It feels weird to say I "finished" the game because Monster Hunter is one of those games that only truly ends when you choose to stop playing. For what its worth, this is my second time finishing the base game's main story. First time was on ps4 but I never logged it here, so I'm doing it this time. I adore the combat in Monster Hunter, and I think World perfected the more slow, methodical pace the series was built on at least until Rise went full spiderman. Rise is still loads of fun as well, but this game might just edge it out for me. My single biggest complaint with the game is how fucking stupid it is to play the story with others. The game constantly stops you dead in your tracks throughout the story and makes you go into expedition mode to get clues which bizarrely appears to be single player only. And even when every player has grinded out that bullshit, you can't just all go hunt the monster straight away cause everyone needs to see the stupid fucking cutscene before they can join or have people join them. They fixed this all in Rise so I pray they don't fuck it up again in Wilds. Everything else gets a big thumbs up from me, except maybe how many of the weapons are the same base with different bits strapped on.
Charming little game. It reminded me more of Samorost 1 than Machinarium, and I mean that as a compliment. Puzzles were considerably easier than Machinarium in my opinion and thankfully there were no slide puzzles. I also found it very funny, its all very silly gags that hit for me. I do feel like the idea of 5 protagonists all with different skills was a bit underutilized but who cares honestly.
First game I finished in the shiny new PC I built. Process was a bitch but getting to play this again at max settings and 144 fps made it all worth it. It remains one of the most fun shooters out there and the campaign is still great to play even after 2 previous runs. Multiplayer unfortunately seemed dead as hell and even when I got matches it was unplayably laggy. I think everyone's on the Northstar client thing? Idk I didn't try it.
