    I tried doing multiplayer (on PSN) I ended up with a team consisting of one japanese woman, a chinese man, a Irish Man, and me from the good old US of A....to say the least it was an interesting match.

    As a long time Monster Hunter fan who started back on the PSP I think this was a very fair review of the monster hunter series in general. The issues you pointed out seem to be mostly the same in terms of gameplay style and game design that have been in the series since the beginning. I really hope newcomers to this series enjoy it as much as myself and other fans do, because it's a challenging rewarding, deep, fantastic series. My only gripe is that I have to wait until fall to play it on PC but even then the fact it's coming out at all on pc is a small miracle in of its self. But this games is shaping up to be amazing and I cannot wait.

    This is actually my first MH:World review that I watched/read. As a huge MH fan seeing your quest timer go above 25 minutes, it is clear you are a newcomer/new player to the series so your opinion of the game is very needed for new players that want to jump in. And yes, this game is very deep, deeper than you may think and I wouln't go into this game without a proper guide (wiki or MH guides out there). Even with additions of damage numbers, ingame wikis and other stuff. Because if you think you have learned everything, you have basically just started. Good Job!

      Elijah MacDougall I'm mixed on this game. Looks like a cool game as a whole but as a new Monster Hunter title it's hard to say. It kind of seems like they made this for new players and it didn't seem like Karak had played many other games in the series either. Nothing wrong with that, I think I just needed more comparisons to past titles so I could gauge where this game might sit with me.

    As a veteran of this series who put tons of hours in these game. This is a pretty fair review. It IS repetitive and that will not fly with everyone some of the idea can feel pretty outdated for its time. I said this plenty of time as much people hyped it up just because of the "Pretty Graphics". This game is NOT for everyone. This game is still faithful to its roots which old fans will still love, others it may not. And that's how it is.

    Do you use any specific products on your beard? Like balm or oil?
    Now related to the review:
    I've been following you the past 2-3 years now and I have got to say that you are the best reviewer out there. You got humor, you weave the greatest sentences in the history of the written English language AND help me and thousands of others save money.

    Great review man. I think you went about the criticisms well and as a long time MH fan I've grown accustomed to certain tedious things about the series (menus, timers, etc). I like that you pointed those out for new players. For me, these are not significant issues and I feel that they've made a lot of changes in order to bring new players in..but I agree 100% with every criticism..game might be hard to get into at first but man is it rewarding. Keep up the great reviews man!

    As a huge Soulsborne and MH fan, this game gave me the kind of hype I've not had in years. Pre-ordered the online deluxe edition as well as the Rathalos Edition PS4 Pro. Can't wait for it to unlock tomorrow and spend at least 1000 hours in it lol. I refused to spend less than 500 hours in any MH game i touch lol.

    Yours is the only review that matters to me personally. Most other big sites like ign only give 2-5 minute reviews which feel more like summaries of the game. I don't want to watch someone saying yeah this game is about killing monsters. 3/5. I love that you not only do research but actually spend a lot of time in these games and pick out the things people want to know. Makes my purchases much easier knowing the product I'll be getting isn't garbage. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into all your reviews!

      hey man you might want to look for adopt-a-hunter (look it up) movement. it's an initiative made by MH communities to pair up a long time fan (Veterans) to those who only picked up the game (Novice). the aim is for the vets to "guide" the novices in terms of game mechanics and lore of the game so that you won't feel overwhelmed.
      Not saying that those who are new couldn't enjoy the game, but this game has always been much more enjoyable to be played with friends. eh, who knows you might make a new friend there as well.

    @marcofunke3607 7 років тому +3

    Great review, and I wanna add something to the "repetitive" thing. :)
    Even if you do the same thing over and over again, it feels never quite boring, cause the gameplay is as good and challenging as in "Dark Souls".
    You can't just mash things away, you have to think about what you are doing... every single time.
    Even if you know the ins and outs of a monster, being careless gets you killed.
    And that's the magic about the grinding in a MH-title, the gameplay is so good that the grind isn't as bothersome as in a Diablo or a JRPG or what not.
    The numbers don't matter as much as your skill as a player.

