I know this sounds kind of dumb, but how are they allowed to make a game that is pretty much identical to Monster Hunter in every single way? I'm kinda surprised Capcom can't stop other devs from doing stuff like that. I loved the demo but it's really the exact same thing as MH except with demons instead of dinosaurs and poo poo

Pretty sure you can make games as similar as you want as long as they don't literally use the same assets. Back in the day Capcom lost a court case against Data East (if I remember correctly), trying to sue them because of how similar World Heroes was to Street Fighter 2. And that was against a game that had an end boss who dressed and looked almost exactly like M. Bison.

Any ETA on the demo for us Euro types yet?

VVV It's already updated and I don't see it. :(

Oh hey, I see it now. Had to search for it though, didn't appear on either the latest list or in the demo section for me.

Demo was pretty fun, I'm adding everyone in the google doc.
