I mean, you do you, but for anyone else reading this who is on the fence, I adore the 1997 original (and am in fact replaying it right now), and I loved Rebirth. Solid 9.75/10 game for me, with the only detractions being constant interruptions by Chadley if you’re doing a 100% run.
The gripes about the story being changed and stuff just don’t hold up to me. The remakes are actually, by and large, very faithful to the original with a ton of fan service. They have some some new stuff with the remakes that I’m personally enjoying, and keeps me on my toes.
If I wanted the exact same story, I’d play the original, which, I am lol.
Monster Hunter Rise. I’ve been a big MH fan since Tri and have hundreds of hours in each one since then, but for whatever reason, when Rise was announced and came out I just wasn’t really excited for them. Partner and I picked it up over winter sale for an all time low thinking, ah at least we won’t be too disappointed at this price. Got just as sucked in as previous MHs and am approaching 100 hours right now, lol.
They did sue the cops.
