Monster Hunter Rise Single Player Review - Is Single Player Fun?

[@oofcall9115]

7:21 One thing I will recommend to new players (if anyone reads this) is that one of the most helpful things that helped me get through both this game and World (but it was more important to me then as it was my first MH game) is online tutorials. There are tons of guides, tips and tricks, along with other things that make it 10x easier to learn, understand, and use all of these mechanics.

[@chevyimp5857]

Thanks

[@legxion3640]

Basically have to take a course on ur own to learn about the game in depth. Yep thats what i did with gw2 took me around 3-5 months to get used to gw2

[@workinprogress5431]

Man, THANK YOU. I half randomly picked up Rise because I was stuck at home sick and saw it on sale. If not for you and a few other YT vids I'd have never picked up the game again! I had no idea what I was getting into! But now I'm more curious than apprehensive, so thank you.

[@SuperLarrythompson]

I'm a solo player, I play games to escape reality not be reminded of why I dislike co-op or pvp gaming(cough* toxic 12 year olds *cough). So, I love reviews that shed some light on games that may be aimed at multiplayer but could potentially be played solo.

[@Celexanomnom]

Agreed. I used to love co-op and pvp but WoW ruined that for me. Played it for years and it just got worse and worse until I just said the hell with it.

[@ReadGameCraftCook]

@@Celexanomnom I’m little late with this response but I find it interesting how so many people attribute toxicity in gaming with wow 😂. I feel the same myself.

[@tresfordays9644]

Rise is a single and multiplayer game, but the “hub” is the multiplayer quest counter, but it the health and damage of the monsters scales to how many people are in the hunt, and it changes dynamically depending if people join the quest late or not, but that means you can play this game completely solo if you want

[@TheYuryPaiva]

Same here. I stop destiny because some missions force me to play with another ppl.

[@EnchantedSmellyWolf]

You must be terrible cooperation with friends outside. But if not, then I understand if you need a total disconnection from outside after a long day.

[@grayexperience]

THIS was the perfect review for me of this game! In-depth single player coverage: ✅ Single player vs multiplayer: ✅ Honesty and game weakness workarounds: ✅ Grinding mechanics and pacing: ✅ You earned a like and a sub!

[@QuestMode]

Awesome! I’m glad I could help 👍

[@roy4173]

Loved this review. I started the game understanding that the hub quests were of similar difficulty to solo monsters of previous monster hunter titles. So I started this game playing the first few single player quests, then immediately moved on to hub quests and finished both hub and solo side by side, both as a single player. So in my experience, hub quests felt normal length and single player quests felt too short. I think this game provides a challenge to those who want it.

[@Damien_Paxton]

As a single player offline I enjoyed this greatly. Worth the sub.

[@rafaelmarrero6760]

This is an amazing type of review. As someone who struggles to convince friends to branch out to other games, this really pumped me up to play MH. Thank you 💜

[@JexeonTV]

You had me at … “hell yes” 😂 subbed 👍🏽

[@bobfrendt]

Ok, I'm only about a minute in, but I've been so distracted laughing at "my dude" and "home slice" I've literally not heard anything you've said. Time to start the video over. 😆

[@QuestMode]

I can’t take credit for “My dude.” I saw someone post on Twitter that said if you name your character My Dude, your games will seem 10x more chill. He wasn’t wrong.

[@lucidragon5260]

Solo is fun in Rise, but I also love the multiplayer. If you want to grind, you can join quests like mentioned in the video. If you just want to hang out a bit and take on random queats, you can join a lobby. Some of my favorite moments in Rise were from joining random lobbies. It is very rewarding to go against a Teostra multiple times with the same group of people beforee you finally take it down. Or at the end of the quest everyone does a weapon pose together. I highly recommend everyone try out lobbies. If you feel a little self concious about your abilities, create a lobby asking for help, or saying taking it easy.

