Oh that’s AWESOME! I’m sooo fuckin’ in. I’ve been playing MH since the first PSP game (and a jillion hours of 3rd after modding all my friends’ PSPs!) but I’ve never played the PS2 games. Thank you so much for teaching me about this! I have some PS2s I can mod that I haven’t got around to yet, but maybe I’ll just do computers, but I can for sure rope my partner into joining me!
Comment on Monster Hunter Dos doesn't like you (and that's okay)

Most people use emulators! There’s a weird bug on actual PS2 hardware that only lets 3 people do a quest at a time, plus having a keyboard for the chat at all times is really nice.

Welp that makes the choice easy! I assumed a keyboard on the PS2 would work—I remember loving EQ: Online Adventures on it hahaha.
I’ll see about getting it running on our computers today, I think. That sounds like an awesome time.
Thank you again for posting this! I like your writing style and as a longtime MH fan, I did not know this game existed. I assume it’s way more rough than even the first PSP game, but that okay with me! I like the spikiness of old MH games.

It’s rough but in an extremely charming way! The wiki is extremely helpful for pretty much every piece of info you need on the game. The MHoldschool discord is also a great resource for questions & general help - along with going online & asking folks.

Thanks, was looking for something like this! But does NTSC-J versions of … means it’s Japanese?

There’s a full english translation that works perfectly, no issues from my playthrough
