Dude they were taking their time and using starter weapons and still were able to finish teh quest within the time frame of the demo
I have yet to see anything in this game to be concerned over
Thank you! looks huge!

That poster is confused. I just rewatched the footage. The LS user's sharpness goes yellow and he starts bouncing, and it stays yellow for the entire rest of the footage.
There's no magic-insta-sharpen item.
But LS spirit combo has never ever bounced.
Obviously this is multi-layered map. Fantastic.

He did use an item around that point though. Not sure what it was so it easily confused me too.

Was the info about being able to switch to the gibberish language in the stream? There were parts I tuned out at when it wasn't gameplay.

I dont think we will have to wait long for youtubers to break down the flood of info and pick apart the gameplay demo
Im very excited for all the deep dives this week

Yes, and afaik this is the first time they mentioned it. They also said you can switch voice of Japanese and gibberish.
I'm assuming you can do the same for English version.

I'm doing it myself right now. Plus you guys will be able to do it too when this upload is done. Though I just checked back and they didn't make the stream archive private so anyone can just rewatch it through youtube right now.
Still, I'd rather have my own video file for ease.
I'm thinking about the monsters chasing you feature..I feel is kinda pointless for vet hunters that want to heal or sharpen, alot of them will find a opening in the monster attack or wait till the monster run away to heal and sharpen.Heck most of them will just continued fighting on the spot and can't be bothered luring a monster to another monster unless you're doing 2 of the same type of monsters quest.

He used a lifepowder. The tutorial npc was telling him he should save his allies (two of them just got rekt and had low health).

Is the archive still junk quality or is it direct feed?

That's kinda my point. The handheld games only got 'proper online' when 3U dropped and since then haven't needed any fees (Nintendo didn't pay for the 4 or X servers), so I thought it was obvious that Capcom was done with them, that's all.

It's still fuzzy.

Ah, I see. Sounds good.
That would alleviate alot of my concerns if this is indeed true.
We've only barely seen parts of one map. I'm not too concerned but rather still very eager to see how quick traversal can be in these much bigger, seamlessly connected areas. It's a series first after all.

It's true. It was literally said (and demonstrated) in the stream.
This footage looks really impressive, much more than what the trailer implied:

2018 can't come soon enough.
It's just the Kinsect.

Okay here's the evidence that they purposely chose voice-acting to cater beginners, and also left an option to let characters speak gibberish (a "MonHun Language so Tsujimoto calls it) for long time players as well.

YOOOOOOOO
I just rewatched the footage and when LS hit with the aerial vertical slash, spirit gauge jumped from white STRAIGHT TO RED.

I still need to know more about bowguns. I wonder if you will be as severely ammo limited now, it seemed like there was an emphasis on 'cooldown' abilities and rotating between ammo types. But I barely got to see much and a lot of that was in a tiny ass window. It would make sense to reduce the reliance on ammo because then people would just burn their good shots and switch to a different weapon. I know I would.
I don't think they've ever been super forthcoming about monster totals pre-release so I'm not too worried about that yet. But amount of content is the big question right now.
Hm. I'm thinking more of a Destiny kind of rollout of content. Free updates then major expansions. G-rank and all the new armor etc it comes with isn't something that makes sense spread out across smaller DLC launches.
Hopefully they don't go full western AAA with platform exclusive content, pay to win DLC etc. But MH has always done free updates well enough and it's not like 'just buy a new game every year' is a perfect model.

We know how they work. We don't know if you can turn them off.

This...
This was fucking incredible
The non-segmented, continuous areas, the extended pursuit between the hunter and the monster, the combat, the dynamic environment!
This really is my dream MoHun game FINALLY come to life (^______^)

They're scared away when monsters are around, as far as what I've heard.

Let's see how it does in terms of sales now that every old fan is convinced...
A bit disappointed by the graphics not pushing at all the hardware considering the development time (could run on other platforms without any gameplay compromise from what was shown), but the gameplay seemed nice overall, outside of some choices for the lock-on.
Will get the PC version, sad that there'll be no crossplay and that no japanese players will be able to play on PC as well...

Part breaking was shown at e3. Some of the demos cut Anjanath's tail off, for example.
EDIT:
My upload is finally done. If anyone wants the video file to dig through instead of youtube, here you go:
