>Now that MH wilds is dogshit
How?
I thought it was the most popular monhun ever?

>>713865583
eh everyone told me it was dogshit

>>713865735

>>713865471 (OP)
My understanding is both Worldd and Rise are 'okay'
Rise is more on the anime side of shit ue to the switch skills and more overall gameplay
World is supposed to be more toned down
I personally still play Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on PSP (emulated of course)

>>713865735
like 98% of the playerbase dropped it.

>>713865805
Yeah but I'm not necessarily well versed in the series. Should I watch out for something? Or what is considered roughly your favorite game which is in your case freddom unite. I've just seen alot of oldfags complain about worlds and rise in terms of its casualization. I'm also disenfranchised because it seems that everytime I get into something new, god comes along and fucks up the latest entry irreparably.I just got into persona and I hope p6 isn't dogshit

Play MHFU if you want a pure classic experience. Play Tri if you want a really tightly balanced game. Play MH3U if you want classic+underwater experience. Play MH4U if you want a really impressive roster of monsters. Play MHGU if you have played all the others and want more experimental ways to hunt monsters.

Play Rise if you really liked the MHGU extra combat styles.

Play World if you want unskippable cutscenes, a great base game, but a very divisive expansion due to mechanic changes.

>>713865737
>>713865583
It is fucking dogshit. The last half completely shits its self with retcons, plot holes, and loose threads to such a ridiculously degree. Fights are contrived auto stand shit. Final villain is a literally who character and worst main jojo villian . It’s the only jojo part that I would consider actually bad which is crazy since its right after arguably the best part. Just a huge waste araki’s talents. A mystery part just does not pertain to his writing style

>>713866220
Morioh is Araki's kryptonite. Two parts set in that shithole and both of them meander with no direction for too long.

>>713865471 (OP)
>>713865583
It was good until Damo, from them on it varies wildly on quality until the end, which is complete shit.

world is 10 bucks on steam right now

>>713866085
Basically the pre-World series was a bit more grounded in terms of how the gameplay went
It was basically 'find monster, tag it with a paintball to see it on the map, fight monster' It was a very strict dodge/block movement for defense and much slower overall and each monster had its own area or level and was fairly small
World sort of changed it with the idea being it more casual (not a bad thing), like your weapon has to be sharpened, before you had to carry whetstones and they could run out, here you get an infinite use one, before when you used some items like potions mainly, you'd do a pose afterwards and coldn't move, here you can walk, completely different (again easier imo) skill system (buffs to your character, not actionable skills)
Monsters can and will fight one another if one wanders into their area
Fast travel on the map, the slinger (grappling hook) to add easier verticality

World has a demo, actually
Try it. You will get your shit pushed in, a lot. Just keep at it and try different weaposn, even look up this fags videos after you find a weapon you like

Is Jojolion finished yet? Can I start reading it yet?

>>713866672
It's been done for like 5 years dude

>>713866651
So is pre worlds worth playing though?

>>713867065
Eh
Not really, no
I wouldn't recommend any of them since they really are very beginner unfriendly
Try worlds demo and see how you get on

>>713866786
Huh no shit time to start reading I guess.

>>713865471 (OP)
Emulate P3rd

>>713867143
Damn that sucks

>>713867143
I will be honest and probably should have said this but I have played rise with its anime paced gameplay though.

>>713867223
World just did too much good stuff imo compared to MHFU

The othe rmajor issues is that since they're on the PSP/3DS they both suck balls in terms of actual good shit

You could try the generations one on Switch if you can emulate it has a lot of old mechanics and isn't too beginner unfriendly

>>713867495
Might emulate the fu one just for curiosities sake. Although you would think it would be a nobrainer to put alot of elements in previous games like monsters fighting eachother

>>713865471 (OP)
Play mh Dos to have a stroke vs cephadrome.

>>713865583
jojolion is poop

Freedom Unite is really clunky to go back to, I dunno why these guys are recommending it. It was good for the time but 4U or GU would be better to jump into if they're options, and of course there's World and Rise.

>>713869451
I didn't recommend it. Just said it's what I play
I specifically said not to play it

>>713865583

I did, one volume a day. It's a fucking mess.

