He's fought and defeated the Icon Of Sin, a Demon so extremely powerful that it can destroy entire universes just by existing in them for long enough. And he's killed 2 of them.
Don't forget, the hunters from monster hunter are just regular people, trained people, but they don't have any sort of super natural changes like The Old Blood or the witcher transformation. They are regular humans, and in High and G/Master rank, they go up against Elder Dragons, Literal forces of nature.
@meta527II I'm just saying this in regard to his message in his community segment in his channel; a reminder that he's got some things to deal with outside of UA-cam. Again, his future Video Game Witches video would be an epilogue for the Monster Month 2.
For Bloodborne, I do want to give a small shoutout to Eileen the Crow, an NPC hunter you come across through the journey. Her presence was always soothing to me for some reason, and you can help her in her own battles against other hunters. She's always a friendly face, if a little aloof, and stern with you, but not cruel. "A Hoonter must Hoont."
Given that this is a list of Monster Hunters in video games, someone from the Belmont family (or the family as a whole) should be expected to appear on this list
What I find amusing is that, despite kicking demon ass 24/7, the Doomslayer does seem to have hobbies based on what you can find in his fortress in Eternal. Likely just something to help make sure the demon killing doesn't get dull.
In regards to why Richter left the monster hunting business. Apparently his short stint as the lord of Dracula’s Castle had cursed his blood making him unable to wield the mighty vampire killer. So he passed it on to the Morris clan as they were distant relatives also capable of using it albeit at the cost of potentially destroying themselves in the process. The return to Julius is because in the events of Portrait of Ruin Johnathan Morris defeats the whip’s memory of Richter removing the curse. So he sets out to return it to its proper owners.
Predictions: Geralt (The Witcher) The Hunter (Bloodborne) Protagonist (Monster Hunter) Rengar (League of Legends) Belmont Clan (Castlevania) Dante (Devil May Cry) Samus (Metroid) Juliet (Lollipop Chainsaw) Zangetsu (Bloodstained) First Hero (Skul: The Hero Slayer) Wander (Shadow of the Colossus)
When I was little, I thought of an OC who I simply called 'the monster hunter' since he couldn't remember his own name. After defeating an evil witch, she cursed him to become a monster hunter for the rest of eternity, completely erasing his past identity and his memories. The only thing he remembers from his past life is this encounter with the witch. As a monster hunter, he possesses superhuman strength, speed, reaction time, combat skill, and is very acrobatic. However, each of these abilities, as well as other ones, largely stem from his primary ability; adaptive resurrection. Each time he's killed by a monster, his soul is transported to a certain realm. Within this realm, a seemingly-infinite number of extra identical bodies exist for his soul to enter and wake up in. When this happens, his body will adapt in some way to the monster that killed him, and then he leaves that realm to go back to his world. As a downside though, each time a monster kills him, his appearance becomes more ugly and monster-like. However, this appearance is just an illusion and isn't his true form. Additionally, he theorises that this resurrection won't occur if he dies in a way other than by the hand of a monster, but doesn't want to test it for obvious reasons.
Honorable Mentions: *The Dragonborn - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim -Be it Draugr, Giants, Daedra, or even Dragons, all fall before the Dovahkiin. *Samus Aran - Metroid Series -Yup, a Sci-Fi hunter. One who hunted the Metroids to extinction. *Rayne - Bloodrayne Series
Minor correction for belmonts...if i remember correctly, because richter got controlled by dracula, belmonts became unworthy of vampire killer(they could not use it), hence the branch family business, tho they had their own problems with the whip
I was actually expecting the Belmonts to be number 1 because of the Van Helsing inspiration you mentioned at the begining, so when they turned outo to be number 6 I was very thrown off, but the monster hunter was undoubtly the correct option (unless you add more rules to knock them down the rank)
53:24 Or when you manage to send yourself flying into the sky before Sonic the Hedgehog-ing down the entire monster's back like you were a buzzsaw with the Dual Blades, my own personal favorite weapons to use in MH Rise!
I'm calling it now: *The Hunter - Monster Hunter Series -Because Duh. *The Hunter - Bloodborne *The Belmont Clan - Castlevania Series -Any one from the most Iconic Monster Hunting Clan is a no-brainer. *Dante - Devil May Cry Series *Geralt of Rivia - The Witcher Series *The Dragonborn - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim *Aloy - Horizon Series
Hilarious, and also makes me wonder if this got GreenScorpion into RWBY. Seriously, we have a sniper-rifle-scythe wielded by Red Riding Hood! Sounds PERFECT for Oscar over here....and maybe RWBY's own Oscar too. 😂 Also, real talk? If GS started making videos on RWBY, I'd expect him to treat the franchise better than it's own fanbase, and I would instantly subscribe if I didn't do that already. :D
45:46 FOR CONTEXT: it is believed that one of the reasons CD Project Red changed Geralt is because Sapkowski has been accused of plagiarizing Micheal Moorecock's Elric of Melnibone, down to stealing the characters nickname of The White Wolf. There was even a threat of a lawsuit just after the first game was released.
