What if I told you that the games have been getting easier over time to reach larger audiences? Hard to believe? Boot up 4U and GU, see for yourself. Its not like you cant replay these games as a veteran.

I replayed 4u before servers went down and still play gu to this day. They are both pretty easy until g rank and don't get really difficult until endgame g rank, deviants, and event quests. Same with world piss easy until behemoth then iceborne is really easy and doesn't require a build until alatreon and raging brachydios. Rise was super easy until event quest apex then with sunbreak, not until high anomaly levels. Mh, in general, is easy for vets until they add in the super hard stuff in post launch.

I remember the mountains of salt Alatreon generated because people were so furious that they had to create an actual build for it.

Tbh my hugest gripe with World will always be how obnoxious it felt trying to get really any good sort of jewels. I prefer the 4U system where you had an entire system dedicated to them that way you'd still need to grind for them but not have to deal with a whole complicated smorgeboard of stuff.

Once you learn monster can only turn 90 degrees you start to notice just how easy healing really is
