    Like cake... but with no icing.

    There's no denying cake is good regardless, but it's undeniable that cake with icing is better. I'm of course hinting at Monster Hunter World. Rise is a great addition to the franchise, but the more I play Rise, the more I feel like playing World... the different is significant. Most of Rise feels like a spin off of World. The graphics (of course),    Like cake... but with no icing.

    Most of Rise feels like a spin off of World. The graphics (of course), armours (not as detailed), weapon move nerfs, flat level designs, texture popping, etc. It's hard to really get past this at times and actually enjoy the game in my opinion.

    For clarity, When I say weapon nerfs, I'm referring to Longsword and Gunlance, as those are my main weapons. First: Longsword no longer has Helmsplitter, which made me pretty sad. Also, Gunlance no longer has ledge over head leap slam that was pretty good for spamming full blasts in rapid succession. Not gamebreaking, but just "why?" type of nerfs. Also Duel Blades you can no longer spam attack while holding back and forth for an infinite combo.

    I know my review isn't very positive, but hey I'm only 2 stars in so far. It's hard getting back into handheld as my last MH game was Tri on 3DS. Will update my score if things get better, I've yet to see new monsters, just been the same roster so far from World.

    All in all, this is a good filler Monster Hunter game to play while waiting the next console release. I'm playing through Rise solo to brush up until then personally.

    HR: 857 MR: 506 see you hunters in the next one!    … Expand

    Ugly graphics, annoying combat, lengthy tutorials.... and that's just starting. I bought this game because of the great reviews, but it seems those were bought.
    After googling I figured how to autofocus monsters, which was the most annoying thing about combat, so I adjusted my review.

    Its MHWorld with lower difficulty, a few added features, a few removed features, and too stretched out maps. Its a chore to go from A to B even with the mount/dog. Forest level is reused / recycled too often. At least its a decent portable MHWorld. I dont like the change to use a Japanese setting, I more liked the more generic/pirate setting in MHW.

    It's a fresh monster hunter with new mechanics that make it faster phased and exciting, but it also makes the game easier.

    Added siege mode is also not as exciting as you think, it loses the feel of how strong each monster suppose to be.

    All in all, it's a very good and polished game.

Standalone apex monster hunts feel worthless since they do not have unique armors set or weapons for you to craft, unlike MHXX. Once you craft all the Rampage weapons you need, the Rampage game mode will not provide any purpose to you. Worst of all is the charm, for some reason, they decided charms can only be obtained via Alchemy instead of quest reward. All in all, I think they made a lot of head scratching decisions when developing this game. I hope they will amend the issues in later patch and DLC.… Expand

    It's Monster Hunter. Like every game before it. But now it feels like it's Hamstringed by the hardware of the system it's exclusive to instead of being a visually overdone like Monster Hunter World.

    Feeling small, incomplete, and as previously said is visually "meh" but I guess playing on more than 1 system has spoiled me and makes me look down upon hardware that's outdated on arrival.

They could have instead stylized it within the limits of the hardware.... but instead it just looks meh and feels like a small Monster Hunter game that REALLY isn't worth the full retail asking price. If it was a $30 game it would be worth it easily. But for $60...? I'd rather use that money to buy something on Steam and order Chinese Food.

    They could have done worse, but they really could have done better especially for the asking price. but I guess that's the current Nintendo Switch thing of asking too much money for too little of a product where in the past companies were self-aware wasn't worth it.    … Expand

Set building used to be like a 100+ piece puzzle, you'd plug in hundreds of pieces of armor with your talisman and weapon, and when you eventually found the proper combination of what you wanted it would feel incredibly satisfying, it was challenging but rewarding. While the new system feels like a 9 piece jigsaw puzzle designed for children under the age of 10, you throw random **** together for 10 minutes and you'll somehow end up with a max dps meta set that tears through anything, there is no challenge, after about a week of playing I have every set I will need until the DLC drops, it isn't fun, it's ****ty game design.