I love these videos, and always will. Please do Top 10 Video Games versions of Death. The different ways Death is portrayed vary drastically, and I would love to see your thoughts on the topic.
26:07 kinda incorrect actually. I'm fairly certain that the real reasoning is that the whip became a liability to it's users, rejecting the Belmont's because of Richter's actions in helping nearly revive dracula. Meaning while those are factors, the main cause of the morrison's rise to main character status was because the Belmont's literally couldn't anymore.
Happy Halloween! Monster Hunters are a unique source of beings having them be hired to deal with creatures or sometimes they'll hunt them just for the thrills. I can think of many that will fit the criteria like Gerald, The Belmont's, MH characters, etc so this will be a unique list to see which hunter is the best to decide who to call.
#1: YES! You made my day for giving the entire series the top spot! Speaking of, Best Monster Hunter Moments Sunbreak: Fiorayne's buckler smash into Gaismagorm, Kagero's defending against Amatsu's strike, and Primordial Malzeno flying into the sunset World: Nergigante's entrance when fighting on the back of Zorah Magdaros and the birth of Xenoji'iva Iceborne: Velkhana's first appearance, Rajang eating Kirin's horn, and the appearance of the Guiding Lands Rise: Magnamalo's appearance in the Rampage and the reunion of Ibushi and Narwa Generations Ultimate: Valstrax's appearance Generations: Shagaru Magala's final battle and the appearance of the Fated Four Tri: The fight against Lagiacrus and the duel against the ocean god Ceadeus

One detail that i love, is that the doom slayer's crusade went on for so long that eventually the demons started, and I'm NOT making this up, PRAYING TO GOD FOR FORGIVENESS. Damn i love doomguy.
One person I always think about is Gabriel Belmont and the other Belmont people. Also Dante from Devil May Cry for sure. Literally his job. Like his 9 to 5, is doing this
I wonder if Luigi would be considered for this list. Man doesn’t hunt monsters but he is gaming’s best ghost buster which is a monster. And clearing out 3 games worth of ghosts is notable even if isn’t what he’s know best know for. Probably only 10 if we’re being generous
Honorable mentions for me personally. Baby Bonnie Hood, Darkstalkers: Want to know what happens if red riding hood started packing uzis, knives and several explosives? Let's find out. Becky, #Blud: She's basically an animated Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Shouldn't be hard to know her preference for monster hunting.
37:25 Shame that this list is exclusively video games, cause I would've **loved** at least a mention of Ruby Rose from RWBY, mostly so we'd have a segment that would put in more research and love than half of the fanbase claims to do (shoutout to ThatKaitoDan, Xel Writer, and some others for **actually** doing exactly this). Which is possible considering the number of RWBY gags in past videos, and something that I would instantly subscribed for if I didn't do that already. 😁
32:09 I knew he was a bad ass but the more I hear lore about him the funnier it gets Doom Slayer jumps into hell head first, locks it behind so nothing can escape and goes on rampage, and the DEMONS, yes freaking Demons try to send him back to earth just to get rid of him or imprison him in a hell coffin hoping nobody ever opens it
Kinda figured the Monster Hunter would be at 1 but my question is which one? Like they're all good but who do you pick as the best? The hunter of Kokoto for being the first to slay Rathalos and Fatalis? The hunter of the Caravan for taking down insane creatures like Gogmazios and Dalamadur? The hunter of the fifth fleet for saving the new world? touch choice.
Whyll is interesting ge just has a lot of cut content also it interesting that Duke ravengaurd Longsword is a really good pick for whyll as it give a +2 to charisma whitch is the warlock main state which has make who'll a great SAD (single ability score dependent) kinda interesting when you think his father and him arnt that different
Monster Hunter being number 1 brings me so much joy, makes up for the gross misinterpretation of Horizon's lore. On the topic of Monster Hunter, hunters who seek to PRESERVE nature instead of poaching are easily my favorite interpretation of archetype. So, now I'm considering getting BOTH Octopath games.
3 things 1) Where will Luigi be? 2) Which Castlevania rep? My vote would be Julius IF WE GOT HIS GAME! So maybe Alucard since he's done it for generations. 3) Will you fix you biggest mistake? Still salty about vampires. If not that, maybe Shiki instead. Editor's note: well, there's one of them. Or technically 7, I guess.
