Happy for the game and I'm curious where its Japanese sales especially will land.

Personally, I think this will be my last MH-game. I'm 26 hours in and while it's fun, it also feels too much like a chore to me. Like, I "must" to this. That sounds like it's not fun at all, but that's not true. I think I just don't feel like fighting cpu-monsters only anymore, I need more story, characters and down-time around it. Basically Zelda, lol. Tbh I'd love an open-world MH with proper traversal, story and voiced npcs.

Anyway. My hope is that MHR reaches 5 million in Japan alone to 1up Portable 3rd. The West should manage at least 3 million, so a total of 8 million is my guess for MHR's total sales for now. With PC, it might very well go beyond 10 mio., which would be remarkable.
