I don't actively discuss the story, but you will see some cutscenes and fights from outside of the demo. Nothing that should actually SPOIL you. Also please consider liking, commenting and subscribing!!

The fact that they brought back Great Jaggi and prove he still exists to the team is reason enough.

When I saw stories 2 come out, I was just so happy that the series was actually supported and not just abandoned. Seeing Ratha as an old Rathalos quite literally brought me to tears. While the gene aspect can be confusing, even daunting for new riders, it's fun once you learn the ropes. Overall very great game in my opinion.

Not sure if this feature came in a patch after-the-fact, but currently there is a system to instantly finish a fight to which you’re clearly overpowered. So, ‘avoiding’ fights is less incentivized; since you can finish them as soon as they begin, it’s easy to farm the respective parts.

It feels like this game had lots of passion go into it actually. Capcom put the time and care needed to make this game good and really wants it to succeed. I've been seeing pretty great reviews for this game too so I hope it sells well. If it does then I'm sure a MHS3 is more than confirmed. I think Capcom likes this spinoff as much as we do lol

Honestly i feel happy knowing a 3rd mh stories game isint entirely out of the question

I just completed the game. No spoilers but yeah I enjoyed it more than I thought. It gets slow during the middle and there’s always stuff that can be better but I found myself enjoying the characters, the charming style, and the relative challenge it provides. While some characters like Ena could use more back story and development, new and returning characters mesh well together. It’s my first delve into Monster Hunter ever and I really want to see more of what they got. It’s got it’s time to be silly and it’s time to be serious. I genuinely hope there are more games to come from the MH Stories Series

Memories of the first games eggs make me smile. My brother for my birthday made me a physical, printed book of the egg colors and shapes. He made it in Photo shop* and even made it proper with a back... Good times. Shame it's useless now XD

On 4:20 you talked about the game's battle length, this is actually a topic that usually puts me off when picking and motivating myself from finishing RPG titles, but one thing that I liked when playing the demo is to know that you can skip the battles by holding ZL + ZR on the Switch if you are high level enough. I think that this feature should make level & material grind less tedious in the long run. What has been your experience in this aspect?

Got it. I'm gonna make a team with 5 Zamtrios.

Note: in Stories 1's 3ds version, all QTE's were button based

Also do color changing of monsties according to their elemental tendency still in the game? In first one you can change monstie’s color if it have enough element attack stat of certain element.

New to your channel- you’re like Joseph Anderson but with videos I can watch without quitting my job and hibernating. Subbed.

[oddlyozel]

I actually like that you can't control the battle buddy, it feels more natural? Like I'm actually playing with a pal :)

[chayimweinstock]

This game filled the void in my heart that Sword/Shield left. I adored Stories 1 and my hopes were sky high here, this game actually met them with a fairly interesting story, a fun battle system, and a nice amount of replay value.

[frostdragonheart]

Alright, this was an amazing review! Nailed everything! You've even persuaded me to get Stories 2 on PC.

[potitus]

I remember I spent most of the time changing a Monstie's element completely to see what part of their body changes in color. My fav was turning Ratha or any Rathalos to Dragon element and you get this Crimson red Rathalos which looked sick and the fact it is also shown in Cutscenes

[ashenphoenix]

Love this review and love this series and monster hunter as a whole~
I got this on switch becuase i like taking Turn RPGs on the go. Dont like booting up a whole consol or PC to play stuff like that as much. Plus it ran good enough for me at least on switch. But your right im sure its way better running on pc

[Aykalia]

im pretty freaking late to the party but the quick time events happen whenever the enemy monster/monstie gets below 50% hp. these will not happen if you are riding your own monstie tough as it is essentially a battle between your monstie and the enemy monster/monstie

[Jayroonify]

Funny how I already started grinding for Monsties with their genes in different slots, but found out through your review that it's not even necessary 😂 Great and informative review!
