Dude I have been shredded on here and on my alt for saying this game is way, wayyy wayyyy too easy. Mind you, I did it in a very polite and non negative way.
I said "this game feels incredible and looks amazing but it's far too easy. I worry about what they will be able to do to save face and make it a challenge because if tempered HR feels like this then G rank or deviants are still gonna be childs play".
I dealt with so much hate. People literally PMing me to insult me lol. Fucking wild. I never even had to make a build. I am still wearing rarity 4 armor, I only have 2 weapons I used (upgraded one of them max). I never even bothered using armor spheres. I have never even bothered going out in the environment to gather anything. The game plays itself.
This is basically how I feel. I've not had to play out builds at all, never used armor spheres, no need for ancient potions or drugs. It's a bummer honestly. Haven't tried the new stuff yet but it seems a step in the right direction, but I just wanna go back to GU at this point.
I even enjoyed Rise after some updates. It was a bit too easy for most the content, but it was still fun with the grind, gameplay loop and the bit of challenge end game.
What's crazy is I have never even been great at Monster Hunter lmfao. I never soloed furious Rajang in world (he was easy AF in rise) never solod Raging Brach, never beat Fatalis or Altreon!
Like, I am not good at this game. No reason my hunts are 6-15 minutes (absolutely max 15 when I'm fucking around and messing with new mechanics or new weapons I'm not comfortable with)
Yep and it’s the same formula for wilds it gets harder after every update and then it gets even harder when g rank comes capcom has been doing the same shit for years now this is how I see it LR is easy mode, HR is normal mode, and MR is hard mode
No I definitely agree with. My issue is how absurdly easy HR tempered was. HR tempered was 2x easier then end of LR hunts in world. That's where my gripe lies.
Sure, future content will tune up the difficulty some, but my anxiety lies in how absurdly easy the content is that my fear is if tempered HR die in 8 minutes without even upgraded gear I was afraid that it would take G rank devient+++ to add a level of challenge.
With that being said im currently ignorant about current state of the game because I haven't played the update. I am probably going to skip it for later updates in hopes that when I come back there's enough of a challenge for me to feel the need to get better and crank out builds to win some of the more challenging content.
Everyone plays games for different reasons and has their own things they like. What I like about monster hunter is the never ending laundry list of things I need to do :"I need to hunt blank for more pieces to hopefully complete my build. X is a difficult fight I'm struggling on so let's work on getting his pattern down a bit better. I need to eventually kill monster Y so let's go make a weapon that is the element it's weak against. I have to beat this blank monster to get said weapon but he's a bit of challenge so now I need to go grind some consumables for the biggest advantage I can come up with"
I haven't felt any of that being able to easily kill every monster with weak gear and no specific build.
Honestly my take on it is that it’s gonna be easier because of game mechanics not that monster are scaled any differently the reason you think it’s easier is because you have knowledge of how monster hunter games work plus the new mechanics in wilds and G rank will definitely be harder because that’s where most of the challenging fights are gonna be
I disagree though when I have been playing for 20 years. I haven't felt like I've improved at monster hunter in 10 years lol.
I'm not saying anything about G rank. Maybe G rank will be a massive jump up in difficulty.
However if I compare LR/HR Gen, LR/HR World, LR/HR RIse with the low rank and high rank wild, wild is just exponentially easier.
Also, I didn't even know about the wound system until the very end of the game. I have had a lot going on lately and most of my gaming occurred well sleep deprived and I somehow missed the wound system til very late on.
You might be getting downvoted because it sounds like you are trying to brag for internet epeen by saying the game is "way, wayyy wayyyy too easy". I've been wanting harder hunts too but I wouldn't assert there is no challenging content in the game
Even before TU1, people were absolutely carting to max strength Temp Gore. Obviously you learn it and make it less scary but I'll never pretend like it was always easy from the jump. Because that would be a lie
Difficulty is relative too, gotta keep that in mind. If you really believed there was no challenges at any point in the game you probably are either lying or have hundreds and hundreds of hours most players do not
Nope, actually I've said multiple times that I suck at monster hunter really lol. I have never soloed furious Rajang or Raging Brach in world. Never beat Altreon or Fatalis even with teammates lol
I struggled and hit a wall in generations late game in which I never even completed all the content.
I was able to beat all of Rise no problems at all.
Like I said, I didn't say it in a rude, cocky or nasty way. Reddit is toxic and gaming subs are even more toxic.
Despite saying the game feels fantastic and explaining how many walls I've hit in many monster hunters people still got extremely angry with me. I actually went to edit the post you replied to because I realized I didint include how I'm not even good at Monster Hunter lol.
That's a huge part of the fun for me though is having something to work towards. I don't wanna destroy every monster in 8 minutes and not even need consumables or upgraded current rarity gear.
I'm absolutely not lying at all. All the content in base game was way way too easy. I do have hundreds of hours in monster hunter. I have been playing since the very first one released, but like I said, I have NEVER been good and have often hit walls I was never able to beat and have had MANY monster hunters I was never able to finish because I'm ass at the games. I would go as far as to say that the hardest hunts in Wilds are only 1/2 as hard as high rank in Rise base game
All of this with rarity 4 armor, no build, one max weapon and only one other mostly max upgraded weapon, no armor spheres. Like I said, I never even ended up making a build. There was just no point when the game plays itself.

Yeah, that's the fucking point. We want the hard fights.
