Monster Hunter X Game Review - Introducing "Hunter Arts" and "Styles"

Thinking “what’s next?” so the most important thing is to maintain the survival of game series that have existed for a long time – one of which is the Monster Hunter series produced by Capcom which has been around for 11 years in the gaming world. There have been many new and interesting game features that have been developed by the developer to keep the gameplay fresh, although the core of the game remains the same, namely hunting monsters. Included in Monster Hunter X released on the 3DS handheld. What are the new features that gamers can find in this game?

Arts and Styles of Hunting
The first feature is Hunting Arts, a special attack that is different from ordinary attacks because it can produce different effects such as increasing damage, restoring health to providing buffs for your character. For example, Escape Runner allows your hero to use Panic Running without reducing stamina, Karyuudo no Oasis (meaning Hunter’s Oasis) will provide a healing station that can restore nearby Hunters, while Tekkoumi (i.e. Iron Body) will make your hero immune to monster attacks for a period of time. time, but instead we cannot run.

Another interesting thing about Hunter Arts is: each type of weapon has its own arts that you can use when facing monsters. For Great Sword weapons, for example, gamers can use Shishi Yadoshi (Lion’s Maw) to store energy so that the next attack produces massive damage, while Translash for Switch Ax weapons allows players to use Ax Mode and Sword Mode in one combo attack. There are still many other types of Hunter Arts that you can use during the game, so you should try it yourself later.

Meanwhile, Hunting Style is 4 attack styles that can be added to one weapon. They are: Guild Style which has a balance in attack and defense, Aerial Style which allows gamers to attack freely in the air, Striker Style which focuses more on the use of Hunter Arts, and Bushido Style which allows your hero to launch a counterattack with tremendous power after success. avoid monster attacks (but if it fails then the risk is quite dangerous you know).

Only through these two features, plus (as usual) the emergence of a number of new monsters that can be hunted, Monster Hunter X is able to present a monster hunting game that is not only challenging but also fresh!!
