That was a good game.

I was the Long sword user by the way (the one that fainted)
Lol, yeah. Game's prett fun. Gotta try out more weapons. How do you dance?
Aww yiss, wish it was SH2 but this'll do.
ALSO Who wants to hunt some shit in 4U demo? I'm up for anything, experienced.
I'm up for some hunting later if you guys are still on.

Charge Blades gunna be the new thing I put time into. It's a superior feeling sword and shield without the utility, but using the superior axe moves from the Switch Axe moveset as it's charge attacks, and it does tons of KO damage and variation in power and ability. Both it and the Glaive are easily the most complex weapons, especially compared to stuff like the Lance and Longsword, which are still great, don't get me wrong, they're just simpler ideologically.

I was screwing around with the Switch Axe because a transforming weapon sounded amazing, but I thought to myself that I would rather use a sword as the default. Then Squishy told me to try the Charge Blade, and now I know that I've got to use it.

The fact that you can cancel your sword combo into the weapon morph attack (and vice versa) is a great way to quickly set up the more powerful Axe combo. Just doing something like X, X, A, X, Morph, A, A, A is intuitive, powerful, goes right into phial moves, and doesn't waste a phial on the charged Axe starter.

The fact that it transforms, has stances, and unleashes a "limiter" is just a cool concept to me. I wonder how powerful the Sword Stance is without the phials.

Worthless. If you hit too many times with just the sword and shield it'll overcharge and you'll get bounces on every strike. Switch Axes modes are both good enough to use exclusively, but the charge blade absolutely REQUIRES you to switch.

Sorry, I meant the Axe combos without the phials stocked.

By overcharge, you mean when the weapon dulls? Or when you don't store your phials?
 
Also, the game just feels really smooth to jump over shit.

And the way you have to jump off that cliff in the beginning of level with the Tetsucabra is super hype.
Edit: and how your hunter basically does a snake pose when they land
 
Ahh. Well 3U is going right in the trash the day 4U comes out. I can't believe how overpowered you are for the demo. The charge blade set is the fucking Brachy set. Hell, the insect glaive is the new flagship monster, the Seregios or whatever.

Poor bastards who've never played the game before. Enjoy your bone armors and weapons when you start the real game.




I've recently been watching American Dad a lot lately and good god is it miles ahead of Family Guy ever was.

GG goodwil. Didn't think that my attacks would deflect so soon.
Ho jeez I suck at monster hunter

Is.. There a lock on.....?

This is REAAALLY tough on 2DS
Not really lock on, but when you have seen your target and its in viewing range hit the button in the lower left corner and tap the L button to autoposition your camera to see it.

I watch both. I know Matt hates the cartoons but I find enjoyment out of them.

I believe there is a lock on.

On the bottom screen, there should a be symbol of the monster when you are in the same zone, if you touch it, you can activate a soft lock on, where when you hit the L button, it will point you in the direction of the monster.


Also, it turns out I got 2 extra codes for the demo if anyone wants one.
