Fuck this game and fuck everyone who pretends it's fun. I'm a veteran of the Souls series starting with Demon's Souls and I've beaten Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls 3 along with Bloodborne. I have beaten the DLC and on NG+. Dark Souls is widely known as the most difficult video game series and having mastered these games, I consider myself an excellent gamer who can meet challenges head on and triumph over them.
Monster Hunter is terribly designed and over half of my deaths are from unavoidable bullshit like flexing after healing since one hit basically almost kills me and having monsters stun you for 5 seconds after getting hit twice is absolutely artificial difficulty. How am I supposed to do anything when I'm standing there with stars unable to move? How am I even supposed to hit the monster when the weapons are so fucking slow? Seriously, how can anyone enjoy this clunky garbage?
I really hope the Switch announcement next month reveals a MH game. The 3ds is too tiny, I miss playing on the Wii U pro controller...
Evan Gray
I hate the new gunlance mechanics.
Hudson Hughes
Anyone up for some 4U?

Any fucking news of this series ever getting the fuck off of handhelds? Jesus fuck, the PSP was barely tolerable, how the fuck do people put up with the calculator that is the 3DS? Honest to fucking god I'd rather they go mobile, because fucking mobile phones are infinitely more powerful these days than Nintendo's phisher price plastic toys, and Sony's newest proprietary format/memory scam.

I started the series a few weeks ago playing MHFU. I honestly think the setting would work better as a campaign setting for D&D.

I do love how there's no way to start a thread whining about MonHun since its always seen as a joke. Its fun.

The switch will have MonHun 5 unless capcom go full retarded.

Isaiah Gonzalez
>>never used anything other than greatsword for 4 games straight I will never understand why people do this
I play with all weapons every game until I master them
Although I admit I normally lance through it on my first run
Robert Jackson
I love these because they out all the desperate newfriends like
Elijah Price
It pisses me off how people act like they're similar in any way. At most they both have fairly slow movement and have the player evade constantly but that's about it.
Jeremiah Parker
People forgot what weighted action feels like so anything with that gets lumped together. Too many games today have shit like "infinite combo button".
Thomas Green
I wish I could get into MH series. I love the aspect of hunting monsters with some actual basics and preparations of actual hunting implemented. But the ridiculously endurance the monsters has puts me off. I'd be fine hunting a giant dinosaur for 30 minutes if it actually involved hunting - but it's me mostly wailing on it and dodging all the attacks until one of us falls.
Isaiah Watson
Not him but I did this because I didn't realise there were other weapons when I first played Freedom, in my defence I was 8.
Eli Bell
They are very similar
Sebastian Hall
as opposed to?
Kevin White
All they have is dodgeroll 3rd person melee with a variety of weapons. You could almost lump kingdom hearts in there as well
Brody Bailey
Honestly I think they could cut down the number of supplies you can take and the HP of the monster and it would be the exact same game but quicker which would be nice. You have to fight the same monster multiple times anyway, no reason why it always has to be 15 to 30 minutes each fight.
Luis Morales
just get a friend i bought my bf monster hunter and we went through each hunt lowrank-highrank within 10 minutes for every monster
David Jackson
As opposed to actual hunting? Stalking prey and killing it when the moment is right? Ancient humans took down mammoths with primitive spears, I'm pretty sure we could take down a T-Rex with a few of them too.
Lucas Green
user that takes dozens of people to do that just to a mammoth. To do that to something like this guy you would get killed in a heartbeat

Luis Richardson
They both have a heavily reliance on endurance fighting which nearly no other ARPGs do, and even basic features like iframes/counters are very similar
Anthony Martin
Zelda also fits those descriptions
Jason Morgan
I tried all the weapons and I'm only good at Hammer, SA, HH, Lance and LBG.
But I always use lance and LBG neglecting my skills with the other weapons, and I do this cuz grinding is tedious and killing rathalos 20 times in a row is not very fun.
Carson Smith
the entire structure of the game is completely different though and the combat feels totally different as well. Compare fighting kalameet to fighting a rathalos. Totally different.
Gabriel Clark
anyone wants to help me hunt a hyper savage pickle? need that armor but im getting pickled on
John Hall
Really? I find Souls bosses to be more reminiscent of oldschool bosses, either you or the boss is dead in a minute. Luck plays a large part since you can just fight the boss over and over until it stops being cheap.
MH is unique in that fights last so long that luck doesn't do jack shit. If you can't dodge that one attack combo, guess what, you're not beating the monster. If you can't hit the monster with good frequency, you're running out of time, stamina and you'll get ambushed by more monsters making the hunt impossible to finish.
Asher Walker
what gaym?
Jacob Price
>hyper
Jace Long
generations
Matthew Sanchez
Not really. Shit we're forging new weapons out these monsters into scalpel levels of sharpness and rudimentary guns. NOTHING SURVIVES A .50 CAL.
Cameron Campbell
Still the hardest monster, before 4U nerfed him.
Diablos, Deviljho, I'll take them all no sweat. But when a Brachydios show sup, I head for ze hills.
Brody Ortiz

