    Quel jeu! Les monstres sont très impressionant et le gameplay,une fois maitriser, est jouissif. Les zones sont cohérentes et vivantes et la DA est très cool

    This was my first Monster Hunter Game, and I really enjoyed it. It is a good game to play with your friends, is entertaiting to grow together and capture all the monsters that are spread on the world. There are a few that are amazing, have a good movements and allow you to enjoy while killing them.

    A nice game to play with your friends.

    It's a great game to begin with but its weaker than MHGU for me.

    Well from graphical stand point, it's no doubt to be that good and it's quite dense and big as well for only 1 map. Yes, the map is dense but that makes exploring the world quite confusing, so many vegetations and other thing that obstruct how you view the world (not the map).

    Well from graphical stand point, it's no doubt to be that good and it's quite dense and big as well for only 1 map.

    Yes, the map is dense but that makes exploring the world quite confusing, so many vegetations and other thing that obstruct how you view the world (not the map). Well, you'll memorize it by the end of it but it's easier to explore around in GU dan in World. And, any herbs, honey, etc. is hardly noticeable because they blend in with the world which is a great one but I hardly collect enough because I keep missing it. Yes, you got the help from scoutfly to locate each one of them but there comes another problem which is lighting of the game is not consistent which mostly makes me lost track of the scoutfly that locate certain object.

    Speaking of map, the icon of the map seems washed out. I don't know if I can mess around about it in the setting but so far, I didn't find any solution for this. That icon really helpful thou to locate certain object to collect for your Quest.

    The palico also rarely help you when you get stunned or electrified but they did heal you a lot in battle. Well, I still do prefer to get smacked by my palico when I'm stunned or electrified.

    Last, it's my preferences but MHW seems to weakened most of their monsters. Like I met Rathalos on GU when I unlock the 5 stars village Quest and I got stun a lot as well as burned. In MHW, I encounter him when I'm on a mission to hunt down Pukei-Pukei (the 3rd Quest I believe). I kinda of hesitant but decided to engage in combat. Turns out, I'm winning without even healing at all. Cutting tail also way easier in MHW than GU. To be honest, this affects the satisfaction kind of feel that I hardly get from World.

    Overall I do enjoy the game but GU still a better game in my opinion which makes me keep coming back to GU more than World.    … Expand

    I love this game this was my first Monster Hunter title but its just so catchy and has such good lore.

    All i can say from what i have seen and played it's the best Monster Hunter tite that was released.

    I think there could have beenn some more older monster from earlier games thats why im only giving it a 9/10 but its just amazing.

    No other game had ever kept me playing beyond 100 hours since Pokemon when I was a kid and Skyrim, but the latter never past the 200 hours point, and even at 350 hours I still want to enjoy this game more. I can only describe it as a perfect game which achieves its goals flawlessly.

    What a journey this game is.
    Is a game with lots of complicated mechanics, with very good and different weapons that are very hard to master, but once you get it, it gets really addictive.
    Beautiful and very distinctive environments and exceptional monster design.
    And it is as good to play solo, as coop.
    Thanks Capcom for a master piece!

    Awesome game with RPG gameplay optimized for multiplayer, my first monster hunter and it's definitely not going to be the last it got me good couldn't stop playing until I platinumed it very addictive from does games that can easily become your only game and the fact that its multiplayer makes it even better.

    Capcom went in a different direction with this game, and it paid off. The more realistic style of the game really brought my attention to it, since I thought it fit more with this type of game than the overly cartoony style of the older games.

The more realistic style of the game really brought my attention to it, since I thought it fit more with this type of game than the overly cartoony style of the older games.

    The gameplay is great, many people call it clunky not realising that it's part of it, it's a way of punishing the player for making bad decisions and not having enough control of their skills and character movement. People don't complain about this with Dark Souls and such, why should they about Monster Hunter?

    The gameplay is satisfying, especially with friends, you have an enormous amount of monsters to fight, quests to do, and trophies to acquire. There's base decoration and endemic life collection which you can display, which was one of the must fun surprises I had with this game, some of the music can be quite nice, and while the story is passable, improving your gear and making different builds for monsters is super fun.

    I was going to say that I hoped Capcom would maybe make World a "home console and PC" spin-off and continue the main series on Nintendo portable consoles, but after seeing MH Rise... ehh please bring back World and stick to it, thank you.    … Expand

    Monster Hunter: World is by far the most polished and approachable entry in the Monster Hunter franchise.

    We can only hope the series stays this course.

    I would highly recommend Monster Hunter: World.

    Glorious monsters with superb animation
    Nice music

    Отличная игра, не требуется много времени для понимания и начала, зашел 10-15 минут в городе, все понял, что и где, дальше ходишь и ловишь монстров.
    Вносит радости и испытаний, случайные атаки монстров и случайные встречи с другими монстрами.    Отличная игра, не требуется много времени для понимания и начала, зашел 10-15 минут в городе, все понял, что и где, дальше ходишь и ловишь монстров.

    Honestly, if the Low and High Rank portions wasn’t as polished and an incredible experience to go through. This score would be 7/8 margin just because compared to previous games, the rotating event quests, RNG investigations for RNG loot, reduced weapon and quest pool, and less challenging solo player end game. But, with the incredibly constructed world, incredible combat experience, and cohesive experience, the downpoints are more just demands for more content.

    I won't rehash the problems I had with World simply because they make me profoundly sad. I wanted to like the game, I hoped the new direction would bring the series to a new level, but instead, the whole thing blew up in my face like a Marshmallow Peep left in the microwave too long.

    Moving to real consoles has paid off for Monster Hunter. The fifth installment is bigger, nicer and funnier (a bit). In addition, a number of free addons will extend the entertainment for another dozens of hours. [Issue#283]
