World isn't even easy lol. Not the hardest MH, but it's not an "easy" game. Doesn't help that people who've played every other previous entry inside and out call it too easy, not realizing their skill is just simply higher.

No first gen MH has G-Rank and there's no HP bar for the monsters. There's damage, which can be turned off.

IGN scores are a joke

They re-reviewed Rainbow Six Siege and gave it an 8.5 with a complaint about no single-player content while Overwatch was a 9.5 at launch just because

.........

That being said, good to hear that it's doing good, especially for the first time back on consoles in a while

Not at all.

I'd call MH the anti-casual game.

Obviously, but there needs to be some consistency with their scores. Everything is either a 7-8 or a 9-10 with IGN with very little middle ground

I've never played a MH game before and this one looks pretty interesting. It's a shame that I have to choose between playing a laggy version on the base PS4 or waiting months for the PC release.

I think that's a problem inherent in the 10 point review system. 1-6 is basically bad, 7 and 8 are good and 9 and 10 are great. Don't even get me started on dumb scores like "7.8" or some shit.

5 point reviews make much more sense to me. 1 is terrible, 2 is bad, 3 is good, 4 is great, and 5 is excellent.

From what I've seen, they're mostly bitching that there's less grind. The incredibly rare, gotta kill this monster a thousand times for a chance at it dropping, gems can now be crafted with enough material like everything else in the game, and apparently that's making the game "casual".

I agree. There's less assumptions that a 5 means a perfect game compared to a 10 also

Woah, they didn't rate a game for kids with the same objectivity as a game for adults?! Crazy!....good thing you're not a reviewer cause you don't know how that shit works at all. I never got into Gods Hand but I doubt it deserved that. The comparison is idiotic tho. Just someone really wanting to feel like they're smarter than the system

MH is like 90% casual and 10% "holy shit difficult." The vast majority of hunts aren't really hard and nearly all the game is spent grinding them for parts to upgrade equipment. The endgame, though, usually consists of 1 to 3 crazy difficult hunts that require a coordinate team of people to take on in order to have a shot, which rewards the chance at parts that can be used to... upgrade equipment.

MH is basically like a MMO without the dailies and all the raids are set to heroic.

Casual isn't about just difficulty, it's about how much the game holds your hand, and MH games have never held your hand.

Are you actually hunting giant monsters most of the time in those games? Every time I've seen a friend play one they were just like wandering or talking to npcs for a long time.

Is the combat similar to bloodborne? I didnt particularly enjoy bloodborne.

similar to bloodborne boss battles, but not as fast paced.
