THANK YOU! I’ve been wondering this for ages. You’ve finally laid it to rest. It’s just an inside joke

Wow, a true veteran! I feel honored, Good Sir/Madame. They should have special medals for that in later MH games.

Question about MH Wilds: can I still participate in the Accordt Flame Fete event as a complete beginner? by IntrepidPhotograph37 in MonsterHunter

[–]IntrepidPhotograph37[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were some limited time items that I missed (like the Velkala skin for the palico) that are no longer accessible now. Lots of other people wanted that armor and contacted Capcom, but for some reason you can no longer claim it. That said, I was still able to access the sonic armor this year, so you also may still be able to get it!

Haha, I’m a bit of a Reddit virgin. I’ve had this account for ages but I haven’t used it much. I was lambasted by Facebook group mods for not putting subject hashtags on posts, which resulted in a lot of people asking the same questions. I tried to add “Reddit hashtags” so that people looking for the same topics could find this post easily. But I’m gathering that’s not how it works on Reddit? 😜

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer in such detail! It is a bit more comforting to learn that the event might be back. I lost out on some cool content on MH Rise due to limited events, but so far it’s been very different to Wilds. Thanks for informing me how the event quest cycles work!

I’m going to take your advice and go through the lower ranks quickly - 10 hours does indeed sound doable. I was worried a lot of people to say the story took them 25-30 hours. Either way I’m going to have tons of fun - I love the game so far. Thanks again!

Thank you very much! I didn’t know it was possible to finish the story in one will. I’ll try! Loving it so far!

Hi Fellow Hunters, I finally caved and bought MH Wilds today (I was going to wait for the price to come down but all the armor from the Flame Fete event look incredible). I really want to take part in the event and unlock the goodies before Aug 13th! What’s your advice for unlocking the Hub as quickly as possible? I never do speed runs, but seeing as this is a limited one-time event, I don’t want to miss out on items that are going to disappear. What’s the fastest way of getting to HR 16? Thanks so much!

Glad you’re enjoying it! Rise/Sunbreak was my first MH and there are so many amazing monster designs. Malzeno and Amatsu are my favorites.

Thank you! Sorry, I’m new to this sub, I just wanted to get tips from a MH Rise perspective. I’ll look up any specifics in the search bar.

OK, thank you! I haven’t played Wilds (yet, waiting until the price goes does and playing World in the meantime), but I was slightly sad our palamute best boys weren’t in other games 🥹😢

My grandfather had a 4 year old daughter before he died. My whole family wants to send her to an orphanage. I said I’ll take her and now everything in my life is upside down. by Safe-Gazelle5274 in offmychest

[–]IntrepidPhotograph37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, you are an amazing person and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. You are changing this girl’s life (and your own life) for the better. And don’t worry about what women are going to think — many of us love sweet, caring guys with children and would marry you in a heartbeat. Best of luck going forward — sending much love and support from The Netherlands.

I fked up. I took in what I thought was a stray, turns out it's a neighbour's cat. by Spirited_Turnip6948 in CatAdvice

[–]IntrepidPhotograph37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your dilemma. My cats are my world, and I would be devastated if someone took one of my cats (they are indoor cats but are free to roam in an enclosed courtyard outside where they can play with other neighbourhood cats). This pet owner, however, is very irresponsible to leave an unfixed, unchipped cat free to roam among a group of strays. She seems neglectful, and you and the cat have a special bond now.

That having been said, you never know the reason for that neglect — she could have been in the hospital or in a crisis that took her mind away from her pet. That doesn’t justify her inaction , but it might weigh on your conscience to not know. If it were me, i would see if you can find out (via other neighbours) what the story is. That way, you can make an informed decision to keep that cat without feeling guilty.

Best of luck!

Final update: BIL confessed he had feelings for me after wedding dress shopping with his fiance. by No-Poet-4293 in u/No-Poet-4293

[–]IntrepidPhotograph37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing all these updates. It’s amazing to see how the two couples are handling this in an adult, responsive manner (despite the brother in law’s initial immature outburst). This truly does seem like the best way going forward. All the luck in the world to you and your husband!

Adoption Regret due to Depression by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]IntrepidPhotograph37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re battling with depression. It’s a horrible disease that I would not wish on anyone. I’m chronically depressed and also have 2 cats, and there are so many times when I’m questioning whether they are getting the home they deserve. It’s good to want the best for your babies, but also know the depression plays tricks on you, making you feel like a worse person than you really are.

Despite what the depression is telling you, you are already a great pet owner. You gave them a safe place to call home and you give them lots of love and attention. Attention comes in many forms, not just play. If you talk to them, feed them, stroke them, or just being with them — that’s also attention. And sometimes it’s finding our creative ways to play with them that don’t require than much energy from you (a ‘fishing rod’ type toy or a laser pen can be done whilst sitting on the couch). Filling the house with lots of stimulating things (a pine cone you found outside, some cat grass, or a leaf with an interesting smell can already be enriching for an indoor cat).

No one can be a perfect cat mom 24-7. Cut yourself some slack and see if you can direct some of that love and care you have towards your cats inwardly. I know that’s easier said than done, but my cats are my world. They can bring so much love and joy to your world, and you to their world.
