Nintendo Switch Getting Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate This Summer

@RSM-HQ: World is not confirmed to get G-rank at all although it will probably happen due to it's popularity. The leaked list however only has three more monsters were missing. Oroshi Kirin, Alatreon and Lunastra. One's a reskin with ice, One hasn't been seen since MHFU and it's a female blue Teo and the other is the only major one out of those three using the Daora model/skeleton.

@RSM-HQ:

Would love an Ultimate version of World but as far as I'm aware there is no confirmed information on that. Care to share your source on that?

As for added mechanics that's your opinion, and not one I share, and so it doesn't change my personal excitement in the slightest. Not to mention one of the Hunter styles is the standard style and so classic gameplay is unaffected.

As for different teams; not something that bothers me in the slightest. Gen was simply an accumulation of previous games, the game engine was exactly the same, the Monsters were exactly the same, the movesets slightly improved, Game mechanics the same depending on Hunter style chosen as previously stated.

Was Gen little more than a greatest hits, yes it was. Did it change anything negatively, not in my experience, was there more content than a standard generation, absolutely.

Am I any less excited about this because someone has a different opinion than me, hell no.

@gamingdevil800: I've played MHFU and MHP3 both on an emulator with a PS4 pad and I can tell you the difference in difficulty between those games was huge. Not so much because of the controls, I've had the camera mapped to the right stick for both games, but because MHP3 made huge improvements to hit boxes and other stuff. In MHFU you'd get hit most of the time when visually you were out of range, that's what made the earlier games so hard. MHP3 greatly reduced all the clunkiness and made the game actually fair.

@gamingdevil800:

PSP and 3DS controls were undoubtedly terrible and a big impact on difficulty, Switch ofc shares controls with the dual analogue scheme; however, difficulty wise G-Rank is undoubtedly more challenging for more than just controls so can't wait for it.

As for content yeah the accumulation of work of 4 generations of games is the reason there is more content than World, but I'm not going to be exclusive to World simply from sympathy for it's youth. I shall most definitely be buying every version of Monster Hunter on any platform it comes on, and the future is bright for World. But that's time away yet, we won't be seeing a World 2 for years.

As for visuals from PS2, erm!! You could put a screenshot of the Switch version next to PS2 for a comparison but combined with the frame rate it is considerably better, not to mention the hideous UI that took 2/3rds of the screen!
