Monster Hunter world

Really enjoying this so far, anyone else playing it?

My mind wants me to buy this game and play it.    I've never played these games though and I feel I may not want to grind as much as that's needed, but then again, I feel like grinding half the time haha.    I may end up getting it if some friends do.

I'm thinking about it.  It looks pretty cool.  The system seem really deep though.  I just don't think I'd have the time to really dig into until the summer.  The graphics are pretty intense, and the AI looks to make an interesting game.

I'm really enjoying it. It's my first MH game so it's a little overwhelming at first, but once you play a couple of hours, you start figuring things out pretty quick.

It's pretty time consuming, especially if your hunting achievements. Most monsters or quests take between 15-45m each and there's hundreds of side quests, investigations, and other types of things to do quest wise plus over 50 monsters with more on the way plus the main story line.

It's definitely worth getting, it's less grindy then the previous entry's in the series but there's still a bit of grinding involved for armour and weapon building. I've got it on ps4, had to sell my gaming pc sadly.

hadn't seen much about this till this thread, might get into this when I have more time

question to carpanfan bc you seem to know a lot, is multiplayer required or are you able to beat most of the game solo?

You're able to beat the game solo, no problems. It's built around the online play but it isn't intrusive on the gameplay. There's nice touches like the SOS flare if you run into problems with a quest and want to ask the online players to help you. So it's really dependant on how you want to play, most of the gameplay is a loop. Go on this quest to kill this monster, use loot from monster to make better gear, a little grind since you need to kill a monster more then once to make a set of armour or such. 

 

Short and simple, you can play solo all the way through or with 3 friends. I've gone online once and I've done 17-20 missions so far. 

 

hopefully that helps some but I can't recommend this game enough. I've had the Flu the last 3-4 days and I've put about 19-20 hours in so far with it. Nothing quite like the feeling you get when your fighting a T-Rex like Monster and then a bigger Dragon like Monster drops in and starts attacking both of you with swoop attacks, charges and fire breathing attacks while you're rolling this way and that way trying not to get poisoned or burned and trying to place nicely timed attacks in between the chaos.

Thanks for all your input in the thread!  This does look like an amazing game.  Summer for sure =)

Good luck recovering, heard this was a pain in the tail flu season.

It is a very amazing game,but I've been playing MH for about 10 years so i might be a bit biased. I can say for sure this one fixes a lot of nitpicky issues ive had with previous entries. Probably my favorite game ive played over the last two or three years and isn't that close expect for maybe BOTW.
