Dauntless VS Monster Hunter World - Which should you play? - Review

- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- Decided to try something a bit different by reviewing 2 similar games at once as opposed to doing them separately. I know I left some small things out here and there, but the point of this video was give undecided players a overview of both games, to help determine which one would better suit them.
Music used:
Dauntless OST - 100% danger theme.

Since people are still managing to find this video 2 years later I wanted to throw this out there, Dauntless was sold off to a Chinese company that doesn't exactly have the best track record in maintaining games, if you want something free its more than enough to keep you occupied, I would look carefully at the state of the game before deciding to throw money at it. I stopped playing the game mere months after this video. If money isn't an issue Monster Hunter is obviously the better game, I timed my "review" horribly as iceborne wasnt out on PC yet, and I brushed it off as just 'a few more monsters'. The iceborne expansion is absolutely worth it.
You forgot to pin this lmao nobody is seeing this
Even without money being an issue Monster Hunter is a better game! Tf you mean! Dauntless is so goddamn soulless in comparison.
MHW: has Palicos
Dauntless: does not have Palicos
Enough said
NO
They speak the truth.
Always has been... oh wait it doesn't fit.
THATS FAX
Comparing Monster hunter world and Dauntless is exactly like comparing League of legends and Dota 2... Same genre, totally different games.
Exactly the reason I made this video, for someone who doesn't know any better they might just assume that these are two very similar games with different graphic styles. For instance I don't really dabble in MOBAs, so to me Dota and league are the same games with different coats of paint, but I'm sure thats far from the truth
@@leftoverlegend6024 That's how I thought of these games
I like monster hunter more because when you fight you feel it and every action you make has to count
Dont get stun locked and invest in your build buddy
@@magnuspuck-nebendahl5131 How was monster hunter Asian exclusive before world released? I know many players who play/played monster hunter games from the get go on the various hand held systems. I myself have 3 of the Nintendo DS releases of the franchise before world released. Its just that hand held systems aren't nearly as popular in America as they are in Japan & Asia.
Dauntless is like the fortninte version of monster hunter
True

after 300 hours in mhw base game. iceborn was more than worth the $40 i spent. thanks to the qurantine ive already put in another 200 hrs
i cant even play the story with my friend.
@@MMOplayeerr prob outa plus or live
So much content
Yes!!! Omg this game is great for the quarantine because of how long it is
I got mhw 12 days ago and I have over 70 hours in. It's literally addictive.
The only advantage dauntless has over MHW is that it’s more accessible to casual players.
Probably honestly it feels weird
That, and it's far more frequent updates.
MHW is also the easiest Monster Hunter by a landslide.
I started in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and holy shit was it hard, but I enjoyed every second of it.

@Covid 19
Behemoth is easy as shit, and I use CB, the most underpowered weapon in the game.
imagine not getting to the endgame of mhw iceborne and trying to argue about its endgame
xD
Lol
Basically how I think about it is like this:
Dauntless: Boss fights
Monster Hunter World: Hunts
Agree to an extent
Agree 100%
I feel like they're both just boss fights.
@@baghingidingy1232 Not really in Dauntless it feels like you chipping at a health bar in MHW if feels like the damage you do actually means something
Cadet Cortex99 yea that pretty much sums this up. Monster hunter world just feels so much more alive
Dauntless is like a training wheels version of Monster Hunter.
Very easy to get used to and honestly an overall easy game to understand.
Hitting boops is satisfying and makes hunts super easy,
builds in dauntless consist of power hungry damage builds,
And on top of all that the game is a free to play Monster Hunter with live service which is nice.
Monster hunter on the other hand is the big papa of it’s own genre.
Multiple builds consisting of all types of situations,
Amazing DLC that was worth way more than 40$,
10/10 Monsters that have provided such amazing fights and amazing returning monsters too.
And top of all that, Monster Hunter world isn’t even done providing content, literally two more years of on going additions of new monsters, new weapons, armor, layered sets, events, and much more. If anything, Monster Hunter isn’t even a close tie against Dauntless it were being honest.
MHW is so awesome, it makes me wonder how would Capcom raise the bar next time they release a new MH game... MH-VR? Probably gonna soil my self when Rajang pin attacks lol
@@oneproductionman i can feel more savage jho pin then rajang LOL 😆
@@itsmerota8523 or Furious Rajang doing his "die puny human!"-point-blank-laser-to-the-throat after a pin... 🤣
I completely agree with you in all ways and I'm a huge mh fan that started in gen 3 when I had no idea what I was doing. but I'll say that comparing dauntless to monster hunter is really unfair since monster hunter has years of experience since monster hunter is a series of games compared to the one dauntless. And mhw has no problems in finding new monster designs since they can look back at the hundreds of monster designs, take for example namielle who basically has the skeleton of chamelios from a previous game. They don't even have to make new designs since they can add any of the hundreds of monsters into mhw
It’s understandable as to why you would think Dauntless and MHW can’t be compared. Without a doubt Dauntless does have its own form of having fun with the same genre. With that being said, it’s not like you can’t really compare the two, they both have various things that make them unique but that’s why people make debates about which game has better elements and features, but that’s also the reason why it’s such a poor argument because MHW already takes the crown when it comes down to it. Free or not.
Monster Hunter vs Dauntless
Monster Hunter wins hands down always, it's not even a challenge.
It's unfair of course mh would win
Yeah in all fairness, Monster Hunter has much more available playstyles, more content, a shit ton of customization in the fashion and stat department, and (In my opinion) has many features that are similar to Dauntless, only, kinda better. The combat is more enjoyable, the monsters are more diverse and immersive, and a ton of other things that just make Monster Hunter superior. I feel like Dauntless is just Monster Hunter World on easy mode, and from what i can tell, the everything just seems, slower, while also taking aspects of monster hunter, and just having them in there too.
MHW is the easy version of MH series
@@Kiratrax That is true, but it also has the fastest combat, an actual story, more free flowing combos, monsters that don't just sit there waiting to get spanked...
Bro I know how "free" games work on these days it's cool but wait till the micro transactions all over the place, example if you want to hunt this monster you need to pay etc - _-

