MHGU Training quests compared to newer entries

[Toxi]

I got into GU and I have to say, I'm kinda shocked at how comprehensive and encompassing the training quests in GU were, there's a tutorial for nearly everything in the game, cooking meat, fishing, gathering, the difference between item pouch, item box and guild box, combining items / crafting, transporting, slaying and even one for capturing monsters.

What do you all think, should these come back in future entries? many of these seem very transferable. You could argue that they may be a bit too much in them, but that's where you can condense a couple closely related quests together, like the expedition type quests, still, I'd say that it's better to be comprehensive than to be lacking.

One of the "flaws" of the MH games is that they have quite the long tutorials, always have, and as with most tutorials bad players simply ignore them anyways and end up at endgame being carried hard by other players all the same.

Anyways, as long as there is the option to skip it, yes there should be a tutorial for everything, that's what LR is for.

I get that, I ignored almost all tutorials in World save a few, but I think the reason why was that they felt disconnected or uninvolved from what I was doing at that time. GU tutorials are longer, but because they feel more involved and going straight to the practice, I find them a lot more useful and interesting. That's probably just some psychology of how learning comes to people.

Then like you said, shoving them into main missions doesn't do well either, so having them as training missions seems best and it's strange that they did away with them when they already had that going for the series.

I hope they figure something good out for the future. For me, it's been interesting going back and seeing this, as well as 14 Great Maccao fights times 7 hunter styles, all there for you for all your training needs.. ^^
