r/MHWilds

I’ve been playing monster hunter rise lately after finishing Wilds, and I notice how acrobatic your character is when traversing the environment. My hunter can run up walls, run along walls, backflip from ledges, etc.

But the coolest maneuver was after you’re done with wyvern riding and your hunter would leap from the monster and perform this really cool flip and mid air twist. It’s impractical af, but man does it look cool.

I was disappointed to see that it’s stripped away in Wilds. Like yeah there’s traversal mechanics, but my hunter doesn’t seem to do those front flips, backflips, or mid air twists anymore. Maybe it’s because here you’re just an experienced hunter whereas in Rise you’re practically a ninja. But does anyone want these acrobatic moves to come back in the next monster hunter game?

No I don’t have a problem fighting the monster or surviving I just don’t enjoy having my screen cluster fucked by multiple explosions and my camera shoved deep into slop the entire fight even with max zoomed out options it’s pretty annoying when the main adversary is my own camera and vision.

mainly Zoh Shia and Gogmazios. Rey Dau is whatever it can punish perfect counters but it’s an easy work around, Nu Udra is more than manageable, AT arkveld is whatever too iust constant sweep attack combos or tail jabs, can be countered or dodged. Again I have zero issues killing the monster and finishing the hunt in good times it just doesn’t feel fun when half the time I’m countering or dodging only to have my entire screen getting shafted. I hope with the expansion actually has monsters doing real attacks not just “tar explosion tar explosion tar explosion” or “fire ball mega fire ball fire ball mega fire ball fire vomit ground slam followed by wylk explosion scripted event roar ground explosion” it’s doesn’t prevent me from finishing the hunt it’s just tedious.

I like the game yeah I’m still gonna play it, just wish the monster would focus more on actual moves instead of relying on follow up AOE explosions from ground slams and the sort. Doshaguma likes to do this but is pretty generous in time to dodge, he smacks the ground you get stunned but if you just spam the dodge button you almost always avoid it. Other monsters you’re really fighting the camera and just silly terrain or dumb combos in awkward spots, honestly yeah really it’s just gogmazios and Zoh Shia as the main perpetrators.

EDIT. I’m not down playing the game, sure a lot of it is manageable just sharing my opinion on it, I like the game and still criticize it at the same time which is okay, still going to play it either way. What are some fights you guys enjoy and some you just abhore? Everyone has their own group of monsters they just do not enjoy which again is fine nothing wrong with that

EDIT 2
Look. Saying skill issue to players who express they don’t enjoy a fight isn’t a valid counter argument or criticism, especially when those same players can finish the hunt just fine, not enjoying something doesn’t make you a bad player. When we criticize certain things it can be an expression of frustration and SHOULD NOT BE TREATED AS A PERSONAL ATTACK TO YOU. Notice how I never mentioned artificial difficulty, never said it was DIFFICULT I said it was FRUSTRATING. It is OKAY to criticize the things you like, this is still one of my favorite games of all time but I will express my thoughts about it. This shouldn’t give you or anyone the excuse to send a direct message telling a poster or commenter to kill them selves for not enjoying content from a video game of all things, the criticism is not that serious. Especially when you go and either delete the account or block the person you threatened to try and hide it. It is not that serious and this post or other posts with criticism should not be taken to heart so seriously, this was created to spark discussion and thoughts towards the design and choice of monsters attacks and overall fights and enjoyment.
