    Great ACT game and impressive game-play mostly. For PC, there are many cons actually. But overall it's a great ACT game.

    I have almost a 1000 hours in this game.
    The different monsters are fun to fight against.
    Every single one has their own gimmick.
    Gearing was a lot of fun.
    Overall just a very fun experience.

    Einfach ein sehr tolles Spiel, tolle Events, die Weekleys sind immer gut mit den Event und Arena Challenges abgestimmt, da haben sie sich echt was bei gedacht und sowas mag ich, denkende Menschen sind einfach die Besten! Die Atmosphäre ist einfach perfekt. Das Einzige was mich genervt hat waren Experten, die bei Kulve dauernd sterben, obwohl die Quest ohne Monitor gespielt werden kann und das Event an sich, da es echt langweilig war und extremes Glück notwendig war. 16 Spieler gegen ein Monster, sollte gleichzeitig stattfinden und nicht als Fortschrittsbalken in verschiedenen Instanzen ablaufen, das war echt öde. Die Rüstung war dafür umso besser, das Mega Man Event und Devil May Cry Event mit den jeweiligen Soundtracks - top! 9 von 10 Punkten. Ich fände es cool, wenn mehr Monster dazu kommen würden, einfach als optionale Quests in allen Rängen von 1er bis 9er Missionen, in MH3 soll es wohl sehr viel mehr Monster gegeben haben. Aber dennoch einfach nur zu empfehlen.    … Expand

    Great game, and I got with +250hrs in it. Sad they made the last monsters impossible to beat without a really really good team. You cannot beat them with randoms. Despite that it was really fun.

    Also, do not forget to install all the sexy mods, you won't regret it ;)

    在花费了一整个暑假打通怪物猎人世界后，我发自内心的想给他满分，即使他可能仍然存在部分像是网络问题或降低游戏体验的改动，但是总体上讲仍然是一款瑕不掩瑜的好游戏
    跟随着调查团深入一片未知的大陆本身就相当吸引人，虽然实际上剧情表现不佳，但是细致入微的设定和栩栩如生的生态仍然让我感到这仿佛就是一片真实存在的世界，在这片土地上的每一次狩猎，从狩猎中归来后在据点的休憩和准备都让人相当有代入感。
    怪猎的游戏体验确实可以用打怪做装备打怪做装备来概括，但是个人反而更中意这种简单但是爽快的游戏体验，世界即使简化了不少的系统也比大部分rpg复杂，所以做装备这一环节并不重复，优秀的怪物ai设计提供了很好的交互，虽然上手门槛较高且新手引导偏弱，但是一旦上手便很容易沉迷进去，每战胜一只怪物都能带来极强的正反馈    在花费了一整个暑假打通怪物猎人世界后，我发自内心的想给他满分，即使他可能仍然存在部分像是网络问题或降低游戏体验的改动，但是总体上讲仍然是一款瑕不掩瑜的好游戏

    Probably my favorite combat of any game. It's like souls but even more detailed. Takes a long time to get boring thanks to all the different monsters and weapons. Characters and story are alright but are mostly a side note to the amazing gameplay.

    Weapons have a deep learning curve and you will not be able to perry or dodge like crazy. The idea behind Monster Hunter is that as a hunter, you are very vulnerable and the enormous monster in front of you is way stronger than you in every way. So, you can't just press buttons randomly and hope for the best. Getting used to monster hunting takes fairly a long time and you will not master the combat in a couple of hours, that's for sure.

    The game has lots of details to explore and requires a lot of patience, which everyone does not have. If you are not willing to spend the extra time on it, you might want to look somewhere else.    … Expand

    Monster Hunter World is such an amazing game The combat, graphics, soundtrack are all excellent. There are some network issues such as sudden disconnects also not being able to skip cut scenes is an issue when you're playing with your friends. If you have friends to play this game is a treat.

    A decent version of a really good game.

    As a PC user that didn’t have a PS2 back in the days, I never played any of the console exclusive Monster Hunter titles, I knew them, saw them, even other people I knew back them, talking about them and playing them, but never did so myself. So when it comes to actual first hand impressions, World was my first MH game, so no bias here of any    A decent version of a really good game.

    As a PC user that didn’t have a PS2 back in the days, I never played any of the console exclusive Monster Hunter titles, I knew them, saw them, even other people I knew back them, talking about them and playing them, but never did so myself.

