... I disagree.... The hit boxes make it harder than it actually is. But, they are also easier and more predictable than their mh4u versions. Does that make sense to you? It's hard for me to explain accurately. But as a quick comparison. Tigrex. While he was harder on the first encounter in fu vs his first encounter in 4u. That completely reverse by GRank. Tigrex is way easier in mhfu than he is in mh4u. Again that's GRank. All returning monsters are. Though the new moves change in AI and the fact that many are now more aggressive makes it harder for me. (rathalos went from being an easy joke to the second most frustrating monster to fight). I'd say 4u is harder in more ways than fu. But yes. Monster hunter is one of the harder games I've played.
