Does Monster Hunter have a chance of ever becoming as popular as something like Elden Ring...

It is already too popular. MH peaked with Freedom Unite, and now they'll never return to that design philosophy. All moves are supposed to be cancellable, fluid and spammable, because normies don't want to actually observe and take actions with actual stakes. Normies don't care about immersion either, and they want gay scoutflies to point out every gathering point and monster locations.

not without le gigantic open world
and dumbing down combat even more

If they really want to see the same kind of numbers, they need the monster intro scenes narrated by the ghost of Steve Irwin.

They could make it fully open world. Normalfags eat that shit up

I got bored of monster hunter after freedom 2 (15 years ago).

Are you retarded?

Hell, even if you use Rise it's only beaten by DaS3 and ER. And From's next highest is slightly above half of 3. I'd say the two series (if you can call From's games that) are pretty close these days.

Hey how come Monster Hunter has a relatively small amount of monsters and needs DLC to get like 3 more but Elden Ring has like 4000 of them.

>more attractive
It’s a fucking cat in armor and standing on two legs. Good shit outing yourself, furfag

yes lets just homogenize EVERY game

Because MH's monster moveset is far more complex since the game is basically a boss rush

>SA unfun and bad damage
Can't speak for the other two because I don't play them but SA is at its most fun in Rise and does great damage given Rapid Morph and easy to maintain sword gauge if not using power phials

>someone could be the monster
I don't mind this as a broad idea, but it's so fucking hard to have balanced games by doing this. Especially when you've got a single enemy against a group. Any game I've played like this tends to be super swingy, where the monster stomps the others or provides zero challenge, depending on their experience with the game. Then once in a blue moon you get a game where everyone is just right, and it's incredibly fun, then after that it's back to the crapshoot.

>Elden Ring sold 13.4 million
>meanwhile, MHW sold 18 million and Iceborne sold 9.20 million
OP is a faggot like always.

>ranged anything
>fun

>>fun and good damage
>hammer
hasn't been true since 3rd gen

Bow is fun though
Bowguns are snoozefests

Give me a Monster Hunter dungeon crawler.

ultimately i think the masses will be filtered by mh, no matter how streamlined it gets, because of its core elements
the game is designed around fighting the same monsters over and over which shapes its priorities during dev and limits its appeal
all normalfags do is take the path of least resistance to endgame gear and then quit, most of them don't even make it that far
there is no replayability for them or hook like exploration, the series would need a big new gimmick like people have said above

Bow is the most fun weapon and I'll tell you why.
>more damage than LS
>the adrenaline of having low defense and high mobility, knowing that if you get hit that's it for you
>glass canon
>knife's edge
>FUN
>the only "ranged" weapon with combos (the effective range is actually pretty close to the melee hunters)
