TRÁI TIM HOANG DÙ

The old saying goes that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but what they never tell you is just how difficult imitation is. With Wild Hearts, developer Omega Force has not only succeeded at the absurdly challenging task of imitating the Monster Hunter games, but it has actually managed to carve out a compelling identity of its own. At Wild Hearts’s outset, after creating my character, I was thrust into a land known as Azuma. Specifically, I was wondering through the dense forests, dark caves, and shallow rivers of Harugasumi Way, one of the game’s four main regions. It wasn’t long into my exploration before I was confronted by a beast—a giant rat, to be exact, but not a normal rat. This creature is known as the Ragetail, and it had what appeared to be a massive flower sprouting out of its eye and some sort of fruit growing out of its tail.
