I wanna get into MonHun for MHW next year but I no longer own a 3ds. I just remembered my Wii U I bought way back when. And with a free copy of Monster Hunter 3U. Is it worth playing through still?

Yes

yeah, it's probably the best modern monhun as far as controls and performance goes.
it doesn't have a lot of new stuff like styles and arts or whatever the fuck, or climbing, but that shit seems kinda gay anyways

Thanks dood, Ian downloading it now. Even if not worth it it's a pretty tiny download anyways

We shall see

Sick

Hope the download continues while I'm playing the VC version of Xenoblade

3U is garbage
get toukiden instead

climbing and arts/styles are definitely improvements on the formula, but 3U is still fantastic in it's own right and has the best endgame between it and the later games. I really hope GQ's and Relic gear don't make a comeback in World (they were only in 4U).

yeah. it's fun. it was my first mh game as well. i never played online, just solo.

Man. Good memories. The only gripe for me was the emphasis of underwater combat. Don't get me wrong, it was handled quite well but I had a hard time maximising my damage there. Just a personal thing, and I hate underwater stuff regardless of the game anyway

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is arguably the best in the series, DESPITE garbage underwater combat.

But every installment in the series has some kind of shit like this, and if i had to choose between Apex Monsters, Deviant grind shit and Underwater fights i'd take underwater any day.

Also just the fact that you can play it with 2 actual fucking analog sticks on the Wii U
