In terms of an overall product, this is what games should aspire to be. The graphics are serviceable, providing just enough fidelity to be appealing but not overdone to the point of being visually noisy and distracting. The gameplay is challenging and provides room for player expression. There's ample content and there's nothing in the game that slaps you across the face with an obvious political agenda. If the industry was truly smart they'd stop trying to "legitimize games as an art form" or mindlessly pursue graphically fidelity and should be going in this direction.

Have to agree, XX doing reasonably well is the only reason why I think there's still a shred of hope for monhun, really the only downside is that it's switch exclusive. If it was released for PC right alongside world, the latter would have looked as shameful as it should have.

Please don't actually buy GU ever, if you're a buyfag, import XX instead, otherwise pirate it (if piracy on switch is possible yet; if it isn't, wait for piracy to be possible).

Yeah. It was available on the 3DS long before XX had a switch port, ages before GU was even announced. It released something like a week or two after XX had its original release, iirc. The main problem, from what I've heard, is that there's no way to make fan made patches for the switch version yet, since switch homebrew and CFW was not even close to the point the 3DS's was at when XX released and probably won't be for a long time. Though I don't own a switch and haven't paid much attention to its homebrew/cfw/hacking scenes so I don't know if fan made patches are possible yet.

I forgot to mention this, but I feel it's important to point out that the fan translation isn't very good. It's better than the official one, that's for sure, but that really isn't saying much since the official one went out of its way to change shit just for the sake of changing it. The fan translators are faggots who forced in a few Jojo classic American rock music references for a few quest names (2 or 3 total iirc) instead of accurately translating them, and very loosely translated the deviant names. Their translations tried to stay more similar to the original Japanese names than the official localization overall, but they're still not very accurate translations. For example, "Heavenly Eye" is "Divinesight" in the fan translation and "Soulseer" in the official localization; "Armor Shredder" is "Shredclaw" in the fan translation and "Rustrazor" in the official localization. Weirdly, the worst of all the fan translations is almost identical to the official localization, "Massacre Demon" becoming "Bloodlust" in the fan translation, and "Bloodbath" in the official localization. Neither one is even remotely close to the original, so it seems very odd to me that the official one would end up so similar to the fan one. The fan translators said that they loosely translated them to match the style of the garbage (((localizations))) Generations used, so it's partially the official Generations localization's fault, but they're still fags for deciding to use Generations official localization as a base instead of trying to fix the mess the official localization team made with that one. But I guess that was beyond the scope of what they wanted to do, and if they started retconning those garbage localizations, they'd probably need to go back and retcon all of the shitty localizations that have always plagued this series, and that was way beyond the scope of a simple translation patch for XX's new content.

Elaborate, got me curious. Some of the changes are dumb, like Gunlance getting love mechanically but having to work hard just to make par with old motion values, or Aerial existing for every weapon not named Insect Glaive, but when you look at the base weapons and don’t try to abuse the shit out of the dumber hunter arts like Absolute Evasion/Readiness, I feel like there aren’t many big crimes. Charge Blade having super armor on guard points instead of a counter-state wasn’t really unwelcome, and I still enjoyed it even if it wasn’t the same weapon as it was in 4u.
I’m not going to say it’s a balanced game, because that would be ridiculous and indefensible, but it’s broken in entertaining ways rather than the absolute slog World ended up being. Styles can be broken to either side of the scale, but they’re opt-in and Guild is mostly unchanged. Playing what I found fun rather than what is simply strong gave me a lot of mileage, which is the entire reason monhun is fun to begin with. I got the impression it’s one of the hardest games if you neglect to use Adept/Brave and the assortment of ridiculously strong arts, one of the easiest if you do, one of the blandest if you do nothing but spam Aerial GS/SA the entire game and one of the most fun if you try to get everything the game has to offer. XX’s iteration of SnS is honestly the best time I’ve had with the weapon and World SnS felt like dogshit afterwards; arguably overloaded, but still a blast. Gunlance still weak, but Blast Dash exists. Adept and Brave are op as sin on most weapons and casualizes the game to an extent rivaling World, but it helps teach you enemy patterns instead of mantles and moving while healing in World making it almost impossible to lose with any amount of brain cells greater than 3. The mechanisms by which it simplifies the game still allows for a high skill ceiling.
I also like the deviant fights a lot more than World’s endgame, not just because you have more options but because they have actually interesting attack patterns instead of being perpetual aoe machines. Luna/Behe aren’t difficult once understood, but they are BORING and that’s one of the worst things a game can be, but enough contrasting with World because we both know it sucks. There’s bad design I’m GU/XX, but you can maneuver around it, and the good design hiding behind it is well worth the gymnastics. 4u is unmistakably the more polished game, but I had higher highs with GU. I thankfully didn’t start the game with XX or I wouldn’t have known how to circumvent the accompanying ‘lows’.

