@ Elusive: Who said I was directing that bit of cheap smarm at you? I know what you said, and you do make some good points. I was referring to people who refuse to look past the similarities, whether they be subtle or obvious, and instead treat the monster like it does nothing new. After all, didn't people do the same with Frontier monsters?

In conclusion, what I'm saying is that claiming that two monsters are the exact same because of one or two traits and refusing to accept their differences is dumb. I'm not denying that Glavenus's concept is unoriginal, but he does set himself apart from Abiorugu with his moveset, no matter how subtle or obvious it may be, just like how Abiorugu set itself apart from Deviljho in its own way. After all, there's a difference between borrowing characteristics from another monster and being an exact copy of said monster. If people are going to shit on one monster because of one or two similaities to another, no matter how minor they are, they may as well shit on all of them.