[@peterfairchild258]

This game transport's me back to my childhood day's. That feeling of being alone,and one with nature. Catching bugs and lizard's walking deep into the forest and letting you're imagination run wild. This game captives that long Lost feeling ♥️

[@TheWindows72306]

You can try Outward, it's much more unforgiving though, the gameplay is a bit short but it is very unique in its own way, I ditched the game multiple times until a steam sale came up. The game is awesome, looking at people playing doesnt do it justice at all, thats the reason I ditched it multiple times before. But only get it on sale, because I dont think the original price is worth it. The replay ability is quite good. Be reminded, if you want to play coop in this game, only the host progressed in story quests maps or such.

[@soulfulfool]

Terrific review, love that you focus on single player.

[@everfreemagus4871]

Been playing Monster Hunter Rise solo on PC and it is nice to hear that there are others that do the same.

[@andrewweber3286]

I love the idea of a series just about soloing multiplayer games! I vastly prefer single player, especially now that we have a baby coming an multiplayer just won’t even be an option anymore. Final Fantasy 14 is great and mostly single player friendly. There is mandatory group content scattered throughout the main story but most of the game can be played solo. Even most of that group content will soon become optional and you’ll be able to complete it with AI companions instead

[@ttgNiqqa]

why does a baby equal no more multiplayer?

[@NiSE_Rafter]

@@ttgNiqqa I'm assuming hard to get a sesh together with the boys, easier to hop on for a brief moment here and there. Gotta be able to suddenly get up to go take care of kid.

[@yugorisfriwan]

great review, I loved Monster Hunter World, and my "hunting buddies" also do too, so playing with friends aspect was always something i considered, then rise comes out, and my friends didnt want to jump the wagon, since it was more expensive than World when world came out on PC, and they thought the asking price was just not worth it for it being a switch port, so im in a pinch where i would actually buy the game in an instant if my hunting buddies also did too, but im just so tempted to get it to just play solo, and i found this review, it made me change my mind that maybe i dont have to worry about the multiplayer aspect after all

[@Zenniel64]

I haven't go online not even once. And I've played over 400h and I love it. I'm aiming for 2000h solo play now that sunbreak is out. I recommend using all 14 weapons to keep the game fresh for TONS of hours

[@marchfifth1754]

You have amazing content, you deserve so much more views.

[@QuestMode]

Thank you very much 🙏

[@lunarbound9975]

YES PLEASE GIVE THE SOLO PLAYER PERSPECTIVE VIDEOS!!!!!! Yeah, I’m seeing this is a year-old video, but I would be glue to every episode. Edit: and if you did lean into that video series, you didn’t make a playlist. For shame. I would’ve watched every single one like a podcast series.

[@zero_2296]

just noticed you said there are only limited walls you can climb on, but actually you can run on any wall, if you keep pressing the run button while wall running, you can keep running on it as long as you have stamina

[@GMoney_1973]

Great video and appreciate all the information

[@lunarbound9975]

Ok, for real. I need this content. “Solo, but could it be fun?” I went to the channel hub, and you have not made a playlist of this subject. Ffffuu I hope you do. Thanks for this one, at the very least.

[@dash-o3976]

I know this is a 2 y old video, but , I've been playing MH since the first one, and playing alone ( ya I have no friends and don't want help on games ), and I think it's funny playing solo, grinding and finding some bugs and ways to play. So I recommend playing solo, but, if you have friends play with them.

[@fraktux]

Watching this again... I miss Quest Mode videos 😢

[@신-r2r]

Village quests where supposed to be like a tutorial or a nerfed version of the monsters, not a solo experience. Hub quests are something more typical you would expect on a monster hunter game, but It's still balanced to play alone. Having people on multiplayer only makes some stats scale on the monster. I find it really weird that people think that monster hunter is a multiplayer focused game, it simply has that feature but no hunts are designed only to be played in a group.

