Monster Hunter: World - From Fear to Fatalis: My Hunter’s Journey Monster Hunter: World is a very special game to me, it was my first experience with the Monster Hunter series and my introduction to the franchise. I first started playing back in 2018 on PS4 as part of the new 5th Generation of Hunters , completely new to the series. At its core, this game isn’t special in the traditional sense , no standout characters , and no emotionally rich NPCs . But for me, it became a second home , a world filled with countless memories and unforgettable experiences . It's easily one of the best games I’ve ever had the opportunity to play . This game is exactly what its name suggests, you hunt monsters . You study their behaviors , trap them , exploit their weaknesses , and adapt to their strengths in order to take them down. You use various weapons, tools, and strategies to hunt these massive, catastrophic creatures, and it’s an absolute blast, especially with friends. I still remember being terrified of my first Anjanath , running for my life, screaming and here I am about to solo my first Fatalis (a super boss) though I’m pretty sure I’ll fail. But that journey from clueless rookie to seasoned hunter is what makes this game so special. This game has a unique, indescribable charm to it. It constantly pushes you to improve , giving you that butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling every time you hit a wall that seems impossible to overcome, until, suddenly, everything clicks it's pure magic. The "World" Aspect The name Monster Hunter: World couldn’t be more fitting. The environment is absolutely mesmerizing teeming with small critters, towering monsters, and breathtaking landscapes that feel alive. Getting all the achievements in this game led me to discover hidden caves, secret traversal paths, and entire areas I never even knew existed. And even now, I’m certain I’ve only scratched the surface. Every time I play, I learn something new not just about monsters or weapons, but about the world itself. Whether it's a hidden mechanic of a weapon, a subtle environmental detail, or an unexpected monster interaction, this game constantly surprises me. The sheer amount of content showcases the love and dedication of the developers, and it’s incredible to see how much thought went into every detail. One of the most immersive aspects is how monsters interact with their environment. They claim territories, warn you when you get too close, and engage in brutal turf wars when another predator enters their domain. Witnessing these battles unfold feels like watching one of the most cinematic moments in gaming history. I could probably write an entire essay about all the incredible things I’ve experienced in this world. Base Game & Iceborne Expansion The game is split into two parts: - Monster Hunter: World (Base Game) – This was my introduction to the series, and I already liked it. - Iceborne (DLC Expansion) – This is where I fell in love with the game. Iceborne forced me to "Git Gud" Master Rank hunts are no joke, especially post-Iceborne content like Tempered Furious Rajang and Arch-Tempered Velkhana are relentless. No matter how much I improve, I still can’t beat them, but teaming up with random players it is always a chaotic good time. The game is easy to pick up but hard to master . The difficulty spikes can be brutal and abrupt , so take your time, be patient, and adapt you’re a hunter, and finding a way to take down the monster is part of the challenge. This game isn’t for everyone —some might even hate it and never want to touch it again. But give it a shot—who knows? You might end up loving it just as much as I did. I loved this game so much that I bought it a second time on Steam, along with the Iceborne DLC when it went on sale. The DLC is locked behind the main game, so you need to reach a certain point before accessing it, but it’s 100% worth it. It actually provides more content than the base game itself but only buy it after completing the base game. Fatalis boss Fight - Spoiler This fight was really well put together as the final boss of this journey. I have mixed feelings about it, but it’s a battle I’ll never forget. It forced me to engage with aspects of the game I had never fully explored before. At first, I struggled - attempting it multiple times over several days with no success. Eventually, I caved and looked up a guide, something I had never done before in this game. I ended up using a Bowgun strategy to chip away at Fatalis, slowly crafting two pieces of its armour. It was my first time using a Bowgun, and the game even gave me a short tutorial, which was hilarious given the hundreds of hours I had already spent in the game. The sheer amount of preparation and optimization required for this fight was insane smoke bombs, perfect evade timing, baiting its cone flame attacks, wall-banging it at the right moment, and learning how to position myself just right to maximize damage. There were so many micro-adjustments and strategies I picked up along the way. It felt somewhat forced, as I had to play in a very specific way to even stand a chance, but at the same time, I loved the challenge of mastering Fatalis. And the best part? After finally defeating it, the game sends you back to Astera. The familiar music plays, and suddenly, I was taken back to 2018 when I first started this journey. That moment hit me hard I couldn’t stop myself from tearing up. It was such a fitting, emotional conclusion to an incredible game - an experience that made me feel things I haven’t felt in a while. ❌Cons & Performance Issues This game isn’t perfect , and there are some performance issues , but they can be improved: [*] Unoptimized engine causes random performance drops. → Fix: Install the “Performance Booster and Plugin Extender” mod from NexusMods. → Achievements are unaffected by mods, so completionists don’t need to worry. [*] Turn off Volumetric Fog if you’re experiencing performance issues. Final Thoughts This isn’t a game for everyone, some people will bounce off the difficulty or the grind. But if it clicks, it might become something deeply personal , like it did for me. I even bought it a second time on Steam, with Iceborne, and I have zero regrets. I’m planning to buy Monster Hunter: Wilds when it launches. I played the open beta, and it was already a blast. I might update this review if I manage to beat Fatalis, get 100% achievements, and finally wrap up this game .
