This game presents us with the most historically inaccurate depiction of the discovery of America to date. Not because of the giant dragons, but because the colonizers are willing to leave once they finish exploring the new world.

I spent the last couple of weeks working through this to beat all monsters (not including their tempered or arch-tempered versions).
I finally beat Fatalis and am working through Rise (similar situation!) before Wilds comes out :D

Despite its numerous flaws and faults - mechanically and otherwise - there is something oddly compelling about this that keeps me returning to it every day. Sure the monsters just kinda don't fight back, and sure the quest design is wonky and weird, and sure the way to play offline is the most batshit way ever, but there's something kinda...nice, …

Sure the monsters just kinda don't fight back, and sure the quest design is wonky and weird, and sure the way to play offline is the most batshit way ever, but there's something kinda...nice, about how awful it is? It's cozy. Even in light of all its problems, I'm having a surprisingly entertaining time, kinda like how you enjoy a bad movie.

I said this the other day but it is ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE that the only way to play this offline is to start an online session, have it fail because I don't have the ability to play online, and then have it continue in offline mode. That's just such shitty game design.

Sooo....I'm fucked, yeah? Go to continue playing, and it says I can only play online? Load my save data and it gives me three options "search for online session", "create online session" and "create/search for a squad session". I don't want any of these. I just wanna keep playing my campaign. The actual fuck. WHO DESIGNED THIS MESS OF A …

The saving grace to this game is that it's from 2018, so it plays kind of old, and that's the stuff I love the most. Simplistic combat and just general wonkiness. That's definitely keeping me going. But it's by no means the souls-esque monster boss rush that everyone made it out to be.

One of the most confusing disconnects for me is the stuff the community says about how to play the game and then the game itself in how it plays.
For example, I'll read thread after thread or watch youtube video after youtube video in which people claim, rather adamently might I add, "you have to watch the monsters move patterns! …

For example, I'll read thread after thread or watch youtube video after youtube video in which people claim, rather adamently might I add, "you have to watch the monsters move patterns! don't just jump in and attack nonstop! it doesn't work!"
But it absolutely does. In fact, from what I can tell from what I've encountered, the monsters don't even have move patterns. They just...stand there, and occasionally lunge at you. There's no real strategy to either the monster or the player during a fight. It's just attack as much as possible and hope the other one dies first.
It's so strange to find the community so passionate about the "proper" way to play something, when literally it doesn't exist in the way they're claiming it to. I just run up to something, hit stab a million times, and eventually it goes down. I rarely have to dodge, I rarely get hit. The monster just....just fucking stands there, like it's waiting for its bus.
Wild.

Wow. This is....awful. This is exactly what I feared it might be. Maybe it's just me, I don't fucking understand Japanese games, but holy cow. I took a chance and instantly regret my decision. I suppose if you really enjoy item management and a million menus, it might be for you, but jeezum crow, this is brutally boring.

The Monster Hunter movie recently uploaded to Netflix is A LOT better than the one starring Milla Jovovich... but still not a good filme.
The animation looks like a late PlayStation 2 cutscene and the edition is really choppy. Is also extremely short and doesn't even try to explain this world to casual audiences. But if you're a fan of …
The Monster Hunter movie recently uploaded to Netflix is A LOT better than the one starring Milla Jovovich... but still not a good filme.
The animation looks like a late PlayStation 2 cutscene and the edition is really choppy. Is also extremely short and doesn't even try to explain this world to casual audiences. But if you're a fan of Monster Hunter, you'll probably enjoy the action scenes (with moves faithful to the games) and the amount of references.
You can read my review in spanish here.
As usual, the best part is the cat.

I’m having troubles getting really into this game. Any tips on how to approach it as a beginner who never played a MH game before? It always seemed so cool, but the first fights seem to take very long to beat, even if you obviously start out weak. Guess trial&erroring like a Dark Souls/Nioh title isn’t the same way to …
