              I never played Sunbreak because I fricking hated the bugs in Rise.
              The bugs ruined multiple weapons by trivializing entire mechanics of a weapon. Instead of charging up the switchaxe you would just spend 2 bugs for a free full charge. They were fricking dogshit. Maybe it was fixed in sunbreak though.

                that was a big negative in Rise imo too, while I did enjoy the bugs more than clutch claw, they ruined some weapon mechanics like switchaxe u mentioned.

                I mained Charge blade in World but it was just all around shit in Rise compared to other weapons with cool bug skills.

                Like said before by some smart people in this thread, all the MH games have positives and negative, it's just up to every person which one they like best, I don't really think any are that much superior than other.

              I agree, the biggest thing is they sort of just balanced entirely around CC. It allowed you to have control over your agitator uptime (good design since it made you fight enraged monsters which is more dangerous) but also so you got full value out of weakness exploit since it was otherwise nerfed if you werent hitting a soft spot. Another issue was that until they released the skill that upgrades your tenderizing attacks, light weapons got cucked hard by having to do it twice to get a soften which in some cases denied you lots of damage if things didn't line up right

      I went back to world recently, and I found it refreshing actually mastering a weapon movesets instead of spamming bug skills to counter or do big damage.

      It feels like the monster is way more dangerous since you have limited ability to flip around the arena, so you have to manage your aggression and position proactively instead of reactively.

      I do think the wire bug skills are fun, but it's not very "monster hunter". After you get into high anomaly levels and get some really whacky skill setups it's basically an action rpg.

    World definitely looks better, has some more impressive areas and is overall a bit more approachable because of how it rolls out mechanics.
    I'd say Rise is just World Turbo. It's functionally the same game but with the tempo sped up by about 50%. Fights, hunts, monsters, everything's a bit faster and more aerial as well. Both are fun
    I like Rise more because its newcomers are stronger, wirebug >>> slings/clutchclaw, and arch-tempered fricking suuuuucks, even when you beat them

      Monster HP spikes up when ranks change but once you get a couple weapon and armor upgrades from master rank it'll basically be back to normal. Instantly outclasses anything you could've possibly ground out in high rank.

    Rise looks pretty bad and the bug skills make or break weapons which is annoying, but it also has an incredible monster roster.

    The best one by far is Freedom Unite with friends. It's actually a really rewarding, simple and skillful gameplay but the hitboxes are worse than the newest entries. Monster roster is top tier too, tons and tons of incredible stuff.

    Generations Ultimate on switch is a mix of old school and new school and has an insane roster and amount of maps. Gameplay can get pretty crazy with some combinations too.

    Your choice anon. For a newbie I'd say start with World and when you're done you can hit up Rise if you're interested.

    Once you have killed the True final boss in Iceborne you are pretty much done with the game. The rest is just hunt for fun and if you are autistic get all the achievements. The grind is long, but you can get some nice augments for your equipment. You can skip most of that shit and go straight into the final boss.
    Sunbreak is pretty much the same but somehow better and worse at the same time. The endgame is eternal, the armours are insanely powerful and the best part is that you can mix some skills to make your Armor even more broken. After you have killed the final boss the grind will be there waiting for you.
    But still, if you installed both just try both anon, both are great games on their own and a great experience.

      I will never understand anyone calling World casulshit when World Alatreon is more difficult than anything in the older games. I played all Portables and Ultimate versions of previous games, maybe the original Japanese releases were more difficult but I don't believe everyone calling World easy was playing them instead of the Western releases.

        World alatreon stop being hard the moment you figure out how to deal with eschaton judgement, it's literally the easiest iteration of Alatreon in the series, it just requires you to learn the fight/moves instead of having to survive for 50min while being efficient enough to not time out.

        Because low and high rank were super easy, except for endgame gigamonsters. Iceborne was SIGNIFICANTLY harder than the base game, a much bigger high rank -> G rank gap compared to previous titles.
        Developers even admitted it during interviews: they made World easy on purpose because they targeted new players, since it was the first home console game in over a decade. Imo they went a bit too far... but I played with some friends who never touched a MH game before and they struggled quite a bit at times.

        World Alatreon has such a non-threatening moveset it's basically just a fight against Escaton Judgement. Like almost every other monster in the game the devs just refuse to make the monster actually aggressive so unless you're too dumb to read its extremely obvious tells and dodge its small scale, tracking-less moves you'll stop getting hit by the second or third attempt. The DPS check is the only challenge, it was a massive disappointment if you're into action games instead of MMOs. Thankfully Fatalis actually delivered.

    World is pretty good, but it's a very different MH game compared to its predecessors.
    It was the very first Monster Hunter game for many, and it shows because when Capcom made Rise very similar to pre-World MH games, Worldbabbies screeched that it wasn't like World.
    I like both, World is more fun than Rise however.

