Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate is coming to Nintendo Switch on August 28!
- Thread starter Fire Bocchi
- Start date
Based on my opinion? No, the old monster hunter games are not good. World is amazing though.
Cheers. Wonder why that one is so late too. Capcom really like taking their time with this series.
User warned: Dismissive inflammatory posting, console warring.
I bet if MHW got a ultimate version with the same amount of monsters as Gen Ultimate, people will still find flaws about it.
And I also bet if there is a new MH game on switch with the exact same game design features as World these very same people will praise it and say it did better than world.

Damn. It's a really nice addition to the Switch, but I doubt I'll get it since the MHW is just better in ANY way besides the amount of contents. But MHW only came out a few months, I can almost guarantee that MHW will have way more contents than any other MH in the series in the long run.
(no console war)
Now let's bring MHW to Switch please. I would love to play it when I am in the bathroom.

The users who were mad at MHW platform choices are now criticizing MHW is not backlash and we all know it.
Took them long enough!
I've been convinced from the start that they'd bring this over though. Looking forward to it.

No criticism is ever universal. You can see that here in this thread. I love the game but I actively avoid rerunning quests on forest because I don't like KO'ing a monster and having its head flail around inside a random tree or wall. I want to fight the monster, not the map.
I don't see a backlash against MHW, but from personal experience, myself and my friends dropped off at around HR60 in early February and never once thought to return. We kind of all agreed the game was great but didn't scratch the same itch as MH4U or MHX on 3DS. And the content wasn't enough to keep us there.
I agree with this. The forest just was not my favorite map to run through.
They said they want to make sure it's well optimized for PC and not half-assed port IIRC. Depending on how far along the inevitable G-rank expansion is, it might even come bundled with PC-version depending on how long it takes to release the base game. That's my guess anyway.
What bubble? Era isn't the only gaming community I visit, plus I know literally hundreds of gamers IRL. As an outsider, it felt like everyone went MHW crazy for a hot minute, then went right back to Fortnite (I don't play either franchise for the record.)
If it's like XX (and I expect it will be), there'll be a 3DS download which transfers over just about all of your stuff. As I recall, there were just a few minor limitations with DLC quest gear and the like.
Sweet. Will there be a way to change any aspects of my character?
Edit: Wait, there is transmog in this? Oh booooooyyyy
Please tell me you're joking ._.
Ancient Forest is one of the most convoluted, messily designed maps in gaming as a whole.
Going by memory, I do believe XX offered a one-time chance to re-customize your hunter when importing data from the 3DS game. So Generations Ultimate would have the same feature.
I haven't played the game (or really kept up with any of the news because I never expected this to make it over), but I'm pretty sure it brings over everything.
Edit: Beaten! With better clarification no less!
Can we just not with this console wars bull?
Owners of one console don't act differently than owners of another. People are people.
It won't even come close. They're not adding anywhere close to that many monsters to make it possible
You said 3 days like c'mon now?
There were many events already released and people talked about them on Reddit,Facebook, the OT here.
Dante uniform gifs is all over Twitter.
Did the game dropped part of it's userbase? sure, but the game still has a lot of recurrent events and the PC release is still highly anticipated.
Everyone went to Fortnite. More content to MHW will come and people will jump back. It sold a ton, held interest for a while and that was the goal.
MHW content is fairly expensive after all so it's not something that will roll out for free rapidly.
Uh, well, I'm glad they're releasing this after an entire year, but now I have to decide if I want to replay MHXX in English, MHW on PC, both, or neither. Honestly I'm thinking neither. I may buy GU just to have all that content more conveniently in English, and maybe wait for the G version of MHW.
I really didn't like it. The later maps were better, but the Ancient Forest was legitimately a massive fucking maze with 800,000 layers of winding paths snaking around each other. It was still a pain in the ass for me to navigate after 200 hours, and I still needed the scoutflies to find out how the hell to get to certain areas toward the end. Maybe you get used to it after 500 hours. I never liked glowy trails because they're a crutch that leads players to just follow the sparkles and ignore the environment. Especially when they're so huge and bright they literally take up half the screen sometimes. Thankfully, again, I did get used to the later areas as they're more distinctive, with larger open areas and fewer tiny paths, and more straightforward and intuitive to navigate yourself.
Pretty sure that was just for the canned arena quests, though. It was a really limited way to play together locally.
Fair, plus they at least allow you to transfer your 3DS save file.
Yeah, nah. MHW has only added two monsters since release. I don't expect it to eclipse the content of this game — or even vanilla Generations for that matter — until it's inevitable sequel/iteration.
This is way too little and too late for me. I don't want to go backwards with QoL after World. Capcom continues to baffle me with their decisions.
And it's literally the same game in terms of content, so 3DS owners aren't getting the short-end of the stick if they're looking at this version. The DQXI situation is much more frustrating that this could ever aspire to be.
That likely won't happen for two reasons.
- Monster Hunter World is console exclusive to Sony in Asia, so there's no real point in doing a Switch port of MHW.
- MHW would probably run into numerous performance issues on the Switch.
It's a personal opinion. But I like maps that are not hand holdy with a lot of verticallity and gives the feeling of being lost.
Also the higher you go in the map, the more dangerous the creatures get forming sorta of a pyramid.
Are you the developer? MHW is a game that they are focusing on and care a lot. It's only been a few months and they already added a lot of cool stuff already.
No it's not. The 3DS version of XX was never localized so they're missing out on a lot of content.
It doesnt need to
It will get there over time
Just like every other new generation before it. Good god what is even happening