If you're gonna compare both games while watering down MonHun this way just don't kekzhu
absolutely right. and the comparison he made at the beginning about performance too, well of course monster hunter is gonna be harder to run, has he even acknowledged that realistic graphics are way more intense than fortnite and overwatch like graphics
@@murray6188 never even mentioned the sieges nor the collabs kekzhu
The first bit is right, the second bit absolutely incorrect
And a game being in the same genre doesn't make it a rip off. If you put more thought into your comment than cooking beans, then you would know that dauntless' production started waaaay before mhw. In BOTH games, rewards scale with difficulty.
@@seonascott2437 bruh MonHun been running for 15+ years also called it a clone which it is not a rip off. Do you know clone games is like saying *insert older/first of the genre game here* esque games?
Is a clone of MonHun no matter how you look at it and nothing I said is incorrect dauntless is just microtranssaction easy mode fortnite MonHun clone
I had around 100 hours on dauntless before I got monster hunter world, I did one hunt on monster hunter and uninstalled dauntless, still haven't gone back and now have over 300 hrs on MHW
Agreed I don’t care what anyone says
Monster hunter is just better
Well obviously. One is a hardened developer who has been making the franchise for almost 20 years. The other is more than likely a team of people getting their foot in the door of game development and starting from scratch.
That said, I too haven't really gone back. I peek back at Dauntless every now and then but never stay more than one or two hunts before I switch back to MH.
@@Dude13450 mom can we get monster Hunter no we have monster Hunter at home monster Hunter at home
"While the Lance is slow and tanky"
Yeah okay this man's never used a Lance as god intended. It's the most mobile weapon next to the Insect Glaive and almost as fast as the Dual Blades. The "tanky" aspect is only really there to be used for counters, which just means *more* offense.
@@briarfolly3764 I mean... that just shows me you got no idea how Lance works. The charge is the slowest attack you can do. Sure you move fast after some point, but the actual attack is slow and you only use it for following a limp or when the monster is downed/trapped.
The basic triple poke is among the fastest combos in the entire ass game my man. The only problem with it that I can understand people having is that it's repetitive and too simple, since it's just three stabs and then either a reset or a follow up. All of Lance's attacks are very fast, even the slow ones like charge and counter are relatively fast.
The Lance has problems, but speed is definitely not one of them
And don't even start with "standing around in a single spot just blocking and block-poking." Like yeah, obviously that's a shit fucking playstyle, which is why you don't do it. that's like playing Hunting Horn only to stand at the sideline and play music without ever attacking.
I admit I suck at lance even in mh4 I could never use it correctly
@@briarfolly3764 In terms of attack speed, Lance is one of the fastest in the game. Not Dual Blades fast, but pretty close. It's probably on par with SnS. In terms of mobility, Lance is different, but definitely not slow. It's the hops. You have to master how to hop around with the weapon. When you do, the weapon type is very mobile. The movement isn't as quick as SnS's nearly instant sprint options or Dual Blades' Demon Mode, but the fact that you can block while you're moving means you can move in situations other people can't or shouldn't, so you're generally one of the most mobile weapon options.
Newbies can mistake the lancers being in the monster's face as because of immobility. This is not the case. Indeed, it takes a good deal of mobility to stay in monster's faces because many of them move around so much. Lancers stay in the monster's face because that is how you play the Lance. You go for your target part and you stay in your location whatever the monster does to try to shake you off or throw you off. Slower weapons include the Heavy Bowgun, the Greatsword, the Charge Blade, the Gunlance, and the Switchaxe. It says a lot that something like the Charge Blade or the Switchaxe are decidedly slower than the Lance, since they're not really that slow.
@@briarfolly3764 Here is an idea. Watch any video of a Lance player that has put in a bit more of a handful of hunts into the weapon, cause right now, you are looking really ignorant. Lance is one of the most agile and aggressive weapons in the game, and you saying it is "slow as crap" could not be more wrong.

@@XxFukushimistexX One it's a joke and two I doubt a cod dev would see or care about my comment.
One thing though. If you play dauntless I highly recommend giving monster hunter a try, but i don't believe many MH players will start playing dauntless
Edit: I finally tried dauntless. And in short, I didn't like it. In mh each fight feels like an intense battle with the monster to se who prevails. In dauntless the feel is completely different. The most obvious thing i noticed at the start is how quickly the monster dies. It's not really an intense battle more like farming where you go from one end of the island to the other mindlessly killing 10 monsters and then retreating from the quest. The weapon depth is nowhere to be found. I pretty much mastered each weapon after the 2nd hunt with it and got bored using it. There is also the fact that you can't play the game single player. The usual hunt is like the mhw guiding lands. Basically you drop in and hunt the random monster that spawns, then you change locations and hunt another then go back. But all of this is done with other people. If you couldn't really get the feel of an epic battle between you and the monster because of how the monsters are (they also attack less, and have less variety in attacks) you definitely can't get it when you match with 5 other people every hunt. And you can't go solo no matter what. The most fun I had was when I went for a monster far away from other people, but they would also join soon and ruin the feel. I do enjoy multiplayer but beeing forced into it isn't a good thing. If i were to summarize, dauntless is mh lite. With worse graphics (they really didn't bother me but they are worse) worse monster design from a combat perspective: less variety of attacks, some monsters like to sit still and let you vail on them at some points but maybe that's just beginner monsters (not gonna find out). They die super fast compared to mh. 7 weapons, all of them pretty unique but lacking in depth. And the stupid forced multiplayer. Just why? That is such a bad feature. Well that's it for my lil rant. Have fun :)
i just hate cartoony graphics
I tried it, but didnt like it. The weapons felt weird. I couldnt see any force behind the hammer

imo Capcom is one of the last saving grace's of the gaming industry. all DLC's for the monster hunter franchise have been FREE, with the exception of iceborne add on for world. but I would rather pay £30 for more story, than for a battle pass
well, G rank has always been released as a new game, so if you bought MH4 before MH4U, you'll have to buy a new game. After MH4U releases, there's no reason to get MH4, it's the base game plus G rank. Same with Iceborne, just happens that with the way its on steam, it's treated as DLC so you have to purchase both the base game and Iceborne even after Iceborne launches (there is a package deal in which you get both at the price of what the base game was originally, so basically buying just one game)
@@kori228 i much prefer what capcom do now with the newer games (I've been playing since freedom unite on PSP) i used to wait until the G rank versioms came out anyway to buy it
@@zogozogy98 most mh games base version never came to the west. Most of them only came with the g rank add on years later.

