I don't know why people diasagree but i think this game is worth playing for a long time.
Your character appearance changes whenever ylou equip new items, equipment, ect. You can costumize your character from top to bottom almost. You edit hair, type of skin color, sex, and even voice! The sound in this game is also great. When you first enter outside to where you must fight monsters, the sound really makes you want to play and keep on moving.I usually play offline but online is better. It's fun when you go hunting with your friends. Gameplay is simply amazing. You go out and hunt, kill, and collect your reward that was bestowed on you. You can create your armor and wear it to fight a wyvern . You are able to buy weapons, armor, food, traps, ect.Some of the armors are cool. You can even improve and create your own weapons by requiring bones and skins that your opponents drop. If you want, you can even mine for minerals and extra items. Replayability is to much perhaps. This game always wants you to get stronger to buy better items, in order to kill and destroy your enemies. There is online play which gives the game even more replayability. The monsters in the game are a little difficult and smart, unless you know what your doing. BUT,this game will be better if there's no time limit.For example,I failed to kill a limping Rathalos once in offline mode because i ran out of time.Overall,I like this game.
