The system for breeding, improving, and diversifying monsters is impressive: you won't find anything like it.
Riding on the back of your monsters is an incredible, fun, and very entertaining experience.
The cinematics have an enviable quality, both in animation and in their elaborate storytelling.
It is more and better compared to its previous deliveries.
Narratively very interesting world but underexplored.
The characters could be more developed.

Review Monster Hunter Stories 3 by Comunidad Xbox
An interesting plot that, combined with the other sections, is like playing a very entertaining anime.
More comprehensive exploration thanks to the fact that creatures are not only used for fighting, they also open up new paths.
Very neat artistic section. The anime-style visual continues to work wonders.
Technically solid, and in terms of sound quality, it performs adequately.
The breeding and customization system allows for the creation of very different teams.
The cube dungeons to find eggs remain uninspiring.
The structure of combat-exploration kinematics is repeated too often in certain sections.
Some textures or elements may appear slightly late during exploration.

Combat additions are just the right amount of depth that was needed
Presentation fires on all cylinders starts to finish
Monster roster is packed to the brim
Warring kingdoms backdrop makes for a great Monster Hunter narrative
Habitat restoration lets you play eco-god, and it rules
Let me fly properly dang it
Some baffling UI choices make the odd side objective a maddening mystery

The habitat restoration system gives meaning to hunting monsters.
The invading monsters and those with crystals bring variety to the battles.
The AI of allies brings improvements and facilitates coordination in double attacks.
A lot of exploration
Many monsters
It does not have a multiplayer mode.
The fights against normal monsters become repetitive.
After 3 games, I still don't understand the genes.

Fun characters and a good story to follow
Wide variety of monsters to collect
Habitat Restoration expands heavily on monster customization
Solid soundtrack
Only six of the weapon categories made it over
Late Habitat Restoration can be tedious
First encounters with most monsters is a guessing game

Monster Hunter Stories 3 reviewed by wccftech
Review Monster Hunter Stories 3 by wccftech
Cel-shaded character designs provide a vibrant backdrop to the stark, often apocalyptic landscape
Set two hundred years after the previous title with a player character than can finally speak for himself (although his Palico still does most of the talking)
Mix-and-match monster genes and elements to create some uniquely dangerous monsters
One hundred Poogies
Combat system that rewards preparation and memorizing enemy patterns
Challenging at every step of the way with some devilish endgame bosses to discover
Instantly slay monsters you outlevel and still get the experience and rewards
Narrative falls flat for the middle 50% while the player Hunter focuses on restoring the local wildlife
Core loop of gathering eggs, raising monsters, and sending them off to repopulate the world becomes a chore some twenty-hours in
No way to automatically track a monster's particular type of attack
Invasive monsters that must be repelled are a poorly executed puzzle mechanic

Review Monster Hunter Stories 3 by Beyond Gaming
The essence of Monster Hunter is integrated into this JRPG format.
Huge leap in terms of presentation after the 3DS games.
Exciting battles with complexity
Creating monsters also has deep layers.
Excellent soundtrack
Not all weapons from action games have been included here.
The biodiversity of the samples is a bit monotonous.
Sometimes, not enough emphasis is placed on history.
The English dubbing is once again on the weak side.
No post-game mode or New Game +, nor fishing mini-game.

Rich universe with many references
Uneven narration and lack of cohesion
Feeling of little marked progression
Gameplay loop that can become repetitive
