So I downloaded the demo for this. Is this game seriously only selecting a monster from the title screen, spawning in a camp, taking stuff out of a chest and sprinting to where it is on the map?
>>343607675
The demo? Yes.
>>343607675
youtube is your friend
Yes, the full game is literally the exact same as a very limited demo of the game.
>>343607887
So what's the actual game like? The combat is nice (albeit that I'm getting frustrated with all the movement locking), but in the demo there's pretty much no semblance of a world or people to talk to.
>>343607675
Is it really that hard to research things? Like to type "Monster hunter gameplay" into youtube and search around?
You will easily find that what you're thinking is not the case and just a thing with the demo.
>>343607675
monster hunter has never been story focused. you select missions, travel to where the monster is located and slay it.
the reason this works so well is because of how much effort is put into the combat.
>>343607675
It's a demo, not the full game, what do you expect?Also Monster Hunter Thread
Do dual blades get their extra sharpness back in this one?
>>343608039
You have an actual hub in the main game, with several towns to go around. You'll do armor/weapon crafting here and shit too.
>>343608045
Literally endless videos of combat
>>343608039
There is a hub where you can walk around but the NPCs are pretty meaningless. You get quests and go out and hunt
Using parts from the shit you kill you make better armor and weapons and hunt even more monsters.

Yeah, I'd say the best part of a series called Monster Hunter is the in depth dialogue and morality system. All the human NPC's have rich backstories and routines on par with Oblivion. It's really something to behold.You fucking idiot.
>>343608039
The full game is still mission-selection-based, but there's also towns, NPCs, some barebones story that doesn't matter, and lots of preparation and crafting of both items and equipment. In the real game the monster isn't shown automatically on the map and you have to find it, and you also have to gather natural resources as you hunt.
But the vast bulk of the game is indeed running to the monster and killing it.
I want to make love to Maccau's feet.Want him to stomp on me.
I want to feel his feet on my crotch.
The weight of him atop me
His drooling maw over my head as he pleasures me with his foot
>>343608136
And that's the game in it's entirety. The only thing you do outside of combat is craft weapons, armor, and supplies to kill more things
>>343608161
Zinogre, because I've memorized him to the point of getting over 10 perfect runs.
LS, because I need the mobility. I play solo for the most part anyways
>>343607675
No, the real game is searching for the monster and you dont start off with decent gear and items in your inventory.
Malfestio gives me aids, way more of a pain than Nargacuga even though it flies away every 3 minutes.
Hey, OP. I'll answer your question, because what good would this board be if every question was addressed with "do your research elsewhere"?
In the Monster Hunter games you start in a town, traditionally the only one in the game (this has changed with recent entries), which serves as the general quest/supplies hub. From this town you receive and take on hunting missions. The missions play very much like they do in the demo. The key difference is the gradual progression of your character through the ranks, the accumulation of materials for armor/weapon construction and crafting, and generally honing a seasoned, calculated hunting strategy. The demo cannot give an accurate impression of this growth arc.
It's not an adventure game. It's not an RPG with dungeons or an overworld. There's a hub, and isolated regional maps in which you embark on your hunts. I found this jarring at first myself, and it took me several years to come to appreciate the real strengths of the game.
>>343608261
Though you can get it to show on the map from the beginning using items or skills.

>>343608603
Confusion is just a reversal of movement controls. Not like it makes you run around at random or interfere with your attacking in any way. Pretty simple to work around in my opinion.

