What's the fan favorite monster hunter?

I played world, but dropped it after a couple hours because it just seemed tedious.
I'm trying to understand why it's so popular of a series

I liked the wilds playtest

>>695344667
The grind is part of the fun and the experience, as much as learning a monster's pattern is. The feeling of improving your gear and figuring out a tricky hunt, form the backbone of the series. If you don't like these two parts, you'll probably only ever get as far as the end of low rank in any of the games, if you go even that far

Is that reshaded?
Anyway Sunbreak has perhaps the best "endgame" design of any monster hunter with the exception of not giving you Crowns in Anomalies
It also has, when you remove the reprehensible wirebugs and switch skills (even if incredibly impractical), the better ratio of Monster:Hunter movement and tracking in all of the new engine titles.

>>695344739
I didn't really. The bird feels like even more filler than manually walking around as in old titles, which I did in 99% of cases. And the monsters are a poor showing all around despite chata being salvageable (read: currently disappointing shitmon)

>>695344667
It's either hook you at first sight or it doesn't.
Although my friend did got hooked after refunding the game once and then triying out Insect Glaive. Maybe try out all the weapons first

>>695344549
>Had to mod in blood splatters on hits because the game's too soulless to have it by default
yikes

>>695345101
wtf why isn't chatacabra five million times stronger than velocidrome

i miss when MH felt like an attitude era wrestling match between your cool toon vs a huge monster
even underwater

>>695345248
It's just boring and there's no way around it. The other actual amphibian skeletons are all better, and none of chata's moves are of any real note nor will they ever be because it's a designated shitmon
Walking punching bag that could have been much more.

Why do fanged wyverns exist except to make Zinogre a special snowflake and so World can spam them to have only wyverns, every one of these fuckers could have been a fanged beast

>>695344549
>reshade
>blood mod
>no damage numbers


is this really all it takes to make world tolerable?

>>695345491
Gotta turn off the minimap (very different from the old map) and debloat the UI in general too

>>695345473
because fanged wyverns were meant to be flying wyverns who fully evolved into land wyverns, hence Zinogre's vestigial wing tips on his paws, but capcom went full retard and slapped lizards in the category also Akantor/ Ukanlos should be retconned as fanged wyverns, but apparently that's not bushido-friendly

>>695344549
World was always kino.

>>695344667
>fan favorite
None, monster hunter players fucking hate their games.

>>695344667
Portable 3rd is the best one. Play it on emulator with translation patch.
It's a popular series because the mission based system allowed you to pick up and play when you only have a short amount of time available. Just sneak a couple hunts in here and there. Treat it like MGS Portable Ops and Peace Walker.

My favourite thing has been watching rise transform into a classic game which everyone loved now that Wilds is coming out.

>>695344667
FU, 3U, 4U, GU all have their upsides.
You may note that these are on the tail end of releases and possess the most Content

>>695344549
If you don't think World was the best game ever made then you're a fucking faggot who can suck my monster hunting cock.

all i want is MH 3UGU with every maps (Tri's restored, all the stupid ledges removed), every monsters, every sub/ rare/ deviant/ etc (no deviant tickets), underwater fight, shakalakas, palicos and prowlers

>>695346790
Yeah, D. Island especially isn't the same without the water area even if it only got used by a few monsters.
There are more now which could plausibly be in there, too.

shut the fuck up. The only retards gaslighting themselves are those pretending Monster Hunter was ever good. It was always a shit overrated franchise. I've played almost every game and World is easily one of the better ones and Wild is looking decent too. The franchise hasn't gotten more or less shit because it has always been mediocre garbage to begin with. Sometimes slightly better, sometimes slightly worse but always mediocre as fuck.

World definitely had some flaws, but overall it was still one of the best MH experiences you could get simply for being available on PC and being graphically intensive. Mechanics differences aside people felt Rise/Sunbreak was a downgrade simply because it was a Switch port without all the limitations that entails.

>>695347308

That's how every single Monster Hunter "fan" thinks.