@D00m Slayer new monster the one you fight after ruiner nergie
I've played both monster Hunter and dauntless. And honestly, they're their own games. Monster Hunter has a deep history with over a decade of experience in creating a world, monsters, environment and everything needed to make you stop thinking in terms of a gamer and in the mindset of a Hunter. Dauntless is new but checks off the basic prerequisites that you need for a monster Hunter game. The thing is, there are behemoths, elemental variants, easier upgrade progression, a simplified Skill slot system via cells and a variety of different weapons to keep you interested including exotic variants of each weapon type. Both have their pros and cons. But in the end, they're both amazing games in their own right.
And to be honest, my first monster Hunter was MH4U. And my God did this game kick my ass for a good bit. I got stuck on the great Jaggi, Nerscylla, seltas queen and various monsters throughout my learning the game, the weapons, the world and my personal playstyle. I would honestly play MH4U right now if someone asked me to. It's the perfect game to introduce beginner hunters to as well. I've played world and honestly while I enjoy world, I don't think new players realize how busted it is to give new hunters weapons with blast right from the get go. Vets will understand.
Dauntless has monsters with different elements which you would think "oh they fight the same so meh!" And that's when you waste your first revive after you get laid out. Honestly I could go on and on but to summarize, both games are AWESOME! Sometimes people need to remember that in the end, wether it's elder dragons or a rezakiri and shroud, we're all players that love killing monsters because we love the challenge it brings us.
I love both they both have their own style which is awesome
bbeckford90 What do you mean by *weapons with blast* ?
@@lachy4565 there are weapons in monster hunter that have stat ailments on them. Sleep which puts monsters to sleep. Paralysis which is obvious. Poison which poisons the monster and in some cases weakens elder dragons. And blast which does flat damage to a monster and ignores body part defense. To put into perspective, say you fight a jagras that has 1200 hp. And each blast proc does between 100-150 damage. If you were using a fast weapon like sword and shield, you would only need 5 to 7 procs to kill the monster. That's excluding damage your weapons already doing.
bbeckford90 thanks
bbeckford90 what are procs? I’m a bit new. Gonna buy MHW play that on PS4 and Dauntless on Switch.

Dauntless is for more of casual players while mhw is for people who will spend more time on it. Of course mhw could be casual too but most of the people who play it they are likely more to spend more time on it because of tedious stuff collecting items, weapons, and tracks. (700 hours)
Yeah collecting weapons and stuff takes a while... I've sank like 820 hours and I've barely finished getting all of the greatswords and like half of the insect glaives, I've even still got the last 2 optional Iceborne quests to unlock yet...

16:10 I’ve never had a problem with anyone “ruining my hunt” and everyone that joins it always trying to help out. This whole video kinda feels that you haven’t actually played mhw
But the key word here is that YOU'VE never had this problem. And to me it sounds like your saying: 'I never had this problem, so they must never have played the game! Shameful!'
GamingCheetahTV true but lots of the other facts about monster hunter were also wrong.
He hasn’t reached endgame or even finished so..
GamingCheetahTV he Never has That Problem i Never has That Problem Nobody i know has That problem and everyone here in the comments seems like Not having That problem.... Must be coincidence and were just all lucky
It happens. Now and then. Uh. I do it lol. I was a dick when extreme behemoth came out and joined party’s nude.
I love seeing all the people say mhw wins but no one points out that he called the charge blade a great sword.
i figured it was close enough because that shit's SLOW
I'm certain he hasn't played a single second of mh, the handler literally tells you it transforms into an axe
Or the fact that he was using the Insect Glaive without getting the buffs. Like, he was literally sending his Kinsect away from the monsters without trying to get buffs. As an IG main that really hurt me. It really seemed like he just doesn't know.
I haven't played either game and I can tell just from this video that Monster Hunter is miles ahead. Why pretend that Dauntless even competes? I'm surprised that game is still alive considering how simple and goofy it looks.
Dauntless is simple, it's goofy, but it's fun. It throws you pretty much into the big monster fights which are fast paced and rewarding.. People love it because it's exactly what it's meant to be: a free to play, quick paced hack and slash. Although the idea comes from Monster Hunter, in my opinion it's only the shell which is similar. It's like comparing Battlefield with Fortnite (it really does remind you of Fortnite).
Monster Hunter, instead, is a hardcore, complicated game that builds on top of micromanaging and the creatures' biology. As many people say, there is a moment in MH fans when the game just clicked, and it was love from then on. The world's depth is what people love: seeing how monsters act and react with their surroundings. It is more, as the name says, a fantasy hunting simulator.
That said, I am a really old school MH player, so I may be biased and I personally find Daunless more repetitive than MHW, but it's just because the game style doesn't suit me. So yeah, everyone should try both and it makes sense that both games have a fanbase, although we are usually at each other's throats haha
Because it's good at what it does, get to the monster fight deal damage, dodge attacks, boop monsters, enter mechanics, and kill the monster in a very fast way, giving you more time to do more things around you or other than the game. Like me, i play it at my work break so i can relax. I play both tho, i play MHW at home on weekends, it just eats more time for 1 fight and story, Dauntless is just different, they just have the same 1 goal, kill the monster.
Also being like hey Monster Hunter on Max has only 50 fps like WTF man dauntless Looks like a game from 2011 without textures and u consider comparing ist to a Good looking Game and only mention That dauntless has higher framerate
it’s not supposed to be a serious game, man. dauntless and monster hunter aren’t really comparable, they’re just the same genre.

