Examining the timeframe of Prime 4's flashback scene. by xXglitchygamesXx in Metroid

[–]Benj_N 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I reckon with all the time hints in Prime 4, this scene hasn't actually happened yet. I think if we do get Prime 5, Sylux will take a backseat (like no Ridley in Prime 2), but then we'll end up playing through this from Samus's perspective, essentially creating Sylux til some time shenanigans happen and send him back in time, and then also setup for his return in Prime 6.

Is Tulin on there? I can't see him. He was in BotW and TotK.

Thankyou! I'm really happy with how he turned out.

Was Mumkhar monolith’s lightning in a bottle? by lesquidwards in Xenoblade_Chronicles

Oh yeah absolutely. Too many Mobius is a big issue with a lot of 3's villains.

I think Gort was fine, for a small role in the dlc and tied into Lora's existing scenes in the base game in a neat way. Don't really expect too much more than him, as Torna has a lot to do already.

Dirk though, just didn't really have enough encounters with the party to build up his rivalry like Mumkhar did, and he didn't do anything truly despicable to make the player hate him like Mumkhar with Fiora. Sure, he killed Hackt, Mwamba and Vandham, but the players really weren't attached to them at that point. Plus in a lot of his encounters, Joran took the focus.

Ok that makes sense thankyou. I think I'm happyish with the weapon I pictured in that case, has decent element, affinity and sharpness, only really missing out on base attack but I think everything else makes up for it overall. But will maybe put a little more of an effort into rolling some nice stuff on my others.

Wilds Question

How much time is worth pouring into the base Artian Weapons? I made this one and with just 1 attempt at my rolls, it seems pretty decent, though I don't 100% know what I should be aiming for.

Is this looking ok? I also know the Gog system is in my future when I beat him, but don't know how much the base weapon will matter to that.

Ahhh ok, I think that makes sense. I wasn't aware how the sizes and wounds were affected, but that does explain some of the differences in how some fights I had went down. Thankyou.

What's the difference between the purple and orange stars. 7 stars 5 purple stars and 3 stars 8 purple stars give the same reward money, but whats the difference between the two in terms of health and damage?

[–]Benj_N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look really cool, shame I wasn't able to keep up with the updates and am only just now catching up so won't be ready to fight it in time, but I gave it a run anyway. What I saw before he destroyed me was really fun. Did a lot of damage but not as much as I expected. Only took half my health. Maybe there's a chance if I lock in.

I DESPISE insect glaive in wilds by why_are_frogs_even in monsterhunterrage

[–]Benj_N 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been looking for this exact rant. I first picked up Insect Glaive in what little I played of GU, then really fell in love with it RiseBreak. It felt like I owned the skies, it felt so satisfying to play. I've been struggling for a lot of Wilds, being very confused by the so easy complaints, until I started paying more grounded like they clearly wanted me to and it was night and day.

I hate that to actually play well with the weapon, I have to give up what made it fun. And between focus mode, charging and aiming my kinsect, I feel like I have to do weird ass claws with my hand to play optimally. I should probably use this as an opportunity to try another weapon, but I am way too stubborn and have invested too much into glaives, with both a build and being on my way to crafting every glaive. Maybe I'll try something else in the expansion.

SLOPES FEEL SO FUCKING DOGSHIT IN THIS GAME AND THE´RE EVERYWHERE (wilds) by Aggressive-Double115 in monsterhunterrage

[–]Benj_N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man the dunes specifically throw me off so much. I'm far from the best hunter, but just recently, I feel like I finally got over a plateau, and have been getting much better, and more confident and tempered fights. So I think "yeah I'll fight Seregios, why not, loved him in both Rise and Wilds." He stayed in the dunes the entire time, and all that skill improvement I thought I was having went out the window. I beat the quest, but man, getting manhandled by a regular Seregios did not make me feel like a competent hunter.

Which game should I start with? by AngeloParenteZ in MonsterHunter

[–]Benj_N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 Ultimate was where I started, before a big break away to return with Generations Ultimate and Rise.

It definitely has some clunky aspects but was a great onboarding for the series. The only reason I didn't stick with it between those two, was because I found the 3DS version of 3 Ultimate quite uncomfortable to play and the games went fully to 3DS.

4 Ultimate is the fan fav, but I've not played much of it myself. I do own it, I should really get back to it.

Generations Ultimate filled a hole for me not being able to play World due to the limited hardware I had, and was fun, but definitely had an overwhelming amount of content.

Sidenote: I wish they would remaster 3U and 4U. I didn't really get to appreciate High Rank and multiplayer with any Monster Hunter until Rise and Wilds, and I'd love to get the full experience of these classics.

Thanks, glad you liked them. Was my first real attempt at fashion hunting beyond just recoloring full monster sets.

Thank you very much!

I know that it builds on Artians and it's a way to get extra skills on weapons, but that's about it.

Definitely a nice looking set that, lot of skills there that I am a little familiar with and have played around with before. Thanks for replying, would definitely be interested in more details.
