You mentioning Crazy Lizard just made me wonder about the music in the game. I'm not sure if you found any info on this, but was the music original at least?
I started work on a concept for a game I was gonna call "monster hunter" about 5 years ago where you go around hunting monsters like bigfoot and nessie, and that's how I discovered the Monster Hunter franchise
Well, it can be something cool, like a cryptozoology hunt, maybe revolving around a secret/ancient civilization/society that has to keep them in check, otherwise sht happens in the world, therefore you have to hunt the "rouge" cryptids
Whats funny is capcom just ripped off the mounts and microtransactions. Seems fair play if they did not sue but considering if 10% of all assets are modified it's legal.
That’s why Capcom is still my hero. They’re the only game company found Tencent steal their stuff but rip them off back twice and actually make a lot of money
I leanred about this game when I first got into Monster Hunter with Tri. I remember seeing that the ripoff had a large fish like monsters on legs and I'm just like "Wow, even the monster designs are terrible, MH would never have a monster that was basically a giant fish on legs in their games." ...Then I met Plesioth in 3U, lol
@@A_Simple_Neurose lol, yeah I saw old gen Plesioth, too...wasn't THAT bad since I mostly use Gunlance, but the whole thing with it staying in the water was quite annoying. Then again even when I could fight it in the water in 3U, his AI was wonky for me. xD
Literally I started with MH Tri on Wii and then found Hunter Blade on the internet XD Some time later I found MHFU on PSP and then I saw it's so huge rip off of everything there XD
9:56 they didn’t just go to the great lengths of recolouring existing monsters, they also went to the great lengths of recolouring recoloured existing monsters
There've been countless of Monster Hunter like games for decades. From God Eater to Toukiden to Soul Eater, this "ripoff" is basically just another tuesday for Monster Hunter. It's really commendable of them to let so many games rip from them for years, MH developers are some of the chillest when it comes to their ip and i love them for it
@@TheCheeseMovesSideways It's because they can't afford to be hyper aggressive, as proven by their title. "Monster Hunter" is so generic of a name that I'm surprised it got out of the shop, then again, it was created before IP and Trademark madness truly started.
Honestly, when I saw that plant monster, I found that really fucking cool. Like it would never happen in a MH game because how the fuck do you justify that. But that game didn't need to justify itself, so it just... exists. Well, existed. And I find that so cool.
Nah, I think monster hunter could add a plant monster. There's already plenty of carnivorous plants to draw inspiration from and there are methods to make a plant move. You could make it so you are actually "weeding" a plant out that happened to grow too long. Its core body is too deep or widespread to actually kill but the least you can do is get rid of a part of it that grew too large. Spiders are known to make webs to catch wind to travel vast distances. Some plants use ballistic dispersal to spray seeds out. Theres a lot you could do. Or you could go the elder dragon route and say "We don't know how it works."
Despite most of the monsters being reskinned, ngl some of the designs are pretty interesting and feel like they could fit in an actual official MonHun. I would happily smartly slay these ai monsters blood splashed on each cut.
I remember playing this game nonstop when it came out. Played the betas and rushed to max level with everyone and it was such a hype. People accepted it was a ripoff but it was something you could actually play in English and on PC. It was a great time and then you hit the endgame and it was just the worst grindfest. Sad it went but man was it a good time while it lasted.
11:45 Funny thing, I'm pretty sure the "Sand Ray" might just be a ripoff of Nibelsnarf from Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. He has the same sand breath move with the same wind-up animation, plus the same flailing/swimming charge animation. The only difference is that they made his model float above the sand instead of swimming through it.
I'm always sorta sad when I see Dauntless stuff, they got done so fuckin dirty, developing their own take on MH for a PC market only to have MH World announced around the same time they were starting their beta. You couldn't ask for worse luck.
