@@AceOdes Jokes aside, I heavily recommend anyone newer to monster hunter to try out the first game in some capacity lol even if it's the freedom 1 port. It was a hell of a time back then and the amount of differences is staggering, especially if you started in world or rise.

Hammer is always good in every game if you actually know how to use it..ppl only think its a matter of swinging when there actually is combos and whatnot
That explosion effect when you hit the monster's head really makes you feel that the monster feels the impact with every hit. In Rise I felt like I was hitting a rock or concrete. lol Nice gameplay man. This also shows us how GU/XX is still alive nowadays. I, for example, am playing XX with a friend via Citra Multiplayer since he doesn't have a Switch or a PC to play on Yuzu etc. So I play MHXX on Citra just for him. Playing MH with friends is much more fun. haha
Yo, do you still play MHGU? Looking for more people to play with since I'm stuck solo right now (trying to get through village quests first, idk if you need to complete all thr village quests before doing hub quests)
@@shadyfsmusics I recommend doing all the low rank village keys and quests as well since it gives you some stuff and food recipes if you're playing solo. Since I was playing with my friend, we left at 4* quest and went straight to Hub to rush all the keys quest until we unlocked the Hyper Monsters. Now we're at G Rank farming Rathalos X set. That's actually in XX since he can't play MHGU because he doesn't have a PC.
i think guild style is considered to be the most meta compared to the rest of the styles, esp if you have both absolute evasion and readiness for self defense
love hammer, wish i was better at it in gen u, but in world when i killed fatalis during a run where i was only trying to learn its openings for hammer i ended up killing it!!! already cleared AT velkhana, last monster on my list is alatreon (I’ve only ever killed it with longsword)
If Capcom were to decide to recreate the old maps in an open-world style similar to Monster Hunter: World, it could be a great idea. I really enjoy the atmosphere of the old maps.
The Jungle map in Sunbreak is actually literally this concept for the Jungle map from Freedom 2/Unite and I think they did a really good job. ua-cam.com/video/-oR-t33M4Xc/v-deo.html
That is literally what they did in Rise, my man. They renamed the maps but they're the same ones from second and third generation (apart from the citadel and shrine ruins, which are new).
Old gen Hammer is fun and better (in my opinion) than 5th gen hammer. I used it a lot in 4th and 3rd gen, and I’m currently starting FU with hammer (farming kut ku ears, it doesn’t want to drop them)
Bro is talking about GU as if it's old X.x I also didn't feel like GU had the intimidating monster feeling you're talking about. The only times I felt that in the past was Mh Tri and Mh4u (Mh4u endgame mostly)
@Erik-vf9yn oh aye im talking more about the original mon hunter from ps2 era....monsters back then were less restricted...rathalos used to barely ever land and did constant strafing runs on hunters..
@@thugkermit9999 I’ve been trying it out recently and after some practice Valor is pretty fun too. It does straight up war crimes against some monsters.
Back in my day monster hunter was about perserverence and skill. The game didnt skimp on causing the player inconveniences. Monsters were predictable and learning their attacks felt cathartic. Nowadays the capacity to press buttons is enough to get by
I think 4u was the only game where hammer wasnt in my top three played weapons. Feels fucking horrible to use in 4u, especially when you start doing g rank
I was like, how do I do the golf swing in this game? Then I realized from a guide on the combo lines, that STRIKER does NOT have GOLF SWING. My god. . . this game can be frustrating like that, but also... rewarding when you learn.
this isn't the fatalis theme, this is just forest and hills however, fatalis' theme is literally the fnh theme but with fatalis chanting over and over gen1 was pretty unoriginal lol
Say, world baby here who's also done rise as their second game and no other experience whatsoever with older titles, how bad was hammer really? I'd guess just recently especially with rise is when hammer got good with insane poke, ko and even some aerial utility. Still, I've yet to learn much about lore and history about the franchise to understand much prior to this comment
Rise also has a major problem with endgame content monsters, aka afflicted, have such insane KO buildup that hammer doesn't really get to knock out more than once a hunt. It's still great in World, not as dominant on the speedrunning end as other weapons time wise, but still very fun for speedruns. In Rise the extra effort needed to make it good is very showing, just doesn't feel quite as good as it used too imo. I've only been playing it since 4u though so someone else may have greater insight
Hammer is the most consistently good weapon in the series, it has always slowly gotten stronger each game, but unlike other weapons it didnt get completely buffed to the moon for zero reason. So it kinda got left behind come rise.
@@OdinDOUCShammer was my first weapon and I started in 4U. You are right on the spot with this, it used to feel very rewarding to play but as the difficulty spiked it just felt like you were getting nothing done. Partially the reason why I went back to GU myself.
irrelevant to most of the video content, but the developers seem to really like putting sonic bomb effects on things that are like, never gonna go off during the like thirty seconds per hunt total that a sonic bomb might ever need to go off.
Hammer still isn't that great in mhgu, you're showcasing a crimson fatalis hammer though and the weapons in that line are just godly with the blast element. Not to mention you're solo in a double hunt which lowers the health of both the respective monsters. Honestly MH:World and Iceborne's hammer was pretty dang good.
@@thugkermit9999 True buuuuut when in a hunt with two monsters their health pools are lowered. doesn't have anything to do with multiplayer. also Valor great sword slaps hard XD
This is monster hunter G Ultimate? It still had gen 1 maps? Played the first game on PS2 and than the PSP gen. Dont play for a long time, but was glad Monster Hunter World became mainstream.
I still sit on this hill ill die in, Genult was MH peak combat, only close i can get hammer satisfaction in 5th gen is rise with courage hammer, but it doesnt compare to how it felt to learn valor hammer
@@jokigyeah right? Ive been playing hammer since 4U, its insanely fun. I think our friend here has forgotten that a weapon doesn’t have to be long sword to be fun.
At least is not SnS, in almost every game the strongest SnS has the same attack as the weakest hammer xD No, like, literally. I played Freedom Unite the strongest SnS is like 300-400 attack, the weakest hammers (Iron and Bone) have the same attack amount.

im sorry
For those of you dont know, this map hes on at the start is one of the original maps from the first release of MH
Yes thats the home of rathalos and rathian
Gee wiz
The very first map you play, ahhh the nostalgia of that vista at the first area the first time was fantastic.
Back in my day, lance was objectively the best weapon type in the game, and you swung it with the right analog stick.
Well back in my day we used to upgrade with all the parts in my inventory. Wait, I still play monster hunter so there is no back in my day.

Ah yes the 3 combo class. Poke poke poke, poke poke poke and run run run run poke. Simple and effective as alwayd
Something about Classic MH's golf swing is so amazing.
It still feels good but it doesn't give you that buildup in your guts.
Hammer was and still is my favorite weapon in the series, but nowadays anything hammer can do, there's something that can do it better.

As much as I enjoy Rise Hammer and IB’s Cluchclaw spin Hammer
GU’s Alchemy Style hammer remains my personal favorite
GenU was when Hammer was at it's finest and strongest. You a real one for going guild style.
i think guild style is considered to be the most meta compared to the rest of the styles, esp if you have both absolute evasion and readiness for self defense
It really wasn't. Hammer is comparatively weak in gen4. It was really good in Gen 1-2
GU Hammer is still bottom mid tier damage vise. And Guild is the meta style
tbf gen U was when almost every weapon was at its finest and strongest.
thats because the various styles helped a lot with covering the flaws off each weapon and making them super fun and balanced

The illusion breaks when you turn segmented maps into open world maps. The scale will feel considerably smaller.