  • @arkansasrazorback6087
    @arkansasrazorback6087 6 років тому +8

    Great review as always. This game is great. It didnt look like my type of game at first, but I was wrong. It is a very addictive game. There isnt too much story and there is a lot of grinding, but it is well worth it. If you like Dark Souls or Dragons Dogma, then get this game! You wont regret it. Best game I have played in a very long time.

  • @Belgariad87
    @Belgariad87 7 років тому +1

    Good review, i'm gettin my preorder tonight. I do want to mention one thing: Though this is just my idea, I think the reasoning behind why we are going around killing monster is supposed to be heavily supplemented by past games' quest descriptions, like they attack trade caravans or cause trouble for villages. Like, they are just known for needing hunting.

  • @DanRPGMan
    @DanRPGMan 6 років тому +4

    I've been playing the series since the first Monster Hunter game and I love this one. Granted it's not the most difficult MH game but that's ok, it's still more challenging than most games. I wish I had more time to play but when I do it's always great fun. I usually don't play a lot of multiplayer games because people are jerks, especially when it comes to new players. The thing with MH is it doesn't pay to be an asshat, you'll get booted by players quickly and get no rewards from the mission. There's no PvP and everyone is working toward the same goal. The community has always been a good buch, sure you have a few who aren't but 99% of the time people online are nice.
    This isn't a story driven game, it's combat driven as well as loot. If you're looking for a deep narrative look elsewhere, it's not that kind of game. That's ok, some games aren't meant to have a big story.
    If you're having problems in combat and it feels really clunky it's because you're not familiar with the weapon you're playing yet and your timing is off. Once you put in enough time combat feels fluid and natural. There's 14 different weapons to choose from so everyone can find something to suit their play style and have fun with.
    There's a lot to do in Monster Hunter World and when you trap or kill a high level monster is very satisfying. Even some of the low rank ones are fun even for someone who has played the games before. Then you get to crafting better weapons and armour from monster parts. The thing that's great for me is the thrill of the hunt, tracking a monster and learning where it goes to get food or drink or where it roams to just take a walk is fun. Then you find where it sleeps ane can set up explosive barrels or a trap to trap the monster when they run back to their den to sleep after you've hurt them enough.
    I'll be monster hunting for quite some time and more DLC will be on the way and I'm very excited for it!

    CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN MULTIPLAYER TO ME! Up until release I still don't have a grasp on how it works despite the hours of research I have done to try and answer this question. Can me and a few friends play this for our first time from start to finish or are there certain things you have to do solo? Also how early can you start engaging in coop? I'm beginning to worry from a few vague statements I have read

    • @claytopolis
      @claytopolis 7 років тому

      the intro needs to be completed before you can do co-op. yes you can play with your freinds, but only four hunters can go on a mission at a time. also for whatever reason you cant play a story mission in co-op until you have gone through the cutscene. then you can quit out and start it up again with freinds if you want.

      the game is rated T. there isnt exactly blood splattering or swearing. some monsters have tails you can cut off but thats it in terms of gore.
      as for hours, i would say this is a good game for a casual player who wants a long game. if yout ake your time to do side quests and gather materials, this game will last you a while. plus the devs are going to add free content updates bringing stuff like new monsters.

    The framerate issues you mention sound about the same as the ones in the beta. They did mention something about a day one patch, maybe some of the frame rate will have been addressed from that. Hopefully.

      not only does it have single player, but you can do all of the multiplayer quests by yourself if you want. they are more difficult however. but if you're worried about not having anyone to play with, you could always use the official monster hunter discord to find a group.

      you can and usually there are exclusive gear that you can only get in solo or only in multi player. but the game is way more fun multiplayer just join random games. the mh community isnt like most other online communities. we love helping out noobs (it gives us a chance to show off!!) plus you learn way more playing with other players, like when yo throw flash bombs or set up traps.

