I can't call GU one of the older games. Arts and styles are too emphasized in the gameplay. Sure, you can cut out Hunter arts, but you still don't get quite the same experience. Using guild without arts will still give you speed eating when someone uses an sp art, using striker completely shafts some weapons. Armor skills are balanced around the mindset that your arts and styles are roughly equal to an armor skill, so you're much more limited in what skills you can get. Deviant weapons are balanced around filling your Hunter arts faster. I'm glad people like the game, but it's not classic MonHun.

Once you throw the paintball it is a race against its duration if you can beat the monster before it wears off...

It's a testament to the game when you can say that it's easier to count the (non-elder) monsters who are NOT in GU than those that made it in. it really is a celebration of everything that made pre-World MH games great.

Way ahead of you. Started playing about a month and a half ago. Just beat Valstrax and it was one of the most fun hunts I've ever done.

I have to say, it really is a blast going backwards in the series. I just finished my playthrough of Monster Hunter Tri and it was surprisingly fun seeing what made it unique and how far the series has come since then. Underwater combat was a fun -- albeit woefully underexplored -- mechanic, the custom bowgun system was extremely interesting, and Tri being the game that introduced both Leviathans and Brute Wyverns had a great (albeit quite shallow) variety of monsters. However, combat was stiffer than in later iterations, having to straight up unlock the ability to craft Switch Axes and Longswords was tedious, and the lack of high rank made the game feel especially short. But I still enjoyed my time with it, and am looking forward to diving deeper into the series past with Freedom Unite.

My favorite weapon/style combo has to be adept hammer. Its just so aggressive and when you learn a monster you just don't take damage. I keep coming back to this game because of the multitude of ways to play

Thanks for the Awsome Content!

You blurring out that Elder Dragon didn't stop me feeling the pain of farming it

G and GU was an amazing experience. I went from Adept SnS, to Striker SA(before it got nerfed in GU), to Valor GS to Valor LS. This game had so much variety with just the weapons and styles and focusing your armor skills around your weapon/style combo was incredibly fun.

Great content! Subbed!

I never played world before so it was hard to get used to the new move sets during the rise demo, but it did work in my favor. There were some habits I picked up in mhgu that helped in the rise demo. For example, I use critical juncture quite a bit in mhgu, so serene pose was a yes for me. Not many ls users like using serene pose due to the many counters ls already has, but because critical juncture was pretty much identical to it, I know how to use it effectively.

Nice video! Got a new subscriber

Looking to pick this up soon when I finish rise. Never played it but looks great and similar to my personal favorite 4 ultimate

With the amount of promotion and praise you give the game in this video, I expect Capcom to send you a check for a job well done.

This is probably the best video recommending MHGU I've ever seen. As someone who has played over 1k hours of Gen+GU I can instantly relate to pretty much everything you said. The accuracy and attention to detail in this video is truly praiseworthy. It's rare to find someone who has put enough time into this and really knows what he's talking about. Massive props man, looking forward to part 2

Good stuff 👌

GU is definitely the MH game that just keeps giving, ive played this game for around 500 hours at this point and i feel like ive still only scratched the surface. Its definitely a fanservice for old players, so it might not be as easy for people who started with world to fully appreciate everything GU set out to do, but its definitely still a solid recommendation for them imo, its just too damn fun!

No lie. Had a bit of a rough time getting into it since it’s my first Monster Hunter, but I still made it in 30 hours without even realizing it.

I've played Monster Hunter since Tri, and after World, Gen U felt very welcoming, like going back home after a long time. It's great to see that Rise is taking some cues from the older games in its visuals and monsters, while keeping World's mechanical improvements, and Gen U's wacky hunter arts in the silkbind attacks.

the blurred out poison clouds makes me remember certain trauma with a certain elder dragon lol

Getting that Red Big Crown next to your name is very satisfying. Praise Bloodbath.

Good video 👍

I 100% agree with the gratification felt from making the perfect build in GenU. I managed to come up with a G-Rank Crit Eye+2, Sharpness (handicraft)+2, Load Up, Artillery Expert build with the Diablos CB which was one of the strongest raw attack CBs in the game and it felt SOOOOO GOOD. Now I’m studying mechanical engineering.