>>695347419
Because World's success brought new people into the series instead of it being an autistic niche series.

>>695344549
p3rd will always be the best to me

Is 4U easy to emulate? I kind of want to play again but don't want to get claw hand from using my 3DS.

>>695347419
You have to understand MH is a series where you might spend 1000 hours on one game, of course people are going to be unhinged when you imply their favorite is shit. Normies wouldn't get like this, but /v/irgins spends hundreds of hours in monhun

>>695347912
But I started with Tri, which I consider to be a poor, if concise, game, and enjoy FU, 4U, GU, and Sunbreak

>>695347941
MH was already selling millions of copies per game way before World.

If you think World is tedious the series isn't for you, because the older games are liquid shit in comparison.

>>695348775
I think so, I didn't look, but it's probably on github too so there might be less barrier for entry
I just recall seeing it in the oldgen emu pastes

Valid point but people enjoy progression
The grind motivates you to hunt something multiple times, and over several fights you enjoy mastering that fight.

It's repetitive, but then you get versions like silver rathalos that are much different.

Just re-beat MH3U. This game is waaaay too fucking easy. 3U Brachydios is still the best fight in the franchise. Moving on to MH4U next.

>>695350809
Dios' weapons are overpowered in 3U as they should be

>>695350809
I've played 4u a little past gore magala, pretty good
But after fighting Valstrax is rise I want to get GU up and running

>>695344667
the one with Atahl-Ka in it, genuinely the best fight in the franchise

>>695350809
MH4U is a knuckle down slog once you get to G2-3 but it's worth it.

>>695350923
Val feels way better to fight for me in GU than Rise. I don't know if it's more "grounded" or whether his wing mode switches are just easier to read
I do hate the vtol pokes and they're absent so that's probably part of it

>>695350920
Killed 6 Brachy in HR but didn't get my gem, so I postponed the grind until Sticky Situation. Still took 11 kills to get the mats I needed. Even without slime I didn't struggle one bit.

>>695351086
No problem, I've beaten MH4U several times. In fact I beat it like a month ago, and now I'm going to beat it again.

>>695344549
Well, now you know how we perceived you back when you did it for MHFU.

What's the consensus for what the hardest fights in the series are?

>>695351086
I obviously haven't played the GU version but it seems slightly slower and more telegraphed from the videos I've watched. Which is more in line with MH being more about planning and positioning than reaction. I love the design and speed though, a jet monster is hilarious

>>695344549
If MHW looked like your webm on day 1, I think I would have loved it much more

>>695351271
Clashing Fists! in 3U is borderline impossible.
Twin Terrors event quest in MHFU if you don't cheese it.
Probably Extreme Behemoth or some other Frontiershit that was never meant to be soloed.

Fire Drill is probably the most complained about in 4U but 140 Shagaru is almost completely RNG on the geysers. On a similar note Risen Shagaru in Rise is the biggest brick it'll toss at you but you've got gear and gimmicks by then

>>695351590
I haven't tried emulating any 3DS stuff before. Is there an emulator you recommend? And are the roms hard to find?

>>695351598
Why Risen Shagaru over Risen Valstrax? They're both a out the same to me, but the latter edges out by a hair.

>>695351715
Citra and no. Download the HD texture packs and put in some cheats that remove dithering.

>>695344549
>Rise
Wasn't it well liked or something? Not a MHfag.

>>695351759
Valstrax is basically a test of whether you're running away. He's most dangerous at distance.
Shagaru on the other hand has like 45 seconds long combo chains, it's endurance for anyone who doesn't know what they're getting into

>>695351759
Val is much easier to deal with. Good hitzones that are easy to hit, meanwhile Shagaru's shitzone wings constantly cover the good hitzones.

>>695351759
Many thanks friend

>>695351827
There's a sub-faction in the fanbase that only likes 1 MH game, and Rise isn't that game.

Why do people hate Rise? Wirebug is annoying to use sometimes I guess.
Are there any other good weapons to try if I'm liking longsword?

