What is the project about?

While the story in Monster Hunter Wilds may be clichéd and not the main draw, it's worth noting that the protagonist can now speak. However, the dialogue feels somewhat artificial, akin to being written by AI, and spans six in-game chapters. Players are drawn to the series for its intense, thrilling battles with a variety of unique monsters, not the narrative.

In the game, you play as a protagonist who can be either male or female, tasked with exploring uncharted lands as part of an expedition. The expedition is spurred by the discovery of a child named Nata in the desert, suggesting that these supposedly uninhabited lands hold secrets. Nata is the sole survivor of a tribe attacked by a mysterious creature known as the "White Ghost."

The attempt to infuse drama into the storyline adds a touch of absurdity, especially with the locals' bewilderment at the protagonist's use of weapons. Despite this, the story has become more structured and detailed, though it still doesn't qualify as a fully story-driven game.

One downside is that Wilds often limits player freedom, enforcing a strict script that can feel exhausting by the tenth hour of gameplay. The campaign lasts about 15-20 hours, and for those focused on hunting and exploration, the story might feel more like an obstacle. Fortunately, most dialogues and cutscenes can be skipped, which is a significant advantage for players like me who prefer to focus on the action.

Hunting in Monster Hunter Wilds has been simplified. When you hit a monster, visible wounds appear on its body. By holding the right buttons, you can destroy these wounds, dealing massive damage and causing parts of the monster to drop, which are now automatically collected. This change is a welcome simplification that enhances the gameplay experience.

A new feature is the introduction of rideable pets called Seikret. These pets automatically run at maximum speed toward your hunting target or any point on the map. If you're knocked down, you can call your Seikret to pick you up almost instantly, saving you from lengthy recovery animations and potential devastating blows. This feature has been a lifesaver for me, especially when my HP is low, allowing me to switch weapons and drink potions safely.

Seikret also automatically navigates to your destination, eliminating the need to constantly check the map. Additionally, fast travel to camps is available, making navigation even more convenient.

In Monster Hunter Wilds, monsters don't have visible health bars. Instead, you must read their movements, animations, and sounds to gauge their damage. Your Seikret companion will announce the monster's various states, adding a new layer to the combat experience. Monsters now use the environment more strategically, and some can form packs, requiring you to fight multiple enemies at once. However, you can call for backup from other players or NPCs, making these encounters more manageable and enjoyable.
