The Kemono are creatures based on real-world animals that are much larger and also induced with elemental power. The game is clearly designed to be played with others, however, and when you team up with either two other friends or with randoms, the combination of abilities and attacks, paired with the highly different weapon types, makes for a unique battle each time you take on any of the Kemono. If you want to play Wild Hearts as a solo player, you'll find the experience closer to that of a 'Soulslike' with an action-combat system relying on you pacing the fights, knowing when to heal, attack and retreat. The fights can last upwards of an hour, especially if you play a lot by yourself, as I have been, but they are never tiresome thanks to the thrill of the fight and the chase of unlocking the next piece of gear. You hunt (sometimes) giant monsters called Kemono and pick up other materials in the wild in order to upgrade your gear to take on the bigger monsters. The basic premise and loop here are similar to Monster Hunter games. Even if there are more than a few technical issues to mention, this is the first Monster Hunter alternative with a legitimate place alongside the champion of this genre. The hook of this monster hunter has dug deep within me.
I've spent hours playing the game into the early hours of the morning and more thinking about hunting the creatures and what items I need to build my next weapon upgrade or armour set.
