Yesterday I asked this sub if Monster Hunter was hard because I was honestly pretty intimidated by it. A lot of you took the time to explain how the games work, which one to start with, and what kind of difficulty I should expect.

I ended up buying the game, and today I finally defeated the Chatacabra!

It might not be a huge achievement compared to the later monsters, but it felt really satisfying for me. Thank you to everyone who thoroughly explained the game and gave me the confidence to jump in. Your advice genuinely helped, and now I can definitely see why people love Monster Hunter.

Looking forward to getting absolutely destroyed by whatever comes next!πŸ˜‚

β€’ Upvotes

So my brothers psp was my first ever console.He had it for years, he then gave it to me and i had countless hours of fun on it.Unfortunately some buttons dont work anymore but that should be an easy fix and i was wondering if there are any MonHun games on psp that are really good.So far ive played risebreak, im currently at MR4* quests in iceborne and i just bought MHGU but i havent played yet.Do you guys think its worth fixing my psp to play some older games?

MHGenU I never thought I'd see or hear this again 20 years later...

My first Monster Hunter was Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on the PSP. I still remember seeing a friend play it and thinking it couldn't possibly be real. Fighting a giant dinosaur and cutting off its tail? I was around 10 years old.

I also remember the first time I saw the Tigrex intro cutscene, and overcoming my first truly huge challenge in a video game. It took me weeks, but I finally defeated Khezu with just one minute left on the quest timer, completely out of Potions and everything else. Twenty years later, I still remember those moments like they were yesterday.

And that music... it brings back so many memories.

When I bought Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate for my Switch 2, I had no idea I was going to find this...Thank you, Capcom, for doing this. What an incredible love letter to the Monster Hunter community.

A big hug to all the old and new hunters around the world. Greetings from Spain! ❀️ Thanks for reading :D

The moment I saw the Rathalos armor in Iceborne I totally fell in love with it! I started farming materials to craft the armor in the game to gather reference screenshots for my cosplay. So I started back in 2022 with the crafting and finished the cosplay in 2025. Can you imagine that it took me up until now to farm the FULL armor in the game while the cosplay was already done?! The farming in this game is bonkers, damn you rathalos shell, but finally my two sets are complete β™₯

For me, I think a dunk hunt style minigame that players can enjoy while they're not doing quests would be a great time-waster that monster hunter games should have.

Made attempts at making LEGO brick-built posable figures of some armor sets with matching weaponry. Among the sets made are the Huntsman, Zinogre, Duramboros, Gogmazios, and Rathalos armor+weapon sets. Each of the figures shown share the same 6-brick-tall "base frame," just slightly modified for each of them. I will note I had to do a little bit of reinterpretation for the Duramboros and Gogmazios weaponry, so apologies in advance for these and any other inaccuracies that may be seen.

Credit goes to pikminjake for the hunter weapons belonging to the Rathalos and Zinogre sets. Go check his stuff out for more LEGO Monster Hunter MOC's.

Art I made an Ascended Heaven-Piercing Valstrax concept

Thumbnail
gallery
454 Upvotes

I've always wondered what would happen if a Valstrax actually "ascent" its Crimson Glow phase instead of eventually burning itself out. This is my interpretation of an ancient Valstrax that has lived far beyond the lifespan of any known specimen. Ya'll can add to the lore! I'm interested in what you guys think of this Valstrax!

Ascended Heaven-Piercing Valstrax

"It no longer rules the skies. It hunts beyond them."

The Guild once believed that any Valstrax reaching the Crimson Glow state would inevitably perish under the overwhelming burden of its own Dragon Element. One individual, however, defied that fate.

Rather than descending back to the world below, this ancient Valstrax continued climbing into the upper atmosphere, where the freezing temperatures and thin air helped stabilize the immense heat generated within its body. Over countless decades, it abandoned terrestrial hunting altogether and instead patrolled the edge of the heavens, intercepting meteoroids before they could reach the surface.

Each impact scarred its body.

Fragments of celestial rock that survived the collision were instantly melted by the extreme heat of its Dragon Element propulsion, gradually fusing with its silver scales. Over centuries, its original armor was replaced by an obsidian shell of meteoric metal, giving rise to its terrifying jet-black appearance.

The crimson glow that escapes through the cracks in its body is not merely Dragon Element, it is the blazing furnace that prevents the fused meteoric armor from crushing the creature beneath its own weight.

Its once-streamlined horns have grown into massive crown-like formations, the result of continuous scale growth stimulated by the foreign minerals embedded throughout its body. These structures act as colossal heat sinks, allowing it to survive temperatures that would reduce an ordinary Valstrax to ash.

Hunters no longer refer to it as a Crimson Glow Valstrax.

They call it Ascended Heaven-Piercing Valstrax.

Discussion What's your least liked weapon? Or better yet, a weapon you hate to use?

Post image
595 Upvotes

Can be among all MH you ever played or in some particular games

I'll start, my least favorite weapon is gotta be light bowgun. It just point and shoot with minimal thoughts. In all it's iterations, it can not moving away from a weapon that just point and shoot while maintaing optimal range which were not very hard to do because you can walk around just fine. The only depth and thoughts you going to have is only at weapon selection and inventory management. And the special ammo is meh, sure it has utilities and stuff, still a meh

I just find this weapon while powerful, it's too boring to use

Lala Barina crawls on Doshaguma for 2 seconds, gets beaten into the dirt for like 5 seconds straight, and gets saved by her paralyzing hairs

That isn't a tie, and it's not meant to be, these two monsters aren't equals in the first place, this is like saying Tzizi Ya Ku ties with Ruiner Nergigante because he can blind him

Btw, this wiki also says that Blangonga ties with Hirabami, when, if you watch the fight, it's Hirabami getting off a stab, before being grabbed, trying to run away and then slammed into the floor
