Gotta say I'm not having fun with this game. I've been playing Generations Ultimate a lot more tbh. The variety in that game is insane.

Someone call me when it can run higher than 30 FPS, has a proper, configurable control scheme, and also

I fucking hate that the Switch became associated with soyboys because of that one picture. I may be a developmentally-challenged manchild but I'd rather be thought of as that than an effeminate lefty faggot

I've picked up the longsword. Holy shit, it's good! I dunno if it's OP and I suck or if I've gotten better at this, but I've been killing shit easy peasy now.
Tried the dual blades too, as they reminded me of the daggers from Dragon's Dogma, but without being able to position myself on top of some monster's asshole and shredding it, they're not the same.

LS was a beginner friendly weapon that was put in back in MH2/MHF2, so if you've been working with weapons that are less intuitive that may account for your improvement. They are also actually quite good, being near top-tier in almost every iteration of the series, I think, or at the very least upper tier. Kinda like HBG or CB, where they both place pretty high if not top of the tiers.

I also experience similar gaps of skill any time I play lance or CB for a while and go back to LS, it just clicks more for me than any other weapon. Though I may give sword and shield a try, arena grinding for my Divine Slasher gave me an appreciation for the new SnS.

It's as they say: All effeminate lefty faggots are developmentally-challenged manchildren, but not all developmentally-challenged manchildren are effeminate lefty faggots.

The Autumn Harvest Festival starts October 4th/5th for the PC (Kulve Taroth is just around the corner):

http://monsterhunterworld.com/pc/us/topics/festival/
http://game.capcom.com/world/steam/us/schedule.html

Unfortunately, the Tokyo Game Show didn't unveil any major content updates last week. Among the minor updates given, consoles will soon receive event quests for Arch-Tempered Lunastra and Arch-Tempered Zorah Magdaros (lol), as well as another Horizon Zero Dawn event quest for the PS4 (dual tempered Deviljho).

Too late, Monster Hunter lost me. It was a great run and I ended beating a bunch of tempered monsters, but the trickle isn't enough for me. :negative:

It's not just the one picture, rest assured.

I was almost That Guy when I was on a plane a few weeks ago but I decided I didn't want to be an autist in public and just read a book instead. Still, isn't this photo the one that started it all?

Anyways on the MH topic, I'm in the same boat as Blaine. It's bad enough waiting for more monsters on the console version, nevermind waiting for PC to get to parity with the consoles, so I've put the game down for now and am working on Dragon Quest XI, which is a fine game but not exactly the same genre as MH

Fuck that. I'd been away from Monster Hunter for a long damn time. That'd be like getting into a romantic relationship after a months-long dry spell and then telling her we need to take it real slow and traditional-like.

Shawn Layden Confirms There Are No Plans for PlayStation Experience 2018

Which means no G-expansion news this year. Probably E32019.
Either way no ps experience this year also means that chance of e3 2019 having next gen consoles also increased.

Yeah, shame about it 'cause the game is in dire need of more monsters and areas. Would be great to see Tigrex showing up in a snow zone. :bounce:

Anyway, we should get MH related news after DMC5 is out of the way. By then, it'll be 2019 and right on time for a new MH entry, considering it's an annual series in Japan.

Well if there is no G-expansion news this year then clearly they will not release G-expansion at start of next year.

It is reasonable to assume that if they will wait till E3 2019 then there is good chance MHW2 will be announced instead of MHW Ultimate with release either fall2019 or january-march 2020.

That didn't take long, Xeno'jiiva went down like a little bitch.

It goes beyond the ugliness, she's fucking Navi 2.0.

Hello, partner, have you come seeking the light?

Anyway, I've finally had time to sink into the game, reached the second zone. I'm liking it a bit better than 4U since the two maps I've seen so far aren't cancer and the slanted terrain is actually useful to launch aerial attacks instead of being a mere nuisance.

I'm digging the way the Charge Blade keeps the energy stored in the shield even after delivering a super amped element discharge, it was annoying when you missed a hit and depleted the whole thing. Speaking of charges, don't remember being able to power up the sword in SnS mode although it doesn't seem very useful...

Does anyone else get annoyed by these scoutflies? Even when you've got nothing marked in your map, they keep flying to the nearest resource spot, can't even appreciate the maps. Found a mod on the Nexus to disable 'em but it contains a dll file and I'm always wary of these.
