So after Monster Hunter: Stories was announced, I got lots of ideas. I'd been saying for a looong time that having monster mounts and hunting on the back of your wyvern'y companion would be absolutely awesome, and now it seems that might just become reality. To an extent anyway - we've only got a little bit of info to go off of so far but I'z hopeful to see Great Jaggi mount <3
Anyway, it spawned a lot of ideas I wanted to draw - and one of them was a few riders and their mounts running along, with the Tigrex one just blazing ahead of everyone else, followed behind by a Rathian, Kut-ku, and Gendrome.... And then waaaaaaay in the back was another monster struggling to keep up :P
I never did get to that, but I did pick the initial sketch of this up and finished it. Somewhat. Actually, halfway through the first lining stage I was absolutely furious. Truth be told thoiugh, this is the best human I've ever drawn heh. You can tell it's a human right? ^^;
So yeah. After talking with a few friends on Skype I changed the racing idea around to "Bad Monster Mount ideas", and two of 'em were Zamitros and Lagiacrus ;)

Actually the thought for Zamitros was like log rolling or something - he puffs up and starts rolling like a ball and the rider is running on top trying not to fall off or get rolled over ^^
Though that would come after the strap-snapping I imagine hehe, so both ideas work! :D
And yeah, Lagi and his zappity zap zap. Has got a 'Do Not Touch' thing going with those spikes on his back xD
Great Froggi/Wroggi's another bad mount because poison, Deviljho for obvious reasons, and G.Baggi perhaps, though he wouldn't be too bad s'long as he keeps his sleep-inducing saliva to himself :P

Pff, yeah, that would be a hilarious thing to see.
Kecha Wacha could be kind of cool, since it's capable of flight and swinging around like a monkey in some areas on MH4U. Seltas maybe, long as there isn't a queen around. Baggi for the reason you stated, but I wouldn't mind the saliva if it'll help me sleep. ¦3
There's quite a few monsters that could be potential mounts, the English MH:S trailer hinting that a tigrex could be a mount close to the end of it.

Nope, it was one that's the same as Capcom uploaded, but with an English title and comments enabled. Not entirely sure if they are gonna release it internationally, but here's hoping, right?
They had comments disabled for a while, but knowing YouTube and seeing all those Dislikes.... Not even gonna bother looking at that section x'P
Already seen people condemning the game to failure just because of the GRAPHICS STYLE and several people raging about "You can't tame monsters in MH!". Purists probably in the latter case, and obviously ones not familiar with the Japanese only games - but I'm pretty sure Capcom's the one that decides what is or is not possible, and not the fans right? ;P
Mmm you mean the YouTube title was in English, or the Game Title? If the former that's a sliver of hope right there (Why bother putting the title in English if it was never intended for anyone else to view it?) and if the latter... Well, the Japanese seem to loooove putting their game titles in BIG ENGLISH FONTS for some reason. I guess it looks 'cool' to them in the same way lots of westerner's think Katakana text looks cool hehe. I find it both amusing and depressing that many Japanese games will have an English name in huge letters, and then off to the side in much, much, much smaller font is the Japanese name ;P

Well I just saw IGN's trailer, if that's the one you're referring to. I didn't see anything new in it though. (The Felyne carryign the egg as it begins hatching with the tiny roar off-screen is in Capcom's trailer too)
"I was like meh... at first, but then I saw him ridin a fuckmothering RATHALOS. Im hyped up now..."
"I was like meh... at first, but then I saw him ridin a fuckmothering RATHALOS. Im hyped up now..."
Heh nah. Khezu is blind, and I think technically Gore Magala is, but Tigrex isn't. In the MH:Stories trailer you see a brief scene through its eyes and it can clearly see the two stealing from (her?) nest and from a distance at that. Tigrex are aggressive, full of energy, and chaotic - but that's about it ^^
I've been in... For about a week, tops :B
Total playing time is just like, 17 hours xD
But yeah, if he's the ONLY one who believes that - when there's plenty of people who had been there since the first games (Like
zhugeliang ) arguing against that AND the official wiki and books also deny it.... Then yeah, he's wrong and is just fooling himself :B

I 'unno, I kinda want to do that sorta thing on my own hehe. Get to the top myself without others pushing me there xP
Featherfriend
Xane offered too, had to say no - I'z fine with playing together a bit sure, but I don't want any boosting or stuff ovo;

