I have put 20 hours into Monster Hunter gen, and it is such a great game, but at the same time I have constantly heard 4U is the better game from people here on 4chan, so, should I buy 4u or just stick with gen, and what are the differences that make 4U the better game overall?
If you can only play one, 4U is better, but I like lots of stuff in Gen including wep arts, even though the story is quite a bit weaker. Gen is my go to if I want to play one of them, I just like playing with the newest shit.
Gen is better for gameplay
Hunter Arts and hyper monsters suck dick.
MH4U have G rank that alone make it a better game.
Gen is fun but 4U is the peak of the franchise for now.

Are you slinging shit or would you like to elaborate?

>4U is the peak of the franchise for now.
3U on Wii U is a better game. The problem is that no one has a fucking Wii U.
MAKE way for MHW!
I started with 4U and then played 3U then played Gen.
I think 4U is the best.
3U is second
and Gen is third.
I say Gen is third because I haven't played it much. The arts confuse me and I've done nothing but fetch quests. There doesn't seem to be an overall story like 4U or 3U.
It's just doing quests and revisiting old areas from old games.
I haven't progressed far into the game to say it's higher up yet, but all I can say is if I started with it first, I may have liked it most.
But 4U is my favorite.

Apex and GQs/Relic gear are utter horseshit

Well, hunter arts and styles are gay, but deviants are a really cool idea.
That said, 4U has a fantastic longevity to it. Just stop after getting the clownsuit you want because gearing beyond that is really fucking boring and all you fight are Apex Jho/Rajang.

3U has swimming and lacks elder dragons.
Third gen had pretty good monsters, though.
>>382062370
>swimming is bad
what 3U lacks in elder dragons it makes up for by not having the garbage areas and shitty gen 1/2 monsters that plague 4U
and it also doesn't have >>382062336 which are easily the worst "additions" to the series, I hope they never come back
>>382062115
3U is on 3DS as well, just without onlineunless you have a Wii U, too
>>382062336
They're also completely optional post-game content, while shitter arts and hyper monsters are shoved onto you at every opportunity.
>>382062658
Arts are optional though
and Hyper monsters are literally just Apex but better
>>382063103
I might be alone in this one but Apex was a good incentive for actual teamwork.

t. someone who played monster hunter for 10 years
>>382063328
it is
t. someone who has been playing monster hunter for 10.5 years
>>382063867
I agree with him
t. someone who put 1000+ hours in each MH game.
>>382064190
I agree with him, too
t. started with 4U a week ago

Arts are technically optional, but you put yourself at a disadvantage by ignoring them. HA were a selling point of the game, and the game is designed and balanced around them. There's a reason hyper monsters have a gorillian HP and the only benefit you receive while fighting them is faster HA charge.
3U grandpas will never get their realistic MonHun ever again.
Why couldn't we get XX in september to tide us over for worlds
It feels like forever since i've played monhun