I can't bring myself to dislike Dauntless. It was pretty fun from what I played, if a bit basic. The monster designs could be interesting at times (the owlbear being a particular favourite) and it even got one of my friends into the genre. I'd tried getting him into MH before but he refused simply because the series was on 3DS, but along comes Dauntless and suddenly we're playing together and having a fun time while also getting hyped for *World's* inevitable PC release. Also there was one time where we set a monster on fire and it died while digging into another area and we both lost it, honestly one of my favourite moments with the game
Honestly I tried to play it but it just felt so incredibly repetitive, way more so than monster hunter because of how almost every fight felt the same.
It sucks cuz Dauntless tried some pretty fun stuff, such as the Lasershow Brachydios or the way the Repeater Pistols worked and especially the sick-ass Shockwave special for the regular sword I honestly could see the game become better if they really tried
I always found the gameplay simply not satisying. Maybe I just didn't play long enough but it never clicked with me. MHW clicked with me instantly in comparison.
@@alephkasai9384 Oh I never played Dauntless, because I got snubbed for a beta invite, and the MHW got announced and I suddenly and immediately cared significantly less about the game....for some reason.
Maaan this brings up memories. One thing isn't mentioned is that like pretty much any old mmorpg, you can set up your own shop, and I would just go around check everyone stall, sell stacks of mats undercutting everyone lmao Good times indeed, that winged wolf was alao my favourite monster
8:38 ACTUALLY *adjusts glasses* Rajang DOES use a lot of Blangonga's attacks and moves in 2nd Gen MH games, his original introduction was basically Super Saiyan Thunder Blangonga for High Rank.
The Blangonga looks so... off. Like it looks emaciated to me. Edit: Honestly, yeah Invasions sound neat. Perhaps we could have certain quests where poachers show up, maybe they either try to steal your prey or just plainly clobber your head in so they can finish off the monster. Don't know whether I'd like them being player-controlled though.
I would personally make it opt in only and have three different tiers with rewards increasing more and more each teir. Ai(Maybe one or two more drops)Hunters lower rank then me,(4 or 5)and any hunter (lower being again, 4/5, and increasing by one for every rank above you or something like that). They also shouldn't be able to stun or move you in any way but your weapon would stun.
I remember being really sad when this game was (rightfully) shut down. It wasn't the only mmo option, it was the ONLY option for coop pc monster hunter.
I laughed way harder than I should’ve at this video 😂 The run animation for the crossbow…gun? Killed me. And then the incredibly lazy names like “crazy lizard” and “green lizard” the cherry on top was the Lacerator beast. It’s the most hilarious abomination ever, it’s animations were killing me, I was literally dying on the floor
I had so much fun in this game, I was a player killer in my old PK clan PhoKing. You even had a player killing score. If it got too high it would announce your monster hunts to everyone playing the game. any time I started a hunt I would have a stream of angry players trying to get their revenge. it really was a pvp players wet dream game.
really strange seeing old gameplay of my own character in a video of a game from a decade ago. I see myself multiple clips - totally forgot about this game
You know what? Actually not half bad, looks actually pretty fun and its also an mmo. I think my favorite is the crazy lizard because it has such a silly name.
Holy shit I thought I was the only one that knew about this. I remember playing this when it launched because I wanted more of a MH fix since Frontier was out of reach at the time.
Monster Hunter Online. God, I remember trying to play that game. The players hated you for speaking English/not being from China. It extended to the moderators, too, who banned you because "you are not meant to be there". Only one guy I know didn't get caught and he basically just kept his head down.
@@Lunk42 It was my exposure to just how xenophobic the Chinese are when it comes to gaming. Never mind the irony of them using VPNs to play FIFA and the like but being hypocrites regarding YOU being able to play their games.
😂 holy shit they straight up said “hmmm, let’s just take all the successful game mechanics from the last 15 years, rip em off and slap em into monster Hunter, boom we got a winner!”
