MHX: Why Nargacuga is Special

[@ArekkzGaming]

Love Narga! The Deep Darkhammer was my favourite weapon in Freedom Unite.

[@ahmedq654]

I really like the switch axe in MH4U. it's a relic weapon witch you can only get from guild quest. I really love the para hacks and the ice. it looks awsome to!

[@PokeShirley]

[@nyandesuka1169]

***** I remember when i was playing MhFU i remembered i 1st killed narga (with dijin i think)... Omg it felt so good. But i couldnt kill it after that haha

[@DGP406]

***** >Not the Imperial Gun Hammer Spark Come on Arekkz, don't let me down man

[@KenjiTheSnek]

It was the first monster I tried in the special quests in mhfu with my brother, it was a super challenge as we were skeptical about fighting it at all, my bro dropped out half way and i stayed, losing of course since I was low level. It was still the hardest to fight while I played.

[@Sexyforanerd22]

I have fallen in love with Nargy's roar. I love the trill of it.

[@woahasmurf7878]

If you like his roar then listen to my fart

[@febrianaljam2517]

Me of course.. im feel so hype

[@Badgerrs]

Rodrigo Domingos i doubt its a new monster. Only one monster has that signature eye trace, roar, and tail whip attack. And thats Narcaguga, is a bitch to farm in freedom unite ( I started with freedom unite on the psp).

[@galaxyszhire789]

Nargacuga is a good example of PERFECT monster design, it's a black flying bat-like panther dragon that moves like a ninja !! I'm hyped to hunt it again in MHX. Good video Gaijin Hunter btw

[@Scorptice]

What Nargacuga is for a lot of people is Lagiacrus for me!

[@TMOSP1]

***** Unfortunately we wont be getting Lagiacrus back until they find a way to make water work better. I wish they would bring Ivory back in MHX, but I doubt they'd bring in a subspecies without the base monster. At least Agnaktor is back, so one of the Leviathans is returning. (Hopefully some Brute wyverns come back as well 'cause 4U only had 2 of them)

[@Scorptice]

***** I actually enjoyed the swimming in Tri a lot... although I understand that it might be unoptimized.

[@joaomesquita3069]

+Darren Tonkin god help me if lagi came back and fought like najarala. i like lagi enough to not have him in mhx if that was the case.

[@Gatchu137]

***** I think he could come back and still be very enjoyable. We had zamtrios in 4u and it was obvious that he could be a water monster. Besides, we all saw that ivory lagi was still a huge threat even without water. And I think that since Agnaktor is back and the leviathan monster type is back, it would be dumb to only have one leviathan. I know bubbles will also probably be a leviathan and nibblesnarf is as well, but its not like they'll cut monsters out of the games entirely just because they're not enjoyable at first.

[@hydrationrequirement9762]

This is my first MH game. So according to this video, people hyped about this monster because of its tail attack. Is that correct?

[@JimTrivial]

the hype is because its an all around great fight. Every time you get hit it feels like you made the mistake instead of some wonky hitbox manipulation. Its one of the least BS hunts Ive personally found. Also the weapons and armor are pretty decent, especially weapons that utilize decent affinity well.

[@AlfonsoSRT]

So many new comments about nargacuga being in MHW next year.

[@gavinerickson9392]

I can't say I like narga because of nostalgia (mostly because I was unfortunate enough to have played the original Monster Hunter as my first), but at the time narga was unique in that he didn't just insta charge or beam spam (plus his hitboxes weren't as terrible as the rest) and was Capcom's first step in the right direction in terms of monster design. Narga isn't my favorite monster but we owe him for the changes he influenced.

