The idea of moving the hunt to a vertical ascent is cool and it made sense to do after exploring deep below, but they remained on that for too long now... I miss the sea
Lagi without underwater combat is really not the same. Instead of fun attacks he just spams massive AOE lightning everywhere, completely losing the aforementioned ebb and flow he used to have. I honestly think that the wirebugs offer a good way of handling underwater combat so I hope they bring it back someday
Tri will always be my favorite Monster Hunter game. That game's atmosphere is of the charts. If anyone is interested, there are now private servers for the game. Unfortunately you can only play solo, but still, it's an option.
Tri and 3U mastered making you feel like these monsters were dangerous and mighty. Jhen Mohran jumped over the boat, in slow motion, roaring the whole time, unveiling the scope of what you face. Caedus barely registered you as a threat til you finally hurt it enough, then vocals kicked in during the actual confrontation, letting you know this was serious now. Freaking Miralis had the most suffocating music, not in loudness or being too much, but by being insanely epic and pressing.
honestly, just having lagiacrus in a monster hunter game will never do it justice unless they bring water combat back. until that happens, lagiacrus will always seem like a stunted fight to me
Man I started with 3 ultimate and this took me down a huge nostalgia trip of trying over and over to kill this thing with my base duel blades cause I didn’t know how to upgrade (cause who read tutorials right?) great video I really enjoyed it :)
Tri was my introduction to monster hunter, and I have Thalassophobia so it took me a long time to even fight lagiacrus. I remember I did most of the online quests long before I even saw Lagiacrus offline. To this day, for whatever reason Monter hunter Tri and Tri ultimate are the only games where my phobia doesnt matter. I really do miss the underwater combat, it was really good.
i wish the series experimented more like back in those days verticality added, new tools to use, more monster designs (monsters like agnaktor, that swims underground), while i appreciate that the 4th gen did to the series with monster variety and new weapons, it removed a lot of the ambience that the series had during those game and replaced it with the color orange and a steep angle
@@bri1085 I grew up with playstation. My first nintendo console was the Wii, where I played brawl and Metroid prime. And then Monster Hunter Tri. I still havnt touched a single Zelda game. Same goes with Mario. I bought the Wii:U specifically for Tri Ultimate.
That took me back way back when I didn't even know what a Fatalis was. Tri was my childhood and debut as a rookie. Never will I forget the first time swimming in the blue waters, watching the Epioth's gracefully swim around, before one was being torn apart by a Lagiacrus' jaws. Lagiacrus was my teacher as Nargacuga or Gore Magala is for others. That thing had given me nightmares when I first saw it and I immediately fled the area. And I had a blast when I was finally strong enough to take it on. It was even my go to armor all the way through Tri, mixing the low and high rank armor sets. In 3U I was always seen in the armor of one of the three Lagias. Seeing Mizutsune again and how they handled a huge leviathal like Almudron so well is giving me hope for a grand return. Fingers are crossed that he might rise out of the sea once more. On a completely different note, I love the choice of music.
I will *never* forget the sheer terror of Lagiacrus interrupting my first ever hunt for Monster Guts playing my Dad's Friend's copy of the game. Lagiacrus' theme, to this day, is still one of the best ones for me with its sheer bombast, and like the mosnter itself, perfectly encapsulates a fraught and perilous fight at sea.
I'm so glad I found your videos, as someone that started with World, you're making me want to play all these older games. Holy hell Abyssal Lagiacrus, such a sick name and it looks so cool!
Lagiacrus is my favourite monster in Monster Hunter. It's not necessarily my favourite monster to hunt, though it's very fun. I'm just in love with it's design, and the art surrounding it is absolutely beautiful. Lagiacrus is the reason why I want underwater combat to return to the game.
I think Lagiacrus would best fit in MH6 with the revamped return of underwater combat. It's my favorite monster (Abyssal specifically) and I just can't stand seeing it in a fully landlocked setting. I also wouldn't mind all that much if they did the Somnacanth method of having it "pseudo-swim" through shallow water. In any case, fantastic video! I loved the discussion on cultural influences.
I miss Monster Hunter Tri. My first exposure to the series, and personally, I loved the underwater combat. It was fresh and exciting, and the creatures were glorious to behold!