As an native Chinese speaker it's so freaking hilarious hearing those ridiculous trailer sell lines cuz I can 99% guess whats the original lines they were translated from
Wow, this game is insane. On one hand, there's an insane amount of just stolen stuff in this. On the other, there are some insanely cool stuff in here. Like: The Sand Ray? The Corpse Flower? Desert Sand King? The Gila? Those look so cool! I wanna hunt them!!! A few of the reskins are cool too. Swift Bat? Oasis Beast? Those look cool, and could easily be amazing with their own move sets.
It's kinda sad that you cant play this anymore because not only it looks hilarious but no one would be able to actually release such a bizarre rip off with this kind of quality in this day and age
Been wishing someone cared enough to get a private server up for this for a while, didn't get to experience it back in the day and would love to try out something goofy like this.
it was shutdown by Capcom wen it released in the US. the both publishers Beeboomonline [China] and Global Times Gaming[US] were both given a cease and desist order and Global Times was sued for1.6 million USD and was settle for 250Kish USD bankrupting the company. as for Beeboomoline it shut it's doors vary shortly after the US release. as for the game Developer i do not know what happend to Joychina only thing i heard was wen Beeboomonline shut it's doors all studios that where liked to the publisher just disappeared most likely to avoid a lawsuit and just ran with whatever money they made. that's all i know about the companies to Hunter Blade.
An interesting bit about the weapons, The ones in this game that are not in monster hunter might be the unused types that they somehow got their hands on. The maker of the original game said that they had a few other weapon types they ended up scrapping in testing cause they just did not work out right and that they planned on having magic in the game but scrapped that to make it feel more grounded and real.
I saw this one as a teen like 8 years ago when i was searching for mh fix anywhere i could. I thought that it looked like a chinese bootleg and returned to lamenting lack of frontiers in the west. Thanks for awakening memories.
It sucks that there are devs in China making completely original games, but all we see from China here in the west are rip off versions of already popular games. Because of their nonexistent copyright laws, why even be creative? Even Genshin Impact, a game that had an $100 million dollar budget, straight ripped off so many BOTW features/aesthetics when the strength of that game comes from its storylines and complex characters. People called it a cheap clone at launch, but it ended up paying off for them as free advertising as the game is positively received now. It seems like the safe option for chinese devs is to rip the hell out of the most popular games at launch, and then make the game you really want.
Honestly Chain hammer sounds like a good consepte for a weapon, a heavy hitting weapon with ranger capabilites and a mechanic similar to the clutch claw/puppet spider but less op, I will be down for that.
@@MarieTheLegend Im fully aware of that, I mained it when I played frontier, but I said a chain hammer not a magnetic arc blade with a baseball hammer like movement, equipped with nuclear bomb.
Now the CHAIN HAMMER actually feels like something that could maybe be introduced into Monster Hunter (Maybe different mechanics so Hammer never becomes obsolete but is instead still the Stun King while Chain Hammer could, perhaps DEBUFF the monster instead? Have the weapons be more likely to inflict blights?)
I played a bit of Hunter Blade and I had a pretty good time with it. I used the wand which was a weird change but it was a decent time for when I played it. This video was fun though because I briefly thought I had imagined this game
I feel like dauntless actually did a pretty good job at not being a MH clone. It feels like a somewhat well polished more casual version, but still has some original competitive elements and ideas like omnicells and weapon specials, and a weekly speedrunning contest. I love both franchises.
I've low-key wished MH had at least one "magic" weapon since a little after I started playing, especially after reading the artbook notes. IG finally made it in but still no magic staff and talismans. Of course given the limited lore behind magic in MH it might be hard to integrate into the setting (since contrary to the insistence of a lot of fans who will openly and flagrantly deny reality in order to discourage Souls fans from getting into Monster Hunter, the series has a lot of lore and generally tried to make gameplay in some way consistent with that lore). Since only elder dragons have actual magic, it would have to either be a weapon class that was completely unavailable until at least the end of low rank (when the first ED encounter usually occurs), have extremely limited early crafting options and only be dragon element (which certainly seems like it would be a sort of "ultimate" element but of course apart from the raths and a few others it's really only good for hunting EDs anyway) since the only way dragon magic enters the ecosystem as a whole is via dracophage bugs and dragonfell berries (and the things that consume them), or just be "magic" in big fat scare quotes and actually be like a flamethrower or something that uses monster elemental sacs to spew elemental beams and clouds, which I feel like pulls away a lot of the mystique of some kind of shaman carrying a crook and talismans.
