A tip : watch movies on Flixzone. Been using it for watching loads of movies these days.

[@kaysoncanaan5542]

@Paul Talon yup, I have been watching on flixzone for years myself =)

[@jaxonkabir3034]

@Paul Talon definitely, have been using flixzone for since november myself :)

Khezu has the best soundtrack, especially when he gets mad

Definitely the soundtrack I have playing over my life!

[@gigagrave]

Yeah i always play it on my music player it's so good

[@rullynihuy1853]

Whenever i heard khezu theme it's always reminds me of my future, 10/10 monster hunter soundtrack

[@stevoyah]

top tier song

[@Kirgoss]

I love how the track starts silent and ends silent making a really cool loop even if you just loop the track on your media player or on KZbin, it is just like in the game. And that silent part in the middle part comes so sudden and unexpected, I get goosebumps every time!

This is what the world needs. A rad monster Hunter podcast by two great, genuine dudes. I’m a sarcastic (but decent) fellow - but this was a sincere comment! Keep it up!

[@Rena_Skuxy]

I forgot to comment this on the first Third Fleet Podcast, but I as well started with MH back in Tri on Wii and I loved it ever since. I love both your guys’ channels and I feel right at home with the podcast

[@SylemGistoe]

Third fleet squad, represent! Started with tri (noped out super hard trying to outswim lagiacruz with Wiimote controls) but came back with 3 ultimate. Love hearing this podcast.

[@pablosoria4071]

Another member of the Third Fleet here. Started with Tri but since I was 8 at the time I didn't get far, however in 3U I completed the main story but didn't get far in the online. In 4U I managed to get to G3 but couldn't beat Gog. In World however I managed to hunt every single monster and I hope to beat Rise the same.

Why, hello there! I started on Tri after taking a spanish-cover copy of it home (had travelled to visit my sister) without knowing what it was, and i got hooked! Came back to it with 3U about 1.5 year ago, and now deep into GU.

I did not say this in the first episode of the podcast but thank you so much for starting a podcast about monster hunter, I have always been wanting one so since it's coming from you I appreciate it a lot! Also I suggest that u invite guests probably like: Arrekz, Ragegaming, TDS and more, I'll keep following the podcast love you guys!!

[@MultiDude2468]

They flow so well off of each other this is exactly what I needed

[@TubeYouDSilvy]

I never used the lance that much - but in MHW I hit a wall when I fought the big Pickle for the first time - and it was the lance that got me thru! Looking forward to checking it out in Rise.

[@nargo9734]

This and the announcement of Rise are the best things happend in 2020. Thank you very much Ruri and Gajin, for those amazing Podcasts⛩🐉

[@Stratelier]

Gaijin is ABSOLUTELY right about the connotations of the phrases "A-team" and "B-team". You can't have a "B" without an "A" any more than you can have a "Player 2" without a "Player 1", and in some franchises the "B"-team is _literally forbidden_ from introducing new canon. Look at Pokemon, for example -- say whatever you want about Game Freak's practices and I can't disagree, but they are still the ONLY team allowed to define new series canon (new regions, new species, etc.). Everyone else has to work within whatever Game Freak creates. But with Monster Hunter, it's nice to see that the teams don't necessarily have such a strict heirarchy, such as popular monsters returning again and again regardless of which "canon" created them (i.e. Nargacuga and Zinogre being "B"-team monsters, or Lavasioth being a Frontier monster). With me playing Lance in MH3U, Guard lancing is fun all right (especially with Glacial Agnaktor) but that Constitution-1 debuff ... yeah, you gotta gem it out if you can. Meanwhile, when playing MH4U with the Zinogre set I NEVER bothered trying to gem out Taunt. After all, I hunted solo most of the time so what difference did it really make?

[@LaughingBat]

Loving the podcast, hope it keeps going for a long time!

[@KatsuhiroHebi]

I love hearing Gaijin show people the correct way to pronounce things.

[@toochill3549]

yo, keep this podcast going! two of my favorite hunters on one channel is what I need

[@rbelljr29]

Just stopped a rurikhan video to watch a rurikhan video. Felt like the right thing to do.

[@therighttrousers343]

Guess who's back? Back again. Khezu's back. Tell a friend.

[@akaimizu1]