The only plus dauntless has over mhw is it’s price. To access the full game of mhw you need to pay $80. With dauntless, you just install it and there you go. Also cutscenes are skippable in dauntless. But in every other criteria, mhw wins by a million miles
@@ex-specter3213 But these are probably the best 80$ you can spend on a game. Seriously there is so much Content in World

In Dauntless, you register for a hunt. That is it. There is no other content.
When I got tired of World and started Dauntless, it always made me go back to World. World has something that Dauntless has, but I can't put it into words. Now after having 500 hrs into World/Iceborne, I'm trying out MHGU on Switch, and I'm having a blast. I think old fans shit on World/Iceborne entirely too much. It's a great game, an Amazing MH experience, AND it gave me a greater appreciation of the old formula.
Before World my experience was with 4U on 3ds, but I only got to that games flagship monster before deciding it just wasn't for me, but World gave me the initiative to try again. I have a respect and appreciation for both the old and new as a result. I'm going to go all the way into GR because the monsters are just too cool not to dabble.
Tbf even I didn't play it (yet hopefully) I still can't shake the "newish bad" feel to it. But that's because I was so used to playing MHFU. I think I clocked more than a thousand hours on it over the spans of years.
A lot of the old MH fans dislike that World/Iceborne is easier because it doesn't require you to really manage your resources like you used to have to, and ditched the old clunky combat/monster system for a better streamlined/smooth version
@@chadsullivan3645 agreed mhw is alot faster than the older game including the a.i for the monsters where they would normally spam the same attack, locking you in place or just have massive hit boxes

The pandemic part is a bit of a stretch, but I agree that quarantine would probably end a lot quicker if we suppose that people had better comprehension.
After forcing myself to play dauntless for around 50 hours. It just doesnt feel as good to play. Theres a level of polish and feel that doesnt have.
And the weapon variety is laughable in dauntless when comparing it to monster hunter, I couldn't really find a playstyle I clicked with in dauntless, but I love playing like 4 different weapons in MHW
yeah, weapons doesn't have weight...
@@slashine1071 and just that one time i started hating dauntless when they nerfed one of my fav weapons to unusable
I played Dauntless a couple of months back because I heard good things about it. So I tried it. I played it for 4 days straight and I really enjoyed playing it.
Into the third day however, I remember that Monster Hunter was a thing, and before this, I only played a tiny bit of it a long time ago. Now that I remembered, in the last 2 days of me playing Dauntless, the only thing I could do was Monster Hunter. So I eventually bought it.
Now, in the 2 months since I got the game, I have 370 hours total and have almost finished my end game build.

Before watching, I can tell you with complete certainty MHW is far superior in ALMOST every aspect. The monsters are just bosses, not interactable AT ALL. They don't feel alive. While MHW doesn't have great storyline, it's still good and adds a depth to the game dauntless barely has. You're entire playstyle of even the same weapon could be completely different to another just by your skills in the armour and decos. there are also far more weapon choices, allowing greater freedom and more likely to find a weapon that suits you best. I've played both with a friend, enjoyed both but after MHW dautless just feels like a wannabe monster hunter that can never hope to compare, making enough different that it's not the same, but still a copy
Decos make so much customisation it's insane, not to mention you can use layered armour, and colour your armour. Back to decorations. Each armour piece has slots of varying levels. You can fit decos into these slots, which can add to skills already in your armour pieces or other skills you don't already have. If you use a certain amount of armour pieces from the same set, that can activate a set bonus. Say you use 3 pieces or teostra armour. You now have an ability where you don't lose sharpness on critical hits. These skills can massively alter your playstyle.
Agreed. Dauntless monster feels like they're just there, while mhw monster feels like they're ALIVE.
Hell there's multiple play styles for each weapon as well, you can play raw sns, elemental sns, support sns, there different shellings on gun lance, the phials on cb, all the ammo types on the bow guns, I was using stickies on lbg but now I've been using elemental (alatreon lbg) and it's like a whole different weapon and I love it, there is so much variety in mh games, I tried dauntless when it came out and I just felt very Kmart mh to me so I quit and started playing some mhw and mhgu

MH if you’re not homeless, otherwise Dauntless is free guys, have fun.
Most important thing you forgot about playing solo in MHW the monster has ALOT less health. Which makes playing solo very easy if you're a skilled player.
The thing is you have to spend a lot of hours to be what I would consider as skilled( knowing most of monsters pattern & how to dodge them + build knowledge)
I played a lot of Mh and when I played dauntless in solo I found it so much easier then MH... like there was no challenge, most of the monster have really slow moves which let you dodge it easly even at first sight. I found myself almost never dying throught the story in dauntless where it could take me up to 40-50 try to pass some monsters in MH( Say hi to the lovely Extreme Behemoth (Ik it's supposed to be a multiplayer fight but eh))
No, multiplayer has you doing less damage per player. Solo forces you to deal 100% of the monster's health but in multiplayer each player only needs to deal 57% of the original health.
So yeah, multiplayer has less health
@@mrsanguini5819 Well in MHW health values actually rise when more people will join. Wikis will have most health values listed for monsters and even having overlays to see monsters health, ko damage, elemental buildup ect. you can see monsters health values rise when players join. For example, deviljho in high rank with 1 player will usually be in the 8,000 to 9,000 range, while 3 players is around 20k. The amount of damage you deal is still the same but there is a bigger pool to drain from.
TBH its usually just one or 2 players carrying the weight of the whole party.
And also screw extreme behemoth. Even with end game Iceborn MR gear I still have trouble dealing with that bastard hr monster.

