The new slide fixes my pet peeve with the charge blade which was movement felt restricted even in sword form.

Also weird that this is a new gen and capcom hasn't announced a new weapon yet

Glider OMG!!!
Also that animation when he dodges and slides near the ground looks so smooth.
Everything about this looks amazing!

Super excited, it's looking so good! Couple of my friends fell off MH after Portable 3rd, but they're excited to get back in now
 
I take it the demo was made to be considerably easier than the full game? Cause that Jagras went down super fast and the player in the Anjanath footage was awful but still managed to take it down.

Yeah I wouldn't read into the demos tooo much

But most early game monsters go down with a decent level of competence anyways
 
Umm we are above and beyond our wildest expectations at this point


This is looking like the pinnacle of the series at this point. The best MH game ever made


Hyperbole? Naw man.. Not based on all this pure gameplay goodness

Im just considering the darkest of the dark timelines.
Fingers crossed for qte's in the next trailer.

I mean they have to get people in and out to play it at events, so yeah.

The demo weapons are obviously way over powered, Jagras was falling on its back after like every two combos in the Arekkz's video!

Glider, eh?

well my theory with MH4 is that their focus on new traversal abilities and verticality was leading into a way to make a monster hunter game without loading transitions. If they added some more options like a glider or mount or something they could maintain the game's pace without load screens and shortcuts. But a big open world would make little sense.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
These graphics.
Charge Blade gameplay sliding dodges.
GLIDING MANTLE.

I'm a pile of quivering goo here.

Arekkz confirmed on twitter that CB has 4U style Guard points. The king is back baby, no more clunky bullshit X/XX CB!

Only being able to look at this deliciousness but having to wait probably at least half a year until playing.

Glide above monster. Let go. Charge GS in air. Level 3. Head smash.

A guy can dream...

I can see that happening. Hoping to glide, drop and fire loads of arrows straight down, that would be a cool move. I have still to see what the bow sliding move looks like.

You know I don't mind the lack of new weapon class.

In exchange we got seamless zones, various QoL improvements and a motherfucking glider. It's worthy to be called the 5th installment.

So it looks like the slide dodge might be the replacement for the step dodge for the weapons that had it?

I am sure they could add more down the line but 14 (think it is) weapon classes is awesome. Cannot wait to see all the various weapons to make.
