World vs. Rise

Why the fanbase is so divided.

There really ARE two types of MH fans.

"It's Not World" Syndrome, Explained.

If you spend any time in the youtube comments, or on twitter or reddit, or basically anywhere people are having conversations about the Monster Hunter series, you've seen the debate: World is better than Rise. Rise sucks because of reasons. Rise is a step backwards.

And it gets pretty heated. I've been playing the series for well over a decade, and until recently, have never seen such animosity and vitriol within the community, over any preference-based topic. sure, we've had our debates and differences, but in the end, we usually agree that any monster hunter is good monster hunter.

For this one, it's different. There is a significant percentage of the fanbase who just can't stand MH Rise. And they feel the need to tell us about it every chance they get.
