I've never refunded a game on steam, and I've never cared enough one way or another to write a review on pretty much any game I've ever played. But when I took a week off of work to play MHR on PC, I didn't know I would just be wasting my PTO. Completely unplayable as the game can't create a save file and just loops indefinitely without ever being able to get to the main menu. Uninstall & Reinstall, verify integrity of game cache, delete old save file folders, turning steam cloud off/on, all had absolutely no effect on this issue. I spent $63 on a frustrating menu simulator. I didn't get a single second of play time in the 2 hours I spent troubleshooting this issue last night, and with no update in sight, this game looks like a lost cause for now. Do not buy this game if you intend to play it within the next few weeks until they update it. I would give a 1/10, but I never got to experience a single second of the game. I put hundreds of hours into MHW, and when I saw a new release, I took time off to be able to enjoy it on release day. Don't make the same mistake as me. Requested refund on steam, and it will be a few days/weeks before I even get to spend that on a game that actually works. 0/10.… Expand

    It's Monster Hunter, what do you expect? Gameplay boils down to a boss rush game where you rush bosses, kill them, loot them, and do it all over until you craft gear you want, all while progressing. 4-player co-op works great. Fun in groups. Can be grindy and repetitive. Not as visually stunning as Monster Hunter: World, but that's to be expected for a Switch port to PC.

If you played that, the levels feel in and around the same size, and unlike portable games prior to this one, the levels aren't divided up into loading zones. Not bad, not amazing, but still fun.

    A decent follow-up to Monster Hunter World. It has a cool ninja theme with new movement and new moves for all the weapons. Story is unimportant and the new/old monsters are still great and the reason i keep coming back. But it lacks in overall endgame giving me less reason to keep playing. I recommend this game.

    Denuvo sucks, cant play it offline or if my internet provider fails.
    MHWorld was so better than is game, it would be better making the games to PC and downgrading them to Switch instead

The first several hours feel like a chore loaded with long winded tutorials, but once it opens then there is more to enjoy. The combat feels like a strange middle ground between really sloppy and slippery yet pretty tight and responsive. It’s hard to explain but I ended up enjoying the combat despite it feeling a bit goofy. The graphics are pretty nice and the soundtrack is excellent but highly repetitive. While I understand the game needs context, I felt like the story and dialogue was awful. Surely they could have come up with something slightly better than this.

    All in all I had fun with the game, especially when playing with friends. It wasn’t fun enough for me to see it to the end but I got a satisfying 13 hours out of it and feel like I’ve enjoyed it enough.    … Expand

    I really enjoyed monster Hunter rise but.... only for 2 weekends. Then it became very repetitive and I only got half way or so. I think maybe if you have friends you could play it with this would make it last longer, and if you are a big fan of the series or really like to grind then that too. But for me I just got to where I was killing same monsters over and over again. But beforeI really enjoyed monster Hunter rise but.... only for 2 weekends.

    It has been a week since I've had the "save file bug". The worst thing is Capcom doesn't really say much about the issue. Sure they acknowledged that it exist, but after that nothing. The only thing we got today was a message that roughly says, "We're working on it, thanks for being patient."...that's all? After one week, that's all we're going to get?

    Ob das Spiel Spaß macht? Keine Ahnung, gegen einen Barioth zu kämpfen macht definitiv keinen Spaß und sonst kommt es einem irgendwie wie emotionsloses Gekloppe vor, aber man freut sich, wenn man das letzte Monster dann erlegt hat.
    Aber auch irgendwie auch nur dann.

    This entire series is literal trash. Repetitive uninteresting mindless hack-n-slash. Battles take EONS, STARTING at 10 minutes and sometimes lasting 30. Yes, my equipment is upgraded.

There's this entire set of moves for the 10+ weapons which sound great but nothing they do matters, just run in, attack once,This entire series is literal trash. Repetitive uninteresting mindless hack-n-slash. Battles take EONS, STARTING at 10 minutes and sometimes lasting 30. Yes, my equipment is upgraded. Monsters all act the same. Just run in, attack them, dodge out of there. There's this entire set of moves for the 10+ weapons which sound great but nothing they do matters, just run in, attack once, dodge out of there. Slow weapons are worse because they take 6 seconds to attack so most of the time you miss. The moves you learn look cool but they do nothing versus just using the normal attack each weapon has. Wow you did a super mega attack for 5 more damage! Okay, I'll just use the normal attack forever now... no penalty?

    You are sent to a battlefield to hunt which is just a waste of time, nothing stands between you and the monster on your mini-map. You just hold forward for 5 minutes. This does nothing except pad out the game. Monsters run away when they're weak and go and heal. This does nothing except pad out the game. There is NO STORY AT ALL, which I wasn't expecting a good one but there is nothing to really make you want to go hunt monsters. No voice acting, just a bunch of text in the menus. They try to distract you with poems and haikus, and silly useless over the top distractions like characters jumping when they make you food. The only point is to just go in a circle of grinding to get better equipment to kill boring monsters faster. You don't have to upgrade but if you don't then go ahead and take the 30 minute figure per monster and triple it. The upgrade tree is really interesting but... there's just no point to bother because all of the monsters are the same process.

    The game doesn't make you think or plan ahead. When hunts start they just dump potions on you. The whole eating system is just an excuse to have something to forget to do. You have to eat before missions or else you don't do nearly as well, ie there are bonuses you miss out on. There is no reminder saying you forgot to eat so you just waste time if you forget and start over.

    I didn't experience any saving issues, and one redeeming thing about the game is the graphics are excellent. The monster designs are unique and everything is animated exceptionally well, the characters are designed well etc. That doesn't matter because it's just window dressing on a completely pointless mindless hack-n-slash. They also have some interesting side modes like tower defense that requires at least a sliver of thinking and strategy, but of course they are optional.

    I do not understand people's obsession with this utterly trash series. My friend tried to get me into it and I wasted $40. This game is not worth $40 or $20, I wouldn't pay more than $5 for it. I kept thinking it would get better, perhaps the first part of the game is just repetitive because it is a tutorial? etc, so I put 10 hours into it and now I'm well beyond the refund time on Steam. I asked around and watched videos and the rest of the series is like this, or arguably even "worse" because they had less quality of life features. NO, you do not do ANYTHING except mindlessly hunt monsters which means, jump in, attack, dodge out.

    If you think you want this game, go watch someone playing it on youtube for 5 minutes and pretend to be mashing keys on your keyboard. There you go, I just saved you time and money. See them attacking a monster once and dodging? Now imagine doing that for 100 hours. That's all you do. I'm not kidding.    … Expand

It feels like the game doesn't want you to play it, it just keeps throwing dialogues and stupid tutorial windows at you several times! Go there and talk to somebody then come back and talk to this other annoying character. Finally, a quest! But only following a character that (of course) talks a lot. The UI/UX is terrible!!! Which turns the options menu into a nightmare! Changing the key bindings is almost impossible due to the high number of incompatibilities. I'm sort of tired of this game design, it's so counter intuitive, so outdated. I was so excited to play it, but it just turned into a bad dream due to all these flaws and really bad choices from the developers.… Expand

    Monster Hunter Rise is a brilliant addition to the Monster Hunter lineup. It delivers incredible combat with newly added monsters and highly-desired mobility. However, it does suffer from messy systems, a mediocre story and can become quite grindy. Despite these flaws though, I have had countless hours of fun and will continue to do so. The co-op aspect just adds even more enjoyment to an already enjoyable game. I just wish the system UI had been redone for PC.
