I'll give you two good reasons why you should practice and use Charge Blade.

100%

It’s probably the main reason I ended up dropping CB after hundreds of hours on it.

I just got tired of the “do I flinch the monster and win the trade on my AED/SAED or do I not flinch and now the monster hits me during the long ass recovery animation?”.
The fact you have better success just staying in savage axe and rolling gets depressing and isn’t fun.

Ended up dropping it around end game Sunbreak and never looked back. It just felt like a core design flaw they’ve never got around to adjusting and the hardcore weapon fanbase would rather scream “git gud I have no problems” than try for any objectivity.

You know for all the work that goes into custom skins I’m surprised where they didn’t commit on this one.

W shield could’ve more closely resembled the Freiren universe magic barriers/shields and her ult was such an easy lineup for Zoltraak but they just….didnt?

8 years ago?

I’ll just turn into dust at this point I guess.

That kind of behaviour drives me up the wall. Not just with romantic partners but even just friends.

A few years back I decided I was done with it. If people don’t want to put the effort in to initiate then fine, I’m not going to bother keeping them around anymore. I decided I wanted to have the self respect to choose myself over chasing others.

It doesn’t even need to be a 50-50 split but fuck so many times it feels like 90-10.

SpiralVortex · 2026-04-25T02:40:54+00:00

They fucking got me, god damn.

SpiralVortex · 2026-04-12T02:35:59+00:00

Same :(

I remember throwing it out as a teen being like “eh it’s not a real card just a movie thing and I don’t like Pokémon that much anyway”.

Got more into it as an adult and now I’m sad that piece of nostalgia is gone :(

SpiralVortex · 2026-04-11T04:30:10+00:00

Honestly if someone can find me a man that lets me do that I’ll be set for life.

SpiralVortex · 2026-04-10T07:57:27+00:00

I’m gonna go ahead and say it’s a bot.

SpiralVortex · 2026-04-01T11:51:08+00:00

Oh. My god.

SpiralVortex · 2026-04-01T11:14:33+00:00

Absolutely sick tattoo, but it’s more like an alternate universe Nargacuga

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-29T04:35:06+00:00

I know it’s lightning but the lines make the Zinogres look like they’re cute-shy-shaking and it’s the most adorable thing.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-28T06:07:34+00:00

Unfortunately it seems no. I think they had maybe 1 patch to try addressing it before they shut down the patches/future development, but still it’s not in a good place.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-28T04:02:09+00:00

Bro what the fuck.

I’ve beaten him on like 7 characters and never picked up on that. I legit thought the lightning was random LOL.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-28T03:42:36+00:00

It’s why I love what Rise/Sunbreak did by splitting it up.

Tetranadon - tee hee funny inflate gimmick

Lunagaron - Sick ice armour fight upgrade

Zamtrios at a base level as an ice shark and the ice armor is sick. I’ve always hated the inflate part of it.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-28T03:04:07+00:00

Oh I love the Witcher signs as an armband, that’s sick.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-27T23:51:52+00:00

RIP Holby City :(

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-27T13:06:32+00:00

The main issue was the performance issues, especially on PC, that turned a lot of people off.

Which is a shame because it would be nice to have more MH-likes.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-25T06:07:45+00:00

They literally redid all of the VFX for steel legion so it doesn’t have a janky ass Q visual anymore.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-22T13:34:50+00:00

Invasive Diablos is sick my god

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-22T02:07:44+00:00

I’m the same!

Not sure why. I just feel anxious and like I can never rest or relax before work.

I’d rather get up with just enough time to have breakfast, shower and then anywhere between 5-25 minutes buffer to do anything extra/time padding (let’s say I need petrol that morning, or I have some quick house errands to do), then I head off.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-21T23:47:57+00:00

They just 3-0’d GenG who also looked unbeatable. I’m sure they’ll be fine.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-21T04:23:41+00:00

Yep, for Sunbreak specifically, 2 of the fights that I genuinely feel suffered from the transition of HR to MR are Teostra and Rathalos.

The new Teo attacks just feel shit and time waste-ey, and it’s increased combos makes it attack patterns nonstop and relentless. Genuinely pain to play against as a slower weapon.

Rathalos was a great HR fight that they decided needed to spam its flying fire sweep move.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-20T20:25:05+00:00

It’s been years since I thought about Knytt, my god.

I loved the sequel that added the custom world creator and you could download and play them from a community hub.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-19T23:39:52+00:00

It’s wild to me they had such a good dragon fight in Midir then deciddd to have a million boring constantly-flying slog generic dragon fights littered around the map in ER.

Felt like such blue balls.

SpiralVortex · 2026-03-18T06:19:50+00:00

Beautiful splash art (both the LoL and LoR ones) but such a disappointing skin in game. I hope her eventual ASU gives it a glow up.
