What is the project about?

The storyline of Monster Hunter Wilds might not be its strongest suit—often described as clichéd and somewhat unengaging. Players typically aren't drawn to the series for its narrative, which here primarily serves as a tutorial. However, the protagonist now has the ability to speak, albeit with dialogues that seem AI-generated, spanning across six in-game chapters.

The core attraction lies in the intense and thrilling battles against a diverse array of unique monsters. In the game, you play as a protagonist who can be either male or female, embarking on an expedition to explore uncharted lands. The catalyst for this journey is a child named Nata, discovered in the desert, suggesting that these supposedly uninhabited lands hold more secrets than previously thought.

Nata is the sole survivor of a tribe devastated by a mysterious creature known as the "White Ghost." The attempt to weave this into a dramatic narrative can seem absurd, especially given the local inhabitants' astonishment at the protagonist's use of weapons, despite their own lack of technological advancement.

While the story has become more structured and detailed, offering a richer world-building experience, it still doesn't qualify as a fully story-driven game. Additionally, the game often restricts player freedom, adhering to a strict script that can feel monotonous by the tenth hour of play.

Completing the campaign takes approximately 15-20 hours, and for those focused on hunting, the story may feel more like an impediment than an incentive. Thankfully, most dialogues and cutscenes can be skipped, which is a significant advantage for those who prefer to focus on the action.

Hunting mechanics in Monster Hunter Wilds have been streamlined. Hitting a monster now causes visible wounds, which, when targeted correctly, can be destroyed for substantial damage, automatically collecting monster parts—a feature that deserves commendation for its convenience. New rideable pets, called Seikret, enhance mobility by automatically navigating to your hunting targets or any map point at maximum speed. If knocked down, Seikret can quickly revive you, saving you from lengthy recovery animations and potentially fatal attacks. This simplification adds a strategic layer to the gameplay without compromising its challenge.

Seikret's automatic navigation to your destination eliminates the need to constantly check the map, improving the overall gameplay experience. Fast travel to camps is also available, making navigation even smoother.

Monsters in Wilds don't have visible health bars, requiring players to interpret their movements, animations, and sounds to gauge their condition. Your companion will vocalize the monster's state, adding a new layer of interaction. Monsters now utilize the environment more strategically, such as hiding in crevices or climbing ledges, and some can form packs, leading to multi-enemy encounters. In such scenarios, you can call for backup from other players or NPCs, making solo hunts more manageable and enjoyable.
