What is the appeal of Monster Hunter games? (sh.itjust.works)

While researching good PSP games to play I found many posts about Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and other Monster Hunter games. They are beloved by the community but after doing some reading/watching it's not clear to me what the appeal is. I would appreciate if someone could tell what the goal is and what you love about the game. Apparently they are very long games (I think I read 100 hours or something along those lines) which is really great if I can get into a single game for that long. Thank you!

I picked up Monster Hunter World after seeing a bunch of cooking memes from it on Imgur. I liked the game okay, but I am much more into a game that I target a mob and attack it. It used a play style I was not used to. It took a lot of time to really get into it. A couple friends of mine play it some too and I always enjoy playing games with friends.

I doubt I will get another version of the game. But those friends are talking about buying it for me so I will play with them.
