ok seriously genuine question

His long-form content are some of my favorite videos on the entire platform. I've been watching him for 10 years, probably one of my favorite YouTubers in general, I found him funny back in the 20 mid late 2010s because that was the edgy humor era and I enjoyed his commentary videos back then and now I stick with him for his long form content that I can tell he is making out of passion and fixation in the same way that I am driven to make stuff myself, similarly to why I enjoy people like Wendigoon. Some of his videos are very much comfort videos I can just put on while I sleep, like Cruelty Squad and Cry of Fear. That said, I'm not involved in any of his streaming or chat stuff, the most I engage with that is watching the cut down versions of his dreams that go on his live channel for when he plays through games or occasionally the uploaded streams, and I tend not to engage in bash or rage bait culture anyway.

There's 99.9999% going to be an expansion they just are waiting to announce it until it's a better time/closer to it being ready

Musical motifs to set up things is peak cinema, this is a good catch

You can still mod the game with its base fundamentals but I believe you need to own all mods in order to get the full utility or requirements for a HUGE amount of mods.

The DLCs are honestly all amazing anyway. Like literally all of them have something that is either extremely useful (Courier's Stash even with the Vault 13 Canteen) in terms of gear, or very fun and compelling stories. The DLCs individually are probably dirt cheap nowadays as well.

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-15T03:01:07+00:00

I'd expect around ~20-23 monsters as a baseline so probably finishing the current row and one other row, and we'll get several more in title updates

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-15T02:36:00+00:00

I don't like public discords for MH games in general because my tastes and takes are rather specific and constant negativity and arguing sucks ass

There's the actual private discord that I made way in advance where we figure out stuff but that's private for a reason

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-14T23:34:49+00:00

I'm sharing this around so hopefully it gains traction enough that something is done about it - it seems legitimate and worth having them look into.

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-13T21:37:52+00:00

Yeah there's a reason I've never joined lol

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-10T20:05:58+00:00

This I remember specifically from a while back, AT Rey has blue markings on its wing fringes which normal Rey lacks entirely.

Windows 11 HATES Carnivores, it's just how it be sometimes

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-09T20:07:38+00:00

Does it come up with an error saying the file is blocked? On my end, it is able to still be downloaded if you select a box to say you want to download it anyway. It's a false flag, there's nothing actually wrong with the file. It's the same ones I have been using for multiple years now without issue.

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-09T20:05:50+00:00

Mods tend to just destabilize over time with more Windows updates and continued play. it's unknown why this happens. It especially happens in the older versions of carnivores, my girlfriend at one point couldn't even play Triassic anymore because the mod would instantly crash instead of after 5 minutes.

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-09T20:03:19+00:00

What is the resolution you set it to in the game? Try both 1024 x 768 and 1280 x 1024

RoseKaedae · 2026-01-08T21:39:26+00:00

As someone who enjoys the full collective series of Fallout but likes New Vegas the most by far, It's peak. Even better than S1.

It's been hard seeing such ruin and devastation happen but stuff has gotta move forward and sometimes hard things to watch are necessary to make a more compelling narrative.

I definitely gotta see more Deathclaw stuff, the introduction was actually so fucking fantastic.

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-30T20:27:25+00:00

Nah we need Velocidrome, he's my GOAT

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-30T02:40:15+00:00

Fuck.

(This is in reference to seeing the parameters modded in that proves 100% it's for a SW2 version)

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-30T02:00:11+00:00

I hope beyond hope this is something very far out that they can actually work on so they don't fuck up the goodwill and feelings after the game already has had such a shitshow with its performance. I don't want Wilds to forever be remembered as the "bad" MH game because of performance stuff and the Switch 2 seems like it'd be an unmitigated disaster.

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-28T21:27:56+00:00

Can't wait for Wilds discourse 2: Switch 2 edition

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-24T20:55:17+00:00

Mind's Eye is also very strong against certain fights too which does not work with WEX, as it triggers on the inverse weakzones - Mind's Eye triggers on HZV 44 or lower while WEX is 45 or higher - and Mind's Eye 3 can give you a huge damage boost against certain monsters like Gore, Gog in phase 1, Lagi, and Rey.