Except now with Aerial Insect Glaive I might be doing it a LOT because the pole vault is super fast, and they buffed the mounting resistance a lot so I don't have to worry about that shit.
Also why am I having such a hard time getting juices from Malefisto, I'm assuming red comes from the head since that's the norm but where the shit does orange juice come from

Trying to relearn memeblade is taking some effort.
The 4U one became so natural after killing a billion Teostras that my muscle memory keeps fucking me up.
>>343610769
While on this topic, how's MHG for solo? 4U was pretty ridiculous in the last few quests with apex bullshit, but still very doable.
I know that rewards for hunting deviants are more consistent than guild quests, but are the deviants on the highest levels soloable in reasonable amount of time?
>>343611240
Generations doesn't have Apex, so there's that
>>343611240
Almost all of LR is gathering/cat quests.
You won't have any fun until HR.
I've been trying it out, played 3 on and off, been big into 4, but right now I'm not sure what I think of Gen. The subsets on the weapons seems interesting, but alot of it seems tacked on, and moving with Aerial feels off to me, especially Long Sword, though I mainly used it on Malfestio (which I enjoyed the least out of all what was available in the demo, just because I hate dealing with status stuff.)
Same with the special moves. Activating it on the touch screen makes properly aiming them harder than they should be.
Also, I don't usually care about FOV, but the camera just seems way too zoomed in compared to 4, I don't feel I'm seeing as much as I should.
>>343611240

Your fov is 20% less than MH4U, it's very zoomed in that it's distracting. Doesn't help that this game is 30 fps as opposed to MH4u buttery smooth 60fps.
>>343611427
>>343611494
I don't really get how it's related to deviants - collectibles like flowers are traded for tickets?
>>343608136
The fuck else do you want? It's a video game. Are you looking for tutorials?
>>343611587
>MH4u buttery smooth 60fps
Not even N3DS could run 4U stably above 45 fps during gameplay.
>>343611901
Not that guy but about half the game is gathering quests. So if you don't jump online straight away to hunt that's what you'll be doing in the villages most of the time
>>343612158
But gathering hall quests could be done solo in the past, is there a change now?Do people really like to be carried that much?
>>343609440

>>343610440
Bows are just not good enough in the short and long run. Too little damage, can't bring enough coatings and shot type is limited to three, if not less per bow.
But I consider actual shit to be the LBG with its atrocious ammo dumpingAnd this depresses me because they're both fun to use
>>343608039
a big part of the appeal is making your armorsets and weapons, which often times means hunting the same monster more than once, but the hunting is so deep that ends up being a good thing. hence people dumping upwards of 500 hours on these games

Monhun is kinda shallow, it is what you see. It's best not to get associated with online play either unless you like cancerous fanbases.
>>343607675
You start in a hub with some shitty armor on your back, a basic version of each weapon type in your chest, and nothing else. The 'tutorial' phase of the game apart from getting used to the controls is essentially establishing a collection of useful materials and killing small fry before taking on some rather easy large monsters, learning how to capture, and upgrading some facilities you can use in the village for buffs in quests and automating collection of some materials.
After some time, you then do less gathering and more hunting for materials in a never-ending cycle of improving your collection of hunting equipment so shit dies faster. And you'll love it.
>>343612860
Not neccisarily. Mount tolerances are definitely up but staggers depend on the monster.
For example, Astalos get staggered if you even look at him funny while he's charged, it's really disappointing.

I like Aerial GS because I'm bad at aiming, I don't exactly know what Adept GS loses (aside from 1 Hunter art), but the Earplugs 2 + Evasion 2 is great and the follow-up from a perfect dodge is a super fast charge attack.
>>343616103
For me it's more if the Aerial style provides a decent gimmick. Aerial GS and IG can score hits really well so the style compliments those weapons.
I had a lot of trouble with Aerial Hammer though as it didn't really get anything interesting.
>>343616103
You also have to consider the different monsters to be faced. The ones in the demo are kinda midsized and mobile, aerial really shines on bigger shit like Gammoth, Akantor, and stuff that flies/hovers like the raths

Monster Hunter is one of the most content rich series out there, (in terms of items, stats and customisation).
Yes the meat of the game is in what you do in the demo but there's a lot more outside of just hunting the monsters (majority of it is gaining shit so you can hunt even bigger monsters).
I personally wasn't a big fan of the generations demo, I think i'll stick with 4U.

