    I am not into anime at all, nor am I into the anime/anime-like games. They just don’t do it for me. However, monster hunter is well worth a go, and both World and Rise are very much westernised in terms of gameplay.

    That being said, the monster hunter games are not known for being easy (although I’d say Rise is the easiest to get into, as well as in terms of difficulty). They’re pretty much the original Souls games and share more similarities with those than any God of War title. All about rewarding boss battles where you visibly weaken the monsters as the fight goes on. The monsters are hard hitting, requiring well timed dodges, and the gameplay loop is addictive.

    The MH games are known for being slow starters but I’d urge you to stick it out. You’ll eventually get to a wall (almost insurmountable monster) but once you learn how to adapt and overcome it, there’s a good chance you’ll be hooked.

    They’re one of the few games where it’s more your skill that improves, as opposed to your character just levelling up and the game becoming easy.

    That said, if you want an in-depth story, you’re unlikely to find one since they’re hardly the focus.
