Hey all! I'm a bachelor's student researching how players feel about AI being used in game development with things like AI-generated art, dialogue, NPCs, bug testing, etc.
I'm looking for people who play games regularly and are willing to do an interview (video call or voice chat, up to ~1 hour, can be shorter if needed) about what you personally value in games and how you feel about AI's growing role in making them.
There are no right or wrong answers, I just want to hear real opinions. Everything is anonymous and only used for my thesis at Frankfurt School of Finance & Management.
If you're up for it, drop a comment or DM me and I'll send over some times!

I love Lunagaron transforming from a regular wolf into a werewolf. Second favourite for me would be Rajang going Super Saiyan.

Please don't think that I hate GU. On contrary, I love it. It just I have strong feeling about hunting styles. I think Hunting styles is hell to implement because some styles feels it got shoehorned to the weapon it was not supposed to be behaved like that and its a balancing nightmare.
In Generation Ultimate each weapon have 6 playstyle that could be very different in gameplay loop and which moves you should be focus on. Making the game practically have 84 weapons available to play excluding the prowler.
"But more is better right, you can pick and choose whichever style that suits you"
Here's the thing: not all styles are equal in power and in practicality to use. Some are objectively better than the others. Guild style is the default styles that plays mostly the same as previous titles. The other styles are the derivative of that guild style which they add and substract the movesets. So it's very easy to get overwhelmed and lost because each styles becomes very different with each other with different moveset value as well that must be considered so you do know which style actually worth investing your time to get used to.
Let's be real here, facing with choices of different hunter style and weapon. All of you must do some research or asking in some forum first before deciding which style you pick. Some styles being better are not always very obvious. Like striker lance for example. How could you ever know its charge attack deals most damage than normal unless you search for it first?
This whole thing create a situation where only 2 or three styles from each weapon that worth to use. And some style with weapon are absolutely broken because it eliminate the balancing factor to prevent it from being OP (Valor HBG) without having another measure to prevent such thing.
The five styles that derived from the guild (Aerial, Adept, Striker, Valor, Alchemy) act as a box that must be filled with each weapon. IMO some weapon wasn't fit on such boxes. Like why would you want aerial gunlance? Or aerial HBG? Valor Lance is kinda impractical and play like a frankenstein of movesets. Some styles kinda not suit to the weapon identity imo. Which makes them weird, weak, and not fun to use either
That's why how Rise have its switch skill is the right direction to inherit the DNA from Hunter style and Hunting Arts. The next "portable 6th" (Strong quote unquote here) should use switch skill of they want to have a MH game with customizable movesets like in Generation or Rise.
If you say "Just use whatever you feel fun". Here's the thing, for vast majority of the case, the most fun is the meta combination of weapon+style. Not only the meta being objectively better stat wise. They are mostly the most fun to play as well. Back again with the issue of balancing between styles, it going to be an absolute nightmare. And most likely impossible to implement in modern MH with how already packed each weapons are with new moves and mechanics

Since the new area is high up in the sky and has a castle and jagged rocks it would make the perfect terrain to introduce one since it’s a type of terrain they are frequently associated with.
Not to mention it’s kinda weird we haven’t gotten one already to be honest. (Also yes I was watching that one scooby doo movie abracadabra-Doo)

I've asked this around and apparently rise has better player to player connection? I was just wondering if it's a steam related issue or just the way the game was built.
And also wondering if there's anyway to make it less difficult to navigate the multiplayer system
r/MonsterHunter • u/UselessRequiem • 6h ago
I haven't been around for the previous expansion releases, but both of the previous once showed MR armor sets when they were showcasing the new weapon moves. I'm really curious on what armors we're gonna see.

Some time ago, after getting insanely frustrated with the amount of dithering in Wilds, and not finding a mod that removed it quite the way I wanted, I ended up making my own mod called Fuck Your Dithering.
A few days ago I released V2, which is a complete rewrite of the mod and fixes quite a lot more than the original version did.
Most importantly, it now gets rid of two things that were driving me insane: the heavily dithered shadows and those ridiculously dithered waterfalls.


It also handles a lot more dithering throughout the game now, including things like fur, seikret, hair, seikret's flame like effects, and some other nonsense dithering.
I've seen my mod mentioned in a few posts and comments here before, so I thought i could post the update myself, i don't see anything against the rules for that, especially since it fixes some of the things people previously pointed out that the first version couldn't remove.
There are probably still some cases I've missed but I'm actively supporting this mod and will be supporting it until next monster hunter game at least.

What was the first monster you fought that checked your ego or made you hit a wall when first playing?
I remember streaming to my friends in discord as this guy tore me to shreds for hours in world, the rush of finally winning had me hooked on the series

If ur active on the leaks sub you've probably already known this but MHOutlander's has seemingly been using AI to make some art for the game, so if that is something that turns you away that may be the call to make depending on who you are.
I'm not going to do much more writing and will just show many different images from the games assets that prove my point the most, starting the things i am the most sure about



Here are some weapon icons that are also pretty clearly altered from a base image





These there could be some doubts about but are still shady either way



You mostly have to look at the small details and how they change slightly between these (the gold bits on the side slightly shift between the 1st and 3rd chest).
same situation with these pendant concept(?) illustrations



Its much harder to tell due to resolution but the details here seem quite nonsensical kinda, but feel free to see it how you will
This is all I really have to show, take everything as you will, mostly just wanted to let more people know about this so they have a more informed decision if they want to play the game or not bc yk how some people are.

A few days ago, they said it was A, haha, just because I changed my wallpaper.

Edit:I obviously meant personal record but I realized some might get confused or whatever.
So for context Ive been kinda wanting to do this quest solo but faster since I love the fight and there's something about Arkveld that's always just clicked for me. I recently made a new character where I used duel blades and hammer as my two only weapons since I wanted to get better with them and when I was fighting regular Arkveld I realized how much more aggressive I could be with them against Arkveld so I went straight to arch-tempered arkveld and with no warm-up against him I shaved I think 4 or 5 minutes off my previous time. I'm really happy about this lol

( Swipe )I managed to grab this HUGE palico plush (like 18ish inches )for only 3 dollars!! There's no tags on it so I don't know if it's official or not but I'm happy to have this as my first monster hunter merch.
