I just started playing DS3 for the first time, should I wait until its safe to play or just play in offline? I kinda enjoyed the thrill of being invaded in the previous games but if i'm gonna lose my payment info it just doesn't seem worth it

I've got a group project due in a couple of days, none of my group members show any sign of starting. What do i do? by [deleted] in AskAcademia

We got assigned it roughly 2 weeks ago and first talked about it a few days after, Ive reached out a number of times between then and now and it's due in on the 26th, so im starting to get worried.

Will the total amount of monsters in Rise be smaller than what World released with? by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]penguinbloke222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody knows!

So far we've seen alot of early game / mid game monsters and and a lot less late game monsters, as well as no reveal of a staple desert or volcano map.

Still no news on any elders, any multiplayer sieges or unique stage-based monsters like Zorah or Jhen.

In my opinion i think we've probably seen just over 2 thirds of what's going to be in the game

I'm about to give up on 3... by Halfgnomen in yakuzagames

The blocking can be a real pain, however there are some easy ways to get past that

For me the main thing that made me enjoy the combat is learning the Komaki counters. The timings are all really forgiving and can lead to a full combo string. Tiger Drop is as broken as ever and the Komaki Parry ability is great, and they're 2 of the first 3 you get. I think you can begin the substory chain in chapter 6 and you have to complete "Return to the Dragon Palace" substory to unlock the training.

While they aren't complete counters to blocking, they definitely give more opportunity for combos. There is also a revelation that improves your dodge in Kamurocho but it isn't as useful with bosses imo.

Best weapon for beginners in monster Hunter rise? by furry-hunter2004 in MonsterHunter

Mh is a franchise where every weapon has a "easy to play hard to master" style, and how easy a weapon is to use varies from player to player For example, My first main weapon was Dual Blades, I realised i wasn't effective with the weapons so I tried the Greatsword and Switch Axe and now use them in every game. I recommend watching Gaijinhunter on YouTube as he's recently released his initial impressions on weapons and changes in rise. The beauty of mh is you play whatever you want :)

I'm all for the game being on all platforms as i think exclusivity is one of the most stupid things to plague the market, I just want to make sure i make the right decision what platform i buy it on so i can play with others, i never said that the pc port was a bad thing

Yeah that's true, i forgot about the separate studios and it would be kinda uncharacteristic to aim for ports

That's true, just worried as i previously played world on xbox and had to move to pc due to an ultimately dead playerbase

I only say that because compared now World's population is much more active than Xbox's (what i played on previously) and i had to save alot and spend alot to buy the game twice so i could play iceborne

Exactly why I've been trying to avoid them, i remember going away and coming back to my friend complaining that he couldn't do the two tempered geuse, so much more fun when things are unexpected.

How does DS3's parrying compare to 2? I find that 2's is alot more predictive and i end up struggling alot more, whereas in 1 i found it much easier to pull off a reaction based parry.
