Okay so monster hunter is so fun but I think I just figured out why I like it so much? So I used to be a wildlife bio major and had dreams of being a researcher working in conservation out in the field or a park ranger doing community outreach specifically to teach kids about the natural world. Unfortunately I had to drop out due to health issues and then a chronic pain disorder hit and basically there's no way I'd be able to physically handle either job. All this to say, I love animals and I love learning about the natural world. So when presented with a game like MHWorld where conservation and preservation are the forefront of the story's focus I was so glad! And the designs of the monsters are FANTASTIC, which helps. I always captured instead of slaying in World and the game rewards you with higher drop rates for doing so. It's just so cool! Here is a game series with a title like Monster Hunter, but really it's about more than hunting. I dunno. Felt like monster posting.