After Dark Soul's success, you'd think they'd try to keep the game hard, since it doesn't impact sales.
That said, MHW has some of my favourite monsters ever, namely, Nergigante, Kulve Taroth and ArchTempered Deviljho (the event one).
The new and improved World Eater quest is a force to be reckoned with, expecially if you try and fight him before you're able to take down tempered elder dragons, like me. Never have I ever fought a harder Deviljho than that.
They did some very stupid mistakes, like making armor transphig limited to events and preorders, instead of making it crafting based and adding the event armors as a bonus look you can't normally achieve. Another thing, every weapon looks bland with very few exceptions pic related, the Val Hazaak hammer is just a fucking axe with no handle.

For all of it's questionable design choices, you can't just pretend it's bad. It's still a real Monster Hunter game at it's core. It expects you to actually play the game well and isn't World where the only fights that are remotely difficult are the ones that were meme'd up to be difficult by fans of the original games. Black Diablos being the biggest example but Black Diablos in World was only hard because of inflated damage and health numbers. Artificial difficulty at it's most prominent.

There's a certain therapeutic quality to gathering materials between long strings of hunts that it seems like only I enjoy. I find it comfy and it's own strange little reward to do something mundane after something great. It's like in fantasy stories when the warrior returns home and just gets to enjoy life a little bit before the next adventure comes knocking on his door.

I think gathering missions are also a veiled introduction to the map for this reason. Praying the game gives you the 10 choice mushrooms or whatever it is that you need is pretty mundane, but looking around for them gets you acquainted with the zones and what to expect during a fight.

I dunno, I like the themes for the Rotten Vale, Vaal, Nergi, and Kulve. Rotten Vale as a whole is pretty good. It doesn’t escape from the bad level design and hideous overuse of vfx and washed out colors, but it does have a uniquely good aesthetic. I like the reef/trench growth/decay dichotomy going on. Too bad even with PC modding, there’s no way to turn off all the bullshit like bloom and nothing will ever fix the horrible blandness pervading the artstyle of the game at large.
I also strongly agree with drop in multiplayer being a poison. Camaraderie is dead in favor of instant gratification and even less commitment to successive hunts. There’s no reason to. Hell, there’s incentive not to, since the majority of facilities require you to be in town, which removes you from your SOS party. The most cooperation I’ve ever had with anybody came from going for A’s in the arena quests, which are few and without meaningful reward. Even the longsword you get with arena coins is eclipsed by kulve drops now.
God I hate what they did with Kulve. Beautiful monster and level, one of the only giant monster fights I’ve enjoyed in the entire series, and there’s garbage mmo raid mechanics and gacha rewards.

Weirdly similar to EO1's stratum's though, almost in the same order too (minus shinjuku of course)
>Too bad even with PC modding, there’s no way to turn off all the bullshit like bloom
Well actually you can fix the bloom and add color correction to the game, along with killing the bugs and using a third-party simple HUD simulator that let's you get rid of the majority of the obnoxious future/fantasy glowy interfaces taking up 60% of the screen. One of the few things that were actually fixed with PC modding, the only other thing being changing the base skin textures for NPCs and players to make them somewhat ugly instead of viscerally disgusting.

