The bright side of poor tutorialization is that it's a temporary hurdle. Once you get your bearings, Monster Hunter Wilds is a delight, bringing Monster Hunter World's carefully crafted gameplay loop to the next level. The monsters are foreboding, the weapons are sharp, and the lower difficulty level means newcomers can start without getting bogged down by the details. The Forbidden Lands are an enticing new playground for the series, and I look forward to spending dozens more hours uncovering the rest of its secrets.
