Is it played in MMORPG style in that it doesn’t have a pause feature? If so then it may as well be played online. If you can’t walk away from the game until you’re in a safe spot, then there’s no functional difference between an MMO and this game except you don’t get randos teabagging your corpse. This is why I stopped playing MH games.
I played MMOs for years and they’re great in some ways, but I got tired of always having to arrange myself safely before stepping away for a bio break or a snack.
It has a pause option, at least in a solo session. From what I understand it also can be played offline after the initial denuvo activation (but haven’t confirmed it myself). I’m not extremely far into the game yet but so far, the pacing of the game has been really quick and I’ve never once had to grind anything, but that may be in part due to my experience with monster hunter making it relatively easy to get by with lower tier equipment.
I definitely wouldn’t say it’s anything like an mmo or live service game besides the fact that it will get free content updates for a little while, and has the option of playing with friends.