@@sekiro_the_one-armed_wolf I'm gonna guess that your first exposure to MH was after World came out so most MH fans you spoke to were also new ones. It used to be the prevailing sentiment in the English-speaking community for the game, that Souls fans were somehow ruining the games by coming to the series and comparing it incessantly to Dark Souls, and despite the latter's combat system literally being derived from MH and despite MH having intricate lore, they would go as far as denying that there was any similarity in the gameplay of the two series or that MH had any lore beyond "there is a monster, you gotta go kill it." I always thought they were crazy, but seeing the way the last 3 major titles as well as the upcoming one have pandered to anyone and everyone except fans of any game before Generations, I'm starting to think they had a point about "outsiders" somehow "ruining the series" even if their assertions about the game were factually false.
man i remember playing a lot of this game with my friend. it was the only way for us to play a monster hunter game together. aside from managing to play Frontier or use xlink kai to play online on the PSP. so yeah before 4U playing mh with your friend online was a pain in the ass. xlink kai, ad hoc party, cracking frontier on pc or xbox, nobody had a wii U to play online so we where stuck on the 3ds version of 3G and local multiplayer etc. so even if this game was a pure knockoff, it manage to fill a void for us european at that time. its also why dauntless was so hype at that time. plus you had more RPG element than MH. you had a competence/skill tree system where you could spent point to unlock new move. its a long time so i barely remember but i'm sure that i mess aroud in the dual sword skill tree and unlocked some new demon mode move.
That confident BILLIONS of subscribers by next week line was amazing! Earned a sub! Well, your other words were amazing too, but that's the line that sunk it xD
Aw man I forgot about this game. I remember hating on this game back in the day (I was just getting good with my 3rd MonHun game). Now being a veteran I would've love to Tri this game.
Ay bruh why you gotta call Dauntless a clone like that 0:12. I think it was a bit of a ripoff at the start but their have been almost three years of updates and I think it is its own game now.
A year late but I think he means just the concept, though the loop of dauntless is a little different, your still fighting big monsters, learning there patterns, and killing them more than once for their cool looking gear. Dauntless is just a toned down monster hunter with more fantastical creatures.
this somehow feels like someone who really like MonHun and wanted an MMO version of it but didn't have enough creativity to make an entirely new thing so they just CTRL C V'd and then added any new ideas they could and pushed it, I think this is because from the sounds it was only cosmetics in the shop which makes me think the creator wasn't 100% greed, just like, 70% at most
OH MY GOD I thought I would never see anyone cover this game again. I was just thinking about hunter blade, again. I remember this game, tons of screenshots. I remember the pvp weird werewolf mode. Like what. Also the starting and end game armor was SICK> the promo for the game I loved, it was such a shame i didnt have the proper time to grind it out but also I hit the hardest wall in the game. I loved this game though. Along with ZMR. Shout out to people who played Japanese mmo monster hunter and the chinese mmo. I love Hunter Blade, to this day I have the original installation preserved waiting for the day We can resurrect it!
I would maybe like a uh... porcupine monster. Also I know that Rajang covers the bases of Boarlike monster, but a giant bullfango is neat. I saw a plant monster so that's cool. Most of these ideas for monsters are nice or cute. Although monster hunter has monsters that cover these bases in some way, but that plant monster would be fun to see. Would be very interesting to see a defensive, somewhat limited movement wyvern that requires you to think a bit smart with dodging, just like with those vines in the clip.
That plant monster has got me wanting an official Monster Hunter x Little Shop of Horrors crossover. Bring on the Audrey 2 and ultimate version "Hangry Audrey 2". Capcom, FEED MEEEEEEE!!
