User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Gogmazios/@comment-1712810-20160610162252

Since this is SUPPOSED to be about APPRECIATING the monster (you know, like says it in the blog title) I'm not going to say a darn thing about the misery this monster put me through during my G-Rank career...

So what the heck do I appreciate about Mr. Sad Face here? Well, his weapons are pretty awesome in design. I think my favorite would be the Switch Axe (no surprise there, being a SA fanboy), which was the first Gog weapon I made. The Hunting Horn is one of the best of its kind in the game though, at least when it comes the buffs it gives, so there's that too.

Design wise, it's very Kaiju-like, which I most certainly appreciate, and some of its attacks are spectacular to behold, like a fireworks show.

But the lore... well, that's um... not exactly what I expected. I have to say, it almost feels like some kind of parody. How exactly is it possible that the Hunter's Guild or Elder Dragon Observation guys did NOT see big ol Sad Face here coming over to borrow a cup of tar and some spears? Also, what does this say about George's mannerisms? Why didn't he just nuke the whole area before or after taking what he wanted from it? Was he too tired? Did he not care? Maybe Gog is bi-polar or something... I don't know. It's interesting... funny... and yes, kind of boring in a way, but nevertheless, I am easily amused.
