Nef-Garmat's crystals being bright blue and powered by draining the energy of the environment is basically set up PERFECTLY to have been explained as bioenergy thanks to World's lore. It would be incredibly easy to retroactively alter without actually changing anything about it.
Would be a missed opportunity not putting the LITERAL DESERT DRAGON OF BLUE CRYSTALS on the game where the main trailers are on a WASTELAND DESERT OF BLUE CRYSTALS.
Seeing the wilds demo from gamescom and pax i feel this would be a very good endgame monster it fits too well with Reydao and the crystals that can be found in the desert are very similar.
The Lagiacrus subspecies being unironically named "Land Conquest Lagiacrus" made me laugh harder than i should, now imagining the Vikings pulling up with a whale sized death crocodile.
Honestly I think Nef Garmat could work super well in Wilds. Just from what little we have seen of Wilds it looks like a large part of the region will be dry steppes which could be at the edge of a dessert. His ability to drain energy from the ground would work well with the bioenergies that exists in the new world, his crystals even have almost the same colour as the bioenergy.
Morudomunto gives me huge Wendigo vibes, what with his dark wintery aesthetic and his multiple 'mouths' really hammering home the insatiable predator vibe.
So basically moru’s wings are gigginoxified. It’s consistent enough with other elder dragon biologies, and leads me to believe nakarkos may also be capable of consumption with its arms’ openings.
i mean nakarkos tentacles may look like heads but they arent actual heads/mouths. they almost look more like trunks than secondary mouths, especially considering they are preety much puppeteering fake heads.
Oh the things I would do to see Morudomunto in the future of Monster Hunter, while also including Nef Garmat and Eo Garudia as well naturally. Words do not do them all justice, they are all 11/10 creations. Explore is in the same vein as Frontier of being on my bucket list for games I want to play, so it really gives me a lot of heart hearing a revival is currently in the works. I’m happy to have gone on these adventures with you CR, and I hope to tune more into the Frontier streams sometime. Cheers.
It's interesting how similar Nefu is to Safi. If it ever came back I suspect that the induction crystals will be explained as being crystallised bio energy.
About the thing on top of Seabream Plesioth's head, it's a Kagami Mochi. A traditional Japanese decoration consisting of two mochi stacked with the smaller one placed atop the larger one, and an orange with an attached leaf on top.
While Kirin has never full on teleported around like Thunder Emperor. The 4u Kirin intro shows some more lore accurate speed, using the lightning to disorientate and distract the hunter to help explain the legend of Kirin's speed
These videos have done such amazing positivity to these games.^^ You had my respect from the Frontier 2-parter, but now, You have become one of my favorite MH UA-camrs.❤
I found out about Morudomunto a few years ago thanks to RageGaming and ever since then, I've been praying that he shows up in one of the mainline Monster hunter games because he would be absolutely insane! The fight would be amazing, the armor would look amazing, just everything about him would be amazing if put into modern Monster Hunter! Perhaps Wilds will finally be his chance? Only time will tell...
I sorta like the idea that Eo Garudia is not a relative of Nef Garmat, but is just what male Nef Garmat looks like. Maybe Nef desertifies regions it intends to nest in to push out predators that would hunt its young (If we’re putting it in the new world, it’d probably also kill Nergigante’s spines to prevent it from reproducing nearby so it doesn’t hunt Nef or the hatchlings) It doesn’t fly much because it doesn’t need to, it stays around its nest. Eo flies around to maximize the distance it can travel and thus the number of Nef Garmats it can mate with. Unsure why it undoes Nef’s desertification, maybe it’s to endanger the hatchlings, since if the babies Nef had with another Eo die, then it needs to mate again. Or more positively it is to bring back food for the hatchlings once they’re old enough to defend themselves.
I never thought that MH Explore's Trio of Elders dragons are fcking wild, both in lore and fights. Now im on board to see them back in some form, but not Morudomunto. I.WANT.HIM.BACK AS IS!!! This sick drgn deserves the spotlight of modernity to it
I would absolutely LOVE if the four Explore-original monsters could come to mainline Monster Hunter. Nef Garnet especially is so freaking cool and I also need a plushie of him. Also don’t knock Sweet Tooth Tigrex down! He wanted to show everyone his therapy plushies! Probably my favorite of the silly crossover monsters simply because he is a fellow plushie enjoyer.
Fan fact: Morudomunto's name came from two words in German language, and roughly translated to, and i quot, : "The *MURDEROUS MOUTH*"... That's very self-describing name. P.S. And I was thinking that Nef-Garmat was that 11/10 monster that was mentioned in seconds Frontier video. And when Eo Garudia pass by, my mind was like: "No shot is Morudo is THAT monster!"... And here we are - my personal favourite Explore OC dragon is wining 11/10 raiting. YEAH! Morudomunto in main line would be BLOODY SICK and I here all for it! P.S.S. And just right now i found out than Morudo took Albertosaurus roar from JP: operation genesis.
morudomunto is such a crazy design and i love it. Hoping he somehow gets into a mainline game. I recently saw art of him beating nergigante and now i need to see a terf war between them so badly.
Immortal Zinogre could be such a cool and dynamic fight if they expanded on the healing fulgurbugs. Imagine being able to get healing from stray bugs but also voluntarily inflicting yourself with thunderblight or an enhanced thunderblight that can't be negated with blight resistance skills. If you've got nulberries with you, you'd have to decide if you wanna ration them out and only use them when necessary or throw caution to the wind, using them to get big healing while also burning out some of your supplies much faster (although there'd probably need to be some tuning so you can't just restock your items mid-hunt and continue with more nulberries). Resource trades that encourage more skillful play would be really cool to see more of in MH.
Induction crystals are probably the reason TEPPEN introduced the Great Apypos and Nef-Garmat. The expansion they were added in was one in a three-part storyline about Myria, a malevolent goddess and the main antagonist of Breath of Fire III. In this storyline, Myria had access to magic crystal stones that, when embedded in a being's forehead, put their minds under her control. A Great Apypos and Nef-Garmat both got mind-control stones, and she used them as guardians to stop the heroes from crossing a region called the Desert of Death. I believe those monsters and not the entire Explore roster were chosen *because of* their preexisting connection to supernatural crystals, and the desert environments they call home.
Thunder Emperor Kirin lore idea: A Kirin that kills a Rajang to take the stolen power back and harnesses the collectove power of its dozens of slain kin
Also although Frozen Barrioth never made in one to one in mainline. Frostfang being labelled Frozen Barrioth in those data files might not have been a mistranslation. From it's reasoning for the variant being the same, (living in a harsher, colder environment,) the increase in it's ice abilities, the darker hue of the tusks and having blue ice on the tusks of Frostfang- It wouldn't surprise me if Frostfang was inspired directly by Frozen Barrioth and perhaps even shared the name early on, before being changed? This is all speculation of course, but it's fun to think about 🤷♂
Shower thought: Immortal zinogre’s thunderbugs instead stimulate cellular division drastically, effectively restoring part breaks and health. But, instead he loses his thunder powers, and is just more physically powerful. Maybe have his charged state work like how hakari reflexively heals, but maybe have him be stunned, also have him sport a more arrogant and reckless self damaging attacks, which then he enters his healing charged state, then etc. (The ultimate drag on fight)
Fiercewater could be a population of narga that are trapped on a sodden island, and having SO MUCH water in their system that they have to expel it, and the enhanced water release mechanisms were then modified into offensive tools.