Gunlance is unironically more disruptive than longsword at this point. Longsword has multiple ways to increase spirit without using the full spirit combo, while gunlance now has to spam full burst and use wyvernfire every time it's off cooldown to get anything done

I'm not sure you know what either of those words mean.
>>343617108
Speedrunners probably don't like it since they can already reliably dodge attacks and manipulate monsters, and the elaborate dodge animation wastes precious seconds
And if you get too used to having it on non-guard weapons you'll get ruined once you try anything else and find your roll isn't working the same
It's like they took that old meme of evasion+1/2 being a crutch and made it into a gameplay mechanic
>>343617368
>tfw I keep thinking Adept Style means "cancel your animation and dodge"
boy could you imagine
>>343616859
I think Guild Style IG is stronger than Adept IG. Not being able to call the insect back is tough. Then again, I'm not a Japanese speedrunner so what do I know.
>>343617286
>tfw you're the wrong kind of autist
Why do i always end up wanting to explore the world and lore and stuff of games that arent meant for that
>>343617286
Damn, two buzzwords back to back.
That really shows the type of person you are.
>>343617605
Some weapons it offers nothing but advantages. Like bow. With bow you were already going to dodge here and there, losing backhop is nothing to gaining a free level 3 charge that takes 1/2 the time it would have if you just dodged manually and charged it like 4u.
>>343617706
I'm hoping that Stories can cover that ground more.
But don't clutter up the main game with those things.
Just have nice locales to look at and say "that's pretty" then go back to hitting the big thing trying to kill you.
>>343617763
Like LS. Being able to increase your gauge with 3 fast slashes? Sign me up man.
>>343617108
>Wouldn't he have a shitload more openings to exploit?
Whatever the case is, Striker seems to be the preferred style for many weapons (even GS/LS/DB) against Gold Ziggy in TA except for Gunner weapons, which get hilariously bad times compared to other weapons due to a shortage of ammo.
>>343617605
Makes sense,at least to speedrunners.
Those are really snazzy armour sets by the way, 8/10 would hunt in.
>And if you get too used to having it on non-guard weapons you'll get ruined once you try anything else and find your roll isn't working the same
Damn that's right, I should probably start learning how to play the game again.
>>343617918
>except for Gunner weapons, which get hilariously bad times compared to other weapons due to a shortage of ammo.
Poor gunners.
>>343609004
When I got into monster Hunter people where Nice and friendly. This is what the surge in popularity from the last game has done with the community.
>>343617918
>due to a shortage of ammo
what? Did they remove the ability to combine for more ammo or does it actually take that long to kill him?
>>343617834
Yeah exactly. 4U had kind of a cool thing going with having some semblance of a story too it but I can easily see that mentality going overboard (like in 4u's HR caravan, that climax was disappointing as all fuck, scripted out the ass)
I welcome spinoffs for that very reason. I hope we get stories or even just more supplemental materials that arent trash. Part of me wants to actually learn moon to read some of the novels and mangas and stuff. I'm sure they're generic but anything is probably better than Orage.
>>343617431
Autism really helps with monster hunter though. But I don't see how entitled fits the picture
>owl is intermediate while narga is advanced
>not the other way around
This is some sort of mistake right? No freaking way they thought the owl is easier to deal with than the narga monster.

>>343618321
You know Narga from the previous games so He's easier to you, while the owl is completely new to you. Think before you post.
>>343618321
Narga has always been considered one of the higher level monsters even though he's a complete shitter.
>>343618383
Anything but ranged, anything but ranged.
>>343618321
They're both mid-tier monsters.
If you've ever dealt with flipped controls the owl is a nonissue.
Unleas you're playing with cats and their putting priority on curing you of status. Fuck.

>>343618321
>narga in FU is considered a flagship on par with tigrex
>as of X it's considered a mid tier shitter like rathian or zamtrios
Funny enough, malfestio(?) is actually on the same quest tier as nargacuga in the full game, as another mid tier monster.
>>343618549I'll hunt with you in a regular room anon.