>>695352064
There was a cheat code for the 3DS version to remove that extra defense, but I wanted to play the WiiU version since I already beat the 3DS version a decade ago. In retrospect, I should've played the 3DS version anyway, nothing ever did any damage to me and it wasn't thrilling at all.

I got charm table 7 btw, found an expert+10 talisman near the end.

what's the easiest 3ds mh?

>>695352152
Possibly switch axe or later courage hammer unless you're doing a lot of countering already

>>695351271
most of the Frontier end game fights before it went EOS were insane, MMO raid boss dances and one hits everywhere but you actually need to play the game and hit shit instead of doing tab target combat

>>695352064
holy based. any mods for it that cut down on the farming?

>>695352152
Insect Glaive is even more agile and versetile while having similar reach and movesets. Courage Hammer if you still want a satisfying counter and more oomphf in your attacks.

>>695352273
3U. GU styles are really broken but the early game is still harder than anything seen in the first 30 hours of GU.

monster hunter fucking sucks, it tells you the tedium and pointless grind is the "fun" part when it's all just a pointless loop
they brainwashed you into that so they could skip writing a good story and making proper characters and a cool world, literally the exact same shit fromsoft did with their souls shit except monster hunter did it first but they replaced "vague lore item description shit and roll spam slop combat" with "tedious grind and monsters running away from 1v1 after you hit them hard one time"

>>695344549
Rise was great

>>695347419
Consolewar shitposting is what brought this upon us, all the way back when Tri moved to the Wii which if you want to know the real story why, it's because at the time Sony was being huge dicks about who got early PS3 dev kits and an exclusive support suite of Sony-made libraries and optimizations to use, and Capcom lost out on both because they refused to do a PS exclusivity deal at the time and then Monster Hunter being full-on exclusive to Nintendo for years after P3rd Capcom USA had plans to bring P3rd over to the states and eventually other regions with the PS3 port, but Sony again were huge dicks and demanded achievements to be added to the localization. It didn't matter in the end because they refused to update Ad-hoc Party (which P3rd HD relied on for multiplayer) outside of Japan for no fucking particular reason other than to be huge dicks.
All of the console manufaturers' politicking never mattered to the core audience, MH fans always moved with the series no matter what, but it's only gotten worse with the modern shitflinging that goes around on /v/. Hell go back to last year and you could still find people arguing about the individual games, not on their actual content, but whether or not it'll make particular groups of consolefags """""""seethe""""""" from seeing a game on their console get unfairly dookied on. Which is odd because now everything is on PC, you would think this particular subset of shitposting would stop completely but it's still happening.

>>695355836
So you're saying Xbros won?

>>695351271
Double Brachy in 3U will forever be the hardest shit just because in that game the explosions happen instantly with no setup or tell. Even double rajang in FU isn't as bullshit. When you get down to it, gen 2 jangs have an extremely small moveset that's easy to figure out, they just hit really hard and lead to combos.

>>695352124
You don't even fight the main doshaguma in the beta, that was just a regular ass one that you single out of the pack

>>695355836
I was just happy to see MH back on a proper console again when World rolled around, and even happier when it got a PC release so it could actually run/load at a reasonable speed.

>>695355952
They actually lost big time. OG Xbox was this fucking close to having a port of Monster Hunter 1, it never happened because Capcom couldn't backport the bare minimum requirements of Xbox Live multiplayer (namely voice chat) into MH1's code so they just dropped it.

>>695344549

Yup, pretty simple.

Man switch axe in wilds feels like shit. Why do they keep ruining it.

>>695351590
Well played.

