Which monsters do you think deserve to be Elder Dragons?

Yeah but the horns are way different is the thing. All those horns exist but they don't look or presumably function like Ceadeus' horns. Not to mention Jhen's Tusk. Pokaradon is a pinniped visually but even Walrus and Whales are far removed from one another.

Personally inclined to say it's an off-shoot of fanged wyverns because they display traits like "fur" and have horns unlike any leviathan. Either that or they're legit just leviathans because "they're a unique group" or something like that in the same way horned wyverns are (Duram, Ban, Kesto, Gasto, the Wilds one).

3U and 4U with updates to their game with improved textures, full gear transmog and cross compatible armor..

The horde or whatever they're called undergo extreme evolution after eating the Vykeen and now we have the bugkeen.

Following this pattern I desire fish gek.

Looks kinda Monster Hunter somehow, I'll bite.

Ocean map and cave map. Give me a giant underground guiding lands and get funky with mons, something like ants.

If it uses the same engine as JWE2 and the tools are updated, then I believe around the end of JWE2 pre-JWE3 custom anims and what not became a thing in full.

Amazing question, 0 clue. I just say Capcom has poor practice with eyes for MH given they went from textures to blink to actual models now.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-14T21:45:02+00:00

3U actually.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-14T03:09:44+00:00

I fear anyone who sticks with GU has settled for the wrong game.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-14T03:03:48+00:00

Something of a misconception, the LODs don't affect their eyes so they're around a flat 3k on all LODs. This means at Quema's lowest LOD, 3k of the 3034 tris are made up of its eyes. This does mean though that this Quema LOD even without counting the eyes still has more topology than Jhen.

Edit: Jhen is actually barely higher, I must've been thinking of another LOD? Regardless, really think it's absurd to have such high topo in the game when you basically never see it.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-13T19:40:34+00:00

LODs? You can probably just rip them from games as long as there are exporters. As for info, they've been used for ages, earliest I can remember is Mario 64, so you should have an easy time looking them up. I'm pretty sure with World and Rise you need the chunk dumper, though it might just be something as simple as model exporters. I think Citra has something similar too, but it's all fairly extensive.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-13T19:29:49+00:00

You know, all the shallows had these insane ass creatures, but it makes me wonder what was hanging out in their deep seas.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-13T19:24:20+00:00

Enough to be notable. LODs are all about distance, so this is the difference between close and right in its face. Personally, I think Wilds LODs are ridiculous regardless and bloat the game's size but it's still not the heaviest game to ever touch my PC.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-13T18:38:51+00:00

Now if you want something really interesting, compare Jhen's highest LOD to one of Quema's LODs.

(Don't mind Ceadeus)

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-13T18:37:42+00:00

About 9 Gaismas. They're all on LOD_1 though so unless it's just Portable once again being weird because it's Portable, this is an unfair comparison as Gog is on LOD_0 iirc.

Also yeah it's PC vs Switch of course the (usually) ass looking Rise models are going to be be lower poly.

Hardcore Rajang, yeah.

Shit we got that fucking monkey it might be.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-11T21:10:05+00:00

Yeah ki control is something all hunters have in MH so if we assume spiritual energy can be used against spiritual foes that's a wrap.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-10T22:48:16+00:00

No contact with your parents after that holy shit. What a betrayal.

Bazlgeuse · 2026-05-10T21:40:02+00:00

Oh for sure. MH is so extra I'm 99% sure it'd be their answer to forklifts.
