      Do you remember when someone told you that you have to cut silveros' tail in mhfu? And then you get to the tail and instantly die because it does as much damage, whatever is the current monster's state (attacking with tail does as much damage as getting hit by it when the monster screams for example, and if it makes its *i'm mad so i scratch the ground* animation: IT . HITS . 3 . TIMES . A SECOND. Meaning you get practically oneshoted by it whatever is your armor, weapon or whatever you're doing as long it makes you go under the tail.)

      YES! I HATED GARUGA IN 4U. So was in PTSD mode when it came in Iceborne. But then the fight began and now... it's up there with Seething and Ruiner as one of my favourite fights. They took out all the BS with moves that had no tell, or obvious way to avoid. But still kept it's insane personality. Tons of moves that keep you on your toes, but never feels unfair.

      I disagree. I feel that i IB they did him dirty. He feels so slow and is attacks do like no damage. Not to mention he has odogaron tail flip levels of tiny hitbox attacks. The moveset changes are good, but he's slow, does no damage,has tny hitboxes and only has 2 turf wars ( both of which suck) and he honestly just feels like a pathetic, crippled version of himself. Very similar to deadeye in that regard for me.

I think that was mostly personal experience. But still I hated the times that him and even kut ku would just lunge forward with no warning. Felt cheap. Are there any fights in IB that you think are cheap? Or maybe a better way of phrasing it... any you do find challenging? And just so I can get an idea, what weapons do you use?

      Mhfu is the one that gave me nightmares.
      The tail oneshots you when it isn't attacking. I'm not joking, the tail kills you actually faster than silveros' most damaging attack ( the claw attack, insane damage, gives poison and ALWAYS stuns you). Oh and the tail is hard as sh*t to cut cause of the sharpness needed and the amount of damage you have to deal. The only way you can cut the tail is by making him fall and by putting 4 entire combos on the very end of it.

  • @ryaquaza3offical
    @ryaquaza3offical 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I really not sure if I’d call this an upgrade, especially when you can only really fight them in a normal area they are basically impossible to separate and stay in the same area making the fight pretty boring or frustrating depending on how prepared you are. It’s like the tower experience except instead of it being a unique location with unique music and the fact your locked in there with them, it’s the same old music and area and you can just run away whenever. Doesn’t help their move set, especially on Rathian gets super repetitive once you learn to avoid her attacks.
    If you fought them in pervious games in areas like the swamp they can appear where ever whenever, and if your fighting both of them they can be difficult to keep apart but not impossible, giving some variety in locations and something else to keep track of, in world if your fighting both of them, your fighting both of them, there’s nothing you can do about it. It’s kinda like they wanted to make the tower style fight without actually putting the effort in to make an arena, resulting in probably the most stubborn raths I’ve ever seen when it comes to travel.
    I’ve never found the metal raths that enjoyable to fight, same thing with most rathalos variations (especially dreadking, screw that spam lord!) but the world versions of gold and silver just feel boring to fight, if not cheap in the case of silver rathalos. So like a lot of things in world I really wouldn’t consider this an upgrade in any way besides graphically

    • @Sunaki1000

      Gold is the only Rath worth coming back. She is kinda need to fight, mostly fair, had all of Rathians Moves and is a need Challenge.
      Dreadqueen is to agressive whit Poison that potent. And to big to avoid reliably, but otherwhise very unique and interesting.
      Cant understand why he described Dreadking as "unique". Hes fast and had an Atomic Blast, thats it.

      That's fair, at least what you said about locations
      I think the Iceborne movesets are the most complex they've ever been for these monsters, and can be more enjoyable for that reason. While this is not much of an argument, I personally find them fresh and exciting. Plus I've always been a fan of the rare Raths. It's like they're the core strengths of the Raths at the fullest capacity (true mastery over sky and land).

    Although quite a niche thing I really enjoyed how they changed up my experience as a former Great Sword main (I really dislike the Greatsword in World) when I first fought them in 2nd G . The way I had to relearn charge timings and positioning to hit the wings or their "shoulder" where the wings connected to their body instead of the head made it feel like an entirely different fight and I really enjoyed them in that game.

