Is Monster Hunter: World good? (lemmygrad.ml)

I like RPGs. Final Fantasy, Witcher 3, Fallout 3 and 4, Skyrim, Morrowind, Oblivion, etc.

Will I enjoy Monster Hunter: World? Is it good? Does it have a good story? Or is it (too) fetch-questy?

I'm looking at this one because it's available with Spanish audio and text whereas other Monster World games only have Spanish text, if that. So the others aren't an option, but feel free to compare this one to the others.

There is very little voiced dialogue in monster hunter games, and none of it really matters. The story is less than secondary, the main focus of the game is hunting monsters and getting better and better gear to hunt more monsters with. Monster Hunter Stories might be a better fit, but I know nothing about it. It's a turn based rpg.

Worlds story has a lot of dialog and good cutscenes. Definitely a leg up over older versions. The game itself is gorgeous.

Stories is basically Monster Hunter: Pokemon edition.

I do like a good turn-based RPG. Plus, they tend to have lots of text, which means the audio can just be muted if the subtitles and text are in my target language. I'll have a look at MHS, thanks.
