   This game is loads of fun. I've already put more hours into it on the first day than it takes to complete certain games. Every weapon(There are 12 weapon types) feels like a completely different game, and each is fun. To add each fight feels different, even if it is the same monster 6 times in a row. This game is the most fun thing I've ever played.… Expand

   As my first foray into the series I was pleasantly surprised! It shares many similarities with action RPGs like Dark Souls or Fable. I find the game to start off quite slowly, taking anywhere up too 5 hours to hook the player in; however, the game becomes quite fun from there on out. This game is a pack rats dream. There is so much to explore, collect, kill, combine, and just simply learn about the game. One downside, if you can call it that, is that there isn't much of a story much of it is presented in cutscenes of new locations or animals to hunt.
   
   This game isn't just the best Action RPG on the Wii U but it's a game that others without a Wii U will pine over.… Expand

   Like a bunch of other people on here, this is my first Monster Hunter game. I must say this game is wildly addicting and fun, even if the mechanics are fairly simplistic. It's typically, get assigned a quest, go out and kill/gather the quest target, come back and upgrade your character a little bit, then repeat now that you're slightly stronger. The game does it in a way where it's never boring though. My first big monster I encountered took me a long time to kill because I wasn't using any strategy and I was just trying to button mash it to death. After figuring out where and when to strike, and also utilizing a few tools, I was able to take him down. The battles are long and can be pretty epic, especially if you start to run low on resources during a fight or you're running out of time to complete the mission you're on. Monster Hunter feels like a cross between 80% Phantasy Star Online and 20% Dark Souls. If you liked PSO you will LOVE this game. The multiplayer feels a bit like an action MMO too with each character having specific combat roles. Can easily see myself putting in hundreds of hours into this game/series… Expand

   First off this game is a rip off $60 for a goty edition of an old game.There is really nothing good about this game the graphics are a joke the controls are clunky and its so boring. people say on miiverse it takes 9 hours to get good sorry a game should be good from the start.The collision detection is the worst ive seen my character literally disappeared when I skinned my kills.The only people that will enjoy this game is fanboys of the series.If you never played monster hunter don't get this you will be disappointed. The only fun I had with this game was arguing with the fanboys on the mh3 community in the miiverse about how horrible the game is (who are over sensitive about a game).If they sold this game for $40 it wouldn't be so bad but $60 for this is a joke.So beware this game is bad… Expand
