I'm beginning to think that some MH players just hate all NPCs

[Glimmer]

I've seen a complaint for just about every single NPC with a talking role in the game.

At this point, I'm starting to believe that some people just hate whenever any NPC merely exists, and want their OC to be the only character in the entire game :\

Yes, it certainly looks like that.

This time the game has incredible awesome NPCs, and above all I think Alma is the best handler we can have. A handler who is also a companion? Perfect!

A lot of posts on steam are bait and troll posts. I enjoy all the NPCs, but Nata is a bit under that bar of enjoyment. He gets a little better, but he makes some weird choices for sure.

My favorite is Gemma. Always there for us with armor/weapon upgrades. Such a reliable smith.

No just the ones that are not FUN / COOL / INTERESTING, which in MHW ist pretty much every single one.

My first impression of her is of an older Minayle

She sure has a very cool onee-san vibe

Most of its rage bait. If you have played previous monster hunter you've endured worse characters.

Don't get me wrong I wish Nata could get snatched off his seikret by a rathalos.

Nata is just a kid.
It is hard to relate why people would dislike him for his childish line of thoughts.

Small treat, look at the back of her jacket... we've seen Gemma when she was small.

honestly if the whole game was just fight monster, eat, prep, fight next monster it would be a much better game. having to sit though an explanation as to why you are killing monsters is a massive drag on my monsters kill quota- and don't get my started on the capture missions. im here to kill monsters and wear their skin as a hat not catch and release!

Everyone but Rove is nothing to me.

[Slamminslug]

real, Rove is best lad.

Kids in games/shows are always ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying, and 90% of media would be better off without them even included as characters.

MHW is no different. Nata is an absolute ♥♥♥♥♥ from start to finish. Alexander levels of "punt him out the airlock".

Also, let's be honest, nobody plays these games for the story. Big drawn out story sections are totally unwanted by most. Nobody really wants this, especially in a franchise with porno tier character writing. Stop making my porn about the plot >>:((

I think the best vibes these games have had was Tri. Where you're little more than cavemen bonking dinosaurs in a prehistoric landscape amidst a backdrop of a long dead civilization nobody knows anything about. Kind of ruins it when you get a whole bunch of exposition vomited at you about said civilization.

All of the npc's in his game are decent, and make sense.

The ONLY Npc that doesn't belong is Nata. Seriously, if they removed him from the entire game, it would have progressed in the same way, or they could have found a way to make things the same.

I only now started to enjoy the game in High Rank missions, because Nata was no longer present, and not following me around like a lost puppy.

Whenever the story goes from just "god awful" to something remotely Interesting, the character Nata, goes off on a tangent that makes no sense, and just starts to cry for seemingly no reason, turning what little of a story the game has to offer, into something incredibly Cringe-Worthy. If Nata just shut-up once in a while instead of trying to make the story, or story-related plots point directly to him for no reason, there wouldn't be much problem.

All the other npc's make sense, and belong. Hunters, Researchers, Smithies, Traders, etc, etc. Nata is a child, who even at the end of the game when the story forces it to turn towards him, STILL does absolutely nothing, and the only person that does end up doing something is the Hunter (the player).

You're stuck dragging a little kid around, which contributes NOTHING to the story. Erik the other teams "handler" was supposed to be the person who gets into trouble like the Handler from Monster Hunter World, however, it only happens like two times in the entire game, so he's actually not incredibly annoying.

Monster Hunter games have never been known for their stories and for the most part has always been corny. But my god, maybe next time they should maybe do a little research on what people actually find enjoyable about stories. I for one can tell you, it's not dragging a useless kid around who cries, given any opportuned time.
