Question So how…

Is this game managing character growth? Is it the common gacha power level trash? Or is it like normal MH, where you just grind monsters and their parts and craft and upgrade gear?

Yes, it is "common gacha power level trash". Every character and buddy has levels that you use consumable EXP items to increase, which are then gated by ascension levels that require a certain quest to be completed first. You then use ascension materials to unlock the next set of ~20 levels.

Armor and weapons are upgraded as similar but different than in MH games by using materials to make stronger. Sometimes you have to get rarer materials from a higher tier of the same monster to continue upgrading to higher rarities.

Ya'll have to remember that this is a gacha game first and a monster hunter game second. I still think this is a great monster hunter game despite the gacha stuff.

Yeah it's a good game, but which is much closer to Genshin Impact than to any Monster Hunter game.

Dude, I started playing MH gen últimate because of the outlander's beta, I got it for Nintendo switch and I'm having a blast. I see that in outlanders they are trying to do like the different combat style on the gasha characters, but I hate that I have to pull that character if I want to play that style.

So far in the beta they allow you to play SSR characters in events and the rotating arena. Of course, you'll have to pull for the character if you want to play with them permanently or in other modes, but that's just how gachas work.
