after the dust has settled I think we can all agree this was the pinnacle of the series
The peak is always before the fall
>>726094551First low point with Wilds being the second is the best I can give you.
I'm still playing itGot my first and second Attack Jewel+ 4 yesterday after 1034 hours
>>726094551I had so much fun with World. Spent 600 hours just doing everything. There's a comfyness in throwing hands with a monster you know and love.
>>726094551best monhun because it was the first one to be released on pc
>>726094886Why is every screenshot of World so cinematic?
I miss this fucker.
Bros, is starting with GS dumb? Because I heard there's a massive wall of difficulty when you finish the story...and I don't wanna get filtered because I'm standing there, charging up my swings like a clueless retard
Reminder.
I like the more arcadey gameplay of Rise a lot more.
>>726095013by the time you reach the wall of difficulty, you should be good enough to keep using GSonly terrible matchup is rajang
>>726094551I can't blast dash with my gunlance in this one, so no
>>726095026legitimately kill yourself
>>726095060
>>726094979That thing come by my house i'd kill it
>>726095013well it's a slow weapon and monsters get pretty fast, so you can have troubles with that. but it's just a get gud problem. if you like GS just play with it, it's not like it will be that much easier with other weapons
>>726095026>>726095125you guys play with other people?
>>726095060Rise would be perfect if it wasn't for the damn spiribug hunt
I honestly forgot rise even existed. In my head it was world then wilds
>>726094551I once considered this my favorite game. Good times.
>>726095204I've been using a Mushroomancer/Wide-Range build latelyGiving all your teammates +17 raw attack makes fights go much quicker
>>726095013no just start with whatever you want
>>726094551>we can all agree this was the downfall of the seriesfixed
>>726094551Frontier was the peak but world needed to have more than one expansion
casualized and normie-friendly piece of shit
>>726095398>>726095083>>726095145Thanks anons. Though I think I'll play it safe and use baby weapons made for retards like me.
What the fuck were they thinking with Iceborne? Worlds was my first MH, it was fun, it was kino and then I start playing the expansion and everything turns into dogshit
the only people who don't like mhw are autists who emulate old mh games and seethe from claw even thought it is objectively a good change in the gameplay - since they are autistic, any change in their routine causes them mental anguish like when their caretaker wears a shirt of a different color
>>726095629it's just more monsters, what exactly you didn't like?
>>726095629>Worlds>absolutely retarded opinionevery time
I can like world and also hate the claw
>>726095678Hunts take way way too long, monsters have bloated health pools while the map is harder to traverse. It also suffers from Elder ring syndrome where they make attack chains way too long and force you to dodge forever before you get one or two swings in
>>726095635Not really, the claw is just a band aid solution to the hp bloat problem most monsters have in iceborneThe slinger was a objectively the better mechanic
>>726094551MH4U was the peak though.
>>726095546let's see your rarity 1 gear no hit iceborne runfaggot.
>>726095803>Hunts take way way too longSounds like a skilll issueHunts scale with gear20-30 mins average when you start off but falls to 10 when you git gud
i liked both worldborne and risebreakand i never understood the animosity fans of one game had over the otherthey both had their own flaws and meritswilds is dog im sure most people can agree on
>>726095235Use the mod. If you're installing jerk-off material, you can easily find the spiritbird mod.
>SlingerDo I naturally learn what this thing is for? Because right now its inclusion + burst short seems mechanically pointless.
>>726096143It's just mostly petty console wars bullshit like always
>>726095789i love the clawi also love fighting other hunters over who gets to wallbang>>726096152i'm not using mods, these are just coomer webms i picked up in /mhg/i mainly play on ps4
>>726096143Rise on launch got latched onto by fake oldschool fags pretending it's just like FU for some reason. They got real quiet when it turned out to be even easier than base World
>>726095803Are you using the clutch claw?
>>726096110>Hunts scale with gearAnd in IB they scale way way worse... Mammoth had what? Three or four times the health while IB weapons aren't much of an upgrade? Only way to get weapons that made you feel like you were making progress was by killing event bosses at the arena which is just boring as hell
>>726096509The bloated health pools are a non-issueIf you haven't learned to wallbang at that point, that's on you I spent the whole 50 mins and two carts soloing Shara Ishvalda simply because I ignored the mechanic
>>726097078The point is that wallbanging and tenderising shouldn't be near mandatory for acceptable times.
