MONSTER HUNTER RISE

Capcom went and did it again. They brought an amazing game to PC and it runs so smoothly. The cutscenes are a little choppy at times, but there aren't many of them. The scenery looks so much better than the Switch release and the monsters are actually visible. Aside from that, it's Monster Hunter. Expect to spend 1000s of hours grinding.

The same Monster Hunter formula with a decent amount of new moves and a decent amount of content that would be sure to grow in time. For those wanting more there is already an expansion underway in 2022. Whether you're new or a veteran of the series it's a high recommendation for people wanting to experience this entry in the franchise

If you loved MHW you will very likely love this one too. There are changes, but i would say majority of them are better. Recommend completely!

Great game would recommend, I love how you are able to have companions that are customizable

Good game. I like the quality of life improvements. Now I can do a hunt and go about my day. Works great on the steam deck.

One of the best games I've played lately. It's very fun and truly addicting.

Excellent progression. The feel of the old games with the speed of world. Speedy mobility gives the game a great pace.

Played on switch originally (150 hours base game and 150 hours on sunbreak), and it was certainly a step back from world in terms of combat (as it has been reduced to counters and "hunter arts" style moves), but it has a very active playerbase there. Without the active players this game nosedives in quality, and therefore really isn't worth playing on pc stock because it's nearly impossible to find players even on the most recent quests. You can blame region-locked matchmaking for that (assuming it works at all). Even with a mod to remove the region lock, the game is dead multiplayer unless you are doing the VERY highest level content. It certainly doesn't help that the endgame is pure exploitative "habituation" grinds, which clearly burned so many out, but you still can find groups easily on switch for most quests. The game just plain doesn't work solo with how aggressive monsters are now. So if you do not want to mod, just stay far away. Since monster aiming, monster move cooldown time, monster down-state time as well as player hitlag and player down state time are all tied to framerate, the game is for the worse here too. That said, mods improve the experience so heavily (even allowing npc companions to go on all hunts with you) that the modded experience is the definitive way to play.
