  • No prob, buddy, respond at your leisure!

    Aaah, okay I gotcha now. Man, so you’re a real MH vet! Even got Freedom Unite under your belt. That’s pretty cool honestly! The oldest one I’ve played was MH3U I believe, the one on 3DS. Back then I didn’t give it the time it deserved to properly learn it so I gave up on it. Gave World a chance super late after it released and been hooked since, so I’m trying to make my way backward the best I can. From the MH titles I have played, MHGU is definitely my favorite one, though. I really dig the style of the game, the use of arts, the animations. Still taking some getting used to, weapon control wise. I keep attempting to pull off combos that I can’t, hahah. As I said, it’s really just the sheer amount of quests. It’s got more than any game I’ve played so far, certainly.

    Oh dude, really? ~188 monsters? That’s a massive roster, I love that, and the inclusion of yet another difficulty is amazing. I would love to see that kind of variety in modern MH, that’s insane. And yeah, I heard about those! Wasn’t the Magnet Spike kinda like Gunlance? I’ll have to look up some footage but that’s awesome, and I’m truly hoping that Capcom will bring those back, or something new entirely to the weapon selection in Wilds. I love most of the current weapon choices but I’m itching for something new to use, can’t lie. Both sound like they were exceptionally fun to use though. Thanks for that rec, man!! Most definitely appreciate that.

    Oh, I can believe it! I love that about GU myself, there’s always something new to find out and it blows my mind every time.

    If you do, be sure to let me know! It’s on sale rn and I’m very tempted but I’m on PS5 and still debating if I wanna do that to myself. I’d been keeping up with it since release and they didn’t give it the patches they should’ve.

    Also, love the MH talk, dude! Would love to continue this in DM’s. Maybe we can even team up sometime if you’re on PS5!


  • Heya! I actually haven’t played Frontier! Mostly on account of the fact that I don’t actually have the means to play it, otherwise I would certainly give it a go. From what I’ve heard others say about it, they said its challenge stemmed from having to claw your way through, and it wasn’t comfortable as their hands would cramp lol. Oh really? Variety in quests? Weapons? And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with some anime flair, though tbf, I wouldn’t ever touch God Eater for that very reason. That one is too anime for me.

    I would still try Frontier though. MH has easily become one of my favorite series. I’m still slowly getting through MHGU also but there’s just sooo many quests, holy shit.

    Did you ever try Wild Hearts, btw? Sucks it flopped bc I still to this day wanna try it. Looks so fun but I’ve seen and heard all the things lol.


  • I always struggled getting friends into Monster Hunter, until recently. I still primarily solo everything but I got my one Canadian buddy into it (Rise, he said World was too slow and clunky. I’ll take the win either way), and we hunt together when we have time to. My friends are always like “doesn’t look like my kind of game,” and sure, sometimes you can get an idea of how you’ll like a game from watching gameplay. But they never even attempt to play it to see how it actually feels. They just dismiss it and move on. Feels bad, MH is fun as hell. One day I’ll have a full squad lol.





  • Oh cool enjoy! Would love to know which case ends up your favorite after you’ve finished! And I’m very excited to get the HD Apollo Justice collection coming out! Thought it would never happen.

    I’m liking it a lot so far. Took me a bit to adjust to the controls but it feels perfectly fine now. Difficulty seems just right and the boss fights I’ve had so far are honestly pretty fun. Menu navigation can be a little janky though.

    I think if you’re into the whole rogue-lite thing you should give it a try! You’re playing Nioh (one of my favorite PS titles), so I think you’ll enjoy it. There’s compendiums for what you pick up that update with each run you make. Weapons, relics, items, etc. There’s upgrades for the protagonist, which help with future runs. There’s cosmetic incentive to beat the game under certain conditions. Don’t want to give away too much but, I think it’s worth a try for sure.

    And Rise, yeah! I got Sunbreak super late so all the updated content is just there at once so I’m slowly trying to make my way through it. Trying to get a set together before going to fight Velkhana and Amatsu. I remember Velkhana giving me a very hard time in Iceborne, hoping for a better hunt this time around.







  • im playing that too, and i would say the same. i love it so far. the voice acting is wonderful, the music and the storytelling is top notch as well. but something about it gives me this strange feeling i can’t quite place. first it was that feeling that i couldn’t believe it was here and i was playing it. it felt like a dream for a good bit. but as I’ve played more idk what it is. idk if it’s the pacing, or the lack of an overworld, or what. i can’t tell if it’s good or bad either way though.