If Konami ever becomes good, we need the Castlevania game about the final battle from 1999. I even have the perfect name for it, Prelude of Sorrow. It's a prequel to the Soma Cruz games, and a prelude is a musical term, which goes well with several previous Castlevania games.
Capcom now takes the top spot in Scorpion's Monster Month II 3 out of 4 times! I don't know who's going to top the last countdown of video game witches. But funny how this coincidence has seemed to have happened.
Monster Hunters who become as dangerous as the monsters themselves are the best. My Honourable Mentions: Arthas Menethil The Lich King. The Dragonborn. Vincent Valentine.
I know this is a stretch, but World of Mayhem does have a group known as the Unlikely Heroes.. who specialize in dealing with Monster toons! Tho I doubt they’ll be on a list like this..
28:26 He was called by many names but one thing is clearly certain; for the the demons out there in hell fleay while you're still breathin' & never show your face to Earth ever again. Cuz he's coming for you all & your demonic god. You know him, you fear him, but it won't matter how far you run cuz nothing escapes from the Doom Slayer.
Hey Oscar have you ever played a game series named god eater? It’s basically like monster hunter but anime and more linear with weapons that transforms into a gun and a shield(yes even a scythe)
I think he hinted that would be next at the end of the video. If that's the case and it's counted as a part of monster month, then I guess it's like weapons month in that it lasts more than a month.
This gonna sound so weird, but IMO monster hunter isn't a monster hunter. They're a normal hunter in a world with really big dangerous animals. To me the monster hunter as a character has to be hunting something far beyond just a dangerous animal from the setting. Same knocks out pokemon trainer for me (though i did think that was neat as a thought experiment), Aloy because the robots while weird are again essentially big animals, and Samus for the same reason you knocked them out of just fighting anything for the bounty. Maybe its more my reading of Monster Hunter when I played it, but the wyverns generally feel like alien megafauna instead of magical beings in most cases to me. This theoretically could knock out someone like Geralt (who is my number 1), but the monsters that make him the monster hunter are the vampires and ghosts and cursed occult beings, not the griffons those are just the side jobs because there is overlap.
I was waiting for Ragnavldr (aka the Outlander) from F&H to make an appearence or even FL4K from BL3, but to be honest both of them kind of fail as monster hunters, Rag is *only* a monster hunter in his S ending and FL4K hunts pretty much anything, not only monsters
Fun fact about the witcher author he's actually bitter and angry at CD Red as he thought he got all he was going to get from his creation and had no chance of being more popular so he sold the rights to CD Red for a moderate amount of money now that their game series has blown up and become way more popular than the books while also have increased book sales because people want to know the backstory for the games he doesnt make a penny since he sold the rights and has been sueing CD Red for royalties for years now. And my reaction to that is my guy if you had a bit more faith in your creation and had a bit more respect for CD Red's reimagineing for your character you might have gotten the pay day you wanted instead of being left out in the cold. You abandoned Geralt he has nobody to blame but himself for not makeing a royalties contract
Honestly I think Aloy gets a bad wrap though her writing doesn't help much, like basically from the moment she was capable of speaking she was talking shit about her people's religion but like why she knew literally no other life, maybe if AFTER she became a Nora and then an Outrider and got to see the other cultures she could introspect on why it was bogus but she's like that out the gate and Mary Sues just love badmouthing and overthrowing the establishment but other then that she spent her life training to be a hunter and her skills came through blood sweat and tears as apposed to like Chi or genetic augmentation she's only a sue cause the earlygame writing wants you to think she is for some reason..
Castlevania really has lost all relevance. And Richter lost the ability to use Vampire killer due to Shaft 's brainwashing. Which cursed the entire bloodline with dying if the use the whip. The Morris are a branch family who need the Lecardes family and the Alucard spear, which was reforged from the sword he used in SoTN and a ritual to ensure the whip does not kill the dude. Eclessia came about when the Count of Caligostro who is a time traveler and a prophet. Told Alucard of the war of 1999. A war so epic that Capcom flat out stated that videogames as a medium cannot handle Julius swag. And thus the Morris and Ecclessia were made to aid in the prophecy. There was also Portrait of ruin which takes place in WWII. But Dracula for once wasn't responsible for it. Instead getting by some dumbass vampire painter who got lucky and killed Eric Lecarde and brainwashed his daughters.
