It's better than I had actually expected it to be. I'd definitely recommend giving it a shot. 

I would be more than happy to be the resident source of MHS info.

Now the only issue is deciding what I want my monster buddy to be. I like so many of the ones I have. My bulldrome is an absolute powerhouse. 

I also want a slagtoth and to name him Samson Jr. as a reference to something totally awesome that happened in MH4U.