As Always thank you for all the hard work you and your team have put into this video. I am very happy to have seen this awesome presentation, featuring crazy and cool monsters that I wish I could fight, just perfect. ❤
Holy shit! I did not expect something like Morodomunto to show up, and while every monster in this series has made me excited and I’ve loved in one way or another, this one takes the cake. He’s so fucking rad. Doesn’t help that my other favourite games are soulslikes and he reminds me so much of a Dark Souls boss like Manus, especially with that gorgeous dark and forboding theme, its that deep achapella man. Edit: Just saw the wing mouths. Awesome. Luckily I’m not one to value realism a whole lot, and though I do appreciate the fact that monster hunter has it in its art direction, I really love the creativity, the feeling and the personality something more fictional or fantasy-like can create a bit more. Wicked. I really hope this guy comes back!
its crazy red hair and the fact that (at least according to the wiki) it does ice damage means that enma rajang might be closer to akaza than the swamp demon (since there was alot of ice theming with him as seen during his battle with rengoku and the fact he is a martial artist (which rajang is the king of throwing hands in MH so it makes sense))
The two fire raths could honestly work as like, Variants in the main series if they wanted to be "revamped", maybe base em off the Phoenix or something, and for Fire Rathalos they could give him Dragon or something to make him more interesting. Also the explore original dragons are all peak 🙏
How dare you make this wonderful video bringing back the obscure, unused, unloved, uknown, underappreciated and AWESOME monsters that need all the attention they deserve on a channel where they will be introduced for the first time to many hunters that will grow to love and adore these monsters... BEFORE I CAN INTRODUCE THEM TO THE PLAYERS OF MY MH DND CAMPAIGN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THEY MIGHT SEE THIS VIDEO MAN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Andrew if you see this comment I FORBID YOU from watching this video. I FORBID YOU.
1.5 week later, the algorithm recommended this to me. Sadly the game doesn't give much info regarding the monsters. They simply release the monster quest, refuse to elaborate further and leave. I can relate the whole nightmarish feeling trying to study Black Star Beast Volvidon. (Get it? study? Because I wear a school uniform) It was a 16 Hunters Quests that only lasted for 2 weeks. Hence the footage is very scarce. Even with my slightly above average lingual advantage, I could only find 5 videos about it. From the footage, the odour attack can randomly inflict Burn/Shocked/Noxious Poison/Sleep, sometimes also accompanied with Paralysis. Sorry for making it difficult to look up but it is in 16 Hunters Quest Compilation at the 6 minute mark. It was stressful because I wanted to include as much as I can. Maybe it could do even more but I have researched as much as I could. The extra tidbits that you gave to all these monsters are cool! More reasons behind the design and execution would be superb. Sadly, they didn't release artbook collection for Monster Hunter Explore for more insights.
Oh hey! Nice to see ya here. Well I gotta tell ya, your work made this video way better than it would have been otherwise. Lmao. May have been limited but I think I got something pretty entertaining out of these fairly obscure monsters
@@cr-volcanic I'm glad you find my works make it easier to understand mhxr's fun stuff. The game being region exclusive and on mobile only is enough to make bad reputation. But you can see how much fun they had when designing these monsters
11:29 Hey look Capcom took inspiration from here for the bow new moves lol. Also would be funny if earth element was a thing and mostly served to exhaust monsters so you could have exhaust builds sacrificing a bit of damage for it.
So, I had heard of and seen images of Thunderbubble Mizu a while before Sunbreak and its title updates came out, so I was familiar with it and thought it was very cool. Then when the Sunbreak title updates started coming out and I saw a purple Mizutsune in the title update trailer I got a little bit excited, but then got mildly let down by it being a fire element Violet Mizu. Now I'd like to make it clear that I don't Violet is bad, but I would have taken Thunderbubble over another version of Mizutsune with flaming/explosive bubbles.
For Mordomunto, my idea would be that the wing mouths are like the folds of a Venus Flytrap. You're trapped and acid slowly breaks you down before your juices are absorbed through the inner membrane into either it's actual digestive system or even sending the nutrients directly into it's bloodstream!
I believe Virulent Gigginox's color scheme is supposed to be evocative of venomous sea life, like the Blue-Ringed Octopus (one of the deadliest things on Earth despite it's dimunitive size). It's probably to warn off rival predators.
Explosive Peak Duramblros should shoot fireballs or meteors or whatever out of its back and then use a tail swipe to bat them at the player. The helicopter sttack should have fireballs spewing from it that get picked up on the tail in the spin, and when it drops down it causes an explosion centred on the tail that flicks the tail back up so that overeager players get caught by the tail slamming back down again. The Exhausted move variation would still have it stop, and topples would still work, but they would also have tail explosions into much lesser slaps. And when it gets up off of a topple it should fire off the peak to help it get up.
Great video as always! I also really hope we see some of Explore's OG monsters in a mainline game, any of them would do it for me. Question about Immortal Zinogre though, I thought I had heard that instead of symbiosis with Fulgur Bugs it had a symbiosis with God Bugs? I thought it was the whole God Bugs are biologically immortal, so they have good medicinal properties for crafting healing items, but apply it to a Zinogre instead? I am probably completely wrong and just heard some fan theory about him.
Looking back, I realized that the funky Gigginox colour scheme is actually just either a Salamander, Poison Dart Frog or Blue Ring Octopus. It's not hiding, because it has colors that basically tell everything it doesn't need to.
I have a theory about Nef Garmat and Eo Gurudia, and that's that in actuality they're both the SAME monster. By which I mean that they're the same species but more specifically the male and female examples of their species. Similarly to the relationship Teo and Luna have or the raths. Where they have some physical similarities but at the same time look VERY different from eachother to the point they're given different names. Nef Garmat I like to think is the male, just based on it's overall color scheme. It's got relitively muted colors overall. But the most important factor that leans me towards it being the male is it's behaviour of actively looking for a specific ore in the sand. Which is likely used in display courtship to signify the strength of the Nef Garmat to the potential mate of Eo Garudia. Either based on how shiny the crystal is or how large. Also it being classified as a death dragon probably makes sense if it's a very aggressive monster. That's in heat/musk like an elephant which can be EXTREMELY dangerous, and I could see how a roided up horny elder dragon could cause issues. Hell NORMAL monsters in monsters have that going for them and they're just as feared for that reason. Big examples being Glavanus, Seregios, and Mizutsune. Every single one canonnically is male for a reason and that reason is that they're in heat. But on the subject of Eo Garudia them being female makes a lot of sense just based on their lore. She's literally called the "life giver" yet nothing about her abilities really signify that at all. She doesn't like magically make plants grow around her or anything. Hell one of her elements fire, which I guess sure you could argue can help create life because if you burn plants it creates carbon which plants love, and does help them grow. But we fight them in a desert?? So where is the title "life giver" coming from exactly UNLESS they mean she "gives life" to the next generation of the Set Garmat and Eo Garudia species. Capcom wouldn't put so much emphasis on two elders having such a close connection of they either werent related and keep eachother in check somehow. Which at least for that second option we have no lore given example of the two fighting eachother for dominance or anything. They just say they're connected as "life and death".
