So many hours sunk into this game, so much time farming and doing guided lands BS all just so I can kill a castle melting dragon and prove im not a poser. Proof of a Hero starts playing and he does his final cone attack, I just know I'm right there and finally when I killed him it felt like all of my experiences as a hunter re-entered my mind for that final hit. It didn't even feel real at first but once I heard the commander's voice cheering in awe of my accomplishment I realized just how great every moment I held within this game truly was. Every random helping me farm, my friends who came along here and there to make my journey just a tiny bit easier (3 hunters are better than one). All of it for me to stubbornly attempt to solo Fatalis without his gear, no mods to show me health bars nothing, just pure raw charge blade, yes CHARGE BLADE on fatalis, i'm not a masochist I swear. Once that final swing connected and every emotion went through me I finally fully understood what makes these games so great. Its a metaphorical mountain you have to climb where the higher you go the less air there is to breathe, but once you make it to the top, when it finally hits you that you're no longer looking up but down, nothing but tears at least in my case flows down my face as the smile on my mouth rises. I love you monster hunter world, you're probably one of the most beautiful, well designed games I've ever played and this isn't even a review anymore nor did it really start as one, its a thank you note to a game I now will forever cherish very near and dear in my heart.
