I'm thinking about it, range does look fun.

I didn't get a chance to play lance during the beta so I'm excited to try it out especially after that showcase for it.

Did a few hunts this morning. Felt like they really did not nerf Bow. If anything it seems way stronger than the Beta

The lance feels so good in the actual game.

While I do think the lance's new tricks in wilds is neat, I did not care for them removing the O+X while holding block power guard.

A lot of players voices their disappointment in this, so for the main game capcom actually put the power guard back while still letting the lance keep the new combo counter guard move and whatnot. It just works so much better now imo. At first I was going to drop the lance as my main weapon, but I like it so much with this first hunt that I am going right back to it.

I feel like theyve definitely gone hard on the weapons. I usually main one new weapon per game but Im thinking about playing 3 this time. Maybe more

How's the Hunting Horn? Haven't really been keeping up with the new stuff. Does it compare more to World's or Rise's?

This kind of thing is definitely why its best to personally experience things for yourself because with the way some online posters was exaggerating across the net (especially on reddit. Reddit is a giant ball of negativity in general, with the NPC moronic youtube comment sections coming in a close 2nd) about monster hunter wild's graphics+performance then no matter what you played on it was all doom and gloom. I fired this game up and the hunt+controls felt mad nice, lol. Yeah, capcom really could have done better with this RE engine game, but its seriously nowhere near being this unplayable mess some peeps was gaslighting theirselves to believe.

Normally I am the type that prefers my games in 60fps, but the PS5 pro balanced setting with 120hz activated and 40fps locked in (with VRR running of course. Its not going to work without the VRR going) feels smooth to play and I didn't notice anything drastic going on whether I was in that cave smacking up the chatacabra or out in the wide open.

About to swap it back over to the performance mode though. This also has the option of playing in 120hz and locking the 60fps (compared to leaving the framerate unchecked, which would be more useful for future-proofing/something like that).

Yeah the greatsword feels mad nice too. I plan on using the lance, the greatsword, the dual blades and the bow so far.

I mean they're both good games...

Anyways really excited to get into it tomorrow... Might be time to finally try out some new main weapons... I liked the Gunlance in the Beta, might finally replace Switch Axe with it because I wasn't feeling the SA in the Beta...

The only way I'd like to play this game is with a range build. I know it's early but is there anything brainless like the face tanks all damage shotgunner build in World? I loved that shit.

In my opinion lala barina is one of the cooler bug mons capcom came up with for the series. Also the armor set is pretty stylish so I am going to make it just for the low rank fashion.

Taking my sweet ass time playing. Just beat the Congalala and its pretty tanky against guns. Might have to switch to melee to kill this monster faster.

It really is too easy so far but that's fine with me

I usually use lance, but this time I tried switch axe because of a let's player, the wounding makes it easy to charge up.

In somewhat early high rank and I can't wait to see what follows.

I'm enjoying it so far. I just got through the first trip to the ice area.

I also used the Lala Burina armor due to how fancy it looks. I wanted to swap to Rey Dau but apparently you can't craft the full set when you first unlock it. That was disappointing, but the helmet does look kinda goofy in the cutscenes anyway. lol

Hows the replayability?

I assume it's charm farming

they're probably going to add arch-tempered monsters etc. If those are not in yet.

I'm at the end of chapter 3 I think. Just beat Arkveld. Pretty cool fight and probably the first "difficult" fight. Still haven't carted yet but it's low rank so whatever.

Switch Axe main but I'm kinda interested in the bows for the first time. Never really got what's so special or fun about them but I want to change it up. I've only ran dual swords and switch axe my entire MH career.

I've only ever been decent with Longsword. I think I did get used to switch axe in world, but I'm currently maining Great Sword and it's not too bad. I could never land a hit in previous games or find time to charge it. But it seems much quicker now.

I'll probably try and learn other weapons too. Bow will likely be next if I don't fall back into Longsword territory again.

Still in Low Rank. The story is not nearly good enough to justify how intrusive it is. JRPGs are my favorite genre. I can sit back and let cutscenes play out if they are entertaining and I'm immersed. Definitely not the case here. I'm also a World sperm and miss the hell out of Clutch Claw and Wirebug.

Wirebug was awesome, but I'm so glad the clutch claw is gone.

Finally rolled credits and the game feels 100x better now. Things flow way more smoothly. Now I can finally hunt lol

I need to hurry up and get the more boring low rank story stuff over with. My brother screwed up with his order of monster hunter wilds (he forgot to update his card info when he pre-ordered a steelbook version of this game. Of course it wasn't getting shipped out until he fixed all that. By the time he did the game now wouldn't arrive for him until tuesday/today) and so I originally held myself back a little to play some of these boring story quests with him.

I'm really ready to do some high rank now and actually start building some sets proper so I might just say screw it and go ahead.

I only just reached high rank last night, but I did quite a few quests after that. I stopped after the second story quest to the ice zone.

Did make myself some nice new armor though.

Title Update 1. Which is supposed to be in early April.
I fell into the hype and got it despite not really trying anything else in the series. This story railroading me fucking sucks. I just want to bop monsters with my hammer.

I do like the gameplay though. For what it's worth, I'm up to rank 4 and beat some sort of lightning dragon. I've heard the story isn't super long and will plow through so I can do the challenging content.
I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness.

My suggestion: ignore everything except red quest marks until credits roll, then hunt to make yourself some low tier high rank equipment, then continue ignoring everything until you finish the rest of the story. Skip all cutscenes the story is especially bad even for monster Hunter standards lol.

Yeah, the story sucks this time around. And they put such a heavy focus on it too. The previous games that had a story focus were much more balanced, it was more about just going out hunting until you stumbled upon something strange, then get a short cutscene discussing it before moving on with more hunts to find the cause of the issues. Actually felt you were investigating things and making progress and the story events were spaced out.

This game feels like it reversed it, now it's constant story events with maybe 1 fight between.

The worst part is they give you absolutely no indication of what you're about to do before you do it.

Like geeze maybe let me know you're throwing me into an inferno so I can unequip my -20 fire resistance armor?

Ch4 really opens up the game and it's only 10-ish hours of bullshit story. I didn't skip but my wife did which kinda made playing together a hassle lol

Might be contentious but I do really like how they made it way easier to get monster parts now. Investigations seem way more useful this time around now that I don't have to play all day to get a ruby. Tbh idk if that was the case in Rise, World or 3 either cuz I never fucked around with investigations.

Alright, time to pull up my bootstraps and catch back up. I haven't played really yesterday and now it feels like most lobbies I go to is now into a good bit of highrank with all this fancy equipment I don't want to look up. (Still not trying to get totally spoiled on the exact mons that made it over into high rank).