A video I was waiting for, very cool, but aren't you going to make a video about the monsters in the Stories games ?, because it would be a relatively short video with only 6 new EX variants of old monsters 1 non-EX variation of Arzuros, 3 new Elder Dragons and 1 new monster in the unknown category. My favorites are Oltura, Versa Pietru and Kurenai Goukami
I honestly think a good way to make flame rathalos more unique is to bring back the poison, and his attacks that already can cause fire to also give blastblight at the same time, maybe some other attacks could as well.
I love Morudomunto. I love his hellish, almost undead design. I love his attacks. I love the body horror that is inherent to him in his entirety. I love his theme. It's almost like something out of Bloodborne. Unfortunately, I've never played Explore so I was never able to fight him. He is easily one of if not the most heavy metal monster in all of Monster Hunter. I have hope that he'll be introduced to the mainline series. If Frontier monsters like Espinas can be brought in, why not monsters from Online or Explore?
as far as extra wet Nargacuga goes, i think an interesting way to explain its new water spray abilities is likening it to those pistol fish they shoot water at bug to knock them into the water. Maybe it has a focus on aerial prey, and the high pressue blasts knock them out of the sky, or even cut their waings, and narga can finsih them off as they're stunned fromm the landing. I'd imagine in a few million years the aua narga would even lose its tail spines as it becomes more and more specialized into storing water for the high pressure blasts
Its always funny looking back at Explore and Nef-Garmat cuz World really took his whole flow bar for bar and used it to make the lore about bio energy, stream stones, Xeno/Safi (bio energy draining) and Shara (Terra forming) but almost no one noticed cuz Explore was even more niche than Frontier at the time. Seeing just how much World took from side games and the "portable" team is always interesting seeing as after Worlds release a chunk of the fanbase started looking down on non numbered titles.
Yeah its kinda funny to see the teams that get made outta different facets of Monster Hunter and the little snipes they take at one another when the reality is that Monster Hunter is way more fluid and self-inspiring and not two teams whatsoever lmao
Fun fact for ya. Morudomunto is a Gairaigo, specifically a wasei-doitsu. Morudo is taken from the german word Mord while munto was taken from Mund. It's literally called Murdermouth. It's so damn metal! I love it.
I’ve been dreaming of a Kirin that can actually teleport since the 4u intro and had no idea it already existed. Neat! Now that Malzeno exists I fully expect a teleporting unicorn of some sort in Wilds.
Honestly, I'd believe that Eo Garudia is moving the wind it controls TOWARDS the ground so hard that it is causing an earthquake and uprooting the ruins.
Another good excuse for Whitewater Plesioth could be that it produces a special slime/mucus to protect itself from harsh sun. The mucus is what produces the bubbles, and the soapy mist that covers Whitewater is the mucus evaporating.
this game is pure unserious creativity with these variants and i love it to death we NEED to see watermelon uragaan in wilds dude they cant let this die out 💔💔
This might be the Copium speaking, but I'm now convinced that Nef Garmat and Eo Garudia are coming to Wilds. The Windswept Planes are said to be frequently savaged by sandstorms, and Nef seems to be the elder dragon that represents the concept of sandstorms in the same way Kushala represents tornadoes and Kirin represents thunderstorms. We're told that the planes (and possibly all Wild's locales) will be defined by having times of great prosperity and abundant resources, and times of intense calamity and harsh weather conditions. Nef brings the calamitous sandstorms that force monsters to fight tooth and nail to hold onto what little resources they can, and then Eo arrives to disrupt the storm and return the locale to a more prosperous state
I really want Eo Garudia to return, and also with that life aspect, too. I want to fight it in some oasis or glade, where life is beginning to return to a sandy, rocky environment. Maybe some rocky pyramid structure. I see rock lined with moss a lot and some flowers, and clear, deep blue, cloudless skies with the bright, shining sun. Have thought of a way it could be a life-bringer too, that its hot jetstreams push around clouds and break the tension that holds them together, causing cloudbursts. Which does also lead into the reason to hunt it, because if it's bursting clouds with fire, then that's going to be scalding hot rain, and probably intense flooding too. Could also tie it in somewhere with the notion of forest fires, those are in some regions essential to the local flora, the regional plants rely on them for fertilisation, or to disperse their pollen, this is also why burning fungal-blighted trees is a terrible idea. Maybe the hot winds also blow around the soil that it burns the plants down into, so it can seed new areas and fertilise them. Nef Garmat already knocked everything down and covered it in sand, the hot winds are here to pick it back up, burn it, then put it back in dome other dirt, watered and fertilised.
Capcom probably used Great Apypos as an inspiration for the characters in "Exo-Primal". A large army of small dinosaurs fighting 4-16 hunters, and lead by a single, bigger theropod dinosaur
I personally think that they should add the new monsters from Explore to the mainline series and rework Thunderbubble Mizutsune into a subspecies. Great Apypos would probably need a visual rework so that he doesn't just look like a slightly modified Great Wroggi.
man i love nef garmat so much, i really want him to come to mainline games. Him and baruragaru specifically are my top 2 i want to see before any other
That would not make sense in anyway in an ecosystem but by Fatalis The Black Crown Dragon goes extremely hard with the wing jaws dayum I want him in mainline game because that's a Monster. The way it claws at itself is gave me goosebumps, I don't think any animals self-harm like that. They can add him as easter egg ??? Event quest maybe, no lore, just pure combat solely for enjoying him in a modern engine.
So I have a theory on how Eo Garudia revives desert land. Eo Garudia's crystals might actually be crystalized dragon energy, based of its vivid red color. We know that an over abundance of dragon energy can cause a berserk like state, as seen in Crimson Glow Valstrax. Perhaps, it is attracted to areas that its counterpart Nef Garmat has turned into desert, because they serve as the perfect dumping ground for its dragon energy build up. It crystalizes its dragon energy, before using its powerful winds to essentially drop the crystals off, which give the land the energy it needs to revive itself. Dragon element after all is a little weird, being the power that fuels Elder Dragons and some monsters and even plant life(Dragonfell Berries). It might be possible that the Dragon element and the Bio Energy in Monster Hunter World might be one in the same, perhaps different forms of the same energy, as by our current laws of physics, energy can only be transformed, neither created nor destroyed. Even Nef Garmat's crystals resemble the bright blue glow of Bio Energy. A bit of a side bit though, Eo Garudia and Nef Garmat might also be based of Horus and Set. The two are counterparts to each other. Horus is the God that brings fertile land, Set is the one who brings the desert. Horus would even become Ra's successor in Egyptian myth as well.
