Excellent RPG combat
Deep customization
Tons of content
Repetitive maps
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


Swap between three weapons to exploit enemy beast weaknesses
Quick Finish'ing a fight that you're overpowered in still nets full rewards
No wasting time trying to gather, just click and pick
Dozens of Monsties to tame and ride
Multiplayer feels limited given the series' pedigree
Rock-Paper-Scissors combat design becomes tedious after dozens of hours
Dungeons are extremely copy-and-paste in design
Gathering feels largely useless beyond honey and donut making materials
Difficulty spikes and a darker story might be challenging for some younger players
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.
No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.


Lots of systems to sink your teeth into
Nice to actually fight WITH the monsters
Occasionally odd graphical behaviour
Party restricted by world navigational needs + plot




Vibrant art style adapts much of the core franchise well
Impressively deep rock-paper-scissors combat scheme
Finding new and rare monster friends is a genuine delight
Enjoyable character and monster variation
Resources, levels, & experience are still a bit of a grind
No direct control over actions in combat outside the main character

No "Pros & Cons" find for this reviewer.




high production values
mechanically extremely dense
compelling battle system
extremely well tutorialized
is equally welcoming to fans and newcomers to JRPGs and Monster Hunter alike
unlocked framerate can lead to the game feeling janky
battles can take really long (though speed up and skip options exist)