      Only at the surface level.
      "Quests are split between Village and Hub, it's exactly like the older games!" Completely ignoring the fact Hub quests are also soloable and scale with the number of players. So the same as World, they only changed the menu you can access quests from.
      "Decorations are craftable and charms are RNG, it's exactly like the older games!" Completely ignoring the fact they changed the skill system and now it's the same as World.

      Gameplay wise – what truly matters – Rise is the least "classic" Monster Hunter game they have ever done. I'm not saying this as a bad thing, it's just different.

        I like Rise but World is much closer to older games than Rise is other than the general aesthetic but even that is more of a mix between pre World and World rather than straight up older games aesthetic.

It's not necessarily BAD but it needs to be pointed out.

    World is a better game if you're completely new to the series. It will leave a better impression. It focuses alot on presentation.
    Rise is more of the same 5th Generation gameplay, but with a few changes that appease old fans, and a few changes that appease 4th Generation fans with crazy moves from GU. But it's overall the same stuff again.

    Play Rise after World and its DLC if you liked it. Play the Older games that have "Ultimate" in their names if you liked what you played. They're all emulatable on PC.

    Playing a Monster Hunter game for the first time, just finished the campaign of Rise in ~15 hours, I understand that there's still tons of new monsters and quests to do, but is the franchise supposed to feel so shallow ? I only play solo if that impacts anything idk.
    Like, the only hurdle ingame is your DPS, and 90% of the tools (barrels, paralysis, poison etc...) seem to lower your DPS compared to just drinking an attack potion and straight up attacking the monsters.
    I tried multiple weapons set, including defender, and ultimately it just feels shallow so far.

    Is this kind of like the Diablo games where you need to reach the endgame before any kind of build optimization is relevant ? I see that your cat and pet dogs can be optimized for specific skills, talismans, ammo or coatings etc... but so far none of that had any impact so idk

    So far I only died once in game against the 5* boss with purple flames, because I'd kept the unupgraded starting armor until then, so I just crafted another and killed it in 10 minutes /:

      Defender gear is a trap that makes you too powerful and makes monsters too weak against you; don't use it
      Gear sets definitely get much more complex later on, especially more so in the expansion when they get more important and more varied
      With that said, though, tools in Rise are less useful than in past games since your offensive/counter options are better than past games
      I'd still recommend using endemic life and traps for the free damage/support that they provide

        I play games for the challenge. For me, a harder game is better by default. There are some exceptions like with everything, but if a game can't provide sufficient difficulty for me to overcome it's just not worth playing. Things like graphics and ease of control are all secondary.

    >World
    Good gameplay, terrible roster, worst maps but they look good. Very westernized with story and cutscenes constantly being shoved down your throat. Inexcusable shit like Zorah, "sniff shit to unlock Elder Dragons" and boned/steel weapons. Armour building is very streamlined as there is always one best option
    >Iceborne
    Adds A LOT of things and vastly improves World but the fundament will always be a pile of shit. New map is good but in endgame only 1/3 of it is used. Guiding Lands as endless monster hunt mode is cool but outside of this the material gathering with the area levels is pure garbage. Has the same streamlined "meta" set shit as World sadly. Anons will seethe a lot about Clutch Claw cause they nerfed some HZV from 80 to 65 cause they want you to tenderize them. If you're not doing so the hunt will take 2 minutes more - THE HORROR! However the clagger pose being shit is true. With fatty armour you need custom quests to enjoy endgame again or downgrade yourself.
    >Rise
    Good gameplay but suffers from too many counters, good roster, good maps but with way too much water and they tend to look baren, also absurd japanized and the lighting is fricked up. Toned down on cutscenes but brought Village for no reason back. Rampage are absolute ass, the game punishes you for NOT rushing through it and bing birds are annoying to collect. Endgame is boring af.
    >Sunbreak
    Adds much less than IB as the base isn't as terrible just boring. New Maps are really good and also look much better than the base game ones. Early MR is a pure slog duo to less new monsters and the game punishes you again for not rushing through it. Absurd amounts of (rng) grinding in the endgame and powercreep that however at the same time give you much more set building freedom. Endgame monsters are spastic af with explosions and counter/counters. Technically the endgame is "infinite" duo to RNG upgrading and charms giving you always a bit of space to improve your sets.

            the RAIN US server seems to be the biggest one, it buffs LR/HR slightly so you don't have 30 second hunts and adds keyquests to GR. But there are usually a few hundred people on daily. They have an installer for the game + patches in their discord

    Both are excellent games, but for me the best aspect is skinning monsters and making cool weapons out of their body parts. World fricked up in this aspect and ruined kino weapon designs like pic related. Still, start with World, Rise builds on the mechanics of World.
