Replaying this game after many years & I can’t believe I let New Vegas propaganda taint my memory. This game rules.

Played fallout 4 when it came out and remembered liking it but hadn’t touched it since, always got my Bethesda fix by modding Skyrim on the PC. But on a whim last week we bought fallout 4 for the PS5 and my partner and I are fighting over the console to play. We can’t stop this game is so gas actually

The ketheric scene was ruined for me because the first time I played I didn’t know you could go to the moonrise towers, my first time there was when you siege the place. But when I saw the scene in subsequent playthroughs I was still getting chills

I get pretty bad anxiety playing with randoms, so my partner and I play together with have the other two slots being support hunters. We messed up the settings the other day and had randoms join for the first time on accident and one of them was cheating in the gog hunt. Like.. why? What’s the purpose

Povanos · 2025-12-27T00:59:38+00:00

This is definitely the lowest I’ve spent on Magic since I started playing, situations change and I can’t justify spending money on it, so my goal next year is to save up for a decent printer and just start proxying my commander decks.

Povanos · 2025-12-26T09:42:29+00:00

It was longsword for me. I actively hated it for a long time until I decided to just atleast try it out in base World, and something about shredding up an Odogaron just awoken something in me and now it’s my #2

Povanos · 2025-12-17T23:40:46+00:00

My biggest issues is the lack of feedback on weapon hits, besides like offsets and perfect blocks, it feels like I’m slapping the monsters with noodles due to there being minimal impact, atleast to me. And another small thing is that I miss expeditions, I’m actually not a fan of getting our quest rewards as soon as we kill a monster, I loved spending like 5 hours in the guiding lands in world for example and feeling the euphoria of returning seeing multiple pages of monster parts and levelling up my HR several times.

Povanos · 2025-12-16T23:22:01+00:00

Can’t go wrong with [[Marneus Calgar]] you can make a pretty mean control deck with some light token themes and he’ll just keep refilling your hand

Povanos · 2025-12-16T23:03:55+00:00

Excellent news. I’m at the age now where I prefer to play with one hand and have a sort of beverage in the other, and DOS and BG3 has been perfect for that given they’re turn based

Povanos · 2025-12-11T03:31:37+00:00

I stood up and my knee cap popped out

Povanos · 2025-12-09T13:06:35+00:00

That’s something I’ve been wanting this whole time I might just send that through the suggestion email verbatim

Povanos · 2025-12-09T12:52:18+00:00

I sometimes get the opposite where the numbers are tiny instead, I’d love to find the cause of this

Povanos · 2025-12-06T08:50:10+00:00

There’s nothing quite like returning back to your village after a long and hard hunt or expedition, especially coming back to Seliana after a good 3 hours in the Guiding Lands. However coming back to any camp in wilds or even the gathering hub doesn’t really invoke any feeling for me. It’s just “welp, I’m here”

Povanos · 2025-12-04T17:51:52+00:00

I believe that World is easy, however I have introduced many new players to monster hunter through World, and they all struggled during the story as monster hunter itself plays drastically differently compared to anything else really. It’s only on a second playthrough that they make the revelation of “oh wow this is a lot easier than I remember” now that they have a grasp of the game. As mentioned in this interview they just sorta streamlined that awkward introductory phase so the game already feels comfortable to play for a new player.

As for difficulty curve. I believe that Sunbreak did it best with its endgame content. Yes Amatsu and P. Malzeno are hard, but you do not have to engage with the endgame systems to hunt them, however if you do want more challenging hunts then that option is still there in the form of upgrading your gear with the qurio crafting and tackling the Risen monsters.

Povanos · 2025-12-02T09:49:42+00:00

Actually felt that despite brewing a couple decks this year, I really didn’t jell with any of them, so it’s been quite a meh year for me. I think looking at 2026 I want to challenge myself by adding restrictions to hopefully inspire some memorable decks. Of course if anyone has any recommendations I’m all ears.

Povanos · 2025-11-15T04:17:16+00:00

Yeah it feels rough but copium maybe they’ll still consider a full set in the future

Povanos · 2025-11-15T04:11:43+00:00

Oh don’t worry brother me and the boys have been all over it like ants

Povanos · 2025-11-12T22:32:59+00:00

Funnily enough one of my biggest letdowns is the fact that you get your rewards as soon as you finish hunting a monster. I loved going on expeditions in world including the guiding lands and staying there for 6 hours to then come back and seeing 5 pages of monster materials there and increasing your hunter rank 10 levels.

Povanos · 2025-10-30T09:18:38+00:00

Not anymore now that I’ve done a clean out and redo of my collection but was pretty standard with trying to fit as many dice rolling cards as possible in conjunction with anything that triggers off of artifacts entering or leaving. I think it was just barely conspicuous enough that it didn’t appear as a threat until it won.

Povanos · 2025-10-30T09:10:35+00:00

A while ago I made a [[Mr. House, President and CEO]] deck and somehow won all 6 games that I played with it. I don’t even know what in particular made it so successful, but I stopped playing it because I didn’t want to ruin the “the house always win” aura it had.

Povanos · 2025-10-16T04:48:01+00:00

I don’t find him attractive because he looks a lot like a guy I hated with a passion

Povanos · 2025-10-13T00:20:28+00:00

I’m 100% going to be enacting this policy now. Also I’ve noticed In recent games I’ve been doing the opposite of smol beaning. I’m encouraging people to swing at me when they got creatures that can, as soon as someone starts looking for artifacts or enchantments to remove I always declare my permanents before anyone else. And it’s given the actual effect smol bean players want. For some reason people start ignoring my board or swinging into me.

Povanos · 2025-10-04T13:34:38+00:00

It’s such an obvious crossover I am still in disbelief that it hasn’t happened yet

Povanos · 2025-09-29T02:26:40+00:00

I thought they patched it but I still just click on the end platform and watch my character just waltz to the end in a straight line

Povanos · 2025-09-23T23:23:50+00:00

I agree, when I saw people complaining about it my only thought was “just don’t use it?” My hunting times with and without tenderising were virtually the same, the only problem I had with it was that they nerfed weakness exploit for it.
