Boy Meets Monster Hunter World
I've known about Monster Hunter for almost ten years now and never once did I feel like delving into it. The game series looks hard , has a ton of grinding involved, and looks extremely complicated. Back in 2009 when Monster Hunter Tri came out for the Wii, my thought process was: 1. Your weapons can break? Nope. 2. Complex crafting system that involves hours of grinding? Nope. 3. Hidden game mechanics that aren't explained too well? Nope. 4. I have to prep before going into battle? Nope. 5. Boss battles (hunts) that can last several minutes...just to collect items? Nope. That's what kind of gamer I was back then. But the SoulsBorne franchise has since changed that. I now understand the joy and satisfaction of patient gaming. I love figuring out patterns and developing strategies. I learned to love practicing techniques to overcome larger than life bosses. I have gotten used to weapon durability and learned to appreciate the way it mixes up gameplay...
