The Official Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Topic

Going to get this game on friday. I swear to god if this game is terrible I'm going to hang all of you.

Just make sure you try every weapon type before you decide on one, they're all very different, distinct, playstyles.

And also what Chicocl said, especially the part about waiting until you at least beat Lagiacrus. Otherwise the game is still trying to teach you how to play. The tutorial isn't the best, you learn from doing.