Okay this is one complaint I don't understand about XX, they did try some cancerous shit with the (((Daily))) bonus thing, but it was miniscule enough that you could ignore it relatively easily and in the end it was just a minor materials bonus to mid range monsters. There's no in-game economy because there's no in-game exchanges of any sort, unless you count BRs begging for honey and pots which has existed since gen 1.
>you don’t even have to grind deviants unless you care for a fully cleared quest list
Not entiely fair because G rank versions of returning deviants had many new additions to how they fought so in order to see that particular content you would have to clear at least 10 different hunts of each deviant, not such a problem if you have a character with those quests already maxed but still kind of an oversight needig to fight a monster 10-20 times just to be able to fight it's proper form once. Pretty reminiscent of frontier bullshit, unsurprisingly.

I'm not reading that but the thing I loved about MH was hunting the monsters who would have thought? and when it comes to hunting monsters I prefer to have weapons with consise movesets that ive grown accustomed to throughout the years. XX/GU completely cucked the lance and gunlance, even on guild style for no fucking reason what so ever to the point where my only viable weapons throughout the entire game were the SnS and SA. The attack stats in those games make no sense what so ever, there was no point to changing those and it seems like they only did it because they wanted to be "different" and not improve anything in any way. The new monsters in those games are cool as fuck but they arent fun to fight when im using the equivalent to a long unusable peice of shit as a weapon to hunt with.
MHW did much better when it comes to the weapons by not just keeping their usual movesets but adding a good bunch of more moves, movesets and even certain extra dodges for some of the weapons, which gave them all much more depth and versatility. That along with the streamlining and some new mechaics and how the monsters felt more lifelike made world a pretty damn fun MH game to play, it lacks too much content though. 3U and 4U may probably forever be my favorites.

You forgot one thing:
Fun.
Video games are supposed to be one thing and one thing only - fun. Anything else is either needless fluff or debatable.
Is Monhun fun? That is the sole question here. If you find it fun, then you can say that, yes, all other video games should be like it. I didn't like it, so no, I don't think other video games should be like it.

I can only agree that the expeditions and the apex forms were garbage but aside from that the game had one of the best progressions I've found in a MH game.
The transition between low rank to high rank, and the one to g rank are seamlessly, no boss in particular feels like it's just there to bloat, and the new introductions are all incredibly polished and fun to fight.
There's no difficulty spike aside from event battles which are opt-in and you're supposed to prepare for anyway.

Good choice and you really cannot go wrong with that price. It has a very solid tutorial giving you all the basics in a clear concise manner and the psuedo-story mode/actually a tutorial itself for when the game gets serious is I think a great feature especially for newcomers.
Don't get discouraged anon and don't be afraid to try weapon types you never usually use in other games, my personal experience was I started with Long Sword and Dual Blades usually but one day I tried the Hammer for a laugh and to this day it's my style of choice and for me cannot be topped in raw enjoyability. Of course I use a wide variety of weapons still (except Gunlance/Lance and Hunting Horn which I just cannot get the hang of) but every hunter has their own story like this for different weapons.
Other than that my biggest word of advice is the first 100 hours at least should be treated as tutorial/training really, it's a magical series once it clicks but it demands a lot of patience at first, but if you can break through all that you'll be rewarded with a very unique feeling of fun you just don't get from many vidya today if at all.

Learn to read, you dumb nigger. I said I don't own a switch, and that I played the XX patch on 3DS. I have no intention of ever owning a switch, since the few games it has that aren't garbage are available on other platforms I own or emulatable, so why would I care whether or not piracy is available on it? It would be like caring about whether or not piracy is available on an xbone or ps4, they're all consoles I'd never buy regardless of how easy piracy may be on them, so I don't know or give a shit whether or not it's possible.

Monhun can be very retarded about what's considered a "dragon" though. You do get traditional dragons, but you also get stuff like a unicorn, a cuttlefish, or a snake classed as "dragons". Or the two quadrupedal wingless "flying wyverns" that are incapable of flight, and only considered "flying wyverns" because they used Tigrex's skeleton as the base for their model and animations.

