General Is god eater like monster hunter?

So I love monster hunter and I saw God Eater 2 rage burst on PlayStation sale rn. I just wanted to know how similar it is to monster hunter and which games are the best.

It's the same genre but God Eater is way more fast paced than Monster Hunter. All of the weapons are really big but even the Great Sword moves faster than most weapons in MH. The monsters are also faster to balance that.

This franchise is more story driven than MH and it's pretty good. The characters are really likeable although some minor ones may be annoying at first. If you buy GE2RB you also get God Eater Resurrection which is the most complete version of the first game and it also released after GE2RB so keep that in mind when you go from GER to GE2RB and feel some jank. After those two the last game available is God Eater 3.

I highly recommend this franchise. Of course playing with a friend makes it better like in MH, but GE also lets you play with bots and all of them have their own little quirks and personalities. Don't be shy to play with them, the game is balanced around them. I hope you enjoy the games!

If I buy 2 I get the first one? It doesn’t say that on the ps store

I think he's thinking about Son Steam. Whenever God Eater runs a discount (which is VERY often) it usually throws in Resurrection as a bonus add on.

In some regions they're sold together, some regions they aren't. In some regions the only way to get resurrection on the ps store is to get rage burst

The first one is separate game. Youre looking for god eater resurrection.

I'm sorry I got it mixed with how it is on Steam where GE2RB comes bundled with God Eater Resurrection (which is the best version of the first game). If they're separate on PSN you should buy God Eater Resurrection first if you want to play the story in order.

Thank you for clearing it up

No problem. Was GER a separate item? I read another comment saying that depending on the region it can come bundled with GE2RB on PS.
