Why is SunBreak Mixed Reviews?

[Lao Shan Lung]

I want to get it, it's $40 but the reviews are mixed whats up with that?

[gremlin]

read the reviews...

Some are upset at the anomaly endgame grind, others upset at the game's monetization and pushing of DLC's, and some just think the game was underwhelming in terms of updates and base content.
But I personally wouldn't listen to reviews when it comes to deciding whether or not you want the game. It's an individual experience. I personally loved it myself.

b/c they are noobs, the content sunbreak has in itself is worth the expansion upgrade.

[AllergicToBrainRot]

Don't listen to the dumb reviewers. I'm sure you saw something about save breaking bug and yet i never encounter having my saves get deleted. I don't believe theres even a save bug. Unless you are using mods. Then backup your saves first. Other then that- great DLC and it's getting more content later on. Which is amazing. It's fun and challenging. Way more grind, no bs forced rampages. No one likes rampages.

If you read the reviews you can tell without any effort that the complaints are rather... special. Things you mostly cannot come up with, even if you think about it long enough.

Its a dumb trend that Capcom has been pushing lately with monhun; releasing a half-♥♥♥♥♥♥ game and then an expansion that actually completes the game. I liked World and Rise, but the [GAME] and then [GAME EXPANSION] is already getting old.

play the demo or watch a gameplay video instead of reading stupid reviews

it is what capcom is doing literally since mh3 or even longer
you always got base game and a year later ultimate, while they use now some fancy names like iceborne or sunbreak

It's a whole lot of patches that have put it there, ranging from launch technical problems, to being too light on monsters at launch (something that Title Updates have rectified), to micro transactions over the course of updates, ridiculously stretched out anomaly grind and so on..

If you're not bothered by the mtx and wanna enjoy the game for just the content of monsters, or if the game doesn't crash or crap out on you (I heard this can still happen by some freak chance to a few people) ?
It's definitely worth the price then, you're probably going to be playing this more than most other games out there and not be anywhere close to finished doing everything that can possibly be done, there's a ridiculous amount of things to do in SB, arguably to some even way too much..

For example, I've taken a break from the Anomaly grind until the final TU, because I was just burning out with how slow it is past level 150, so you shouldn't be worried at all about running out of things to do, even at max level you're still going to likely be doing a lot of Qurio crafting, for better or for worse.

hey u can easily buy sunbreak for under 20€ and its worth that amount

[TacoFox]

I'm eyeballing Monster Hunter Rise DLC basic for 22 bucks and deluxe for 27 bucks...The DLC is easily worth 22 bucks. I'm not telling you where to get it, thats on you.

Except there was a separation between them. If you wanted MH3U, MH4U, GENXX, all you had to do was purchase one of those games and you'd have the entire game. There is no separation between World/Iceborne and Rise/Sunbreak. You are FORCED to buy both versions, and it is more expensive.

the title updates compared to world were very disappointing it feels like capcom is putting more effort into those paid cosmetic dlcs than the title updates itself, in TU4 on icb we already had like epic entries like safijiva and alatreon and here we are still waiting for the big "woah" entry like some are hyping amatsu to be, as for the negative reviews I dont get it, sunbreak pretty much fixed all the major issues rise had and its a good expansion and runs well, IMO its must have expansion if you liked rise so just get it already, iceborne deserved every negative review it got for making the performance of the game worse by having some sort of anticheat and whatever ♥♥♥♥ they added with it, for adding ♥♥♥♥ like clutch claw and making the huntflow worse and also for breaking some ppl saves at release.

Iceborne also has mixed reviews, but IMO, it's one of the most praised MH game (because of Fatalis, I think).

This doesn't have all the praised like Iceborne but still worth it.

[Oni-Lyrics]

Its really lame in terms of variety. The smallest base roster of any previous DLC and the "monsters" they added post launch were just recolours and one really bad port.

[Corey]

If you want to play Rise in any capacity, Sunbreak is the best content in the game by far. If you ask any of the people who bought Sunbreak, even those who had negative feelings on it, they would still likely recommend you buy it if you liked Rise.

Iceborne and Sunbreak both have mixed reviews, but asking anyone who plays either World or Rise and they will full on recommend you buy the expansions.