I like your list, but don’t mention wokeness ruining game in that tone, nobody would argue with your case of Aloy being a monster hunter. She hunt down those machine that can easily kill her. So she fights as a hunter. That part of your video is unnecessary. You do have a small audience, so you don’t want alienate your audience. And please don’t respond like a leftist and call me every name in the book. I am being fair with you. I want your channel to succeed. Just focus on your top 10 list, with your passion. You can put woke made character in your list, if you can build your case good enough. But don’t mention anything political.
Doom Slayer actually has hobbies outside demon hunting. Look around his base in Doom Eternal. He's a bibliophile, a musician, a blacksmith, a _gamer._
A Toy collector too
Scorpion: I'm never gonna get 4 countdowns in a month.
Well, congratulations, ya did.
Keep in mind that Doomguy was so dangerous that the demons sealed HIM away
You know you are the best if demon from hell fear you
*DOOMSLAYER
He's fought and defeated the Icon Of Sin, a Demon so extremely powerful that it can destroy entire universes just by existing in them for long enough.
And he's killed 2 of them.
Don't forget, the hunters from monster hunter are just regular people, trained people, but they don't have any sort of super natural changes like The Old Blood or the witcher transformation. They are regular humans, and in High and G/Master rank, they go up against Elder Dragons, Literal forces of nature.
Oh, I thought they could ONLY be monster hunter characters. Well, that gives me more reason to watch this.
Green Scorpion's health is top priority. And hey, think of his future Top 10 Video Game Witches as a Monster Month 2 Epilogue.
@@peternguyen7530 When did I ever say I don't care about his health?
@meta527II I'm just saying this in regard to his message in his community segment in his channel; a reminder that he's got some things to deal with outside of UA-cam. Again, his future Video Game Witches video would be an epilogue for the Monster Month 2.

I think it's hobbies he picked up as the infinite hordes of hell started to become not so infinite. He started to find himself with free time

Predictions:
Geralt (The Witcher)
The Hunter (Bloodborne)
Protagonist (Monster Hunter)
Rengar (League of Legends)
Belmont Clan (Castlevania)
Dante (Devil May Cry)
Samus (Metroid)
Juliet (Lollipop Chainsaw)
Zangetsu (Bloodstained)
First Hero (Skul: The Hero Slayer)
Wander (Shadow of the Colossus)
Juliet is more of a zombie slayer. Wander only hunted the colossals, so his hunting numbers are very low.

If you think about it, geoncide Frisk is technically a monster hunter. Sure it is absolutely unjustified, but they do technically count
I was actually expecting the Belmonts to be number 1 because of the Van Helsing inspiration you mentioned at the begining, so when they turned outo to be number 6 I was very thrown off, but the monster hunter was undoubtly the correct option (unless you add more rules to knock them down the rank)
53:24 Or when you manage to send yourself flying into the sky before Sonic the Hedgehog-ing down the entire monster's back like you were a buzzsaw with the Dual Blades, my own personal favorite weapons to use in MH Rise!
53:22
Slamming the Hammer in the skull of a charging Tigrex. Now that's gotta hurt.
I've once did that with an Anjanath and got that feel good!
Happy Halloween Green Scorpion!
A welcome choice, but an odd pick. Instead of monsters, humans who make a living by hunting them down.
I'm calling it now:
*The Hunter - Monster Hunter Series
-Because Duh.
*The Hunter - Bloodborne
*The Belmont Clan - Castlevania Series
-Any one from the most Iconic Monster Hunting Clan is a no-brainer.
*Dante - Devil May Cry Series
*Geralt of Rivia - The Witcher Series
*The Dragonborn - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
*Aloy - Horizon Series
Arthur from ghosts and goblins
Not sure if Aloy would be a strong contender since hunting monster machines is not entirely the main point of her games.
Wow, all but one of my predictions made the list!
37:24 Oh my god, that’s the coolest one!
Hilarious, and also makes me wonder if this got GreenScorpion into RWBY. Seriously, we have a sniper-rifle-scythe wielded by Red Riding Hood! Sounds PERFECT for Oscar over here....and maybe RWBY's own Oscar too. 😂

Generations Ultimate: Valstrax's appearance
Generations: Shagaru Magala's final battle and the appearance of the Fated Four
Tri: The fight against Lagiacrus and the duel against the ocean god Ceadeus
One honourable mention I can think of is Kevin and Lisa from Ghoul Panic.
Yes, they mostly hunted ghosts, but they also battled a FAMILY of monsters.
Hell the belmonts even defeated death and not the figuratively or metaphorically speaking no death straight up
Happy Halloween, Green Scorpion.
The hunter from monster hunter is the ultimate hunter!!