>>713865471 (OP)
4 Ultimate was my first MH game and I was hooked, still fundamentally classic but most of the really obtuse stuff was ironed out by that point, so I recommend that. If you just want content then Generations Ultimate is the way to go, it's easily got the most and it's still basically classic era but there's a lot of tacked on stuff that makes it baby mode easy and that can make it kind of boring at times.

World is there if you only started playing games with the PS4 era. It is very casualized, to the point where it's a fundamentally different experience from what came before, but it's still good.

I really liked the arcadey grind of base game Rise once I finally sat down and played through it. Apparently it's one of the least liked ones though so idk what you'd get your fix on really.

>>713877861
Wild Hearts then.

>>713866361
>both of them meander with no direction
everything in part 4 is literally tossing the ball to a new character who tosses it to the next until all of a sudden the 'main plot' is happening. its ONE direction, you just dont realize it at first or you dont pay attention

>>713865471 (OP)
MHGU, MG4U, Iceborne with the ICE community mod

>>713878091
I hope they make a sequel. I actually liked Wild Hearts despite its issues.

>>713868669
jojolion starts falling off as soon as not-rohan shows up, which is directly after vitamin c and milagro man, about the halfway point

>>713879189
This is why part 9 is saved by having Not-Rohan-but-actually-Rohan-for-real appear.

>>713865583
JoJolion is either amazing or fucking dogshit
Storytime proved it
>Jojolion 7su fangame when?
I've been thinking of making a JoJolion rpg to try and fix the story but i don't know how to. I've planned a bunch of stuff for it but i doubt i'll ever make it

>>713865583
I like it well enough but it really shits the bed towards the end. For me the point where it's all downhill is when Wonder of U starts throwing out insects, and then it ends up leaving so much stuff on the table instead of giving a sense of closure that it feels worse retroactively too.

>>713866595
yeah I gotta agree with this anon, it shits the bed after Vitamin C

>>713865471 (OP)
I like MH4U

>>713879342
>JoJolion is either amazing or fucking dogshit
Depending on the arc

Rise.

>>713878962
It was slice of life for a while, which is fine. The point was those stories were interesting and fun.

Jojolands is also pretty bad. wtf happened to Araki?

>>713866595
This meme and all the other ones of "first half of Jojolion is peak Jojo" were totally debunked in the storytimes in /a/ where people read it daily and unlike >>713865583 said we all realized how fucking dogshit it was from the fucking beggining, very little cool moments/interactions and even FIGHTS which is one of the main fucking selling points. What a dogshit part and everyone that defends it is a contrarian and or unironically clinically retarded

>>713880937
Age is getting to him.

>>713865583
Jojolion has the great honor to have dethroned Stone Ocean in terms of shittiness. Jojolion is a legitimate 2/10.

>>713865471 (OP)
3U

>>713880989
it's fucking baffling reading it in the archives compared to all other parts how little hype moments it actually has. Literally all style over ANY substance. Completely carried by memes and headcanons.
I'll give it having some of the most interesting characters in Jojo to date with Jobin, the only fucking redeeming part of this dogshit and he is STILL written like shit. Just the concept of a kid fucked over by fate and groomed by his psycho mother with a childish personality and a shitty stand with great potential applications and development (of course, they never go anywhere)

>>713880937
When mangaka are no longer told "no" they do any idea that pops into their head whether it's good or bad.

>>713880937
Jojolands is miles better than Jojolion and has great character dynamics, much better already than the ones in part 6 for example. It still needs time to grow on us but the fights (except maybe wild cats that was pretty simple and straight forward) are all fenomenal. That last chapter with Paco beating the shit out of that ugly bastard was hype as fuck

>>713866672
Nigga we're literally like a quarter through part 9 already

>>713879293
I mean, not really, the consensus is that the Rohan and subsequent cat fights are the worst bits in jojolands and the part goes uphill right afterwards

>30 fps
>All monsters are shit
>PS3 graphics

What am I looking at?

Tri is basic, but fun, the original version is the best graphically but the later version after the 3ds port have more content.

Freedom Unite is many people's favorite classic monhunt, and it probably is the best example of the old, rough style.

Generation Ultimate has the most stuff going on, it's kind of all over the place and has styles, very much the first touch of the nu-monhun flavor.

World is probably the best balance, the non-hunting aspects are very easy and trivial, you do not need to worry about resource management but the monsters are still dangerous and deadly.

