So, there I was thinking "This game looks great but I reckon the gameplay won't match the visuals so at least my watchlist won't keep growing exponentially..."
@kobashi100 Indeed. While I don't blame people for staying well away from the disaster that was WWE 2k18, we can at least see that the result of this was no 2k19 release for the Switch. The idea that these companies will go that extra mile for the Switch as a result of their initial releases flopping is pure fantasy.
At least MHG doesn't look like unplayable garbage like WWE was, so I hope that people go out and buy it and that this brings more games to the Switch. Those that think that £50 is too much, fine. I bought Skyrim after it went on sale for £35 and will probably do the same for MH. When I do, I'll have nothing but gratitude for those that supported it on release.
@SmaggTheSmug I had a similar negative experience with the demo as someone that has never played MH before. Then I read up on it and found that the demo doesn't offer a good impression of the game for newcomers and is more tailored for the hardcore MH fans. I think I'll keep an eye on the reviews and forums and maybe pick it up on sale when I've got more of an idea if it's still worth diving in.
@JasmineDragon Plus, there's the option of picking up these games at a discount price a few months later, as I was able to do with Skyrim, which wouldn't be possible if people weren't willing to pay full price on release in the first place.