>Adept gets kind of wonky combos and their kinsect can only be sent out once with no redirections
>perfect dodge attacks however send out the kinsect at the same time
How could you even play Guild style IG
>>343618682
First of all, I don't use just one weapon/style. And second, no, it's most definitely more fun than having to use the weapons I don't find fun to play.
>>343618735
It at least kinda makes sense for gunners.
Its retarded asymmetry on blademaster sets that get me. Like the regular zinogre gear looks like its mashed together from 3 different armour designs.
>>343618820
By wanting your roll to not be complete ass
>>343618549
>The only time this will ever truly be viable as a room style is the time you pick to complain about it
You fucking baby. Demo's are perfect for this shit, not everyone keeps a weapon of every type let alone the gear for it.
>>343617763
You're forgetting the double backhop into fully charged lvl3.
Guild is actually faster than adept for Bow TA because the backhop charge can be done all the time while adept bow specifically requires running into an attack to get it which won't be synced up all the time.
>>343619000
>not everyone keeps a weapon of every type let alone the gear for it.
Hold up, you mean there's people that don't hoard random stuff they built on a whim?
>>343618383
Anything but Hunting horn please
>>343619139
Then why all the best kill times with the bow in MHX use bushido?
>>343617108
Yeah, you can dodge through roars, wind currents, ranged attacks and basically everything else with no effort....then take 10 minutes to come back and attack the monster. Really great, man.
>>343619497
Shitters who can't git gud and rely on cheese tactics to get anything decent. The only reason Bushido has good times is because all the bow users are fags who can't use anything else.
Anyone wanna play?

Don't even know if the room will get people.
So pick any weapon/style you want.a cat is fine too

Hunting Horn.

Whichever you like the most.
>>343619748
>not found
Is it full already?
>>343619571
But it takes like a second anon, at best 2-3.
Unless you're trying to do a speedrun there is basically no downside,not counting some weapons annoying moves at the end of the dodge.
Maybe try not dodging away from the monster?
>>343617387
Go back to sharpening your weapon and killing the same dinosaur for the billionth time, assburger.
>>343608161
Duramboros, Zinogre, Gore
Glaive, Great Sword, Horn
>>343619952
>Maybe try not dodging away from the monster?
Good idea. Now that i'm adept running straight to it, i will hit it clean....oh, it jumped away and i'm still forced to run in this direction or attack to stop myself.
What do you mean with "the guys who actually dodged it are on its ass constantly"? What does "constantly" mean?
Narga, Do what you want if you like.

Damn guys, good shit. We finished it pretty clean. Sorry if I messed up any of you as SA.