I do find it funny that so many monsters look.. Well, weird and unique (ignore that they're ripoffs for a moment) but then you get to the small monsters and herbivores and it's just straight up regular dinosaurs, mammoths and etc that look like they came from a ps2 Turok game.
I love that the majority of going back in time in the Monster Hunter and Monster Hunter adjacent series' is all crunchy, compressed old internet video quality
All right ngl, as much as I hate Invaders in souls games, the thought of someone being able to invade you during a Monster hunt sounds kinda fun in theory.
It really is since don't list his free to play and very open with how it runs itself making it easy and accessible to f****** everybody. At least I don't have to wait for a DLC for character customization to be a thing. Not to mention a learning curve is a lot easier.
I feel like this game’s existence shows how much influence monster hunter has had on games, but blatant plagiarism aside I’m sure these people would love to work on an actual monster hunter title someday and then they can convince Capcom to add a giant Mosswine in Monster hunter 6
To be fair, one thing I've always found to be lacking in monster hunter games is the fact I can't start violent wrestling in savage arena against my friends. Maybe they're onto something here!
17:05 this footage hit home for me for some reason, lol The flying fading text, the dude stopping a hunt to shit on the invader via in-game chat. Peak 2012 mmo TH-cam video...
I don't even know anything about Monster Hunter, but I grew up in a way on this era's type of mmos where I know if I was a fan when this was out I'd have been all over it. Back in 2012 I feel you'd be shocked to see something fulfilling its' purpose so well. I've got to say, games you've made relationships with fading to time is a pretty tough deal. They're lonely memories. Makes me jealous you have a way to vocalize it. I'm in no way ready for the e-shops closing in March.....

Monster Hunter Online. God, I remember trying to play that game. The players hated you for speaking English/not being from China. It extended to the moderators, too, who banned you because "you are not meant to be there". Only one guy I know didn't get caught and he basically just kept his head down.
I still don't understand how China of all places got an exclusive monhun game.
@@Lunk42 It was my exposure to just how xenophobic the Chinese are when it comes to gaming. Never mind the irony of them using VPNs to play FIFA and the like but being hypocrites regarding YOU being able to play their games.
@@Sizdothyx You'd be surprised on how alot of the Asian exclusive countries are xenophobic
😂 holy shit they straight up said “hmmm, let’s just take all the successful game mechanics from the last 15 years, rip em off and slap em into monster Hunter, boom we got a winner!”
As an native Chinese speaker it's so freaking hilarious hearing those ridiculous trailer sell lines cuz I can 99% guess whats the original lines they were translated from
Wow, this game is insane. On one hand, there's an insane amount of just stolen stuff in this.
On the other, there are some insanely cool stuff in here. Like: The Sand Ray? The Corpse Flower? Desert Sand King? The Gila? Those look so cool! I wanna hunt them!!! A few of the reskins are cool too. Swift Bat? Oasis Beast? Those look cool, and could easily be amazing with their own move sets.
It's kinda sad that you cant play this anymore because not only it looks hilarious but no one would be able to actually release such a bizarre rip off with this kind of quality in this day and age
Been wishing someone cared enough to get a private server up for this for a while, didn't get to experience it back in the day and would love to try out something goofy like this.
The "Desert Sand King" or whatever it is called has a face that looks heavily inspired by the graboids from tremors.
i kinda wanna see josh and cotton play this game
it was shutdown by Capcom wen it released in the US.
the both publishers Beeboomonline [China] and Global Times Gaming[US] were both given a cease and desist order and Global Times was sued for1.6 million USD and was settle for 250Kish USD bankrupting the company.
as for Beeboomoline it shut it's doors vary shortly after the US release.
as for the game Developer i do not know what happend to Joychina only thing i heard was wen Beeboomonline shut it's doors all studios that where liked to the publisher just disappeared most likely to avoid a lawsuit and just ran with whatever money they made.
that's all i know about the companies to Hunter Blade.
0:37 Kratos on his way to Midgard.
