Ignoring the controls, this is the most comfy monster hunter

I hated it on PS2. PSP gave it a playable control scheme.

>If you're not as old as I am you're not a real fan

Gen Z really went from "Boomers bad" to "MY AGE IS WHAT DEFINES ME AND ANYONE YOUNGER IS STUPID."

Gen Z has no idea what a playstation 2 is.

Nobody cares. In fact, too many people care and that's part of the problem.

Man why are ps2 games so impossible to play?
I wanted to try this and god hand but setting up the emulator seems incredibly convoluted.
Why can't it be like dolphin where you just get the emulator and roms and done?

If a game has [game franchise] in the title and I really enjoy it, I AM a fan.

played it at launch

also anyone that played the psp games with "the claw" played wrong
that is all

I did and I loved it despite the jank and outright bad monster AI

Basic ass Rathalos in MH1 is more of a pain than some endgame monsters in later games due to how it more often than not will spend over half the fight flying away

why are mh coverarts so shit?

thats rathalos in every MH all the time, guy is just a stupid bitch

They spend all the cover art budget on the Famitsu render

Nah in the very early MH games the monster behavior was much more randomized and Rathalos in particular would actually spam flying away from you for AGES

And since there wasn't proper ways to fight him while he flew (he didn't have his "hovering" state where you could still fight like in newer games so it was JUST the fireball or talon attacks) Rathalos was one of the worst fights in the game.

eh, fair. I'm not really a MH fan, more of a MH world fan.
You guys can keep playing the classic like FU, 4U and Rise while I play the good one

It's marked indelibly on my mind. Even in MHUG the forest and hills are my favourite place to visit.

That's the closest you can get to having actual gameplay on the cover, can be a bit sketchy sometimes but it's MH kino

I wonder if they are ever going to remake that map into the new style.

It'd be pretty straightforward I think, none of the rooms feel that spread out.

i got filtered by the controls
it's my first real console

you probably weren't born when the ps2 came out

No reason why they couldn't other than the lack of space.

Gen 5 rath doesn’t have the world tour

My first attempt playing online involved 11-year old me wasting the dragonator in the Lao Shan Lung event quest. My party members didn't take that well. Good times.

I was a Lance main as a child in that game. No internet, solo play only and I sucked so I had to hide behind a shield. Lance stuns where pretty good.

>you're not a real fan.
good, imagine being a tranny lmao
