Why is the story so awful?

[Bonebreaker]

First off, i do like this game and its fun and all. But the story is a pain to watch and feels awefull and forced and for some reason some of the characters feel a bit woke and the ever whyining kid is just a pain in the a... Why is it so hard for the devs to make a decent story that is fun to watch and all. Most of the time i just skip all cutscenes, they should have better spend the money elsewhere than on overpriced woke cutscenes.

There's a story? I just press ESC every cutscene. Less talking, more hunting.

Imo better then world, that being said, All asian games are kinda soupe opera-ish, thats the style. And in this type of game, story is just tutorial for you too get out of LR and start hunting

World had a better story.

Because whoever wrote it has zero talent.

The deeper into the story you go, the worse it gets so brace yourself.

ChatGPT would've produced better dialogue. If this is the best the industry can do, bring on AI in 'art'.

Because Nata is from "that redolent country" and is ANNOYING AF xD most MH Wild characters are ugly, boring, annoying or useless.

World and Rise had better story and characters design.

What about the story was "wokke"?

The story was nothing amazing pretty common if youve known similiar story lines but it was pretty fun and lighthearted.

My guess they had a bunch of female writers and I mean that sincerely. None stop crying cringe nonse, waaaah waaaah weapons bad no hurt people. Cry Cry Cry, Jesus Christ can we join the monsters.

World was Exploration, Adventure, Sweety men with a point, you go explore instead of whatever the hell this is.

LMAO i just enter the forum to say the same thing. I just almost rage quit at the scene when the kid pretended to solo rey dau like a mother ducker morron. I will just skip all scene from go one.

That not true, the story in world purpose was to pat you on the back and go hunt. It was 110% perfect for what this game in and its function.

Yup, no strong male characters in the story line. Only weak a$$ dudes that can't do sh*t and the annoying AF Nata.

Problem is there is still the follow me slowly crap that you can't skip. I don't recall seeing this in world or rise.

Same. Usually not a cutscene skipper, but this was too much.

I honestly think the story is so pointless in these types of games.
Never heard anyone say before, they play MH for the story so Capcom focussing on this aspect is beyond me.
Also what's super annoying is how the story basically tells you at several points to interact with said person, only to throw you into fights completely unprepared right after a cutscene.
I really hate this!
