This is before the April update, but already this game is going to be one of the highlights of my year. I'm not a fan of how much it trivializes a lot of key aspects of older games by removing any need to prepare before a hunt (like, you can access your item box at any time from a camp. Why.), as well as not even needing to track monsters or learn their habits because everything just shows up on the map now; it just feels like a glorified boss rush. Fortunately though, each fight is really fun, the wirebugs add a lot to make the movement feel really good, and it's just an absolute blast to play with friends, especially the Rampage quests (aka tower defense). If you haven't played MonHun before, this is a perfect place to start (although it's really hard to go back to the older games grumble grumble). I really can't wait for the future updates and eventual G-rank stuff.

Edit - post April update: Holy fuck I love this game
