I have absolutely no issues with the gameplay, character/monster design, combat or anything like that. Monster Hunter games in my eyes are meant to be played together with friends and I doubt that this would be an unpopular opinion. The developers decided to make the main story missions of this game a terrible multiplayer experience. All players must individually seek out the monster, watch a cutscene, quit the …

Disclaimer: This review is meant for people new to the MH series, perhaps coming from Elden RIng/soulsborne. Also I consider the Iceborne DLC a part of the game, because the game is kind of incomplete without it - its like a second chapter rather than a standard DLC. If you like the base game, you will love the DLC. TLDR: 10/10, probably the best PvE game I have ever played. Definitely worth a try. I will try to …

Honestly, I don't get what the fuzz is all about... you get to hunt monsters, that's it? Fine, I'll whack some of the ugly bastards, it can't be that much fun— Oh, ♥♥♥♥ the hell, yes... It feels like I started playing yesterday, can't believe 1000 hours can fly by like that. It's honestly so much fun, addictive and varied. The gameplay mechanics are so... so... ugh~! 10/10

800 hours in and my therapist says I need to talk about something other than monster weaknesses. She is wrong. MHW is a certified masterpiece and I will die on this hill, specifically while a Rajang throws me off it. Every single weapon is a different game. The world breathes, the monsters have more character than most RPG protagonists and the Iceborne expansion said hold my Astera Jerky and doubled everything. …

Honestly this is better than wilds, it looks better its harder and most importantly RUNS BETTER

Players who liked Monster Hunter: World talk about addictive core loop of hunting, crafting, and repeating; those who didn't talk about multiplayer story missions require cumbersome cutscene synchronization. Which matters more to you?
Critics, per Wikipedia
Monster Hunter: World received "universal acclaim" from critics on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, and a "generally favourable" reception on PC, according to review aggregator website Metacritic. Reviewers generally praised the game for being able to retain and not sacrifice the core Monster Hunter formula while opening it up to be amenable for new players to the series, being able to take advantage of the higher processing power of consoles compared to handhelds to make the game's worlds feel more alive, though still noted that there are elements of learning the game mechanics and the difficulty curve that can still be somewhat daunting to inexperienced players. Prior to the game's release,…

The hunting, tracking, trapping, and research that goes into a hunt is such a peak experience. Yes, the areas can be a little tedious to run around in...but they're honestly small enough and you have enough traversal tools that it isn't really a problem?

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Developers removed ability to customize keybinds which left me unable to play. The original keybinds were horrendous to me so mine were heavily customized and without the simplicity I created I cannot personally play any longer. Also heard they removed custom keybinds from the newer titles so I never bothered to try them. Was a cool game. Cool players.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Every time I look into the cultural juggernaut that is Monster Hunter, I am struck with a baffling inability to parse why anyone would play this. I can see and respect the hooks the game has, but it seems demonic & spiteful & like a waste of my time on earth And then I realize I play Fighting Games
