Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is an extended version of the bestselling Monster Hunter 3 published in 2009 for Nintendo Wii. The most popular game in Japan is an action role playing game based on the player engaging in huge encounters with hordes of horrible monsters, oftentimes of enormous sizes. The player needs to invent and implement his own strategies, preparing carefully for every single battle.
He needs to choose an appropriate weapon from amongst twelve of them, wear a good piece of armor and gather all the ingredients necessary to brew mixtures. You also need to get to know everything about your enemy’s weak and strong points and his habits. Sometimes, you don’t actually need to defeat the beast: in some missions you are needed to chase him away from a place he has taken over or to catch him. In the enhanced version, the bestiary clearly did get extended. Among the new monsters there are Barchydions, Jhen Mohran, Gold Rathian, Silver Rathalos, Nargacuga and Lagiacrus. Some of the previously existing beasts also received new types of attack and animations. Capcom has also put a lot of focus on improving the graphics and using all the advanced possibilities of WiiU.
The versions for WiiU and 3DS have shared save files. The plot is not much different in comparison to the previous installment. The player controls a hero employed by a guild. Following its orders, he has to defeat various monsters that pose threat to the harbor village called Janjia. In the game there are as much as two hundred quests and mission, but unfortunately only a small percent of those is new in comparison to the previous, not extended version. The game, though, is simply huge. For a fan, it will be a pile of content worth of a year’s gameplay, but a newbie may find himself unable to find himself in the world of the game.
