- Is Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (MHGU) still worth playing? In this video I’m going through all the key aspects of the game, from its standout features to its potential drawbacks.
Whether you're a veteran hunter or new to the series, this video aims to provide you with all the information you need to make a thoughtful decision For those transitioning from the more recent Monster Hunter World or another modern Monster Hunter title, it's important to note that MHGU lacks some of the modern conveniences you might be accustomed to.
The hunting experience in MHGU has its own unique flavor, which may or may not resonate with your preferences. So, if you've been on the fence about giving MHGU a try, stick around and let's explore whether it's the right fit for you.

System: Nintendo Switch - Ігри
If your coming from Rise or World know that the skill system in older games like MHGU works different.
In order to activate a skill you need to have at least 10 points in a skill.
I enjoy playing it. I completely understand if newer players wouldn't want to play it as much because there is a learning curve, but I grew up with MH4U and like going back to MHGU and playing. It sucks that the servers are gonna shut down soon tho :,(
Yeah it's sad! I grew up with Monster Hunter Tri & i wanted to play MH3U. Got it for a few bucks a few weeks ago.
Sadly the servers are offline now if i've read that correctly. (8 April, right?)
I will take a look at it anyway, if i got the time, but it's sad not to experience it with the online community.
@@Hunters-Den I think it was either tri or 3, but people are trying to make online servers again.
the mhgu servers aren’t going offline for a long time, any new players still have a good while to experience this game with other players.
thats the servers for the 3DS game...not the Switch version
MHGU just has a ton of content to absorb when playing the game, the game afterall was made as a celebration, a "festival"
I dont get much triumph and adrenaline in completion of a narrative like MH4U, but this game is really fun to do with other people, and there are a ton of challenges to take on, a good variety rather than "monster have big damage hit"
There are a ton of ways to play the game with the various weapons that have came from the older titles, and the newly added weapon styles and hunter arts, aswell as the ability to play as prowler; my favorite class (boomerang cat armageddon)
There is a learning curve, which can be overwhelming, but as most games work, the more you play, the more used you get.
My only gripe with the game IMO is that due to the vast majority of content this game has, trying to complete it like a story game, much like the previous games, will be a very sluggish and exhausting experience, oh yea and hyper monsters are ass i hate them (A HYPER DURAMBOROS HAS THE SAME HP AS A WHITE FATALIS RAGHHHHHHHHH)
Deviants are hard from the start if you arent prepared, and as you climb the 16 quests that each Deviant has (aside from the G-RANK exclusive deviants), you are given more preperation and time to learn the monster patterns as you go from low-rank deviants to EX deviants.
This is why i believe EX deviants are a good challenge, their difficulty is quite artificial but it allows you to apply the knowledge of the G-RANK fights with the risk of getting oneshot if you are cocky enough, the previous quests allowed you to adapt to the monster before the "actual" challenge comes by, with a few extra steps thrown in such as EX Bloodbath stabbing his horn into the ground thrice times rather than twice to throw you off.
So, to be honest, MHGU is a great game when you are in the endgame, but it can be a bit well, exhausting at times in low-rank, and you CAN be disappointed if you expect a decent narrative to be made while playing the game, this game was mostly made as a celebration of monster hunter, it is, as i said before, a "festival"
Absolutely yes. This game is timeless
Good video bro, I really like MHGU :)
I got one thing to say for those New World hunters that are owners of GU, or thinking of becoming one : Congratulations.
And really, if you're neither one yet - What's wrong with you?
Unpopular opinion maybe, but imo MHGU is one of the most beautiful games out there, above both World and Rise and only second to Elden Ring. You always get to look so far into the distance which makes it all seem so massive and the colors are clear and amazing. I think there are not a lot of games that give you such a massive sense of scale, while actually being quite limited.
Looking at the Wilds trailer I think they rediscovered that aspect of the games again.
Coming from freedom unite I really appreciate the snowy mountains coming back.
I love this game, and every monster hunter fan should play it. It's truly the 'cap stone' game of the older generations, and has just about all the content from all the older games. The only things left out are some of the gigantic bosses where you had to use the environment to take it down rather than directly fighting it. You can solo all the content, even the G-rank monsters with skill and patience. To say this game has an ocean of content is an understatement. It's like having every main line dynasty warriors game in one, and DW8 alone as hundreds of hours of content. You can put *THOUSANDS* of hours into this game always having something new to go after or other weapons to master. This game even has a fully fleshed out Palico mode with as many ways to fight as the cat as there are ways to fight with the most complex of the 14 weapons types. Get this game, it's a no brainer. I got this game for $20 in an E-shop sale.
Hell yeah. GU is still such a great game. Actually prefer it to Risebreak. Valor GS is just so much fun.
Mhgu still has that old classic monster hunter feel but with something new with hunting styles whether u want to play defense or aggressive theres alot to offer. I would definitely recommend it if your into the classic mh games
Yes
The first monster hunter I played is MHFU and I grew up with it, at some point I stopped playing games and came back again playing World & Rise and it felt weird & Different. Then I read somewhere about MHGU and the surge of nostalgia hits me, sure it's different than older MH but it doesn't feel weird.
Tldr : If you grow up playing old MH I recommend MHGU, and for those who play World & Rise and want to experience what MH used to be and like challenges please give MHGU a try. Really love this video for bringing MHGU under spotlight.
Good video short and to the point, with great attention to detail by adding timestamps, i expect the algorithm to pick this up soon enough you did an amazing job,: could you perhaps make an upgrade material guide for the game when i started that was the biggest obstacle i found and what stopped me from enjoying the game since i searched for 6 hours where all the materials were especially when you have to rush through to get to HR, G ranks to enjoy the entirety of the game
Thank you for the compliment! :)
Could you elaborate which upgrade materials you mean exactly? Disc stones and such materials?
