Far Cry 4 vs Monster Hunter
Far Cry 4
Far Cry 4 casts you into the role of Ajay Ghale, a person who travelled to the remote mountainous region of Kyrat to fulfill his mother's dying wish only to find himself trapped in a civil war between the rebels and the dictator that ruled the region with an iron fist, Pagan Min. Featuring the same epic open world and the freedom to literally do whatever you like, Far Cry 4 has a whole lot more deadly beings aside from humans with guns; the place is teeming with a wide variety of dangerous wildlife that will put your hunting skills to the test. The game also provides you with a whole new set of weapons and vehicles, including the ability to ride an elephant into battle. Far Cry 4 even has a co-op aspect where you can grab a friend to explore the beautiful region and kill Pagan's people along with you.However, the game only has an automatic save (and no checkpoint saves) that severely limits the supposedly sandbox aspect of the game and well, the game has unskippable cutscenes, which frankly can get rather annoying in your second playthrough. Despite its downsides though, Far Cry 4 feels a lot more realistic than most open world games mainly because of the abundant of wildlife that is supposed to be present in a remote region like Kyrat. If you've enjoyed most of the Far Cry games so far, you'll definitely love this one.
Monster Hunter
Monster Hunter is the very first of a successful monster-hunting RPG that sees you venturing out into a fantastical world filled with massive monsters and creatures to slay. There are plenty of quests in this game ranging from protecting a town from invading monsters or collecting quest items for an NPC. As you level up, you'll gain access to far more destructive weapons and skills, all of which can be further upgraded. Best yet you can play this game in single-player or cooperatively (online multiplayer) with up to three other friends.Monster Hunter turns the usual "kill x monsters" that you frequently encounter in MMORPGs into a truly challenging task, giving you the sort of elation that comes when you've successfully (and possibly barely) slain a boss and apply it to every battle encounter in this game.
