Ok guys hear me out, what im about to say may sound crazy Dont drive, walk to things ,the city is alive driving only if its on the other side of the city, the immersion is actually pretty top notch
Though it has been said many times already in the comments, I too would like to express my thanks for this review. One of the things that frustrate me is when certain other reviewers prioritise multiplayer experiences in videogames, which can make it hard for a solo player to decide whether to purchase a game or not. The game may have a solo campaign / story mode, but if the review is all about multiplayer, or if the game only really works as a multiplayer, then that's a red flag for me. Then there's also the controls. Even though there's a demo for MH: Rise and I've tried it, I've found it hard to wrap my head around all of the controls available in the game. I could probably 'hack and slash' my way to a degree, but if I want to 'get guud' then I need more practice... and I only got a few more attempts of the demo left. Your video has basically sold me that, if I stick with it I can learn to like this game (and other similar games such as MH Generations, or God Eater 3). I'll wait for a deep sale, but next time that comes around, I'll probably give it a shot.
The one thing missing from this video was armor and decoration skills. Those are vitally important to consider when considering what armor to craft, plus there's a separate crafting list for armor if you just like the look of a particular set.
lmao i just saw this & been playing MHR for a week now after i bought it on eshop, & im on 6 star level on HUB Quest by doing solo i didn't now it was meant for co-op as of now i have no problem facing those magnamalo's 🤣 im just shocked because i literally had no idea. PS: my village quest is only 3 star.
Yes and I'd even argue it's better than multiplayer. Doing village quests I had to learn patterns, upgrade my gear and generally be a lot more involved with the mechanics. In multiplayer I didn't need any of that. There's always one or two players beating the sh*t out of the monsters why everyone else's job was simply not to die...
I bought this game recently after watching the review and have put about 50 hours into it, and just started on the Sunbreak DLC. After playing solo throughout most of the game (aside from a couple urgent quests that were played online with strangers), I can say it's definitely got a learning curve. For instance, the game has 3 difficulties, Low Rank (the one you start out with), High Rank (unlocked after 4* hub completion) and Master Rank with the Sunbreak DLC after 7* hub completion. Online guides are sort of missing bits and pieces, trying to navigate the weapon trees means going to higher ranks and defeating the higher tier monsters to unlock new options. Also, gear gets quickly outdated in all 3 difficulties, at Master Rank, my rathalos high rank armour had way less armour than a Great Izuchi in Master Rank, one of the first monsters you might fight. You basically restart the game at those points (aside from having to craft lower tier weapons to upgrade to high tiers). I'd definitely recommend playing with friends, the first 20-30 hours are probably spent just catching up to the point where veterans who have been playing for years are at.
ik im late (2 years to be exact) but the reason why you drift better without the ideal racing line is because the drift line is different from the race line. your brain has a hard time envisioning the drift line if there is a race line infront of your face.
Great video but I disagree that the story should have explained things more explicitly. Just the opposite, this is one of the things that make the writing so good.
4:00 my favourite is dual grate swords cus funny swords go spin and also cus you have to think more into what you do and not just spam and run it’s how I learned how to get good at parry and dashs
I have a PS5 and bought an XBOX Series X just to play this gorgeous game as well as game pass. However I was scratching my head after the first few hours unhappy with the random things I was doing. This video is a guiding light. Thank You! You earned a subscriber.
Man, THANK YOU. I half randomly picked up Rise because I was stuck at home sick and saw it on sale. If not for you and a few other YT vids I'd have never picked up the game again! I had no idea what I was getting into! But now I'm more curious than apprehensive, so thank you.
Ever since I learned how to guard point in monster Hunter world, I've actually found playing solo easier than multiplayer. To the point that I no longer bring the cat or the dog when playing rise, just because that means the monster will always attack me and I know it will always attack me so there are no whiffed guard points anymore.
Weird, I have all the bow types, and I'm not that far in the game. I also don't really follow normal routes, and I've been places I definitely should not have been (killed a level 160 zealot while only level 40).
Started yesterday with 2 buddies that are veteran players. FH5 is the most bloated, overloaded experience starting a new game i encountered in any game ever. Thanks for the video, oh boy.
I find it harder than it should be .and that's playing at easier setting yet 5 was just right .even though it took me a couple of hours for around 6 months
Can I counter somehow explosion damage when in a car? In the last couple of days I died at least 5 times while I hit some barrel or explosive thing making me insta dead. It gets pretty annoying. It was not even in combat I was driving to some farm house or scrap yard and accidentaly hit green/yellow barrel and car exploded insta killing me. I wonder if some gear would prevent insta kill - I think it is because the vehicle exploded so the gear with resistance against explosives wont be much help? Only thing came to my mind was to carry the revive supremo...Thanks.
Just bought Monster Hunter Rise on Steam. This will be my first time playing any of the Monster Hunter game so this video will help me greatly. Thank you. 🙂
