Gonna add my full review later. Right now, I just want to offset all the negative reviews.
Because like... yeah, the game might have optimization issues. Did you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ update your GPU drivers though? DID YOU?
God.
Yeah, could be this is unoptimized. But seriously.
This game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amazing. It's so so much fun. The best Monster Hunter game I have played yet.

Difficulty. Great. Graphics. Dear god, woah. Controls? Man, they finally made it.
Why are people rating this low? Either they haven't tried to fight the graphics issues (don't blame them. But honestly, have you at least tried?)
It's easy. Sure. I mean. You have played World, right? The first dozen monsters aren't really a challenge. The game is easy. Dude. Think about it. The game is designed for beginners. You are complaining the start of the game is too easy for new hunters? Why are you here.
Performance is bad, graphics are washed out, monsters are tedious. I hear you. I don't agree. Move along. You have all the rights to think that way. I love the game, and I really, really want so see more. Goodbye, see you in the future.

Man, I love Monster Hunter.

The girls are kinda cute.

But seriously, this game is great. So much time you can spend in there, and it really gets hooked into the well-known "okay, just one more game" loop.
Also, how did Kay manage to balance it so well? It's crazy.

This one really hurts.

Also, the art style is amazing. Like... really amazing.

Yes, this game can be difficult at the beginning, and I totally get that some game mechanics are frustrating and can look quite un-fun.

But most complaints about "unbalanced" characters can be countered by learning the game mechanics and how you can counter the specific characters.

Do in-fight assassinations need some kind of fixing? Yes, I think so.
Are they a big issue on higher levels? No, not really that much.
Assassinations are high commitment, and if you play as a team and work together, you can be quite safe.
One-shot attacks are annoying for many, I get that. But every other character has one-shots as well.
Assassinations have very few good counters, which is why I think they need some fixing. But whether they really are a big issue for you, you have to decide for yourself.

Besides that, this game is really fun, and very promising. I am looking forward to the new game modes and maps that will come.

Because of this game I have started to eat my food on a table. I am already feeling much happier. Thanks, Rimworld!

I like games with a good and captivating story. This game has a good story.
I like games with beautiful graphics and a good art style. This game has that.

The voice actors did a great job bringing those characters alive. The story is sometimes a bit strange, like it doesn't really know where to go and what game this should be, but overall really solid.
The gameplay is neither amazing nor annoying, it works for me. It is fun at times, other times just keeps the tension high to enjoy the story better. Rarely it happened that I was annoyed by it. Especially when I had to do the same scenes over and over, listening to the same dialog over and over, because I did not grasp what I had to do, or just failed to do it. I don't fault the game for this, it was me being dumb, but it ripped me out of the flow and the story, which is sad for a story like this.

I am not good at writing reviews I think, but I can fully recommend this game. This is no triple-A title, and this game has a few weak points, but overall it is an amazing experience and a great story that everyone should play. And can play. This game is quite easy. Not "playable movie"-easy, but everyone who has done a 3D game can manage.

I found this game because of recommendations as "one of the most emotional games out there". It under-delivered a bit for me, maybe because of my really high hopes because of it, but the story was in no way bad. And yes, you will feel with the characters, the good and the bad.
I didn't cry, but I was sad.

Well done, Asobo Studio. Haven't heard from you before, but I will keep my eyes open now.
This game gets 8/10 from me.

Random addition:
I freaking love the accent the voice actor of Amicia has put into this game. It melted my heart.
Oh, and her hair is amazing.

2vs2 Brawl. One user named "TWITCHusername". My buddy looked up his stream while watching me play.
I am pretty newbie, haven't played in Closed Beta, but seemed to manage fine.

So I killed that streamer guy, and beheaded him. Heard the stream from my buddy in the background, he took it quite well. Next round, killed my opponent fast, sprinted to the other duel. streamer guy won his 1vs1, I attacked and killed him with a few blows. Beheaded him again. Now he was not amused.
Last round. Streamer guy in front of me. Guarded, started a chain, killed him. Choice of execution... you know what I chose.

10/10 would behead streamer guy again.
