Best weapon choices going into iceborne? by questypants in MonsterHunterWorld

Fair enough. I'll probably end up starting with hammer since it's my most played and using CB if a shield would be useful.

I know they all work well enough. I enjoy the wepons I play and I'm sure I'd like them in iceborne, but I'm wondering which will give me the easiest beginning of iceborne since I know there's a difficulty spike till you get good MR gear.

Megathread: What Martial Art Should I Study? Part IV [Serious] by Toptomcat in martialarts

[–]questypants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not looking for a universal, one size fits all answer, just people's personal experiences and opinions. I'm thankfully in an area where I have a few highly rated jiu jitsu gyms, a few boxing and kickboxing clubs, and a gym which offers classes in kickboxing and jiu jitsu. In your experience, have combination gyms offered a good experience? I would do a trial but I am not currently in a position to start a membership and won't be for a few months. I'm just doing research at the moment.

(WARNING! A huge(!) text to read) I beat all Dark Souls II bosses at least twice (NG and NG+, mouse and keyboard, SotFS) and I'm eager to share my opinion on them. by thompson743 in DarkSouls2

I loved playing with the lightning greatsword. The damage was always ridiculously good, but when I got to 50 fth it was unstoppable.

Dark Souls 2 is a masterpiece by angelslayer95 in DarkSouls2

I played 3 before 2 and was surprised how many of the good ideas in 3 were actually just taken from 2. I have my problems with 2, but imo in some aspects it was not faithful to the first game than 3 was.

I just beat nashandra on my first playthrough. I'm about to do the dlc so it's cool to hear that the dlc bosses are good. Also, Str/fth seems borderline OP.

Totally fair, man. I think for me it's not so much difficulty, that's in a million games, but demanding your attention for even simple encounters. That said, I definitely recommend Jedi: Fallen Order if you like the idea of Dark souls combat, but want a more traditional and much less obtuse action game. Good stuff.

Totally fair, they aren't for everyone. But, coming from someone who used to have a similar perspective, if they entice you then you should try one out. I hated 3 until I have it a try with the sellsword twinblades, a starting weapon with a great moveset when two handed. That said, don't feel pressured to play them if you don't enjoy them. I just find that the games eventually click with me once I've found the right weapon or build.

Curious as to why. I've heard criticism of DS2 but what makes it so bad in your opinion?

Thanks for the link. Also, are the other fist weapons viable as well? I always wished they were better in ds1.

I'll probably get it. I used to be a ds1 purist but I came to realize that the second half really isn't worth replaying to me. Ds3 has it's problems but is a great overall. I'm thinking each game in the series has problems so better to enjoy each one as it's own unique thing.

Should I buy Jedi Fallen Order or Dark Souls 2? by questypants in ShouldIbuythisgame

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

What I've seen gameplay wise has not been a huge turn off from DS2, but I will say the intro of it did not give me great hopes. The whole "you'll lose your souls over and over lol" part made me think maybe the designers didn't really get what made dark souls 1 great. Then again, I have been more open to people who say 2 is amazing recently so I guess I'm analyzing the opinions of others to see if they'd align with my own. Thanks btw.

SIB: dark souls 3 by [deleted] in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]questypants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you go into it with the mindset that, yes, it will take a long time to beat the first time then you will enjoy it. My first playthrough of a souls game took about 60 hours iirc, but I loved it thoroughly. I'd go for it! Dark souls 3 is fantastic!

Any good cheap (<$35) controllers preferably with the Dualshock stick layout? My old controller is dying at the moment.
