I bought monster Hunter in the hopes that it could fill the void that Destiny 2 left me with but I just can't get into it.

Same, it's a good game but I just don't know how to feel about it.

Fallout 4 has me at almost 300 hours now and still have not finished the main story line. The number of side quests is amazing. Best $20 I have spent on a game for content. I'll admit some is repetitive, but wow, the effort they put into the game makes me re-evaluate just how badly we have been treated by Bungie. Same with the main story line in GTA 5, and the fact that RockStar is still putting out content for nothing.

Try the hammer if you haven't yet. The controls are SIGNIFICANTLY less complex than other weapons. I went from 1-5 hours a week when I was messing with all the other weapon types to 2 hours a day once I tried out the hammer. Also I say unless playing with friends, solo play is much more enjoyable and less frustrating. There are also MANY mechanics that are not explained in the game (like grappling around, flying around maps, radial menu customization, etc) and if you don't get into them it can be much more annoying to play. I'm at 100+ hours in the game right now and am only about halfway through the game, there is A LOT left to discover at 30 hours in.

Tell me about it...I am like 50 hours into it and the real grind ia about to start. Trying to farm Tobiachi for my bow and the parts are not dropping. I beed this bow to take on dragons as it has huge dragon element. Well, more hunting ahead....heeheh and some Destiny inbetween
-
Make sure you are activating the right investigations (gold and silver rewards). It took me forever to really grasp this system, but I got the missing pieces I needed much faster once I did those instead of expeditions or optional missions to farm parts.

PS4 pro and Horizon zero dawn not played D2 or my Xbox one x since

HZD is the shit. It filled me destiny void forsure.

If your bad and hate grinding mhw isnt the game for you.
-
If you're bad? What does that mean. How about if you don't like the grind. I love Jackasses that use "you're bad" as a reason to not do something or why something is not being accomplished. It's hilarious
-
Well if your bad you get stuck and you say you dislike it lol. Destiny was a grindy game. It was a looter shooter now it's just an fps.
-
I like the grind in these type of games, I just can't get into monster Hunter. What does being good or bad have to do with it? Is there some kind of rpg element I've missed?
-
There a HUGE rpg element you've missed. As he said, if you're bad at the game, you're experience will be frusterating, youll be carted constantly and fail missions not just for yourself but for others as well.
-
Oh I thought he meant you can choose to be good or bad. I've probably played for 30 hours in total, I kind of get the way the game works. As I said before, i just can't get into it. I sunk a couple of thousand hours into Destiny but I don't think I could do that with MHW.
-
I played the 4 hour beta, I think that's how much time they gave me, if I'm correct. Not anywhere near enough time. But the little time I had showed me the game to be clunky, slow, cumbersome. So, I didn't get it.
-
Wrong, first impression is not a true picture. I thought so too. The game is hard and a grind fest but it rewards you. I still havw a ton ahead of me but this game will fill my Destiny off time. No longer bored. Give it another shot. We all love Destiny but MHW is awesome too
-
It may not be the true picture, according to you, but it's always been my mantra that first impressions are the most important. So, Nah, I'm good. Destiny is my off game. I'll stay here. My primary is ffxiv, been a sub there since the beginning. I have Burnout Paradise Remastered for fun right now also. And God of War is out in roughly 3 weeks. I'm a grind nutcase, but there are few games with grinds like ffxiv. MHW ain't even close. I'll trust my intuition over your fanboi state any day. But, to each his own though, have fun.
-
That's how I felt too. Although I remember my first resident evil game was code Veronica. The controls felt horrible. But as I got used to it it was ok. I wonder if MHW is kinda like that.
-
There is NO doubt there is some truth to that. I'm the same, can remember plenty of games I didn't start out well with. Dying Light games took a second for me, lol, Even now, going back to them takes a sec to adapt. With MHW, only having 4 hours for beta, if I'm remembering things right, didn't encourage me to settle into it. So, I just never did.
-
MH is an acquired taste.
-
Its pretty good but you gotta find a weapon you like. Also it only lasts like 150 hours or so. Try insect glaives?
-
That's like saying Destiny only lasts as long as the campaign missions. It's misleading and deceptive. I haven't played a story mission in MHW in weeks, just investigations and optional missions with friends every day to tune up the armor sets/weapons. This game has a fantastic game OUTSIDE the game, that's what's crucial and missing from D2.
-
The gameplay is fun and the weapons are cool but it's not exactly a simple game to just sit down with and chill. I just dont have the patience for the complexity of the potions and all that.
-
Its pretty easy potion wise...let me explain... Eat food before you go on an expedition. Pay attention to "fresh" ingredients so you get max health and stamina buffs. Non fresh ingredients still buff the same amount of defense offense or elemental resistance. SO freshness only matters for health and stamina and an increased chance at the food specific traits. The types of potions are as follows... Meganutrients increase your overall healthbar size. Potions...megapotions.. restore health. theres defense and offense buffs you dont really need to worry about ever but are always a good option particularly in the late endgame. Then there are energy buffs which make it so your energy doesnt drain as fast. Dash Potion for example Hi potion makes it so your healthbar size is maxed and restores all health. ancient potion makes it so your health and energy bar size are both maxed. Rations restore your energy bar size which diminishes over time. Not much else in the potion world besides antidotes for poison and nullberry for pretty much every other status effect. It seems complicated at first but after a little while its not so bad.
-
Thank you dude. I'll keep this in mind when I play. I'm actually gonna copy and paste this comment so I can refer to it next time I play haha
-
Just worry about Ancient Potions, they're not that hard to make and they MAX your bars, so you can pretty much ignore the rest (except regular heals and poison debuff potions)