      Geminion Ray wrong, rhe fame is more difficult with players. The monsters health increases the more players you have, also their body parts require more dmg before they drop. Solo versus 4 man the monster has 5x more health

  • @LiangHuBBB
    @LiangHuBBB 6 років тому

    I got 3 questions:
    1. Correct me, if Im wrong. But it's never a good choice to mount a monster with the hammer right? I can only deal 1 damage per hit because my hunter only strikes with his knife.
    2. Why would anyone use the LBG over the HBG? Isn't the HBG like almost in every case the overall better weapon?
    3. Also how do I increase my Hunter rank? Only with investigations?
    Thanks in advance.

    • @Zooptopus27
      @Zooptopus27 6 років тому

      Not sure if you already figured it out, but it's always good to mount the monster in order to take it down for a bit. Then you can proceed to wail on it with your hammer.
      I'd imagine the LBG plays differently in terms of how fast or accurate it shoots when compared to the HBG. It's all about damage per second.
      You increase your rank by doing optional quests/investigations and slaying the monster or capturing the monster for that quest.

    I think the base needed a better tutorial. I found the bounties on my second day of play. On my third day of play which was when I was wrapping up the Zorah story arc I found the botanist and the meld station. Both of those would have really helped earlier in the game as melding to get items really helps especially for pill items. Still curious if I missed anything else in the base area.

  • @EmzoRulez
    @EmzoRulez 7 років тому +3

  • @natem6900
    @natem6900 7 років тому +1

    As a veteran Monster Hunter player I have never encouraged others to play this game. I LOVE this series and never get bored of the grind, but that's why I never recommend. Most game players I know do not like to grind. They want to spend $60 on an action game they can rush through, end, then take back for credit. Overall that's fine and I don't knock a player who chooses to play that way. I, however, want to know that my money isn't on a game I can crush in a week or 2. I enjoy repetitive hunts that grant me options to stronger weapons with visual flair. I like having the option to either hunt a beast or run around collecting materials for new armor sets. I enjoy taking the time to play with everything the game designers put in. I've never been a fan of the arena fights in MH but still appreciate they put the option in. Also, maybe im just use to the MH camera and hud but its never been an issue for me. Ive played many games with weird camera set ups and like always I adapt. In regards to combat I don't understand the comparison. Are people expecting a chain of dynasty warriors commands? I find the various set provided for the current MH weapons types to be fine. Then again, I did say im a MH vet. The series has never had a shortage of players and I still play the DS version with random parties all the time. Point to all this? If you don't like grinding stay away. Stick to the standard action game you can play straight and return. If you do enjoy grinds then welcome to the series. Hopefully we'll be hunting for Rathian armor together.

    I'm a huge, insane MH fanatic and it's my favorite series by far. Been playing since the PS2 days. That being said, I feel this review is fair. MH World is basically the perfect game...for me (and many others), but it certainly is not the perfect game for everyone. I almost would call Monster Hunter more of a hobby than a game. You aren't going to pick this game up on a whim, sit down after a long day, and be able to have fun right away. What you will get is an incredibly rewarding and deep experience, if you are interested in investing the time. That is not what everyone wants out of a game and that is okay. But if you are looking for something to really sink your teeth into, I can't recommend anything more highly than Monster Hunter.

    • @Kleoath
      @Kleoath 6 років тому

      Joshua Howell dude you get 50 mins on the timer and it takes about 20 max to kill a monster, even if its a super brutal one. I've never had a problem with the timer, even with certain investigations making the timer shorter as an added challenge (completely optional to do) I've still never had a problem with it. It's a great game and timers are probably the stupidest reason for you not to play it

      The timer is there solely to tell if you if your current damage is working out. Needing 50 minutes to kill a monster is a little much, especially when there're a few 5 monster hunts that give the same amount.

    First time ever watching one of your videos. Your vocals and audio are crisp, and you articulate very well. In a review, I always look for the counterpoint. I came to the video understanding what I might like, what's bad about the game?
    You reviewed in a very fair, unbiased manner giving clear examples of the good and the bad with an excellent bottom line. Enough detail to be engaging but not boring, and you made great points. Thank you for the hard work. It really helps my decision.