    The endgame, frankly, is **** mainly because THERE ISNT ONE, after you beat the main story there is no reason to to do anything, World had tempered monsters, GenU had deviants and 4U had guild quests and aged texts, what does Rise have? rampage weapons are borderline useless in their current form and rampage quests don't even give anything outside of materials for rampage weapons.

    The story is fine, it's MH you aren't here for an engaging story, you're here to hunt monsters and look badass while doing so, and in that sense Rise is amazing, everything that world had is here in spades, combat has never been so fluid, the silkbind attacks are implemented well, though they can be a little iffy at times, the wirebug in general is amazing, the level of exploration capabilities is insane. I'm a tad miffed that as of right now the story ends in a cliffhanger, though I believe that will be changed in the first DLC, strange that it wasn't in in the main game, but we live in strange times, so I cant really blame the devs too much on that front.

    I love MH, have since 2009
    I don't want to hate rise, I truly don't
    Hell I put 90 hours into it before I came to this conclusion
    But it just isn't all here and that leaves me disappointed

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Game does what it says it does unfortunately you can’t enjoy it without investing into the grind. You need to collect parts to upgrade to effectively process and if you don’t it’s going to be difficult. The game is a looting grind game but is made to fit into like an action rpg style with even minor story to boot which can be entertaining. It needs a special kind of person to enjoy it in its full glory.

    Fighting one monster can take in hour

    If you don’t own Nintendo online you miss a good chunk of content. Your fingers if you don’t have a good controller will probably get sore from long sessions. This is the most open game since the first games to new players.

    The combat is fast; keep those fingers moving. The monsters are interesting each different from the last. If you enjoy smashing buttons for long periods of time, hunting something from the deep for loot. This is for you.    … Expand

    Long time fan of the franchise, but this iteration feels really over simplified. Combat is clunky compared to the older titles, many of the weapons are worthless now. The graphics are awesome, looks spectacular. The loading screen times are a huge improvement. For me the rest of the game is a letdown, cribbing too much from MH World, arguably the worst MH game.

    After the huge success of the previous entry in the series (MHW), Rise was set up to be the best game the series has seen with a massive speed boost and streamlining of the features that drew players to World.

Despite this, I'll admit I was kinda disappointed and overall it isn't something I'll consider playing again in a while- I'll split the review into separate parts to understand.

    Presentation- When I first saw the textures on the environments I was overall sceptical due to the very apparent downgrade to the graphics and while I can accept the theory that this is due to 'hardware limitations', I simply cannot agree due to the games put out with much higher image quality before Rise was even announced. On the positive spectrum, however, it is appreciable that the Monsters still look as scary as always.

    Difficulty- many players were preaching about the inherent ease of the entry but I decided to ignore it and come to my own conclusion. So is it easy? Yes, and it's not for the better. Why are these giant creatures so ridiculously pathetic in the face of literally any weapon? I confronted this game solo and most beasts just provided 20-minute speed bumps that would just make me feel kind of bored. I think I only really had minor issues with were Teostra and Chameleos (end game challenges if you're wondering). The weapon you choose will really change your outlook on the game, I ran Charge Blade and was swiftly able to master the inputs to create stronger attacks and that was considered the most confusing weapon? Eh?

    Sound design- as someone who doesn't listen to videogame music; it was alright but it could've been better. (Also just something I thought was funny was the fact that you can set the town's theme to one of a monster's occasionally surprising people when they enter your lobby). My main gripe here is that I wish you could choose to toggle warnings of attacks, it just becomes annoying rather than helpful but when I used it, it felt like cheating in an already simple game so I ended up just playing with the sound of and then having my laptop play the theme to me in the background.

    Enjoyability- while in some points it created tedium, the ease allowed for a fun social activity which I would play on subsequent run-throughs of bosses and learning combos with the Charge Blade was always entertaining as I jumped into the air and ended up becoming more of a personal experience with the game as something you had in the background which from previous entries is something Monster Hunter looked like it would never become.