@@bagusprayogo7025 my problem is he mentions dauntless' reskin far after monster hunter instead of soon after
Side note for monster hunter: depending on the map or environment your fighting in sometimes there will be stuff you can use to your advantage. Turf wars: turf wars are when 2 monsters have a fight this can do extra damage to the monster your hunting and gives you a better chance. Environmental things. In certain areas, using your slinger can knock a bunch of things to deal extra damage. For example in the ancient forest, in one part of the map there are boulders hanging from vines, if you hit it with your slinger they will drop and if they land on the monster deal tons of damage. Thanks for reading and Happy Hunting!
Your issue with the canteen can be solved by creating loadouts for the food you’ve made, it saves all the combinations you’ve used and makes it easier to cycle through.
Dauntless is literally just fortnight monster hunter. MHW not only has plenty of freely added content and plenty of dlc that adds tones of hours on top of the already long and impressive game. The monsters of dauntless are unique to that game but honestly just alright nothing notable sadly since they could have made it much more interesting than generic monsters
U r not the clown, u r the entire circus
General Grievous he has a point
Aaron Solano Rosales hitler had a point, I’m not comparing him to hitler but saying that he has a point is a weird thing to say on it own
General Grievous hittler’s point was “if I kill all jews then germany will be healthy.” Not the best person to say “Y’aknow, that guy had a point.” Also weird response I think you were going somewhere with it but the grammar is messed up so please try again.
General Grievous really do wonder what you see issue with though since I’ll keep on dauntless’s ass about it and honestly that game only serves as a Monster Hunter entry for people who don’t wanna pay $60 for the base game AND dc combined so 🤷♂️
Played and loved Dauntless... Until the time came that Epic blocked my credit card and account for trying to purchase a $5 worth cosmetic item.
I said, F*** that... I'm gonna buy a $50 worth game and boom!... Monster Hunter. A thousand hours later and I still love it, still playing it and excited for Alatreon.
Tried getting back at Dauntless but I felt sick of it. Long queue times, disconnecting from servers... Basically you are wasting your time on a game that can or cannot be there for you when you need it. (youre just a side priority to it. its love belongs to Tim Sweeney lol). Whereas MHW (aside from the obvious technical plus points) is there for you even if you did not pay the internet bill. And it will let you purchase $100+ worth of DLCs to dress up your cute character without blocking your account ( tried and tested :P )
Had both, deleted dauntless in a day and still have mhw but I’m gonna be pouring my time into code vein
Im kinda sad that alatreon was scheduled back because of Covid
you'll be locked out of offline mode if you're offline for more than 5 days in a row on steam due to denuvo so you still need the internet connection often on the pc version (go online again to reset)
@@kori228 Not sure about that... Been cut off the internet for more than a month last year due to stupid ISP. The only thing that keep my cool was the thought I have my offline games. Sure enough they all worked fine including Monster Hunter. I'm not sure if they changed it after Iceborne.
@@oneproductionman hm, idk then. I was stuck without internet for a couple days some time ago and mine wouldn't start cause I hadn't played in a while.
Dauntless reminds me of the old monster hunter games. In a few years this game might actually be amazing.
This boy literally tried to use FPS as an argument. First get a better PC and second if you cant no shit Dauntless will run better. It only has 4 players a fairly basic map with nothing of substance and a simple monster.
I know right like dauntless is literally just a hollow shell

Very good review. Your voice is great for RUclips. Keep going
how the f you dont mention behemoth and event quest for skins/layered armor. i think you didnt play mhw in the fullest
Seems like he didn't play World fully.
Well he only got to Vaal Hazak so, yeah... I'm pretty sure he just got tired of the gameplay loop
B b behemoth Vietnam flashback :( even in at he is heavy af
He said he only played 100 hours of each. Probably didn't play up to behemoth in 100 hours
100hrs on monster hunter is still being new to the game, 1000hrs is your casual player that knows the game pretty well
Y'all gotta stop to think, dauntless is online only, meaning if they decided to shut the servers down it's over unless they make an offline patch before closing it.
Just a side note about eating before a hunt: you can eat once you’re actually in the quest. There’s a little stone bench in the camp where the handler will cook up whatever meal ya want. Just in case you forget to eat before. Honestly I’ve put way more time into MHW than almost any other game. I love it. Also MHW has a semi simlar system to the trials in the form of arena quests. You get a set load out and try to kill the designated monster as fast as possible. It’s a nice little thing for speed runners and even has gear tied to it, some it pretty damn good. Anywho, just wanted a few more things thrown in there that I felt were left out, good vid and thank you for not saying they’re the same 😂 these games are almost in different genres in terms of gameplay.
Sometimes you get dropped in right next to the monster instead of camp, so you can’t always rely on eating there
Sam James this is true, but should that happen you can fast travel to the camp and eat. The monster isn’t aggro on you for about 5-10 seconds depending. If it is aggro you can farcaster out.
Its still better to eat beforehand
Sam James indeed. Was just clarifying some things. Sorry if I seemed rude in any way

I personally found myself just saying "Oh like Monster Hunter" during every single one of the points where he talks about what makes Dauntless different, though it really just seems like stuff Dauntless just swept up from either the current or previous Monster Hunter games, except a lot more hand holdish, easy, slow, and just flat out worse.
just gunna give you guys a tip on dauntless, theres this bug where when you faint, your avater is still standing up. make use of that and try to launch a flare, it triggers something which in turn allows you to move and attack with zero hp. keep in mind that you can still be revived while moving and that the danger meter will still continue going up
Greaaaat job on this video dude got my subscription man!!!
I've played both games and dauntless is almost nothing compared to monster hunter world. Dauntless is just boring and I'm never satisfied when I kill a monster. The entire map of dauntless feels dead while mhw has the environment filled with monsters, endemic life, and environmental traps you can use against the monsters. The dauntless combat is too simple for me, each weapon feels like you just using the same basic combo while avoiding the monsters attacks that are so slow that they make my grandma look fast. Some of the mhw weapons are pretty simple (great sword) however you have to put a little more thought into your attacks then pressing the same botton over and over again. The monsters in dauntless shouldn't be allowed to be compared to the monsters of mhw. They just sit a one place in the map and wait for you to fight it while the monsters in world feel like living creatures who hunt, eat, drink, and sleep like a normal animal would. The monsters in mhw also have some cool interactions with each other. The only two things that dauntless does better is that it's free to play and you can play with people across other platforms.
Agree MHWI trumps it
Yeah mhw just beats it without no competition however if money is tight then dautnless is alright i guess sorry but mhw is just so good and way better then dautnless.
This guy needs to try classic monster hunter if he thinks dauntless is even a valid alternative.

