Yes, simulate anime as fuck wildlife. The only worthwhile wildlife to simulate.

Yeah, all the other wildlife aren't nearly as unrealistic!
Lucas Davis
it's acceptable for elder dragons to do unrealistic animal things because they are not real animals

Also listed, and more recent than zinogre. Can you read, user? Are you okay? Hello?
William Gonzalez
Nah, it's the same shit but faster
Andrew Cruz
4u is undeniably mainline, so have you ever thought that maybe the series never actually cared that much about realism(HAAAAAAAAH) and that it was only your own vision fueled by autism? You know, the people that actually make the setting and game usually know more about it than virgins on Veeky Forums who unironically think all reptiles are lizards
Jose Brown
>4u is undeniably mainline And 4th gen is undeniably where MH went to shit
That's what you get being a 4bab, you only saw the shitty recent games and assume that the series was always garbage.

As early as dos, people were complaining about the series going down the shitter design-wise, because that game added so many elder dragons when there were only three before and that was supposed to make them really special where now it was just "all the late game monsters are magical dragons."
They were right, of course. If it hadn't gotten worse than dos it would have probably been alright, and since it wiped the cast of most monsters including all elders and only added two new elder dragons tri struck about the same balance as MH1 and despite having monsters modeled on more eclectic wildlife still had believable monsters. I would say p3rd is where it truly started going downhill, but garuga, tigrex and nargacuga were early rumblings of the same problems p3rd exemplified and that pretty much became the norm in 4.
And guess who designed all three of those monsters and was also in charge of p3rd?

I'm not doubting you but how does that even work ? Do they shit out 90% of what they eat ? I mean if they didn't they'll double in weight pretty much every day right ?

Carson Jackson
Small rodents generally shit constantly And they move fast so they're burning a ton of energy all the time, that's why they eat so much. It's the same with hummingbirds.

Great sword was not crazy. It was very slow and unwieldy giving you enough suspension of disbelief. Good design.

Eli Cruz
I love that initially GS was just a shittertrap, something to appease the human flotsam that washed in from other jrpg fanbases while also marking them as retards that used a weapon that was both less fun and less effective than any other. Kinda miffed that it was later made and kept really fuckoff strong from crit draw and charge attacks.
Kayden Lopez

Video games should not necessarily be realistic, but they should make sense

and now we live with styles, nu-LS, archdemon DS and the dreaded CB. Truly MH became the trash it stood apart from before.

>When Koei makes a more realistic CB than Capcom could ever dream of, atop of having sensible gameplay that wasn't either a shitty GS or an overpowered Tri Lance depending on which game you play. And that's not counting a few musou-esque attacks it has.

all of those were improvements that made the weapons fun to use.
Levi Jenkins
>when someone acts as a dramatic retard but some of his points makes sense and it scares you hold me
Connor Cox
>believable monsters >oh no this is now TOO MANY dragons Give me a break, user. Monsters are inherently unbelievable. That's why they're monsters. Rathalos, for instance, may strike you as "believable", but that's only because you're already familiar with his design he's as cookie cutter as a wyvern can get. If we seriously want to pick about believability, the fact that he could even lift off of the ground and stay in the air for more than 20 seconds already breaks that. A "believable" rathalos would have to look like this. Do you find the manticore "believable"? The hydra? Charybdis? Of course not. They're monsters. What you are arguing against is creativity and innovative design. Zinogre seems so jarring because you've never seen anything like that before. But why is that a bad thing? Stop worrying about how believable it is and put more thought into why the design may or may not be appealing And please don't try to bitch out of this and try to spin this to make it seem like I think Frontier rehashes are okay, because that also stands against the point.
Caleb Jenkins
>When Capcom makes a more relistic CB than Capcom could ever dream of, atop of having sensible gameplay that wasn't either a shitty GS or an overpowered tri lance (but could be either if you were willing to play suboptimally for style) And musou is shit.
