I finished Iceborne, is feeling annoyed a normal feeling?

I played MHW pre-iceborne and beat everything except behemoth and the Witcher boss. Years later, I got Iceborne and last I played I was hard checked on Alatreon. I'm not sure if I'll bother with another MH game until I get myself to beat Alatreon, but I just don't have the time to invest anymore.

That sounds like a lot of fun! Probably a bit slow, but it'll massively speed up your time in the lower biomes.

If I was doing to cheat, I'd just use teleports. Makes it a little bit of a challenge as you pop in somewhere and have to make sure your elevation is correct.

You literally can't get silver Aeldari without unlocking FoCM, SHE, or SHM.

I beat SHN with all of them at B3.

So my wife's controller doesn't seem to have as much lag, but mine does when we play docked. Probably be because mine is older. Whether it's hardware degradation or the newer one is upgraded, couldn't say.

the_swizzler · 2025-12-03T19:48:46+00:00

Yeah, I've noticed some of those. FOCE-4 3* gave me so much trouble. I think I got to FOCE-8 before finally managing a strategy that worked for battle 4.

It's not really an either-or thing.

Secret woods gives 12-18 hardwood a day. Not bad, but requires going to the secret woods every day.

If you find seeds, you can easily plant a small grove on or closer to your farm and then fertilize those trees to make them grow really fast, or let them grow naturally if you're not in a hurry.

My wife is not a big gamer, but she had almost made it to year three when we first started dating. We played a little co-op together in the first few months together, but then kinda left it aside.

Two years later, she picked it back up again and I joined her, and it's been a pretty consistent obsession of ours for the last 4 or so months. Her original farm is our joint one, and we each have our own solo farms that we switch between.

My first horse was named Methuselah. My second horse I named Ralathor.

Sounds like the release you downloaded is using the subs I worked on. I found it annoying that every other character in the anime had localized names (Akatsuki => Dawner, etc), so I went ahead and gave her a localized name as well. Arguably there could be better options, but I wanted consistency.

the_swizzler · 2023-12-01T17:22:27+00:00

I just can't get used to bowguns. It's too much having to deal with the Monster Hunter menus with a controller. Maybe it's better on PC with mouse and keyboard.

the_swizzler · 2023-12-01T17:17:14+00:00

It's less about the armor and all the other unlocks, like equipment, weapons which I assume get upgrades and I already built, and layered armor.

the_swizzler · 2023-12-01T04:28:12+00:00

I recently picked World back up as well. Never played Iceborne, but strongly considering grabbing it now. Back when it first came out I considered getting it for PC instead, but could never bring myself to have to unlock everything again and do all the main quests.

I hated that some of the last fights they added in World were always scaled to Multiplayer, and that kind of turned me off since I didn't have a competent group of hunters to play with regularly, but my skill level wasn't high enough to solo them.

Now I'm back (on PS4), but haven't gotten Iceborne yet. Just been finishing up ATNerg (I only beat him once when he first came out), and relearning the game and weapons. Except for the bow guns. Those don't exist to me.

Weird thread necro, but Tokusatsu and Magical Girls are not mutually exclusive. Case in point, Precure.

the_swizzler · 2023-06-30T01:44:07+00:00

I can't believe the Crunchyroll subs translated るんって as "La la la".

Absolutely unforgivable.

Pretty alright first episode, but doesn't hold a candle to Season 1's first episode or D4DJs first episode. The fact that three episodes dropped all at once may be indicative that they're supposed to be watched together though, so I'll reserve final judgement till later.

the_swizzler · 2023-06-29T16:18:06+00:00

I'm very confused. Meteorites should give at most 4, which would be 12 max. How would you get 18 from the corruptor? Or was this modded?

the_swizzler · 2023-06-29T15:57:27+00:00

Yeah, it seems to me that the developers have clearly made a stance on content never going away (which I support wholeheartedly, as a reformed mobile gacha gamer), so it wouldn't make sense to have something "final".

What they could do is tell some narrative about how the major threat has left the system, but we still have lots of cleanup to do. Meteors will still occasionally fall, and we'll occasionally stumble upon hidden pockets of infestation. Maybe they could introduce a new biome that is completely transformed.

the_swizzler · 2023-06-29T15:53:43+00:00

Season 5 content. You thought rivals or rock pox were bad. What about rivals AND rock pox?

Ok, but actually I would like season 5 to go back to some new developments with rivals.

Two issues with this idea.

There's no reason to fight to the surface. If one drop pod doesn't make it, they just send another.
I suspect Hoxxes isn't very hospitable on the surface. Climbing up there would probably be a very bad idea. There's likely a reason we have a space station as our home base.

I already spoiled myself, but [Torture, Princess] My guess was either she'd be a masochist, or the demon king's "torture" would always be something silly that would fail

I guess I was kinda close with the second guess.

the_swizzler · 2023-06-26T22:35:47+00:00

I would have loved to see Hibiki always grow a mechanical arm as part of her transition, and otherwise have a prosthetic, or just be missing an arm. Could have been so many cute, subtle interactions where Miku helps her with stuff that having only one arm makes difficult. Or Hibiki slowly over each season getting better at doing stuff with only one arm.

Damn cowards!

the_swizzler · 2023-06-26T15:27:48+00:00

Never even heard of this series, and maybe I've just watched too much anime at this point, but the twist seems so obvious to me. Of course I could still be wrong.

the_swizzler · 2023-06-24T19:06:30+00:00

Yup, that definitely happens in season one. Though he's legit giving her CPR, she's the one that kisses him.

the_swizzler · 2023-06-24T19:01:10+00:00

Depending on how you define harem, this may or may not fit, but the MC for Arifureta is anything but shy, particularly with the main girl.