I tried to play it after getting rehooked into MonHun by World (used to play Tri) and since no one brought this up; the clunk getting started is nearly unbearable :") the tutorial took 2 hours and the loading times between areas were absolutely unspeakable when i got lost trying to return to the camp. i ended up just dropping it entirely and havent been able to get back into it. this is the main flaw of MonHun before Worldborne i feel; ps2 era clunk that has not been changed since. the flare and character more than make up for it, but trying to get hooked is extremely difficult and puts many off. World fixed this, but lost so much of the style and character in its Worlds and Monsters that made MonHun so special . . . but Rise looks to have brought it back! heres to crazy ass monsters, baby! for real though, great vid! thanks for the lowdown! 🤘

That monster you blurred out is probably a favorite for me. I know exactly what it is, and honestly. I just loved fighting it. I'm still trying to figure out what style and weapon I wanna use, bouncing between SnS and LS, and I'm in G2 lol

As a Charge Blade main, my favorite style of this weapon is Adept. The moveset loses almost nothing of interest, while giving Sword mode the Adept power guard (which shortcuts straight into red shield charge) and giving Axe mode the usual Adept dodge. (You can't combo from a guard point to AED either, but that applies to all CB styles equally.)

I've always had a tough time getting into Gen U because of the slow beginning. I remember that you basically had to wait until the volcano area to begin crafting cool weapons. Something about needing a certain stone or oar that almost every weapon required

Just built the Kecha Wacha X set for my hunting horns, and wow yah evade extender feels like a fun new different way to play

Im the type of player that plays monster hunter to destress, ive been a hunter since generation 1. World and Rise pushed Monster hunter into the mainstream and im so happy it did. Rise was an amazing game still is. Rise puts the perfect spin on Monster hunter combat. making it faster and more action packed. World had its fair share of problems. the Cluthclaw being one of them. MH4U and MHGU is always the games i come back to when im looking for that OLD school hunting exp. its simply a fantastic game series.

you deserve more views and subs, this video is extremely well made, and as an MH veteran I agree that by trying out GU you'll have a blast, it has 92 big monsters, what else do you want more?

I actually had GenU for a while, but I never was able to get into it until I finally understood the playstyle for valor and adept styles, and I finally figured it all out. I have to say, the monsters I've fought is truly wonderful

The elder dragon you blurred out I recognize that smog you have excellent taste in Elder Dragons.

I've been playing gen since DS, Have over 1400 hours now. I love that there's so many monsters, and weapon options with styles and arts. The amount of weapons and armour I've crafted in that game would surprise people for sure...

couple addition style rec's, that you didn't put in your video: Valor Insect glaive: best version of having you kinsect fight with you (plus it's my second fav style combo only behind aerial IG) Striker SnS: Basically guild SnS but with three hunter arts, and all SnS hunter arts are incredible Valor DB: allows you to be really aggressive while keeping your sharpness at max

I can't be the only one who use adept GS to recreate that generation opening scene

I just ordered GU so I’m pretty excited

11:12 I would also add Striker to the Lance as well. It's the one style that gives you back the classic triple poke combo, and the Lance specific Hunter Arts Like Screw Thrust and Enraged Guard

A note about Aerial Style: Apex Gaming has a great video about it, but it is not a style focussed on merely mounting. While on the surface it may look that way the aerial vault which replaces your normal dodge roll is a potent counter, letting you turn monster attacks into openings for massive, stylish counterattacks depending on the weapon. Not only that, but depending on the weapon it allows you to go hyper aggressive if you know the monsters attacks and timings well enough (did you know you could vault off of Glavenus tailspin? Or Rathalos poison dive?). Of course it depends on the weapon; some have their best moves or even critical combopieces locked behind the vault (Longsword), but it doesnt change the fact that it allows you so much freedom to be as aggressive as you can be. My go-to Weapon-Style combination is Aerial Insectglaive, and boy does the longvault make a difference. Anyway, here's the link: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hI6KwZh6qbLgZtI.html

great video but u forgot all the PTSD from the Ex fights, i still have nightmares about fighting ex hellblade as a db lol

Aerial Switch Axe is what made me love GU

I found Switch Axe to be insanely good with Adept style. It perfectly coveres the Switch Axes lack of mobility and evasion options as well as giving you quick and powerful combos after the dodge.

