Okay here's the deal. The best way that I can describe this game is like going out with a new girl. You're not quite sure if you're falling in love with her, if she's slowly driving you nuts, or a bit of both.

The game has a lot going for it. It is insanely addictive. I played it for over eight hours yesterday. It is extremely well made and there is a lot to it. There are many different items and several you can combine to make more powerful one's. It's going to take a long time to figure out exactly what does what and exactly how it all works. The way the game is set up, you always feel like you are working toward something whether it be new armor, a weapon upgrade, or whatever. As db8rman said, MHT guides you along slowly and to be honest it's better for it, and you won't feel overwhelmed. Also, the environments and monsters are really good looking. You can definitely tell that a lot of work went into this game. The combat is extremely fun as well.

The only problem that I can see (the potential insanity and anger that might arise from it), is that I'm not quite sure yet if there is going to be enough variety to the game. Keep in mind I am just saying this after one day of gameplay. Hunting monsters in order to get upgrades and get more powerful is definitley fun, but I'm not sure whether or not I want to do a couple of hundred of hours of it.

MHT is a lot like the start of a relationship with a pretty girl that you like a lot. She looks good, is nice and the potential is there for you to fall in love with her, but like all relationships, there is the doubt that this might not work out in the long run. Basically what I'm saying is that this is going to either be one of my favorite games or I'm going to wind up hating it after I realize that it's gotten old after a hundred hours and that I wasted that much time. So in conclusion, I'm not sure if I want to get married or if I'm going to get cold feet. The sex is great now though.

So am I safe?

You just compared it to a hot girl. I happen to love hot girls, and I know Mr Bond is a sucker for the ladies so I'll assume I'm safe for now.

You are safe for now, but if things eventually go badly for me and MHT things could get ugly.

For all of you that are playing this game, what controller are you using and why? I have yet to start and would like to hear a few opinions.

I am using the Classic Controller Pro.

It's not that the Wii Remote and Nunchuck wouldn't work, but your wrist would be trashed if you tried to play this game for extended periods of time that way.

Don't worry about your English.  It's much better than my French.

Also, welcome to the site.

it's also better English than most English native internet users.

Got the game. Though I'm moving into my graveyard shifts so I won't really be playing until Monday morning PST. Inspite of my own concerns, advice I still got it. I'm terrible.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

@gog85
Yup. And that's sad...

i just bought it, but i'm waiting for the free shipping from amazon so it'll be a while. Amazon has a great deal though, i got a $10 amazon credit when i bought the game and it is $47 instead of $50. I'll be looking for some people to play with next week =)



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

anecdotal evidence from France : the game is sold out in the three retailers near my house.
I won't be able to put my hands on it until next tuesday at minimum ...