The monsters around the area have been acting strangely and attacking the village; a Rampage. You have to take up your plethora of weapon choices and quell the rampages to protect your village.
    To the vast majority, they will hate my thoughts and opinion on this game. I seem to find myself in the small percentage of people who just don’t find enough in the game to keep playing. Why? Monster Hunter Rise is a perfectly cooked, juicy chicken breast...that has no seasoning.

    In most aspects of the Monster Hunter series they solely focus on the game play mechanics and design. They excel in these areas with no hesitation. Monsters are creative and range from fire breathing kung fu kicking peacocks to giant thunder serpents. The monsters will have different status effects you need to learn and adapt too. Hunting them will reward you with parts of them to go back and craft new weapons or armor. All with unique effects and appearances related to the monster in which it came from.
    The different maps to explore are beautiful. There are so many weapon types to learn, you can spend just the first few hours trying to figure out which one you want to master. So where does this game fall?

    Story. For me personally that is one of the biggest gripes about this game. I am driven by a good story in a game. I will continue to play through a game even if the story is poor, just to see it finished. There is very little in Rise and what was established is exactly what I put first in this review. Constant missions consisting of “Go Hunt X Monster”. You head out into a map that never changes, everything organic to the map stays in the same place. The only thing that moves are the actual monsters. You slay the monster and return for your reward. To turn right back around and keep repeating the process.
    The only thing that breaks up the hunting is your inner village hub where you can gather a quest, eat food to buff you for your adventure, buy items, and send out cat mercenaries to gather supplies.
    The other downside is the insane amount of information that is thrown at you at the start of the game. Easily thirty to forty minutes of death by text boxes explaining the different mechanics introduced into the game. But the irritating thing is, they won't explain all the mechanics. I was recommended by other players to look up a wiki on the game to learn more information on how to do things.

    Monster Hunter is a game that has its following. The people who enjoy its game design and the developed game play absolutely love this series. I had fun when I spent a couple hours playing with friends. Seeing the new armor sets and wanting to make my hunter look awesome. But the fun quickly faded when playing alone. It turned to asking myself “Why am I playing this” and just turning off the console.    … Expand

Let me preface with I have been playing Monster Hunter since PS2 (the original). I have sunk several hundred hours into every game, so I could just be a jaded veteran (it certainly feels that way).

    Monster Hunter Rise is an okay Monster Hunter title. It is very short for a launch title and our group cleared every single piece of content in a little over a weekend of playing. This has never happened to us before in any Monster Hunter title.

    My biggest gripe is that they traded in the normal tactical essence of Monster Hunter for an action-combat buttonmashing festival. While I am sure many new players prefer this type of mindless combat over the older (albeit clunkier) style, it plays very unlike a Monster Hunter game.

    We went through every single Hub quest without ever needed to prep or practice a hunt. There were no butt-clinching moment of dodging right before fainting, or epic saves from team members. It was just go in, spam attack, wirebug away from big moves, wirebug back in, spam attack. It was a mindless experience.

    I know this is a Switch game, but MHGU had better textures and okay models. In MHR they went wiht amazing models and terrible textures. Many of the textures in the game are blurry, especially on NPC and PC models. I am still confused how MHGU had better antialiasing than MHR, which seems to have no antialiasing. Model lines are very jagged and hard.

    The sense of progression was muted since buttonmashing and wirebugs prevailed in every single fight. We didn't have a real sense of needing to upgrade armor/weapons. Near the middle of the Hub experience we ended up just making weapons more-so because they looked cool because it seemed irrelevant what our stats ended up being. No more prepping for elemental weakness or skills because it was absolutely not needed.

    They went insanely overboard with the Japanese theme. Way more thematic than previous games. If you're not a fan of Japanese culture/lore then it will get very annoying very fast since that's really all there is. It's not really a generic theme, it's more of an in-your-face Japan thing going on. For example, they renamed the Throwing Knife to Throwing Kunai. Not really a bad or good point, just thought I'd mention it.

    So far you might think I have nothing good to say about that game, but I did enjoy quite a few things.

    Palamutes are amazing, I really wish this was now retroactively in World and 4U/GU. Having double puppies is great. As a dog lover, it's amazing fighting besides these canines. The customization options are OUTSTANDING.

