Monster Hunter: World

As a first time monster hunter player, this game makes me wanna play more monster hunter.

Got it on heavy discount and it was well worth the money. There is so much to do and over 500+ hours of content.
Would recommend.

After playing across platforms for years, it’s hard not to praise the flawless transition from old-gen MH to World/Borne. The game features an amazing combat system, and the change to how abilities work truly fuels creativity in how you build your hunter, all while keeping things stylish and functional. The environments and visuals are breathtaking, with unique creatures that you can either collect or simply admire—because why not? The amount of content ,not only in base game, is enough to keep you hooked for months, whether you're grinding for monster parts, farming decorations, or teaming up with players worldwide to tackle raid monsters and seasonal events. The MH team did a wonderful job on this game and it is well worth the buy.

Took me 3 tries to get into this. It is very different in that you HAVE to commit to an attack and read the monsters attacks than different games.

The past two times I tried long animated weapons, this time I used sword and shield until I felt comfortable in the way movement works and how monsters somewhat work (still early in just got to the zone after the ravine).

Using my newfound comfortness I switched to greatsword and I'm having even more fun! I used to get bodied constantly with one but now that I'm more used to it I can land charges way more often than before!

Combat is very satisfying when you finally hit that charged move.

5/10

World and Iceborne share the same rating. World decided that it would make decorations randomized. Decorations are the pieces that complete a build, of course. So if you happen to be unlucky and never get the good decorations no matter how much melding and farming you make, some fights are just straight up inconvenient to do. For most of the game, you are forced to play sub-optimally until you get lucky enough to get things like weakness exploit, expert, or critical boost decorations that really give a build the oomph it needs to win a fight. That, or you do have those decorations, but you don't have the utility skills like razor sharp or protective polish because you never got the decos for them.

Then there are the RNG rewards. Fuck the RNG rewards. If I carve a tail, I want to get a tail. I should not randomly get some dumbass scale or some other thing that can be found elsewhere on the monster. For some monsters, tails are hard to cut or break especially if you didn't get the partbreaker deco in the RNG decoration grind.

The Scoutflies are retarded. Sometimes I have to disable and enable a waypoint just because they stopped working or sent me the long way around a destination. The weapons are a disaster. They're just slap-on monster parts on templates. The armors are a mixed bag, ranging from nice to butt ugly.

As for the fight against the monsters themselves, the game relies on difficulty via amazing ranges or wide area of effects. Of course, the game suffers from skill parring. You need at least 1 evade extender decoration to make the dodge feel decent in distance. Lord knows how many evade window decos it takes to make the dodge feel good in i-frames because I still don't have them, no matter how many of those dumb jagras event quests I do. When you finally beat Shara Ishvalda, you feel less elated and more glad that it's over, but it's not over. Of course this title has an endgame that doesn't know how to end, filled to the brim with boss fights that even at the game's best, the hunter is forever ill-equipped for.

I've played MHFU and the transition to MHW made all the good changes except for where it mattered most. The game is still plagued with low drop rate rng bullshit, plagued with a lifeless village with people pretending that they've been working with you when all they've done is bark orders and make you do the heavy lifting. World pretends it has a good story around a settlement working together to survive, but the npcs can't be bothered to fire cannons themselves and they still make you pull the dragonator lever when someone else could have literally done that.

There are lots of tidbits about monster ecology that could have been good to leverage in gameplay, but they just windup as set-dressing. It makes the game "look" alive, but feel dead. At the end of the day, the ecology knowledge has no bearing on your ability to hunt monsters. It matters little that Barroth eats ants, or that Pukei-Pukei eats shrooms. These are never leveraged enough in gameplay that there's so much wasted opportunity for actual interesting quests.

World is a large step-up from MHFU, but it's easy to make a large step away from a disaster. So far, Monster Hunter Rise/Sunbreak is the only game that has successfully distanced itself from the tedium of the old. If you want a truly modern MH, skip this, and buy Rise/Sunbreak. Rise is a bit bland, but the Sunbreak expansion is a vast improvement from World/Iceborne. I suggest skip this game or wait for MH Wilds, though I'm certain that MH Wilds will take a lot of cues from World for the worse.

good game, despite senseless storyline and grind to get good weapons/armor
the further you go the more you need to adapt to all game mechanics, otherwise you will be sent to the base countless time, a lot of different skills and mechanics which works well together, also a multiplayer is a nice addition to the general game experience (as insect glaive user I enjoyed the hunts pretty much)

Hunting monsters is fun for like 3 minutes, until you have to keep catching the same monster to get better material, I've heard late game is kinda cool, but i can't get over the amount of grind. Those 160 hours I have, I have replayed the first quarter of the game multiple times, until I had to keep replaying levels to hunt big boys.

