Wild Hearts - Karakuri Katana Weapon Preview & Moves Showcase Gameplay

[@basilnottheherb]

this looks much like a hunter game that does enough of its own thing while capturing what it takes to make it stand next to mh

[@sneaks7354]

@@waitbalthy6342 i agree but do you not think that this actually looks decent for something in such early stages.

[@someonewhoyoudontknow6112]

@@someonewhoyoudontknow6112 you haven’t played it and are making a judgment on the quality of the gameplay? interesting

[@ThirdCosmicVelocity]

@@waitbalthy6342 Way less smooth in what sense? 'Cause the animations look well done, and it's been mentioned that it needs more optimization.

[@ThirdCosmicVelocity]

@@waitbalthy6342 I personally don't see anything wrong with the animations... could you elaborate what your thought process is in that regard? As for the rest- the weapons seem fine moveset-wise apart from maybe not enough combos and variations, but this is true for most MH weapons at their basic form as well. The Longsword for example has basically 3 overhead slashes, thrust, upward slash, fade slash, Spirit Combo and Foresight Slash in base World. That's honestly not much. It had more moves in GU as Arts, all of which returned to Rise in weaker forms, thus increasing its arsenal. In terms of timing, I'm assuming you mean the timing of dodges or attacks, which that I do agree needs more work. The offense seems to lean on the Hunter too much, instead of being a back and forth between the hunter and the monster. There doesn't seem to be that much of a commitment with the attacks that you make, but I sincerely hope this is just because we're seeing early game monsters. The argument against weight is subjective imo. In Monster Hunter, most weapons are larger than you are, save for the DB. The Karakuri Katana is more or less life-sized- I don't see why there needs to be that much weight in its attacks. My only real worry with this game is that the monsters aren't challenging enough tbh. All we've seen so far is players thwacking a Kemono for like ten whole seconds and maybe dodging on the fifteenth. It would be very disappointing if every Kemono is as slow and predictable as the ones we've seen. That said, I don't think it's fair to make a comparison between a completely new IP and a series that's spent 20 years simmering in the pot. I hate half-baked as much as everyone else, but I can't quite see the point in a lot of the comparisons people make for this game.

[@unseeninja83]

The katana is definetly like playing Vergil with more realism in his attacks rather than all flashy effects. It’s cool

[@kevex3929]

Really wanted Capcom to introduce a whip type weapon for MH. It's cool seeing a whip like weapon mixed with the katana in WH

[@Yuxkta]

Toukiden 2 also had Chain Whip before this, it looks like Omega Force is interested in that patricular weapon type.

[@kevex3929]

@@Yuxkta Yup. It was fun in Toukiden. I'm just saying, I would've liked to have seen it in MH.

[@ryuzakirajak4486]

[@aljongreat1900]

I wish the whip will be like the vampire killer from cv series

the monster hunter manga had a sword whip type weapon

[@Nedk82]

Another great video brother , also I watched cowboys impressions and he mentions it was all thanks to you I’m sure all of his subs appreciate that professionalism on your part sharing your videos with another KZbinr.

[@tangytablets5150]

I definitely like the plant-based aspects of the monsters. the katana definitely has its own interesting set of moves that set it apart. it's very focused on the Japanese-style visuals and design aspects.

[@soldierbreed]

Looking forward to seeing what kind of variety they have the umbrella looks really interesting

[@ThunderChanter]

I cant wait/am hoping we get to see more of the Dual Blade/staff weapon we caught a glimpse of in the gameplay trailer. I main DB in MH and Im interested to see this games fast hitting mobile weapon

[@treacherousjslither6920]

I also main DBs lol

[@corruptedshadowj]

Now this game definitely will push capcom in making improvements in monster hunter

[@omaralajmi1551]

Wow , looks pretty neat... I never actually thought about it but Koei Tecmo nailed it here. This Katana almost feels like a Bloodborne weapon which BB being my fav PS4 game already 😅 But seriously i also love Monster Hunter , this Katana looks really good and has really realistic Samurai-Combat style towards every move... Nothing from the game so far feels awkward except some minor Lag/Pause delays between getting Hit and between dishing out some insane Multi-Hitting Combo's so far seeing from this Demo... I hope they fix that minor-delay input which honestly feels awkward , its not like MHW where you have an animation that flings you away... I only noticed that minor-lag input when you transformed your the Katana and started whipping Hard on the Tanuki looking monster 😅 Otherwise i'm really pleased to see this , it sort of has some Nioh-like Combat to it honestly besides the Monster Hunter aspect of the Game... I'm really down so far hopefully there are atleast 6 weapons in Launch and neat Gear/Armor pieces etc.