    The new monsters share the mechanics of old monsters, but a lot of them are interesting and fun to fight. I just wish they were actually a challenge. I really like this trend of visual differences, but keeping mechanics the same. It allows the devs to focus more time on creating a handful of truly unique monsters while retaining some nostalgia for older monsters while keeping them fresh at the same time.

    There's supposedly an update that is going to add the "harder" hunts later this month, so I might come back and update my review. If the game was harder and less reliant on cheesing everything with the wirebug I would have had a much better review of the game.

    tl;dr - This game should be called Monster Hunter Lite, it's very watered down and insanely easy. No point in prepping for hunts, or even upgrading equipment because every hunt is just a button-mashing fest where you jump in and out with the wirebug to dodge everything.    … Expand

Interrupting a fight to sharpen your weapon, who would want to do that while managing like 20 other things? Or taking forever to sheath your weapon before you can actually run, why?

    I was convinced by veterans of the series that this would be a great time to jump in but this game simply doesn't hold up to the stream-lined standard of modern games controls and mechanics. It just feels like an outdated port    … Expand

    Honest to goodness there are tons of positive reviews for MH Rise and I get it. But there are a number of relevant issues with the game on release. That's a terrible sign, and one that doesn't bode well to its overall potential compared to other games in the MH series.

    In previous MH titles players could use literally any controller available for their respective systems. Now that    Honest to goodness there are tons of positive reviews for MH Rise and I get it. But there are a number of relevant issues with the game on release. That's a terrible sign, and one that doesn't bode well to its overall potential compared to other games in the MH series.

    In previous MH titles players could use literally any controller available for their respective systems. Now that the fancy new bug-grapple is in, the GCN controller and possibly others are out. The real culprit is the button mapping, as there's also a new "ride monster" button (note: any other attack button also lets players ride monsters!) that must be mapped at all times, leaving GCN players no way to map every button they need in order to play the game properly with their controller of choice.

    Furthermore, maybe you're not an otaku or a shogun from the medieval time period and don't thoroughly enjoy listening to long-winded Japanese lyrical music on repeat. The game's audio in its start menu, hubworld and village exclusively offer this and little else - a stark difference to every previous installment's largely instrumental and iconic soundtracks. The equivalent of a Japanese nursery rhyme is included as well for the meal system, and it's there every time you forget to skip it. Dr. Seuss makes a cameo introducing players to their new hunting areas. Muting the audio and skipping every cutscene feels criminal after having listened to the in-game soundtracks on repeat since MH:Tri for the Wii. What on earth happened here?

    Then there's the multiplayer: everyone gets a dog to both hunt with and traverse on (wouldn't 250+ lbs be hard to lift for a dog? Nitpicking, granted) as well as a short-range bug grapple hook with a per-use cooldown that can be integrated into weapon attacks and combos and lets players go virtually anywhere in the game. Collecting items is way faster as players can collect most items while sprinting and without stopping - ON their new dogs! And thanks to said dogs plus the removal of the zone system a la World the game's overall pacing is vastly quickened, albeit at the cost of making the experience more frantic and less immersive.

    These changes are all somewhat interesting and stay fresh when questing with another player...but when 4 dogs, 4 players, 5+ velociprey, a Kulu-Ya-Ku, a Barroth and a partridge in a pear tree are on screen at once and characters talk over eachother whenever a monster so much as scratches its own dong "a bit messy" serves as a euphemism at best. Conversely, everyone spread out across all four corners of the map while doing their own thing is hardly a multiplayer experience. Winning aside, the game can become largely unplayable for those that keep getting their actions interrupted back-to-back by the 10+ entities on screen. Later on in ranks this will change as monsters become larger (except when targeting weak spots!) but for the average 3-4 player quest it is an utter eyesore and chaotic in arguably the worst way imaginable: a stark contrast to the crisp and polished gameplay of the vast majority of MH titles in the past.