The purple orb agnaktor eat could be a purple magna orb for future games 😂 he just goes underground, finds one and thats how he gets the purple fire and blast blight
You know since you mentioned Explosive Peak Duramboros being a variant of a subspecies it is possible Landconquest Lagiacrus could work as a variant of Ivory Lagiacrus... maybe, I don't know man there's so many different types of variations in Monster Hunter outside of the main series. Also I feel like Virulent Gigginox's coloration doesn't feel as bad if you accept it as being aposematic coloration like that of a poison dart frog.
For Fiercewater, I'd ditch the tubes and the whole 'stores water inside it's body' idea. It doesn't need to be faster either, so no water jets. Instead, it's wing blades and tail spikes have curved, almost cup-like, grooves that catch the water as it moves through streams and shallows. It then flicks it's tail or wings in a whipcrack-like motion to fling out water blades. My explanation is the idea that a Nargacuga with a warped/damaged tail figured out how to flick water into it's prey's/rival predator's eyes, giving it an advantage over rival Nargacuga come mating season, as they couldn't duplicate the trick as effectively even if they figured it out themselves. Over time it figured out that it's tail shape helped, and it would then gnaw on it's wing blades, and on it's offsprings' tails and wing blades, to give them the right shape. Over many generations it's offspring evolved their tails and wing blades to naturally have the right shape, and then further improve on that shape to better catch the water and improve on this trick, until they could make actual water blades instead of merely blinding water splashes. It's a little anime, I admit, but it's easier to explain than a Nargacuga somehow evolving water tubes and enough internally modified biology to store said water! As an addition, to compensate for the lack of water jet acceleration, when they tail slam, the grooves in their tail spikes release the cupped water in a blinding splash of mist, so you can't see the second tail slam coming!
Love these types of videos. Do you think you'd ever do one on all the different behemoths in Dauntless or the kemono in Wild Hearts? Would be cool to hear you hype those monsters up the way you do the others lmao
1:12:28 (about) Fierce water Nargacuga could be an amphibious ambush predator. Using his blue color to hide in water and then jump things near the shore. It would explain his longer wind up with faster movement; he winds up under the water and the bolts out of the water to hit something. If they take this angle, he should loose some of his fur (or at least make it more hydro dynamic) so he looks like he belongs in the shallows.
Nef garmat is kind of like safi kiva when you think about it. Moro is kind of like deviljho mixed with gore in terms of lore and behavior. Wouldn’t he be based off of Apophis who has the desire to devour all creation? Heath recover monster, ain’t that kinda like malzeno, but first thing that comes to mind is the Blood Crystal Wyvern from Ark Survival Evolved. TBH those crystal wyverns from Ark would make great monsters in MH and also the Shadowmane. I dare someone to disagree with that. Also explosive peak seems to fit gravios more to me. Shining rock Uragaan, the uragaan subspecies idea we need. “Plesioth with a few cool colored subspecies, then there’s that guy” white water would look better if he had the colors or like a salmon or trout
and now the exotic Monster of series has concluded where will Connor go from here? The weapons from the outside mainlines? maybe venture himself into other monster hunter likes and do a video on his monsters like the aragami from god eater or the traumatizing Archfiend from Soul Sacrifice? the future is unclear and vast. Im excited for anything youll explore from here (hahha get it explore.... like monster hunter explore :P )
I remember about hearing about Explore and waiting for it getting a western release. I really wish I could have experienced it, but I think it will probably be truly dead and gone forever. Apparently Abyssal Lagiacrus was in Explore and I wish I could have seen how underwater combat was handled in that game.
Like to think Frozen Barioth is purple because it has undergone a unique frost-bite, hence it also causing poison (you’re dying from frostbite necrosis)
Black Star Beast Volvidon is unfortunately *not* using water element, as cool of an idea it is. Those water pillars are the Insect Glaives skill. The kinsect used by the player also has a blue-watery effect. On the fight footage for Immortal Zinogre you can see another Insect Glaive user using the same skill, this time with earth element, and it creates rock pillars in similar fashion.
Brownie points for whoever can tell me what music plays for Scorching Heat Rathian and Flame Rathalos
Ghost Rider's MvC3 theme 🔥💀🏍️👊🎶
Hmmm. Is it from the top ten songs to melt cans with album?
I just want to note that I am 90% sure that kirin in frontier when on Hardcore or above is chosen for the quest he can teleport
Nef-Garmat's crystals being bright blue and powered by draining the energy of the environment is basically set up PERFECTLY to have been explained as bioenergy thanks to World's lore. It would be incredibly easy to retroactively alter without actually changing anything about it.
It's the easiest layup in the world dawg.
@@cr-volcanicEasiest layup in the Monster Hunter World.
@@therighttrousers343Or better yet, Wilds
Would be a missed opportunity not putting the LITERAL DESERT DRAGON OF BLUE CRYSTALS on the game where the main trailers are on a WASTELAND DESERT OF BLUE CRYSTALS.
Seeing the wilds demo from gamescom and pax i feel this would be a very good endgame monster it fits too well with Reydao and the crystals that can be found in the desert are very similar.
The Lagiacrus subspecies being unironically named "Land Conquest Lagiacrus" made me laugh harder than i should, now imagining the Vikings pulling up with a whale sized death crocodile.
Honestly I think Nef Garmat could work super well in Wilds.
Just from what little we have seen of Wilds it looks like a large part of the region will be dry steppes which could be at the edge of a dessert. His ability to drain energy from the ground would work well with the bioenergies that exists in the new world, his crystals even have almost the same colour as the bioenergy.
It's a super easy layup
Morudomunto gives me huge Wendigo vibes, what with his dark wintery aesthetic and his multiple 'mouths' really hammering home the insatiable predator vibe.
Oh yeah, absolutely wendigo vibes.
So basically moru’s wings are gigginoxified. It’s consistent enough with other elder dragon biologies, and leads me to believe nakarkos may also be capable of consumption with its arms’ openings.
That sounds horrifying lmao
i mean nakarkos tentacles may look like heads but they arent actual heads/mouths. they almost look more like trunks than secondary mouths, especially considering they are preety much puppeteering fake heads.
the way you described Mordomond is legit hair-raising. legit gave me chills listening to you talk about that super-attack
Lmao thanks man! I try to go extra hard in those sections
Oh the things I would do to see Morudomunto in the future of Monster Hunter, while also including Nef Garmat and Eo Garudia as well naturally. Words do not do them all justice, they are all 11/10 creations.
Explore is in the same vein as Frontier of being on my bucket list for games I want to play, so it really gives me a lot of heart hearing a revival is currently in the works. I’m happy to have gone on these adventures with you CR, and I hope to tune more into the Frontier streams sometime. Cheers.
My chat told me that there is a revival effort underway, it it does come to fruition I'm absolutely playing it
Morudomunto is extreme, the magalas can change the sky but this guy is running on body horrors😱💀💀
It's interesting how similar Nefu is to Safi. If it ever came back I suspect that the induction crystals will be explained as being crystallised bio energy.
Highly likely
Nef Garmat is like a bastard child between Safi'Jiva and Shara Ishvalda, it's awesome
About the thing on top of Seabream Plesioth's head, it's a Kagami Mochi. A traditional Japanese decoration consisting of two mochi stacked with the smaller one placed atop the larger one, and an orange with an attached leaf on top.
