Review title of Unknown 5 STARS... 4 1/2... Great game small gripe

*New to monster hunter and am 40ish years old.. reviewed as such. LOVE: 14 DIFFERENT weapon classes, each with branching tiers of upgrades. I cant stress enough how much freedom and choice you have in wepons and armour.. even ones like the lance for the older folks like me that lack the coordination to use the quicker weapons.... ( I use the lance... a trailrider told me its the 14th most popular LOL ) - Feels like an equally vast amount of freedom in choosing what you feel like doing at any given time; Quest to further the story, or short outings to just explore, hunt, gather - I can customize the look of my character AND my cat!!! - Challenging, fun and intense fights Only major serious dislike is the way you have to repeatedly grind a monster for a material that really should NOT have a drop rate of less than 100%.. just logged over 400 hrs play between the 2 toons i made and still really enjoying this game. (2 because i wanted 2 different cats lol)
