I’ll admit I was a little bit anxious about Monster Hunter Wilds.
I honestly wasn’t sure for a while if I would even play it.
I was excited to move onto Monster Hunter Rise, but it just wasn’t for me.
Had I bounced off the series completely?
Hammer in hand or perhaps even two I’m pleased to report: I’m back on the hunt.
Rise above
We loved the full game!
I’ve watched people play a lot of it and I can see it’s definitely a good game.
Or maybe that it still felt like a Nintendo Switch port somehow?
Perhaps it was too many new mechanics like the Palamutes and Wirebugs that overwhelmed me?
The more vertical maps?
The (once again) confusing menus back at base?
The ill-judged tower defense sections?
It just made me feel very stressed out.
The maps here are massive, and the visual design is gorgeous.
But perhaps most importantly, I also love how combat has been tweaked.
This new feature is a fantastic addition.