Isaac Carter
>playing 4u for over 800 hours before getting bored >play Generations for only about 100 hours
I feel like I should go back at some point but Generations just seems so much sparser then 4u
Hudson Hill
I felt he was harder in 4u. Maybe I'm just thinking of frenzied brachydios.
Colton Collins
You're in luck, capcom is doing what they always do and making a G version. So wait it out and then realize how shitty generations was all along, this time with even more gathering quests.
Nicholas Jackson
brachy is pretty easy any good LBG shit all over it.
Jordan Foster
I played 4U nonstop for about ~30hrs then dropped it because I got so busy and can't be fucked to get back in the groove. It's definitely divisive gameplay, but it's addicting as fuck if it clicks with you.
Colton Watson
Fuck I kind of hope not. I already had to buy a shitty fucking 3ds just to play monhun, I don't want to buy a console for one game.
Jace Sullivan
Same, I played it for 80 hours and then just stopped.
My longest session was with 3U though, I played it for 300 hours, a year and half, never going online. MHFU got close too, 150 hours morning to night.
Colton Cox
What do you mean? The Switch will have MH5 and it will be glorious. No forced cinematic experience, no complaining about grafics, just pure, hardcore gameplay.
Logan Evans
>I'm a veteran of the Souls series Every time.
Owen Wood
can i get sauce on this please
Owen Evans
Not me, not unless they actually give it some difficulty again. 4u was piss easy and X was a fucking joke.
Easton Wilson
The thing that bugs me the most is when they nail and weapon and then fucking ruin it in the next game.
Like Lancing in Tri. Felt so fucking good. But nooooo only the GS is allowed to have quick kill times, let's fuck it up.
And Hunting Horns in 3U, dropping bitches left and right, but it's ooooonline oooooonly so let's remove the damage, let's remove the range, let's add a useless double-swipe while moving and compensate by giving you double notes so you don't need to strategize. SHIT.
Jack Richardson
>tfw pic related will never be real
Kayden Smith
>I will never understand why people do this
Greatsword is the #1 weapon for me because it's perfect. Every other weapon in Monster Hunter is either fast, low damage or slow, high damage but Greatsword is a perfect mix of both. I also love trying to time my charges against various monsters.
Noah Mitchell
Souls bosses really are oldschool in the sense that they barely react to what you're doing, barring the occasional moveset upgrade at varying points in the health pool. MH fights involve strategic partbreaking, staggers, trips, trapping, etc.
Generations is trying very hard to be Frontier and it's much worse for it. Deviant monsters/moves/hitzone is all meant to just recycle old monsters and make them more of an annoying slog without consideration for the tone and mechanics of the game itself, and Hyper monsters are just "here are some monsters with random glowy bits, they have 3x the usual health and damage because vidya lololol" and don't add anything new or interesting. Controls are also the sloppiest and least responsive they've ever been, topping even the worst of the Gen3 underwater combat.
4U kicked ass until Apex monsters were thrown in, and the worst of it (140GQ) was entirely optional and explicitly for the minmax-iest of the Minmaxers out there and thus forgiveable; in Generations if you want to avoid literally suffering through obnoxious bullshit you're going to miss out on over half of the already short game.
Jackson Price
>Pick up MHG >Enjoy the gameplay a fuckton >All those gathering quests upon gathering quests upon gathering quests
I'M A FUCKING HUNTER! I KILL MONSTERS AND CARVE THEIR BODIES! I'M NOT SOME FAGGOT THAT PRANCES IN A MEADOW AND PICKS FLOWERS! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.
Logan Wilson
I don't remember any mandatory gathering quests in MHG?
MHFU had one per rank which was kind of annoying.
Joshua Richardson
Requests are mandatory if you want to unlock everything. Particularly cat quests which are vital to the farm.
Nathaniel Mitchell
That means they're optional.
Pretty sure every MH has assloads of gathering quests if you want to "unlock everything". Personally I just do the shit that's fun.
Jace Rodriguez
MHG has the most of any entry in the series. I'm pretty sure Capcom did it only because they added the gay Prowler mode.
Kevin Rivera
Dude I've been trying to get a new 3ds so I can play Generations at a good FPS, and holy shit it's sold out literally everywhere within a 50 mile radius of me because of Christmas. BUY YOUR GIFTS EARLY YOU MOTHERFUCKERS, I WANT TO HUNT SOME MONSTERS.
Justin Fisher
Because then I'll have to buy a switch and it will be the only game I own for it.
Lucas Perez
That's what I said about the 3DS, but I ended up playing tons of fantastic games, like kid icarus. Sakurai has a new IP in the works for the Switch so I'm already sold.
Jeremiah Lee
It could work
it just has to not mean a 10% nerf to the lance for some dumb fucking reason
Easton Rogers
That's what I said about the 3ds and then I bought monhun gen too. So 2 games. I was off by 1.