Very good, can't play it anymore because of the above reasons, but surely there are people that enjoy this kind of repetitive gameplay

Such a fun game! Can feel a bit grindy, but learning all the monsters and the tactics to use against each is very enjoyable

First Monster Hunter game I've played. I really enjoyed the maps (yes even the ancient forest) and monsters they introduced to me. At first the gameplay never really clicked for me, but now i'm just killing Alatreon for fun. I would say that the decoration farming isn't fun in the slightest, however if you just stop chasing for certain decorations and just hunt monsters for fun, you'll eventually get it. Additionally, I do have mixed feelings on how they handled Alatreon's and Fatalis MR requirements, as it should've been locked behind MR 100. I think the only monster that I hated to fight was Behemoth, otherwise all of them were great in their own unique way. If there is one major flaw in this game it would be monster variety. Why must every other monster be a type a wyvern?

I played this on PS4 for about 300 hours, bought it again on PC, since it was on Sale. Worlds brings in a plethora of quality of life updates, cohesive map design, and overall fun gameplay. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys Monster Hunter games, and if you're new to the series, this is a great starting point, as it introduces many aspects from the old games as normal.(I do not miss bringing bugnets and picks for gathering).

Absolutely a fantastic game.

Okay guys i get it, Let me get you some pros insight between world and rise, Rise is simplified monster hunter experience with a focus of the combat actions between hunters and monster, less hp, wirebug is quitesimilar to clutch claw and tons of switch skills to try on, meanwhile world is an immersive world where we do things manually, less monster HP. More into the gathering, preparations, tracking, then hunting/capturing the monster, yea it's all about process.

World is my favorite, in terms of gameplay, but combat is quite fast and yeah they actually give some extra in the slow-mo scene where you land your final hit after mounting monster. it's pretty tough using clutch claw because i played rise first. I love meowscular chef

Overall would love to see Monster hunter Wilds soon. Im new into monster hunting, but been looking a lot of videos of old monster hunter gameplay <3
No hate comments, just personal opinion. happy gaming yall

pretty boring fighting mechanics and takes a while to get to the fun parts.

One of the better Monster Hunter games from a gameplay, presentation, and graphical perspective. As an old school MH fan, there are some changes that I think the series needed that maybe didn't click with me for a while. The maps are dense and incredibly deep to explore, but sometimes make for cramped, lame places to fight the monsters (mainly looking at the Ancient Forest and the one bone swamp map, as other maps are VERY fun to fight monsters on). Some of the weapon changes are improvements, though they turned my longsword from a combo king to a counter king, which makes it much less fun of a weapon for me. Weapon designs leave a lot to be desired in the base game, and monster designs are pretty good, but I think not quite as strong as other MH games. Despite my longsword complaint, this game has near peak combat mechanics in all of video games.

Multiplayer is very flawed in this game though, and is a major downgrade from most MH games dating back to the Wii era. A Wii game had better multiplayer than this?? Crazy, but just the truth. Playing with friends can often be a major chore - it is not as simple as 'join your friend's lobby and do quests together'. There are awful shenanigans with cutscenes, which force players to play solo, even when in a multiplayer lobby, if they want to both progress the game. It's quite honestly a hot mess.

All in all, a great entry in the series particularly if playing solo, and imo a necessary step that has some growing pains out of old school MH, but is held back by poor weapon design and highly disappointing multiplayer lobbying. Even so, this is a solid recommendation from me for MH fans, action game fans, and fans of cool monster designs. I found that despite the bad multiplayer, it was STILL worth playing with friends just because monster hunter at its core is that great. I personally prefer Generations, MH4U, and Rise to World, but that could be nostalgia...

GREAT GAME, but there is one major issue, I can't pause the game, I understand it's online & how it supposed to be multiplayer game, put in private sessions I should be allowed to pause. Sometimes you got to use the washroom. I personally hate the clutch claw mechanic, as it intrusive gameplay mechanic that becomes necessary if you want a quicker hunt. Previous MH games never had it & didn't need it. I enjoy the in-depth equipment customization and stats but If accidentally overlook something, it causes me to suffer in gameplay. Can't recommend it as a casual game due to the in-depth mechanics you need to learn.

This game really makes you FEEL like a Monster Hunter between the stunning graphics, sounds and monster designs this game really surprised me and was worth every hour played. Can't wait for Wilds

7 Years and still remains my personal favorite from the franchise. This was my first in the series and after playing the rest, I still have more fondness of this game more than any other. If there is a game to introduce newcomers into a franchise, this is the one. I had over 400 hours on my og PS4 account and I still would go through it again as if it's my first time. If you can't wait to get into the action, better late than never! Would Recommend and Happy Hunting!

