Join Dylan Wren and special guest Dave Jackson from Tales from the Backlog and a Top 3 Podcast for an in-depth, down-to-earth conversation about Capcom’s latest action RPG sensation, Monster Hunter Wilds! Our hosts team up for a wide-ranging breakdown of everything Monster Hunter — from the perspective of a lifelong fan and a series newcomer.

They cover the series’ unique “prep-and-hunt” gameplay loop, the depth of combat, gear grinding, and the surprisingly nuanced evolution of the Monster Hunter formula in Wilds. Hear about first impressions of the open world, new weapon changes, the impact of in-game quality of life improvements, and why the monster battles themselves are the secret sauce behind Monster Hunter’s massive appeal. The duo also weigh in on the narrative side of Wilds: does the beefed-up story add anything, or is it just window dressing for more epic monster showdowns?

Whether you’re an old-school hunter or thinking of jumping in for the first time, this spoiler-light discussion (with a clearly marked story section at the end) is your perfect companion for your next gaming session. Plus, stick around for favorite monster rankings, endgame grind talk, and wishlist items for future updates!

Begins - 1:42:25