Rise is too easy, has the same problem that wilds ahs, but is also fugly as hell, uglier than genU.

Dos... now fuck me there's a challenge for you if you want it. Emulation is difficult with language patches needed and the game is basically the hardest monhunt ever made. Makes all the other ones look like a cakewalk and you can actually run out of money.

>wanted to play the very first MH and Dos because they have a unique control scheme and the PS2 visuals are nice
>turns out they're made around online play, not fucking with that
is it the same with FU? I wanna try a classic game but I always hear how the old games lock content behind playing online

>>713865471 (OP)
Freedom Unite or 3 Ultimate.

Which was the monster hunter game where they removed the game mechanic that you had to hit the monsters with the tip of your weapon for maximum damage?

>>713865471 (OP)
Name 5 good coop action rpgs.
You can't.
That's why nightreign did so well. People are starved for that genre. Devs need to realize it's less about being a monster hunter lab made clone and more so the ability to play great action game combat with friends while having rpg elements and progression.
Granblue relink was another banger that did numbers for a boomer gacha franchises first AAA release and that game had like two patches post launch.

>>713883779
>turns out they're made around online play, not fucking with that
MH1 made me realize how much I took farms for granted. Gathering resources is hell, especially when you don't have access to online. Hope you like doing the same gathering and killing small mobs quests many times over to get even a smidgen of what you need for making gear. Also the quest payouts make me want to vomit because as you said, this is shit to be done online.

>is it the same with FU?
The Portable quadrilogy (Freedom, 2, Unite, P3rd) are built around being able to play alone with the 'multiplayer' being a bonus. You can very well go to the gathering hall and take on those quests alone but bear in mind that the monsters are slightly tougher than 'offline' counterparts, even at low rank. Same rule applies 4, Generations, and even Rise.

>>713866361
Part 4 is the best part though

>>713868669
>>713865583
Vitamin C was great, but Doctor Wu and Urban Guerrila are also great.
Bit yeah. Jojolion peaked in somewhat early.

>>713865471 (OP)
What the fuck is this dogshit English that 4chan is covered in now? It has to be jeets, right?

Yes. They've got their own dialect. We need to firewall off that whole country before it's too late.

>>713887962
Mix of Indians, American and Mexicans.

>>713865471 (OP)
all mh is dogshit
>>713865583
jojo is abysmal dogshit

Rise and Sunbreak are wildly overhated and easily make for the best of the 3 most recent MH titles. For me, it's honestly up there with 3U, 4U, and GU as one of my favorite MH games.

>>713865471 (OP)
>Now that MH wilds is dogshit
They're adding two more monsters in TU2 and layered weapons alongside performance improvements.

What's the issue? Yes the launch sucked ass.

>>713865583
jojolion is proof araki went senile

>>713879342

Its only getting started
He has 5 years to shit the bed just like Jojolion

>>713883779
Theres "mainline" monhun and then there is "portable" monhun
Mainline games are fucking retarded as they are made by mouthbreathing mongoloids who don't know what video games are.

>>713895641
We're 2 years into Jojolands, I'd say that's beyond just getting started

>>713896221
nah it started like 6 months ago...

>>713865583
Agreed. JoJolion is way better than Part 3 retards give it credit for.

>>713882550
You pretty much nailed it. Tri is comfy as hell with its atmosphere and soundtrack, but holy hell is it barebones now looking back. Freedom Unite is Kino™ if you enjoy the pain of 15-minute Tigrex cart fiestas and farming Congalala anus hairs for two hours.

I'd throw P3rd into that sweet spot too - still has the old school jank charm but it's smoother than FU and the aesthetics are peak comfy-on-a-PSP-under-a-blanket.

World is great but loses soul with too much QoL and boring locales. Rise feels like you’re playing MH on training wheels with tap-to-win wirebug spam, and Wilds looks like it's going the same way but somehow uglier.

Also bless Dos for being the most evil game in the series. Every menu fights you, crafting is guesswork, cashflow is poverty, and yet I keep coming back to it. True masochist fuel.

>ah champion of hating every monster hunter but world has arrived

wilds is good thoughever
and its only getting better

>>713893636
SA feeling as good as it does makes me heavily biased in favor of Sunbreak. Also, Fiorayne is sex, and Malzeno is up there among my favorite flagships.