[@ThatsOk83]

Gavin Erickson His tail swing is bs

[@jamieryan6991]

[@dmmnjaws]

When you said, about MHFU: "this was the title where many monster hunter veterans in the west where born" I realized I have been playing for 10 years and just now on my fourth entry of the game (mhxx) learned to use the dual blades properly. Kinda interesting how a series stays with you in such a way you're still giving yourself the freedom of learning stuff that was always there but was left "unlearned". I'd say the most traumatized I've been by a monster in Monster Hunter was when I first fought Tigrex, and it was a double Tigrex quest on top of that, in MHFU. I tried countless times, to no avail. From timeouts to tripple carts, what saved me on that quest, I remember well, was farming a previous double Nargacuga quest on the Great Forest, to get it's armor. And that was also one of my first Nargacuga hunts. It's interesting how even after not playing for a year or two, Nargacuga's moves were burned in the mind, enough you feel like you know the monster almost as if you were him, and you still know exactly what he's gonna do next. Such a big turning point, and just, as mundane as it was, in a way, you know, grab the PSP, hunt a couple of Nargacugas and Tigrexes, left some fond memories. And it's kinda fun because if you look at it from the outside it's just a kid sitting in a chair playing in his PSP, what's so special about what he's doing? Looking back, seeing the countless hours of entertainment I got from playing Monster Hunter games, I realize MHFU was one of, it not the most well spent money ever!

[@e3eb]

[@lunaticshock-nero690]

I born on freedom, and I fell in love with MH series, I still remember how Kutku was a pain in the ass the first time, and how I get so fucking hyped when I faced rathalos for first time omg, my favorite monster, after I discovered MHFU my life was changed because gun lance and that guy, yeah that guy on the intro was my next objective that shining eyes were so spectacular for me especially seeing it in game the effect on PSP was truly beautiful at that time :') I can't believe how this franchise grow up, "Eternal Hunter" ^-^

I think narga was the only monster I wouldn't mind fighting a thousand time to get mantles/heavenly scales (am I the only one that thinks that heavenly scale is better than mantle? It sounds cooler at least .-.) He was fun, fast, adorable and his weapons had incredible designs. Also, you forgot to mention that in MHFU/MH2G, he was the urgent for G2 (?), so you new that this guy was gonna kick ass ;) Also... Lucent was epic, but his spikes were so damn annoying... you could be in the opposite corner and the spikes would still reach you and poison you on top of that. He was also the one that made me start using the kelbi bow because I was unable to break his face/wings ;.;

Nargacuga really stands out from the other monsters on MHFU. You can really see how the devs had improved the detailing and animation, as well as the hit boxes from the previous version of the game. Side stepping his tail swipe without evasion also feels so nice, even though its pretty easy to do.

[@ZorillaMyrid181]

Nargacuga is special because he’s mah boi.

[@joaomesquita3069]

i didn't play freedom unite, but in 4U, i used narga's armor set and it got me through most of g rank, to the point i "bonded" with it. it also looked very cool. and it would be nice if there were more of those videos about other monsters, just like there was the one about the guild emblem.

[@squidpizza6320]

There is one on the guild crest, actually.

[@ArceusDX]

Nicholas Cuevas He meant he wishes there were more videos like the guild crest one, just about the monsters instead.

ArceusDX exactly. i mean, some monsters are references to various creatures from our world's mythologies or a fusion of real world animals. a series of videos that focused on clarifying such stuff would be nice.

[@joaomesquita3069]

and i agree with gaijin that there's something special about the flagship monster of the first mh you play and how you sorta "bond" with it. mine was 3U and lagi fights were fun ones, despite underwater sections and not having played past low rank.

[@AdamRossWatchorn]

jp mesquita Do you still have 3U? If you've played 4U now, you can play through 3U ;) Narga is in there too, so you can experience one of everyone's favourite monster! :D I didn't play 2G till after 3, but narga is still in my top 2. :)

[@Animaniafreak]

I'm going back to all your older videos and it's fun reading up on the MH history, hopefully we'd be able to see more of them in MHW!

[@psinjo]

interestingly, narga was NOT in my starting game, i started on tri, and my favorite monster from tri was Quropeco (don't judge, after getting sent to fight great jaggi like 10x, i was extatic to fight ANYTHING ELSE) i managed to get my hands on a ported over version of 3portable, and narga was there... and green narga... and i fell in love with the bad ass dragon - cat - bat -thing... wheras mobs like rathalos are all RAAAR FEAR MY SCARIENESS!!! narga is just like 'please... i don't need to be big... I JUST EAT YOUR FACE!!!" it was also my first experience with dual blades, and the combination of green narga giving something like evasion + and stamina drain down + attack (gems op) combined with dualies was just amazing... i fought that thing so many times... never got to fight lucent though... for me, narga was a great tonal shift of the giant "fear me" big mobs i was used to, sure he was scary, but it was in a batman way compared to something like tigrex who literally just screams at you a lot, similar idea with shageru magala, but that's more on the 'mystery' side, of 'wtf is going on with this guy'

