Monster Hunter 3 is on the Wii U. That's basically it for online play if you don't have a 3DS.cojo965 said:Very quick thread here. I want to play Monster Hunter online but would rather not get a 3DS, what are my options?
Unfortunately Capcom has said they are no longer making Monster Hunter for consoles, so the one on Wii U is your only option.cojo965 said:Very quick thread here. I want to play Monster Hunter online but would rather not get a 3DS, what are my options?
Eeeh...never say never. I recall an interview where they did say they really liked the 3DS architecture but if Nintendo starts moving their resources away from the 3DS than the next MH after...Generations? XX? Well the current Monster Hunter game in the earliest stages of development might find its way onto the Switch. It might be a while though.Nuuu said:Unfortunately Capcom has said they are no longer making Monster Hunter for consoles, so the one on Wii U is your only option.cojo965 said:Very quick thread here.

I'm hoping that they'll end up making one for the Switch considering what kind of console it is, but i'm not betting on it.
It's fucking garbage and should be avoided at all costs just like their toukiden games.Wasted said:I never played it but I read good things about God Eater 2. I believe its on the PS3/4 and PC.

Care to elaborate? They've come up a couple of times on steam while browsing for games.Spacewolf said:It's fucking garbage and should be avoided at all costs just like their toukiden games.Wasted said:I never played it but I read good things about God Eater 2. I believe its on the PS3/4 and PC.

Toukiden 2 is good. GE Resurrection gets progressively better. GE2 and Toukiden...are still better than Freedom Unite and everything before them. They are repetitive, especially GE, but not unfair stupid ugly bullshit.Spacewolf said:It's fucking garbage and should be avoided at all costs just like their toukiden games.Wasted said:I never played it but I read good things about God Eater 2.

How are the MH games unfair? I've only played the first and MHP3rdHD but neither seemed unfair apart from the Plesi hip check hit box but that's pretty much a meme by now. The main issue I have with the GE and Toukiden games is they lack any sort of weight your character jumps around like a anime protagonist on pixie dust and the monsters for at least the length of the story campaign can barely touch you and if they do it does fuck all damage. They also seem to have a less in depth crafting system in MH your sword can usually become two or three upgraded forms which then each have their own branching paths the GE and Toukiden games only seem to have one or two paths at most which loses the major attraction of the MH games of killing a bunch of rare animals enough times that you can literally wear them as shorts.Vassassell said:Toukiden 2 is good.

You played different GE then, lol. Like, by themselves Aragami can be avoided if you don't overcommit, yeah. But they usually come in two, with a bunch of support. Or in 4.Spacewolf said:How are the MH games unfair? I've only played the first and MHP3rdHD but neither seemed unfair apart from the Plesi hip check hit box but that's pretty much a meme by now.

Maybe I'll give Toukiden 2 a go then, I played GE1 and 2 and found them so easy I completed the entire single player campaign without dying. The first Toukiden was abit harder but as I said was very floaty and overly easy again. (Used the chain and blade and would barely touch the floor in a fight, and the Onis couldn't track or touch me even if I didn't try to dodge, the White wolf boss was just a disappointment.)Vassassell said:You played different GE then, lol.

In case of GE, everything is weightless, but this is at least consistent across everything. In Toukiden the point is shifting between two states though - Oni can be prety animalitistic and then BAM become a fucking fidget spinner out of the blue. Slayers share those weird properties. Though i wouldn't call Toukiden weightless at all, it's just not grounded. Also, again. in 2 they are way harder and interesting. Plus weapons are harder to operate. constant stamina combo, parry and other management on pretty much every one of them.
In GE you can have skills on all 3 pieces of equipment + main module + blood art/predator style + link support devices + NPC skills. In T2 you have 3 mitamas, one for 4 active buffs, one for ultra attack with drawbacks, one with conditional passive, all 3 with shitloads of unlockable boosts of which you can only activate 3. Skills. ultras and conditional are type-related, while boosts are unique for every mitama. Plus mitamas of NPC. Plus Tenko's. Plus shrine, pool and food boosts. Someone asked for depth?
And now to older MH. Did you fought Kut-Ku? His tail swipe is a real killer. His slow, tiny, little tail does shitloads of damage and has giant hitbox. When Rathalos does his bite, hw twitches hi tail slightly, which results in covering everything behind him giant damage box. Every fucking wyvern does walking animation without actually moving! All 3 Fatalis are basically instakill badly animated derpy boxes of death with two attacks and no way to attack them with melee! First two generations are BROKEN. Steam Greenlight level of quality. And when they aren't broken, ala when second gn monsters kick in, they are boring. Ogretails feel more engaging than Kushala Daora. And grinding machalite sucks. Grind is fun when actions you need to perform are fun. Evrything past Tri is good though. Including P3rd. Like, they fired everyone who did first two games and hired talented people who don't have sadistic tendencies kind of good.
Well if you can wait until 2018 looks like you will be able to get monster hunter world for PS$, XB1 or PC.cojo965 said:Very quick thread here. I want to play Monster Hunter online but would rather not get a 3DS, what are my options?
