Monster Hunter Wilds - Blog Posts
So I've finished it! It's been done for a while now, but... I need some constructive criticism. It also doesn't stand up very well, which I'm wondering would be a bad selling point if I made the pattern.
I think he's cute though, and I don't have the heart to undo all that work lol.

I just need... 3 kut-ku wings... please...

man I love lines
Check out the video of us fighting beta arkveld (badly)
my only critique for mh wilds is that I should be able to run all my graphics on medium EXCEPT the cooking cutscenes which should be ran on ultra.
Great news! This machine is now wilds-able (or it better be)
time to see if the seregios and bloodbath diablos that power my pc like two angry hamsters on a hamster wheel can run wilds

when the full game of MHWilds releases my roommate and i are planning to make a bunch of food from the game to eat during the first day or two it’s out
since there might be barely anything else we do
GUYS, I MADE A BETTER VERSION!
A little drawing to celebrate the release of MHW while I'm still in the moors of Rise.
(Could it have come out better? Now that I'm looking at it rested for sure, I think)
Bsky keeps falsely Auto-Flagging this as "Adult Content" so ig Only Tumblr gets the Chatacabra Blep.
A gif i made of my friend fighting Xeno’Jiiva!!
I am really enjoying this game with breaks. Sometimes I just want to fight big monster.
I don't understand why we can't have a Monster Hunter where we can just run around in the same environment and hang out. Why we can't just be bros and maybe see one another while we're doing other things. Explain.
I love how MH:W has been me and my girl crew saving the world. Erik included.
pls just let me play the game. this is on medium settings. i'm going to have to go full low. 😭
Rompopolo's entire existence gives me anxiety. What if god gave you the body of a balloon animal with swords for arms? You love drinking crude oil but half of the year your entire ecosystem is on fire. Your natural enemy is the humble exploding gorilla.
Monster Hunter Wilds Spoilers below and in tags. You were warned.
Post made around March 2.
With the release of the game and it being out for a bit now, it shows that they were not very willing to hide a few more monsters from us in the trailers, though the few things that wasn’t shown makes a interesting case on fictional biology, with one monster in particular showing how secretly frightening adaption works in the Forbidden Lands.
The one I referred to aren’t the Wylk beasts or the final boss, but Nu Udra's smaller friend who hides much more underneath .
The guy's name is Xu Wu and there is a lot to go off here.
An eyeless octopus with what look to be teeth on its head, something resembling a ponytail behind the “teeth”, markings on it's “face” that either looks like a beard or teeth, tentacles that leak a yellowish fluid that hardens into blade-like crystals, and a mouth less like an octopus beak and more like a very toothy starfish.
It feels less like a monster and more like either a walking fungus, an alien, or something eldritch, something that I adore. I always loved the monsters at actually look like the word monsters and not just big animals like Gigi, Xeno, and Goss.
Even it’s name tells a tale, as while in English it does mean much especially as two words, put it together and you get a Chinese word 虚无 Xūwú (pronounced Shee Wu), which translates to nothingness, emptiness, or just void.
With how the monster is small, speedy, favors ambush and hit & run tactics, it seemingly considering most creatures, even humans in two cases(you & a villager) as prey, how it has a false face and a maw of teeth, and how the armor with a Middle East motif and weapons named after famous assassins, you have a monster that, when It’s in the area you pray it doesn’t “see” you before you do lest you vanish.
But the most weird thing is it’s diet and how it adapted to it’s prey.
For one thing, it’s s prey isn’t even natural, or shouldn’t even exist, though some people suggest that they are attracted to strong bioenergy carrying monsters.
The guardians are artificial monsters born of the living mass knows as the dragontorch, basically gene manipulation by the ancient civilization to create homunculi.
And these guys aren’t random monsters, they’re dangerous in their own ways, Doshaguma may be the easy to make grunts that could have a leader, Rathalos are the eyes in the sky, Ebony the patrolling sentry with speed and violence to act on, Fulgur the brute to deal with big problems, Arkveld the unpredictable due to monsters or problems having no defenses against an extinct monster, and Zoh Shia, who might as well be a man-made god of hate.
All of these guys (an argument for Doshaguma) are basically apex-elder tier threats. Something a foolish person thinks would work well for defense.
And Xu Wu basically wins every “turf war” with the guardians. Calling them turf wars feels wrong as 3/4 of them starts after Xu Wu knocks its prey over and starts eating them until they escape.
Ebony gets at least a fight, but ends up skewered and thrown away.
Arkveld might tie with a few hits from Xu Wu until the chains get him, and he isn’t elder level enough for Zoh Shia, but it’s still an interesting thought.
Think it this way: you are a scientist who created powerful artificial life forms to prove you are a god, but nature outdid you already with a creature that was born to prey on the strong, energy rich monster, which your creation fits the bill.
It then proceeds to turn your work into a snack with the only things that could win one of a kind monsters you aren’t willing to lose.
You tried to play god, but nature one upped you without effort. You can never surpass the natural world because it already found a biological version of what you thought of.
You lost a fight to the natural order before you even got started.
Arkveld is really smart when you think about it design wise.
Ghosts don’t exist in Monster Hunter, so how would they make a ghost flagship (who recall, is titled “The White Wraith”)?
Obviously there’s the design, a wyvern whose wrists look shackled and bound by broken chains, a shaggy white coat of fur and cloaked wings… It’s chains burning with ghostly white flames before turning to a bloody, vengeful red.
Yeah yeah design is awesome… But lore! How does Arkveld lorewise connect to a ghost?
Simple… Arkveld is an ecological ghost.
Its species is dead, it is dead, the world has adapted and reshaped without it. Arkveld’s species is artificially revived, mankind’s machinations bringing something that should be dead back into the world of the living.
Something dead, dragged forcefully back onto the living world.
Pretty ghostly if you ask me
Rather have parts broken than glowing
Gaping side wound will be really big in 2025
LIVE NOW playing Monster Hunter Wilds!
Come join me for a chill time~
Join me here!!
Falling asleep for a month and missing the initial drop of Arch-Tempered Shocky Boi? Sad. Tragic even.
Work said naw to the Monster Hunter Wilds grind, but a bunch of new hires freed up my hours and actually let me get some progress under my belt. Theeeeen--I discovered the changes to fishing, and let me say...
My only goal is to gold crown every. Single. Fish.
And make those Gajau boots for my pursuit of fashion, but it's just a win-win scenario at that point.

He's just a little guy look at him and his little hat
"A legendary black dragon said to have prowled these lands from the days of old. Many skilled hunters have sought to challenge it, but none ever return. A monster shrouded in mystery..." Fatalis description from Monster Hunter Freedom 2/Unite --- "My armor is like tenfold shields, my teeth are swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath death!" -Smaug from The Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien
While I doubt they'll actually get added to wilds, it occurred to me recently that Seltas and Seltas queen would work really fucking well with wilds' Alpha/Pack system.
Like, imagine a quest similar to Alpha Doshaguma and it's massive pack that happens in the windward plains but it's a Seltas queen and her swarm of Seltas followers in the scarlet forest. I just think that'd be neat, especially with how underutilised the Alpha monsters were in wilds.