>>695359954
Part of it too is probably just the zones getting even bigger to compensate for hunters getting faster, or in Rise's case specifically the wirebugs letting you monkey around up and over huge vertical areas

>>695351271
Ignoring frontier shit there are level 140 GQs in 4U, EX Deviants and meme stuff like Dual Hypers in GU
I found the rest of the games to be pretty easy

>>695351271
Silverwind 15 and EX silverwind were lobby killers. i remember leaving lobbies whenever the current turn was silver wind. Blood bath EX was the only other deviant i remember being in a league of its own. They arent particularly hard monsters, its just that their BS attacks are good at scamming carts off of your team and they can hit you wherever you are in the zone. silver wind especially could just fucking kill you had the audacity to use your items 1 mile away during a hunt which the other deviants cant really say.

Emergency apex monsters were pretty gay in rise but you have too much power for them to be a serious problem so people didnt complain about them

>>695347912
You can't just say the quiet part out loud like that. That would eliminate 80% of the "discussion" in MH threads.

>>695344549
Look I just like World, I don't care.

>>695350923

>on a proper console again

At the risk of starting stupid consolewar shit, I don’t see what you mean. The PS2 was often seen as the weakest hardware of its gen (even if it wasn’t so in ALL respects), and MH1/Dos weren’t exactly huge technical achievements for the platform given how well the experience was replicated on the PSP, where the series saw increasing popularity. The Nintendo platforms were just a natural continuation for the series’ customary level of production values up to that point.

>>695362660
If they don't fix that shit I will skip it until it's discounted. I get LS is the most popular but to add so much to it and leave other weapons feeling lame is unacceptable. I was hyped for the demo but it was underwhelming. Maybe the speculation that it's an older builder is true

>>695362907
NTA but Monster Hunter clearly did not belong on the portable consoles given their control scheme. Or even the Wii for that matter. If you have to create a peripheral that adds a second analog stick solely for Monster Hunter, the device was clearly not built for that use case.

>>695362907
Hell for all of that being on PS2 very nearly killed the franchise before it could gain any traction, there's a very good reason the only console Monster Hunter afterwards was 3 and 3U by technicality.

Trump won and so did Worldchads. Keep coping.

GU was the last MonHun.

>>695362907
The WiiU was the closest thing to a proper console during the Nintendo MH era. I.e. proper controller, reasonable hardware power. Whilst the Wii and 3DS games were acceptable for what they were, it just wasn't the same trying to play on them. So going back to a PS controller was great, and even better once of PC and could use either a PS or 360 controller. All coupled with better hardware, even if the game was horrible to load on a basic PS4.

Fanged Wyverns have a completely separate evolutionary origin compared to Flying Wyverns
They started as terrestrial quadrupeds and them evolved wings. Tigrex, Narga ans Barioth are winged Fanged Wyverns
I know Capcom likes to pretend Tigrex is like a living fossil representing the ancestor of all Flying Wyverns, but if you actually analyze the morphology via phylogenetic standards... It doesn't hold up to scrutiny

I remember the first time when World got announced I was assuming it was going to be a PS4 exclusive and I was prepared to buy a PS4 if that was the case. I never owned a PS console besides the PSP but I was more than happy when I found it was going to be out for Xbone as well since I already one. Real MHFans move wherever the game is, that's always been consistent at least for me.

I just cheat qol stuff. Like I'll beat a monster legit and just use cheats to skip excessive farming. I do some farming and even fondly remember times getting hardstuck on 1 specific mat and losing my mind after 15 kills with no drop. But if I just want to pivot to another weapon entirely I'm going to cheat in mats to catch up to where my main is at. Also I will shamelessly cheat in zenny and items because the farm mechanics are unlimited anyways just at the expense of time.

You could take all the existing content and instead of arbitrarily spawning a world state instead record tallies of the players activities, then generate a zone state that attracts different creatures, delete the guiding lands, put all the "endgame" shit on the zones with an extra area or two, and have a 10x better game endgame than whatever the fuck world is. And the irony of doing that is it's definitely less work than adding a new zone with all these gay ass meters and points fuck right off. It would take such little effort to entertain the aspect of immersion AND now you have a bunch of new activities for people to engage with now you have more reason for people to become a community. Why can shitfuck RPGmaker games do this yet AAA studios think they're above using something so simple?