>>726097880why not though?they're just more tools in your arsenal for taking down a monsteryou're complaining about having more shit to do.
>>726098042>you're complaining about having more shit to do.On the contrary, it's a centralising mechanic with very little that can interrupt or prevent it promoting spamming. It also doesn't help that tenderising can spawn launcher ammo for wallbanging.
>>726096143I like all three. And to answer your question, I suspect it's just easy bait probably pushed around by people who don't even play any MH. Just like how most Console Warring is pushed by IDORTS.
>>726098312>Just like how most Console Warring is pushed by IDORTS.No
>shitty mid-range laptop that by all accounts shouldn't be able to play wilds>lossless scaling>all high settings when applicable>high decompressed textures>finally able to play wilds at fidelity greater than play-doh and acceptable enough fake consistent 60 fps to satisfy my autism>suddenly go from cautious engagement to being unable to put the game downGiven I'm just playing casually. Barely into high rank and all I've done since is roam around genociding Gravios and Gypceros but it's actually beginning to grip me. I cannot stop hunting shit. Beginning to hate the game less and hate Capcom even more for dropping the ball on a game I'm becoming increasingly convinced deserved better. Do I have brain damage?
i dont recognize this website anymore, i cant imagine the average age posters here now being over the age of 18 from shit like this being posted every day, surely you're all just children and this was the first game you played in the series.
Mix World and Rise design philosophies.There, I saved the series
>>726098668nope niggas are autistic and just hate the game because its not the same. look at all the hate rise got for not being world 2
>>726095083huh? draw gs is peak against rajang. it's my only weapon against him/furious. (after being a hammer main.. against a mon which won't let you charge)
>>726094551Its alright
>>726094551>the pinnacle of the series>is the cause of everything that's currently wrong with the series
>>726094551>we can all agree this was the pinnacle of the seriesWe can't. Because that's a popular opinion and we need to be contrarians.
>>726098745That’s just Wilds nigga.
>>726095013I had a terrible time with GS, so many other weapons are more fun AND more effective, but at the same time GS is my most played weapon so....idk, it has a steep learning curve I guess, tackles are very strong, my game changed when I started using them more
>>726099906>removed MHR's best feature (switch skills)No it's not.
>>726095635>objectively a good change in the gameplay>turned every fight in the same flowchart >wasn't even well implemented on most weaponsCrutch claw didnt solve any problem and only created more. This thing exist because mainline devs are creatively bankrupt.
>>726094551>Babies first monstie>Basically started everything thats wrong with the series now>endlessly complained about the improvements made in rise5th fleeters need to die, peak obnoxious and ignorant, 4U is still the peak followed closely by GU.
>>726098668>Do I have brain damage?No, in fact I’d say the brainworms are shriveling up somewhat. Next step is realizing that actually Wilds’ base game is way better than World’s ever was and that the game isn’t in any worse state than World was at release. Oh, you should have seen the rage in the MH threads when world released, you can see posts saying it killed the franchise to this day made by people utterly unable to let go.2-3 years from now we’ll be having threads about how Wilds is actually the best game in the franchise.
>>726100114Got me there I guess, I did love personalizing my moveset in that game.
>>726095026>>726095204You guys haven’t memorized every attack in your moveset that can’t get flinched by teammates?
>>726095374What are the pros over simply spamming demon powders?
>>726095629>>726095803You are entitled to your own opinion, but most old gen vets (including me yes) thought that world’s base game was very lackluster with Iceborne fixing most problems, foremost among them was a lack of HP. It was common perception back then that World’s monsters would keel over from just a mean look, as in tempered Teo dying in like ~8 min.I really do not agree with the wombo-combo argument. You aren’t fighting Primordial Malzeno or anything like that. Arkveld and Steve are way more combo-y than anything in world.