While Kirin has never full on teleported around like Thunder Emperor. The 4u Kirin intro shows some more lore accurate speed, using the lightning to disorientate and distract the hunter to help explain the legend of Kirin's speed
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure HC G Rank Kirin in Frontier can also teleport (or at least it's fast enough it looks that way)
And he also "teleports" in his fight against Rajang in the cinematic from MHO
These videos have done such amazing positivity to these games.^^
You had my respect from the Frontier 2-parter, but now, You have become one of my favorite MH UA-camrs.❤
Thank you! I'm proud to provide something that the community as a whole seems to love.
I found out about Morudomunto a few years ago thanks to RageGaming and ever since then, I've been praying that he shows up in one of the mainline Monster hunter games because he would be absolutely insane! The fight would be amazing, the armor would look amazing, just everything about him would be amazing if put into modern Monster Hunter!
Perhaps Wilds will finally be his chance? Only time will tell...
You and I got the same prayers lol
I can't wait to see your reaction to Santa Claus Volvidon lmao

I sorta like the idea that Eo Garudia is not a relative of Nef Garmat, but is just what male Nef Garmat looks like.
Maybe Nef desertifies regions it intends to nest in to push out predators that would hunt its young (If we’re putting it in the new world, it’d probably also kill Nergigante’s spines to prevent it from reproducing nearby so it doesn’t hunt Nef or the hatchlings)
It doesn’t fly much because it doesn’t need to, it stays around its nest.
Eo flies around to maximize the distance it can travel and thus the number of Nef Garmats it can mate with.
Unsure why it undoes Nef’s desertification, maybe it’s to endanger the hatchlings, since if the babies Nef had with another Eo die, then it needs to mate again. Or more positively it is to bring back food for the hatchlings once they’re old enough to defend themselves.
I never thought that MH Explore's Trio of Elders dragons are fcking wild, both in lore and fights. Now im on board to see them back in some form, but not Morudomunto. I.WANT.HIM.BACK AS IS!!! This sick drgn deserves the spotlight of modernity to it
I would absolutely LOVE if the four Explore-original monsters could come to mainline Monster Hunter. Nef Garnet especially is so freaking cool and I also need a plushie of him.
Also don’t knock Sweet Tooth Tigrex down! He wanted to show everyone his therapy plushies! Probably my favorite of the silly crossover monsters simply because he is a fellow plushie enjoyer.
Morudomunto was already one of my favorite elder dragons in the series just based on concepts alone and you’ve sold me even more on it
yeah man, he does some fuckin cool shit
Fan fact: Morudomunto's name came from two words in German language, and roughly translated to, and i quot, : "The *MURDEROUS MOUTH*"... That's very self-describing name.
P.S. And I was thinking that Nef-Garmat was that 11/10 monster that was mentioned in seconds Frontier video. And when Eo Garudia pass by, my mind was like: "No shot is Morudo is THAT monster!"... And here we are - my personal favourite Explore OC dragon is wining 11/10 raiting. YEAH! Morudomunto in main line would be BLOODY SICK and I here all for it!
P.S.S. And just right now i found out than Morudo took Albertosaurus roar from JP: operation genesis.
I have heard about the roar stealing as well lmao. Yeah no dude, Moru is fuckin SICK. love that dude
I cannot get over how you narrate/describe abilities, I was fully locked in for Morudomunto 😭
Fantastic video!
Fr, his descriptions are perfect for showing the real might of these godly creatures.
I try to go extra hard for the scripts in those areas
morudomunto is such a crazy design and i love it. Hoping he somehow gets into a mainline game. I recently saw art of him beating nergigante and now i need to see a terf war between them so badly.
He's nutty but they could totally get him to work
Immortal Zinogre could be such a cool and dynamic fight if they expanded on the healing fulgurbugs. Imagine being able to get healing from stray bugs but also voluntarily inflicting yourself with thunderblight or an enhanced thunderblight that can't be negated with blight resistance skills. If you've got nulberries with you, you'd have to decide if you wanna ration them out and only use them when necessary or throw caution to the wind, using them to get big healing while also burning out some of your supplies much faster (although there'd probably need to be some tuning so you can't just restock your items mid-hunt and continue with more nulberries). Resource trades that encourage more skillful play would be really cool to see more of in MH.
Yeah, maybe he’s typically a more weak and frail Zinogre that can jack himself up with the healing bolts if you let him or something
Induction crystals are probably the reason TEPPEN introduced the Great Apypos and Nef-Garmat. The expansion they were added in was one in a three-part storyline about Myria, a malevolent goddess and the main antagonist of Breath of Fire III.
In this storyline, Myria had access to magic crystal stones that, when embedded in a being's forehead, put their minds under her control. A Great Apypos and Nef-Garmat both got mind-control stones, and she used them as guardians to stop the heroes from crossing a region called the Desert of Death.
I believe those monsters and not the entire Explore roster were chosen *because of* their preexisting connection to supernatural crystals, and the desert environments they call home.
Thunder Emperor Kirin lore idea: A Kirin that kills a Rajang to take the stolen power back and harnesses the collectove power of its dozens of slain kin
That’s fuckin tough, dude!
Also although Frozen Barrioth never made in one to one in mainline. Frostfang being labelled Frozen Barrioth in those data files might not have been a mistranslation. From it's reasoning for the variant being the same, (living in a harsher, colder environment,) the increase in it's ice abilities, the darker hue of the tusks and having blue ice on the tusks of Frostfang- It wouldn't surprise me if Frostfang was inspired directly by Frozen Barrioth and perhaps even shared the name early on, before being changed?
This is all speculation of course, but it's fun to think about 🤷♂
Shower thought: Immortal zinogre’s thunderbugs instead stimulate cellular division drastically, effectively restoring part breaks and health. But, instead he loses his thunder powers, and is just more physically powerful. Maybe have his charged state work like how hakari reflexively heals, but maybe have him be stunned, also have him sport a more arrogant and reckless self damaging attacks, which then he enters his healing charged state, then etc. (The ultimate drag on fight)
I was so hyped for this, great work as usual man. Now I’m thinking about what kind of Volvidon variant I’d want^-^
Appreciate it
Excellent work bringing this series to its conclusion. Loved it, and I feel like I know Monster Hunter a fair bit better now.
More than happy to do a lil work preserving these monsters
Fiercewater could be a population of narga that are trapped on a sodden island, and having SO MUCH water in their system that they have to expel it, and the enhanced water release mechanisms were then modified into offensive tools.
yeah its a bit of a longshot but you can kinda mental gymnastics your way into making it work
As Always thank you for all the hard work you and your team have put into this video. I am very happy to have seen this awesome presentation, featuring crazy and cool monsters that I wish I could fight, just perfect. ❤
I'm very glad you enjoyed!
Holy shit! I did not expect something like Morodomunto to show up, and while every monster in this series has made me excited and I’ve loved in one way or another, this one takes the cake.
He’s so fucking rad. Doesn’t help that my other favourite games are soulslikes and he reminds me so much of a Dark Souls boss like Manus, especially with that gorgeous dark and forboding theme, its that deep achapella man.
