Pokémon Unite Developer Releasing New Monster Hunter Game For Mobile Devices

Breath of the Wilds

This looks like Genshin wearing a Monster Hunter skin. I also have no confidence in games like these due to being on cellphones for one- and also being produced by Tencent means heavy micro-transactions.

I don't get how people are able to play 3D open world games with action combat like Genshin, Wuthering Waves or this on a smartphone.

I couldn't imagine playing such a game with a touchscreen instead of a controller

@mariomaster96 I never really got it either. It’s like you need a very high end phone in my opinion. I have an iPhone 7 Plus. I sure as hell can’t play these games. Controllers feel necessary for games like those in my opinion.

1) Having an iPhone 7 Plus isn’t the norm. Most people are above iPhone XS/XR. Granted, these games drain batteries like crazy still.

2) Phones have Bluetooth. There are Bluetooth controllers designed for this use case (Backbone), and you can also connect console controllers to phones. I’ve connected my Switch controller to my Apple TV and to my iPhone before. They even have phone mount clips that attach to controllers.

What I don’t get is wanting to play these watered down games that reek of micro-transactions just to drain your phone battery, while there’s a great console game that those games are based off of.

What a waste of resources... I hope it flops that capcom focuses more on the real games

@geo-shifter
1) pls just google but most people have far more crappy phones than you might think.

2) most people play those crappy microtransaction 3d games like genshin impact without a bluetooth gamepad or a backbone.

@geo-shifter last part is true, I rather play my games on my PC/Switch + other handhelds instead.

But I did make a exception for Pokémon GO and Kairosoft games on mobile, that's all play on it excluding emulation.

@jojobar you don't need a expensive phone to play games like Genshin, anything with a Helio G99 and above is fine, and you can find that chip in cheap Motorola and Samaung phones for less than 130 euro brand new.

This is surely going to release on the Switch 2, if so then I will definitely give it a go.

Another gachya trash... Sigh

Oh boy, $40 Skins.

Why does the link for the text: "sign up for the official email now" go to Twitter instead of the actual place you can sign up?

I love Monster Hunter, but involvement of TiMi is very concerning as they do not have a good history of supporting their games long term due to heavy focus on monetization.

Eh, I don't like huge 3D phone games; they would probably take up a huge chunk of storage.

@Rayquaza2510 , @jojobar already said it, but your phone doesn’t need to be that high end. But like I said, regardless, it’s still battery draining even for the latest phones.

Also, I didn’t say most people play these games with Bluetooth gamepads. @LavenderShroud stated they feel like controllers are necessary, and I just responded with the fact that there are options.

Regardless, your responses prove my point even more as to why waste time playing these games. Battery draining, lack of a decent phone, touch screen instead of a controller.
