What do you think of Monster Hunter World (and other games)
7 years ago
So, Monster Hunter World is out. Over the years that series has been steadily gaining a following, to the point where it seems like people are going bananas for it. I've not played one aside the demos available on 3DS and the like, but I'm told they don't give a good idea of what the game is about. However, I also swore off buying games my friends are buying, because 9 times out of 10 they get bored and won't play it a few days after release.
So, how is the PC port? Any performance issues I should know about? Is it best played on a controller or mouse and keyboard?
At £50 download only, if I buy it and it's bad, I'm going to be annoyed.
Somewhat related, I heard of a game called Fallen Earth. It's a Left 4 Dead 2 clone with some new features (aim down sights, buildable barricades, and 3D printers). The video I saw of it likened it to an unofficial Left 4 Dead 3, albeit with a few flaws.
The Raid: World War 2, the follow up to Payday 2 that flopped, has more or less been abandoned. It's cheap though, and because there's no paid DLC, I'm thinking of getting it when it drops below £10 since I'm fine with the idea of Payday 2: World War 2 edition.
Finally, there's Strange Brigade. A game due out at the end of the month. The premise is that it's third person Left 4 Dead esc co-op with a pulp adventure theme. Or more specifically, it's Sniper Elite without the sniping. From the trailers it seems utterly mediocre, and their DLC raises an eyebrow (being shown to be mostly complete before release) which is a shame because I like the theme they're going for. I want to get this game and give it a try.
So if anyone is interested in those games, or has any opinions on those games, let me know.
