Dauntless vs. Monster Hunter: Which Is Better?

It's hard not to see the simialrites between Dauntless and Monster Hunter: World, but which game does it better than the other? Let's compare.

[BLUEKNIFE]

Monster Hunter is far better and more polished. But still I am having a blast with Dauntless

[naruga]

Dauntless is a bad, cheapy made, westernized , almost blasphymous copy of Monster Hunter ...the fact that is given for fee doesnt justifies it ...also they try to "Forthnite- ize" the Monster hunter perfect gameplay and visuals in order to gain fans ...i dont even touch the thing

[Movefasta1993]

facts lmao it's such a blatant rip off it should be a crime ,like relax.

[Edito]

Monster Hunter is amazing but the menus system for me is a mess...

[Old McGroin]

Uh, is this a real question?

[Shikoku]

Considering everytime I've tried to log into Dauntless on my PS4 the servers have been full, don't know how that happens, I'd have to say Monster hunter I've never had a problem logging into it

[harmny]

Well the MHW launch on PC was one of the worst launches I've seen. Almost comparable with diablo 3.

[Shikoku]

Well I don't care about PC so what's your point? It launched just fine on my PS4 and never had a problem haven't been able to launch dauntless once in the last 4 days because IM 100000 in line

[AspiringProGenji]

Lies. I have been playing since launch on PC with little issues

[Movefasta1993]

lies lmao speak for yourself

[meep316]

Pc is my fav platform to play it on, no other way to hit a locked 60 and even with a 1070 I had to turn some stuff down.

[Shikoku]

@meep

No one really cares dude. I don't like 60fps anyway looks like fast-forward.

[AspiringProGenji]

The game average around 50 - 55 FPS woth GTX 1080z turn off the volumetric rendering and it will boost yhe FPS. It is an useless feature and the game even looks better without it

[Razmiran]

"60 fps looks like fast forward"
That one is going to the book of clown phrases

[SinisterKieran]

no problems with monster hunter PC on my end too.

[meep316]

@Shikoku the game is unlocked on consoles, so you get 40-60 on the high end systems and something more unstable on the base systems. Don't believe me, then go check out digital foundry videos.

[rdgneoz3]

First several days of trying to log in, I kept getting 3+ hour queues. Was able to play a bit the past two days. Decent game for free to play, but MH is miles ahead. Dauntless has a small area with 1 monster, while MH has larger areas with multiple running around that you can take on right off the bat and you can explore without having needing to do a mission. Dauntless is fun and has a nice MP lobby (which is laggy as hell at times on PS4), but it doesn't have the depth of a MH game.

[Shikoku]

Wouldn't know can't get in the game.

[Nacho_Z]

Monster Hunter is described as a triple A behemoth but from my time with it so far it feels like a remastered PS2 game. Ropey graphics and terrible voice acting and animations to go with them. I know a AAA when I see it and that ain't one.

[Teflon02]

Well, that's probably because the series hasn't changed all that much since the first game on PS2/PSP etc

[meep316]

It’s one of the most impressive games graphically. Most games don’t come anywhere near it’s geometry. I hope most customers aren’t like you, I don’t want flat uninteresting worlds with nice character models.

[Wolffenblitz]

So.. you're obviously not playing Monster Hunter World then and probably one of the previous games.

[Nacho_Z]

No it is World. Disappointing so far given the hype.

[ECHOINFINITY]

You obviously don't know AAA

[Shinkus]

Monster hunter world is incredible, literally don't understand where your criticism of any of these categories comes from. The graphics aren't top tier but they are still above average for the console, and don't try to tell me that the average game this gen looks like remastered ps2. The voice acting I have set to Japanese and have no problem with it, started off with English and even that was fine. As for the animations...??? I don't even get your complaint, there's nothing wrong with them. If you had a more valid reasoning I'd love to know it. I feel like you've never actually played the game.

[Daeloki]

Are you playing it on a 20 y/o screen or something? Or maybe you're eyes are just broken

[Nacho_Z]

The monsters look good but nothing else does really and the spotty voice acting drags it down. It got off to a bad start when I couldn't invert Y and had to slog through the intro like that. I'll give it another go after I've finished Uncharted 4, now that's what a AAA looks like.

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

You can’t be serious with this question.

[theshredded]

You can easily tell by the image, why is this even a question?

[AK91]

Monster Hunter

[Mfm]

I play it with my 11 yr old kid. Its awesome for that. But thats about it. Ther is no comparison to MHW

[bluefox755]

Really?

[Segata]

Was this question asked 5 years ago of Evolve vs MH? Guess which one is still around.

[TheColbertinator]

Monster Hunter easily

[pietro1212]

Monster Hunter World easily

[reaper602]

MH

[PhantomS42]

Monster Hunter, it's playable. I can actually play it without being forced to make an Epic account or the endless server problems. Dauntless is garbage.

[jznrpg]

It doesn’t even need to be asked

[BklynBadBoy0069]

Both games has his ups and downs Dauntless feels more open than Monster Hunter world but I hate the fact that the main city in MSW is Soo small and you can not see other people running around plus most of the gear is Ugly

[slavish0]

monster hunter is better but it's online setup sucks. Both are good. I hope dauntless in time has more content because I hate how online is setup on MHW so much

[Daeloki]

Okay I know it's an opinion piece... but damn that's a stupid question...

[Zjet]

Monster Hunter, as it has an offline mode.

[PurpHerbison]

"The one thing that Monster Hunter has over Dauntless in regards to online multiplayer is the multiplayer area that lets you eat, arm wrestle, and talk amongst your comrades before you start online missions."

I really wish MHW would expand this to the whole town instead of just the top area.

[PapaBop]

One has those cat chefs, the other doesn't, that's enough for me.

[BlahBlahWhatever]

There is a phrase we say in Greece that fit perfectly in this case "Μη συγκρίνεις τη βούρτσα με τη πούτσα." search it if you wanna know what it means :P

[Mystogan]

I like the fact that dauntless has Crossplay including PS4. But in terms of overall game quality there is just no contest.

[TheHan]

Monster hunter is great but Lost planet is epic. I know it’s about Monster hunter and Dauntless but Dauntless just doesn’t appeal to me much