IG had ridiculously strong motion values in 4, but CB isn’t that far behind and is far easier to do decently with. I saw a lot more consistency from CBs in pubs than I did from IGs, and for good damn reason, given how much safer and simpler CB can be despite having a richer moveset, whereas IG taught people a lot of bad habits. Je suis baguette all the way to Quest Failed stung a lot more than someone spamming AED counters for better and worse.
Once in a while you’d get somebody that only vaulted when it meant they could get out of the way of something and attack at the same time, practically soloing the fight for everybody, but at least they were still playing the game.

I also thought IG was far easier to use than CB. It has much faster movement, especially with white buff, and has easy mounts.

Inverse is true as well; good players will rarely cart no matter what weapon they use.

Tri had the least amount of monsters out of all the games, which is where most of you fags started playing because you were only 8.
Monster Hunter dos had the most up until a few years ago.
MHW has more monsters then 50% of the games.

It's also what World should have been, being a sort of "Greatest hits" of monsters or the years instead of a few iconic ones tacked onto a game that's almost entirely different than the rest of the series. People that start off in world myself included, technically would be pretty caught off guard by things that are considered the norm in most monster hunter games like making sure you're preped before a hunt since you can't change weapons or armor midway, or the multiplayer hub not just being there and actually used for something, or not being able to just summon three phantoms to fight for you.

I've played since MH, the things you claim are "game changing" really aren't.
If you wanted to change armor or weapons you just retired the game and lost nothing but had to go through several loading screens.
For multiplayer you had to join an entire another village at the loading screen.
You still have to prepare but you don't have to load up half your inventory with items for farming, then use them to make space THEN go hunt your target reducing your inventory and having you waste time.
But no that doesn't matter despite it being true.

Except they are for reasons I shouldn't have to repeat at t his point. It'd be four loading screens at most and they're much shorter by comparison. You don't have to prepare anywhere near as much because if you forget something including something as basic as eating before you go, you can just fast-travel back to camp and do it. Same with restocking on items you'd usually have a limit to. In fact here's someone soloing behemoth with just items.
World, as a monster hunter game, fails by making itself a lot easier than most of its predecessors. It also fails as an introduction point by not properly showing players that were interested in the series what to expect of the bulk of the games in the series. Even Frontier managed to get it right more than world.
I'm not saying you can't enjoy world, I'm just saying that it fails at what it was apparently set out to do. Now if you don't mind I'm going to charge by vita and give FU another go while I wait for the paid DLC for an area we should have already gotten in the base game.

You might also want to bring up that changing gear mid-hunt has massive implications for elem-based weapons in multi-monster/marathon hunts and somewhat meaningful implications for status weapons (e.g. proc poison once or twice then swap to pure raw to get around threshold increases) and weapon-monster compatability (e.g. hammer against anything with a <20 head hitzone or sns against literally ay tall monster). Not that it actually matters in practice but it's a more definitive argument than 'muh loading screens'.

You're really arguing loading screens are punishment and not an engine limitation?
>Loading your inventory up with "just in case" forces you to juggle your inventory and discourages you from being a faggot and carving mid-battle and being stuck with "inventory full, trade out for new shit?".
If you have carves that means the tail has been cut which means the monster is already wounded, at that point you don't have time to mine or bugnet, so you just ditch a pick axe or bugnet and carve the tail.
If you're talking about Monster then you ditch anything you don't need and get your carves.

My friend, one I've been trying to get to play 4U but have resigned to play world with, literally has a mushroomancer setup so he can buff himself up at the start of a match before swapping to his actual weapon setup.

You don't even have to worry about resources in multi monster hunts, since you can just go back and resupply at camp, and that barely counts against the time limit since it's usually faster to fast travel to a camp instead of trying to run to the second monster. And since you have infinite dung pods, the developers decided to make the Elder's Recess a nightmare zone of shit constantly invading your hunts. Every non-Elder Dragon hunt on that map WILL get invaded by Azure Rath just fucking flying around all the zones constantly.

A lot of the "Shit worlds gotten wrong" is completely exaggerated, which makes the actual criticism become drowned out.
There are problems with World but not having to go through 2-3 loading screens isn't one of them.
>if controls are an issue the switch port of generations is basically a godsend. And they can't have been too much of an issue considering the amount of time spent on handhelds.
The godsend is being able to emulate the games so you can play them the way god intended, with a controller.
Also you can play Dos with an emulator and use the fan patch.