There's always room for improvement in your hunting capabilties. That's why you hunt monsters, not for materials.

>>695344549
I'm tired of people guilt tripping me just because i didn't like playing portable and generations with weights hanging from my balls. I enjoy World, i liked Rise's Gunblade flying and i will probably like Wilds. There is too much bullshit in "current times" to feel bitter and pick at everything. I do get i'm biased but goddamn if the MH "pro players" are not one of the bitchiest players out there. We get QOL improvements, game reinvents and tries something new every title and they still bitch and moan about everything.

>>695360350
It felt so bad it sent me into a psychotic break where I learned longsword. Longsword sucks absolute dick to play though because it is way too easy and too simplistic. I played through half of sunbreak and iceborne with Long sword before giving up on the weapon ever being interesting to use. If they don't buff the swaxe then my next cope is GS with the charged counter mechanic in wilds.

For all the talk of a living breathing world that game is incredibly stiff and robotic with how the start of every hunt is the same routine thanks to a single invader.
I don't miss the monotony of equipping a dung bomb at the start of every HR hunt because of that retarded Bazel behavior.

Rise is the reason why they're putting an emphasis on story?
The reason they're making it cinematic?
Rise is the reason they're going for a "living ecosystem" with dynamic weather and hundreds of shivering frogs being simulated on the map at all times?
Why they're pushing graphical fidelity so much that it becomes a detriment to the performance?
The reason why they're going back to large player lobbies?
The reason they brought back the slinger and made the gathering even faster thanks to it?
The reason they brought back mantles?
The reason why they're doing the tracking thing again?

I don't know what game you played retard, but the current state of Wilds is due to pandering to worldfags who care about immersive experiences more than anything else.
Back when the trailer was new it was nothing but praises about it being World 2 and how it's going to be great since it's being made by the A-team and world director. But now it's suddenly not world's fault and "all the retarded shit" is due to rise.

even if that argument was true (it's not) it is a well known fact now that tons of games were made better with technical limitations and would have likely been much worse if they had modern bloat around

i can understand upscaling its a cope for console fags with 4K tv but how can anyone play with frame gen, i tried it once and the latency was atrocious not to mention artifacts in dynamic scenes, i would rather play with 40% less fps than with that garbage

>>695376483
framegen has no real world usecase
it exists so they can market games as having decent fps when in reality they run like dogshit
Its all part of the same downward spiral

>>695376570
framegen is fine if it is used at already high frame rates.

>>695376721
so the best use of it is when it isnt even noticable? wow great

>>695376570
the irony is that framgen is much worse the lower is your initial framerate, best is to use it when you already have 60+fps but what sane person would add artifacts and latency when they already have 60 fps, its gimmick which has no future.

I got bored of MHW after reaching the Viper Tobi-Kadachi after 102 hours and stopped playing for 3 weeks since.
Master Rank monsters had too much HP, took too long to kill and hit to hard.
I took longer time to kill a Pukei Puikei compared to Kushala and Xenojiiva.

The Coral Highlands and Rotten Vale reminded me of Made in Abyss
The Clutch Claw reminded me of Attack on Titan.
Weapons needing to be sharpened reminded me of Dark Souls 2 (non-SOFTS) where durability was tied to the frame rate.
Hunger reminded me of Dungeon Meishi but it didn't feel as important.
Monsters respawning after you kill or capture them reminded me of the dungeon system in Dungeon no Naka no Hito.
The Xenjivva reminded of Jakiro from Dota 2.
I swapped from the Hammer to the Bow after getting filtered by the Anjanath, then to the Dual Blades because /mhg/ said that I didn't beat the game, then to the Long Sword and now I'm using the Lance.