An interesting bit about the weapons, The ones in this game that are not in monster hunter might be the unused types that they somehow got their hands on. The maker of the original game said that they had a few other weapon types they ended up scrapping in testing cause they just did not work out right and that they planned on having magic in the game but scrapped that to make it feel more grounded and real.
Actually there's some sketchy leaked server files somewhere nobody has been able or bothered enough to make it work but i guess it could be possible
I saw this one as a teen like 8 years ago when i was searching for mh fix anywhere i could. I thought that it looked like a chinese bootleg and returned to lamenting lack of frontiers in the west. Thanks for awakening memories.
I remember this! I swear it was shut down a long time ago. This game was amazing when i wanted my MH fix on the big screen back in the MHFU days
"Can I copy your homework?"
"Yea, just change it up a bit so it's not obvious"
Love the vids man, there is not many people like you who really put passion in mh videos in this platform anymore.
Rage Gaming is one
Never thought I would see the day where I'd see a Na'vi and Kratos in one setting...
It sucks that there are devs in China making completely original games, but all we see from China here in the west are rip off versions of already popular games. Because of their nonexistent copyright laws, why even be creative? Even Genshin Impact, a game that had an $100 million dollar budget, straight ripped off so many BOTW features/aesthetics when the strength of that game comes from its storylines and complex characters. People called it a cheap clone at launch, but it ended up paying off for them as free advertising as the game is positively received now. It seems like the safe option for chinese devs is to rip the hell out of the most popular games at launch, and then make the game you really want.
Let me just say your videos are super cozy.
Love the style of narration over monhun(ish) b-roll while smooth, smooth jazz plays.
Peace my man
Great video man, shame you can't play this anymore
Unironically, Kratos being a crossover skin would be sick.
Honestly Chain hammer sounds like a good consepte for a weapon, a heavy hitting weapon with ranger capabilites and a mechanic similar to the clutch claw/puppet spider but less op, I will be down for that.
magnet spikes already exist
@@MarieTheLegend Im fully aware of that, I mained it when I played frontier, but I said a chain hammer not a magnetic arc blade with a baseball hammer like movement, equipped with nuclear bomb.
Now the CHAIN HAMMER actually feels like something that could maybe be introduced into Monster Hunter (Maybe different mechanics so Hammer never becomes obsolete but is instead still the Stun King while Chain Hammer could, perhaps DEBUFF the monster instead? Have the weapons be more likely to inflict blights?)
I actually remembering playing this. The only memory I have is how I was walking to the first area in a ravine or something, hills on both sides.
How does this game exist, and wasn't legally oblitorated?
This is freakin insane.
It doesn’t, and it was
0/10 no Gunlance >:(
Holy shit. I thought it was going to be something like Toukiden or God Eater, but this. This here is next level shameless.
I played a bit of Hunter Blade and I had a pretty good time with it. I used the wand which was a weird change but it was a decent time for when I played it. This video was fun though because I briefly thought I had imagined this game
Oh yeah me too.
That thing sucked until you unlocked some of the skills for it, like the aoe damage zones. It's the main reason I miss that game
@@jesfest I think what made the wand stick out to me was how different it played. I just wanted something fresh at the time even if it sucked
>mentions Christopher Judge
>clearly is T.C. Carson Kratos
I feel like dauntless actually did a pretty good job at not being a MH clone. It feels like a somewhat well polished more casual version, but still has some original competitive elements and ideas like omnicells and weapon specials, and a weekly speedrunning contest. I love both franchises.
clickbait then: game you may think is good is actually shit
clickbait now: game you may think is shit is actually good
3:01 THEY WERE AHEAD OF THEIR TIME
I now consider giant mosswine as canon to monster hunter
I've low-key wished MH had at least one "magic" weapon since a little after I started playing, especially after reading the artbook notes. IG finally made it in but still no magic staff and talismans.
