This was my introduction to MH, so my opinions on the franchise as a whole are still developing. When it comes to MHW, I think it's a great game that suffers from some niggling flaws that eventually grew to the point that they eclipsed my love for the game. I thoroughly enjoyed it up until the Elder Dragons, but I grew tired of the constant Bazelgeuse dive-bombs, the unwavering brutality of the last few bosses, and most of all the tedious grind of the endgame. Personally, I don't really enjoy loot-based games that much, so when MH becomes "kill the same monster dozens of times so you can finally build your endgame gear," that's when it loses me. Overall, I'm definitely going to check out more MH games, though.
