Seems to me World is still the best Monster Hunter. And it looks so much better than this! I remember watching World running on PS4 on youtube and it looks superb, colorful and the world was living with plenty of things. This looked so dull and gray from the first footage.

What in the actual fuck is capcom doing with its biggest franchise??!


I've only played a little as I didn't review it, but our reviewer mentioned they pretty much stayed in Low Rank Rathlos armor the whole game (even in the endgame fights), so it is a little too easy for series regulars for now.

From what I gathered, Capcom seems to want people to finish LR and transition into the real MH experience: aka HR/MR.

I remember playing MHFU back in the day when I was a stupid kid and abandoning it due to the steep learning curve. I came back with World which even in HR was a mighty proposition for a newbie like me, and then I rushed to Sunbreak in Rise.

This game might be breaking the "your first MH will always be the hardest" as it was in the past.

maybe is a review build with lower difficult ?

idk man, LR being easy is OK , but HR needs to give us some challenge, its seems that they dumbed down the RPG mechanics and grind of the game, like you don't need to grind that thunder res armor to stay alive against Kirin for example, guess we'll need to wait till 28 to know for sure.

Maybe the reviewer played in "Youtuber/Twitch Streamer"-Mode.

There's been quite a few reviewers who did the whole review period solo. There are also no siege quests or similar atm so solo is 100 % viable for the currently available content.

These games are totally doable solo. That is how I play 90% of the time going all the way back to the PSP games.

Generally there are a couple end game monsters that require co-op.

Catering to casuals.

I am SO glad casuals will be able to play the game now. It doesn't matter if they're only going to play the game for 10 minutes only and drop it forever, at least it's much easier and more streamlined for them now.

What about the actual fans of the series who actually invest most of the money and time into the franchise? Yeah.... Fuck them. They're not important. It doesn't matter if they've been waiting for this game for years. They can wait a bit more for the title updates and we'll charge them around $40 for a future expansion to actually give them what they want.

Got to love Capcom...

Last time i checked there is no easy mode to chose in mh, even the guardian set usually is avaialbel when the dlc is ready so people can beat the campaign easily, not when the vanilla game is out.

I hope so but they fucked up because some reviews are giving lower scores because it is to easy even for them, and they feel like the game lost his soul...

I heard someone saying that the difficulty is equivalent to beating world with the guardian set :messenger_expressionless:

90 on PS5 Pro because it is probably the only way to enjoy the game without the technical issues.

Also, I bet it is way worse than you think. I bet he PC has all kinds of stutter because when doesn't it with new games now? Also, you KNOW this thing is running shit on vanilla PS5 and just needs a res bump and better framerates, which of course you also KNOW the PS5 Pro provides.

I'm gonna say it now, 90 on PS5 Pro and the best way to play the game for at least 2 months. Just a guess. GTAVI will be much longer. PS5 Pro was a must buy this gen for gaming aficionados. Never let self doubt and the opinion of others affect your console purchasing decisions. Let this be a lesson. PS5 Pro gamers will get a complete experience on day 1.