Another great video, very well made. I've never played Tri myself, but I've been meaning to. I hear lots of good things about it, and it just seems like a great game
I still remember High Rank Lagiacrus being extremely hard in the Flooded Forest in Tri, not just because the damage it did, but also because of the lack of visibility, but in single player it's extremely satisfying to fight, and eventually conquer!
Tri was my first experience with monster hunter, and Lagiacrus was my first and favourite big monster. I do hope that we see the great lightning crocodile again, and I've no doubt we will in the near future. Its reign may be over for now, but Lagiacrus will always be my king.
I kind if wish they had doubled down on underwater combat I get why they didn't, double the work for something most players dont like, but games need to trow curveballs from time to time so the player doesn't get to confortable resting on his laurels and underwater combat fills that role by fliping the table changing the rules making you relearn everything you took for granted like it's your first hunt again
Even though the Lagiacrus is meant to be an underwater fight due to its design and behaviour, I’ll still be a firm believer in bringing him back for Sunbreak meanly out of fan service but also, like you pointed out, the fact that Rise was able to bring back leviathans and honestly make them fun even without underwater. Basically, I am on huge amounts of copium for the return of my favourite monster in the whole series!
It’s said that you never forget your first. Tri was my introduction to the series, and seeing this gorgeous beast emblazoned on the cover was what convinced me to try it, out of all the dusty games my friend had in his garage. I didn’t expect the game to hook me so quickly, and ever since then I’ve kept up with the series even if I didn’t have the means to play newer entries until World. As such, Lagiacrus was *the* face of my Monster Hunter experience. Though I developed deeper rivalries with other (more troublesome) monsters, Lagiacrus remained the closest to my heart. As you broke down in the video (in a way I’ve had trouble articulating), its design is simply fantastic and it really spoke to my childhood love of Godzilla as well, this colossal sea beast with glowing spines that commands fear and respect. Even removed from the franchise as a whole, the design has the strength to stand on its own legs. I’ll continue to bang the drum for Lagiacrus’s return, even if underwater combat (which I never found that bothersome) seems unlikely to ever return. Thank you for the video, and I’ll be sure to share it with my friends.
A comparison like that is a great compliment, thank you! Sam is incredibly talented at making subtle and engaging editing, which I found to be really inspiring and helped me learn a lot about video production while making this video!
Underwater combat should make a return but instead locking the hunters to the ocean floor just like when hunting on land. This will allow the combat to be generally similar during on land while still allowing aquatic monsters to utilize their full moves. In a way it would make fighting a Lagiacrus in water similar to fighting a Rathalos on land, with Lagiacrus being able to "fly" by swimming while the hunter is on the ground.
Lagiacrus was the monster that got me into the series, with Tri, seeing Lagicrus go from Lord of the Sea to Lord of the Mediocre was like getting punched in the gut, I remember back in Tri it took me well over 30 attempts a months to finally best Lagiacrus, in Generations I beat Lagiacrus on the first attempt with no real challenge, and while part of it could be attributed to how much I had improved from Tri and 4 Ultimate, it also shows just how badly Capcom De-toothed Lagiacrus by Landlocking the Leviathans that had previously been able to go underwater and be fought on their home turf, Lagiacrus was also the first monster that forced me to change strategies, swapping from the Lance to the Great Sword and actual get better armor, as my gear up until Lagiacrus was fairly static with very little in the way of upgrades or improvements.
This was the first monster Hunter game I’d ever played and it was with my older brother I remember never really playing the game but always just running to fight Lagiacrus over and over. I’d never win, but I kept challenging it. This game is very nostalgic
I don’t care what anybody says, I miss the underwater fights, the oxygen meter micromanaging and disorientating camera angles. It might’ve been annoying in the beginning but once I got that down, I loved it. Tri was my my first title first title!
Totally agree. Once I felt comfortable in the water fighting well gave a different kind of satisfaction as compared to fighting on land. Fighting in the water was a dance, and as a hammer main, I really didn't feel too inhibited by it.
If only they had replaced the janky water fighting and shifted it to Boat fighting these sea creatures. Could you imagine customizing your own Ship with dragonators and what have you while dragging out massive beasts hiding in the depths ?