He wont, because probably the only fun one is generations ultimate

Thank you for the value. Great comparison vid.
I hate to ask but how does dauntless feel in comparison to monster hunter generations. I hit the end game brick wall and really hate how world changed things I enjoyed from one game to the other
I'm just going to go ahead and say it...encourage new titles! All it means is you have more variation in gameplay, choice and monsters to hunt. If you don't like a game that's fine, but there is always a chance that something better comes out of it. More competition means Monster Hunter has to stand it's ground and prove it's the best with new content and awesomeness.
While Monster Hunter World has more content, depth and "better" graphics (subjective to the style). There is no denying that it is the better monster/behemoth hunting game.
But...
Dauntless is still only at the begging of it's journey in the genre (compared to an entire franchise in it) and is still finding itself as a game. The devs understand the game has problems and already have plans to rework the weapon mechanics as well as the cell system, which will most likely change the pacing of the hunts and the effort required to master the game. Visually it does look flat in places and they can definitely do much more with the style but islands are looking better with every new addition and I'm sure there will be some great views in the future.
Both are aimed at players who love the challenge of hunting a new monster. But while Monster Hunter World pretty much requires dedication before you can comfortably play it casually, Dauntless is geared towards casual gameplay. You are intended to be able to drop in for a quick hunt without feeling strained for time, while still providing the challenge of learning each behemoths fight mechanics so you don't get one-shot by a glorified lightning bug or the swan-dive of a fiery guerilla. Although right now the hunts are a little too quick at max lvl to be honest.
I have been playing Dauntless since it launched and only recently picked up Monster Hunter World (Damn that price tag!). I enjoy both games a lot...for different reasons.
I feel some people miss the point. I see comments saying "this will last longer" but no one knows how long a game will last, not even the owners of the game know until they check or shut it down themselves(or maybe someone gets sued for copyright or something[then again that never stopped fortnite ]). So saying "this will last longer" isn't accurate at all. It's all about play style,difficulty,your choice of variety,simplicity,basically just preference in general. I'm glad you made this video to clear this out for others on the fence
Yeah, alot of people are missing the point. I literally say at the start of the video I'm not trying to prove one game is better or worse, I'm simply trying to un-muddy the water since people dismiss dauntless as a monster Hunter knock off (as if monster Hunter is the only game allowed to exist in it's genre). And looking through the comments people still continue to say that. People are allowed to like and defend there favorite game, it's the dismissiveness that gets under my skin.
The Cyborg Waffle it’s just like what happened when fortnite came out, everyone gripes how it was just a free to play knockoff of PUBG. But now that the game has been out for over two years and everyone and their grandma knows about it, it’s easy to see that while both fortnite and PUBG are battle royal games, each has their own specific unique gameplay elements that set it apart from the rest. Same genre, different games. That’s what I enjoy about playing new games because I like to see how a company puts their own take on the original formula. It keeps things interesting and adds variety.
Im about to buy monster hunter. Does monster hunter have like a party system through online?
Yes
Played monhun since 3 ultimate and tried Dauntless out. I'm glad to see more variety in this very small genre of games, but they have a lot of work to do if they want to even get close to what monhun has to offer. I spent about a week on Dauntless and beat everything they had at the time, but monhun can keep you entertained for months. Every game has released new content for a year or two after the games release. World was the first to have paid dlc, but it was still worth it for what you get.
Dauntless is like a starter version of mhw. It's simplified in just about every way. The builds, the weapons, hell, when the monsters themselves. If you want something more.. I guess gritty? Than dauntless or more challenging than move onto mhw.
Honestly what I hate most about Dauntless us that they basically say "well its not monster hunter, its based more on the actual bossfights", but then the bossfights are like 7 enemies with different elements and a color palette change. Like seriously thats not how games work. It makes it boring, and even tho I really wanted to play, with people telling me the endgame gets better. After investing 20 hours into this game and still not having any fun I quit. It feels like some highschool project to recreate MHW. Atleast its free and not that hard on your computer, but still
trying to make mhw sounds less exciting when you use freakin dragon element great sword on a kuluyaku and you missed a lot.... you sure don't play the game that long.... (just complaining about the elemental weakness not used properly it annoys the heck out of my perfectionist soul) btw main hammer, HBG and charge blade here. they are the best weapons in the game change my mind.
I personally really like lance, i just find it satisfying but i also really like hammer
Sns is cool
You wouldnt get those high numbers without my music
I won’t but to me hammer HBG charge blade big boi sword and anime stick are good but ain’t good enough hunting horn and sword and shield are god weapons
@@toaster83 this guy gets it
Pretty good vids but i noticed some small mistakes. The chargeblade one has already been pointed out but attacks in mh dont cost stamina unless you do specific combo's or actions. Ragemode with dualblades and a switchaxe combo cost stamina if i remember correctly
What weapon do you main in MH:W? You say you have 100+ hours but by the skill of your gameplay it looks like you just started when you use the IG and GS.
1:08 when he calls them dinosaurs I had to step out. He didn’t even call them dragons. He just reduced them to simple dinosaurs *walks out*
i mean they're wyverns, but yeah
The late game of MHW and MHW:IB have intricate beasts like unicorns, manticores, and literal "black dragons" in recent updates too. I feel like this video's explanation of MHW would've been much more preferable and less biased if he actually took the meta-game/end-game into better consideration. Farming for a Vaal Hazak set (a notoriously easy Elder DRAGON) is definitely a point in the game that doesn't explore the full cast of MHW's monsters, and is indicative that he didn't explore past the campaign as much as the game actually has to offer.
This guy hasn’t even reached the end, or even fought Lunastra LOL.
For real like mhw is so much better and sunbreak is gonna be great
Back when mhw iceborne was beta from ps4 im never been so confused (dauntless player)and im like why you running? And why you eating that stuff?

