Monster Hunter World podcast

 

Chiptune and rock musician Russell Gordon (@rus_gordon) and I talk about a MONSTER of a game, HUNTING down the best discussions for a WORLD of fun… It’s Capcom’s best-selling game of all time! We also mention the development and reception of the Monster Hunter series, Monster Hunter Tri on Wii and the day the music died when they closed its online servers, the complexity of these games despite their simplistic premise, viewing Monster Hunter World as a boss rush game, being prepared, crossovers, some thoughts on subscription services as paywalls for online multiplayer, World’s design decision to merge single-player and multiplayer gameplay, the awesome absurdity of the weapons, blending comedy and cartoonishness with realism, real-life hunting and how it’s not at all like Monster Hunter, poop lovin’ Deviljho, being disappointed by Zorah Magdaros, missing Lagiacrus, nostalgia for Jhen Mohran, a word on Iceborne and its scale, the endgame grind, and addressing the question of “animal cruelty” in our Monster Hunter World podcast.
