a ferrari could look nice too but outsource the parts and little is left of it as a ferrari and the integrity itself is compromised. they didn't need to do this. if tsujimoto had done this himself rather than capcom letting some 3rd rate developer from china do this he would have done it alot better.

1st problem. it wasn't made by the head team of monster hunter.. the designs are poor and likely based off of older inferior monster designs just bumped up in a modern engine.

2nd problem. they used another company's engine and while i find cryteck to be great developer monster hunter should never use cryengine. cryengine is really good for fpa, fps type of games with an added note of photorealism. monster hunter is a action jrpg type game with a heavier japanese anime influence. monster hunter with cryteck is basically like marvel drawing naruto... none of these things are bad but monster hunter was never meant to look like skyrim..

3rd issue. while yes it is an online game it isn't part of the main franchise and i'd rather have that right now. i don't want to be handed 3rd rate immitator scraps in lieu of the actual franchise games like the upcoming mh4. if they release both so be it. but i want monster hunter from tsujimoto's team to thrive in the US. not tencent "hey we know how to use someone else's middleware to make teh grafix" hurting that just because of graphics..