    Despite all of this it's a mostly solid game, and hopefully patches will improve it. That being said, it deserves nothing close to the scores of past MH games, at least for a $60 title on launch. Most of its new features and design decisions are objectively experimental and niche, leaving the experience at the moment on the nose rather than on point like the rest of the MH series.    … Expand

    I don't understand why this game has so many positive reviews. I am not a huge monster hunter fan, but I played the PSP games and MH World and Rise feels like a significant step back in every category. After playing for almost 20 hours, I have not finished the village quests and honestly, I don't want to, now let me tell you why:

    Firstly, the music. Sweet mother of god please I am    I don't understand why this game has so many positive reviews. I am not a huge monster hunter fan, but I played the PSP games and MH World and Rise feels like a significant step back in every category. After playing for almost 20 hours, I have not finished the village quests and honestly, I don't want to, now let me tell you why:

    Firstly, the music. Sweet mother of god please I am begging you to include a soundtrack comprised of more than 30-second sound bytes that repeat endlessly for hours. The first thing I did, before even going on a hunt, was turn the music off completely. +1 for it being an option to turn that crap off, still not enough to make you a good game

    Secondly, the story. It May as well not be there, but no surprise there, it's monster hunter after all.

    Thirdly, the gameplay. Sucks genitals. Who in their right mind at Capcom thought it was a good idea to put out an action game like this WITHOUT A LOCK ON MECHANIC?! Its gotta be one of the most frustrating things in the world when you combine it with the fact that the hitboxes are inconsistent, clunky, and frankly make no sense. Critical hits seem to be random, sometimes they hit for 10 damage, sometimes 3, sometimes 1, sometimes it's like I hit a f'ing wall and am also a long-term alcoholic because I stumble for far too long before recovering. Additionally, the button delay. Screw you, you're not FromSoftware, you will not be able to make that fun in your game so please stop. The new mechanics the game advertises as a selling point are neat, but feel like something that would have been cool five years ago. Now that I think about it, thats a really good way to describe this game: "Would have been cool five years ago". What's that Capcom? I can essentially double jump and wall run? No way! It's like my balls dropped all over again! Whats that another time? I can ride a mount? Like a horse? Oh, not a horse? A mini horse? like a pony? Oh, you call it a palamute, totally a new mechanic. Perhaps I'm being a little too hard on the palamute, but then I remember he doesn't f'ing show up 90% of the time you hold down the button that's supposed to summon him. Again, I've been summoning mounts in games for over a decade, WTF?

    Lastly is just a general question: "why the hell do I care?". This game has no purpose. None at all. You drop into an, admittedly, very pretty hub, get some barebones information that doesn't make enough sense for it to be worth hearing, and then you proceed to do the same handful of tasks until you can't take it anymore and move on to a real game. Not to mention every design choice in this game is focused on frustrating the ever-living crap out of you and slowing you down. There's another review out there where someone mentions that "it's not harder, just more annoying", and man is that true. The game is painfully easy, and at the same time painfully frustrating. Everything mentioned before combined with the fact that it's the same stuff you're doing over and over again just makes the experience painfully frustrating. Like I said, im almost 20 hours in and I just feel like giving up after HR4 because whats the point? The starter armor they gave me is far better than anything I can craft (not to mention, if I wanted to craft it I would have to grind slaying the same monster I already killed endlessly), so the whole point of the game (crafting cool armor sets) seems superfluous.

    Thank god I bought this used, I am truly sorry for anybody who paid full price for what could ultimately be a mobile port of a once-great franchise. Play MH World, leave this on the shelf, it's not worth it.    … Expand

    I wanted to like this game. On paper this would seem to be what I want. Action RPG where you go fight monsters and gear up to go on the next hunting expedition.

Lot's of systems to dig into and work on. Instead what I found was an action game with some on the most cumbersome controls I've ever experienced, with barely any explanation of how to use the weapon appropriately.

