Monster Hunter: World

You're Telling Me I Gotta Keep Playing This Until 2025?
...actually, I'm fine with that.

Now that this game has gotten a resurgence, here's a PSA.
There's something called the Defender's Set in the beginning of the game. Now MH does nothing to explain it but it is basically endgame quality gear blueprint given to everyone in the forge from the beginning of the game. It's basically a means for players to speedrun their way through the game to reach Iceborne, the expansion. Literally speedrunning because the weapons do so much damage that it negates every reason to interact with basically every mechanic in the game. Monster weaknesses, equipment types, literally any reason to pop open the hunter guide, look at what a monster is weak to, where its weakness is, and what elements might help. All of this is useless with the Defender Set.
Farming materials to make the next tier of gear, progressively getting stronger and basically interacting with the ladder of equipment or crafting as a whole is negated as well.
If you want to play Monster Hunter with all its features, don't use the Defender Set. Because in the end the game is about the journey, not the destination. Learning how to be a monster hunter, and how to hunt well for your class is exceptionally fun in this game.
But by all means if you want to breeze through this game, blowing past the entire base game just to reach the expansion where you'll most definitely get your ass kicked because you don't know the mechanics of the game, go ahead. In the end you're either learning the game in the beginning, or learning the game in the end. Benefits of learning the game in the beginning is that you have more content. Negatives of learning the game later is that you just wasted the base game away for no reason.

lost my gf because of this game, Recommended

This was my first entry into the Monster Hunter franchise, and it turned out to be the best purchase I’ve ever made. The game captures the sensation of being a hunter, from the challenge of identifying the monster, down to the best equipment you can use to defeat them. The game also pushes you to track down the beasts you hunt, which lives up to the name.
Overall, the gameplay is incredibly addicting and the community is amazing as well.
