The trailer (not yet linked outside the YT stream) showed what seemed like a heavy element of story stuff in there, I've not played MH much but isn't it mostly just lore in the towns and then the hunts are quests mostly don't get strung up with storytelling/cutscenes?

How are MonHun games usually regarding DLC, expansions, micro? Considering to pick it up.

Recent games have had monthly themed content drops. Expansions are usually a G version released 12 months after. No idea what they will do with World.

Dlc usually are free missions and cosmetics. Sometimes sub-especies that were only playable offline.
Tri also had some timed events like Jhen or Ala.

Expansions are G versions, where they add G Rank, new and returning monsters and new mechanics.

I wasn't expecting that release date drop my heart skipped a beat. Holy moly. I'll be double dipping for ps4 and pc versions. Cannot wait for this.

Jan launch basically means I will be playing World up until E3 hah. Nothing else matters.

Hoping for some 1X details soon.
 
First Monter Hunter I'll pick up. Can't fathom playing this on the small 3DS screen, but the kind of game interests me. Will be there on X1, not day one probably but not far off.

I imagine G Rank will be paid DLC this time as a themed expansion, considering the platforms in question.

Shit, didn't expect it so early. New trailer was lit, PS4 Pro looks nice. PC version when tho 😭

Yeah, I get the feeling it could be season pass stuff. If the content is good, then I would be OK with that but they have to tread carefully. World could be massive on home consoles if they do it right.

That's definitely a lot sooner than I expected. Not sure I'd be ready to buy something as time-consuming as a MH game then, though.

Looks like Capcom is betting the farm on this game and im all in. Looks like a massive step up over the 3DS games.
 
holy. moly.

I really, really want that PS4 Pro. Rathalos is my favorite monster from the series (and arguably the most iconic one). I'll absolutely buy it if it makes a US release. I'll probably even consider a Japanese import if it doesn't.

I also want that CE, but I hope that "Product Code Card" doesn't mean the game case is just for show.
