I really wanted to give this genre a chance since the games are jam packed full of the things I love about RPGs: progression, damage numbers (!), geeky combat, anime stylings, it'd be hard to ask for more. I was so ready and willing to join the ranks of the co-op hunters that I bought God Eater 1 (Japanese) at some long forgotten point in time. I have zero recollection of purchasing it, so I'll assume it happened after consumption of large quantities of alcohol followed by exploration of the local electronics stores. That game had layers on layers on layers of menus. I played a handful of times afterwards, but unlike a lot of Japanese games where I could still figure everything out despite my shitty Japanese, this game was causing my eyes to glaze over with each new menu layer I'd discovered. Then we got back to town and I was again confronted by all of those damn menus! Those menus, they were seriously killing my buzz about the game. Lesson learned, and our next few ventures into the wild were successes. I was scolded in the most polite Japanese manner possible, then was taught to engage the baddies in a more thoughtful way instead of just running up like a moron. We ran up to monsters and I died often and embarrasingly because I played like I was Leroy Jenkins.


Seriously, the menu systems in Monster Hunter are daunting, moreso when everything is in kanji. The thing is, the actual gameplay is fun. I had a blast those few hours playing co-op. But my main gripe with the game was always the myriad of menus and item lists that just seemed daunting, which was only compounded by the fact that I was navigating everything in my shoddy Japanese ability. I'm not completely heartless though - I still have it.

Kids would gather at McDonalds to play for hours - I've seen groups game for uncomfortably long periods without breaking eye contact with the tiny Vita screen. It was a coup for Nintendo to steal the franchise away from Sony.Ī few years back, my soon-to-be bro in law, who is a fan, did me a solid and bought one of the versions on the PSP for me as a gift We played together for a few hours and that was that. It was never on my radar, even though I saw it played everywhere around me in Tokyo. I've never been a huge fan of the Monster Hunter series.