Tri was my first game as a kid, i used to suck and i never got past gobul, so i just spent time mostly exploring. the underwater cave with the ludroth was pretty rad aswell
This feels a bit speculative. Lagiacrus resembles a Crocodilian, as well as an Plesiosaur, famous aquatic Animals. Furthermore his Electricity might be related to Electric Eels, you can see a potential Reference in the Shape of its Tail. His Element is likely choosen to give him an Edge over his strongest Rival underwather the Plesioth, who is weak to thunder, and maybe even Ceadeus who could easily overpower the Leviathan but might be disscoraged in trying after a strong Discarge. Oh yeah you make a Reference to some of that later, sorry.
my best friend in middle school bought me 3u for my birthday bc he had no one else to play monster hunter with. i became obsessed and hunting this thing with him after school along with all the other monsters is a great memory from when I was young. Ceadeus is probably one of my favorite monsters of all time. The fight, although annoying was so epic.
I would love for underwater to come back in MH6 that would be amazing. It would make the game more difficult and add more depth to the games if it became a permanent addition. I would also like to see seasons be implemented in MH6 and all future games.
I know I'm in the minority, but Monster Hunter feels incomplete without underwater combat and mechanics. It just adds so much depth to the immersion and gameplay, both. Deserted Island is one of my all-time favorite maps.
Monster hunter 3 ultimate on the 3ds was my first Monster hunter game and it is still my favorite. The underwater combat on the 3ds is way easier and the lagiacrus is my favorite leviathan .
the devs clearly want new players to experience lagiacrus they've tried to put it in several games now I do hope that lagiacrus brings water combat with it, so we can all experience lagiacrus properly
Tri was my first MH experience at a young age. I remember loathing underwarer combat and especially having to farm Lagi, but I was a DB main and I've come to learn that was among the worst-adapted to underwater. I wouldn't mind getting a port so I can give it another try with lance.
Mh3u was my first anything for MH. Roamed around freely, went swimming and saw Lagiacruz. Started swimming towards me and I booked it back to the beach. He hopped out of the water and I just went back to the village lmao
As someone who only has played world, gu and rise I really want to see an underwater setting with lagiacris and Abbysal lagiacris cus they just look so cool
It's such a shame underwater combat got cut from the newer games. It was a lot of fun, but most of the fandom seems to have hated it, so unfortunately I doubt it'll come back.
A lot of the monsters in 3U, specifically the water monsters, were very cool. Its such a shame that the water combat was just so unfun to play in. I was happy when they added him to Generations since Lagiacrus is such a cool design.
I’ve always liked how different each game is. If I want water combat, I got 3U. If I want to play a fast paced, movement-oriented game, I have rise. If I want to suffer with a smile, I have FU. Each game has this feel that no other version really recreates and it makes each that much more special. If they ever bring back underwater combat, I hope it’s so different from tri that they keep their charm. I never want to be deterred from another game solely because one game has “better gameplay.” A similar experience can go for having gore magala in a game. It’s fine in G and GU since it’s supposed to have the all as a celebration, but I feel the magic of Gore and its story should be relegated to 4th gen. All the fanboys can shove it and shut it. If Gore is to return, it should be a new monster filling a similar role or Gore has its own side story since it’s not just gore that’s has to come, Frenzy has to come, too. Only then will I accept it. All I can say is that blindly adding in a feature can ruin the experience by making it less special. All the mechanics that made something good or memorable could end up missing or being not as enjoyable as nostalgia had originally said. In conclusion, Fuck Gore Magala and every person who spams comments about it being added in an update like a child. Zinogre and valstrax fans were less annoying. Thank you
Lagiacrus without aquatic combat is just not complete. It's a weak monster, fighting on land while being aquatic... Is just as if they introduced Gobul land only, completely useless. That's why I want the reintroduction of aquatic combat from now on, it's a new dimension, with many new oportunities...
"Defeating Abyssal Lagiacrus requires the player to master the mechanics and be as adept at hunting underwater as it would on dry land" or to hide behind a rock and shoot at it with the kelbi bow until it dies
Hey! Please, add your email somewhere. It might be the description to the videos or in a pinned commentary or or in the channel info. We have a partnership offer for you :)
as much as the underwater combat annoyed me, i do still wish they had kept it, becuase it allows for lots of very interesting monsters.
i agree. they should have expanded and perfected it, instead of doing away with it all together
The idea of moving the hunt to a vertical ascent is cool and it made sense to do after exploring deep below, but they remained on that for too long now... I miss the sea
@@AndrewTheUltraBoss99 I feel the beginning of a sea shantie
The underwater combat was made for the greatsword. You go from a slow and slightly clumsy powerhouse to a graceful dealer of pain. It was fantastic.
