I will play base Monster Hunter 4 eventually whether or not an English patch is released, so I suppose yes.

I personally dont see the point in going back to 4, even if it was in english.
The only difference between both games that i can think of (Exept the whole g rank thing) is that CB is missing a few moves.
Id rather try out 4G to expierience some of the JP only event quests!

That is understandable, but I think it is still worth. For what I know the game has more differences in the meta so it may be better than we think. Anyway I suggest anyone that never played MH4U to play MH4 because you can always transfer to 4G later.

I'll give it a playthrough but I probably won't bother with 4G, I'm not particularly interested in the exclusive event quests. I do love playing charge blade so I am interested in seeing it's original version.

the only difference is youll be running lvl80 high rank frenzied guild quests instead of g rank apex lvl140s, so no, i dont see any reason to play mh4 over mh4u

I literally just asked the same question a year ago in the MH Old School server and I have been convinced to play this game by a random person. And now after playing the game and still yet, I do not regret.

t's a lot different when you only focus on meta; since I've been playing this game generally with an insane speedrun teamgroup (composed of a 4 Japanese and 1 European who was more or less the leader) It's amazing how cool they can make this game look, like what I mean is many of the runs we did were very different than MH4U/MH4G ones, the run strategies were in creative pace (something that is lacking in MH4U CO-OP speedrun world according to them, since you get punished a lot if you try doing the same run strategy on a LVL140 GQ or in G rank because monsters have big status resistance and a bag of HP) and what I've come out in summary is that this game requires more genius and more thinking than MH4U speed strategies.

Of course I just got lucky meeting these cool people which effectively made me enjoy the game, I still don't know what would be my rating toward this game If I played it alone with online randoms.
May be you won't experience the same thing as I did, especially if you are more of a casual hunter. But here is at least my experience with this game and I can admit that this title has many different things than MH4U/4G.

Hopefully a patch later on. :D

I want to experience each game independently, so yeah.

My intention is to play it and catalog the differences between the 4 and 4G once i transfer my save and finishing both.
I feel that it will help more people to know more about each game good and bad points, and also guide them in choosing what will be the best experience for them in the long run (after finishing the main story).
