Can we finally admit that the series peaked with World and that we didn't know how good we had it?

Anyone's up for a Ragung Brachy hunt on GU Ryujinx?
>>715666928 (OP)
The game doesn't have Gore. It looks stupid slapping World's logo on an anniversary render

>>715666928 (OP)
Rise > World

>>715667119
okay ninceldrone

>>715667119
Rise is shit, especially base rise before sunbreak

>>715666928 (OP)
Game peaked with 3U. 4U was a step down and it's been down since

>>715666928 (OP)
World is the entire fucking reason the franchise started to go down so no, Wilds is a result of the shit Worlds did.
Unless you like to memory hole the 'Return to World' campaign.

>>715667375
>3U
lmao who the fuck was playing that grandpa? get real

>>715666928 (OP)
I just want to comfy up on GU servers with my 'eck. Why does Capcom insist on keeping zombie modern monster hunter alive?

>>715667608
Sorry the series peaked before you were born.

>>715667532
This. I loathe world babbies so much it’s downright fucking unreal.

>>715667647
You can already do that though

>>715666928 (OP)
World is peak Monster Hunter.

>>715667375
4U was leagues better than 3U, but I'll take anything classic for a remaster at this point.

>game that made the series soulless so braindead westerners would enjoy it
>peak

>>715667739
It cannot be better than any 3rd gen games because of its trash maps

>>715667739
Nah mounting was incredibly gay. Mainline team has this obsession with adding free knockdowns and free damage bullshit. Wall bangs, turf wars, interactables, endemic life, offsets, perfect guards. ALL of those stem from mounting being added. Genuinely one of the biggest mistakes of the series

>>715667846
>hating ancestral steppe

>>715667532
by that logic every single entry was the beginning of the end

>>715666928 (OP)
Casualties garbage. World killed MH. MHGU mogs it snoy.

>>715667239
Base Rise was meh.
Base World was straight up bad, even worse than Wilds in many way (although still a better experience overall).

The series peaked with Iceborne but guy who made it left so don't expect Shartcom to release anything good now

>>715667819
>>715667658
>>715667684
Cope you know World is the best and nothing you say will change that fact. Ask any existing MH world fan outside of /v/, the home of autists that never leave their mom's home, and you know that I'm right.

>>715666928 (OP)
*4U

world is closer to classic monhun than GU

>>715666928 (OP)
World is better than nothing, but everything after it is cancer.

>>715667885
Ancestral Steppe and Frozen Seaway are all right. The others are just stupid cancerous waste of time
>What if everything is Area 2 of Snowy Mountain but taller?
>What if we throw in stupid ledges even on the Tower?
>What if we made not just monster pallette swap but also for maps instead?

>>715668041
shh, /v/eddit is not ready to hear this trvke

>>715667608
where the fuck do you think you are little bitch.

>>715666928 (OP)
>No lock on
>Spend 90% of fight chasing spaz monsters around
>Spend 10% of fight swinging slow ass weapons that take 5 years to swing
>Can fall 5000 feet and not die, but gets paralyzed but stupid ass roaring
>No health bar on target
LMAO no

>>715667996
>shart claw
iceborne ruined world
good riddance lol

>>715668236
Just get the fuck out of this thread, adults are arguing here

>>715668371
>Adults
>Playing literal slop.
If you an adults series try Dark Souls.

>>715667085
Okay, who's up for 3U or 4U hunts then?
I haven't tried direct IP outside of local network though

>>715668236
>needs lock on, health, and fast animations
Let me guess, you're a souls fanboy

I only played portable 3rd, then 4u, then world, then wilds. I liked all of them, but wilds was distinctly disappointing because of how much they dumbed down the combat that makes these games so unique and fun to me.
How is rise? Does it still have the old style combat or does it have the wilds style combat where you can turn freely?

>>715667608
I'm a zoomer tho

>>715668712
Rise dumbed down the combat to appeal to anime fans with ADHD

>>715668712
It's a smoother GU. Take that as you will

>>715667885
It's laughable the best 4u map is the remake of gen 1 desert

>>715668876
Doesn't give me much of an impression since I didn't play GU, but I heard it's very flashy.
Primarily I was curious about the fundamental combat. Does it still actually limit your turning etc? Or can I just 180 with a greatsword or gunlance like in wilds?

>>715668041
>DUDE CLAW LMAO
nah shut the fuck up worldsperm

>>715668965
It doesn't get that insane, but yeah it's super flashy, all weapons got special moves (most are parries or counters) with cooldown
I guess you could do 180 turn with GS using the Rage Slash special, but IIRC it's superarmor so you'll have to trade free rotation with health

>>715669087
not an argument

>>715669087
>DUDE ARTS LMAO
seethe, tendie

>>715669163
Most of the fight is spent abusing mechanics that have nearly nothing to do with your weapon.
Thus no. It's not. Even fucking wilds is more "classic mh" than world.

>>715668467
nice bait

>>715666928 (OP)
World was just another step in the decline of the series. MH peaked a long time ago, and have been in decline since tri/4.

Hmmm, what should I hunt today?
Maybe a Raging Brachy with fellow Hunters would be fun :)

can we all just stop pretending like we didn't start playing MH with World? or at the very least that that's when it clicked?

>>715669585
W ragebait

>>715669585
I started with World and I know of people who started much earlier. Stop writing stupid shit

nintendies will never recover from world lmao
and no, GU was what started the downfall of the franchise with rise coming second and wilds sealing the deal

>>715669585
I started playing with Unite, and all the other players in my gaming group for World discovered the franchise with it.

>>715667846
>le bad maps
Biggest fucking cope ever.
4U together with GU both have the best gameplay and content in the entirety of the series, and nu fans and tribabs will never stop being mad over it. Real MH fans already had a fireworks finale with those two games. What came next is just the inferior push for the Modern Audience™

>>715668176
holy sovlfvl

>>715669650
they're lying to you and to themselves

>>715669995
>Things I like is always flawless!
Sounds like a cope from a very insecure person

>>715670190
Woah, guess fivers are the most insecure people ever then.

I don't like the grind in these games any more

>>715670294
Well yeah shitposters are shits

>>715666928 (OP)
It was the start of the decline.
>fast travel anytime
>restock anytime
>heal with no penalty

If we're being honest the series has been going "downhill" since Dos. It's been getting progressively more casualized as the series went on and I'm saying this as someone who started with P3rd on an emulator before World.
Not to say that there haven't been improvements and interesting additions as the series went on, but the edges kept getting shaved off until it no longer resembled a "hunting survival" game the original was and just became a grindy action game with barebones RPG elements.

>>715670554
it's called monster hunter, not monster survivor
i personally don't think any of it was bad until Rise happened. that flashy anime shit was just too much

>>715666928 (OP)
Lol it peaked with frontier and sunbreak really not debatable

>>715669995
as much as i love 4U stop coping man. when the endgame consists of monsters that one shot you with almost every attack (not even just 140s but apexes in general) the maps matter alot and 90% of the time the reason you get killed is because some gay ass ledge or slope cucks your positioning and you get killed, its so fucking awful

>>715670913
>endgame is just finding that perfect GQ when the moment you enter the next zone the target monster is there and it's a flat open area with barely any ledges with the relic weapon and skin you want
SOVL

>>715670913
>one shot you with every attack
>apexes in general
that's not even a skill issue, you're just undergeared
