While many of us are still picking up the pieces of our shattered dreams of jolly cooperation from the failed experience known as Destiny 2....Monster Hunter World is releasing on Ps4 and XboxOne this Friday.
I highly urge anyone who likes the Loot Grind to give this game a look.
It is an Action RPG developed by Capcom and been around since the Ps2 days, but these have been relegated to the 3DS for the past decade or so. However, this isn't your normal RPG. The game is singularly focused on taking down big Monsters. That's it. Anything you do in the game only goes to support this one goal. Crafting, gathering, resources...all contribute. (Apparently there is some sort of a story as well this go around).
Take down monster, carve for parts, make better gear, take down bigger monster...rinse and repeat.
Do note that the game's systems are deep and complex with 14 different weapons to choose from...many fundamentally changing the way you play. Stats, armor, but most of all skill, are of key importance.
Also, the weapons are heavy...Things control slowly. You have to aim and calculate each swing or be flung across the map. Its much more about strategy and positioning that just fast reflexes. You have to hunt it, not fight it.
Anyway, groups of 4 can group up on line to take these things down (some fights can go on for the full time limit of 50 minutes)...it is intense and exhilarating.
Anyway, give it a go nerds.
Let's hunt.
