MHFU Story: "A Tigrex wrecked your ass. You get into the village where you regenerate and slowly become a hunter. There are several threats, endangering the village - Khezu, Blangonga and at last Tigrex. You manage to kill the Tigrex, but this isn't all. You become a HR-Hunter and there is a top-secret Hunting Quest against Hypnocatrice. As you slowly become more and more skilled, you hear the first rumoirs about black and white gods. Right after finishing HR - and hunting monsters like Nargacuga, who is another top secret quest - at the village, your true potential gets noticed and the guild gives you the quest against Akantor. Then it's G-Rank, G-Rank, G-Rank with a buildup to Ukanlos - rumours here and there, and suddenly the whole village needs you. After killing Ukanlos you become a living legend."

MH4U Story:"The caravan picks up a random hunter, whose knowledge is neede at the very beginning, against a Dah'ren Mohran. You repel it, and enter the first village. As you slowly become accustomed to the life as a hunter, the Caravan moves on, they get to visit Harth. There, they meet a team of hunters, who are searching for a strange shadow. Harth's industry has collapsed, due to several monsters causing miners to disappear and the volcano not being active. You have to hunt some more monsters in the new area you get to explore. The Gypceros for the skin, the Nerscylla because it's a threat for the villagers and the Tetsucabra as he was the - supposed - cause for the volcano being inactive. The village's industry is revived as the volcano is active again. You and the caravan travel to the Cheeko Sands, but a strange new monster shows up - Gore Magala! You repel it and land on the Cheeko Sands. There it's protection of the village, etc. The three, now four hunters go and try to kill the Gore Magala, but get shredded. Only two hunters return - in the meantime you rescued some Felynes - and you are sent to repel the Magala once again and to rescue the two. You succeed and everyone thinks eberything is good. But soon some monsters start to freak out and get frenzied - the Gore Magala is still there. You are sent out to finally kill it, but it isn't dead. The Magala faked it out, and molts into Shagaru Magala. It greatly threatens Cathar, the new village you are currently in. After killing the Elder Dragon your caravan once again moves to a new Town - Dundorma. The town is currently recovering from an ED Attack, but an old enemy - Daora - appears. It lets the tonw alone, for a time. Time enough for a Defense Master to come to Dundorma. He needs several items for its buildings, including Rathian's. But during the hunt a Seregios interrupts everything. Why is it here? Shortly after, the frenzy starts again. The Seregios' appearance and frenzy outbreak have the same cause - Apex Seregios. You kill it, and the Daora shows up => Epic Final Fight! Then there's the guild with its upbuild to firstly Dalamadur. Then it's Ukanlos and then some G-Quests until Gogmazios!!

MHGen Story:"Yup, a new village. Kill some monsters here and there, complete some requests and... oh a mushroom quest? What could go wrong *BOOM* Glavenus. Oh, and there are some other villages too - *BOOM* Astalos at Egg Quest *BOOM* Gammoth at Gathering Quest *BOOM* Mizutsune at Bulldrome Quest. Yup, you need to kill these things and also the Glavenus. Final Fight. Oh, another Shagaru Magala showed up, kill it please. That's it. Ah, there are some HR Quests too. Why do I need to do this? Maybe we can get more tourists to visit our villages. The Gui...ahem Wycademy? LR, LR, HR3 *BOOM* Nakarkos. HR, HR, HR, what we didn't get rid of Nakarkos? Kill it please. You unlock some more monsters and a final, almost un-soloable ED. Ah and there are some pretty hard Deviant-Monsters, almost un-soloable without HR Gear."

I think it's true that MHGen has a bad story, or, better, no story at all.