[@aazirxd7490]

this is true and this video is misleading. Hub quest monsters only scales up when theres an additional player on the quest. So when playing against solo hubquest monsters, its still nowhere near as the hps of the multiplayer monsters. Theres also only a little bit of content for the village quests, afterwards the rest and most of the content is on the hubquests.

[@lordjunk5847]

Beat this game 3 times solo because it reminds me of MH2FU and MH4U. I’m glad I learned all the mechanics of the game before I looked up anything online. Also I play on Xbox series X and am glad the loading screens don’t take forever anymore!

[@adambeard8241]

This review os fantastically helpful, even just those questions at the end give me enough motivation to buy it. I played 4 ultimate a while back, this will be my return to the series

[@NiSE_Rafter]

I've played hundreds of hours of world solo and almost 200 solo on rise. I play both solo and multi, enjoying both both mostly solo since coordinating with friends has gotten difficult these days since we all work full time with different shifts.

[@sharpdad33]

What game do you prefer?

[@NiSE_Rafter]

@@sharpdad33 Personally, I prefer World/Iceborne. There's an appeal to Rise too but it's a bit too fast and flashy for my taste. I like mastering simplicity and there's too much to learn about every weapon in Rise for me to play them all anywhere near their potential. In terms of quality as a video game they're both up there, imo which is better just depends on someone's taste.

[@sensaiko]

I am one of the people that avoid multiplayer (kinda anxious of fucking up), but i highly encourage anyone to try MH MP, The video put it well, is not at all intrusive and a never had any negative experience, even when things go bad. Trust me, in hundreds of hours of it i saw someone using the chat just once

[@YaoiFan22]

Whether fun or not, I already bought it and never played a Monster Hunter game before. It seems really interesting.

[@ashjose7973]

Exactly the review i needed, i like single player and thanks to this review i bought a copy of monster hunter

[@BlondeMcGuinn]

As a player of MH3U, MHW-IB and MHR:S, I actually would recommend new players to hunt solo. In Rise you have to advance the story a lot of the time through hub quests. Hub quests have monsters with much bigger HP pools (lol you actually discuss this at 04:18). Multiplayer hub quests makes the HP bloat even worse, and MP quests may take you longer than solo because of the quality of your teammates.

[@mysocalledmixchannel]

What a great video! Thanks for that, covered everything I wanted to know about Rise.

[@ignskeletons]

Subbed, fantastic video from QuestMode on Hunter Rise and the offline aspects of the game. very well made video and explanation

[@McD5791]

Though it has been said many times already in the comments, I too would like to express my thanks for this review. One of the things that frustrate me is when certain other reviewers prioritise multiplayer experiences in videogames, which can make it hard for a solo player to decide whether to purchase a game or not. The game may have a solo campaign / story mode, but if the review is all about multiplayer, or if the game only really works as a multiplayer, then that's a red flag for me. Then there's also the controls. Even though there's a demo for MH: Rise and I've tried it, I've found it hard to wrap my head around all of the controls available in the game. I could probably 'hack and slash' my way to a degree, but if I want to 'get guud' then I need more practice... and I only got a few more attempts of the demo left. Your video has basically sold me that, if I stick with it I can learn to like this game (and other similar games such as MH Generations, or God Eater 3). I'll wait for a deep sale, but next time that comes around, I'll probably give it a shot.

[@Shuttermemory]

Here's your chance. 5/31

[@victormedina4559]

Very detailed and amazing review. I already have been playing the game but was nice to see your take on the game. It was the first video I watched from you but an easy sub from me.

[@tomd96]

I bought this game recently after watching the review and have put about 50 hours into it, and just started on the Sunbreak DLC. After playing solo throughout most of the game (aside from a couple urgent quests that were played online with strangers), I can say it's definitely got a learning curve. For instance, the game has 3 difficulties, Low Rank (the one you start out with), High Rank (unlocked after 4* hub completion) and Master Rank with the Sunbreak DLC after 7* hub completion. Online guides are sort of missing bits and pieces, trying to navigate the weapon trees means going to higher ranks and defeating the higher tier monsters to unlock new options. Also, gear gets quickly outdated in all 3 difficulties, at Master Rank, my rathalos high rank armour had way less armour than a Great Izuchi in Master Rank, one of the first monsters you might fight. You basically restart the game at those points (aside from having to craft lower tier weapons to upgrade to high tiers). I'd definitely recommend playing with friends, the first 20-30 hours are probably spent just catching up to the point where veterans who have been playing for years are at.

