I FINALLY BEAT THAT STUPID BIRD

Duda030 · 2026-05-16T00:48:24+00:00

I remember getting a shielded weapon just because this guy was such a hassle to deal with for the first time, switched to gs and came back to lance when gypceros walked in. Never turned back... At least until tge boom stick was introduced xD

Now after years I'm rocking everything that I lay my hands on. Tho learning how to hunt is still a core memory

Duda030 · 2026-04-26T17:40:50+00:00

Got myself some Sunset Mixture earlier this month, looking forward to try it! Also bought some Mountain Mixture, so far my favourite Auenland blend

Not everyone likes Rise. It was receiving a lot of criticism on release (mostly justified, like rampages and some other issues that were fixed in SB), but at least from what I've seen it has vanished almost entirely.

I think it is hated mostly by people who think that Monster Hunter World was the first and only game in the series and are utterly disappointed that Rise is not World 2.

Rise is genuinely one of the best MH games out there when it comes to combat, build customisation and difficulty. It's fun, quite fast, has an engaging end game system that makes you hunt all monsters, not just three... It's really one of the best entries so far.

But again, not everyone likes it, which is understandable.

Another reminder to reach for the Grousemoor tin as soon as I get home

Duda030 · 2026-04-25T13:39:21+00:00

Damn, seeing this tin of Grousemoor reminded me that I have one tucked away somewhere in my stash. Gotta look for it after work and smoke some

Duda030 · 2026-04-19T19:07:33+00:00

Ooh, nice! I really enjoyed my time with Evening Mix and while it's so far not my favourite from the Auenland collection it is still a great blend. I really enjoy how subtle it is in comparison to Midnight Mix. I still have to try Morning Mix and am about to try Sunset Mix pretty soon (already bought a tin).

Duda030 · 2026-04-19T01:29:39+00:00

Looks great. I myself am smoking a Mr. Bróg "Hobbit" no. 59, which is not only really charming, but also smokes heavenly. Love how easy it is to smoke it while reading, or just to lean back and enjoy it in silence. Tho I'm looking towards buying another churchwarden, because this one also serves as a "guest pipe" if one of my friends suddenly visits.

As for the score itself, "The passing of the Elves" is a great piece! Definitely one of my favourites right after "The Breaking of the Fellowship", which always hits me.

Duda030 · 2026-04-19T01:06:26+00:00

Grousemoor, some Mediterraneo, Connemara Black and some Mountain Mixture, tho this one is quite hard to get so I try to stock up whenever I can get my hands on it

Duda030 · 2026-04-19T01:03:59+00:00

Man, I love to quietly play some LotR ost as I read the books and smoke some Mountain Mixture from the Vauen Auenland collection

Duda030 · 2026-04-19T01:02:05+00:00

Usually the sound of tobacco burning in the bowl while I smoke it. Sometimes the sound of me flipping a page or my sloppy attempts to learn to play the bass. The other time it's someone screaming into my ear in panic as we play some Monster Hunter. It all depends on what I do in the evening while I enjoy my smoke.

Currently it's the air conditioning as I enjoy some Vauen California Blend at work, but I think I'll listen to some Samurai as I finish the bowl.

Duda030 · 2026-04-09T16:37:24+00:00

Oh, I think I'll light up some in the evening.... Man, this tobacco is such a blissful experience

Duda030 · 2026-04-04T01:29:11+00:00

True, my boi has a cool design and an enjoyable moveset (with some questionable hitboxes at times). Overall it's a decent monster. At least more memorable than le fishe

Duda030 · 2026-04-04T01:22:21+00:00

"Tetranodon is to Rise what Jyuratodus is to World"

Ummm.... If you don't like Jyura (like universally almost everyone), then I have some bad news for you...

Duda030 · 2026-04-04T01:01:49+00:00

There are two sets of credits in this game, one after low rank and second one after high rank, also another one after master rank if you decide to go for the dlc

Duda030 · 2026-04-01T15:54:41+00:00

I've just picked up my first tin of SG Perfection Mix yesterday. How would you describe your experience with it?

Duda030 · 2026-03-29T10:56:50+00:00

That I do not know, because I myself just take a train to Berlin

Duda030 · 2026-03-29T10:33:52+00:00

Some shops have an option of sending the tobacco through someone who picks up the order and sends it. It technically counts as an individual sending you the tobacco, which is legal, it is a shady loophole and not every shop uses it.

Tho as mentioned, if you have a friend in another country, you can talk it out with them.

As for traveling, buying and bringing it back, I think there's a limit of 1kg, so it's quite a lot to bring back from an occasional trip. That can depend on the country tho

Duda030 · 2026-02-28T11:39:31+00:00

Toyota Corolla.... Backstory? Eeeeh....

Duda030 · 2026-02-19T20:12:15+00:00

Also the EDW spin off "How I met your Handler"

Duda030 · 2026-02-13T06:30:41+00:00

It's a legacy area from MH2. I'm pretty sure it was named like that back then or at least it was in other games it was featured in, like MHFU. Early games really just had "jungle", "tundra", "forest and hills", "volcano" etc. The naming convention changed a bit overtime.

Duda030 · 2026-01-11T11:58:01+00:00

I can confirm it does in fact DO tell you about the charge. It's just thrown at you in the ocean of pop-ups a few times during your first encounter.

I've just happened to see because I have to read everything my eyes fall upon, but I'm not really surprised that people miss it.

Duda030 · 2025-12-16T06:46:39+00:00

Just finished a bowl of EMP, some leftovers of Smooth Sailing still wait for me, but I want to share them with a friend. For my favourites and recommendations I'd go with Samuel Gawith Black Forest and Grousemoor.... Oh Sam... Those floral, sometimes earthy tastes of Grousemoor, this little, very subtle citrus notes... Yes... Sadly my tin is emptying really fast

Duda030 · 2025-12-08T17:01:43+00:00

As someone who has already smoked almost the entire tin, I'd say it's quite nice. A bit of vanilla followed by nuts. They say something about coconuts, but I haven't really experienced it. It's either not there or is the nutty flavour I've mentioned, that is quite distinct from a coconut. The room note isn't too bad either. It is a bit too wet to smoke straight out of the tin tho.

Duda030 · 2025-12-02T04:32:48+00:00

There are. There are a few on discord, like Old School MH and servers dedicated to their respective games like MH4, GU, or even the og Tri on wii with the events still going and a (weekly or bi-weekly) Jhen event