they all seem tedious at first
there is a lot to learn so the game slowly builds you up to the meat and potatoes of the game. you could spend hours and hours before you get to the traditional loop of "hunt monster, collect parts, upgrade shit and restock in town, repeat".
this is obviously off putting to most people, as you don't know how good the game is until you get to experience it. i remember playing tri back when it came out and i probably put 5-10 hours into it but it never clicked so i stopped playing.
it wasn't until a friend convinced me to play generations that it finally clicked and i've put at least 2k hours into the series since then
i can't say which is the fan favourite, they're all subtly different and each game will appeal to different people for different reasons. it could be that world would be the most enjoyable to you, and you just didn't give it enough of a chance. it could bethat something more like rise or generations is more up your alley, or it could be that the series is simply not for you.
i'd advise you to pick world back up and force yourself to get to high rank. if the game hasn't clicked with you by then, then mh may not be for you.
i'd also recommend you watch some youtube tutorials for your weapon of choice. there is a lot to the combat that the game simply doesn't explain to you, and figuring out a weapons moveset makes the games 100 times more enjoyable.

some people play games because they enjoy the gameplay
you seem to enjoy games because you like to check a bunch of boxes on a list

>amphibians/birds are jobbers
I hate this.
Give me Berserk Tetsu + Drilltusk + Desert Zamtrios frogmon on the level of Rajang/Elders. Then give it a Tombstone grab attack.
Frontier had the right idea with Forokururu being elder-grade status alatreon hummingbird.

World is good, just not as good as pre X/XX entries. Rise is bad, just not as bad as people say it is. XX is better than both, but not really by too much. Underwater combat was never good. "Classic" MonHun ended with Tri (yes 3U is not classic either). Casualization pr "streamlining" as they call it, started with portable (F1).

>>695348226
and world sold several times more than the second best selling game before it, what's your point?

>>695344549
don't care
i had my own problems with World but it doesn't outweighs my fun with it
rise is just plain obnoxious with everything it does
>inb4 gaslig-
i fucking hated rise since the day it released and it has not changed since

>>695380005
>Kindly explain why
bingbirds, wirebugs, every weapon is a different flavour of long sword

>>695380815
XX is peak, people just really overlook cool/niche Style/Arts and try to use Valor HBG as an argument.
>Underwater combat was never good
It's serviceable and really not hard to navigate/manage. You just gotta grasp that your character will naturally drift towards wherever the center of your screen is angled, so if you look down at the monster and move forward, you will descend and vice versa. And if you wanna keep your level, you just center the screen. With that in mind the additional 3rd dimension does in fact add a funky angle to the fights, since you get more blind spots above/below the monster.
The problem is that there are only like 8 underwater fights out of what, 59 or so monsters? And some of them even go on land, too. Underwater is basically a non-factor in its own game.

>they used the deviants
>in rise
They weren't even proper deviants or had their full movesets.

>>695381419
I'm not sure if I like redhelm more or less after learning it's a really blatant reference

>>695380005
Afflicted mons were just worse hypers: mandatory as opposed to optional, gimmick insists upon itself as opposed to being largely side garnished to whats basically just a souped up monster.

>>695344549
wait, worlds doesn't have blood what mod is this

>>695355836
That's just Capcom being autistic though. They made Tri for the Wii, that's fine, but there's no reason why that same game couldn't be ported to home consoles a few years later, and run at triple the resolution and double the framerate.
Same with 4U, why is it a 3DS exclusive when porting the game to PS4 and Xbox One (and PC) would've been so easy. It's free money.

This applies to any game stuck on shitty consoles from a decade ago. Why was the Professor Layton series never ported to modern machines for example, it would be perfect on PC with a mouse. Or on Switch with the touch screen. Port the games on PS and Xbox too, let people play with a controller, who gives a shit it's not an action game.
They would sell MILLIONS in an instant.

I hate Japanese publishers, why are they so retarded.

no matter how bad you think things are, there's always something worse.

Would bagel juice. Also would nargacuga and rathian

>>695344667
4U is my personal favorite but I really liked Iceborne too.

>>695344739
I would've liked it had it not ran absolute shit

>>695380815
FU and the portable entries made the controls functional, you know as in.. actual quality of life changes

>>695373707