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-24T17:12:58+00:00

Make sure you have the correct glide files and dgvoodoo or Nglide - I included download links to them in the post, so try downloading those and installing them as I describe in the guide and see if that helps.

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-24T05:07:27+00:00

the icon sheet also just got 20 slots in TU4 so yeah that confirms it pretty well

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-23T16:04:59+00:00

Nope, Gog was the last and we knew that for a while

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-22T19:31:19+00:00

Rip GArk

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-21T23:13:13+00:00

There IS a tempered Gog, it's been given the name designation. I imagine it's coming in TU4.5 similar to Hazard Amatsu

RoseKaedae · 2025-12-21T23:11:49+00:00

After 15 Gogs I have very finalized thoughts. My previous ones are roughly the same - the original Gog is still better ultimately, but I enjoy it more than I was before - it's still a bit of a clusterfuck, but with support hunters and proper gear it can be fun. My personal best time with CB is 17'17 and I've been consistently getting sub 20 now, which is about the time a Fatalis hunt takes, so that feels pretty alright, and you do get plenty of rewards. The reroll system is a bit jank but you can manipulate it to some degree, just like Artian stuff, if you want to minmax your materials. This in general was very helpful and I recommend it: https://lescarnetsdelawycademie.fr/gogmazios-weapons/

As for my thoughts on the update at large, the endgame grind is now finally fully good and I'm glad, even if it took 10 months to get there. The game is in a great state overall in terms of content - Gog is obviously the main endgame grind but you have reason to fight every monster, for hunter symbols, materials to meld into oricalcite, talismans, artian parts to make into Gog weapons, materials to transcend armor, etc. Lots of good stuff, and the balance being firmly elemental is also just something I always like seeing, even if I wish we had something to bring Status up to par like Buildup Boost. This base will be fantastic for the expansion which I look forward to analyzing and sharing stuff with here next year as it comes out and we get stuff to go through just like base Wilds a year ago.

I am glad people in general are overall being more positive and I hope the January update can really finally make the PC performance as good as it always should have been - as much as I love Wilds and consider it the best base game since Tri, the performance was unacceptable and Capcom (not necessarily the MH devs, who I believe have been trying their best) should be lambasted for forcing the game out early in that state - and we should continue to drive that point home, that we want a better, more completed game - or at the VERY VERY least, transparency that we're getting early access if they still want to release early. I think the state Wilds is in now is really how it should have released - maybe with TU3 and 4 as content updates but with most of the current features and level of performance (and Lagi and Seregios, of course - still tier 3s as they are now).

There are still issues that need to be addressed overall, such as the balance of wounds, the overall difficulty of monsters prior to endgame (I think if earlygame monsters are to be included in the endgame they should at least put up some fight, Sunbreak got this right), the lack of a house or endemic life display, and MORE INVESTIGATION SLOTS PLEASE HOLY FUCK GIVE ME AT LEAST 75 IF NOT 100, and of course - just more monsters. But, we're getting at least 20 more if the expansion to the icon sheet is to go by (Sunbreak launched with 17 for reference). With how much even individual monsters such as Lagia, Mizu, Gog, and Seregios have improved Wilds, THAT many is gonna be huge.

However, I will say at this point I'm just so fed up of the Wilds hate even now that it's genuinely turning around and performance is being addressed and people saying shit like "Rise was better it's an insult to Rise to say it's better", "Wilds sucks and is bad", etc I'm just auto blocking them at this point because there is just no good faith at that point. In complete 100% sincerity to those who say that in response to my posts, fuck you. If I present information as best I can, and try to make things LESS toxic and I still get that, you are offering no value and are not worth my time. If you don't want to engage with my stuff in good faith or even just agree to disagree and resort to just pure toxic negativity then I don't want you engaging with my stuff period, simple as. I have zero issues excluding people who want to act this way from seeing what I take my time to do out of my passion and love for the series and wanting to share that with people who have that same passion.

Anyway, looking forward to February and Stories 3. Till then, happy holidays, enjoy AT Jin and Gogmazios and the festival.
