Isn't there a bit of the village that acts like a lobby? I thought I saw that. It is a bit impersonal with join requests, but I don't mind that because I'm a shy sort |

| Oh there are still lobbies but my point was most will just use the join request option (it is the easy route tbf) to farm out the monsters they need & I think a bit of the community aspect these games had has been lost because of that. Anyhow, it's probably just me looking at it with nostalgia glasses on but I miss either talking utter nonsense with folk I likely won't ever see again or taking a sneak peek at what mixed sets other people had come up with and then getting my own ideas because of it. |

One of the recent quests had me killing Popos.

| I think I've sunk a total of about 6 hours into this so far. Not because I'm not enjoying it (although I'm not as passionate about it as the MH Bad Boyz) but because I have to concentrate to learn what I'm doing and feel like I'm playing it 'right' that I find it quite a hard game to play in the evening after I've finished work. I played a couple of hours this afternoon and it was more engrossing and straightforward because I hadn't been focusing on a screen for 8 hours of the day already, but I feel like there are still a million and one facets to it that I haven't gotten my head around. I've killed a few Great Izuchis now and I managed to ride two of them and wang them into walls, so I feel like I'm getting somewhere. |

| I figured out how to make Pitfall Traps and it felt like a massive step forward, when actually it’s a simple operation. It’s one of those games where the sheer amount of stuff to do is overwhelming, even if the actual things you do are fairly simple |

I just don't like dwelling on the negatives for too long that's all. --- And with that said can I just say it really is great seeing all the newcomers to the series thoughts on this, it reminds of the times I had in my first MH game where I took things slowly and even had to use youtube tutorials to help me along. ![Smile](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif) Also we should do some general GNamer multiplayer hunts soon. |

| I'd be up for some hunts soon.
I'm surprised as what I've heard the single player isn't that long, not to see last game finished thoughts, I know it's a game that be playing for ages especially with multiplayer was just more curious of a final review.
Then again I know in almost 9 months time can see plenty of write-ups in the year-end vote. |

This is pretty much exactly where I'm at with this. I have to force myself to play it in the weekday evenings, and then I have to play something else to feel like I've actually relaxed. I feel like I am getting to grips with it now (or with one weapon of it now), but it's still quite tiring to play. This is also a contributing factor as to why I haven't done an online hunt yet: I really want to, but the best time for me would be Friday evenings and see above but multiply it by a week. Is it worth the slog to get any of the massive great items back to base? |

Those are really more of an introduction to the game for your addicts so I think you'll still be waiting a while until somebody writes up a review. |

| Ahh, I have just seen reviews mention how the game "ends" and seen that one of the updates will continue it on.
Guess like I said on here somewhere and how I play games that I do the story, will be the same for me when I get to Outriders for instance.
I get though you want to do all hunts, do the multiplayer ones, different gear and weapons etc

| So is the current single-player ending really abrupt then? I'm making such leisurely progress through the game as is that I'm not sure I'll have it in me for an extension. I must admit I was planning to finish the single-player content and call it a day, but it sounds like I might feel a bit like the plug's been yanked from under me. |

| I'm sure it will wrap up the main current mystery, but Kamura will still be a village in the Monster Hunter World, with a hunter who has to hunt monsters. Then there will be more monsters and more game.
I haven't said much in this thread because I'm already doing a podcast and talking to friends at work about it and generally always thinking about Monster Hunter but fuck me this is a very good videogame. |

| Yeah, how I see it if I'm done single player then I'll comeback when chameleon thing update then the next one after that which seems to have story content and so on which hopefully brings an iceborne like expansion.

| It'd be very bizarre if they didn't have a G rank/master rank expansion but that's likely a year or more away (typically 18 months) & as you mentioned we have the monster title updates before then which looks like it'll be adding 2 to 3 monsters this time around. - Balla wrote:

I wouldn't say it's abrupt at all just an ending of a chapter that sets up the next one which in your case would be the high rank hub quests. |

| I had a lot of time off when Rise came out, so I went ahead and finished the multiplayer stuff on my own. I don't think any of the other Mashers have yet.
While there is some single player only stuff, the multiplayer stuff can all be done solo because the monsters scale to the player count. Irrespective of story, some of the game's best monsters live in the hub that's playable in multiplayer. To me, the multiplayer accessible stuff is just where some of the serious beasties live, as well as the odd one that feels like a better hunt in multiplayer.
To each to their own, but I think you should both give some multiplayer hunts a chance before calling it a day. I know our resident expert Jas is keen to pass on his knowledge. |

| Oh I did actually finish off the final hub quest on Sunday night purely because I could see it was the only thing I needed for upgrading some of my gear. I can't wait until the other mashers see it. |

The single player village content definitely has an ending, but there's still mysteries to unravel and new beasties to fight which is in the Gathering Hub content - which I'd argue is the most viable solo that it's ever been - so there's still more to do for sure. That part ends with a definite tease at more to come, which isn't something I've seen in a MH game before this one. Still, I don't mind that so much as it gives me some drive towards tackling the post-launch updates to see even more of the story, which isn't something I really got into in MHW. |

| It was this trailer which teases new ending https://youtu.be/sD6eLsO0SJQ
In a future update, I only brought it up originally about story as was the only negative I was seeing in reviews and most games that would be a big negative but not so much in something like Monster Hunter. |

| What do you lot think of the music in this game? I kind of like the catchy village tunes, and I really like the themes for each new monster. I don't find the songs stick in my head the way, say, New Horizons' music did. I'm not playing it as often as I did AC though. |

| I bloody love the tunes in this! I will admit, I haven't had quite as many of them get lodged in my head even compared to some previous Monster Hunters, but there have been a few. Overall, I like how it feeds into the overall Japanese vibe.
Oh, I finished this game with the lads the other night by the way. I had to kill an Apex Arzuros in the story, so . . . 0/10 |
