Monster Hunter impressions?

Any impressions from you beta testers? Thinking of picking this up tonight, want to know if it's worth it.

Right now it's my "buy a new console game for the sake of saying *I bought a new console game*" title so I don't know that much about it. It seems to be much like PSO from what I've read. How much like PSO is it? If I liked PSO would this be a good title to pick up?

Also, it doesnt cost anything to play it online, right?

Thanks.
 
DCharlie seemed to like it.... A LOT!!

The only thing that scares me is the control scheme. You have to use the right analog stick to attack. If it feels anything like Rise to Honor you can count me out. Hopefully they will let you map an attack button in the US version or something but I doubt it.

The control couldn't be remapped in beta and I doubt it'll in final. It felt okay since this game isn't as fast paced as Rise of Honor...

Is it good? It does seem to have potential for multiplayers game. But I couldn't sit through the single player level 1 "tutorial" quests. There was one that involves you walking around to find some herbs or something to make 2 items. I went to places that seemed like I should be able to find the ingrediant. I found one. Then, I walked around the entire level pressing button repeatly hoping to find the second one. But I never did and time ran out and I just threw it away. :) Most of people seem to love it for multiplayers though.
