The villagers, however, expect you to slay a sea serpent who has been terrorizing the island. After customizing your character from gender to vocal attitude, you begin as a rookie with nothing but a hunting knife, iron sword and a poor excuse for armor. While touted as a “story mode,” the true purpose of the Village is to develop your skills as a player and nab a few pieces of armor before making a fool out of yourself among more experienced users. But before you dabble in online quests, it’s best you get your feet wet in the Village first. Of course, in the Village, it’s just you and eventually your tiny, somewhat helpful companion Cha-Cha as compared to the City where thousands of people of different Hunter Ranks are ready to join up. Both follow the same pattern of scavenging, hunting and customizing your equipment sets. Split into two modes, you have the option of slashing monsters offline in the Moga Village or online with friends and strangers in the big bad City. Despite somewhat blocky graphics and slightly antiquated mechanics, the newest installment on the Wii is just as addictive as the rest. The Monster Hunter franchise has already made a name for itself as the end-all, be-all of fantasy beast slaying where tagging leviathans and carving swaths of dragon flesh for armor is just another day in the field.
