Big Swords and Bigger Monsters - #36

For those on the fence with Monster Hunter World, no one talks about the negatives.  Everything that you do is just a little more complicated than it should be, there is always an extra step or button press.  Looting most things just takes a second but some stuff it takes 5 seconds, that may not seem like a big deal but after your hundredth mining node it gets a little annoying.  Also you should be aware, for the large monsters there is no such thing as a quick kill, solo it will take 15 minutes or more and with how the monsters can stun you and knock you around it can get extremely frustrating.

Over all I think it's a good game but there are to many little things that bother me for me to say it's great like everyone else.  I would recommend it but not at full price, unless you like grinding out those big monster kills over and over again.  You should watch some videos if you're not sure but who doesn't do that these days lol.

What's good about Monster Hunter as a series is that most of the community is pretty cool and great to help one another out. If you guys ever got questions, I'm sure myself and others on the site will do our best to assist to help you guys get more comfortable and to understand things. Never be afraid to ask the Monster Hunter community. (yes there are some sour pusses as there are in every fanbase but still giving that offer.)

Go Gigantic was a great game. I had a lot of fun with it. And it genuinely could get really intense. But the game was such a footnote. There was so little drive behind it. Great art style. Great gameplay. But at the end of the day, I never felt like the game was alive. Very few maps. And the gameplay did get repetitive with meh rewards. Not to mention the locked rotational roster. It felt like a game that anticipated some level of success and encouraged players to buy and try new characters but had not enough people that cared. And instead desperately needed something like Overwatch did, with an open unlocked roster. Another note I just tend to find. But games with dps/tank/healer formats seem to struggle. Overwatch again, it works because your healing is so evident, and when you play someone like Reinhardt you know its working because everyone is behind you and alive. But in Gigantic, very few characters aside from the heavy dps ones felt like their impact on the game was meaty and responsive at times and that weight behind your play is such a big deal these days.

I love seeing Adam in more content recently and his show with Marcus is great! It'd be great if he could be in some let's plays, I really miss How To :(. 

Hi Everyone!!!!  I have a question that perhaps you guys can help me with.  I was currently inspired by Adam and started getting into board games.  I am wondering if there are any Dungeon crawler style board games that can play with 4 - 8 people and a lengthy campaign (10 - 12 hours) .  Any suggestions would be great.  Thanks everyone, this community is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!