I know right? It'd be amazing if other well-known creatures from the series would be rideable as well. Kut-ku, Jaggi and Baggi, maybe even some of the Frontier-only monsters like Pariapuria (He kinda reminds me of a wyvern'ified Toothless, because of the Axolotl-inspired head ^^). Just Rathian and Rathalos would still be mighty awesome, but the thrill of it would wear down after a while if they're the ONLY things you can befriend/mount. We'll see though as more info is released, and I hope to high heaven and back that they don't keep this JP-only like their other spin-off titles >:/

Can't remember if Monsters changed much between the JP release and the International one, at least with the GBC releases... I know that Monsters 1 & 2 had a few changes in the (JP only of course) Playstation remake, and there were some changes/additions in the 3DS remakes... But it wasn't different enough that you couldn't just play through without a guide if you've played the originals. Except for perhaps in the PSX one where they had you go on some stupid treasure hunt that was easy to screw up just to get the (Sky?) key...
DQM2 had a few changes though mostly revolving around the Giant Monsters. I posted a Journal about that (which was of course entirely ignored) pointing out some differences between the original GBC and the 3DS. I liked the Leviathan mechanics though <3

Hmm.... All I know of is some Japan event-exclusive monsters in the GBC and PSX editions. Lamia, Dimensaur, and some other guy whose name I forget. They're in the international GBC's coding as well, but you had no way of getting them without gameshark or other cheating devices.
The 3DS remake also has some event-exclusive monsters, but you can obtain them from StreetPass battling people online, so they can still be obtained - just not on your own. Don't even have to live in Japan to get them. Some former exclusives like Dimensaur can be gotten as random Magic Key rewards or from Gift Keys as well.

OMG YES! Monster Hunter Stories would be the BEST MH in my collection and fav by facking far, whatever way I'm riding, pun intended, I'd freaking be happy just friggin sitting on a damn Tigrex, Rathalos, Lagiacrus or even Fatalis <3 Best idea ever.... this got me so hype sorry! The cute piece really makes the game seem funny and more cute
I know right <3
Would be so epic to fight monsters alongside monsters. I mean, don't get me wrong - Cha-Cha and the Felynes are all well and good, but mounting up a Rathalos and doing your thing with him? <3
It's still pretty early to be getting excited. There's a chance we might not have a big selection of monsters to work with (Though I'd find it a touch odd if you just started with a Rath, when so far we've usually started small and worked our way up), and I'd still like to hear about how the gameplay and especially combat will be working. I recall reading that they planned on changing the mechanics somewhat to accommodate their plans for the game overall, but in what way? How, and to what extent? What about the mainstream games couldn't work with this one?
Will we always be on the backs of our monsters? Will we get more than one? Can we fight alongside them as well? They said it'd be more story-driven than past games, like what?
Many questions, and only time will tell... But it's already looking like it could be very interesting~
I just hope they don't keep it to themselves in Japan ;v;
Or worse, cancel it outright x(

