Glad to have you my friend! I have other videos showcasing some encounters from classic MH if you're interested. Quality is worse because all of this except my first Lao-Shan video is recorded from a real PS2 and I only recently invested in an upscaler for captures.
lol funniest part was that Ope and Unicron are roommates so they talked IRL and apparently decided that OpePossum would take out the small monsters, but as you can see in the video he quickly abandoned that task xD
@Lutyrannus "The only Monster Hunter game that was exclusively designed to be played by people who've never played MH before". Wow, such insight captain obvious!
Damn that online hub soundtrack so peaceful... the calm before the storm 😈 This was my first monster hunter game ahh the days of attacking with the right analog stick and moving the camera with the Dpad 😂
I really loved seeing this , brought back a lot of memories from the multiple flutes I would break in one use in MHFU, and me being the friend who would hit the others with the charge lance seeing you get hit gave me a lot of flashbacks. The fight was uncoordinated and wild but it’s the kind of playing you would miss in multiplayer hunts. Happy hunting!
funny trivia! in 3:27 forward, you can hear "Mesa para dos, abajo del sitio", that phrase traducted to English would be like "A table for 2, ground floor" as referring to a restaurant. Its not that important but it was surprising to hear a Spanish voice on a mh game!
Aww...Wish I could get back that feeling of experiencing Kirin for the 1st time 😊! Kirin literally made my little sister change her main weapon from DB to LS. lol. Since she kept getting hit by lightnings during Demon Dance 😅 .. "Sorry dying irl" 😂 Y'all sure captured the experience alright! GG, Lunae, Unicron, & OpePossm
This is amazing, man. I don't know how you did it. You probably have a video already explaining it. But this is why I hope in the future capcom will do two options, options remastered all 4 main monster hunter games and add each generation to each game, and fix all glitches and bugs. Or option 2, remake.
@@Lutyrannus I'd love to join, but unfortunately, I don't have the right setup. I played the original game on my ps2, and I could imagine fatalis, kirin, and Lao shan Lung are all locked away in the online option.
Recently i just came back playing Mhrise after 1 yr hiatus lol... seeing the old gen Mh does give me the nostalgic feeling even though my first Mh game was Freedom unite. Keep up the content u have my sub 👍🏼
Fml this is such a majestic place wtf I just cant. The music, the buildings the sounds this is truely epic. To bad my very first MH was 22nd G. I would have lived this so much
I remember plugging in my USB keyboard to my PS2 and going on blue server in this game when I was in middle school. It was kinda my social life for awhile. We had some forums and AIM chat groups where we would talk when we weren't in the game. I got to HR19 or 20.
It is really cool to see the older monhunt games getting private servers. I played the original monhunt but could never defeat the Rathalos. MH3 is my first game which I played to death
Somehow those PS2 games looks much more appealing to me than most of new games. Maybe it's because that kind of graphics triggers more imagination or something, but definitely looks dope AF! Thanks for sharing! Wish I had ps2 at the time when it came out:D
My first Kirin I had in Monster Hunter Freedom, in the jungle and I loved the experience. The fact that you bounce off except when you hit the head, was exciting. I was using the Iron Katana Gospel I think.
That's just something you have to accept with Hammer against a small monster like Kirin lol. But Hammer is too good against Kirin not not use it. Plus I had easily the highest Attack weapon out of anyone and if I hadn't been hitting Kirin out of fear of tripping we'd have been there forever.
I remember when i was a wee lad. I had some dental surgery done on me and i was drowsy from the anesthetic. Mom took me to a local video game store to treat me for not being fussy. Thats how I got to play Monster hunter. Oh the memories
I never got to play it online, but I got this game completely by chance after seeing the cover and that it was by Capcom on October 2004 and ran up like 500 hours in my offline account.
I was never really an MH fan, but this video popped up in my feed and it looks fun. Kinda been waiting on a sale for MH Rise to play with a friend and see what the series is about. But also may boot up an emulator and try this, especially if it has an active community.
I think the first MH game is a great place to start! It's easily the simplest game and also the only one that was exclusively designed to be played by newcomers. If you try it out, join the Discord in the video description.
@@BalthazarB2 it has to be the Japanese version, but the Discord I linked has an almost 100% complete English translation patch.

This guide should be a good starting point! ruclips.net/video/dkAxvmP2dTw/видео.html Honestly there's so much to it all that I can't explain it in-depth, but the hardware and software I use is as follows: PlayStation 2 softmodded, running the English-patched ISO from OPL (Open PS2 Loader) Official network adapter being used to play online RetroTINK 5x Pro being used as my upscaler Recorded in OBS (1440 x 1080 resolution) Edited in DaVinci Resolve

Kirin or Qilin actually are dragons/wyverns even if Monster Hunter previously didn't consider them as such :D they're a legitimate creature in East Asian folklore which I'm guessing is where the inspiration came from. I think their other cryptozoological classification is a chimera.
All I was saying is that MH Kirin in particular wasn't called an Elder Dragon in the first game, and the closest thing is its alias of Phantom Beast. I wasn't referring to the mythological Kirin at all.
@@slaaneshi the point that he's making, is that there is a MH specific classification of monsters called "Elder Dragon". It's specific to the MH universe. And Kirin was thrown under that classification AFTER MH1. The Elder Dragon classificaton is completely separate from, and has nothing to do with the Kirin form Chines mythology.

Sorry I missed this comment until now, but the only times the health flute didn't work was because I was attacked while playing it.

In freedom he seems to be harder. I remember the last kirin quest... Slay 2 kirins on the battleground. I did it alone and i i needed x tries and raged so much 😅😂
@@henrychess3 hammer's max charge attack known as Super Pound will never bounce. It has ESP/Mind's Eye effect. Also the hammer uppercut move introduced from 3rd gen onwards has ESP/Mind's Eye effect. ESP/Mind's Eye prevents weapon bouncing.
Dumb question, but are you playing online on the PS2 or is some kind of online mod? And are the servers of this game still up and full or just a few playing?
No dumb questions my friend! This is a private server set up by fans that anyone can connect to. Official servers have been down since 2011 for the Japanese version of the game, 2007 for the western version. It does not requires any modding but it only works for the Japanese version of the game so you do need to patch the game into English if you want to be able to understand the text. Join the discord in the description if you're curious about trying it out!!
Really have love/hate thing with OG monster hunter, I mean, I loved em, but the newer games Quality of Life stuff is do great, specially from rise, but for me 4 ultimate still the best
ur an experience
Thanks Berry means a lot
Aww
"Did you two eat?" "Fuck" Ah, memories.
"Sorry was dying irl" is a mood
Just stumbled upon this today. What an atmospheric joy. Subscribed.

It really used to be like this in old school monster hunter 😂
"One of you two needs to focus on the minions"
"Decide amongst yourselves lol"
Spoken like a true og hunter.
lol funniest part was that Ope and Unicron are roommates so they talked IRL and apparently decided that OpePossum would take out the small monsters, but as you can see in the video he quickly abandoned that task xD
Wow the online Hub for mh1 is amazing
Minegarde is only bested by Dundorma, in my opinion. Loc Lac is also great but the 4-player hub size in the western version makes it feel way smaller
I’ll be honest every time I see poogie in mhw you saying “he requires a daily sacrifice of pets” always comes to mind
Bahaha that actually makes me happy
Watched this on a nice rainy morning. Very relaxing feeling to this video, reminds me of playing games with friends back in the day.
The homies really chose the original for their first MH, the absolute bravery
It's a good choice. It's the only Monster Hunter game that was exclusively designed to be played by people who've never played MH before.
