I don't think the GAME in this game stinks like some people. Sure, it isn't anything special but I think it is certainly serviceable. Plus, SAND TECH! The story itself is where this game shines and how this game tells that story. Play should always reinforce the thesis. It straddled the line of "Commentating the thing by just doing the thing" and "Contextualizing the thing while you are doing the thing to differentiate the thing".

Corny as all get out but...it mostly works? Super short so can't fall under its own weight.

Constantly feeling like World didn't shave as many edges off as I had thought. I know World isn't supposed to work as an entry that you work backwards from necessarily, only get you prepped for what's next but it feels a lot easier to hop in knowing what things DO via MHW.
