I love Josh for being like "cottons is gonna do cotton things and I have to suffer for it....but I fucking love it and am so excited for him" damn good friend there
If you guys don't remember, Cotton was seen when he was in the shower looking sad as Josh poured water on to him or the time they did profession cup water drinking when Josh tried to drink a cup of water when cotton was swinging the cup around. Those were two moments I remember vividly of Cotton.
1:09:20 Lala Barina has a move that is shown in the trailer that is actually very similar to what certain real world species of tarantulas do. Some species of tarantula will use their back legs to kick hairs off of their abdomen in to the air. They do this as a defense response. These hairs are very itchy and irritating, and you don't want to breathe them in. And during the trailer when her abdomen opens up in to a flower, it looks like she kicks loose some of the red "hairs" off of herself. I just thought it was kinda cool that it looks like they are using this behavior as inspiration.
Its been a long time since we’ve seen Josh in the flesh you look beautiful lol it’s so wholesome to see how passionate the monster hunter community is to the point where you can talk about it for hours.
What is the genuine difference between being able to heal/sharpen on Seikret in Rise, and being able to heal/sharpen in a different loading zone in older games? I think some of us oldheads are forgetting that our game series isn't always as hardcore tough as we say it is. Being able to retreat and recover 100% safely has always been a feature.
i find the "monster hunter wilds is going to be super grounded" thing funny, cause, like, longsword is literally just frontier longsword with a paint job, switch axe is nearly frontier switch axe with a paint job, gunlance and hammer both also got some frontier stuff, every weapon that can guard has adept guard without any of the downsides, dual blades and bow get adept dodge without any of the downsides, etc.
I mean adept dodge never really had any down sides (unless you are referring to the entire adept moveset). The dodge was pretty much just direct upgrade from what it a normal one
This moved to the top of my watch list the minute I saw it, and I was not disappointed. I love how much fun you guys had just chatting about monster hunter!
I'm really happy to see a podcast on this channel. I always thought y'all'd be great at it. I suppose I'm not super versed in podcasts, but for me it came across like you'd been doing these for years. Which in a way you have, of course, but it's great to see it in this format as well now.
It’s been really cool seeing so many in the community showing more of their irl side due to gamescom and wilds! Also, love the podcast style and the fact that you guys brought on Ruri!
"I want someone who understands what it's like too be too into a weapon" Yes that's me and insect glaive! And my weapon keeps being hurt. In base rise Wirebugs and changes to mounting contributed to a loss of identity for IG, Monster hunter Now still hasn't released the IG, and now in wilds we lose our Aerial reset! Well for real though, a demo is a demo so we don't know that the helicopter attack isn't unlockable down the road. I personally think because IG's aerial attack's are supposed to be for positioning and mounting (Our max DPS comes from ground combos), the removal of this has more to do with wounds. So mounting was shown to create wounds and if exploitation of wounds is as key as they show it to be the aerial combo being a multi strike with such a wide reach could pop multiple wounds at once. With the new kinsect attack's animations shown, weaving extract attack's into our base combos. I personally think were going to see new Kinsect Shaman focus play, as the ground combo's look largely the the same, nerfs to aerial play, but TONS of new kinsect animations and stuff including the ability to pull 1,2 or 3 essences at once and our focus attack being a revamped essence hunter shooting the kinsect like a god damn bullet! Awakened kinsect attack wishes!
Thank you guys for all your hard work during this *wild* time. I appreciate all the lost sleep and hours editing these crazy detailed vids extracting every possible drop of content from the few minutes of gameplay Capcom has given! Thank you!
Love the idea of this video, hope to see one with Cotton one day for sure, maybe even Josh and Hollow along talking about the first impressions after finishing the base game, fighting new DLC Monsters or the almost sure "G-Rank" like expansion, it'll be great to see this model more ofthen
This will be the best mh game ever, but what would make it even better is if some monsters could actively hunt us down if their hungry; like imagine walking into the scarlet jungle trying to hunt Lala, but tou hear (if you're listening closely) soft foot steps and hisses from the brush. You then get closer to Lala's nest and see red eyes jump at you and it a nargacuga trying to eat you - causing a hunt to insue and maybe youde use the Lala to get the narga off your back and extra damage on your target.
This was truly awesome just watching you guys nerd out over MHWilds… Me and my friends have never been more pumped to play a game! Here is to hoping its first quarter 2025 fellow Hunters!
I do side with Aaron with saying that sometimes variety is the spice of life with trying out different weapons more rather than what just what you main. Now on the other hand, there’s nothing wrong with having a familiar choice to always default to and being an expert in. I consider myself a Bow Main, but I’m not as wholly devoted to just playing only Bow. It all comes down to what you enjoy playing and if you are curious to try out weapons you don’t normally use. There’s 14 weapons, but not everyone plays them all.
