    I don't know why Monster Hunter lets you choose which items you want to keep at the end of a hunt

    The items should just be displayed there, and the cursor should default to the take all button
    Some people like selling trash that they don't want, I guess? It's a relic from when the game used to have limited stash space, so you could run into situations where your stash can be full if you haven't upgraded it.

    Monster Hunter is a game for people who wish the corpse run to the boss in Dark Souls were just a bit shorter and had almost no enemies, and wish the weapons were bigger and slower

    Everyone on twitter is like "MH: Rise has 0 onboarding for new people and it's real complicated." and I have heard from the giantbomb crew that MH:World actually does a decent job of onboarding new players

    and then you guys are all "No the opposite of all of that is true" and maybe I'll just go boot up Peace Walker and fight the Rathalos in there.
    When it comes to anything on Twitter, you can safely ignore it. Twitter is what you post when you are taking a shit while not giving a shit about thinking about what you want to post.

    You should think about the game as a rudimentary fighting game. You can spam the Strong Attack button repeatedly and get through most of the fights if you wanted. Later, you may figure out how to use a Hadoken, and then just start using that over and over again, and it's still fine. All of the complexity of the game comes from learning new things and applying them. There's enough new stuff in Rise for the vets, but solid hunting skills pretty much boil down to "press this button to attack, get out of the way or block incoming attacks".

    also unlike a lot of fighting games cancels are extremely limited

    so the combat is a lot like a Dark Souls game really in that every move feels like it has weight and timing and impact because once you start that swing you aren't stopping

    Monster Hunter is funny because you beat the first, easiest monster in the game and the town rejoices in your bravery and skill.

    Even the guy in the back wearing an arena award armor set meaning he's downed some high tier threats and the lady over there decked out in the furs of a beast you ran away from.

    Yes.

    Actually Monster Hunter is for people who barely beat a Dark Souls boss and think "fuck, I want to fight him again right away so I can do this properly"

    This is 100% me. I can't play Bloodborne or Dark Souls or any of that "everything kills you" stuff but like this. It's like fishing. I can fight a monster for like 20 minutes solo and be so close and then something goes wrong, but I've only lost 30 minutes and can restart and try again with different bait and tackle.

    And like Dark Souls, Monster Hunter has gotten easier over time and with future iterations, as they realize "Fuck, people are having a lot of trouble actually reaching endgame content".

    The main difference, actually, is that Monster Hunter is built from the ground-up as a cooperative game, where you get together with 3 friends and fuck shit up. They make it easy for you to gather together with people and go on quests together, and the whole gameplay loop accommodates this. Dark Souls is... not.

    i have to work tonight- which i very much do not want to do. so i'm pooping forever while phone browsing, and i just don't want to get off the toilet. i know that's the first step in showering and getting dressed and beginning the Work Sequence. so i was on the toilet for i don't know how long and when i finally stood up my legs kind of gave out and i almost smacked my head on the sink.

    you all could have lost me just now, because of pooping inertia.

    I've spent all morning doing Canadian taxes, and a portion of it was spent frantically going over numbers before deciding I probably found a bug in the software.

    I've messaged them, but that's always the worst message to make: "Hi yes I have a problem, I think you fucked up, yes I know that this is basically the case 0% of the time because it's always some ignorant person making a mistake and blaming others but please listen to me specifically, thank you"

    it's been five years and I do the same dance every time

    1] I can do my own taxes this year!
    2] *several hours later* "What is your mother's maiden name?" What's her first name? I just knew her as "Ma"! That'll have to do.
    3] I admit defeat and just make an appointment with someone in H&R block

    The eleven intervening months are spent giving some serious side-eye to the claims that Canada is a modern nation.

    Summary I'm only speaking for myself, a few of my friends, two of my uncles, my father, and some co-workers but I think most straight white guys in our age bracket and older fucked up the whole "first dance" thing.

    Don't be too hard on yourself.

    edit: I blame the schools. I'd have loved a fucking dance class instead of indoor volleyball when it was raining cause the state champion girls team needed the practice time.