@@Hunters-Den yeah there are some materials that are necessary for a good quantity of weapons and armors, so i was talking about stuff like where to get bealite, machalite, dragonite, carbalite, Bones as well since the game does not tell you about anything
For example Monster Bone L is required for a LOT of items But is only dropped from Daimyo Herm at 19% carve and Shogun Cean at 18% capture, with a 25% break shell for both and a bunch of missions to get 1 bone at 15%, i played for like 20 hrs and got none and i need several for weapons and rathalos set
So yeah basically where to find the core material that will be in need by everybody since some are self explanatory
I'm thinking about making a little series for that kind of materials. You have any other that i should add to my list?
I dont know if i will do it, but i'm thinking about it atm.
Mhgu is my first monster hunter game, but in future i want to play other mh games too. So, my question, is mhgu harder than other mh games? Just want to feel cool, like i'm starting from the hardest. And also i want to know, is world LS easier than gu's? Cuz if it is, i will be disappointed (i just dont want to play too easie weeb weapon 😔)
even solo YES in my opinion my FAVORET MONSTER HUNTER and would love it even more if it get ported to pc.
Mhgu is very fun and feels good not to run attack up or focus on crit every single hunt like in world and rise trying to maximize damage output
Just here to say yes
Never played a monster hunter before. Picked this up on the switch about a month ago and regret nothing.
A big Fuckinnnngg... YES. even on 3DS even if the network service is down.
i will still continue playing this game. MHGU is even Played longer by now from me then MHRise because this title don't make so much fun. (my opinion) in with over 2,8k hours in World i still love Monster Hunter. The Second Play in Playtime for me was MHTri on the Wii with over 500h. Dawn so sad that the took of the servers. Now from Generation and 4 Ultimate too.
Yes.
What they need to do is make a MH collection with online play for all the games.
worth it, either you play it on your switch or through emulator. 💯% worth it.
If you want to have the time of your life it's absolutely worth it
Short answer it’s worth it but it’s got content bloat so don’t expect properly finishing it anytime soon
I begin from mhfu to rise. Yes it is
i have mhgu but i won't be playing it anytime soon.
but when i do, i'll definitely be coming to this channel for some content on it.
I started with 5th Gen, so I had to relearn a lot of things. It is a lot to adjust to, and I thought I'd never learn, but just take it one quest at a time. There are also a lot of weapon guides on youtube. Gunner in particular is very different. I've been playing the entire game solo since none of my friends have the game, and it does hit that same spot that 5th Gen MH does. Progression, you against the monster. The story is very minimal but the core MH gameplay more than makes up for that imo.
For any of y'all wanting to dive in I would also recommend watching Hunters Den's video on Palicos. Gives you plenty of info, and you can just take it one section at a time if you don't want to be overwhelmed by all the information at once. I've also posted a comment there that goes more in-depth about getting the moves and skills that you want.
That's a bit text dump but thank you if you've read this. I've thought about getting into multiplayer but I'm a Longsword main and I'm kinda scared I'll just get in the way. I DO go for tails (unless there isn't a frontliner weapon in the party such as GS or Hammer- basically if I'm the best potential face smasher then I will smash the face, if I'm not or there isn't another cutting weapon then the tail is my first priority) but the huge range of the Spirit Combo unfortunately lends itself to friendly fire. The advantage I do have though is that I have more spare time than the average person, so I can probably help speed up farming in LR and HR (haven't reached GR yet).
PS- haha recognized the BuJaBu set there at 5:24. (For those that are unaware, BuJaBu is a classic early game mix set for blademaster (melee weapons), with Bulldrome helm, arms, and legs + Jaggi chest and waist. It gives you Attack (L) which is great for going through LR fast. It also looks pretty nice which is a bonus.)
Got a guide for this set too! ua-cam.com/video/Cv7HlQrIFfs/v-deo.html
And thanks for the kind words :)
I think that will help a lot of newbies out (your text dump here & under the palico video).
MHGU can be overwhelming at first, but it's worth it imo.
Yes its worth it having so much content why ignore it
Still playing MHGU. finished all main/optional of world/rise and mhgu gives me all the content I can play daily 🫡
U can get this game for like 20$ I’d say it’s worth it
Still holds a place in my heart for play. I like world and rise, but there's something great here to come back to.
Is not just worth it
Is a *_MUST_*
It's the peak of old gen style MonHun
Frontier is also pretty damn good but Zenith and other stuff just makes it ridiculous
Impresive, but absurd in a damn crazy level
GU is everything any Hunter need
Better than the modern games for sure
Except for the knock into loading zones but it doesn't happens that often, specially if you know the zones enought to just walk away from it
MH4U is my best one than this because of expeditions, story & locations. But I still play Gen from time to time.
I do hope they remake MH4U for Switch or Switch 2 because MHW is not coming to Switch so we need a game to keep us hunting more.
Besides, while I really love Rise, MH4U is just SO MUCH BETTER!
MHGU is Still a master piece 👏☺️
the short ans is yes mhgu is the greatest of the old game in one and for me the greatest of all the games
if you have friends to play with, sure. if not, why torture yourself?
Maybe some people like torture? But tbh if i didnt have my brother to help me through lao shan lung i would have quit lmaoo
The simple answer is yes, yes every single MH game is still worth playing. 💪
no
Short answer, it's better than Monster Hunter world and rise, the best Monster Hunter yet, and it's not a baby game, and it has prowler gameplay
You're very right, my friend. 😎👍
Wtf am I reading
It's not better then mh4u but it's decent
Prowlers are only good for gathering
Yes. MHXX is the best game ever.