From what I've been hearing/reading, the Scarlet Forest being connected to the Windward Plains via the river isn't just a geological thing, but we'll actually be able to go from locale to locale. I've seen a handful of people talk about how the devs said in a past interview that the locales are seamlessly connected to one another. Like the Guiding Lands, but fully realized in the form of their long-term dream of having an open world Monster Hunter. If it's true and they've finally pulled it off, this game is going to be even more incredible than I was expecting, and I'm so ready for it.
hey guys!! i used to watch binge watch your minecraft videos when i was a kid on my ipad, you probably shaped half my humor lol. i don't know a thing about what you talk about now but i'm glad you all are still making content. ❤ wishing you good luck!!
34:08 Strait facts! The charge blade isn't a complex weapon, It's a neurodivergent weapon! It's a little bit confusing to learn, but then it's a weapon and a fidget toy in one weighted sparkling blanket😊
I do remember what cotton looks like from him streaming mh3u and he's your average large lad and I was very hyped when I found out he was basically me not just in personality but physical form as well.
I’m sitting here after seeing the thumbnail thinking the guys I saw were “Rurikhan” and it was some kind of streamer group and yall would just be talking in the background like normal 🤣 then I hear a voice I recognize and I’m like wait he’s real lmfao
Been a fan for a couple of years now... really glad to see your faces. Pleasantly surprised at how you look. Now for Cotton to man up and show us his freaky visage 😂
Always funny when ones image of someone is different than what you'd pictured in your mind... funniest part this time for ME... hollow looks like what I thought Josh looked... well clean shaven but right around that XD
30:40 Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think Rise Hunting Horn was this for me. For the longest time, it's the one weapon where I had never picked up until Iceborne because of the stigma of it being the "support weapon". Once I did, I actually really liked it and even went back to 4U and GU to play HH. Rise's version is still fun, but I wished there was an alternate Switch Skill that lets you revert it to how it used to work. Wilds' Hunting Horn seems to be a mix of both the Iceborne and Rise's version so I'm excited to try it out and see how it plays.
I believe they should bring back Blast Dash but as a more grounded dash that gives Gun Lance a gap closer to help the hunter get back in the fight faster when the monster moves away from the hunter.
Oh wow! faces! haha I remember seeing Josh's face back in the day when you guys we're still doing Minecraft videos. You have a different look now, lookin good! 😊
The only thing that was difficult about learning charge blade in world for me personally was actually charging the sword and shield otherwise it was the easiest one to get the hang of. But I'd say hunting horn is prolly the hardest to learn. Not that I've tried to, but it seems like a lot to keep track of in the middle of a hunt
I've never seen Josh's face and... it's nothing like I imagined. Hollow's fits with his. Just to clarify, nothing wrong with either. Handsome fellas. Edit : To me, Lala Barina seems like a red herring of an apex. She has such a wide web and affects the swamp greatly, so maybe she's the source of the inclemency in the scarlet forest, and the apex adapted to its webs and paralytic florets. Man I love speculation
Took me a solid minute to realize that I was looking at the 3 of them talking to each other on cam. I thought I was looking at random Wilds footage with 3 random dudes talking until one of them pulled out a cotton plushie and then I notice that his lips where in sync to what it was being said. omg.
I'll be honest..... I forgot ya'll guys had physical bodies.... I was 99% sure ya'll were hyped up disembodied voices from my dreams
I thought they were just their hunters in real life
Same i did not know that you guys are doing a face reveal / chat
😂😂😂😂
@@theinspiredgamer1949bwwwwwwjwwww
No Fr like tf you mean Josh isn't a black-haired woman with a giant sword irl
Cotton not being there proves he’s just a voice in Josh’s head
True, Josh managed to train an AI way before other Ai were ready. :D
I love Josh for being like "cottons is gonna do cotton things and I have to suffer for it....but I fucking love it and am so excited for him" damn good friend there
Cotton is gonna commit cotton picking 💀🤚
I was so used to the aylia model that I forgot josh had a male human body
Wait, Josh is not a bad Asian bitch!!!?
Cotton is actually Josh's alter ego
I thought we established that he was a voice in his head and no one else could actually hear him?
Yeah I don't know how I pictured Josh but I didn't expect similar to Cotton's character
@@usnairframer exactly. He exists, somewhere terrifying and pink, beyond our window in Josh's shattered psyche.
Nah he's Josh's stand
You know it’s strange seeing Josh’s face. Every time I hear his voice I picture an animated brunette with a bulb cut with a great sword on her back.
Me too to be fair
I still remember seeing him, in the video where they played mhw with messyourself
@@NoahCallenberg me too.