Amazing game, loved every minute of it. the community is great and kind. in my opinion the game is hard but once you play it and get used to it it will be the most fun you will have.

Stay away from this, it's way too addicting.

It was alright-y fun for the first few hours, and then suddenly everything clicks and now I can't stop. Even got Rise and GU on Switch, and revived my 3DS for 4U. Now I can't wait for Wilds.

LEAVE while it's still early T_T

Amazing game, I highly recommend buying with Iceborne DLC, it effectively doubles the amount of content, and is super cheap for what it is worth when on sale, which is 99% of the time. Going for all achievements takes some time, but is worth it. There are a lot of different weapons to play and learn, and a lot of different playstyles, so just have fun. Bow supremacy.

I got to tell you for soulslike player this would be little bit different ... but trust me it would be totally worth it buy, this game is my big inspire to make my art especially my manga.

If your PC cant run Monster Hunter Wilds yet then buy this game, you wont regret it. Fun and challenging hunts awaits.

As a long time player of the monster hunter series, world is easily one of my favorites. Both the base game and Iceborne bring so much content that can keep you playing for a while. Also this does a good job of passing the time until wilds comes out. Overall, if you're a returning player or new to the franchise then this game is a must play.

This was the game that first got me into MH back in 2018. I didn't know what I was getting into the time since I received the game as a Christmas gift from my parents. Back then all I had was an Xbox one with a handful of games, but it was this game that changed me. Today I have put thousands of hours into the series and own ever single game. I've never had a series the clicked with me quite like Monster Hunter. Today I'm starting another semester of college. The only thing keeping me going through these difficult times is the promise of Wilds from across the horizon.

On world, the armor stat were not much of a problem as long as we learn the monster movement and have a high damage, but with master rank monster's, more stable stat were needed(MR monster were thought+ai is smarter), and when guiding land's were open, more options(-a whole lot-) comes with weapon and armor augmentation, especialy when we are moving with elemental damage( plus MR kulve taroth weapon, more elemental damage up until 600), but the price is with killing purple monkey,nergigante,and the whole lot of elder dragon, the content is so much, that we try to farm each augmentation item, each monster would have it's own loadout. multiplayer is awesome, some would hate the RPG element of farming/collecting food ingredients/treasure hunting/capturing small creatures, but sometimes, those tiny puny mission sometimes comes up when we are hunting our important monster, overall, satisfying and still haven't finished yet

this is the peak of gaming everything after has been nothing if not worse. as soon as i swung my first weapon at the surounding native wildlife i realised i had found a game unlike any other the clunky disjointed and downright goofy at times combat is the most fun ive had in a game since I learned to walk. buy this game (and iceborne) if you enjoy breathing air or water (fish encluded)

I have played a lot of MH games so far (MH 2, Freedom Unite, cracked MH 3 on PSP, Rise) and this is by far my favourite.

Fun game lots of content, lots to hunt. Its a big change from the previous older versions of the game but its not horrible. Ancient forest is a really bad map. solid 8-9/10

Great game, I was skeptical at first because of how boring it looked and the concept of just killing monsters but giving it a shot I was able to experience the satisfying grind it gives. If you don't like grinding games and trying to overcome large obstacles through sheer will power, this isn't for you. The peak about this game is the in-depth environment and how it feels as though the monsters are living and breathing. Killing them after getting to know so much about them is amazing. Base game is peak, if you like what is given to you Iceborne includes additional maps and a trash mechanic that is necessary to kill the monsters easier.

My PC struggles to run this game, but I really liked it. It's pretty and there's a really solid core gameplay loop. I do recommend it to others. Had fun, and it was one of those rare multi-player cooperative games that was fun both solo and as a group.

I played with controller.

Game has a lot of seasonal content, so even when single player, there's different things to collect year round.

Complaint wise, the game is too short. They should have just kept doing expansions, I'd have bought them, It's fun and the content provided is great. Looks like the devs would rather make sequels than expansions, which is too bad.

I've never played any other monster hunter games.

my friends forced me to play this, jk
played a bit, best MH game & dlc you can play
10/10

This is my first Monster Hunter game and I love it. I got into it at the suggestion of a few friends and a streamer back when Wilds was announced. It sat in my library for a bit while I played other games and when I came back to it this year and really put in the effort to learn the game, a weapon, and ask my friends questions, I was hooked. There is a lot to learn with this game, but it is all beneficial to your time spent in game and once things click with you everything feels so good. I beat the base game around Thanksgiving and snagged Iceborne for $10 on black friday. I had got the base game for $10 the previous year as well. I would have gladly paid more looking back at how much fun I have had and how much I still have to do. It is safe to say I am invested in the Monster Hunter series now. Wilds is preordered and I'll likely go back and play some older ones once I've finished out what I want to in MH:World and after Wilds has been out for a while.

