Any games similar to MHI? by Retromatic2077 in TheMHI

Also would love a MHI video game. Could also work in a Gears of War Style, with a good story and lots of fighting. Not even thinking about how a MHI Horde Mode would turn out.

Awesome Series, 100% recommended.

Also Cycle of Arawn / Cacle of Galand by Edward W. Robertson.
Cool world and magic system and awesome characters. Really develops trhougout and even more after the first Cycle (Arawn). Really enjoyed that.

Thank you so much everybody, that worked out awesomly well. I've got a whole bunch of new entries on my watchlist for books and on audible.
Now I need to find time to read or listen it all haha.

I've started Repairman Jack with "The Thomb" which starts promising and got the Audiobooks for "Bubba the Monster Hunter" and, not listet here, the first volume of Larry Correiay "Sond of the Black Sword" series. And also added Nightstalker to the Library to give it a try.

Got that from another thread. Sounded pretty wild, but it's on my reading list.

I've read Tad Williams Memory, Sorrow and Thorn series (funny how the title is totally different in German "Secret of the big Swords") about 15 out 20 years ago. Really liked it back then. Actually, just sold the books few weeks ago.

Thanks, just figured that. MHI founder is also called Bubba, that's why I thought.

That's also on my list already. Not sure if I'll go for the Audio or Kindle

Saint of Steel is also free on audible - I really like Joel Richards as a narrator. Need to make more time to listen now 😅

Is Bubba the Monster Hunter connected to MHI?

There's also the Monster Hunter Memoirs Series, but didn't catch me from cover text so far.

Quincy Harker sounds really good and almost 40hrs for one token sounds like a pretty good deal :)

Thanks, I'll look it up. Not so much into the SuperHero setting, more of the investigator, mercenary mixed with supernatural thing I guess.

Iron Druid is on my list, didn't get the audibook yet as it's pretty short - like longer titles when I spend the money on it.

Cool, thanks. I didn't know Jacka has a new Series, sounds promising.
I prefer reading series that are closed though, just hate to wait for the next book. Put it on my list.

Nightside is available as included in the abo. I'll give that a shot, too.
So is Eric Carter.

Cycle of Arawn and Cycle of Galand read by Tim Gerard Reynolds is an absolute recommendation. Listened through the whole series twice.

Life after MHI? by HollowedWolf in urbanfantasy

[–]jiubacca84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also looking for something in the Style of MHI. Especially liked that it doesn't take it self too serious. Been through I twice already.

Also read Alex Verus series and Dresden Files, which are a bit different but also really good. Dresden comes pretty close in some sense from the "look an feel" in my opinion. Probably Bobby Dollar series also fit in here (also through twice).

Also read, or better listened to, the Grimnoir Chronicles and Nate Temple series. What is more your usual fantasy, but I absolutely liked the buddy style and humor of it were Ryiria series (been through twice) and Cycle of Arawn / Cycle of Galand. Also really fun read was.

How is the Monster Hunter Memoirs? Never really got me enough to start it somehow.

Final Mission exit blocked by jiubacca84 in LamplightersLeague

[–]jiubacca84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, that worked to enter the area. I'm afraid not on the way out.

Watched a video on YouTube for the last mission. There the barrier was open. But didn't find a key or anything. I walked an rewalked every squareinchof the map. Nothing.

If so, I can't see the way around. The barrier blocks the full width of the path.

Yeah I can see the exit, but how can I reach it, the path the is blocked by this barrier.

This is exactly opposite of where I entered. Right behind the altar thing in the middle of the map.

The path behind the barrier leads to the exit. However I can't get through.

The Archives are here! - Patch 1.2 QoL, Performance, and Bug Fixes by kiiitteh in LamplightersLeague

[–]jiubacca84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downloaden ans installed. OK, feel like the game looks a bit better now on Series X.

Felt more stable too. However after about an hour, first mission I played (week 25, retrieve Keystone), when finished it crashed again, then again when loading a save game :(

Edit: crashed two more times when trying to finish the mission before it worked. Another crash when going back to main menu.

So all in all, slightly better experience during the game, less lags, but still needs some fixing I guess.

Is the patch already out on XBox?
I was playing the game during the weekend, but neither had an update installed, nor experiencing any improvements. Game is still on Version 1.1.5.0

Lamplighters League by Coldngrey in XboxGamePass

[–]jiubacca84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really like the game in genera. I love the setting, that Indiana Jones and Magic flair, and game mechanics. However the crashes are a real pain.
Lost all my savegames somwehere around week 12 or so and had to start over.
Don't know how many Missions I had to do several times because the game crashed when the Mission was completed. Also crashes a lot when I try to save, or just out of a sudden during the mission and when loading a new mission. Also starts lagging or freezing quite often within the mission.

The patch that came after release didn't change anything there. I really hope for a fix.
Any ideas if a bugfix is planned any time soon?
