User blog comment:Aandrew07/Tri's second anniversary! (Among other things)/@comment-1011548-20120422194917

This blog doesn't deserve to be so horribly lonely.

Just some random, unconnected thoughts from me:

- There isn't a single 3rd gen monster I hate, and the creature designs themselves seem to be at a creative and design peak. No reason to assume this trend will reverse for MH4, no matter what the 'trailer' shows. - The new stamina mechanic... I'd like to keep the whole monster recovery animations (suck it, Aptonoth) but the whole standing there drooling thing should perhaps go. - Elemental blights are a great idea, I hope we get new ones in the future.

- The environments are better than ever before. Even the Flooded Forest is better than lots of the 1st and 2nd Gen areas. - The new arena is much better.

- The revamps of old monsters were best in Tri. I'm glad we got Narga and Tiggy back for P3, but they weren't really changed enough, IMO.

- Screw Brachhi weapons.
