A game that respects my time

He believes that Monster Hunter Wilds is generally easier. However, compared to the previous parts of the series, he appreciates that he does not have to invest as much time as before.
He now has a wife, a young child, and a full-time job. He loved the old games, but the long hunts and the grind with low drop chances would be unthinkable for him today: Personally, I like a game that respects my time and makes it clear to me that I cannot play like a teenager as if it were a job.
