It's the best 4th generation game and easily one of the best in the series.

How is it compared to world?

It's really good with a shitton of content and lots of gameplay variety, but if you are new to MonHun and have nobody to play with, you might be a bit overwhelmed. There are people still playing it online but most of them are at the endgame, and it takes a while to reach it. But generally they are pretty welcoming, unless they are chinks. World might be better for newcomers to the series, but this one is just as good (at least I had more fun with it than with World)

Easily superior to World: Iceborne, and here's why

>insane replayability with over 93 monsters, EVEN if you remove subspecies; also more than just wyverns, has insects, snakes, spiders, frogs etc.
>deviants are simply better than subspecies in every way. much harder fights with their own distinctive movesets.
>actually challenging endgame, has some of the hardest quests in the series, tough as nails shit to test your mettle as a true hunter
>virtually no cutscenes in gameplay ever. you can, however, unlock ecology videos of the elite four plus valfalk by beating their village quests.
>you can pause the game while offline.
>online lobby system is the good old fun of actually joining a room, talking to people, exchanging guild cards, chatting inbetween hunts, taking turns posting quests, sticking together for many hours... it's what makes MH online great
>catlolis which are very cute. the bherna and airship gals are also cute as well.
>actual weapon design variety; tons of weapons to craft and they all look different and unique so it's a lot of fun even when they're not viable.
>endless amount of weapon+armor+style+arts combinations, opening up so many possibilities. option to play guild/striker without arts like classic MH exists.
>lets you use the transmog system instead of keeping it only for specific DLC/event armor
>rebalanced new weapons: insect glaive and charge blade DPS is now more in line with other medium-sized weapons. charge blade now force you to utilize more of its axe moveset.
>sword & shield has oils that turn it into a pure powerhouse with amazing utility in KO and partbreak.
>hunting horn can play double notes by hitting the monster, encouraging a more aggressive playstyle and discouraging deadweight corner horning.
>gunlance has a heat mechanic that utilizes shells in a meaningful way and separates it further from the normal lance
>you can play as a palico

The old style games are pretty different compared to World, even GU as different as it is compared to the other games, but it's got a shit ton of stuff to do, don't be afraid to look up what you need to do online because the game won't tell you outright what you need to do to progress

I like GU better than world to be frank.

Can you make an asian looking PC like in P3rd?

It's great. Currently 155 hours in, getting close to g rank

Not op but I’ve been considering buy this game. Is it that awesome?

There are chinky eyes/face types and it has a lot of asian themed armors

Yes. You can even visit the P3rd village and go to Misty Peaks for the fifth fucking game in a row.

The game is great and I would say that it's my favorite in the series. There's a demo on the Switch but the last monster will destroy you there so don't be sad if this happens, in the full game you will have decent equipment and skills unlike the demo to fight him and more time too.

World's combat and movement is a lot smoother, not saying is better just different. You can easily get used to the old style.
Content wise there's no contest, GenU is just fucking insane, if you are into customizing your characters with cool armor you can spend hundreds of hours with it.
World does introduce some QoL stuff, but most of it is pretty minor. The biggest change is probably that the maps don't have loading between zones, but honestly loaging is pretty brief so it takes the same amount of time getting from one to another.
Also GenU has way better music

Which is better GUbros? SEEEE YA AAAAA or BEEE CAHFUUUL

One issue with the loading zones, particularly with the older areas, is how unclear it is where they exactly they begin. Having a fight go near one has the potential to seriously interrupt the flow of battle.

Gen is basically a Best Of album for the series fans, so it's a weird game to start with. The pacing is strange - expect a few hours of fetch quests at the beginning. Monsters are kind of just thrown in randomly, with a lot of early game trash. It also introduces playstyles completely nonexistent in any other MH game, which can break the balance.

It does have a lot of content though.

that is definitely an issue, but once you learn where they more or less are you are supposed not to lure the monster too close to them. Knowing where within the arena you are meant to fight the monster is kinda part of getting good. Similar to World where you aren't supposed to fight monsters in corridors, or how they clearly placed the enviromental traps in the middle of arenas.

>place trap
>monster falls in
>prepare to throw tranq bombs
>BULLFANGO OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE
Yeah it's great.

Sell me on Alchemy Style, Barrel wizard.

Since this is a classic MH thread, are you ready to dump your screenshots and webms when our enemy drops their last trailer?

We need to silence the marketers with actual MH, and dampen the hype levels.

Remember, we are at a war of liberation. The war to take back MH from Sony.

ryozo, i know you're watching this innocent mh thread, wheres my leeks.

I love the cheese fountain.

>monster limps away
>enter new area
>place trap
>monster makes one attack without even trying to approach it
>immediately leaves for another area

At least the newer games let you destroy the traps that you put down so you don't have to wait around for them to just go away on their own

Obligatory styles chart

It's fantastic. Adept dual blades 4 life.

You can destroy traps in GU.

Call me old school, but for me it’s hammer guild style.

>sony

funny you should mention that I'm replaying the original PS2 version right now,was there a way to trap monsters like the PSP versions?

I already tried using pit traps on Yian Kut-Kut but I still ending up slaying instead of capturing it ;_;

Alchemy hammer is pretty great as well, mostly because you lose the charged spin attack so you never have to worry about stopping before delivering the superpound.

>not going full dual swords while jugging bug juice

This kills the Worldfags

Game costs nothing if your switch is hacked so just try it OP. Nobody can explain to you what your experience will be like because the skill gap is all over the place.

