Monster Hunter Stories 3 Launch trailer

In creature catching game, MHStories is much closer to SMT than Pokémon since just like SMT your character will fight beside the monster.
I need to check out those games at some point. Might get the first one in the next sale.
 
3rd game has big chunky demo, play it and see for yourself.
I'm a weirdo that really, really doesn't like trying out demos lol. For some reason, knowing that the experience is "incomplete and about to end" makes me lose interest. I trust you and others in this thread so I'll just assume the games are cool. Plus if I get it on a sale it's not that much of a biggie if I end up not liking the game.

The thing is you can transfer your save from the demo to the full game so if you end up liking it you can continue your progress from the demo.
 
I'm surprised and sad that we don't have an OT for this 😕

Just bear in mind, the first two games are a lot more... kid friendly. The third game is a massive tone shift for the series in terms of both writing and art direction, including having your protagonist function as a fully-fledged character of their own instead of being mute. So if you end up not caring for the first or second game, you should still give the third one a shot via the demo so you can get a feel for it without spending money, and then you can just pick up where you left off in the demo to the full release.
 
I want to play this way more than I ever wanted to play monster hunter.
Exactly how I feel!

I'm about an hour or two in and I have no idea how combat works in this. I'm hella confused lol

Even did the tutorial. Thought I understood it. Nope. No clue what's going on, but it looks nice!

100000 mechanics but once it clicks, IT CLICKS
 
Demo seemed decent but I wasn't sold on the combat mechanics, very confusing. It's on my wishlist though, probably on a sale eventually. Pokopia owns me right now anyways.
