    A marvellous co-op action RPG wrapped into a wonderful and fun monster hunting game.

    The variety of bosses is strong and the combat/reward loop is wonderfully addictive. If nothing else, the fact that every Behemoth, armour set and weapon can be unlocked without spending a penny makes it well worth checking out."

    Dauntless kind of took me by surprise. While I expected a game that was Monster Hunter-like, and it is, I actually prefer Dauntless’ progression path, as it’s not discouraging overall. Yes, there’s a big grind the higher tier you get, but the payoff for finally crafting that new armor or weapon is fantastic. If you’re paired with a poorly skilled team, you’ll most likely fail, but I love that it’s simply fighting the Behemoths without useless filler in between, so getting right back into the thick of things doesn’t take long with the cross play enabled. It’s free to play, so might as well check and see if it’s a hunt you’ll want to partake in.

    Dauntless can be extremely addicting. Needing a part to upgrade or craft a weapon will make you want to “do one more hunt” before turning it off. The sheer amount of gear options and mastery levels will give you a seemingly endless objective that’s based entirely on your OCD for completion. I’m excited to see what the future holds for such an amazing concept.

    If Fortnite and Monster Hunter had a baby, it would be a lot like Dauntless.

    Dauntless is essentially Monster Hunter but simpler. That’s certainly not a bad thing in my eyes. And to sweeten the deal even further, it’s free. You can spend money to speed up certain processes and make your character more unique if you like, but it’s not required to have a lot of fun. Unlike many other free-to-play games, Dauntless never makes you feel like you’re missing out if you don’t spend any money. Needless to say, if you’re after an action RPG along the lines of Monster Hunter to really sink your teeth into, you can’t go wrong with Dauntless.

    If you’re a fan of the action RPG genre and love to dish out major pain to monsters that would otherwise eviscerate you, you’ve found the game.

    I enjoy it and don’t agree with all the hate. It’s free so give it a try for yourself, no harm in that.

    Another game not deserving all the hatrage.
    I give a 10 again to make things more balanced for this game. It is a solid 7/8 but it's a game

    I give a 10 again to make things more balanced for this game. It is a solid 7/8 but it's a game which is improving by the day.

    It's a fun game with a very good gameplay (I actually find it way more refreshing than Monster Hunter).
    The online server issues have been apparently solved, resolving all the main issues one could have about his game.

    This game is about you liking or not liking the genre. I would describe this game as a boss battling based game. it satisfies me.

The game is straight to the point with decent grind for a free game. Good graphics, some bugs, nice behemoths, interesting "dungeons". Please keep in mind, that even you are going to spend tons of money, you still need some skill to play. The later is a big plus for me. Expand

    It's not a bad game, but neither a particularly good one either. This is mostly due simply because of it's repetitiveness in all areas.
