User blog comment:TigrexJeff/First Impressions of MH3/@comment-757516-20100604145640

Well TigrexJeff I have no doubt that you're an awesome monster hunter. It was pretty hard for Barioth but I have to tell you that MFU spoiled everyone. I come from MH1 and played everything since that has hit the states. Starting off with armor is new. Infact what they did in MH3 is better than MH1. MH1 gave you enough z for leather armor or enough for 1 hunter armor. MH3 also gave you 2 weopons. 1 you got the 1st sword and shield. Offline was terrible as in basically nill. there was no farm for items only quests. Even Kut-Ku was a serious challenge for a while. As far as the areas you have to remember that MH3 takes place very far away from previous monster hunters.
