This game surprised me in a way that most games don't anymore. The story was fantastic, the gameplay sometimes leaves a little to be desired in the way of crafting and loadouts but on a base level the combat mechanics were pretty amazing. I'm a big Monster Hunter fan and it reminds me a lot of that game in a more casual story setting. I went in with low hopes and came out the other side dumbfounded by the story, the visuals, the combat and the exploration. I've since done every side quest, every collectible and im going for new game+ Ultra Hard now. I would wholeheartedly recommend everybody to play this game, and I cant wait for the sequels.