[@oofcall9115]

14:43 you don't have to use the long sword. You're able to change your weapon from the get-go at your item box.

[@oofcall9115]

But the hunting horn is not very useful unless you plan on spending most of your time in multiplayer, as one of the main uses of hunting horn is to buff teammates

[@TheDeathby2]

​@@oofcall9115XD

[@akumaisreal2090]

The one thing missing from this video was armor and decoration skills. Those are vitally important to consider when considering what armor to craft, plus there's a separate crafting list for armor if you just like the look of a particular set.

[@noctisarcanus7894]

These kind of games are perfectly good for solo playing. I remember playing Toukiden Kiwami on the PS Vita solo and 100% offline without any problems. I enjoyed it a lot and farmed the hell out of it 😂. I'm now playing MHR and although I'm playing it with my wife now, the game is the same as toukiden and completely doable in solo. In fact, sometimes I play alone for hours just because it's so much fun.

[@twitchster77]

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts!

[@chasegaetze4507]

The village quests must have changed since mh world, in world soon as you engaged in the fight you could summon help. Then the hp of the fight would increase, I think the hardest thing about multi player on these games is you get used to how the monster attacks you as an individual, but with a party you are uncertain if the attack is going for you, or for the other player making your reaction harder. Another thing with multi-player is say you need a horn break. Well that part is going to be a lot harder to break and if not everyone is focusing on that part, it can be difficult for that break. Take for instance daora horns, if the complete party wasn't focused on those horns, you were never going to get a horn break I do think certain weapons need a better tutorial. In particular the ammo types of heavy and light bowgun. Charge blade could be more helpful on what phials and stuff are and the switch axe to what the benefits of axe vs sword are

[@sebastienv5557]

[@tbatrics]

I've held off moving forward on this game because I didn't want to do "group" quests. I just came back tonight and decided to hunt the high rank solo. I struggled with Tigrex, but pulled it out.

[@jeffhernandez7594]

This was helpful, thanks

[@Roxlimn]

The Hub quests are tougher because they're tougher quests by design. As mentioned by Idrees25, the HP scale with number of players so tackling them solo is not a problem. In fact, most serious MH players only farm solo, going into group hunts more for fun than for efficiency.

[@vietnguyen5739]

Thank you for your video. I enjoyed it very much. Super helpful!!

[@tahaelhour690]

Monster hunter fights are still mostly focused on being face to face, especially with rise counter heavy combat which lends itself to a really fun solo experience. Same for mh world but that one had sieges and raids you needed multiplayer for. You still can have a lot of fun in multiplayer even tho it kind of makes a few fights cake walks.

[@RandomestRandomer]

I like playing with friends but i dont have any so im forced to play solo, I did all of the village quests and felt like i never missed out, although now im going to high rank whivh is hub quest exclusive, I feel like i might miss out so i might have to end at village quests 😢

[@cookeecutkk]

Like you, MHR was both my first game in the series and the first game I’ve ever spent any significant amount of time in multiplayer. I made a point of avoiding multiplayer in games due to the usually toxic atmosphere and constant banter. MHR has been a revelation in this aspect. Because of both the streamlined communication and the quality of the community itself, I’ve now spent over 150 hrs in multiplayer, filled with nothing but totally positive experiences. Like you mentioned, I could just as well be playing with a bunch of very polite AIs. It’s a really great game, very confidently realized, that rewards any effort you put into it.

