jaggi family is waaaaaaay better as beginner monsters.

I, for one, am plenty happy to have Plesioth be relegated to the black abyss where he belongs. I remember a double Plesioth fight in MH: Gen that made me question my life choices.

I really liked Seregios and his set. I do hope to see him again some day.

I was hoping either random invade Jho or Plesioth for shock value for my new friends. Some of my best memories of the game. "Surely the hip check can't be THAT bad" right before I get sent flying by air pressure around its leg

It looks like world is going for like a 50/50 split of returning and new monsters, which sounds pretty good to me.

There's a few old favs though I hope show up as dlc or something.

Yea, I'm a bit torn between hoping that list is true and we're getting a healthy amount of brand new experiences and wishing more of my favorite monsters were getting the sexy PS4 treatment. Still, that's what DLC is for, I can see them using 'hunt your old favorites' as a major selling point there considering how hype seeing The Horrible Pickle made the fans

Lance was basically the only way underwater stuff approached tolerable. Ceadeus can still gently caress off though

The 3ds controls are fine but I can't play for more than an hour at a time because it's about as ergonomic as a shriveled testicle.

Well I have tiny hands so maybe that's why I had no issue.

Yeah, I was hoping jho would be in the game to haunt you like the past 3. Ah man, that sucks it'll be dlc only. Hearing a new player experience the pickle for the first time is always amazing.

Did you know the best monster (nerscylla) eats the worst monster (khezu) and then skins its hide and then dances around in its stupid moron skin to show how stupid it was? Fun monster fact.

Underwater in Tri was where I fell in forever-love with the lance. Upward poke was the only way I could hit anything under water.

I've never played a MH game and didn't play the beta and yet I am still absurdly hyped for this game. From the little video I've seen on youtube I just know this game is going to be extremely my jam.

I would only upgrade if you have or planning to get a 2k/4k monitor or TV. I haven't had too much frame rate issues with the demo with my normal PS4 (I'm not sure if that's saying much about the final product), but since I built a new computer and bought a higher end monitor, I plan to upgrade to a Pro.

This is the big thing. Same FPS gives me less reason to upgrade.

Also if I can find someone to buy my base model PS4.

Is there any comparison so far I can look at re: visuals?

I've heard of 4K, what's 2K? My TV is 1080, but I could hook it up to my 2560x1440 monitor (is that the same as 2k?)

Sure doesn't look sold out.

That said, I'm probably just going to stick with my old model. No sense in buying a new console for a game I'm gonna rebuy on PC.

Are the spiders and crab monsters and stuff like that not likely to be in the base game? That's a bit disappointing, one of the things I was hoping was the trailers were just showing off a portion of the monsters. They've shown a lot of dragons, wyverns and 2/4 legged dinosaurs but I was assuming there'd be a lot of monsters they were keeping as surprises, stuff like well yeah, spiders, crabs, wasps/bees, giant ape monsters and things like that. I know those have been in older monster hunters so I guess maybe they'll be post release?

2k/4k refers to horizontal resolution so it's the same thing as 1920~2560

There are always weird monsters in the game, dragons just sell the game much better to casuals I'm guessing.
