Monster Hunter Documentary guy. he/him.

Find my thoughts on games, shows etc. that I finish under #OceanizMediaThread

The ecosystems of Monster Hunter Wilds feel like they were tailor-made for me, the documentary guy.

So, lets dive into the red waters of the Scarlet Forest and discover the intricacies of this beautiful hunting ground!

Now that the Scarlet Forest Docu is OUT, I can finally show off my favorite shot from the recording session:

Catching the orange sun rise over Wyveria/Iceshard Cliffs, really dramatic change of time and color

Seeing as the graphs me and @zugzwangmh.bsky.social made have traveled quite far, I do feel a responsibility to repeat the notes I added to my original post so that they can be viewed in full context🧵

Out of curiosity, @zugzwangmh.bsky.social and I collected some Monster Hunter sales data and charted them by how much they sold in X number of days after launch.

So here are the last six Monster Hunter games/expansions and how well they did in their first 800 days post-release!

I know there are common sentiments about Wilds... But please also consider the success of the marketing! More info in reply...

"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

Now that the video is done I can stop playing Monster Hunter Wilds for work and instead relax by playing Monster Hunter Wilds for fun

For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

It's open season on the world's most dangerous heroes, and you're just who we need to track them all down. Announcing a massive Monster Hunter crossover in Dota 2 with new sets, new pets, a new in-game hunt and crafting system, and of course monsters.

Whatever production time and cost was "saved" by using AI for one of the most human-dependent disciplines in game making was actively obliterated by the act itself, overshadowing the hard work of every single other developer on the project and making this situation impossible to right. WHO KNEW.

I'll be the fun police.

Don't play Arc Raiders. Do better. Play a game with real voice acting.
Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.