Ive been playing generations ultimate on a new 2ds xl thanks to the modding community translating it ITS SO DAMN FUN

Alchemy I found to be more focused around support and the special SP mechanic. One of two Hunting Styles that can equip three Hunter Arts at once, but the only one that can SP all three.

Funny I just got back into a new account on gen u and got hook again. Loving the many monsters and unlocking my mix sets.

I love making meta sets that reach the utmost peak damage numbers possible but I also love to make my own "comfy" builds with speed eating for example, etc. That's the fun of mh

Generations is fantastic I'm playing through it now although I don't expect to finish before Rise arrivesIt is however nice to get a taste of what Monster Hunter was in the old generation

I just killed my first Malfiesto, and that beautiful owl bastard, had better be in Rise.

That maccau is giant btw Oh yea, when you do valor counter into running sweep for long sword, you dont need to run. To prevent running, just press the same button you normally would without holding the stick (let it go). That method of not moving too much is the same for many weapons such as for aerial style.

Picked up Gen U recently and almost have an hour on it. Might have to practice adept dodging cuz ive been relying to my on adept guard and valor stance lol

Guard Up and Mighty Bow can now be bought at trhe elder melder for quite some time. This change illustrated perfectly why the deco system was more flawed than the talisman system

when Rise was announced I actually decided to pick up Gen U on sale cuz I wanted to play and get adjusted to MH on Switch. World was my first MH game so going to Gen U took some adjusting.

Lmao I keep putting off MHGU but I keep wanting to play and this video is the kick in the butt I needed to pick up where I left off.

100% agree with this! Generations Ultimate was such a damn good game with all it's mechanics and monsters as well as being a fantastic send off to the classic monster hunters! :D

I actually played all the way through g rank as a bomb prowler. This game is nutty

Haven't played gen u in a hot min so i wasn't prepared to see 10 phials on CB

Yes we need more players! I require team mates to farm the event white Fatalis for its GX armour... Not a single soul online has qued up for that hunt with me in ages and I still need it done... 😞

What I miss about early-mid game of Gen is my whole approach to small personal goals. I'll see something I want to build, plan out how I'll grind that monster for it, plan out a whole set to most efficiently hunt that particular monster, craft that set out, repeat the whole process if building said set will also take some grinding... but now there's way more one-size-fits-all sets, and such expanded flexibility of skills to the point that armor sets barely even matter most of the time. I hope Rise locks it down a bit more again, goes way harder on elemental damange, status effect resistance and infliction, maybe even have more monsters that are best fought with particular weapon types to push you to try stuff outside your comfort zone. Too much flexibility and accommodation to every single hunter and their preferred hunting style, and the entire incentive for the game loop breaks down.

Imo the biggest difference and what makes the older games ultimately shine more than their newer counterparts is the game tempo. In IB/Rise you pick the quest, you run to the monster and beat it in flashy style. In GU you pick the quest, then you're immediately decelerated because you have to look for the monster, then it picks up when you fight it, then it decelerates again when you have to chase after it, which lets you check your inventory, reflect on the fight and what not. It gives time for stuff to sink in. Then the fight reaccelerates when you fight the monster. Imo a pretty perfect balance that has been completely dropped by newer iteration Monster Hunter games. The newer games are much more engaging, but GU- is a much more wholesome gaming experience. Really makes you feel like a hunter strolling the lands looking for big monsters, as opposed to the fighter you become with the newer generations.

I'm thinking of maybe restarting MHGU. I'm Hr5 and I've completed the village quests. I keep saying I'm gonna start playing it again but other games keep coming up. Starting over would be pretty fun.
