Wow this one really is like a mixture of MHGU and MHW. There's so much more to do off-hunt than in MHW.

Raise Chris Coons' taxes so that we can have Medicare for All.

Be sure to fully explore your room

Also I didn’t change any settings to make it unlock, so it most likely was just the auth server getting slammed, probably totally fine now

My strategy of playing a bunch of GU before this is paying dividends, instead of being disappointed by the graphics it all looks amazing, and going from GU horn to rise horn is hilarious. Even with the new move set you can still QTAB and that’s all you need.

I am too sleepy to play more than the tutorial, but I like the village area.

Maybe the view is just weird since I was playing handheld for once, but the starter Lance seems like 4 feet longer than my World Lance. :lol:

I'm using the Long Sword for the first time; can I get some advice on timing? It's got a few moves that are pretty counter-based, but I don't understand how to get it right. I can see when I should be using the move, but more often than not, I'm mid-animation and can't just cancel out into a foresight slash or special sheathe+iai spirit slash. If I do it earlier, then, well, I'm too early for the timing window. And I can't just wait for the monster to telegraph a move, because both of those moves have to be follow-ups to an attack. How is this supposed to be done?

The village is just so charming. I've a hard time focusing on working when all I want to do is buy food in-game so I get to hear the catchy song again.

Thanks. Are they as functional as the original? In the last few games you could recruit extra palicoes but your "main palico" was fixed from the start.

Quick question: did they get rid of that dumb poo poo where you couldn't start a mission you hadn't done in a group, you had to do a signal flare after seeing the cutscene? Can you actually co-op the story now?

The story / village quests are 100% solo now, you can’t ever bring help. The Hub is now where all the MP takes place.

A lot of things have happened to me over my life.

I bought a Switch for this game, which makes it the third Nintendo console I've purchased only for Monster Hunter, but my Switch doesn't come in until tomorrow. I can barely wait.

That's good to hear. I hated when me and my friends got MHW and we all had to go play a single player game for hours to get to the place we could play the actual game together.

1. Using the Wirebug while carrying large items feels like it should be illegal.

2. The Argosy menu music is fuckin' jaunty as hell and I love it.

If you finish all the village quests, you can jump right into the high end MP quests without going through the low level ones. Otherwise they're totally separate.

Can you wirebug while carrying eggs? That'd be huge.

Only thing huger would be no egg quests at all.

You can, that's why I said it. You can Wirebug dash out of a big drop from a cliff and give yourself a boost on the ground to avoid any would be small monster attacks.