Just for a heads up. If there's such a thing as Freezing Month in December, then maybe the Top 10 Video Game Christmas Levels idea might be 50% chance

Also Dante from Devil May Cry for sure. Literally his job. Like his 9 to 5, is doing this

Still think it would have been more thematic to end monster month with this one but hey I'm not complaining about so much countdown goodness
Surprised by Wyll getting some love lol.
I think the reason why the Belmonts couldn’t use the whip after Richter until Julius was because of the possession that Richter went through
Slight correction Caedeus is the one causing earthquakes and tsunamis not lagiacrus

I think he hinted that would be next at the end of the video. If that's the case and it's counted as a part of monster month, then I guess it's like weapons month in that it lasts more than a month.
This gonna sound so weird, but IMO monster hunter isn't a monster hunter. They're a normal hunter in a world with really big dangerous animals. To me the monster hunter as a character has to be hunting something far beyond just a dangerous animal from the setting. Same knocks out pokemon trainer for me (though i did think that was neat as a thought experiment), Aloy because the robots while weird are again essentially big animals, and Samus for the same reason you knocked them out of just fighting anything for the bounty. Maybe its more my reading of Monster Hunter when I played it, but the wyverns generally feel like alien megafauna instead of magical beings in most cases to me.
This theoretically could knock out someone like Geralt (who is my number 1), but the monsters that make him the monster hunter are the vampires and ghosts and cursed occult beings, not the griffons those are just the side jobs because there is overlap.
now this is what i'm talking about:)
24:38...I'm sorry, "Ma-tea-is"??
Witches!!!!! I cant wait!!!😊
I was waiting for Ragnavldr (aka the Outlander) from F&H to make an appearence or even FL4K from BL3, but to be honest both of them kind of fail as monster hunters, Rag is *only* a monster hunter in his S ending and FL4K hunts pretty much anything, not only monsters
Why were the two pumpkins so close?
They had deep roots
Fun fact about the witcher author he's actually bitter and angry at CD Red as he thought he got all he was going to get from his creation and had no chance of being more popular so he sold the rights to CD Red for a moderate amount of money now that their game series has blown up and become way more popular than the books while also have increased book sales because people want to know the backstory for the games he doesnt make a penny since he sold the rights and has been sueing CD Red for royalties for years now.
And my reaction to that is my guy if you had a bit more faith in your creation and had a bit more respect for CD Red's reimagineing for your character you might have gotten the pay day you wanted instead of being left out in the cold. You abandoned Geralt he has nobody to blame but himself for not makeing a royalties contract
As somebody who knows the lore of horizon well, it is almost disturbing how badly you recap it.
You skipped a week.
No way the Belmonts don’t make #1
EDIT:😩
Honestly I think Aloy gets a bad wrap though her writing doesn't help much, like basically from the moment she was capable of speaking she was talking shit about her people's religion but like why she knew literally no other life, maybe if AFTER she became a Nora and then an Outrider and got to see the other cultures she could introspect on why it was bogus but she's like that out the gate and Mary Sues just love badmouthing and overthrowing the establishment but other then that she spent her life training to be a hunter and her skills came through blood sweat and tears as apposed to like Chi or genetic augmentation she's only a sue cause the earlygame writing wants you to think she is for some reason..
Doom is testosterone the video game
No B.B. Hood or Donovan from Darkstalkers? Not even as honorable mentions? Really?
monster hunter just like heart wild.
Ochette is cute.
Castlevania really has lost all relevance. And Richter lost the ability to use Vampire killer due to Shaft 's brainwashing. Which cursed the entire bloodline with dying if the use the whip. The Morris are a branch family who need the Lecardes family and the Alucard spear, which was reforged from the sword he used in SoTN and a ritual to ensure the whip does not kill the dude. Eclessia came about when the Count of Caligostro who is a time traveler and a prophet. Told Alucard of the war of 1999. A war so epic that Capcom flat out stated that videogames as a medium cannot handle Julius swag. And thus the Morris and Ecclessia were made to aid in the prophecy. There was also Portrait of ruin which takes place in WWII. But Dracula for once wasn't responsible for it. Instead getting by some dumbass vampire painter who got lucky and killed Eric Lecarde and brainwashed his daughters.
I like your list, but don’t mention wokeness ruining game in that tone, nobody would argue with your case of Aloy being a monster hunter. She hunt down those machine that can easily kill her. So she fights as a hunter. That part of your video is unnecessary. You do have a small audience, so you don’t want alienate your audience.
And please don’t respond like a leftist and call me every name in the book. I am being fair with you. I want your channel to succeed. Just focus on your top 10 list, with your passion. You can put woke made character in your list, if you can build your case good enough. But don’t mention anything political.
That "woke" nonsense, even in a joke, annoys me too...
I think it's obvious what Number 1 is...