Edit: Just saw the wing mouths. Awesome. Luckily I’m not one to value realism a whole lot, and though I do appreciate the fact that monster hunter has it in its art direction, I really love the creativity, the feeling and the personality something more fictional or fantasy-like can create a bit more. Wicked. I really hope this guy comes back!
His biology blew my mind the first time I saw it too.
its crazy red hair and the fact that (at least according to the wiki) it does ice damage means that enma rajang might be closer to akaza than the swamp demon (since there was alot of ice theming with him as seen during his battle with rengoku and the fact he is a martial artist (which rajang is the king of throwing hands in MH so it makes sense))
The two fire raths could honestly work as like, Variants in the main series if they wanted to be "revamped", maybe base em off the Phoenix or something, and for Fire Rathalos they could give him Dragon or something to make him more interesting. Also the explore original dragons are all peak 🙏
They gotta come up with some new ideas for Rathalos variations lmao. They all go for super duper fire lmao
I really want Explore Monsters in the main series games, especially Nef-Garmat as it’s so unique for a flagship!
How dare you make this wonderful video bringing back the obscure, unused, unloved, uknown, underappreciated and AWESOME monsters that need all the attention they deserve on a channel where they will be introduced for the first time to many hunters that will grow to love and adore these monsters...
BEFORE I CAN INTRODUCE THEM TO THE PLAYERS OF MY MH DND CAMPAIGN AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
THEY MIGHT SEE THIS VIDEO MAN
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Andrew if you see this comment I FORBID YOU from watching this video. I FORBID YOU.
lol, sorry bud
1.5 week later, the algorithm recommended this to me.
Sadly the game doesn't give much info regarding the monsters.
They simply release the monster quest, refuse to elaborate further and leave.
I can relate the whole nightmarish feeling trying to study Black Star Beast Volvidon. (Get it? study? Because I wear a school uniform)
It was a 16 Hunters Quests that only lasted for 2 weeks. Hence the footage is very scarce.
Even with my slightly above average lingual advantage, I could only find 5 videos about it.
From the footage, the odour attack can randomly inflict Burn/Shocked/Noxious Poison/Sleep, sometimes also accompanied with Paralysis.
Sorry for making it difficult to look up but it is in 16 Hunters Quest Compilation at the 6 minute mark.
It was stressful because I wanted to include as much as I can.
Maybe it could do even more but I have researched as much as I could.
The extra tidbits that you gave to all these monsters are cool! More reasons behind the design and execution would be superb.
Sadly, they didn't release artbook collection for Monster Hunter Explore for more insights.
Oh hey! Nice to see ya here. Well I gotta tell ya, your work made this video way better than it would have been otherwise. Lmao. May have been limited but I think I got something pretty entertaining out of these fairly obscure monsters
@@cr-volcanic I'm glad you find my works make it easier to understand mhxr's fun stuff. The game being region exclusive and on mobile only is enough to make bad reputation.
But you can see how much fun they had when designing these monsters
Morudomunto always reminded me of Nosferatu Zodd for some reason, i think it is the Head shape and Demeanor. One hell of a Badass Monster!
woaaaaah the stretchy wings on the crown monster are CRAZY i love that
The fight looks mad fun
11:29
Hey look Capcom took inspiration from here for the bow new moves lol.
Also would be funny if earth element was a thing and mostly served to exhaust monsters so you could have exhaust builds sacrificing a bit of damage for it.
So, I had heard of and seen images of Thunderbubble Mizu a while before Sunbreak and its title updates came out, so I was familiar with it and thought it was very cool.
Then when the Sunbreak title updates started coming out and I saw a purple Mizutsune in the title update trailer I got a little bit excited, but then got mildly let down by it being a fire element Violet Mizu.
Now I'd like to make it clear that I don't Violet is bad, but I would have taken Thunderbubble over another version of Mizutsune with flaming/explosive bubbles.
Exact same line of thinking
Great Video as always! Purple Orb my beloved 💜
Nef-Garmat's design would also be a good excuse to bring back Atahl-Ka from GU
For Mordomunto, my idea would be that the wing mouths are like the folds of a Venus Flytrap. You're trapped and acid slowly breaks you down before your juices are absorbed through the inner membrane into either it's actual digestive system or even sending the nutrients directly into it's bloodstream!
i would think you get shredded into a fine paste and acid finishes the job pretty quickly. Morudomunto needs to get these nutrients in its system FAST
damn, this channel is really underrated, already loving it
Thank you! Let's hope we can get us properly rated in due time lmao
I believe Virulent Gigginox's color scheme is supposed to be evocative of venomous sea life, like the Blue-Ringed Octopus (one of the deadliest things on Earth despite it's dimunitive size). It's probably to warn off rival predators.
Morudumnto is something I never knew existed but now knowing of it
I NEED THIS MONSTER IN MAINLINE. WHAT A F-ING METAL DESIGN.
It’s sick as fuck man
46:02 look at this fanart
Explosive Peak Duramblros should shoot fireballs or meteors or whatever out of its back and then use a tail swipe to bat them at the player. The helicopter sttack should have fireballs spewing from it that get picked up on the tail in the spin, and when it drops down it causes an explosion centred on the tail that flicks the tail back up so that overeager players get caught by the tail slamming back down again. The Exhausted move variation would still have it stop, and topples would still work, but they would also have tail explosions into much lesser slaps. And when it gets up off of a topple it should fire off the peak to help it get up.
That’s a sick as fuck idea
Great video as always! I also really hope we see some of Explore's OG monsters in a mainline game, any of them would do it for me.
Question about Immortal Zinogre though, I thought I had heard that instead of symbiosis with Fulgur Bugs it had a symbiosis with God Bugs? I thought it was the whole God Bugs are biologically immortal, so they have good medicinal properties for crafting healing items, but apply it to a Zinogre instead? I am probably completely wrong and just heard some fan theory about him.
I did not see that definitively so I didn't wanna pass that off as a fact and defaulted to thunderbugs
Looking back, I realized that the funky Gigginox colour scheme is actually just either a Salamander, Poison Dart Frog or Blue Ring Octopus. It's not hiding, because it has colors that basically tell everything it doesn't need to.
I have a theory about Nef Garmat and Eo Gurudia, and that's that in actuality they're both the SAME monster. By which I mean that they're the same species but more specifically the male and female examples of their species. Similarly to the relationship Teo and Luna have or the raths. Where they have some physical similarities but at the same time look VERY different from eachother to the point they're given different names.
Nef Garmat I like to think is the male, just based on it's overall color scheme. It's got relitively muted colors overall. But the most important factor that leans me towards it being the male is it's behaviour of actively looking for a specific ore in the sand. Which is likely used in display courtship to signify the strength of the Nef Garmat to the potential mate of Eo Garudia. Either based on how shiny the crystal is or how large. Also it being classified as a death dragon probably makes sense if it's a very aggressive monster. That's in heat/musk like an elephant which can be EXTREMELY dangerous, and I could see how a roided up horny elder dragon could cause issues. Hell NORMAL monsters in monsters have that going for them and they're just as feared for that reason. Big examples being Glavanus, Seregios, and Mizutsune. Every single one canonnically is male for a reason and that reason is that they're in heat.
