@Shrek: let me play devil's advocate again, they're not HC Monsters. No, Kogath saying they are does not mean they are. :) Not saying that me saying they are not necessarily means they are not but until capcom says they are, they are not. :) The term "specific individual" may have been mentioned but the word "hardcore" or "HC" never was.

Also, the developers hold all freedom to give and take from the Frontier and Main Series as they please. Complaining about it holds no legitimacy really. Not to mention the fact that whining about not being able to enjoy said content is really your own choice as the options are there for everyone.