    Every system in the game, from crafting and upgrading weapons, to training up your Palicoes and Palamutes, to just connecting with players for a hunt, is all just needlessly complicated. I went and watched hours of Youtube videos to try and parse all of this, finding out that there are tons of weapon moves that are never explained in the game, different scores on your Palicoes that you want to aim for, and levels of minutiae that would only be appealing to an accountant. Even the fastest weapon in the game feels unbelievably slow and clunky to play. Trying to chain combos to do anything just has such weird timing that you feel like you get trapped in an animation loop. Then you're just dodging around the monster waiting for it to reach the point in its cycle where you can actually do something. Everything about the game just feels like it's from an older era of games that I'm happy to leave behind.

    I understand people love these games, and had I experienced them back in the day maybe I'd feel similarly, but the sheer amount of effort necessary to get to passable with this just feels off. Overcoming the monster should feel like a triumph, but instead I just feel like I've finished some kind of obnoxious homework assignment. I don't hate the game, but it is not something I'm going to spend any more time on, especially with so many other great games available at the moment.

    For anyone thinking of picking this up I would highly suggest checking out some of the videos or the demo before buying, as the reviews don't really dig into the mountain you're trying to climb with this.    … Expand

    There's nothing left. Literally nothing. It's pretty disappointing. There's not much filler in the game other than just grinding the ol' monster's. But this time around, they pretty much give you everything on a silver pixelated platter.
    The wirebug feature is cool for the first couple hours but    Honest review after getting to HR7, ful HR Mag Armor and about 13 sns's max ranked now.
    There's nothing left. Literally nothing. It's pretty disappointing. There's not much filler in the game other than just grinding the ol' monster's. But this time around, they pretty much give you everything on a silver pixelated platter.

    The wirebug feature is cool for the first couple hours but then becomes a real chore. Hunting wise it provides a couple extra dodges (which aren't needed really if you get hit) or a powerful attack that equals out anyway if you just attacked. I imagine someone on youtube might make a nice montage of wirebug stuff, but thats about it. Exploration wise. Fun for little while but just a chore later on. Already collected or seen X, Y, and Z. Everything else is me. The dog and the Wirebug is Meh at best.

    I get that they wanted you to focus on hunts and not worry about all the extra grindy stuff like mining or herbs or whatever. But it's a grindy game to begin with. They give you tools for exploration but then make the rest simplistic. It's dumb and counter-intuitive.

    Monsters are the absolute easiest I've played in the 17 years I've been with the franchise. Worst part is, there really isn't much variety. I swear they must have taken away movesets from franchise favorites and the new monsters introduced are just punching bags. And wirebug dodging makes them easier. The end boss leaves you wondering about the rest of the game.

    Talismans have you praying to RNG gods and are probably the most grindy of the features without actually grinding whatsoever.

    The game pretty much throws you everything. I'm a fan of QoL features but this game went overboard. I remember how people were in massive complaint over how easy World was and how it took away so much "from monster hunter" But this game pretty much took even more out of it, on top of that it's even easier.

    Honestly... I'm just disappointed that it could have been more... Ya know, without having to wait a month or whatever until their patch or promise they'll be adding more content. Because there is nothing left. I can't believe this is actually a finished product to be honest.    … Expand

    Ive given 3 monster hunter games a try and Rise will be the last, no matter what advertising says was improved these are daed to me. I would describe monster hunter games as the series that is "like that other game, but intentionally tedious and frustrating.

    Sound/music - What is in the game is acceptable, but annoying and repetitive. Song clips are short bursts of 30-40 seconds of    Ive given 3 monster hunter games a try and Rise will be the last, no matter what advertising says was improved these are daed to me. I would describe monster hunter games as the series that is "like that other game, but intentionally tedious and frustrating.

    Sound/music - What is in the game is acceptable, but annoying and repetitive. Song clips are short bursts of 30-40 seconds of music that you're going to be hearing through an entire 30-50 minute hunt.

    Story - Like all monster hunter games the story exists because other games have story. It is inconsequential and skipping everything the game will let you skip won't impact the game in any way. You're doing some random story about a rampage but you go hunt random monsters that are just living life. The fact that I can't just skip all of the story despite it being useless is baffling but whatever the core design of Monster hunter is developers saying "hahahaha that'll piss the players off".

