I like RPGs. Final Fantasy, Witcher 3, Fallout 3 and 4, Skyrim, Morrowind, Oblivion, etc.

Will I enjoy Monster Hunter: World? Is it good? Does it have a good story? Or is it (too) fetch-questy?

I'm looking at this one because it's available with Spanish audio and text whereas other Monster World games only have Spanish text, if that. So the others aren't an option, but feel free to compare this one to the others.

The combat is fun and forgiving enough to allow you to learn the ropes. The fights are pretty epic and when you get the monster right where you want it it feels Soo rewarding. Definitely better in multiplayer but solo is fun too. Also the exploration aspect is amazing in world. They really went all out with the level design. It's a gorgeous game and really makes it feel like you are exploring a new world. They design a lot of the monsters to be semi-docile in that unless you are up in their shit for a while in their territory, or actually attack them, they won't immediately attack you. You can walk around and hide and basically watch the giant dinosaurs go about their day. They walk around, eat, drink, poop, leave footprints and track behind that you collect and use to track the monster. It's its own leveling system where the higher you level up tracking a monster the more you learn about it and the easier it is to track later on. The cameral angles make the monster FEEL epic. The weapon selection is vast and you can do some amazing stuff. Also you get a little cat helper friend that makes constant cat puns and you can outfit them in gear and have different support items. They can then befriend local cats and other wildlife to fight with you so solo mode doesn't have to feel super lonely.
