Friend got me this as an early Christmas present after we spent around a month playing Generations Ultimate together. As somebody who is really used to the old school Monster Hunter games I wasn’t sure how jarring it would be to have much more fluid controls, but I got used to it quickly enough, and most of the quality of life improvements were much appreciated. I really liked the new monsters in this one, there’s probably a couple standouts for me but they’re all good. The graphical improvements over GU are very noticeable and the music is gorgeous. Overall a really good game, though it’s a significant departure from older games so if you’re the opposite of me and getting into the series more broadly from playing the newer titles, just be warned they’re a lot more difficult, at times bordering on clunky or unfair with certain mechanics(though that’s part of the charm I suppose).