    Man I'm so glad you talked about how clutch claw actually makes some fights better. It's something I hardly ever hear when people talk about the pros and cons of the clutch claw, and although I still think the claw has a lot of flaws, it has the potential to make flying enemy fights in particular much more fun. Velkhana is my favorite monster in Iceborne, partly because I just really like icy dragons, but also because I think the fight is exceptionally well designed. What's relevant to this conversation though is how 2 out of Velkhana's 3 flying attacks, which also happen to be the most common ones she uses in the air, can be completely dodged using clutch claw. This allows the fight itself to work in weakening her sides and wings much better once you understand that these flying attacks are openings for clutch weakening, just like Silverlos and Goldian do.

    I honestly really don't like fighting any of the Rath variants in Iceborne, or Legiana, or basically anything that spends the whole fight in the air. Sure, it was too easy to bully Rath before iceborne, but was the correct response to that making Rath the most annoying fight in the game next to "Oh look your iceblighted again" Velkana?
    I'm not the kinda player who sees the monster being in the air 90% of the fight as a "challenge to be overcome", I see it as Capcom just making a bad fight that isn't fun or even worth doing tbh. Although to be fair, I hate a lot of the BS in these games, like getting hit by attacks that didn't actually touch you, the hitboxes in this game are all kinds of whack, Monsters hit you with the air 7 feet away from their tail, but you can swing a longsword through their chest and you miss because only the tip entered the monster. its dumb.

      You cant even clutch onto his head, because his wind pushes you...
      A wind what covers most of his body, except! the head.

    Hey Herny, great video! I just want to comment on what you said about these kinds of videos as the start, about trying to compare them without having a "clear winner". Honestly, even if your goal is to make the comparison as fair and as "objective" as possible, I think it's totally fine to be honest with yourself and your audience about your own preferences when you make them. Our feelings are always going to influence the way we analyze and compare monsters (or most things related to game design). If our goal is to be fair and objective, we have to take a step back and take stock of those preferences, and I think it's best to share what we've noted with the audience so they can understand where we're coming from, so that we can compare our own tastes and experiences with yours when we take in your info and your arguments.
    For example, for the Ranjang comparison video, as someone who had watched your Generations Rajang guide a few times, it was pretty clear to me that you loved that monster's original design and that this was informing the frustrations you were sharing with new Rajang. But for me, who rarely hunted it in the old games and who ended up getting a ton of Tempered Rajang T3 investigations in Iceborne, I ended up liking new Rajang a bit more; and knowing where you're coming from, what your preconceptions about the monster were, it was a lot easier to understand and consider your thoughts on new vs old Rajang.
    I'm sure I'm not teaching you anything you haven't already considered, but personally as an audience member, I enjoy it when creators open up about their own thoughts and feelings when they analyze games (and media and general), even if it's just to give us a "disclaimer" of sorts.

    @1:40 I'm not sure I see what the issue is. The video was meant to address the grievances with the new Rajang in comparison to the old. It was a far more critical video because you had genuine critiques of the new Rajang. Maybe this is a "creator disgruntled with his own work" syndrome very common among creative people such as yourself, but I think this self-beat up was a biiiiit unnecessary.
    To be fair tho I hate new Rajang so a video honestly analyzing his moveset and pointing out the clear design flaws in his fight instead of the typical "lol git gud scrub" I get from this community was a bit cathartic so I can't say I'm not biased.

    • @riemaennchen
      @riemaennchen 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I wouldn't say he becomes more mobile. He "moves" more because he slides a lot and keeps falling over but his attack frequency goes down quite a bit if you break his claws. Especially in areas with walls for him to jump on it makes a huge difference. Without broken claws he can chain his jumping attacks pretty much nonstop.

    • @nollkokossus7446
      @nollkokossus7446 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      riemaennchen and that’s the problem. Sure he attacks less when you break his wings, but you also get to attack him less, because you are to busy chasing after the damn bastard because he slit 10km away. He would need to be incapacitated for longer for that to be a true downside for him.
      The fight will get less intense yes, I agree with that, but it will not really cut down on your kill time, since he is probably already back on his feet and starting the next attack before you even reach him.

Now I find Rathalos more fun.
