Okay, I know what you’re thinking. “Didn’t Monster Hunter Wilds just come out? Why are you playing a game that came out 8 years ago, practically to the day?” Well I can tell you its because I’m turning into a little goblin freak for Monster Hunter and want to scratch that itch on my brain until the title updates come out for Wilds. Plus, I’ve tried to mess around with this game on more than one occasion and I’ve never progressed too far. Speaking with some of my friends, it seems the same happened to them as we’re all about the same HR. So come with me on a journey to really dig into what may prove to be the swan song of the techincal and fiddly era of Monster Hunter games.
The last time I can figure I played this game with any enthusiasm beyond checking my HR, as far as I can tell, was September 21 2020. This may also be the first time I did any real damage on the game, though I did buy it from Amazon on November 22 2018. I know I messed around with it here and there but I’m going to stay with the September 2020 date as my start date. Today upon booting it up I was greeted with my character, Buffalo and his trusty Palico sidekick, Chuck (some things never change). Apparently I was a Sword & Shield user but I also dabbled with Long Sword, Dual Blades and Switch Axe. Now that I’m back I’ve gone full Switch Axe sicko and have started to work towards a blademaster armor build.
It’s funny to say I’ve “bounced off” a game that I have played for close to 27 hours, but with Monster Hunter they seem to tune these games for people to sink thousands of hours into. I’ve barely scratched the surface of this and looking through the games menus, I find it hard to believe that I’m HR3 and have 27 hours in. I feel like I have 30 or 40 in Wilds and I’m so much further beyond. There was a theory flying around social media that Wilds isn’t just easier, we’ve all gotten better at Monster Hunter and I do think there is something to that, especially as I go back to this title.
