This week, I will be talking about Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate. MHGU was one of two games I bought for the Nintendo Switch. MHGU is a single player RPG, so it’s very similar to games like Skyrim. When you first start the game, you create your character. The first thing I noticed was alright graphics. It wasn\u2019t bad, but it wasn\u2019t great either. It looks similar to an upscaled SWTOR game in my opinion. In terms of story, this game has next to none of it. The best you get is a semi-tutorial. I say semi-tutorial because they don\u2019t explain the crafting, Palicos, movement, fighting mechanics, etc. I didn\u2019t even know how to sprint until I played around with the controls with a bit. However, I looked into this and apparently most MH games are like this with the exception of MHW. I\u2019m kind of disappointed that there is no real story, but that wasn\u2019t the main reason I bought the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead of a story, you get to take on quests. These quests can range from gathering materials to hunting giant monsters. From the monsters, you can collect rare material, which can be used for creating armors and weapons. I was actually overwhelmed by the weapon system at first. In the game, there are over 10 weapon classes, and each class has a wide range of weapons. Suffice to say, there are a lot of options in terms of weapon customization, something I enjoy. However, my favorite piece of equipment are the Palicos. Palicos are basically bipedal cats, that are very cute. If you didn\u2019t know already, I\u2019m a cat person. Overall, I really like this games selection of equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So far, I haven\u2019t played as much as I would have liked. In terms of how far I have progressed, I\u2019m still in the beginning stages of the game. The quests are generally ranked by stars, ranging from 1 to 7. I\u2019m still doing 2-star quests, so I haven\u2019t fought any big monsters yet. However, from the youtube videos of people hunting, it looks very exciting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the end, I really like the game so far. MHGU has a lot of weapons, armor, and cats to choose from. In the future, I would like to reach the coveted G rank, which are special quests above the 7 stars. Maybe in the future, I will get MHW. They say the experience is very different but the core gameplay is the same. Overall, I want to continue playing MHGU and don’t regret the buy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
