Zinogre Vs. Hunting Horn - Monster Hunter World: Iceborne - ジンオウガ 狩猟笛 ソロ【MHWI】

[@magnabueno5360]

The description had absolutely no sugar-coating lmao

[@florbromh]

Continuously impressed at how you're so good at so many different weapons and match ups across all the games. And yeah, old/rise zinogre is infinitely better than world zinogre.

[@smol-man]

Gonna be straight up. I hard disagree on all those thoughts. I heavy prefer his new look and fight over the old one. Especially when it comes to rise. In rise he looks like he's made of playdough and he fine fight wise. In world I think he has some of the best visual effects and his moveset is just so fun. Pre 5th gen zin is pretty good but world is the way I hope he stays but with improvements. He ain't perfect but I think he was a really good remake in looks and combat

[@dinobear2328]

Just starting to pick up Hunting Horn, and yeah looks like I've got lot to learn! Great run, can't say I agree on Zinogre though haha. Rise's to me looks like a stuffed animal with its gargantuan paws and cartoony detail, and I don't think either HD model got his face right.

[@magnabueno5360]

I think the best model rn is just the original, I'd still fix it a little tho.

[@driftingdeadlock5916]

My man bloody delivered

[@strikerali2160]

I respect your opinions on World Zinogre. Granted I think Zinogre looks good all the time but I much prefer his more wolf like build, he actually sells the wolf inspiration and not just in sound. Plus his build makes way more sense for him to be doing all that acrobatic shit. Regardless hooray for Thunder canis lupus

[@RenoKyrie]

Weirdly enough i feel like Iceborne Stygian Zinogre is more Zinogre than Iceborne Zinogre is Idk the way Iceborne Zino work honestly feels more like something Stygian does, and to no one surprise when we do fight Stygian, it fits the figh soo much more

[@bennnessy]

Spark mandrill theme, niceee

[@RaidenSTX]

Very interesting is the loop of Hunting Horn in this game, effective and has good-ish range

[@yetravellingsonc8372]

World Zinogre is just a weird fight because in almost every way it feels like a completely different monster. Where most returning monsters just look a little grittier, Zin just looks uncanny with how lanky-yet-hunched they made it. The fight still hits the same basic formula but it has almost TOO many new moves (the double slam, that weird thunder ball thing he stole from GU Lagiacrus, stuff like that). You can chalk it up to World being different from older games (if you're stupid) but Rise went and reverted Zinogre back to how he was in 4th gen both in design and fight, so like... whaaaat the fuck was going on here Capcom?

[@deimyng_0084]

Nooo doggy 😭😭😭

[@lubbo5261]

Zinogre design in Iceborne focuses too much on the Wolf part of him but lacks in the Ogre aspects of him and the Kabuki parts of Zinogre are completly missing in Iceborne.

[@athos9293]

Good thing about his face being so ugly in World is that it's exactly the spot you'll be smacking

[@FishyMirage]

Feel like in wilds Horn traded all its movement speed for attack speed and I sort of hate it. Echo bubbles were also really annoying to use, but that's just me. I may just need more time to get used to the changes but I'm not really sure. Nothing will top Iceborne Horn.

[@Nodnarb59]

Quit hating on my boy

[@dynamo_lynn]

NEVER, not in this game at least (i just prefer Stygian)

[@Sparty450]

Its so blatantly obvious Zinogre was a phoned in addition in this game lmao

[@kingkamina4953]

I find it a little difficult to believe that a monster who has only skipped one entry since his debut, has been topping popularity charts for ages and was the flagship of the best selling MH game ever before MHW would have EVER been an afterthought for the devs of this game.

[@masterhind2036]

@@kingkamina4953 Kaname Fujioka mentioned in the Dive into Iceborne books that they were initially planning not to include Zinogre, but when they first revealed Iceborne, there were a huge amount of fans asking "Where's Zinogre?", "I hope Zinogre returns", etc. so they decided to include him after the fan demand, which probably explains why he's a postgame monster in Iceborne.

[@kingkamina4953]

@@masterhind2036 ah, interesting, I must’ve missed that interview. Was it a similar story for Garuga? I love his Iceborne fight but he also felt similar to Zinogre, just kinda existing at the end of the game

[@masterhind2036]

​@@kingkamina4953 Nothing as such for Garuga, he just said they wanted a unique, fast and aggressive mon to sell the idea that the Guiding lands are different from the other four maps, so they chose Yian Garuga

[@ibs_haver]

Yea, he feels so underbaked compared to the other returning monsters like Nargacuga and Tigrex. His sfx are bad, his design is weird, and his fight is a bit of a mess. I guess I was still happy to have him (especially since Stygian Zinogre was actually pretty fun), but definitely a disappointment overall.

[@kingkamina4953]

Description is straight facts, Zinogre looks butt ugly in MHW idk what they were thinking. Glad Rise went back to his proportions from the older games

[@C_Kiri]

Oh my god why did they give Zinogre a stagger-counter. Who did this. Who ruined my boy and his perfectly good fight. Why was Worldborne like this.

[@manikaditha6308]

The difference is justifiable, because new world and old world monster supposed to be have subtle different anyway. And zino always have been ugly for me.

[@lubbo5261]

Zinogre is so slow in Iceborne. Especially his signature paw slaw attack was butchered.

[@Guyy_1]

I agree with your takes in the description but thats probably just because zinogre is my least favorite monster, I could go on for hours about why I hate him

[@RexusChrysalis]

His theme too, butchered in this game, the electric guitar rock style is almost non-existent, far too calm, it doesn't fit the monster at all. Only the mount theme is really cool.
