Uhh, so I already hit one credit scene after completing a 6* quest to kill Magnamalo in single-player...and apparently, there are multiple credit scenes, so I'll use these opportunities to journal my thoughts on the game so far.

As someone who did not like MH4U, something about Rise just clicked with me. Was it the beautiful landscapes and charming characters? Was it the ease of learning and gaining power with whatever weapon you wanted? Was it the thrill of the hunt and learning a monster's attack pattern? Or was it D, all of the above? Honestly, I feel you can REALLY enjoy a Monster Hunter game once you have a dedicated buddy to hunt with you, although that is generally true for all online RPGs. Still though, if you commit to the grind of the multiplayer missions, you will easily gain strength. It also helps to find what weapon you want to main, although you can easily switch to any weapon you want in and out of missions. So yeah, definitely get this game to play with friends, but you should probably 1) wait for a discount and b) find some friends to play online or locally (preferably the latter)