The Royal Ludroth, I simply call it the "Rolling Rolling Rolling, Royal Ludroth" because he's always rolling around. Rolling all the time. He does more Barrel rolls than the entire StarFox team. Anyway, while I was a 2nd Fleet starter, I remember being right on top of the Campaign to really push Monster Hunter Tri, in the west. Long before that game launched, I was all over Capcom's MH forums, and doing various presentations in support of the game. My big push was related to what I believed would be the *big* thing that would get the Western audience to really jump into the game. (And given you two, I guess I was right). It was the first Monster Hunter, not only with a good commercial campaign for the west, but to release on Hardware where every single person (who had one) could go online with it, right out of the box. The lack of internet play was a big hurdle for the West, as most westerners would have to learn how the game plays alone, remembering the PS2 did not launch with any online capability, and that required people to buy the hardware separately to enable that feature. Building communities strictly off Adhoc just wasn't a reality for the West. Online opened up the thing Japan kind of exclusively had, a large population to mentor new hunters into how things worked. What I loved was that Capcom USA was very supportive of our Fan efforts to spread knowledge of the game, particularly when it came to fan-made or edited commercials, or fan renditions of their work, as long as they were transformative and fan-made, not simply using their art. I even got an award from them, for a fan-contest back then (for my mostly acoustic rendition of the Pokke theme, MY MH Home town), and was honored to see Capcom USA actually promote one of my KZbin videos, for my Monster Hunter Yellow beard commercial remix. Ahh yes, Yellow Beard, our first Western Hunter Mascot for the series. I really enjoyed making the Pokke theme especially because I also got to do a very MH thing, in RL, in doing it. Crafted my very own RL Flute, out of bamboo, which I used to lead the song. Very interesting info about Sword And Shield. Coming into the game as the third Fleet, that would mean you really came in when they first really started utilizing SnS, adding KO damage to the shield, for the first time. Prior to that, it wasn’t quite as sexy a weapon.

[@elijahkeay3906]

Glad to hear from gaijin in a setting like this. He’s easily my favourite MH KZbinr and I love every single one of his videos

[@budokaikanto5171]

KZbin loved this video and so did I.I dont mind the long podcasts.Gives me more content to listen to while I commute to work.

[@frankiecutlass7155]

This is fantastic. Please continue this all the way through Rise and into next gen Monster Hunter please.

[@forlogic53]

Thank god, finally someone who feels the same way I do with the Longsword. I used to main LS in MHFU and MHP3, its a really good weapon, simple, effective and you still gotta play well to use it. Now fast forward to World, it became one of the safest weapons to use because of the foresight slash. Literally counter anything, roars, tremors, attacks, wind pressure. Like what? Even the strongest shields need some Guard skill to block those and LS just fucking does it with such a huge window while also buffing the spirit gauge. I wish they get rid of it TBH, or at least put a heavier penalty on it, regardless of whether it actually dodges something or not. I would say the Iai stance counters are fairer, they dont have the crazy window of the foresight slash and it puts you in a vulnerable stance if you use it (altho most of the time its just used to animation cancel out of stuff and continue the combo string).

[@cjanoel]

almost 3 hour podcast with Ruri and Gaijin?!!! let's go!!!

[@GiacomoVaccari]

Beyond the content itself, it's so enjoyable to hear you both banter. Keep it coming!

[@nicholasmarquez3399]

Got here faster than my notifications. Not surprising with KZbin algorithms

Love seeing these two guys working together. Awesome content, thanks for keeping the community inform and with a smile on :)

Loving these long conversation videos. You guys have good chemistry, don’t even need to think about it anymore in case you are. This is commute food

[@BlaxxShadow]

I love hearing you guys talk about Monster Hunter. Please keep it going!

[@akaslayer4983]

Portable 3rd was a great MH for sure. Remember playing on a PSP with CFW and Team Maverick One English patch. My PSP may still have it on it. Assuming it works lol.

[@devilmayclarify666]

This isn't the Monster Hunter content we asked for, but it's the MH content we needed.

[@an0bserver2000]

2:27:24 *pre world* horn is not that complicated. world and especially iceborne horn is legitimately almost as technical as weapons like charge blade. I would argue even more technical once you really get into it. world's addition of the song queue added soooooooo much to the weapon's playstyle that 3000 hours in im still learning new things. for example, did you know that if you double tap a direction after rolling you exit the roll animation significantly faster? (this is called stutter cancelling). or that you can roll cancel your recitals and the flourish to use them as fast pokes. or you can turn around right before using backslam to attack forwards with it. or the fact that the second hit of superpound will always land on the head if its in range, even if theres other body parts in the way.

[@Zyckro]

I love listening to these in the background! Keep it up guys!

[@RPGeenius]

I started in 5th fleet but I joined the 3rd and 4th😁. I know a lot of people didn't like swimming but I loved it! That's why I'm so stoked to be back in the flooded forest, my favorite map. It looks beautiful on rise but I'll admit it's gonna feel weird not diving during certain map sections 🥺.

[@meikahidenori]

I felt that in GU. As someone who started in Tri, there was one map where I often wished I could dive in and fight lagi underwater

[@Arkyuu]

Man I love this. just talking about random stuff and monster hunter. plain old having a good time

[@Howl_3DN]

I agree with their sentiments on the rooms in World. However, the best thing about the second and final suites was definitely the music

[@joshmay2944]

worth watching just to hear @gaijin hunter 's Southern accent ! This is the best MH content on YT in my opinion!

[@GoldenXShark22]

Man you guys have such good chemistry, this really did feel like 5 mins

[@Squallcloud95]

Never knew songs were a thing in monster hunter. The one in the trailer was beautiful can't wait to hear more!

