Monster Hunter Freedom: Third Edition in the Series

Posted on Jan 30, 2009 09:39:40 PM

Monster Hunter Freedom is the third in the Monster Hunter series. It was developed and published by the Capcom productions. It is a role-playing game and the gameplay is all about completing quests, collecting upgrades and climbing the ranking ladder. The more the number of upgrades the players collects the more is the strength of his characters. All the characters battle it out to prove themselves as the best in the world. The story starts with the character talking to the village head. The players have to buy weapons and other upgrades from the shops in the village. Only after all these process the quest begins.

There are two categories in the ‘Quest in Freedom’ of which the first one is the hunting quest. In the hunting quest, the players have to look for beasts in the countryside and hunt them down. The entire process Monster Hunter: Freedom is thrilling and the players have a lot of beasts to hunt. Different strategies are involved in killing the beasts and the greatest quests of the players are finding these strategies. The players should be equipped with the armors and weapons needed to bring down the beasts. The trap for the animals must be well laid and executed. These features spicy up the game and increase the fun factor encircling it. Some of the strategies are complex to execute and some simple. The complex plots may take some half an hour from you but may fail to give the desired result. The second quest is the gathering quest, where the players have to collect certain items and bring them back to them.

If you are tired of all the hunting and gathering you can go back to the village and do some farming. This is an interesting feature and cures your boredom. You can also try other mini-games like mining, fishing, etc to keep yourself occupied. There are some cats that you can hire to cook some delicious dishes for you. You can increase your power depending on the meals they cooked. Some cats even provide information about the outside world which is very helpful. The most wonderful feature about this game is the multiplayer mode where as many as four players can play. Enjoy playing Monster Hunter Freedom.

    Omg Ive never seen such a shitty review…how long do ya have played MHF? 5 Minutes? First of all there are no damn Quests which are longer than 50 Minutes…what da fuck are ya talkin ´bout “half an hour”?!
    Next Point is that you do not…NOT get stronger if you have Many weapons!
    This is so…stupid sorry…and the Mining, Fishing etc are damn not Minigames, it is collecting Materials for new Armors and weapons

    It is one thing do dislike Monster Hunter but it is an Other to write such a childisch review it is like a restaurant Review with following terms: “Yeah the restaureant sells Pizza and Pasta, there are waiters and there are both colors of wine, at the end you must pay”

    This is truly a terrible review of the game and makes little to no sense. Half of what you’ve said in your review is a jumbled pile of useless words strewn together in what, apparently you feel makes a full sentence.

    Anyone looking for some ACTUAL information on this title should do themselves a favor and just google it.

    i think you missed the whole point.

    the most important thing in this game is that there is no way for skipping steps. (in other words you must start with your crappy armor and crappy weapon and work hard to upgrade them or create new ones with the mats you farm. at no point in this game will you ever be able to get an overpowered weapon or armor compared to your level)

    another very important thing is that levels here are not assigned based on how many exp you get from a kill (like any other RPG), but wether you manage to complete all the quests of a certain difficulty or not.

    one could argue that this is a commercial strategy in order to make the game life longer, but in truth this slow approach to the top is made in order for the gamer to study the enemies, their mechanics, how they react to certain elements, how they move from zone to zone and many other things that will be extremely important if you’ll ever manage to get to the G-Quest difficulty.

    The game difficulty is rated with stars (one star= easy five stars=much harder) and has three different difficulty levels:

    _ village elder quests (the first ones you’ll confront yourself with)

    _ guild quests (you will be able to take some at the beginning but at a certain point you won’t be able to continue either because you equipment must be improved with the mats from hard elder quests or because you will need to improve your hunter rank)

    _G-Class guild quests: these are the hardest ones and you won’t be able to see this option untill you have cleared all the elder quests and guild quests.

    only guild quests and G-Class quests can be played in multiplayer, though it requires that the other players are close by and have the hunter rank high enough to join your quest.

    all the items you will find have different levels ranging from 1 to 7. you will only be able to trade items with a level of maximum 3.
    this is made in order to avoid people skipping the steps and getting overpowered items compared to their level.
    Weapons and armors cannot be traded.

    as for the farming zone in the village, you forgot to mention that you could improve it in order to increase your output and the quality of items found.
    the are indeed two mini games but they are so short you could hardly call them mini games… one is to hit with a hammer a tree at the right moment and the other is to cast a net while your target keep moving…

    in the end, you could consider this game a major timesink, but the good feature is that you have fun while you “waste” your time playing at it.
    Soloing the group quests provides a nice challenge that will keep your interest for this game alive.

    Kars 400+ hours gameplay time, Hunter Rank 5 (all soloed) and still got a long way to go ^___^

    Francis, in no place of the review did I find any mention of quests lasting more than 50 minutes. The ‘half an hour’ just means 30 minutes, which is how long it might take some players to complete the more difficult quests. I really don’t think it meant that there were quests lasting an hour.

    I didn’t think it was a very good review, though. It probably was written by someone who didn’t have English as their first language, which might account for some of the mistakes. However, if English is their first language, it offers them no excuse, and does expose them as not having played it, at least not for very long.

    But then, I’ve seen so many reviews of this game that just prove the reviewer just sat down and played for an hour or so before writing.

    It’s pretty obvious that Kars is the author of the ‘review’, which is such a stupid piece of literature that no further comment is deserved.

    I fail to understand the link between me posting that long description and being supposingly the author of that review… (which i am not of course…)
    had i been the author i would have directly modified the review instead of posting in the comments and making such an indirect approach… this isn’t a printed book, it’s a website, and as such can be changed as many times as you require it to.

    What i did was simply to add my point of view on what are the main points in this game. That’s what comments are made for…