[@MuurarinEno]

i play this game on both online and offline if i want to increase my skill and get used to monster move set then i go solo, which help to prevent embarrassment to get carted on multiplayer if i just want to have fun then i go to multiplayer, things like paralyze and KO has more value on multiplayer

[@jjayala]

Just started playing this. Switch backlog lol. I went in hoping for only single player grind and just got done 3 hrs of multi-player and had a great time.

[@michaelstuart7678]

If you thought exploring on this game was fun then you should try monster hunter world. I feel like world has very fun maps to explore for a single player and with catching endemic life it is even more engaging than rise. I also feel like world caters to single players more because it has more of the story quests throughout and has phenomenal pacing. It definitely is more fun for a single player since I got through both it and iceborne but the slog of rises hub quests make it to where I can't even get past the first story before sunbreak.

[@crimsonclover1588]

This is good to know because I have no one to play with for now and at the same time I want to play this game.

[@lewist379]

Thanks so much for your honesty! I'd been thinking the same things! After what you've said I've come to the conclusion this wont be my type of game as I'm very much not into steep learning curves and having to learn a plethora of different moves Save me a bit! :)

[@stevesexton2076]

As a seasoned MH player I just wanted to say well done on this video. MH is NOT for everyone. It is hard to master and requires hundreds of hours to do so. You’ve explained everything the game has to offer quite eloquently. While I too prefer gaming as a solo endeavour, MH is the exception for me. My personal style is to solo a quest first, then replay it with others to grind for monster parts. Completing a quest is definitely faster with others. 30+ mins solo, 10-15 mins as a team. Happy hunting!

[@ahmadbugshan9603]

bro if you loved rise environment you saw nothing compared to world that games environment is like nothing iv ever seen in a video game the ecology is so freaking detailed i love it also imo world has deeper combat rise has more variety and for me depth>variety i think you will like it but yeah its way harder to get into than rise for most people

[@felipeemanuel5790]

Great idea, single player focus review.

[@Daniel_Coffman]

I always did wonder, myself, what games in series like Monster Hunter, Toukiden, God Eater, and the like were good for those who don't want to play with others or those who can't play with others. I wish there was some kind of ranking system for these kinds of games that are very multiplayer-focused, for how fun they are to play solo. I never have anyone to play with, myself, nor the time to be able to go through a game where I can't pause, but I've always been interested in trying them out. I hate grinding for who knows how long just to be able to upgrade my stuff, though.

[@Andy-qf1kc]

Mostly played monster hunter solo, been playing since tri and played all the psp versions. Games were all fun solo. It's about earning your gear and the combat is fun.

[@USSJ2Otaku3084]

I play those games solo and they're fun

[@mathewhaight]

Ever since I learned how to guard point in monster Hunter world, I've actually found playing solo easier than multiplayer. To the point that I no longer bring the cat or the dog when playing rise, just because that means the monster will always attack me and I know it will always attack me so there are no whiffed guard points anymore.

[@YoshiroPoh]

for me, I am quite an casual mh player so mhw difficulty rise was what I love the most and what allowed me to complete the game... iceborne however totally break me in terms of how the jump in each "level" makes it horrendous and barely completed the "story" game.... so i am curious on how it is in rise..

[@Darmanitan555]

I like MH solo but I get really lonely playing it by myself so I can’t do too much solo at a time

[@cpicard6561]

Nice, i was wondering what you thought about this game since i saw your tweet. I've played pretty much every Monster Hunter title solo and i think Rise is the better single player experience. Hunts are fast and the grinding is less demanding compared to previous titles, which encourages experimenting with different weapon types. When i get bored of hunting, there's a photo mode that lets me go all 'pokemon snap' and fill up the monster index with photos. Great review by the way👍 i hope you come back for Sunbreak !

[@TS-uu4hp]

I play just about all of them solo until I get to unlocked HRs. I like having the option to team up while also enjoying the challenge of MH solo.

