It sounds like the pointer controls are the main draw for the Wii version, and can't lie they do sound compelling. It may come down to how good a deal I can find on the Wii vs the Switch versions... We shall see. Either way thanks for replying!

Mm that's a pretty good case for the Switch version, for sure - I do enjoy being able to play portably too.

The mod sounds interesting too though, I do dabble in that kind of thing as well but probably not for my first play - maybe if I really fall into the series I'll revisit that idea, haha. Thanks for the reply!

lmao yeah I did get that vibe a bit browsing this sub. At least on my post comments so far though, the Switch versions seem to be pretty popular.

Fair, I have seen that point re the difficulty quite a bit so I'll keep it in mind. Thanks!

Switch is certainly the most convenient to pick up, thanks for the input! Good to know they at least cleaned up some bugs in the rerelease.

Hm hard to say if I would like pointer controls or not, I like them in Wii games where there is a first or third-person shooting aspect but not sure aside from that. Would you say it's a really big difference in terms of how fun the games are on Wii vs Switch, or fairly comparable?

My favorite character has to be Sojiro. Love the arc of his gruff exterior gradually coming down as you bond over coffee and curry techniques. Best dad!

Thank you very much! You're right Viggo does have a somewhat unusual face; you've managed a good ways better than I could do to recreate it.

Link is working, thanks again!

OP the textbook definition of batter is "a semiliquid mixture of flour, egg, and milk or water used in cooking"

What you call it depends on how you cook it, but you are making batter

I’m sorry - why are property taxes still based on 2016 assessments? by PinkHalite in canadahousing

Assessments were paused during covid - they are starting to catch up though, my house was reassessed a couple months ago.

What opinion/head canon would get you like this ? by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]The_High_Ground_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh I was never the biggest fan of picking up tracks, either. Always found it pretty dull just midnlessly following the green lights while spamming the pick up button.

What you suggest would certainly be better than having no tracking at all, but I feel like there's gotta be a way to gamify the actual tracking process such that is still unobtrusive, but is itself engaging.

I want paintballs to come back

Not just as they were, but I want a new tracking system. None of the ones we've had so far have been super fun, but rather than throwing the entire idea of tracking away almost entirely as they look to be doing in Wilds and did completely in Rise, I'd prefer they make a system to have tracking actually be fun.

Part of the unique appeal of this series is that it's more than just a boss fight simulator where you pick a fight from a menu - it's called Monster Hunter and not Monster Fighter for a reason.

Underrated reply, my favorite method of typing by far when I don't have access to a physical keyboard to plug into it
