My first and only Monster Hunter was Freedom Unite on PSP, so my review will not be compared to old videogames, nor do I consider myself an expert in this franchise. Monster Hunter World has disappointed me, honestly. Both in terms of gameplay, and on PC and new generation consoles it can be quite old, given that it needs a lot of grinding, although I know that the Monster Hunter saga is characterized primarily by the mechanical one, but I just don't like it , I can't do anything about it, on a portable console, during my frequent weddings on the train and in the car it wasn't a problem, they blocked the travel holes, but on PC I can't accept it, but it also disappointed me in the setting, these "small" hunting areas in which it is divided have not satisfied me at all, on the contrary ... I think it was my Achilles' heel, which led me to abandon it for many months. But why do I recommend it? Why am I going back to playing it now and is "enjoying" it? because playing in company entertains me ... and not only that, monsters are cool, they are well made, perhaps made with too much care, I really like weapons, armor, they are really aesthetically beautiful, I really like the soundtrack, despite a rather sparse narrative, the story manages to catch you and although it is very far from a crystalline narrative, however you manage to enter into sympathy with certain characters and with whom less, I like to see that during a hunt some monsters collide with each other, changing and making the fight dynamic. I understand very much why Monster Hunter World has conquered many people ... and not only, I understand why many people defend it against negative criticisms, in fact my criticisms are extremely subjective, but I really believe that Monster Hunter World will become a classic going forward with the time. Graphically nothing to say, I love the yield of forests, deserts and more, I also love the character design, very "rough" that manages to highlight the robustness of these monster hunters, intelligently giving up the classic character design that makes the characters come out of Victoria's Secret, which I think has always been out of tune, if you want to make a video game of this genre, the appearance of the characters must be hard, rough, you have to make it clear that they are dangerous. So yes ... I highly recommend Monster Hunter World, albeit with its flaws, which however will not spoil the game experience.
