Uh oh, Monster Hunter Wilds isn't messing around anymore—its new high-rank monsters hit hard and often, hopefully putting the difficulty discourse to bed

Zoh Shia, a monster in Monster Hunter Wilds, rears onto its hind legs in a regal, threatening posture.

If you've been listening to the seasoned, grizzled veteran monster hunters gathered around the campfires of social media, they'll tell you that Monster Hunter Wilds is easy. Back in their day, they had to climb up a hill both ways just to have a shot at killing a monster—series newcomers like me have it easy, rabble rabble.

I'm not here to say they were wrong, mind. I didn't cart once during the game's low rank story until the final fight—and I haven't been having too hard of a time in high rank, either (except for Gore Magala, which can go screw itself).