>>726101112you have instant access to max potion dash juice and demondrugs without crafting
>>726094551I am currently 40 real life hours into a Monster Hunter Dos playthrough and 20 hours of my life has been spent playing the mushroom gathering mission on repeat to farm zenny and materials on 300% emulator speed Also I have to constantly check gamefaqs threads from 15 years ago to figure out things that are never explained like where to find serpent salmon or rathian plates or what the status up skill does Just in case this ever fucking helps someone -- i just figured out I can wear ioprey armor to give myself a bonus to inflict poison and stun. After like 2 hours of wiki sleuthing, that armor set seemed the least painful to farm for l, while still giving status up My two go to weapons are the jail hammer that stuns and the princess rapier that poisons
>>726105524Max potions don’t work with Wide Range do they?Even so, it’s not like you have to open the menu to craft mid fight anymore anyways. It’s not that Mushroomancer is bad, it’s more like I can replicate it’s effects without it and the pouch has more than enough space to carry all the extra crafting stuff.
>>726094551Yes bro, that's peak right there
=>>726106067max potions don't affect wide range, it's just nice having 10 mandragoras to pop at a moment's notice.dash juice is pretty useful but a bitch to craft outside of melding and devil's blight solves thattoadstools while not as useful is still a nice buff to have.Mushroomancer is basically Attack Boost 2 (7 if stacked with might seeds and demon powders) + Constitution 1 + Stamina Surge 1 and Recovery Up 1 - incredibly high value skill.
>>726096152I just never bothered gathering more than what was ahead of me while going to the target. Why do fags insist that having the spirit birds stat buff is mandatory?
>>726094551I wouldn't say it was the "pinnacle" but I will say it was pretty fuckin' good
>>726107019cause their dps builds are so weak they die from farts in their direction otherwise
>>726094551>>726094814>>726094849>>726094886The worst thing to happen to the IP, it also brought a bunch of retarded newfags like you. It's so "peak" people no longer talk about it, no one will remember it fondly, it will always be remembered as the casual game that killed the Monster Hunter. More importantly, it's not that fun compared to the older entries so why even bother with it.
>be me>like switch axe>everybody uses weebsword, horn, or hammerI just think they're neat.
>>726107190world was the first game where elders had actual aura while not being complete garbage fights, it's gonna be legendary. No, 4U gogmazios doesn't count as a good fight even remotely. Obviously dire and yama aren't either.
>>726107234They're neat, but SA is on a weaker side in World and Wilds. Sunbreak's SA is top tier though.
>>726107342They're too afraid to add a real axe because it would compete with hammer and weebsword.
World is by far the worst game in the series and its not even close. World was the team being pushed by Capcom execs to make a game that was as little monster hunter as possible to chase western trend. There is not a single element in World that came from a good intention to experiment or make something fun. It is one of the most boring video games I have ever played and its the worst game in the franchise.Wilds is a deeply flawed game but its an actual fucking Monster Hunter game, with actual MH lore, actual MH designs, characters, weapon designs, music, etc. I'll take every single MH game from now on being like Wilds as long as it means we don't get another World.
Fuck worldsperm
>>726108112MH2 DOS shows up in every tier list but no one ever plays it I mean I have but I advise people not to. The grinding is insane.
>>726108454Dos is amazing cause its such a huge feeling game with so much mystery on ur first playthrough, and even following ones. FU has even more content since its higher, but still, both are peak.
>>726108591If you are a real nigga who's played DOs give me a weapon recommendation right now because it takes me 40 minutes to hill a hermataur with my princess rapier
>>726108641hammer or hbg, both have insane damage and cleave through monsters.GS/dual blades for elders since its easier to wack them with those than hammer in my humble opinion.what specific weapon doesn't really matter, just highest attack+sharpness in those classes you have access to.
>>726108591there's nothing to see in dos besides higher res textures and better hitboxes when going from FU.
>>726108726Hmmm okay... What about armor? What arethe best armor sets to grind for? And Is it worth going for weapons that inflict statuses Any easy zenny farming methods you know of
>>726108929just play the game ya faggot
>>726109354>spend 10 hours farming mats for a specific build just to discover the 20 year old gamefaqs entry you were looking at was mistranslatedK
>>726095235Why? Are you saying you can't handle the supposedly easiest hunts in the entire franchise with the regular 150 HP?
>>726096143The animosity between MHW and MHR is extremely one-sided.