Nitro Raptor not rlly I used to play it a lot but it’s just rlly boring now
@@generalgrievous3830 When was the last time you played world?
Nitro Raptor November
Okay seriously some of the monster attacks in mhw and Dauntless are the exact same like the side crash where the monster uses its weight to smash it's side into you or the head crash where they put there head on the ground and ram it towards you (I'm BSing these names I'm just saying what they are)
My first thought that crossed my mind when I killed my first boss in dauntless was, "Well I'm glad that's over." There was really no satisfaction. I then quit after about 15hrs due to the bosses being reskins of each other really early on. I just remember everything feeling unsatisfying and janky like there was no real effort put into the game. I wouldn't ever be able to recommend dauntless just from that experience and I would tell people to just save up for MHW.
I really liked your video but there is just a point i don't agree about. I actually played dauntless for like 1 or 2 hours i have no idea about what to do when you finish the story part. But i am hunter rank(which is the monster hunter:world rank) 151 and master rank 94 (when you buy iceborne expansion which is 40 dolars, it is like buying a whole new game). When you finish monster hunter for most of the people that is the part when the game actually starts to be enjoyable. I think you stopped playing monster hunter when you finished the game because you didn't mension about seiges. In monster hunter there are sieges like kulve tarroth and safi'jiiva(safi'jiiva is only available if you buy iceborne). Kulve tarroth siege is a monster that is a different kind of quest it has persuit levels and every time you go on a quest you try to deal as much damage as you can and most probably monster is going to escape at pursuit level 1 becacause it is the hardest pursuit level and breaking monster parts is so hard.as you break more parts during the next pursuit levels it will continue to rise to level 6 which is max once you reach level 6 which is the easiest to hunt you try to break kulve tarroth's horns. Once you break it according to the parts you've broken you get a reward level. you get randomized max level wapons and try to carve for the weapon you want. I actually spent my whole summer to get a weapon called "Tarroth sword Fire " and seiges are one of the small things that you can do. You can do investigations to augment your wapon(it is as long as siege so i won't explain). You can carve for decorations and different type layered armors(if you don't look of your armor you can use layered armor and it gives you a different look) and with the iceborne expansion there are whole different mechanics like guiding lands and steamworks(they are too long please go and seach for it if u are curious) and different monster open after you finish the game. Also there are special assignments like hunting deviljho and there is a quest where monster hunter and witcher combines and you play as gerald of rivia. Thanks if you read it this far i hope u have a better idea about monster hunter world and iceborne expansion.
I totally agree dude I wanna add a few things wich he forgot mainly the arena in MHW also has a leaderboard so it’s not just dauntless with „challenges“ and your times will be displayed either for everyone who has your guild card or on the event arena quest the whole world. Also I don’t understand why he called it a con for MHW that certain monsters look a like in the expansion (like subspecies and stuff) but then defends the same point in dauntless saying that it is a completely different fight wich again is the same for MHW. And I also think it’s weird how he said that in dauntless you can KO monsters and stuff like that but forgets to mention that MHW has the same (the older games had it too) and about the tenderising aspect in dauntless: the clutch claw is a thing in iceborne. Although it should be mentioned that the video was made before iceborne released (could have been out on console already but he’s playing on pc) so a few aspects he couldn’t have known about like the Clutch claw but even in MHW the parts close to breaking where a bit more white showing where a lot of damage has been dealt and so on. TBH I think MHW is a much better game than dauntless (a biased opinion for sure) mainly because there are so many aspects that MHW has that dauntless doesn’t.