Of course given the limited lore behind magic in MH it might be hard to integrate into the setting (since contrary to the insistence of a lot of fans who will openly and flagrantly deny reality in order to discourage Souls fans from getting into Monster Hunter, the series has a lot of lore and generally tried to make gameplay in some way consistent with that lore). Since only elder dragons have actual magic, it would have to either be a weapon class that was completely unavailable until at least the end of low rank (when the first ED encounter usually occurs), have extremely limited early crafting options and only be dragon element (which certainly seems like it would be a sort of "ultimate" element but of course apart from the raths and a few others it's really only good for hunting EDs anyway) since the only way dragon magic enters the ecosystem as a whole is via dracophage bugs and dragonfell berries (and the things that consume them), or just be "magic" in big fat scare quotes and actually be like a flamethrower or something that uses monster elemental sacs to spew elemental beams and clouds, which I feel like pulls away a lot of the mystique of some kind of shaman carrying a crook and talismans.
What mh fans are running around scaring dark souls fans away by saying “BOO!! This game has no lore!!!”?
@@sekiro_the_one-armed_wolf I'm gonna guess that your first exposure to MH was after World came out so most MH fans you spoke to were also new ones. It used to be the prevailing sentiment in the English-speaking community for the game, that Souls fans were somehow ruining the games by coming to the series and comparing it incessantly to Dark Souls, and despite the latter's combat system literally being derived from MH and despite MH having intricate lore, they would go as far as denying that there was any similarity in the gameplay of the two series or that MH had any lore beyond "there is a monster, you gotta go kill it."
I always thought they were crazy, but seeing the way the last 3 major titles as well as the upcoming one have pandered to anyone and everyone except fans of any game before Generations, I'm starting to think they had a point about "outsiders" somehow "ruining the series" even if their assertions about the game were factually false.
LOL This clone MH looks like bullshit but it is actually the best MH clone that I have ever seen (In terms of accurate MH mechanics and gameplay).
man i remember playing a lot of this game with my friend. it was the only way for us to play a monster hunter game together. aside from managing to play Frontier or use xlink kai to play online on the PSP.
so yeah before 4U playing mh with your friend online was a pain in the ass. xlink kai, ad hoc party, cracking frontier on pc or xbox, nobody had a wii U to play online so we where stuck on the 3ds version of 3G and local multiplayer etc.
so even if this game was a pure knockoff, it manage to fill a void for us european at that time. its also why dauntless was so hype at that time.
plus you had more RPG element than MH. you had a competence/skill tree system where you could spent point to unlock new move. its a long time so i barely remember but i'm sure that i mess aroud in the dual sword skill tree and unlocked some new demon mode move.
i already know this will be a banger
That confident BILLIONS of subscribers by next week line was amazing! Earned a sub!
Well, your other words were amazing too, but that's the line that sunk it xD
It’s a Chinese game, what do you expect? They copy everyone and have no homemade success at all
Aw man I forgot about this game. I remember hating on this game back in the day (I was just getting good with my 3rd MonHun game). Now being a veteran I would've love to Tri this game.
Ay bruh why you gotta call Dauntless a clone like that 0:12. I think it was a bit of a ripoff at the start but their have been almost three years of updates and I think it is its own game now.
A year late but I think he means just the concept, though the loop of dauntless is a little different, your still fighting big monsters, learning there patterns, and killing them more than once for their cool looking gear. Dauntless is just a toned down monster hunter with more fantastical creatures.
Reject Monster Hunting.
Return to the Jurassic World.
Bruh if you‘re gonna rip off a monster why would you choose blangonga lmao
They only had 1, 2, and tri back then. Probably couldn’t manage to rip a ton of tri monsters before it got shut down.
Mom I want Monster Hunter!
We already got Monster Hunter at home!
The Monster Hunter at home:
I totally agree with your first statement "Monster hunter has had games" wholeheartedly
Capcom should just buy the hunter blade ip and rebrand it as the new monster hunter frontier.
Is that Dark Souls in my Monster Hunter or Monster Hunter in my Dark Souls?
