Monster Hunter X (cross) aka Monster Hunter Generations

Adept hammer and adept bow are my faves right now. Hammer is beast with the new strong charge.

I just really like adept.switch axe and charge blade ate good in adept also. I dont like that little hip roll aerial gets. And adept cb has the best guard point with the b button. Hold it and the entire animation is a guard point until you attack. Im very happy. 15 days

I've been having a real tough time killing the monsters in the demo. Never had an issue in MH4. The equipment they give you must be REALLLLY shitty!

Yeah, me too. I took a few month hiatus from MonHun and that owl-thing with the confusion status is giving me trouble. I'm trying the Long Sword and I'm usually a Hammer/Hunting Horn guy, so that might be part of it.

Looks great, though! Looking forward to messing with all the new fighting styles.

If you're a veteran, bear in mind that you're going to have seen a lot of this before - there are precious few new enemies and no new maps at all (at least, 40 hours in there weren't)

At least we know it's authentically Capcom.

Ancestral Steppe
Sunken Hallow
Volcanic Hallow
Primal Forest
Frozen Seaway
Ancient Forest - New
Sanctuary
Dragon Graveyard - New
Snowy Mountain
Volcano
Swamp
Forest and Hills
Misty Peaks
Sacred Mountain or something
Deserted Island
Dunes/Old Desert

A list I found from someone else. Also, all those maps returning from MH games that aren't MH4 will be more than just "old" since they'll be revamped for elevation differences/ledges for the jumping gameplay added in 4.

No idea about new monsters though. All I know is the four new flagships and the two from the demo (great macau and Owl) And, of course, new subspecies.

Personally, though, I'm skipping this one. Not feeling the styles and too much other stuff to play. I know I'd enjoy it if I bought it but I want to avoid fatigue.

Have they done anything to cut the amount of time material-gathering gives me to think about my own mortality and the creeping onset of impotence?

[alan_fatima]

Crouch to gather faster. There's also a speed gathering skill. Monster Hunter games have things like farms to accrue large amounts of items later in the game wihtout going out to gather it yourself.

Or are you talking about the gathering focused tutorials at the beginning of each game?

[A Robot Bit Me]

The gathering itself. I made it far enough into 4H where I unlocked access to the mail service thing but nothing beyond that.