    Visual/Graphics - Monster hunter has alwasy skimped on visuals and graphics to allow them to put out more product more quicky, however it actually has impact in a game thats all about timing hits and dodges in clunky combat. The lack of smooth frame rates and character movements will result in you missing an enemy and getting hit by their move. The end result is that the combat ends up being slower than most early gaming JRPGs. Its somethiing you can learn to play around but it would work much better if it just worked as you see it rather than having to learn the little nuances that conflict with your senses.

    Gameplay - This is what really matters and where Monster hunter baffles me endlessly. Every aspect of interacting with the game as a player sseems to be made intentionally annoying, not difficult, annoying. Tutorial menu/blurb, push a to close, "Are you sure?" - default selection of "No", move cursor... select yes. Talk to the same person again cause you just want to upgrade your weapon. Oh hey another annoying menu pop up with the tedious multi click requirement. Loading times have been improved but are still annoying. The tutorial/introductory zone "shrine ruins" features 3 large monsters to fight. Of course you can't just grab the quest for all 3 monsters go to the shrine ruins and explore everything and hunt the monster... That would be fun and make sense. You have to select each monster one at a time, load in hunt that one monster, leave, turn in the quest, select the next monster you already guaranteeably encountered (cause they are all in the zone every time you go), go back to the zone, repeat everything you did the previous time, repeat all of the above again for the 3rd monster... and so on.

    While what i'm describing should already sound like a form of torture... it gets worse! The monsters you are hunting run away... all of them. What does this add to the game? More tedium, delays and annoyance. It isn't more realistic (if something you're hunting IRL runs away that **** is gone). It isn't more fun to stop the fight move locations and start the same fight again. You can't lock on to something like in a good game, you can choose which large monster you're hunting, and tap R to focus the camera on it (for a nano second) then its back to flailing wildly, so as a player you constantly have to just tap R prior to unloading your combo, again this isn't because its more challenging, more realistic, more fun its just another little frustration that works better in every other game its in. Hit boxes for yourself and monster are just atrocious, sometimes the hit registers normal and does normal damage sometimes you hit the armored part of the animal and do less damage, visually though you hit the same spot 4 times and it just said F-You 1 of them. Monsters get the same benefit, sometimes you're no where near the visual of their move but you're getting hit all the same because F-You thats why. Ive seen the swing of a monsters claws hit a player in front of them and hit me who is about 2 feet behind them sharpening my weapon.

    Sharpening your weapon is another insanely frustrating thing, its literally a "must do" function roughly every 20-25 swings of a weapon, which comes very quickly. Usually in one of the 20 encounters you'll have with the monster prior to them running away to delay the fight you'll have to sharpen for every single one.

    At the end of everything all i can say is that I am shocked and amazed that monster hunter still exists. The only thing Monster hunter truly excels at is making other games look amazing. Games with real monster targeting are incredible, games with varied high production sound tracks are incredible, games with tight controls and well constructed combat are incredible. Games that push the graphics and programming of a system hardware are incredible. Games that take the time to polish the UI to make the game accessible and user friendly are incredible. Monster hunter is none of these things.    … Expand

You’ll soon want to get your money back. I beat the game and I died 4 times. When I mean beat the game. I meant beat every single mission possible. Solo... it took me 130 hours. And I wish I had my life back. I didn’t enjoy it but I forced myself to play it cause of how amazing this game is apparently. Difficulty spikes- absolutely none. A braindead mentally ill frog can beat this game no prob. Especially with the wire bug mechanic. Allowing you to rush in like a moron and swig and when your going to get attacked. Wirebug out. Rinse repeat. You win the whole game. The only times Ive died is because of the stupid stun mechanic. I wanted a more fluid difficult monster hunter game. What I got was a clunky mess made to annoy you instead of challenge you. When I mean annoying. Omg the whole game is just that, annoying and tedious. Nothing difficult at all... just adding stuff to prolong the fights. More rare things to take longer to get the armor and weapons you want. And so on and so fourth. Monsters running away- WHO THE HELL THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA.... I’ve played every single mh game to date. Never have I seen monsters run away ever single 3 min. And if they do it’s only a small proportion to the map. Like the next zone. Noooope in this game the monster will run all the way across the map and then 30 seconds later do it again to the original spot. Repeat that 5-10 times a fight and you got yourself mhr. The rideable dogs- idk what their called. Nor do I care. Plz for the love of god fix their broken ai. I’m trying to get on them but their 50 yards away attacking something that is irrelevant. And once their next to you it’s a nightmare trying to get on them. Half the time when you hold down A they just sit there and do nothing. Waisting more of your time.

