Topic: Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin

Really enjoyed what they have shown on the treehouse. I will be playing this during the weekend for sure!

We finally see some more towns from the game. This second one looks pretty cool:

So many previews that I'm trying my hardest to avoid watching. I wanna know as little about the game as possible when I go into the demo. One thing I did hear is that IGN really doesn't like the fact that you can't turn off the AI companions in battles, however.. judging that it's IGN, I feel like the complaint is probably not warranted.

Demo tomorrow. Hope you guys are ready!.

@JaxonH I am. I'm kind of envious that the demo is already out in Australia. Wonder if they plan to do a midnight launch or not.

Hard to say, usually 3rd party games wait until around noon to release...

I'm so ready for this.

European demo is out.

Just waiting on NA now.

@JaxonH Probably won't be out until tomorrow morning.

Maybe it'll happen at midnight over here...?

@Joeynator3000 I'm hoping honestly.

I heard that the switch game has.. really bad framerate issues in it. Specifically areas with a lot of plants, due to poor optimization.

It's now live in the United States!

....Annnnnd...I don't want to play it...or anything right now...I've been sick, and it's hitting me hard again for the night. T.T

Guys the demo is out now, Well over here but its not even the 15th yet,.

So, I played a bit of it, and it's pretty decent. The Frames drop constantly though.. which is a shame, but other than that, I'm having loads of fun. The tutorials are pretty good, and they do a better job with the battle system as well as the egg systems. Also, if the Camera's speed is slow for you guys, you can apparently change it in the options section.

@VoidofLight Ya It does drop alot but it could be fixed when it comes out, and Yes i'm going to have to fix the camera speed, and I also agree with the tutorials, Still haven't played enough to comment on the egg system and Battle system, But is it me, and it can just be me, but this game feels less like a part 2, but more like a reboot of the first one, as the first was was held back by hardware, and it was a more experimental, It it turned out well, I mean they retold the first part of the story form the first game. And I might not be able to play the first game bc this one looks so nice, All in all, this demo is looking great so far.

And like I said it could be me, Cuz I don't really feel like its a part 2, its a reboot, but it could be a pat 2 in terms of gameplay. (Not saying its a bad thing whatsoever, cuz it more or less feels like the game wanted to be, but was held back by hardware, but they did port it to the phone and they updated it so.)

@Snatcher Yeah, they said that this was basically a sequel with it's own story. The only true connections to the first game are moreso returning characters, and other than that, it's really just it's own thing entirely. Kind of like how Zelda sequels generally are, or Final Fantasy.

@VoidofLight Ya, I also like how you carry eggs faster cuz it was a slogg in the first game.

Yeah I'm hoping the frame rate issue is fixed in the full version. (feeling good enough to play it, lol) I honestly don't care if it's 60fps or 30fps...I just want it to be smooth. Wished more games would do the Performance/Quality options that some games have done.
