Although this last game of 3rd gen is rapidly plunging off a cliff in terms of realism, it annoys me when people that 'monster hunter makes no sense, lol' - it does. Or at least, it makes a lot more sense than most video games. There are clear ecosystems, clear predator-prey relationships (even in-game with the introduction of the stamina system) by and large most monsters are well adapted for the environment they're found in (some notable exceptions) and saying that MH is set on a planet with low gravity explains so much (hunters can fall from ridiculous heights without damage/Jhen Mohran can jump over a boat/Shen Gaoren can actually stand, etc). Blangonga/Urcusis aren't throwing pillars of ice, they're compacting snow in their front paws, then chucking it at the Hunter. Nothing ridiculous there. Agnaktor in the Arena... ideally digging through the sand wouldn't soften its armor, but I'm happy putting that up to gameplay constraints.