But on the subject of Eo Garudia them being female makes a lot of sense just based on their lore. She's literally called the "life giver" yet nothing about her abilities really signify that at all. She doesn't like magically make plants grow around her or anything. Hell one of her elements fire, which I guess sure you could argue can help create life because if you burn plants it creates carbon which plants love, and does help them grow. But we fight them in a desert?? So where is the title "life giver" coming from exactly UNLESS they mean she "gives life" to the next generation of the Set Garmat and Eo Garudia species.
Capcom wouldn't put so much emphasis on two elders having such a close connection of they either werent related and keep eachother in check somehow. Which at least for that second option we have no lore given example of the two fighting eachother for dominance or anything. They just say they're connected as "life and death".
A video I was waiting for, very cool, but aren't you going to make a video about the monsters in the Stories games ?, because it would be a relatively short video with only 6 new EX variants of old monsters 1 non-EX variation of Arzuros, 3 new Elder Dragons and 1 new monster in the unknown category. My favorites are Oltura, Versa Pietru and Kurenai Goukami
Not yet ready to confirm or deny
that fucking FMA diablos
It's fuckin hilarious man
I honestly think a good way to make flame rathalos more unique is to bring back the poison, and his attacks that already can cause fire to also give blastblight at the same time, maybe some other attacks could as well.
I really want to see what happens when a Rajang eat a Thunder Emperor Kirin horn
The monkepocalypse
I love Morudomunto. I love his hellish, almost undead design. I love his attacks. I love the body horror that is inherent to him in his entirety. I love his theme. It's almost like something out of Bloodborne. Unfortunately, I've never played Explore so I was never able to fight him. He is easily one of if not the most heavy metal monster in all of Monster Hunter. I have hope that he'll be introduced to the mainline series. If Frontier monsters like Espinas can be brought in, why not monsters from Online or Explore?
Yeah man, he’s too cool to abandon
as far as extra wet Nargacuga goes, i think an interesting way to explain its new water spray abilities is likening it to those pistol fish they shoot water at bug to knock them into the water. Maybe it has a focus on aerial prey, and the high pressue blasts knock them out of the sky, or even cut their waings, and narga can finsih them off as they're stunned fromm the landing. I'd imagine in a few million years the aua narga would even lose its tail spines as it becomes more and more specialized into storing water for the high pressure blasts
Its always funny looking back at Explore and Nef-Garmat cuz World really took his whole flow bar for bar and used it to make the lore about bio energy, stream stones, Xeno/Safi (bio energy draining) and Shara (Terra forming) but almost no one noticed cuz Explore was even more niche than Frontier at the time.
Seeing just how much World took from side games and the "portable" team is always interesting seeing as after Worlds release a chunk of the fanbase started looking down on non numbered titles.
Yeah its kinda funny to see the teams that get made outta different facets of Monster Hunter and the little snipes they take at one another when the reality is that Monster Hunter is way more fluid and self-inspiring and not two teams whatsoever lmao
Morudemunto is straight up a dark souls boss
Got that vibe yeah
Morudomunto being just the cooler Nergigante.
Fun fact for ya. Morudomunto is a Gairaigo, specifically a wasei-doitsu.
Morudo is taken from the german word Mord while munto was taken from Mund.
It's literally called Murdermouth.
It's so damn metal! I love it.
I’ve been dreaming of a Kirin that can actually teleport since the 4u intro and had no idea it already existed. Neat! Now that Malzeno exists I fully expect a teleporting unicorn of some sort in Wilds.
Yeah I’d be down to see this move set brought in
omg the uragaan is FABULOUS so sparkly, he has never slayed so hard
It legit looks good on him
Honestly, I'd believe that Eo Garudia is moving the wind it controls TOWARDS the ground so hard that it is causing an earthquake and uprooting the ruins.
Pretty fun that Brachy got a NGE crossover condisering his base form is already inspired by this same exact mech
I used to play this game long long time ago
How was it firsthand?
Another good excuse for Whitewater Plesioth could be that it produces a special slime/mucus to protect itself from harsh sun. The mucus is what produces the bubbles, and the soapy mist that covers Whitewater is the mucus evaporating.
46:01 Is... Is he carrying a _Nergigante_ in this artwork??? Holy _sh*t_ that's so metal.
standing over a dead Nerg and Deviljho
Honestly. Would be real cool to see nef garmat in wilds would fit in the places we see in the trailer of wilds
this game is pure unserious creativity with these variants and i love it to death
we NEED to see watermelon uragaan in wilds dude they cant let this die out 💔💔
I really love the goofy personality of this game
This might be the Copium speaking, but I'm now convinced that Nef Garmat and Eo Garudia are coming to Wilds. The Windswept Planes are said to be frequently savaged by sandstorms, and Nef seems to be the elder dragon that represents the concept of sandstorms in the same way Kushala represents tornadoes and Kirin represents thunderstorms. We're told that the planes (and possibly all Wild's locales) will be defined by having times of great prosperity and abundant resources, and times of intense calamity and harsh weather conditions. Nef brings the calamitous sandstorms that force monsters to fight tooth and nail to hold onto what little resources they can, and then Eo arrives to disrupt the storm and return the locale to a more prosperous state
They’d fit pretty easy man
I really want Eo Garudia to return, and also with that life aspect, too. I want to fight it in some oasis or glade, where life is beginning to return to a sandy, rocky environment. Maybe some rocky pyramid structure. I see rock lined with moss a lot and some flowers, and clear, deep blue, cloudless skies with the bright, shining sun. Have thought of a way it could be a life-bringer too, that its hot jetstreams push around clouds and break the tension that holds them together, causing cloudbursts. Which does also lead into the reason to hunt it, because if it's bursting clouds with fire, then that's going to be scalding hot rain, and probably intense flooding too. Could also tie it in somewhere with the notion of forest fires, those are in some regions essential to the local flora, the regional plants rely on them for fertilisation, or to disperse their pollen, this is also why burning fungal-blighted trees is a terrible idea. Maybe the hot winds also blow around the soil that it burns the plants down into, so it can seed new areas and fertilise them. Nef Garmat already knocked everything down and covered it in sand, the hot winds are here to pick it back up, burn it, then put it back in dome other dirt, watered and fertilised.
Hell yeah man, I’d love to learn more about these two
Capcom probably used Great Apypos as an inspiration for the characters in "Exo-Primal". A large army of small dinosaurs fighting 4-16 hunters, and lead by a single, bigger theropod dinosaur
That’s new years mochi on his head.
I personally think that they should add the new monsters from Explore to the mainline series and rework Thunderbubble Mizutsune into a subspecies. Great Apypos would probably need a visual rework so that he doesn't just look like a slightly modified Great Wroggi.
Most of these could potentially fit
man i love nef garmat so much, i really want him to come to mainline games. Him and baruragaru specifically are my top 2 i want to see before any other
Great top 2!
That would not make sense in anyway in an ecosystem but by Fatalis The Black Crown Dragon goes extremely hard with the wing jaws dayum
I want him in mainline game because that's a Monster. The way it claws at itself is gave me goosebumps, I don't think any animals self-harm like that.
