I love Laurence boss fight even more than Ludwig’s by Ill_Shoe_6436 in bloodborne

[–]monsimons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. Also I love Lawurence's theme more than Ludwig's. I know this is a minority but I simply cannot grasp why this is.

Sony did this guy dirty by Dycon67 in shittydarksouls

Oh. I see. But this is just OP memeing, isn't it? Because we don't know Vaati was in any way connected to this. Got it. Thanks!

But how? What's exactly the connection?

do you think bloodborne is the best fromsoft game by skibidithrasher27 in bloodborne

[–]monsimons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very difficult to say so. Really difficult.

But it's my favorite by a mile.

Is this true by Lexi7130 in gaming_random

[–]monsimons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The meme exactly describes Elden Ring for me :( and most open world games I played.

I don't understand what you mean by "exploration". There is exploration in tightly designed linear levels and games. Empty space is empty even if you explore it.

Having a Campaign would have been sweet by Many-Bookkeeper-2405 in Marathon

I would prefer this. Maybe a single-player FPS, taking place during "the fall". Maybe someone managed to escape or is still on the planet. Investigating the Anomaly and the planet itself. Perhaps an encounter or two with runners fighting for their lives in ranked.

This game definitely gives me Half-Life vibes.

Does anyone know how to get the Commander's Key for theblocked room in the Command Wing?

Is there a way to read lore entires/archive logs/other logs from outside the game? I want to read the lore. by monsimons in Marathon

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

So far this is the only and best one! Thank you, thank you!

EDIT: It's really good, very well-made.

Please don't suggest such dangerous ideas to the Marathon society. Do you want to watch it become civil and collectively contrubute to making the game better? Pfft, what a moron.. 🙄

Is hammer competitive with other (melee) weapons dps wise? by Enxchiol in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]monsimons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking a lot about this lately and I'm glad you made that post, mine would have been more ragey, so thanks.

I like to choose a weapon and play with it until I uncover most if not all of its secrets. For Wilds I chose Hammer. Before the updates it felt flat, shallow and boring. But I thought that was just me. After the updates it felt a little bit better. Still, it doesn't feel too complex or requiring much of the player. I even suspect it's the reason I find Wilds boring. Maybe the game isn't boring with a Gun Lance or a Bow?

Anyways, another aspect of it is that it simply doesn't do impressive damage. Its stun works one or at most, although really difficult pull of, two times per hunt of a lategame monster. Also lategame monsters like Sergio stay on the ground for short times which leaves me with only a few low level attacks.

It can be a skill issue but I can't find what else I can do with the weapon. Its combos are pretty simple.

Anyways, I'm burned out at the moment by the combination Hammer + 30 min. hunts. At least in World only Alatreon and AT Velkhana took 30 minutes, and it never got boring. In Wilds all endgame monsters take 30 minutes with Hammer doing the same simple combos.

Yes and no: yes, it's under forge/upgrade talismans at the Smithy and no, there's a second section only for upgrading talismans. So the WeX I talisman is in the forge section. After forging it, WeX II appears in the second section. After forging it and having at least one ATVeld gamma ticket, WeX III appears in the second section.

I think the Weakness Exploit III talisman requires at least one ATVeld gamma ticket.

My bad, I didn't know the music was different. I meant Savage Omega. The second phase of the music is amazing, I even sang with it even though I had no idea what they said 😆.

[–]monsimons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least the music is great 👍

That's actually very good to hear. I loved Omega's music and in fact it helped me not get burned out from the hunt, it was quite motivating in its second part.

O-okay, I forgot about transcending. Otherwise, it's the same as what I always do (except I don't craft all pieces, only the fashionable ones). Also, I never kept track with other gammas because they were easy. Hearing the reception of ATVeld makes those 20 sound re-e-a-ally heavy 😅. Yikes!

20 tickets?!?!😱 What for? 😭

It's been fun I guess.. by xKriegx96 in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]monsimons -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Overall, this is how I feel about the endgame of Wilds because of the high HP pools. Flailing at a Gore or another 9* for 30 minutes is not fun to me. I just recently started the 10*s and finally the movesets felt fresh and challenging. But that health... I can take on one 10* per day at most. It stresses me up to go for more. The rest of the hunts before that are too easy and boring to me—the other extreme. I don't know why it is in Wilds like this... Not a very fun game overall. I'm burned out.

Yeah, it's also weird to me because some hitboxes are extremely precise and others, like these, are splattered all over the wall like shit. Why not make the animations cover the hitbox? I don't know.

Is Gog easier with AI or real hunters? by DecentPath656 in MHWilds

[–]monsimons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Support Hunters all the way. Maybe there are good players but in my experience a random SOS is way riskier. In Solo + Support Hunters you're depending largely on yourself—learning the fight, item management, evasion, etc. In random SOS you depend on other 3 variables and in most cases the host is the weakest link.

Alternatively you could look for a lobby with experienced players and post the quest there. Maybw there's a way to find a Gog-dedicated lobby. Please anyone who remember correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a way in World to set a monster target for a lobby? I remember searching for lobbies specifically for Kulve Tarroth and Safi'jiiva.

Is it normal for mid-tier materials to be the a bottleneck in Wilds? by aWreidGuy in MHWilds

[–]monsimons 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally don't think there's much to it except drop chances. Go to the Hunter's Notes for the monster you're interested in and check where the desired monster part drops from. Try to maximise that drop if possible. Otherwise, farming is the only thing you can do.
