    I always wanted to get into MH. But I can’t commit to an online game. Online game means online snail pace progression. And I just don’t have the patience for that anymore.

      What? Wilds can be played offline. The grind is there but it’s about the same as the other monster hunter games which can also be played offline. The online part of the game just lets you do hunts with other players.

        Is it played in MMORPG style in that it doesn’t have a pause feature? If so then it may as well be played online. If you can’t walk away from the game until you’re in a safe spot, then there’s no functional difference between an MMO and this game except you don’t get randos teabagging your corpse. This is why I stopped playing MH games.

        I played MMOs for years and they’re great in some ways, but I got tired of always having to arrange myself safely before stepping away for a bio break or a snack.