It's hardly watered down which is my point, it skips loading screens in several ways but the only issue I have is the item refilling.
I don't have a issue with the guideflys because World allows more then 5 plants to be placed in an area, and in the other games it was incredibly apparent what you could harvest as there were so few assets in an area.

I hope you've just forgotten that they also work as quest markers that will lead you right to a monster. Not even subtly.
I'll admit "watered down" isn't the right phrase, but the game is admittedly easier when monsters have much more telegraphed moves, the damage numbers show you directly what areas are effective to hit, there's potionbugs floating around most areas, free traps and monster invasions usually give free damage and a shiny drop. Some monsters like the titzi will drop flashes in monster's faces, and the grimalkines and gajlaka will help in fights (though the latter will also attack you), and a lot of other things that can't even be swept under the rug as "quality of life" and are just making the game less difficult.
There's microtransactions but it's been covered. Gestures, stickers, and the character redo tickets. And the upcoming paid DLC that adds a mandatory area.
And now that I'm thinking of it, there's also the issue with the absolute lack of weapon variety. With the exception of some flagship monster weapons, most are [Bone/Ore weapon base model]+[Monster-relevant flair attached to it]. Sure some eventually become the real version of the Rathalos GS but others, namely some made from new monsters like the pukei pukei, dont' even get a unique model even in their final upgrade. For a game that went out of its way to increase graphical quality it cold have at least made the weapons fun to look at.

Armor skills, decorations, and charms, anon. In fact, I'd say that any MonHun (Yes, even World, fuck off) Has one of the best RPG/Action melding with the way skills work. Low level skills are still significant in their own way (Critical Eye, for example, or the armor skill that makes most items an AOE) and the game lets you make builds you can swap between with ease for specific tasks. For example, if I know I'm going to need to transport a heavy egg for the mission, there's a skill for that that makes it much easier. Even better, most of the armor skills are weapon-agnostic (though some work better with some weapons, gun-based skills notwithstanding) so if you're attatched to a specific weapon then you're free to build around it without much restriction.
Once you hit high-rank in any game, you'll get Alpha and Beta sets. Alpha armors have armor skills specific to that armor, Beta sets have decoration slots that let you work in different skills.
A lot of Monhun gameplay is you saying "I WANT THAT" and the game saying, "Okay, here's how you get it." and then you doing that, and getting progressively better at it while fighting cool monsters. Sure, it's never been a 'traditional' RPG, but it's better, in my opinion, since you can't just outlevel your way to being powerful. You build your power with your own hands and wear it like a fucking trophy.

Higher rank quests give you armors with more skill points so a higher HR = more skill points. Not to mention your level also determines what quests you can take. Not in the sense of low HR where it unlocks entire tiers but once you start getting into the high HR ranks you'll find singular quests and sometimes unique monsters or scenarios that are only accessible to really high HRs like 60. I specifically remember that to make a 100% affinity build in 3U there was a high HR Nargacuga quest that was the only way to get it.

Alright, I bought XX and started with Longsword/Bushido style because I like the idea of perfect dodges but there's something very annoying, but maybe I'm simply doing it wrong. After a perfect dodge I can do a strong attack however before I can start the attack animation the character always runs a certain distance which can't be interrupted, at least as far as I know. That little sprint always causes me to run past the monster and sometimes even leave the zone on accident which is fucking annoying. How am I supposed to use that counter attack so that it doesn't whiff 95% of the time? If it's really as finicky as I think it is, which other style should I try out instead?

I'd love to play more 4U but the 3DS hurts my hands when playing Monhun for some reason so I never got far into the game. Played a bunch of 3U already but I might try out the PSP games some time since I've never touched them before. At the moment XX is enough though since I have a ton of other games I want to play as well.