[@Consolous]

Quropeco is cool because he is like the monster form of the hunting horn which I love (which got taken out in Tri, stupidly)

[@psinjo]

that too, it about blew my mind when he 'roared' and called for help from a rathian. (almost shit myself*) lol

[@the0sanitydokutah967]

Sorry to disagree with you but I hate qurupeco ,one of my hated monster, (PS: my most hated is gigginox and its giggis) for 3 things: 1) it acts like a spoiled brat especially when it gets angry 2) I hated its attacks especially the one where it lights fire with its wings 3) when it calls a much bigger threat monster than itself like jho

Narga and his armor was simply my favorite by design. It looked like a rad mix between a cat, a bat, and a dragon, and like you mentioned, it taught me a lot of the evasion skills I know now, and completely turned the hunting style I had before completely on its head. I only just got a Wii U a couple weeks ago and never owned a Wii, so I never had MH3U online capabilities and I never made it to Lucent Narga. I hope they bring it in MHX so i can finally experience it myself instead of vicariously on KZbin

Coming from the future where I was a MH World noob, facing Nargacuga in Generations/X was probably my hook in loving the MH games of the past, since, while I was fighting lethargic, slow monsters and not really digging the more restrictive moveset, Nargacuga basically said to me "Dodge or die." and that's what I ended up doing, even after playing near over a hundred hours in world, this cool looking, badass monster was still kicking my arse and teaching me to get better. I gotta respect it for that. Basically, it's just a really well made fight that I enjoyed a lot.

[@Nidolord777]

Seeing Nargacuga on the front of Freedom Unite is what made me get the game in the first place. I love sleek monsters, so Nargacuga was a nice change compared to Rathalos and Yian Garuga, who are badass monsters in their own right, but just had times where they were merely aggravating due to their poison and constant windpress. My next game was 4U, which I've almost 100% the achievements in, and Nargacuga armour ended up being my go-to armour for my playstyle with Switch Axes. Heck, I still use it to fight lv 140 guild quests, and I'm sad the hidden axe ended up being a relic weapon. My girlfriend got me 3U for my birthday and I'm just about to reach Nargacuga again. This monster just made everything I loved about playing monster hunter, from the roar to the evasion learning curve it presented. I'm so glad to see Narga back in MHX, I can't wait for it to hit the west.

[@ledx9474]

Gaijin=outsider Gaijin hunter=every weeaboos worst nightmare

[@TheCrankMachine]

3u was my first game, and when I first started playing, I looked up trees for all the weapons, looked at all the late game armor, when I stumbled across the Eclipse Tone. It almost spoke to me, like I knew that was my dream weapon, and I wanted it with gigginox armor set because it seemed optimal for what I wanted. I told my friend who introduced me into the game and he said "Oh, that's a Lucent weapon." I asked, "What's a Lucent?" And all he would say is that I'll have to wait and see. like a hundred hours later I finally got to fight it, and I immediately fell in love with it. Such a fun and tricky fight. The eclipse tone was within reach, but I had the worst luck. I had to fight it over 50 times to finally get the part I needed, and I never got tired of the fight. My Palico in 4u is named Lucent and I spent like 30 minutes trying to get it to look as close to the real thing as possible XD I was so sad I couldn't fight my old friend in 4u, or even trade into parts for its weapon.

[@thescarecrow897]

what do you mean remember monster hunter freedom Unite. I dont fucking remember it, I still play it

[@Zolrain]

I started on Monster hunter Unite before Freedom came out and because of this Narga(Diablos being my second favorite) became my all time favorite. I actually hunted over a thousand nargas because the fight never got old. I was always feeling powerful fighting it and he just felt like one of the greatest challenges you could get.I always wore the full narga set and that's what got me into the evade lancer style and loved it ever since. I onestly hope to god we get to have a Narga as a monster buddy in that Monster story spin off game. It would really bring a lot of old memories and just make me downright happy..