Maybe in sunbreak they will expand on underwater combat and focus on perfecting it, witch would bring a lot to the table for fights
Lagi without underwater combat is really not the same. Instead of fun attacks he just spams massive AOE lightning everywhere, completely losing the aforementioned ebb and flow he used to have. I honestly think that the wirebugs offer a good way of handling underwater combat so I hope they bring it back someday
It's just a thunder element Royal Ludroth subspecies, without it, sadly..
I agree. Landlocked Lagi just isn't the same. Underwater combat itself wasn't that bad; it was a fun shake up of the usual gameplay loop.

For me Lagiacrus is the best rival of Rathalos. Sure Astalos and Seregios are cool but Lagiacrus was the original, and is way more symbolic.
Don't badmouth Steve!

2:00 *WHAT*
Damn, you're right. Mind=Blown.
your voice is very soothing
Hated the swimming in those games but Lagiacrus somehow made it fun!
the devs clearly want new players to experience lagiacrus
they've tried to put it in several games now
I do hope that lagiacrus brings water combat with it, so we can all experience lagiacrus properly
Underwater combat Desperately needs to comeback. Lagi and Ceadeus need a return to the series
Diving into the water to chase after Lagi made me feel so badass, considering how much of a handicap we get and advantage it gets in that place.
Tri was my first MH experience at a young age. I remember loathing underwarer combat and especially having to farm Lagi, but I was a DB main and I've come to learn that was among the worst-adapted to underwater. I wouldn't mind getting a port so I can give it another try with lance.
Loving the content, keep up man!
I miss him so much.😔
I really love this design of Lagiacrus, I wonder will it reappear in the 2020s
I miss the underwater gameplay so much. Such a unique gameplay mechanic in an already unique series of games.
Ah. My altime favorite monster, absolutely a classic.
Then you meet the plesioth. A fish with legs that can hipcheck space time and obliterate you.
Mh3u was my first anything for MH. Roamed around freely, went swimming and saw Lagiacruz. Started swimming towards me and I booked it back to the beach. He hopped out of the water and I just went back to the village lmao
As someone who only has played world, gu and rise I really want to see an underwater setting with lagiacris and Abbysal lagiacris cus they just look so cool
Always my favorite
Lagiacrus is my third favorite monster.
Mh3 holds a very special place in my heart
It's such a shame underwater combat got cut from the newer games. It was a lot of fun, but most of the fandom seems to have hated it, so unfortunately I doubt it'll come back.
this game was amazin had like 2.5 k hours on my wii xD i still remember being depressed when they took down the servers
I always thought the "hood" was like that of a matamata turtle. :)
A lot of the monsters in 3U, specifically the water monsters, were very cool. Its such a shame that the water combat was just so unfun to play in. I was happy when they added him to Generations since Lagiacrus is such a cool design.
Underwater in mh tri was amazing. Until world came out I didn't know that capcom removed it from all following titles.
"might return on sunbreak"
Oh i wish it was true..
I wish they had just placed I.Lagiacrus in Mhg/Mhgu, it makes more sense than just plopping the regular boi there
I started with MHgen on 3ds so I never realized the cool backstory and gameplay to Lagiacrus,
Especially not when it came to Hyper Lagiacrus...
Mh3U is my favourite Monster Hunter Game
MH6 needs Lagiacrus with underwater combat and if you argue otherwise you have to be cancelled!
I’ve always liked how different each game is. If I want water combat, I got 3U. If I want to play a fast paced, movement-oriented game, I have rise. If I want to suffer with a smile, I have FU.

Abyssal Lagi is peak Lagi

I wonder what Monster Hunter would feel like if they partnered with the Subnautica team?
Yes
i want my baby back in rise
oh heck yeah
Does the hunter get an advantage on land, or does he just lose a disadvantage?
Back after Lagi won 3rd place 🥲
I miss laggy

When’s this dude coming back in a new gen game he missed out with rise he’s the og leviathan same goes for agnaktor
"Defeating Abyssal Lagiacrus requires the player to master the mechanics and be as adept at hunting underwater as it would on dry land" or to hide behind a rock and shoot at it with the kelbi bow until it dies