Defunct. Good. No matter how fun, plagiarism is awful.
this somehow feels like someone who really like MonHun and wanted an MMO version of it but didn't have enough creativity to make an entirely new thing so they just CTRL C V'd and then added any new ideas they could and pushed it, I think this is because from the sounds it was only cosmetics in the shop which makes me think the creator wasn't 100% greed, just like, 70% at most
OH MY GOD I thought I would never see anyone cover this game again. I was just thinking about hunter blade, again. I remember this game, tons of screenshots. I remember the pvp weird werewolf mode. Like what. Also the starting and end game armor was SICK> the promo for the game I loved, it was such a shame i didnt have the proper time to grind it out but also I hit the hardest wall in the game. I loved this game though. Along with ZMR. Shout out to people who played Japanese mmo monster hunter and the chinese mmo. I love Hunter Blade, to this day I have the original installation preserved waiting for the day We can resurrect it!
The fact that I recognised the Khezu SO FAST is concerning to me....
Imagine a mode for monster Hunter where one player controls the monster and and the rest are hunters. Kinda like evolve but more simple.
I would maybe like a uh... porcupine monster. Also I know that Rajang covers the bases of Boarlike monster, but a giant bullfango is neat. I saw a plant monster so that's cool. Most of these ideas for monsters are nice or cute. Although monster hunter has monsters that cover these bases in some way, but that plant monster would be fun to see. Would be very interesting to see a defensive, somewhat limited movement wyvern that requires you to think a bit smart with dodging, just like with those vines in the clip.
Rajang is a boar? Also...there is already a giant bullfango monster, called bulldrome.
It seems clunkier than even Monster Hunter 1, and Monster Hunter 1 was CLUNKINESS HELL!
That plant monster has got me wanting an official Monster Hunter x Little Shop of Horrors crossover. Bring on the Audrey 2 and ultimate version "Hangry Audrey 2".
Capcom, FEED MEEEEEEE!!
Semi Off-topic but Dauntless did the genre really well, it's like MH light. made me get into MH in the first place
I do find it funny that so many monsters look.. Well, weird and unique (ignore that they're ripoffs for a moment) but then you get to the small monsters and herbivores and it's just straight up regular dinosaurs, mammoths and etc that look like they came from a ps2 Turok game.
I love that the majority of going back in time in the Monster Hunter and Monster Hunter adjacent series' is all crunchy, compressed old internet video quality
All right ngl, as much as I hate Invaders in souls games, the thought of someone being able to invade you during a Monster hunt sounds kinda fun in theory.
When the copy is so close to the original that watching a review makes you want to play the original.
Lumping dauntless in with this feels really unfair
It really is since don't list his free to play and very open with how it runs itself making it easy and accessible to f****** everybody. At least I don't have to wait for a DLC for character customization to be a thing. Not to mention a learning curve is a lot easier.
I feel like this game’s existence shows how much influence monster hunter has had on games, but blatant plagiarism aside I’m sure these people would love to work on an actual monster hunter title someday and then they can convince Capcom to add a giant Mosswine in Monster hunter 6
I was truly shocked to find out what country this game originated from
To be fair, one thing I've always found to be lacking in monster hunter games is the fact I can't start violent wrestling in savage arena against my friends.
Maybe they're onto something here!
17:05 this footage hit home for me for some reason, lol
The flying fading text, the dude stopping a hunt to shit on the invader via in-game chat. Peak 2012 mmo TH-cam video...
The monster design actually looks really cool.
I don't even know anything about Monster Hunter, but I grew up in a way on this era's type of mmos where I know if I was a fan when this was out I'd have been all over it. Back in 2012 I feel you'd be shocked to see something fulfilling its' purpose so well. I've got to say, games you've made relationships with fading to time is a pretty tough deal. They're lonely memories. Makes me jealous you have a way to vocalize it.
I'm in no way ready for the e-shops closing in March.....
The way you pronounce wyrm takes me off guard every time lol.