>hacked

but user I'll be playing on the light which is apparently going to be "unhackable" so there's that,it's a good thing nintendo's online is only 20$ per year right

bump

10/10
Aerial style is my favorite style

Better than fucking world thats for fucking sure.

Better than world but probably dead in terms of multiplayer by now

It’s not even about killing them just saying hey GU is absolutely insane and a love letter to MH fans

Personally i’m avoiding hacking because if I get 400 games and play none of them again what’s the point?

What makes matter's worse is that World is very likely to be the first entry for many people that otherwise never would have looked twice at the series

I don’t know about you but I can find turn rooms within minutes

I've put 15 hours in already and I didn't even realize this, been playing Guild the whole time. Thanks, user

This unfortunately.
Funny enough a lot of the old reviews were complaining it’s not DMC-Bayonetta enough
Plus Capcom just happened to be at the right place at the right time to scoop up pissed off Destinyfags and bored Dark souls fags
I just fear classic despite its strong sales will just be snuffed out to chase the World audience

Do you need a gunner bro?
I feel like playing

No thanks dude.
I just finished playing

I should be studying for finals but I could knock out a hub quest or two if you wanna

Awesome joining now

Bump

I thought the switch was anti-friends can you play with your friend list?

yes, but that is a room ID i think

Yes actually it’s an option

Dear gunner bro
Thanks for being such a bro

Isn’t 4U considered to be the best so far?

thanks for a fun few hunts, lads

it's like how P3rd was when it was first revealed

youtube.com/watch?v=inP9-NRQy4M

Depends on who you talk to
I for one, love GU if for no other reason:
Not on the 3DS.

No problem bro
I’m just happy the tread wasn’t turn to complete shit with GU vs World shit flinging

Attached: 0DD58635-F3E3-4393-A90B-89C2E6DDCFEE.jpg (640x718, 118K)

I really want that autist gone because he's the sole reason why we keep getting this shitflinging

This why can’t folks just get along?

They can. The issue is this that guy can't

Fucking everyone hates that faggot.
Mods effectively can’t ban him either
I remember 1 Thread he got publicly and permanently banned 13 times and just kept posting.

He caused enough ruckus that I can't even find a decent GU or any of the previous MH game lobbies for so long because he'd just obsess with World over and over. Was even worse back when he spammed 5 posts and effectively derailed all MH threads till 2 months ago

Also, mods or jannies were doing quite well with this guy since now we know he's just a shitposter, and not an actual MH fan. I mean who the fuck samefags his own arguments?

Attached: 1565985398259.png (268x316, 154K)

I remember that morning
I thought the menace was over
But like a bad rash mixed with cancer he just kept coming back

Is he even aware that he does more damage than good? I mean its a high chance that he's a troll, but this kind of shitposting dedication can't be just plain falseflagging

This
Even if no one was taking the bait he’d samefag himself like 6 times to make it appear as if retards are taking the bait

Worse part I’m pretty sure he didn’t even own the game he was completely obsessed about.

back on topic how solo friendly is GU played through FU almost entirely solo till high rank after finding out about the PS3's ad hoc mode/application

wonder if it's still alive & kicking

Dude his dedication towards conversation destroying shitposting is greater than my fucking will to live
I’m sure he knows exactly what he’s doing
I wish his mom would just strangle him in his sleep

You should also try God Eater 3 as well, the story has nothing to do with the other God eater games and it is a franchise made to be like monster hunter.

I have to say hard sorta
You’ll find 20 hardcore austists like these dudes have +4000 hours into FU

Elitist type but they know absolutely everything about the game

I liked God eater 3 my only complaints is the hunts are far too short
>MH
Sub 5 weak monster
10 minutes medium to G rank
15 high G ranked
25 deviant pushing your shit in
>GE3
Weak monsters 2 minutes
Medium monster 5 minutes
Large monsters 8 minutes
Ultimate Elder god monster: 12 minutes

I felt the hunts were too short too.
Also gunning is fucked and often times fucking useless

Eh maybe Namco will get it right some day.
Probably not.

Yeah I believe it when I see it

>Drop in a group
>Everyone bum rushes monster
>Give the monster a few smacks, then run into a corner
>SHAKEWEIGHT!
>Boom, everyone has some buffs
>Smack monster a few more times
>SHAKEWEIGHT!
>Everyone's muscles bulge from their armor as their weapons cut deeper
>Hit monster
>SHAKEWEIGHT!
>Every hunters armor shatters off of yourselves as you reach PEAK CONDITION!
>Proceed to make undeniable love to whichever bitch monster was unlucky enough to let you reach SSJG MODE

Zaibatsu fights are awesome on your first encounters and are the best times to waste a couple carts on learning their movesets. Glavenus is especially a wake up call for you to step it up if you are a guild style purist and hands down one of the most enjoyable fights in the series imo

It's great.
Just remember that Valor style is incredibly unbalanced and you should avoid using it unless you want easy mode.

Valor is pretty fun though
Horribly broken but I have to admit it’s a fuck ton of fun right behind aerial style

>style

wat?

Still, theres nothing like getting knocked out of the area by a monster, the emotion is gives you is somewhere between annoyance and a loony tunes sense of amusement.
Yea, I don't know what they did with worlds music.

i though phone games threads were deleted on sight?

It features the best fight in the series Valstrax, so it is definitely worth playing just for that.

THIS

I'm planning to buy a switch this year, but I wanna know how's the online play and around how long would it last? Because if the community's dying I'd just rather save for MHW.