Brave is consistently useful across all weapons, if not just for the sheathing dodge which is broken earlygame and less safe but still very powerful lategame, but how gimmicky the moveset is varies pretty wildly. GS and GL are pretty easy to use though, GS in particular playing similar to World GS but much more player-involved (you don’t just tank through everything, but it is noncommittal). Motion values and movesets are well documented at this point, so you can always look those up for the big picture, then experiment for yourself. Aerial IG plays nothing like other Aerial weapons, and the game isn’t going to tell you that.

Fuck off, Souls fag. With the way the game is designed and played, a parry system would obliterate the balance because the game isn't designed for it.

How do I get into gunning? I can use every blademaster weapon except IG but I can't wrap my head around the gunner playstyle. Which I want to because I know that certain elder dragons are basically a lost cause for blademaster weapons.

Gunning is all about positioning, attacking weak spots and predicting attacks, if LBG you want to run elements or Normal LV2, if HBG you want to run mainly Pierce LV1 and 2, 3 is for Gravios sized monsters Normal LV2 is fine too but not nearly as strong as pierce.
Evade extender do many favors to HBG, LBG just need attack skills to keep up a decent DPS, evade 2, 3 are a kinda cheap way to play but nothing will touch you, specially on a LBG.
I don't use bow because bow is for fags.
ed7ba6 No.16335214

Which game? Because in world you just fucking do it because you don't need to know how to position or be good, just load up on the mortars and pretend you're an artillery piece, don't worry about running out of ammo either, just farcaster out and grab more ammo from your box because you can in world. Fuck I hate what world did to the gunner weapons. Even then you can move while shooting leading to an extremely non-commital playstyle that's actually beneficial.
in other games, you need to know the monster far better than a blademaster because you're so immobile with the HBG (4U with siege mode especially). Bushido HBG is pretty strong, but you'll feel like you're not doing high damage unless you play well and know what you're doing. Not to mention it's an expensive weapon, you want to go all out, you're gonna need a constant supply of ammo either crafted, or bought with the better ammo being crafted only.
TLDR: Gunning is entirely about positioning and knowing weak points, you're incredibly immobile and if you play LBG you're gonna have to make multiple weapons just to match your elements correctly. HBG can get away with just using the general purpose ones typically. And Bow is for people who don't understand ammo, damage, or fun.
Also You can easily kill Elders in world with blademaster weapons the fuck are you on. fucking GS has the fastest TA on most of them

You fucking mega-retard just use goddamn citra. It's literally identical to playing upscaled GU you troglodyte steamcuck. Barring that just play literally any monster hunter game emulated, if you can run world with all it's bugs and deliberate de-optimization bottlenecks to make modding harder you can probably run 4U at 60fps.

My first MH was MH3U on the 3ds via the demo, the first monster I managed to hunt and kill was Lagombi.
Just from that demo alone I fell in love with the series and the monsters weren just dinosaurs, I saw giant rodents, giant monkeys, giant snakes, extra large whales, giant spiders, multiple RAPE-A-SAURSREXes and even some giant buggos!
The monster variety that ive seen in 4u was drastically reduced in world and it was a fucking tragedy, the Zorah Magdaros fight was ass too.

The only hammer you need in 4U is the Seltas hammer, which you can make as early as village LR Seltas the very first big monster in the game, it can be upgraded all the way to be a pretty decent and consistent hammer until you get the G rank Crimson Fatalis hammer but at that point you are pretty done with the game.
Hammer needs reckless players, maybe you aren't man enough to use the hammer in an effective way.

Get an iron line hammer until Edragons instead of your retarded los hammer like everyone else does. I'm pretty sure you can get something with decent blue/white@+2 from G1 that beats out 90% of the hammers until g3 exclusively from gathering.
>you dont have enough damage to finish a quest with more than a single minute
Is kut-ku's konchu bonanza really that hard for you?
>>16345218
Presumably he's asking about dubble crossed, but I have no idea why you'd recommend the seltas hammer specifically over iron line, barroth(khezumat) or a variety of other cheap weapons with high raw instead of unreliable elements.

No, IG is broken in 4u because of how strong it is. CB has a lot of utility and is very fun to play, but actually isn't even in the top 3 strength wise. Look at speedrun times, greatsword is still king with IG beating it for some monsters and being 2nd for everything else.
