Monster Hunter update: I am enjoying the game a lot. After testing out a few weapons, I settled on a Long Sword. Wearing chainmail armour now. Saw the Lagiacrus during a sea hunting quest (it was scripted but still). Unlocked additional areas. Comfortable with controls. Itching to hunt a Great Jaggi now that I unlocked the quest.

Pretty much what I was at back then, I'm still trying out different weapons. I think I really like the dual swords

 

[DXLelouch153]

im through with fighting games that arent Tekken,Streetfighter,or Smash
so no im not buying it

Some of the others seem complicated, like the bagpipes.

Wait.... You can do sick bagpipe combos?

Longsword is just as complicated as the rest really, have you watch pro jareds videos?

 

[DXLelouch153]

Any particular reason?

no time to get gud
i grew up with tekken,sf,and smash though
with games like bayo 2 its easy to get gud, with fighting games it takes awhile

I'm intentionally not watching them.

"John Cena solemnly dancing alone in a suit to Gangnam Style."

Amazing. Just amazing.

Why? It's the go to for getting started with Monster Hunter. They're really good videos

 

[DXLelouch153]

only fighting game i currently have is smash, and im not diving into that until i atleast beat Xenoblade, which i cant play until the stuff i ordered gets here

 

[CthulhuSushi]

Skullgirls is easier to pick up then Tekken man. Smaller cast too so it's easier to git gud.

Well wait for a Steam sale and pick it up. Imo is a better fighting game then Street Fighter.

 

[demidar]

Because I don't want any help.

 

[DXLelouch153]

thats more a mindgames simulator but i see what you mean
edit:by laptop not getting used much i meant i have the game but been on my wiiu lately

 

[croten]

Because I don't want any help.

Might have picked the wrong game then, you kinda need help either from more advanced players or a Wiki. Either way Pro Jared's videos only really cover the first couple of hours of the game and give you some extremely useful knowledge

 

[Banana Aeon]

Because I don't want any help.

Doesn't the game not explain how it works?

To his their own, I guess.

 

[Archgan]

So I was playing Mercenary Kings earlier today and I found a Jojo reference.

You worry too much, I'll be fine (I will still play multiplayer) but I want to learn everything myself.

That's amazing. I really need to pick that up.

 

[DXLelouch153]

so due to the new lore that makes AJ Styles Liams gf

Ohh gotcha. Well if you ever get bored of your WiiU hop on and I'll play you.

 

[croten]

I'm not worrying, I'm just saying that Monster hunter doesn't teach you everything that you need to know, the tutorial is the first 10-15 hours of the game. You want to watch his videos, there are only three of them.

Man choosing Functions in Transistor is hard

There's almost too much depth for the amount of game that's there, but I think that's like complaining there's too much food at the meal.

Note that your leather set has awesome gathering skills, so use it for that. Go beat up the Great Jaggi.

Ehhhh he can do alright on his own. I had a rough 20 hours doing things myself but I did it. Using a Wiki is pretty damn important down the line though. Unless you wanna waste time exploring weapon trees on your own. There's an awesome program I downloaded that has all the game info and is basically a wiki.

ProJared videos just explain basic stuff though, like Affinity = Crit Rate. The game will never explain what Affinity means otherwise. No reason not to watch them.

Hammer and Greatsword or bust.

Yeah, I actually didn't really like the combat until late into the game, but when I got there boy I loved it. I just finished it today and I want to go through it again, I heard that there is random encounters in NG+

Man Gintoki has the darkest backstory of any shonen protagonist.

Wouldn't that just be dual blades?

New Game + is at the very least, a good way to explore and understand the story on a second go! and to use all the functions you unlocked to their full potential.

I liked the combat from the get go, but I just love pausing otherwise realtime combat. I like VATS for that reason too,

Nah. The Monster Hunter Greatsword is heavy as shit, your character would have terrible back problems the way you use it.

Wouldn't that just be dual blades?

Really, really slow ones.

 

[DXLelouch153]

is this karate game on steam?
seems interesting

I actually found that I did better the less I used Turn()

Are you caught up on the manga?

 

[RecursiveFault]

Oh yeah you can build yourself functions meant for action if you want. Abusing stuff like Mask() and Jaunt() (putting functions on Jaunt changes a lot about how you avoid damage and set up your next turn() and) getting combos was my favorite though.

 

[Loco4Coco]

LIVER SHOCK!!

 

[Romars202129]

Woof, that's ice cold. Romars am cry.

I think you mean Shackzam am cry. He was sooo salty about my 2AAA sweep combo last night.
I'm sorry it's so simple and yet so effective~! I didn't write the code, I'm just playing the game damnit!

 

[Hemi-PoweredDrone]

Wouldn't that just be dual blades?

Yah, but bigger.

Well when I use turn() I end up just running around for 3 or 4 seconds afterwards, sometimes it was just better to spam attacks rather than use turn().

Yah, but bigger.

I meant for Ganon. he doesn't exactly use greatswords.

 

[RecursiveFault]

Well when I use turn() I end up just running around for 3 or 4 seconds afterwards, sometimes it was just better to spam attacks rather than use turn().

Mask and Jaunt can be used while you're on cooldown, and if you time stuff right you can dodge for a awhile and then get in the perfect position for getting a back damage bonus.

Then you're not using Turn() right.

Not really but I know whats happening. I did read the newest chapter

[croten]

My point was that you don't need to use it. It's only necessary for combos.

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

You worry too much, I'll be fine (I will still play multiplayer) but I want to learn everything myself.

Which is perfectly fine. Learn to hunt, farm and how to use weapons by yourself. I do recommend the wiki just to see what types of weapons, armor and skills you might want to use. It's VERY helpful. Multiplayer can come once you reach G rank in the storymode.
