Storywise, the perfect palate cleanser after the world-ending Shadowbringers and Endwalker.
Gameplay-wise, Yoshi-P mentioned things ended up becoming a bit too easy in EW, and now even dungeon bosses have some teeth to them, god bless.
However, Sadu didn't show up in the MSQ so it's only a 9.5/10.

I have around 500h (and the platinum trophy) in the PS4 version and the regular reviews talking how good this game is and how it's an amazing entry point for newcomers, so I'll focus on the PS4-to-PC experience:

+ Most console ports are a bit lazy when they introduce mouse+keyboard inputs and MHW is NOT in that category. Menus can be navigated with your mouse and you can click everything, it's fantastic. There's also a new mmo-like item toolbar that helps mkb players even more.
+ Even though my PC is under the minimum system requirements, I still decided to give it a shot. It actually runs pretty well, 30fps with a few stutters when there's too many particle effects on the screen, so I can't complain about the performance.
+ The new load times are fantastic. I spent hours watching the game load on the PS4 and now I can barely read the tips on the screen, I can get into quests in less than five seconds.
+/- The online system is the same as the PS4, so if you don't know the workarounds to play story quests (enter quest, watch cutscenes then tell your friends to join), you'll suffer a bit. Occasional disconnects happen when Steam hiccups, though. Not great, but so far it has happened to me only once. The upside is that it's easier than ever to join your friend's sessions and guilds are now Steam Groups, so joining other people is easier than ever. On PS4 I had to message my friends and make sure everyone is in the same page before playing, on PC I can just hop on a lobby and do some quests with people on my friend's list.

I still strongly recommend the game. Despite the online interface and some menus being still a bit below the industry standard for online play, this is still a fantastic game with hundreds of hours of content. Happy hunting!