Oh yes there's quite alot of people I'm sure who'd wish they could do there "thing" with Rathalos or do him alright :D But yes that friggin concept is like the FIRST in the series and an instant standout game on its own, with the cute graphics and funny ass puns that they use that I'm sure were intentional it'd be something to keep and be playing till morning! Heh interesting you sound and speak like that guy who questioned and reviewed the trailer for the new video on Youtube.. o.o fighting alongside that'd be tough and need LOTS of work to even get a damn battle going without your freaking Rathalos upswishing and knocking you in the air all the time xD wonder if they'll go all Sims Pets and add stats for them too or even make it mandatory to feed, cater and love them... to start they'll probably put you on some low rank Great Jaggi or something for the noobs and scrubs hah! I bet they'll make being on and using monster attacks with a camera mode and feel of using a cannon shot or ballista gun. Either way if I can "mount" a monster without having to kill em all the time I'd love to just admire a beautifully colored greatly laid out area just sitting on the back of a boss, that'd be the best! <3
I kinda doubt every rath in the world is suddenly going to become your best friend overnight, just because you have one that's taken a liking to you - likely because it spent its entire whelphood with humans and/or was raised to be that way. It's like wolves - just because we've got some tamed ones doesn't mean the feral ones won't still try and shred you to pieces on-sight in the wild x3
I could see 'em explaining to you that the wild ones aren't going to be friendly, maybe you might end up fighting some - who knows o///o
With how intricate MH's mechanics can sometimes be, I wouldn't be surprised if your monster companion was more than just a mindless drone that follows you around, and there were some special things you could do with it - mandatory or otherwise. I'd hope we could craft specialized armor for them hehe, but that might end up becoming resource intensive after a while (Memory wise, having all the unique models and code for it; depending on how they pull the mechanic off) and this is only a 3DS game; not a PC or console title, so there's only so much they can add in. Which is why I hope they take it easy on the cutscenes and cinematics. Too many of them and you run low on space for things like more regions and more monsters. Of course, too few and then it can feel a bit bland xP
Mmm Great Jaggi is cute though :D
I figure I'd be one of those nubbies you mentioned heh, MH3U he KOed me on our first encounter and almost a second time, then killed me twice more back on the island x'P
Qurupeco gave me two consecutive Quest Failed's, and barely emerged victorious the third time. Yup, I'm not exactly a 'pro huntaa' here :B
My friends mentioned a 'Monster Zoo' a few times, where monsters you captured in the wild would show up - but Cappy never implemented it. Maybe they'll do that for this?
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/16298453/ I'd just admire my Jaggi for a while, or whatever monsters I may end up taming <3
And yessss~ Explore the world on foot? Bah, anyone can do that. Explore it on the back of a badass dragon or dinosaur? That's more like it xD
If this concept is received well, it'd be awesome if the monster companions follow over into future mainstream titles. It might even be like Reverse Swimming - monster flees from ye like Quru does, you mount up your Rath and take to the air and chase 'em down where ye can't on foot >:D
Dragon dogfight in midair, like Rathy and Seregios going at it in 4U, but you'd be sniping the other monster with a bowgun at the same time!

Hhah well then it'd be Furaffinity Stories, cause you'll be some random hunter rolling up on a Rathy like "Hey nice butt... wanna yiff?" xD I pun too hard heheh hard but SCREW CATS those tiny ass things can barely reach a freaking Tigrex's head lol what we need is freaking need is FULL SIZE comrades! Thatd be helpful cause imagine just about every single part is reachable and can be WAY easier to break using your monster, it's like Mark Of A Hero quest for MH3U which was like impossible for me to damn complete.. IMPOSSIBLE till I got a stupidity struck and realized all I had to do was rock my Wroggi X armor, great set btw, with attack up gemmed in, then when Lagi is done, I just run around like "aaaaaaah help me someone!" while laughing hard at watching Brachydios stomp and Mike Tyson punch Azure Rathalos while sucker punching all over the place chasing after my Shakalaka's xD Of course Rath dies first and you have to face Brachy BUT if you ran at the right spots and they hit each other enough you just have to land a couple minutes worth of epic hits and bam quest clear! :D And like the felynes well "palicos" now, Capcom needs to stop changing names -_-, I think monsters will need constant taming and training to adapt to you, and knowing bastard Capcum they might make it hard to even have a monster companion or level it up or gain a bond quick enough to use for a quest that you just cant beat... I hope they'll have a mid air mount okay still sounds wrong xD But ariel lock on an enemy as your Rath reels in and bites their neck or chomps and latches hard on them while you can whale and combo like hell on their head or weak spots, oh! And yes a feature where you wouldn't be a wussy on the floor being ground-bound watching that limping Qurupeco fly away and then giving up as you just realized your time is up... but nooo! you have a Rathalos you can fly after and chase his ass down and fireball him as he flees and quickly complete the quest with seconds left! Best moment ever that'd be <3
Hm or even having cute costumes for the actual monsters themselves! Omg I'd love that, just dressing up a Velocidrome as Batman or something xD That'd be great to see in the middle of a fight. Btw, I still go back to MH3U often and I'm NOT an expert but I am good and beat just about every single monster nameable, thanks to SLIME! <3 Spectral Demolishers dual swords period... BEST weapon I always used from Lagi to killing 80 Dire Miralis and yes Miralis is SO EASY I can even murder him 80 times without more than 1 death average!!!
Monster zoo now that's something hehe and yes I saw that cute little icon, love that btw ^^