Dunno why i just found this, nearly 6 years later. I also started with MH Freedom Unit, and Narga is still my favorit Monster. Green, Lucent or Silverwind, it does not matter. This monster was my first Flagship, and it is still one of the most fun fight for me to this day.

[@Obelion_]

this might be very unpopular, but i didnt like him in mhfu. i felt like it was a reskin of tigrex, and i really hated tigrex (because he always combo killed me with his charge, which i still think is really bad design, nowadays you can stay on the ground, which makes it a lot better)

Were you high when you fought him by chance? Narga doesn't move like any other monster.

yes but his body is basically a reskin of tigrex, as gaijin said

I really, really don't want him, I'd rather a Goldbeard/Regular Ceadeus double fight. Also, can I finally get to play a game with Narga and Tigrex in them at the same time? Please? I missed out on FU, and it would be _awesome_ to have both.

[@aninymouse1651]

***** Narga and Tigrex will both be in MHX.

[@themightypicklerex7688]

***** they need to nerf the way those poison spikes fly out.

[@NackDN]

***** You know what we need instead? Molten Tigrex and Lucent Nargacuga double quest. On 4U's Tower, not the large 3U one. Also, instead of poison, Lucent now gives Bleed.

[@aninymouse1651]

Sounds intense. I'd like it.

[@themightypicklerex7688]

Nack Firestorm calm down satan.

[@gearturtle1676]

I started with 4u and the Tetsucabra was the first monster I farmed and made armor out of, I was really new to the game and learning it's attack patterns and improving each fight really felt accomplishing. The toads armor is also very cool looking and made the cutscenes and story much more satisfying.

[@Prolink]

I will always resent Nargacuga as MHTri was my first game and in Tri Ultimate Nargacuga's inclusion made Barioth worse.

[@haloeightYT]

Smith Word. Barioth definitely one of my favorites, but I only found him fun in Tri. It greatly disappointed me how radically they changed him for the worse after his first appearance.

[@vaannebilim]

+Smith agreed barioth in tri was fun to figth as narga is but bigger. the onli think that anoys me are the small tornadoes from s. barioth

[@mattyboomstix5945]

Touching on the point that Gaijin made that MH is another universe that we can escape into. For example, I have chronic pain issues and when I started playing 3U I had depression problems and I wasn't able to get to school most days. I always thought of myself in the game as a jolly hammer-man xD, and one could say, my other self. And that impacted on my life a lot, I started getting to school more, I started getting out more and I became much happier. And even in real life I started acting like my in-game self. MH was a life-saver for me :).

[@teavis2762]

Back here today after Nargacuga confirmed for MHW

[@TheSkullkid777]

Imho, my favorite poster boy of the series is the zinogre, I don't know what it is, but there is alwasy something charming about figthing this monster that has this charged up mode with really quick moves and electricity coming out everywhere. Theres also the fact that you can catch bugs on his back and that's cool

[@bindrp2]

Great video gaijin, please do more of these types of videos with the history and habitat/behavior etc of the monsters!

[@clockwork204]

My favorite monster in the whole series! The design, roar, gameplay, theme... I love everything about it! XD

[@ClassyPersian053]

My first game into the series was been MH3U on the 3DS, and my friend who got me into it said that they felt like Nargacuga was going to be my favorite monster once I encountered it. I started saying Lagombi was adorable, then Barioth the snow leopard monster (he reigns second on my list now), but once I met Nargacuga I fell in love with it. He's a black cat bat dragon monster and a very kickass looking one at that. His theme is amazing, its attacks are unique and it's overall a graceful looking monster to watch when you're not being pummeled too much. I am SO excited to see Narga coming into Cross now since I've really been missing him in 4U. Tigrex has grown on me, but he still isn't a Barioth or a Narga.

[@oshiria]

3U was my first and from the start I knew I like Nargacuga, he just felt so different from the others, his aggression was new to me and beating him made me feel accomplished

[@Etherwinter]

I knew about Nargacuga loooong before I played Monster Hunter for the first time (MH4U). I always liked how it looked. It reminded me of a panther. Sleek, black fur, piercing eyes, swift movements. I really hope MHX makes it across so I can tango with it and face it with my favourite weapon (CB). And speaking of Charge Blades, I hope there's a Narga CB.