@@RageGamingVideos it must be so confusingly surreal looking in the mirror daily lol
If you guys don't remember, Cotton was seen when he was in the shower looking sad as Josh poured water on to him or the time they did profession cup water drinking when Josh tried to drink a cup of water when cotton was swinging the cup around.
Those were two moments I remember vividly of Cotton.
Cotton was on twitch a lot back in the day
Also, his TH-cam channel
Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one who remembers that.
I've been trying to find the video where I saw that one
@SunnyC.D.A221 if u do find the videos let me know 😊
1:12:50 Josh talking about wanting a swarm of insects like he didn't just have a heart attack from the swarm of spiders in Wukong yesterday.
But it was a fun heart attack!

Hollow is 1000X more handsome than I expected
I don't know what I was expecting, but the moment I saw the faces, I thought Hollow was Josh.
Yeah, he's a good looking fellow 😂
Dammit, YT, duplicating my comment lmao
Did you get your point across😂@@itol2398
and with that voice. if i speak...
100% down for more content like this!!! Especially with Cotton, once he’s allowed to see MH content again
"Cotton goes dark in social media" is Josh speak for " I locked him down in my basement with a food bowl and nothing else"
there's a Chinese water torture station, that's how he gets water at the cost of having no sleep.
I like how you do your hair Josh.
Love the podcast type content especially with ruri as the guest. Looking forward to more stuff like this
I’m more hyped that I finally see these wonderful people than for wilds
I don't know why, but they look like a 3 stage pokemon evolution, with Hollow the first stage and ruri the final stage. 😄
Podcast content? I am onboard with this.
I was wondering where Cotton was but then I remembered that he is on MH media lockdown…
Poor guy
It’s sucks for him. Buuut just the duo usable armor will make the wait worth it!
@@alexedwards5152 i also forgot about that
What does that mean?
@@janieraltreche1989 cotton is not allowed to followed ANY Wild updates. This has been the rule.
@@janieraltreche1989 he has pink hair and dresses like a 80s pimp. He will love female armor options for his wardrobe.
Oh my goodness! Faces! I was actually pretty surprised that Josh looked along the lines of what I imagined minus the mustache 😂
The mustache is certainly a surprise
Tbh I just imagined him as a male version of Aylia Lmao.
With the reveal of the no gendered armours, I’m exited and afraid for what insane outfits cotton will create
He's about to serve 👁👄👁💅
The age of the thighs has begun
I love how the mh content creators have a community too!
As a Destiny veteran and someone very new to monster hunter, I must say fashion is the real endgame.
I..... did not expect the mustache
Its been a long time since we’ve seen Josh in the flesh you look beautiful lol it’s so wholesome to see how passionate the monster hunter community is to the point where you can talk about it for hours.
I'm so happy to see Hollow. Being the introvert one from the RGV, he's just so chill
What is the genuine difference between being able to heal/sharpen on Seikret in Rise, and being able to heal/sharpen in a different loading zone in older games?
I think some of us oldheads are forgetting that our game series isn't always as hardcore tough as we say it is. Being able to retreat and recover 100% safely has always been a feature.
I imagine cotton in a straight jacket in joshes closet to stop him from seeing anything monster hunter related online
Josh looks as I imagined him freaking goat! What a legend 🔥
i find the "monster hunter wilds is going to be super grounded" thing funny, cause, like, longsword is literally just frontier longsword with a paint job, switch axe is nearly frontier switch axe with a paint job, gunlance and hammer both also got some frontier stuff, every weapon that can guard has adept guard without any of the downsides, dual blades and bow get adept dodge without any of the downsides, etc.

For some reason, Josh looks like he would own a deli in Paris
Thank you guys for all your hard work during this *wild* time. I appreciate all the lost sleep and hours editing these crazy detailed vids extracting every possible drop of content from the few minutes of gameplay Capcom has given! Thank you!
What do you mean Josh isn't a dark haired anime girl with red eyes equipped with a guy's voice and funky accent?
Soooooooooooo first time i see your face. Amazin. Epicness.. 🙏🙏🙏 i wish to be your friend forever lol

i was expecting a "Shields up Ironbreakers!" at the start, forgot which channel this was on for a second😂
52:06 poor cotten will be Overwhelmed if he starts wilds
What a hilarious and amazing video! The banter was spot on lads, earned another sub!
This was really awesome, it was nice to see the faces of the voices we heard for years
I have been watching so much monster hunter content I have never been more excited for a game
Been watching your videos for years!! A great day to see who you really are, joshs voice is soooo epic!!!!!
@Rurikhan Let's goooooooooo! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🛡
Don’t worry Hollow… I only think Great sword when I hear Josh’s voice. I’m glad you and Cotton provide a bit more variety 😂
Great podcast, looking forward for future episodes.