    Content- I have never seen a mh game with so little content. You’d think after all this time someone would understand that it’s ok to have difficult fights for veterans and easy fights for the braindeads. But naaaa. Only easy fights so that it’s available for EvEryOne.... because of inclusiveness. Content huh. What content? Same exact fights but in different arenas. Is not content. They scale up the difficult for each monster a single time. And call that content. No armor changes nothing.... Actually sad. What happens when you beat the game. Nothing. Because there is not endgame. Their actually is not ending for Christ sakes. Like ARE YOU KIDDING ME? monster hunter isn’t supposed to be a game where little content gets added every month. Like just give me the game I paid 80$ For. And then add the content little by each month. Not give us a half assed game and add on something that should have been in the game in the first place. AND $1.50 for a dam hair set. ARE YOU KIDDING ME. THESE PRICES ARE ROBBERY. Online- the online is the only good thing in this game. If you want to get a quest done. Or grind to weapons and gear but don’t want to spend 40 min grinding a monster you can make it where people can join you on your hunt. Which is really cool. Execpt for the fact that it makes the hunt completely trivial. Or you can get brain dead teammates who don’t understand what a health potion does. Or what armor even is. And died 3 times in a row ending the hunt and making it where you get no rewards. Because someone else messed up. Really? Why??? Punishing someone for something they didn’t do is retarded. I didn’t like it in the other monster hunter games and I hate it now. Hr999- I want to at least play the game to raise my hr so that something is progressing. But no... adding numbers is too difficult for the developers apparently. Adding 2 monsters in the hr999 update makes no sense. Why not just have the update bring more monsters. And already have the 999. Makes no sense. How are 2 monsters going to drastically change how the hr system works. Really makes you think....

    I don’t understand how anyone would give this a 5 and up. It must have been either the only monster hunter game they’ve ever played. Or complete fanboys of mh who do anything. For a broken mess of a game. As long as it has mh in the title. Or also idiots who don’t understand when their getting screwed over.    … Expand

    Worst game in the history of the franchise. Capcom what are yall smoking? Charge more and remove so much from the game? It's like a mobile port of a real game with seriously off hit boxes and so much lag it's impossible to play

    After a few hours I put my opinion on it, I had a lot of apprehension about this opus and some were confirmed. Good gameplay but it's all, no difficulty and no content. I've been introduce to the series with freedom unite / portable 2nd G and i feel it like a game for child, too easy.

    Way to easy , too much Focus on Action ,no Endgame , too much Effects (and yet no epilepsy warning),Unbalanced weapons ( slicing ammo & Bow ) and the list goes on.
    The only Positive aspects of MH Rise : fast loading times and the training area ,other than that its just a huge disappointment.
    Kamura and the NPCs sucks btw

    Monster Hunter Rise is absolutely phenomenal. It will be a worthy contender for GOTY but could easily be discussed as Game of the System. [Issue #4, p. 49]

    I’m impressed by how well the developers thought this game through. Rise simultaneously improves the formula used in World and makes Monster Hunter more friendly towards newcomers. It makes great use of Switch’s nature and by clearly separating the multiplayer from the single-player campaign, it ensures you’re going to have fun regardless of the circumstances. Apart from one subpar mode (which imitates a tower defense), it’s an amazing game. [06/2021, p.42]

    Rise has taken note of the franchise’s most successful elements, and refined them into the best Monster Hunter yet. By continuing the streamlining that Generations and World started, Rise has focused on making the actual hunting the most engaging it has ever been.
