Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection more than proves its worth in quality and depth. It masterfully translates the core of Monster Hunter into a single-player RPG that encourages deep engagement with systems and the world itself.

Even though I have many complaints with every single Stories game so far, I have also found each of them to be better than the last.
