I’d like to get it on PS5, but since my only MH buddy has a vendetta out against Sony, I might have to get it for my steam deck. I don’t really mind, but I hope it runs.
unless that vendetta is so strong he’s policing your purchases and won’t play with you, crossplay is already confirmed.
Cross play is confirmed? Hot damn! I’m much more inclined to get it on PlayStation if that’s the case.
Actually, we played through MHW:IB together on PlayStation. We ended up choosing PC&Deck for a replay of the game because there is a skippable cutscene mod, and he was able to manufacture a clone of my PS character for me using a save manager.
That just says to me that no near future Monster Hunter game is going to be worth playing, since that focus just means that gameplay and story are going to be sacrificed in favor of graphics and gimmicks.
What World did to Monster Hunter’s environmental design and interactivity between its monsters did so much for the immersiveness of the game and the expression and scope of its titular boss monsters.
I think seeing how much that can add to the game experience is worth seeing before they get diminishing returns.
What story? Lol
I’ve only played world but the story was abysmal and the characters and facial expressions were as bad as bethesda, except with very japanese gestures with that specific style of overreaction, even if the character would never pass as japanese visually. yes its a japanese game, but even 3d models of white people acting super japanese makes me about as uncomfortable as real white people doing it but with uncanny valley mixed in.
anyway there’s no way anyone plays these games for story
