Wild Hearts vs. Monster Hunter – All similarities and differences
gamepur.comSince its release, Wild Hearts has hit the perfect monster-hunting itch for many players. However, one thing that people have noticed is all its similarities with the other monster-hunting colossus, the titular Monster Hunter series itself. Let’s take a deeper look into both games and see just how similar– and how different– Wild Hearts and Monster Hunter can be.
All similarities between Wild Hearts and Monster Hunter Craft and cook yourselfA huge part of both Wild Hearts and Monster Hunter is the ability to create weapons, tools, and cook food buffs to help you out during your hunts. Now, the way these two games go about this is very different, but nonetheless, effective crafting can make or break your hunting plans in either game.
Hunting gameplayThere’s a reason why many people, at first glance, can sometimes mistake Wild Hearts for Monster Hunter or vice-versa. The games have very similar UI systems and the gameplay of fighting a Kemono vs. a monster can be very similar. Whether you’re sneaking up on an Icetusk or a Great Jagras, you sneak through the brush before darting around the map to dodge attacks and get in hits of your own. So, if you’ve played a Monster Hunter game before, Wild Hearts should be easy to pick up.
