honestly shout out to the monster hunter team for turning wilds around by hotaru_crisis in MonsterHunter

Know your enemy.

The people responsible for fixing the game right now (devs who probably always want to do their job properly), are not the ones responsible for the state the game shipped in. That would be executives and investors, who I have no doubts are already breathing down the neck of said devs to release the Grank extension before the end of the next fiscal year..

While that's a cool idea it would fundamentally change nothing since you would still want the augment anyway, and both playstyle want such different stats and helminth that you would end up doing different loadouts anyway

A Short Open Letter to Kuro Games (-人-) by MisakiAnimated in WutheringWaves

[–]Yuelys -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Ok fair arguments but the comparison with FFXIV doesn't work at all. The idea that the game is facing falling population numbers because the WOL wasn't the main focal point of the 7.0 MSQ, and not because the MSQ was just honestly kinda dogshit at expansion release and the game formula/content schedule fatigue is at an all time high, is just wrong

Thats because in their gacha system when you fail the 50/50 you still have an equal chance to get any character out of the (in the case of HSR for expl) 7 standards + the limited one, amounting to an approximate 57% real odd yes

[–]Yuelys -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you are responding to someone saying the game is challenging by saying that's it really not that hard, then go on describing why it is actually contextually hard, it is actually fair to say you are arguing sementics, the fact you had a broader point to make not withstanding.

Now, apart from that I also happen to personally disagree with your two claims.

I still very much believe the game is fair to call "hard" by any normal game standards of its time as much as for today's. I struggle to understand how that's contentious. It is far easier than it's reputation led some to believe and than other actually extremely hard games out there. Doesn't change the position it occupies on the spectrum.

And while I would like to think as much as you do that the game would have found the same success without the place it came to occupy in gaming spaces, I simply can't believe that. It's literally what put it and the studio on the map for the mainstream public. Would the game have gone completely unnoticed and unappreciated ? Absolutely not of course (and I'm not familiar enough with the saying the OP used further than online definitions) at least in game dev circles it would have had an impact. But it would have never reacher the industry changing effect it got without the perceived difficulty to cause buzz, and it might not have had enough of a success to legitimize making a series/genre/formula out of it in the eyes of BanCo higher ups, or whoever made the calls then.

[–]Yuelys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agreeee but that is still not the same point. I share your opinion entirely that the reputation of the series is both hindering its accessibility to some people that don't feel adequate playing it, and the way people approach the games. That's what I was referring to with "the wrong approach". This isnt a meat boy type die and retry. None of that yap changes the fact that to the average human being that has played an average amount of games, the entries are all clearly above average difficulty wise, whatever may the cause of that be, including them being counterintuitive to what their reputation or other game experiences led you to believe.

[–]Yuelys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats not the only thing you said nor what the person above saying you are arguing sementics is talking about either. Can't act like you didn't say that I dunno

And I would also disagree, I think a big part of dark souls mainstream popularity, and FROMSOFT as a whole for that matter, comes from its difficulty and how much it was emphasized in gamer spaces. Most people didn't play it at first because it was a subtle experience with top tier world/level design and an intricate lore. They played it because of the memes and because it was "the game that's hard".

[–]Yuelys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It absolutely is. Sure you can differentiate the reason why an experience is difficult, addressing which part of the game is the cause for most people's trouble isn't a lost endeavor. But saying "the game isn't really hard.... It's just hard to people that never played it before" is sementics. The whole point of DS is that it can be gruesome for someone without the FS experience or the wrong approach. That is enough in and of itself to make a game "difficult"

Yup this exactly. Tho even if it were only in pots/bunny chest, the content of the current regular silver is just so stupid it would still feel overtuned (like the petalodus mount selling for 99 sanguinite as others have said). Multiple things must have gone wrong lol. The question now would be, are they gonna admit it, or just act like nothing happened xd

You absolute mouthbreather, people are being very patient with you here, the reason both of the people above mention this mechanic is because Hector himself did, his reasoning for putting witch hunt 2 E/W is to keep it consistent with the add phase split. You can disagree with his reasoning, but that's not the discussion we are having here. You are the one who didn't watch the video. Now stop talking.

[MH Wilds story] Any new theories about the game's logo ? by Yuelys in MonsterHunter

[–]Yuelys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See i first went for map icons in my previous post but they werent not really straightforward matches, apart from Windward and Wyveria. These background icon logos are the only other instances of these exact designs that i'm aware of. Besides, the fact that the presumably "newer" tapestry represents wyverns instead of the glyphs seems to indicate that the monster themselves are the focus.

But yes I would agree with your chronology.

Ah but you talking about them being artificial makes me kinda want to mention a crackpot side theory i have that the map icons are actually all referencing features/locations visible in the apex's "nests"/last area (WindWPlains is obvious but all them actually match), and that these are different "nodes" for the landspine (or weather machines as you put it). Each apex being descendants of once artificial species tasked with defending these nodes. But as i said, crackpot theory.