liking this podcast vidéo with real faces
I do remember what cotton looks like from him streaming mh3u and he's your average large lad and I was very hyped when I found out he was basically me not just in personality but physical form as well.
This is so weird.. its rather unusual to see the actual faces after almost 2 years following this channel.
This only just makes me want a 4 way hunt with all of you now. Great chemistry and awesome chat ❤
It’s so lovely to have some dedicated ‘rgv face time’ videos! I hope we see more of these in the future!
I'm so glad that Josh also rocks a stache. Makes my handlebars proud
face reveal?!
We've seen his face before, I believe in actual MH Sponsored content.
Oh nah, he revealed it a while ago
I've been on camera more than I haven't, mostly the MH era that it's been not haha
For newer fans I suppose? Allot of longtime fans have seen the faces of Josh, Cotton, and Hollow.
Hollow 👍👍
CB is indeed the most complex weapon in MH, but that doesn't mean it's very complex in general. It's just that the bar isn't very high. XD
i hope they do more of this especially with cotton when wilds comes out. fun watch.
Crazy this is my first time seeing what josh and hollow looks like
I’m sitting here after seeing the thumbnail thinking the guys I saw were “Rurikhan” and it was some kind of streamer group and yall would just be talking in the background like normal 🤣 then I hear a voice I recognize and I’m like wait he’s real lmfao
First time I see your faces and it’s great! I’ve been enjoying your videos for a long long time! Keep it up guys 💪🏻💪🏻
Awesome a rage gaming pod cast. I hope this continues. I love hearing from you guys.
Congalala get's a tenuous 2nd place in confirmation, because we know: where there's Rathalos, there's Rathian.
I think that helicopter blade will be in, I wouldnt be surprised to see some form of switch skills in the game from what we saw in the trailers.
Cotton is in the void on a mystical pink cotton adventure riding a pink duram
I remember seeing Josh's face on thr Iceland video for iceborn, but it still took me a moment recognizing him in this video
I never thought we would see Josh's face. This is incredible
can’t wait for RGV and TDS colab
Been a fan for a couple of years now... really glad to see your faces. Pleasantly surprised at how you look. Now for Cotton to man up and show us his freaky visage 😂
I love how they all have the same glasses great minds think alike obviously
I’m in love, I’d love to see them and cotton in one pro and noob. Like a new siege fight, and all four of them can do it together.!
Never thought I'd see the man who did mincraft speed build battles
Need more of these. I hope to be on one some day🙌🏽🙌🏽
Always funny when ones image of someone is different than what you'd pictured in your mind... funniest part this time for ME... hollow looks like what I thought Josh looked... well clean shaven but right around that XD
OMG!!! I’m feeling the “INMORTALITY GS BUILD IN WILDS”
30:40 Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think Rise Hunting Horn was this for me. For the longest time, it's the one weapon where I had never picked up until Iceborne because of the stigma of it being the "support weapon". Once I did, I actually really liked it and even went back to 4U and GU to play HH. Rise's version is still fun, but I wished there was an alternate Switch Skill that lets you revert it to how it used to work.
Wilds' Hunting Horn seems to be a mix of both the Iceborne and Rise's version so I'm excited to try it out and see how it plays.
I believe they should bring back Blast Dash but as a more grounded dash that gives Gun Lance a gap closer to help the hunter get back in the fight faster when the monster moves away from the hunter.
As a lance player....I hate to admit that I did in fact, get hyped when I saw the fourth poke.
Oh wow! faces! haha I remember seeing Josh's face back in the day when you guys we're still doing Minecraft videos. You have a different look now, lookin good! 😊
The only thing that was difficult about learning charge blade in world for me personally was actually charging the sword and shield otherwise it was the easiest one to get the hang of. But I'd say hunting horn is prolly the hardest to learn. Not that I've tried to, but it seems like a lot to keep track of in the middle of a hunt
Let’s go josh the god😮🎉
I love Josh's mustache. He looks like a friend of mine.
I'm so excited to use two charge blades.
Awesome! More podcast format please.
I've never seen Josh's face and... it's nothing like I imagined. Hollow's fits with his.
Just to clarify, nothing wrong with either.
Handsome fellas.
Edit : To me, Lala Barina seems like a red herring of an apex. She has such a wide web and affects the swamp greatly, so maybe she's the source of the inclemency in the scarlet forest, and the apex adapted to its webs and paralytic florets. Man I love speculation
Took me a solid minute to realize that I was looking at the 3 of them talking to each other on cam. I thought I was looking at random Wilds footage with 3 random dudes talking until one of them pulled out a cotton plushie and then I notice that his lips where in sync to what it was being said. omg.
The Colab we knew we needed 😁
With these apexs and nests I would like to see the monster that creates a mech (I can't remember how to spell it's name)
