tri's volcano is, hands down, the best. after playing tri icant even look at the earlier games. an important part(i think) of the fight is the environment, only beaten by the monsters themselves, and i think that tri did this the best. you can tell that capcom put a lot of detail into the environments of tri; the stars at night were a really nice touch, and the smoke on the ceiling of area five was really cool. as for monsters i thought they did a really good job. the amount of monsters present was a little dissapointing but they made up for it with tthe quality of the monsters. this was the first mh game where it felt like i was fighting a real monster. the movements were a lot less jerky and the textures and colors were a lot better. i was thrilled the first time i fought a rathalos in tri. rising up in front of the cliff and yelling in midair. the volcano really helped the scene with all the erupting volcanoes and rumbling in the background. the coolest monster in the volcano is the agnaktor. his laser puts gravios to shame. the molten lava concept was extremely cool and knowing tthat all thos little uroktors would someday turn into menacing, fiery giants was really fun. mh3s secret area is also the best, because of the view and the convenient positioning for mining. 8 9 10 5 3. i would kindof like to see the snowy mountains again. it could be a higher sections of tundra with the tundra area being the ground level/ subteranean level. but it would have to be completely redone with better everything for me to want it. -Azrael.