[@FaytKion]

Despite my first game being MHF2, Narga is my favorite fight. It was always such a back and forth with Narga and my Dual Swords. The first time I beat it in G rank in FU was down the last minute and I finally got it low enough to cap as well as it being my final cart. Just seeing that swipe at me while jumping into that trap always left an impression in me. Now, I've gotten to the point where I barely even use a mega potion on it and I'm dodging like a champ.

[@strawberrycollector]

"There's something incredibly special about the flagship monster from the game that got you into the series." I totally agree. I'm an OG hunter from the latter years of MH1. I recall getting the game before Freedom 1 but not really getting into it until I got online following its release. So, for me, Rathalos is incredibly important. I'm glad Narga is back too, its definitely one of my favorites to fight.

[@x2s7]

Guys, can you all clarify me on something? I see the reset camera to monster feature in 1:58 but I remember MHP2G PSP didn't have that feature? Did I miss something? was it in the settings or something?

[@fenrirnevermore]

Brilliant new series sir!! You should consider doing these types of videos for a few other monsters!! Namely Jinouga and Rathalos who happen to be other flagships as well (but i'm sure you already knew that :D) Love your content by the way. Cheers and may the Hunt be ever in your favour \m/

[@nex_randomness6493]

I too found it so difficult, to the point of stress and frustration when this monster was released. But it felt great when I finally overcame it. I'm kinda disappointed though on how I feel like they really nerfed Naruga Kuruga when it came out on the succeeding renditions of the series. I've been playing since MH2 and I know how the most of the monsters feel when we had no mounting, hunting styles and arts. So I can attest to myself at least that the Naruga feels weaker in the current editions of the franchise. I've only played up to MHXX at this point though. I am looking forward to the release of the Iceborne though, can't wait till later today..

[@keen96]

I just love fighting him! That fight is so incredibly fun once you know him like the palm of your hand. I recall doing some perfect runs on him and all, I hope my knowledge of the fight is still there if MHX comes here.

[@nicholascobalt4579]

I started on 3u and therefore never got to understand the hype, but now i do! I like how you distinguished tigrex and narga by their movements, wish you or maybe someone else could disect and analyze similar monsters like that and make them more special :)

[@azrizolkiflee627]

Sweeet! I never played tri but i did play mhfu. Narga was my first real wall and was the monster that really taught me not to be greedy with my attacks. Seeing narga really brings back the good memories i had in mhfu and nightmares of the dual plesioth quests....

[@robertbaker2273]

I was born in generations and the nargacuga instantly took my heart also my sanity and happiness with how hard it was

[@Dirtnap12]

Everything about the Nargacuga is just so well designed. And that roar... It's like primal savagery manifest in sound, In my opinion it's on the level of the T-rex roar from Jurassic park, just feels good to hear.

[@SeargentFirestone]

Narga for me was the beginning of a new kind of enjoyment for MH. It was the first really fast monster that taught me to always be on edge. Now in MH4U I appreciate the fast and agile monsters like Seregios the most out of all of them, it's just the most fun to have these monsters jump around unpredictably and having to react to all the potential threats while searching for openings to attack.

[@TheTroubleshooter]

+Lance Flare its too bad steve was the apex disapointment of the 4u

[@DerLeichensoldat]

I'm so glad they bring it back. Was super dissapointed when they didn't in 4U because I felt it would have fit in so nicely with the new elevation.

[@evilhealer]

I just realized, this was uploaded on my birthday, and it's a video about my favorite monster too

[@MagusDouken]

To me, it was the music. It had a very James Bond-esque style to it, which complimented the design, speed, and swiftness the beast brought to the table.

[@Blaze-jd6vg]

hey, I wish I had seen your question as to why Narga was so special. To me he was so special because I loved fighting Narga for the first time in monster hunter 3 ultimate. At the time I had a habit of trapping monsters in pitfall traps and using bombs to weaken them. But since he was immune to pitfalls when he wasn't enraged. I was always so confused and it was fun to step out of my comfort zone and loved fighting him and getting used to his fast movements and it was incredibly satisfying to ko him and wail on his big black but until he died. I love Narga and am so glad he is returning on MHX.
