Yes, this is exactly what MH has always been like.

I had the exact same experience as you when I was new in MHFU, and low rank Tigrex was the biggest wall I ever remember facing in any of my childhood games. When I finally brought it down it was one of the greatest moments of my life. But few fights in MH have ever approached that level of challenge ever again.

And that was not because fights got easier, that is because I got more experienced.

MHFU was so fun. I don't remember the Tigrex stonewalling me much, but there was a HR mission to fight a one horned Diablos. That quest wrecked me. Think it was called One Horned Devil

The worst one was one diablos and one monoblos ! God that quest was hard to do on time

Fun fact, the One Horned Diablos is actually a G rank scaled diablos

Yea I found out after the fact. That Diablos still haunts me lol

I once was the noob clanking a yellow sharpness long sword against a congalala and panicking against a khezu for the same reason.

I don't expect to have the same experience in the new game.

I've been replaying MHFU since my last memories of it were extremely old and I'm getting walled by low rank Tigrex lol. Be it bow or GS, if he was alone I could manage but the constant interruptions by random wildlife and hanky zone geometry keep forcing me onto the path of his charge...

But I thought according to the person you’re replying to low rank shouldn’t be a problem for a veteran hunter 🤔

Well, as it turns out I just had World MR brainrot and completely forgot I could just abuse mechanics like flashes and traps, + I'm not good with a controller Edit: I'm also basically a fiver, I played both MHFU when I was extremely young and 4U when I was a teen but I never went past high rank in both

I'm so grateful we don't have to deal with bullfango charges anymore, holy shit...

Me: I will stay in an appropriate position to be able to dodge to the left when the Tigrex charges and lure it into walls for more damage opportunities
The pernicious Blango: :-o

For me my first wall was the khezu. I don’t remember what armor I was wearing but god the damage of the standing still electricity ⚡️!!

Tigrex? My wall was the khezu urgent quest, boy what a struggle that was for 12 year old me. Recently went back to MHFU and it was a complete cake walk. No real challenge until G Rank.

Barroth in MHtri for me and a buddy of mine. Literally everything after that when I was like 9 was pretty easy (save for events and ‘super ultra endgame’ shit.)

And that was not because fights got easier, that is because I got more experienced.

Why can't it be both? I had the same experience as you, beating LR tigrex in MHFU and it was a challenge, and I'm sure even today it would be much harder than any LR quest in World or Rise. I do think the games got easier, which can be a good thing, as long as there's still challenge at some point (and I'm sure there'll be, and imo it's good that players are asking Capcom to increase difficulty)