[@cjanoel]

songs are most prominent in 4u but i remember there's also a diva even way back in Freedom Unite

[@Weedbongz]

Give the Dos and 4U songs a listen! Most of the Dos ones are in 4U, but some are missing.

[@Solfonix]

Absolutely love this podcast I’m replaying world with a friend right now and I can just listen to this

[@Revonlieke]

Somnacanth actually crabs a clam from the water which heals it as he opens it. It's not hitting his chest with it, it's just using the chest as a pivotpoint to open the clam. Great Wroggi appeared in MHp3rd and 3U first. And was not in any other game before or after it. However there was Iodrome in Freedom Unite that was a poison spewing monster similar to Wroggi. Great Jaggi did call small Jaggias, but the jaggias were much like just annoying children of their mom. jumping around thinking they're helping, but are mostly in the way. The Rampage is def going to be 5 monsters in a single hunt. It's always been possible to do it, just that there's not really been any practical implementation of it. 5 monsters in an arena just brings chaos so they had to make it so that they appear 1 at a time. World also had an innate cap for monsters per area. So let's say you hunt in Wildspire Wastes, the map has a cap of 3 monsters per area. Not that they couldn't put a 4th, but because the AI pathways would interact too much with each other and result in monsters meeting and causing turf wars all the time. I'm sure they tested to put more monsters in the maps at some point in Worlds development. So Rampage is most likely taking these ideas of quests with 5 monsters in them, and bringing them for you to hunt all at the same time. Instead of being this very limited system where the monster appear one at a time.

[@Shadowslash1]

1:09:00 YES! This man gets it! The times I did play in a group (with my friends or little brothers) we would be at Zaxby’s or Chik-fil-a hunting.

New Bow: Why trip hunters in game when you can trip old ladies and overworked businessmen in real life?

[@Zero0mtk]

The persimmon-throwing is probably based on the children story of saru-kani gassen (monkey-crab war) - maybe Gaijin knows it. In it, the monkey (which is the villain) throws persimmons at the crab. Since Bishaten clearly has monkey feature in it, the dev's probably playing with this theme!

[@BergsArt]

Ae need to get Rurikhan, Gaijin Hunter, Arrekz, and Ragegaming in a podcast. And just geek out about MH for hours.

[@yoshikawoshi3728]

Monster Hunter Rise is looking real good the game can’t come any faster Edit 21:27 actually they added it in Tri where you were able to enter other peoples homes of course the decorations weren’t anything near to what it is in iceborne but it was in tri first 34:20 it does seem like the Somnacanth has a qurupeco esque mechanic. qurupeco did do alot tho he healed all monsters in the area buffed them in atk and def he called for monsters in. Grank even calling a deviljho i don’t think he’ll be as complex as that but he could heal and buff himself that’d be cool

I'd want a house to be the bed, a kitchen where you could make meals for free as well as having your canteen, a music player, a library for art or fun text dumps or whatever bonus materials they want, and an option to close doors and windows because that is a thing I want to do. Maybe a sofa and a tv to view the movies and cutscenes, and if you load the game into your home, waking up on sprawled across it drooling out of your mouth should be one of a few 'taking control of your character' animations. And you mentioned hanging weapons on the wall, that and the mannequin are good ideas.

MHWI Bow inputs: R2 (release), O - Power shot. O (while holding R2) - Arc Shot. So, probably every time a bow user makes it rain, it's a bad input. It doesn't even do a lot of damage, so no one is doing this on purpose LOL

[@gogmazio]

[@pablosoria4071]

The thing is, I wouldn´t want the artic ridge because I hate that zone, however, I think that type of zone would have pretty good synergy with Rise, since in older gens it was a pain to climb all those hills but now climbing hills is the specialy, so that would be a welcomed map for me (even tho I would love to see the Tundra from 3/3U again alongside my boy Giginox)

[@akaimizu1]

That's wild. I didn't know you could OTC buy 10mg single doses of Melatonin. The ones I've seen were 3 or 5. The first one says to take one, but you can take a second within a 24 hour period, but never ever more than 6mg in a 24 hour period. The later was just 1 a day so they seem to try to keep you under 6mg, in either case. 10mg seems like straight overdose territory. I also have my doubts that Age of Calamity will push a Switch Pro by much. The frames aspect seems to only really happen on the first level in Hyrule field, but gets way better for the rest of the game. Even for some of the biggest set pieces, in the late game, and afterwards (even for late levels in Hyrule field, throwing around a lot of effects), it stays around the performance of the first Hyrule Warriors. So iffy first impression, but perhaps, given the rest of the game, could be fixed with a patch. It would be interesting if Monster Hunter could take advantage of a Switch Pro, given 4 Ultimate did upgrade if you played it on a New 3DS as opposed to the original 3DS.

[@maximeboucher635]

Yes my favorite podcast

[@G0die16]

the somnacanth move where it crushes clams on it's chest seems to be based on the way otters use their bellies as tables to break crabs, clams and sea urchins with rock. you can search a video on this and it's almost identica.
