Monster Hunter Wilds Ascendance Vows a Tougher Master Rank
Monster Hunter Wilds has a difficulty problem, or at least a slice of its community thinks it does.
Not everyone will agree. Plenty of hunters were happy to carve through the base game's monsters, gather materials, and move on without breaking a sweat. But a vocal group of players felt Wilds rarely pushed them, and it's not hard to see why. The game's focus mode is flexible and powerful, and once you learn to lean on it, a lot of the danger drains out of even the biggest fights. For players who come to Monster Hunter specifically to be flattened by something enormous, that's a real complaint.