    So when it comes to actual first hand impressions, World was my first MH game, so no bias here of any sort, really. I think this game is really enjoyable, gameplay wise, it’s not just “button mashy” at all, combat is quite methodical, if you don’t want to get hit every time a monster attacks, and probably it is what I like about the combat, the most. I mean, I would probably enjoy it too if this had…Devil May Cry style combat, but that’s not the point, it just fits the game as it is.

    I played this game when it was released, went through a few rough patches here and there (mostly a known driver issue on Nvidia GPUs, back in the day, resolved in a couple weeks), and here we are today.

    To this day, still surprises me that this game uses the MT Framework engine, not because it is really old, but because how well holds up still to this day, and how good the game can look , especially in cutscenes (and more so in the Iceborne expansion), some scenes have really nice detail.

    I have played this game on different PCs over the years: first on my old intel i5 4690K with a GTX 1070, it was fine at 1080p and a moderate amount of High settings mixed with some stuff tuned down a bit, CPU usage was a bit rough at launch though, but it improved a lot later on.

    Currently, I play on a Ryzen 5 3600 and a RTX 3060 Ti, and of course it runs much better but, this game is still quite demanding both on the CPU and GPU. At Max Settings, this game barely does 40 FPS at 4K on this GPU, without DLSS. It is a shame though that it’s still DLSS 1.9 I believe, and not the newer and much better looking and performing DLSS 2.X, and I do hope one day Capcom make the switch to that one, to this day most games that initially supported the older DLSS have switched to the improved one. This would also allow DLSS to be used at 1080p or any other arbitrary resolutions, because at the moment, being the older DLSS tech, can only be enabled for 1440p and 4K.

    When it comes to Controls and Keybinds, I think Capcom did a decent job overall for this port, there’s a small amount of keys that cannot be bound , like DEL for instance, but for the most part, I can bind most of my usual keys (I’m left handed, btw). I can play this game with no particular issues with Keyboard and Mouse and it is, in fact, my preferred control method for this game. The ability to use shortcuts for items with keys is quite useful and less cumbersome than using the stick on the gamepad on a radial menu, but that’s my personal preference really.

    All in all, I think it’s no surprise this game has sold so many copies across all the systems it released, of course many “older fans” of the series may not have all they wanted from MH condensed in this single title, but for a wider audience it seems this game hit the right spots in many ways.

    I can only imagine how much better (and performing) an RE Engine MH game with the budget of World would be in the future. MH Rise is coming in 2022 to PC, but that one is a “scaled down” game, technically, to accommodate for the Switch hardware, but my point is that Capcom took MT Framework (which they know pretty well, they’ve been using it since forever) and made this huge game here, so when they finally make the jump to RE Engine on the next mainline entry, it could be something interesting.

    My only issues with the game though, is that it often loses the online connectivity when minimizing the game, it’s been a bug since the game launched, and still happens, probably doesn’t like to be “inactive” for a split second when it minimizes, or something.

    Another issue is that the game’s lighting is quite often very “bloomy”, to exaggerated levels even, it looks nice at night but at day time…sometimes certain surfaces and the sky can look very over exposed and with too much bloom. I also heard the game had lots of issues with HDR, especially when it launched, not sure how that works nowadays, since I don’t use HDR myself.

    Overall, this would be a game I would’ve spent like 5k hours already, if I didn’t play any other games, because there’s a lot to do, and different weapons to master, if you do enjoy following that route. Having “only” played a few hundreds of hours, I can still say they were well spent, and I don’t get tired of coming back to the game, now and then.    … Expand

    Monster Hunter: World offers unique gameplay of high quality. However, the whole package could have been an order of magnitude superior if it included a properly designed online party system and the port from consoles was better taken care of. But even like this, MH:W is worth every penny it asks.

    Monster Hunter: World still has all the complexity expected from this series, but it dishes it out in much more palatable chunks than usual. It's still got a frightening amount of depth, but it feels manageable in a way that few in the series have pulled off before. Players may still feel a little lost from time to time, but a little guidance from series vets or other friends can drastically reduce the growing pains new players will likely experience. On top of all that, this is one of the best-feeling titles the series has had to date; so saddle up with some friends, and explore all the New World has to offer.