[@zack4660]

If you are looking to get into MH series I’d recommend trying MW World first. It is imo much more new player friendly, there’s a much more in-depth story, there are several beautiful environments, the monsters scale amazingly in terms of difficulty. MH Rise is also good but imo is slightly a downgrade in many aspects from World.

[@Roxlimn]

You could also get both as MHW is pretty cheap these days. MHR Village is a lot more forgiving for newbies.

[@henry9606]

So as I've just failed a hub quest on my own twice...they are not supposed to be played single player? Or you can but it's targeted and tailored for 2+ players?

[@DankPlankSam]

Been eyeing this up since it was released on the switch. So I love a multiplayer game but sometimes just want to go at it by myself. Then find myself bored as there's no interaction with other players so I'm glad this can cater for both as and when I want to solo or play online. Going to download the demo tomorrow and see how I get on and probably buy it if I like the demo 👌🏻

[@84coti]

I played the hell out of monster hunter world. I played with friends most of the time, but after learning the monsters moves and patterns you can kill any minster solo. The gameplay can be hard at first, but you really feel like a complete badass when you master every mechanic of the game

[@Armored_RC]

You have to play hub to get to the high rank sets and is 100% necessary

[@muskatju]

[@muskatju]

so is different quest when u accept on the girl in front of main gate and hub? wow i play throught HR 4 just play HUB quest hahaha

[@Capostrophy]

Running rampages solo is slow and painful. After the tutorial, run the few required rampages online, you'll save yourself a bunch of headaches.

[@izumichan31]

Oddly enough I've found rampages easier solo than co-op. I've yet to fail a rampage solo but multiplayer half the time was a mess.

[@altairscauldron9776]

playing multiplayer for Hub Quest is to speedup the hunt, but for enjoying the hunt, it's better to solo unless playing Event Quests which is more harder lol

[@ShootyBazooky]

I find that playing MP really slows down the game - maybe because a lot of players just button mash and don't know all of the little ins and outs of doing the maximum amount of damage. If you have experienced players with you, then hunts are crazy short and sometimes monsters don't even have a chance to attack. You just never know what you're going to get with random players.

[@Crimsonyte21]

[@chrisworkhunter3876]

this channel is too good

[@farmpunk_dan]

I played most of the game solo and only started using multiplayer in high-rank 6* quests. Honestly it feels to me like the monster battle mechanics were engineered specifically for online play. When fighting a monster alone, the monster is only focused on YOU and if you’re using a less agile weapon, it can be really frustrating as some monsters simply move too fast to land hits consistently. Even one other player allows you the opportunity to land some solid hits while the monster focuses on the other player. Rise was my first monster hunter game so I didn’t even consider this through my solo playtime but now that I’ve tried multiplayer I find going at it alone really frustrating. It’s a game designed for multiplayer - plain and simple. Btw I’m a hunting horn main.

[@ShockG007]

I'm new to Monster Hunter after all these years knowing about never played it. So this will be my first time. Question? Does it matter which Monster Hunter I start with? I'm willing to start with Rise

[@toooooooooooooooool]

Rise is a great introduction to the series, having much more refined QoL changes compared to previous entries.

[@Michael-pj8mm]

Just wait till you unlock following quests there fun you get to bring AI with you and the more you bring them the better they become better it's sooo fun I love it once you unlock rise the hole game gets so much more content it's insane

[@fernandofaria2872]

Haven't played Rise yet, but even though i loved World and have almost 500 hours on it (all solo)... Fatalis and Alatreon are a nightmare for solo players, i think.

[@--GOAT]

Just started my 10th...TENTH... playthrough of MHR. Yea it's fun. End gets better in Sunbreak cuz of the companions.

[@Dagothur_88]

i have play solo in most of case and for me solo are more fun because is quicker than multi and you learn better your weapon and monster pattern, lower mission like low/high rank and master rank in multi are fun but in anomaly investigation solo with follower are so much better for quick grind! (solo 80%/multi 20%)

[@netbanditz2223]

can I pause the game if I am playing solo?
