I like RPGs. Final Fantasy, Witcher 3, Fallout 3 and 4, Skyrim, Morrowind, Oblivion, etc.

Will I enjoy Monster Hunter: World? Is it good? Does it have a good story? Or is it (too) fetch-questy?

I’m looking at this one because it’s available with Spanish audio and text whereas other Monster World games only have Spanish text, if that. So the others aren’t an option, but feel free to compare this one to the others.

    It’s CapCom isn’t it? Maybe this is part of their—what might be called an—arcade history. I’ll keep looking for something with more story. Any recommendations?

      I like a lot of similar games as you. I enjoyed both Horizon games, mostly for the main story. I did very little side quests. The Norse arc of God of War also had a pretty good story. Neither of these are RPGs in the traditional sense, but they are similar.

      Many people say FF14 is one of the best, but may take upto a few hundred hours to get good. I’m not there yet.

      The Legends of Heroes series is supposed to be good, but I haven’t gotten into them yet. Same with Mass Effect.

      I also just realized you asked about World, but my comments apply to Rise. My mistake, sorry.

        I’ll give them a try, thanks.

        Is FFXIV online? I played and loved XI (holy shit, it’s still going!) but unfortunately, I cannot trust myself to play MMORPGs. It’s too addictive for me. I’d end up losing my job because I wouldn’t sleep or turn up lol. It’s a shame but it’s the way they’re designed, which makes it hard to just log in for a quick hour.

          14 is online, but it is better about letting you get one for a little bit, accomplish something and giving you a reasonable place to stop.

          However, if you know you can’t trust yourself then it probably isn’t worth it.