[@XIIIOmega]

The chained sword reminds me of Zabimaru from Bleach

[@ReccaWolf]

I became a longsword user since MHW. I’m sure as hell gonna use the katana for this game too.

[@MrMonklad]

That was cool the way the grass grew around the monster when it Enraged. must be a lore thing?

[@yobro2796]

For a early build this is looking great!!!

[@YourTamedLion]

Looks cool. I hope they also have something "heavier" like a hammer or giant axe. ..yeah I really miss hunting...

[@martin7729]

i always.. ALWAYS want more games with Zabimaru / Beast Cutter type weapons. im hoping theres chunkier looking blades other then just the slim katana. i love beefy chainblade kinda weapons

[@BadEnd98]

The biggest difference of this game to MH is, the moveset there are just cool flashy moves, it's somewhat even more casual than god eater, the combat is more like smashing buttons against punching bag like fighting big enemy in DMC, God of War, instead of carefully planning and prepare which move you're gonna use as you watch monsters movements, or think about the consequences when you stuck in your animation...

[@DallasBrownridge]

Finna dash around my enemies, call me Rengoku 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@juce49]

Reminds me of Renji’s zanpakuto from Bleach

[@Yuxkta]

As someone who kind of dislikes Longsword moveset in MH games, this looks amazing. Significant improvement over Toukiden's katana moveset imho. I just hope monster movesets are similarly good so fighting them won't feel like hitting a punching bag for 15 mins.

[@BadEnd98]

MH Longsword is an huge Odachi, this is a Katana tho

[@Yuxkta]

@@BadEnd98 Still has moves like Iai sheathe/draw that's usually associated with katanas. Also, it's the only kind of katana in those games. Toukiden's katana was also a huge odachi, which functioned like a katana.

[@BadEnd98]

@@Yuxkta But that's why the MH weapons are special, sure they now have some moves like normal katana but overall the moveset give you so much the sense of "weight" behind every swing, it's actually heavy that most of those moveset the hunter use whole body to swing it, it really make me feel those weapons are made to chop in half huge creatures. It's actually slow like a great sword in other fantasy games, everytime I see newbies start using it and call it slow/clunky I remember why this game feel like it's built different to any other game I've played

[@Yuxkta]

@@BadEnd98 I actually love weighty weapons like GS, Hammer, Swaxe etc. I just dislike LS's moveset because I find it unfun to play. That's just my personal preference. Played both old (3-4) and new (Rise) LS, I think it's just not for me.

[@BadEnd98]

@@Yuxkta yeah I get that you like it handle like a normal katana, but my point is this "Katana" is actually something else, much bigger resemble "Katana", it's so much different even from the posture your hunter hold it

[@ihatecabbage7270]

I feel this more grounded until u fully charged it. I can see it as a popular weapon for hunters to go from. I am looking forward to it.

[@Master_Matoya]

As a threaded cane and chikage user I am happy for this weapon.

[@jetsverse]

I think they should work more on the camera for melee weapons, Its kinda terrible at the moment

[@Egalia_1]

I can’t wait to see some of the higher tier weapons and hopefully moves locked behind the beta. I’d kill to get some Vergil quick slashes

[@PourriGamer]

[@Bacon-egg-cheese]

Is this a playable demo or a content creator thing? Can't seem to find any info about it besides content creators posting so figure its the latter. I'm curious what dodging / etc looks like in this game. A lot of these action combat games get dodging wrong and you mostly just trade with the enemy or what have you and the game suffers for it. Curious how you're meant to deal with attacks against you in this one be it rolling, parries, or maybe using the machines to block attacks for you.

[@FaustMcGran]

can you perform counters with this weapon like longsword from monster hunter world/rise?

[@muninn92]

I wanna try this game. it looks like a game me and my hinting pals could enjoy together

Honestly, since it's a multi platform from start and if EA doesn't screw it up with it's usual microtransaction schemes...it could very well be a competetor for the Apex MH. Most likely not a dethrone, but a pretty good rival.
