i love the vibe. i love the world. i love the characters. i love how it gets pre-World monster hunter charm.

but oh my god the combat and raising are a headache. rock paper scissor where the game screams at you that monsters have patterns but also not really. acquiring eggs and raising monsters to feed genes to other monsters except gene slots, gene types and gene locations are random. i engaged with the game's systems, i truly did but wow. everything is messy.

i powered through because the game gives you a rathalos with 9 open gene slots so i could transform him into a small nuke but other than that this game was nothing short of frustrating.

i am still leaving it as positive because i don't have it in me to leave it as a negative but oh my god this game was frustrating.
