    Unfortunately, so far it's been kind of

    Segment details0:11–0:13 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_6
  8. 0:13

    bland, boring, lacking in a certain kind

    And as a Monster Hunter game goes, this

  26. 0:48

    basically exactly the same as every other

  27. 0:51

    They haven't really done anything new.

    Segment details0:53–0:54 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_27
  29. 0:54

    The classes are basically the same.

  30. 0:56

    You've got the gun lance thing with the

    Segment details0:59–1:01 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_31
  33. 1:01

    So it's basically everything you

    Segment details1:01–1:01 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_32
  34. 1:03

    would expect from a Monster Hunter game

    Segment details1:03–1:05 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_33
  35. 1:05

    with no new innovation, very typical of

    Segment details1:05–1:07 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_34
  36. 1:07

    Capcom.

    Segment details1:07–1:08 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_35
  37. 1:08

    They're just not very good at making

    Segment details1:08–1:09 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_36
  38. 1:09

    games.

    Segment details1:09–1:10 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_37
  39. 1:10

    I can't think of a single Capcom game

    Segment details1:10–1:11 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_38
  40. 1:12

    that's actually any good recently.

    Segment details1:12–1:13 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_39
  41. 1:14

    So first of all, the performance of the

    Segment details1:14–1:16 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_40
  42. 1:16

    Segment details1:16–1:18 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_41
  43. 1:18

    The graphics are terrible.

    Segment details1:18–1:19 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_42
  44. 1:19

    I don't know why a game coming out in 2025

    Segment details1:19–1:22 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_43
  45. 1:22

    looks like a game playing on the

    Segment details1:22–1:24 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_44
  46. 1:24

    PlayStation 2.

    Segment details1:24–1:25 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_45
  47. 1:26

    So even if you've got the latest GPU and

    Segment details1:26–1:28 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_46
  48. 1:28

  49. 1:30

    and performance issues because this game

  50. 1:32

    has been extremely poorly optimized.

    Segment details1:32–1:34 · rev_460cc3fec334ec79e008638d48bc1a27_49
  51. 1:34

  59. 1:56

    performance is really struggling even on