I had a lot of fun playing this game in coop with a friend! I like how there are a lot of distinct weapons which each offer a unique playstyle, while also complementing each other in a team.

Monster Hunter World is a phenomenal title that leaves the player with the sweet satisfaction of "FINALLY" after beating the crap out of the same monster repeatedly. I've never played a game that has given me such a rewarding and fulfilling feeling of accomplishment, especially when you devote hours grinding for better gear, prepping your equipment, and refilling your supplies, and to your amazement, for it to pay off in the end. I strongly recommend this game to anyone looking to get into the franchise, I doubt you'll be disappointed. Thank you to a friend of mine for getting me into it.

I really highly recommending this game whoever wanted to playing a "Open-World RPG." styles. I really recommending it. It's really fun to against the monster.

It's will takes a long to finished, at least I didn't finished it yet. But I am surely will finished it and have to upgraded a high ranks armors and more rarity weapons from the monster, so I able to beating all of the monster. It's just fun for me to playing this game. Absolutely amazing.

Since I've buying a DLC of Iceborne, Sunbreak and haven't finished them yet; since one of my brother needed to helping me to passed this game first so we able to entering in Iceborne's world first. Unless the game are completely passed. So we gotta playing Monster Hunt: Rise and passing Sunbreak too after the second game are completely too.

Since I've been pre-ordering Monster Hunter: Wild and it's getting me excited. Hopefully it's gonna be amazing game and I have my own faith in game, and I hope that's Monster Hunter Wild getting a nominated and have a "Game Of The Years!"

Its such a good game, with all the possibilities you can use to beat the monsters. Solid 8/10

Hunt monsters, craft better weapons and armour to hunt stronger monsters, and craft even better gear. Rinse and repeat, the gameplay loop is very simple, but very addictive since everything is customizable. On top of that the level design, the environment, the monsters themselves are all so creative and immersive.

I love this game. One of the most loved franchise and with one of the most caring devs of all time. game had constant updates, collabs and new stuff for 4 years after release. Devs deserve a raise.

I need Steam points. So i would love if someone could contribute :)

Great Game, what an experience to play this. i wish i had more time to play this.

My second dive into a Monster Hunter game, and couldn't be more pumped. The graphics, the gameplay, the beautiful musical doot, this game has it all!

Wonderful game, such as the rest of the series highly recommend you go back and play other titles.

Got my shit stomped by a red T-rex while some brown looking dinosaur with a forehead bigger than Canada reinhorn rushed me from behind, then some weird ass looking flying triceratop jumped up from the ground to drag both of the two legged earthbound beasts to the underground. Then deciding to beat the shit out of the both of them. Meanwhile I was just thrown to the side to watch, and reap from the corpses. 10/10 would do again.

I judged the book by its cover and wasn't interested in Monster Hunter Worlds when it was originally released. Just based on how play-style looked in Youtube videos and such, it didn't seem like my kind of game. Buddy recommended it when it went on sale for 10 bucks, and it was well worth it. Game gives me Dragon's Dogma vibes, which makes sense being Capcom, and I enjoyed that game. Not for everyone though, game can be punishing while learning to play or learning your weapon.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Started the game hunting monsters. Ended up spending more time hunting rare mushrooms and screaming at my cat for cooking burnt meat. 10/10 would get carted again

It's a good game. But shouldn't cost 30$ plus for the full game and dlc at this point. I'd wait and buy it on sale

getting rid of the loading screens between each map was a big win. The gameplay along with the added editions to weapons and monsters, phenomenal.

The game is fun but not for everyone. The combat takes some getting used to due to the various mechanics and the camera being a little odd in the way it moves. You're either going to sink hundreds of hours into this game or leave it after the first few.

this games combat left me SOAKING WET. this games combat is JUICY. 10/10 no other game has left me this wet

game lacks weapon diversity, the only weapon in the game is insect glaive???/ very strange and peculiar

I love this game man

for me its really does satisfy a massive itch of being a game that grind I can go back to whenever and pick back up straight from when I left off and it not feeling boring doing the same things over and over again. its a bit hard to put into words for me but all aspects of it just hit right for me like no other games really does.

over 2000 hours on the xbox with all the dlc. i bought it again on pc since my xbox broke. a very enjoyable game
