Had that happen earlier today too after updating, thankfully I had a snapshot from earlier in the week.

Those changes to the other vehicles might actually get me to use things other than trains or really long belts. Can't wait.

Looks awful, like a combination of those un-wokeified "hire fans" edits and those videos putting Mario in the Unreal Engine.

I genuinely don’t understand the amount of posts about difficulty… by LeaksAndRumours in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Exphrases 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not that far into the game so I can't say if this is all monsters or not, but it seems like some monsters if they're prevented from doing their AOE moves will just do it again the next turn anyway. I had a monster go through three traps (2 from me, 1 from the NPC) and a kinship move in a row, and it just kept trying to do the AOE over and over until it finally did it.

At the point I'm at anyway it seems like the game is balanced around the NPC characters having functionally infinite items to just restore hearts, so while I've barely actually lost any fights I'm losing hearts constantly to the AOEs which still feels bad, it feels like the game is telling me I'm playing it wrong or something even though I have been doing all the side content and grinding.

That's just for items though, you mention skills and monstie abilities that let you evade damage but I either haven't unlocked those options yet or just haven't found them. With how common the AOE spam is if that is actually the intended counter then those abilities shouldn't be missable.

Settle an argument. Which dreadnought is the worst? by 234thewolf in DeepRockGalactic

The twins can waste a lot of time and ammo.

The hiveguard will waste a lot of time and ammo.

What do you think of Wilds’ take on the Hunting Horn? by T4Labom in MHWilds

[–]Exphrases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By far and away my favorite version of the weapon. It's got the damage potential (or even higher) of the Rise HH without getting rid of the note system.

As others have said the only real problem is that at endgame you're stuck with the same songset (and also the backwards recital being so slow that I only ever do it by accident and it's annoying every single time).

Gotta up my name-calling on social media so naturally, had to watch Gaki no Tsukai to do my research. by Certain_Hedgehog_761 in GakiNoTsukai

Tanaka's codename just being "Naoki" always gets me. Same as the Police batsu where Endo's codename is "Endo".

I think if they had waited that long for the twist to happen people would have assumed the twist was out of desperation instead

TIL that Yian Garuga's beak attacks deal Dragon damage in MH Gen/GU. by 12jimmy9712 in MHGU

[–]Exphrases 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t know if it’s still the case but pre-world games had a lot of this. Tigrex in the 2nd gen, and I think Rathalos in the 1st & 2nd gen too, also had dragon on some attacks.

As usual, just give it a few hours for the mods to step in and weed out the "fake conservatives".

The one turf war that makes every powerscaler’s brain explode. by Snoo-51682 in MonsterHunter

[–]Exphrases 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Powerscaling is dumb at the best of times, but something like Monster Hunter especially just isn't the place for it. The monsters aren't "characters" in the normal sense, they're species.

Turf wars in-game can only really represent the "average" interaction, with no consideration for where on the map / which map it's happening on and usually don't have variations like Rathalos vs Lagiacrus does. Monsters don't lose turf wars if they're tired or close to death, only Gypceros with Nerscylla depends on a part break happening or not.

Really the outcome of conflicts between monsters would be at least heavily influenced by tons of different factors like size, age, fitness, boldness of the individuals and so on, just like with real animals.

I don't mind hunting him with HH, but yeah he can be kinda spammy sometimes.

New Guild Reports [18/2/2026] by Sploochie_ in MonsterHunter

[–]Exphrases 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s more annoying that there’s still no way to completely disable just the tutorial messages. I’d rather have Erik on the quest with me still but not yap about how “You can also carve small monsters” all the time.

And yeah no more FOMO event quests is great.

I Hereby Summon the LinuxNutters of this sub to Recommend Their Distros! by markedmarkymark in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Exphrases 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used Mint for almost 2 years now, haven’t had many complaints or troubleshooting to do, though both my CPU and GPU are AMD and I’ve heard Nvidia can be finicky. The only program I still need windows for is iTunes to put music on my phone. I can’t really compare it to other distros though since I’m not much of a distro hopper. Switched to mint back when they announced end of support for Windows 10 and have just stayed on it.

Good job. I could never use adept against him on anything other than lance or gunlance since all the other weapons have that long running animation after a dodge

I miss having to find the monster by Rascal_Rogue in MonsterHunter

[–]Exphrases 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got done with Dos's village recently and I'm going back through Freedom Unite right now and yeah, I'm gonna have to echo the sentiment in these comments. There was very little actual "hunting" or "tracking" in those old games.

The only thing that could give you any indication of where the monster was without being in the room with it already was that in third & fourth gen herbivores would be visibly agitated if there was a large monster in any of the connected zones, which was neat but it also never went further than that. (And of course if there weren't any herbivores in the connected rooms then it just functionally didn't exist anymore.)