>Reach G rank in MH4U
>Switch to Hammer from IG and Bow
>Hunts suddenly take a whole shitload of time
>Time out to White Monoblos and Rathalos
How do I up my Hammer game?
>>343608862
It's a shame GL's damage output is poor, but I'm having a lot of fun with Aerial GL. The jump dash forward which replaces the backhop gives a lot of mobility for GL users so you can easily use it to reposition or dodge enemy attacks. You lose the forward charge + shell that you can do while blocking (R + A + forward) but in return the jump dash also works while blocking so right after blocking you can jumped straight into the enemy in front of you.
In the air you can even shell first to hover in the air a little in case it isn't safe to land and follow up with a slam which goes into Full Burst. Shit's plenty fun.
How good is Aerial SnS compared to the other Styles?
>>343621165
hit the head, dodge like a motherfucker, teostra is your worst enemy
>3U, used Dual Sword
>4U, used Insect Glaive
Aerial might draw me back to DS, but I might go with Sword and Shield now
But how hard is to get into Heavy Gun or Bow?
Is it just me or does SA feel like it does a lot more damage than it did in MH4U. It feels on par with its 3U counterpart.
>>343621304
>teostra is your worst enemy
Nah, not really. At least until high lvl GQs.
Since I only played 4U I never fought a Nargacuga before. Can I cut its tail off?
>>343621165
>>Time out to White Monoblos
Yeah, he is a fucking HP sponge alright, just hope you were not hitting his head.
>>343621382
SA is quite broken in Generations. Especially because of the hunter arts, but I think its motion values got buffed too.
>>343621464
Yes but just the tip
>>343621464
Yeah. You need to break it first, and it can only be actually cut when it's enraged.
>>343621347
All it takes to understand Bow is to learn critical distance and get to the point where you instinctively stay there. Super simple otherwise.
>>343621485
I feels like it, I mean Demon Trance with Trance Slash seems like it can do retarded damage if you hit the monster with its long ass animation.
>>343621382
Arguably the best arts in the game, Sword mode is fucking godly. You never have to drop it and it gets 30% affinity with an art.
Its super good in every way.
>>343621467
>W.Mono fight
>bring Desert Rose
EZ
>>343621520
>>343621545
Come to think of it, I haven't seen Nargacuga's tail get cut off a single time in the demo yet and I've fought it like 20 times.
Has anyone seen it happen?
>>343621625
I've done it, takes a lot to cut it in the demo
Should I finish the first 3ds MH before getting this, or do you think I might get burnt out?
I feel bad having not played it now that the new one is coming out
>>343621625
yea, it takes a lot of hits but you can do it if you focus enough on it. bring an LS bro to the fight
>>343621573
No, no, no. Trance Slash is shit.
Here's how it's done, Demon Trance gives you "infinite" sword mode energy, which depletes over time, not with every attack. And there's another art that lets you fully recharge your phial.
Both of those give your sword mode huge attack/affinity boosts as well. And the second art charges stupidly fast, so you basically never run out of super sword mode.
If SA was ironically called Reload Sword in the past, now it needn't be even reloaded anymore. Say goodbye to the axe mode.
>>343621583
>>343621485
SO whats the best style for SA? Guild or Striker?
>>343621748
Striker gives CB's axe mode extra 5% attack power, dunno if it's the same for SA's sword mode. But with Striker you also get a free absolute evasion with sharpening. I don't think it loses anything important.
>>343621347
What sadpanda is this?
>>343621745
That makes a lot of sense, can't wait to get back into SA in Gen.
>>343621748
Striker in most cases, faster art charge, more damage in axe mode(lol) and another art with your sword buffs for funzies.
SA was always a favorite of mine, they made me pretty happy with this game.
>>343621881
I don't know, just saved it the other day, and for the format alone I guess it's actually a LN, not a doujin
>>343621467
I wasn't actually
So wait, styles actually matter with the kind of weapon you use?
Lets' say I use IG or DS, what style would be better?
Would aerial work great with LS? Might be cool

The gameplay is the best part of the game and they let you use a bunch of different weapons, armors, items, styles, and hunter arts to fight three fairly unique monsters. Online, no less. With tutorials to help new people get started as well.
But no, you're right. The demo should have just been going around town talking to poorly-localized NPCs and petting animals.

Maccao is cute. CUTE!
>>343638062
Yeah it's especially adorable when I pound his face in with a fully charged hammer swing, or when I golf swing him onto his ass when he's doing his gay tail bounce shit.

It never gets better.
Have fun collecting 100 gorilla pubic hair in a game that is the CoD of Japan and praised by autistic neckbeards in America

Can you change the size of the hud in the full game? Its fucking huge in the demo.
>>343638704
No. You can put it on the bottom screen though. Its tiny as shit on there.

If you don't enjoy just hunting monsters I've a feeling you won't enjoy monster hunter
I've never understood what people see in Monster Hunter.
Take one part korean mmo, one part stiff controls tied to a handheld with one analogue control and you get something that feels really bad to play.
Is Generations just Monster Hunter 4 Super Ultimate Edition?
As in is the base game still effectively the same as before?

Bushido LS is freaking great
>>343639397
Pretty much. Think I would rather play a Korean MMO to begin with since there would be more shit to do

If you mean in the same relation as mh4 to mh4u or mhtri to mh3u, no.
Different villages, different 'story', whatever little there is of it. Also, new monsters, lots of old monsters coming back, styles art, lots of shit.