Its post-apocalyptic techno-primitive which culminates in a technology level about equal to the 17th century with a some more advanced instances of technology from the fallen more advanced society (mostly in weapons and armor)
Wrong it's nothing like Horizon but weapons and armour are made by blueprints of a extinction ancient civilization
Dauntless has only two pros in my opinion:
-It's free
-It's playable on the Switxh
Other than thay, MHW beats it in almost every regard. Dauntless is basically discount Monster Hunter, and I say that as someone who played a lot of Dauntless in the past.
Well now dauntless only has the fact it’s free, knowing Monster Hunter Rise is coming out.
@@bigbaz4632 Haha yeah
Hyped as fuck for that
@@juicyjuustar121 Game Awards were amazing.
@@bigbaz4632 amazing for game announcements
The awards themselves were uhhhhhhh, okay I guess?
@@juicyjuustar121 Yeah it was amazing generally speaking when TLou2 wasn’t winning, and there wasn’t ads.
No hate but, this guy plays a lot of dauntless and just played mhw for like 10hrs i cringed so hard srry
@Kromo-Zome so..
@Kromo-Zome There are several factors wrong with the insinuation that their anime profile picture is bad, notably being that it doesn't fit in the context. "This person has an anime profile picture" is usually reserved for people who voice obnoxious and unhelpful opinions that would fit the stereotype of anti-social weaboo/hikikomori/otaku groups. Other minor details would be the context of society itself, becoming less critical over what is regarded as "cringe-worthy" nowadays. There's been a steered focus from shifting the ostracism over anime fans towards more immature groups, like Gacha Life adolescents. This is also just my opinion, but lastly, the character in their profile picture (which I would assume is Umaru-chan?) isn't even from an anime that I presume (?) exhibits any edgy tropes. Not to mention that it would be slightly hypocritical to point out a comedy anime profile picture, considering your own is comically driven too. Admittedly, "I cringed so hard; sorry," didn't provide a thorough basis for its opinion, but seeing as it's already valid criticism for this video, that's alright in retrospect. My assumption is that you probably attempted to degrade their opinion by pointing out a "flaw" in the speaker's character; however, you failed to see that their comment was a largely unbiased opinion that wasn't even necessarily straying on the negative spectrum. I know this issue is largely unimportant, but it creates an overall disconnect with people's willingness to discuss ideas, provide constructive criticism, and share opinions when others shame them for the misconstrued belief that certain interests a person has devalues their input. The origin of a person does indeed matter in voicing their opinion, but it's somewhat insensitive to take the stance that anyone who consumes a particular form of entertainment shouldn't be speaking about things. I also understand that your insult is unassuming, but the overused nature of it led me to think that you had this specific goal in mind when saying it. You could've simply disagreed without implicitly attacking them, assuming that you even disagree with their deduction, which wasn't even initially clarified. It would've also been better to just explain why you disagree, which would've prompted a much better conversation that doesn't portray yourself as poorly.
Tried Dauntless once, deleted within an hour. Monster Hunter is one of my favorite games of all-time.
Great review, refreshing to see someone who has played both games and doesn't call Dauntless a copy.
If MHW ever gets a leaderboard system I'd like to try it, my favorite part of Dauntless is the satisfaction of spending hours grinding trials to finally get a top 100 leaderboard time, sometimes it feels undeserved because of how fast the fight goes and how little dodging is required to earn a spot on the board. Pristine damage optimization is required to keep the behemoth down longer so even though youre dodging less there's a lot of skill put into keeping the behemoth in a state where you don't have to dodge it. Since MHW has slower time to kill and less chainstaggering/staggerlocking (or so I've heard) I think I'd enjoy it more on a speedrunning/competitive level than Dauntless.
arena leaderboards or "iceborne.seiken.io". I also wanna say monster hunter's speedrunning scene is one of the most engaged, versatile and creative I have ever seen and completely outshines dauntless or TONS of other games' speedrunning scenes for that matter.
@@tamago9026 in that case I'll definitely give it a try
@@ThePikeOfDestiny 👍 have fun
@@ThePikeOfDestiny ruclips.net/video/A9zCfznek90/видео.html this video should help cover the basics of SPEEDRUNNING. Not of general gameplay or even the hidden mechanics of the game, but of speedrunning. For the others i'm sure just asking on the mhw speedrunning discord or smthg will get you answers (links to the discord on the leaderboard website)
A dedicated leaderboard system that the game actually has implemented for itself might be difficult, since modifications aren't punishable by default. Mods can range from quality-of-life buffs to just obliterating monsters in a single swipe, hence why people usually record their entire hunt to share with like-minded speedrunners.
Yeah , you didnt even touch on hit zones and weapon categories for MHW. gunner, blunt and sever . Which do different damage values to different parts of every monster which you need to break to get certain mats for crafting. Shit gets DEEP.
Yeah cuz that's also in dauntless.
@@zenzonerzz4789 ok cool
@UCFFCcSiBJNXcTw4T_FQ14Hg no in dauntless there is just different kinds of damage like part damage,wound,and stagger,and basic.and ill also say tho its not damage there is the mechanic where you can interrupt behemoth(booping). however individual monster hitzones and elemental hitzones arent a thing in dauntless.(you do same damage no matter where you hit the behemoth) the different parts you need to break tho is in dauntless tho
@@Pokejon2000 in MH you have have elemental values, power values, part breakage, stumbling values, flinch values, knock out values, individual hit zones and values for every weapon type blunt, sever, projectile. I'm forgetting so much shit too. I couldn't even sit here and pretend I could cover all the damage values and types of damage off the top of my head.
@@Pokejon2000 every weapon will hit every part of a monster for different values as well as different elements. Not too mention we have raw and elemental damage which also split damage values again. Raw being poison, blast, sleep and paralysis weapons. Elemtnal being fire, water ,ice , thunder and dragon. Which match monster differently between all of them . Some of equally as effective, some apply specific effects obviously. I'm still forgetting stuff in this second comment too. I just cant remember all the stuff without re reading it or playing the game to jog my memeory.
Having played both, I can say that dauntless is just casual mhw. This is great if you don't have enough time to dedicate to monster hunter yet still want to enjoy the genre. If you are made of nothing but time, there isn't really a reason to avoid mh.
Another thing to take into account is glitches. Dauntless has many small ones while mhw has a few major ones. If you fall through the map on dauntless or lose your weapon, press start and hit the corresponding button to fix that. If you fall through the map on monster hunter, you have to leave the hunt. It can be argued that dauntless is far inferior since the devs had to add those buttons, but it's up to our whether it's bad or not. On a personal note, I would love if more games had that button. Hunting AT Nerg, getting him to low health, then falling through the map results in an anger that cannot be described using the English language
Thing is there are people like me that always try to avoid free to play games out of fear on how the game might be monetized aggresively in the future. Prefer pay full price upfront than jebaited with pay to win mechanics after investing too much time later on. Still looks promising, might try later on when i runs out of things to do in MHW:IB. Good vids!
I see what youre saying cause it seems like every f2p goes to shit after awhile. I was hoping things with Phoenix Labs were going to be different, theyre a small studio and I've been following and supporting them before the game was even in alpha. Unfortunately the studio was just acquired by Garena, a south korean studio known for its awful mobile games, so, while I love Dauntless and Phoenix labs, things do feel a little doom and gloom right now. Nothing has changed as of yet, but if you choose to get into the game in the future, I would recommend finding some info on the state of the game at the time.
Interesting comments below rendering it's possible some peeps only played one or neither of the games and they're riding on whatever game seems to get the most positive comments. Imo, i say they're both awesome.