They can add him as easter egg ??? Event quest maybe, no lore, just pure combat solely for enjoying him in a modern engine.
So I have a theory on how Eo Garudia revives desert land. Eo Garudia's crystals might actually be crystalized dragon energy, based of its vivid red color. We know that an over abundance of dragon energy can cause a berserk like state, as seen in Crimson Glow Valstrax. Perhaps, it is attracted to areas that its counterpart Nef Garmat has turned into desert, because they serve as the perfect dumping ground for its dragon energy build up. It crystalizes its dragon energy, before using its powerful winds to essentially drop the crystals off, which give the land the energy it needs to revive itself.
Dragon element after all is a little weird, being the power that fuels Elder Dragons and some monsters and even plant life(Dragonfell Berries). It might be possible that the Dragon element and the Bio Energy in Monster Hunter World might be one in the same, perhaps different forms of the same energy, as by our current laws of physics, energy can only be transformed, neither created nor destroyed. Even Nef Garmat's crystals resemble the bright blue glow of Bio Energy.
A bit of a side bit though, Eo Garudia and Nef Garmat might also be based of Horus and Set. The two are counterparts to each other. Horus is the God that brings fertile land, Set is the one who brings the desert. Horus would even become Ra's successor in Egyptian myth as well.
The purple orb agnaktor eat could be a purple magna orb for future games 😂 he just goes underground, finds one and thats how he gets the purple fire and blast blight
It'd be a retcon but its doable
You know since you mentioned Explosive Peak Duramboros being a variant of a subspecies it is possible Landconquest Lagiacrus could work as a variant of Ivory Lagiacrus... maybe, I don't know man there's so many different types of variations in Monster Hunter outside of the main series. Also I feel like Virulent Gigginox's coloration doesn't feel as bad if you accept it as being aposematic coloration like that of a poison dart frog.
Yeah I saw some people comparing it to a frog, which makes sense, but in the Tundra it looked so fuckin weird to me
The sheer amount of Uragaans sure didn’t disappoint.
Someone at Capcom fuckin LOVES Uragaan
For Fiercewater, I'd ditch the tubes and the whole 'stores water inside it's body' idea. It doesn't need to be faster either, so no water jets.
Instead, it's wing blades and tail spikes have curved, almost cup-like, grooves that catch the water as it moves through streams and shallows. It then flicks it's tail or wings in a whipcrack-like motion to fling out water blades.
My explanation is the idea that a Nargacuga with a warped/damaged tail figured out how to flick water into it's prey's/rival predator's eyes, giving it an advantage over rival Nargacuga come mating season, as they couldn't duplicate the trick as effectively even if they figured it out themselves.
Over time it figured out that it's tail shape helped, and it would then gnaw on it's wing blades, and on it's offsprings' tails and wing blades, to give them the right shape.
Over many generations it's offspring evolved their tails and wing blades to naturally have the right shape, and then further improve on that shape to better catch the water and improve on this trick, until they could make actual water blades instead of merely blinding water splashes.
It's a little anime, I admit, but it's easier to explain than a Nargacuga somehow evolving water tubes and enough internally modified biology to store said water!
As an addition, to compensate for the lack of water jet acceleration, when they tail slam, the grooves in their tail spikes release the cupped water in a blinding splash of mist, so you can't see the second tail slam coming!
Love these types of videos. Do you think you'd ever do one on all the different behemoths in Dauntless or the kemono in Wild Hearts? Would be cool to hear you hype those monsters up the way you do the others lmao
Not impossible but not high on up on the list
14:06 my favorite theme from the asian exclusive games right here. This theme is a straight banger
Elder theme's in this game are NUTS
1:46:39 with lil redesign change (for obvious reasons) and some water attack and this could be a cool looking sea/coastal subspecies of tigrex
The the elders in this game are really cool looking. You can tell movesets are limited due to it being on phone but I really do love their designs
1:12:28 (about) Fierce water Nargacuga could be an amphibious ambush predator. Using his blue color to hide in water and then jump things near the shore. It would explain his longer wind up with faster movement; he winds up under the water and the bolts out of the water to hit something.
If they take this angle, he should loose some of his fur (or at least make it more hydro dynamic) so he looks like he belongs in the shallows.
I have been waiting for this, I wish I could've played this game
Hope it gets fan revived
Nef garmat is kind of like safi kiva when you think about it.
Moro is kind of like deviljho mixed with gore in terms of lore and behavior. Wouldn’t he be based off of Apophis who has the desire to devour all creation?
Heath recover monster, ain’t that kinda like malzeno, but first thing that comes to mind is the Blood Crystal Wyvern from Ark Survival Evolved. TBH those crystal wyverns from Ark would make great monsters in MH and also the Shadowmane. I dare someone to disagree with that.
Also explosive peak seems to fit gravios more to me.
Shining rock Uragaan, the uragaan subspecies idea we need.
“Plesioth with a few cool colored subspecies, then there’s that guy” white water would look better if he had the colors or like a salmon or trout
and now the exotic Monster of series has concluded where will Connor go from here?
The weapons from the outside mainlines?
maybe venture himself into other monster hunter likes and do a video on his monsters like the aragami from god eater or the traumatizing Archfiend from Soul Sacrifice?
the future is unclear and vast.
Im excited for anything youll explore from here
(hahha get it explore.... like monster hunter explore :P )
I get it!
Will you talk about Oltura and the Pietrus?
I remember about hearing about Explore and waiting for it getting a western release. I really wish I could have experienced it, but I think it will probably be truly dead and gone forever. Apparently Abyssal Lagiacrus was in Explore and I wish I could have seen how underwater combat was handled in that game.
I have heard there is a revival effort underway. No idea if it will be fruitful
Purgatory agnaktor has potential to be a cool rare species of the fire leviathan, I hope to see him in the main series 🤗
Potential is definitely there
Like to think Frozen Barioth is purple because it has undergone a unique frost-bite, hence it also causing poison (you’re dying from frostbite necrosis)
I headcanon it as essentially a Frostfang Barioth that primarily hunted Gigginox.
Aight, that makes it sound way cooler
I would love some of these monsters in a main line MH game and/or stories 3
Stories could be another really cool option for some of these guys
@@cr-volcanic I would love it personally and I love stories so for me it’s a win win 🤣
Just imagine doing the Rise wall run on Nef Garmat's pillars while they are being thrown at you
God I would kill to see a Morudomunto model in the new RE engine littered with scars from both other monsters and itself
Fuckin same man
Black Star Beast Volvidon is unfortunately *not* using water element, as cool of an idea it is. Those water pillars are the Insect Glaives skill. The kinsect used by the player also has a blue-watery effect. On the fight footage for Immortal Zinogre you can see another Insect Glaive user using the same skill, this time with earth element, and it creates rock pillars in similar fashion.
I like virulent gigganox because the colors seem to be aposematism like that of poison dart frogs, which makes sense because of its increased poison.
Imagine what level of Rajang can rip the horn off of Gold Kirin and eats it like rock candy
