You can also just unequip the gun before firing, but that breaks immersion. If I recall correctly, the XM16 and AK47 became essentially unusable because a soft press aims and hard press fires. But on the Vita the gun always instantly fires if you try to aim it.
I always loved the progression from gathering by hand, to having a farm to grow things and having Felynes to send and gather stuff for you. I was a little bit disappointed that newer titles ditched the farm from Freedom Unite, it had a certain charm that other titles couldn’t match.
I agree the Ancient Forest was a maze. I think the Egg delivery quest always served a very good purpose to teach players a map. You had to try and find a good and efficient route, so naturally you would learn the paths from the starting area all the way to the top.
It just boggles me that these apex predetors all simply chill around the area just to be killed. It should be emphasized that these monsters are usually in areas unaccessible by Hunters. And the area that we play in is their common hunting grounds. And that’s why those beasts of which some are literal gods are so easy to kill, because they are outside of their natural habitat.
It doesn’t make any sense why Nergigante is such a big threat in World, but then you just kill 10 of them casually. And there’s also a tempered version, which somehow wasn’t the main threat of the story even though it would wipe the floor with normal Nergigante.
I always hated that High Rank is outside the main story line. The most difficult monster off the game should mark the end of the main story, not some random High Rank quest.
You’ve picked up on how much easier it is now to get to monsters, and finding monsters on the map. We received feedback that they were kind of difficult to get to sometimes, especially in maps that are very vertical where you have lots of different geographical elements. And, with the introduction of the Seikret, it’s easier for players to figure out where to go, and where to find monsters on the field.
That is probably my biggest critique of recent titles. It always feels like bigger monsters aren’t part of the environment, they are just there to be killed by the Hunter. If getting to the boss is so easy, what’s even the point of having a open world? Why isn’t every fight in an arena?
What also break immersion is the fact that you have to farm a monster like 15 times. By the 5th time your fight, items and approach is so optimized that it is barely a challange, you are just running through the motions. I always wanted fights to be more opportunistic. Instead if selecting a quest with you monster you’d have to wait for it to appear randomly (or even with some provocation). Sometimes you’d have to break of a fight if a higher priority monster shows up or you’re under prepared. Being able to teleport to your item box without penalty takes away all stakes off the fight. You can never run out of ammo, potions, traps etc… Fights should be longer and harder but way more rewarding. You should be able to select which parts you want to carve.
Also the are often times odd outlier quest which have you facing a monster outside its usual environment. But the monsters never change their behavior. Diablos should not be able to burry itself in solid rock, Rathalos should not be able to freely fly in a dense forest with trees, etc.
I’m afraid that this will be another step away for players who actually enjoy the hunting part instead of the mindless killing part.
Classic Controls? The PS2 and 3 controllers had pressure sensitive face buttons used for aiming, shooting and lowering the gun. One of the things that the PS Vita and Switch remake could never properly replicate. I doubt this will be handled well in Delta.
So can’t I, what’s your point?
Jane (Krysten Ritter) from Breaking Bad. Because… just look at her.
I’m on the 4th book but finished the series. How does she have any red flags? Given what she’s been through and her profession, she seems to be fairly well composed individual. Great friend and always kind to the people important to her. It’s like dating a trucker, them not being around often and being somewhat detached comes with the territory of their profession.
It felt like Rise undid a lot of that. I don’t know whether it’s because of the limitation of the Switch, but Rise felt lifeless compared to World. Monster Hunters problem in general is that after a few hours it starts to feel like a Boss Rush mode and the ecosystem gets neglected. Instead of a Hunter you become a Killer.
Yes. The way it works now is:
But presumably with the new system, your computer will just receive a continuous bitstream with ads embedded in them. What was previously happening on your machine through HTML or JavaScript and was detectable by ad blockers, will now happen on YouTube servers beholind the scenes.
The whole point of having ads be separate from the video is for youtube to easily distance itself from malicious ads. If an ad is malicious it can easily be reported and taken out of commission. But if ads are now part of the video, what stops an ad from being an ISIS beheading clip in the middle of a video made for children? If there is still a way to still report it, then there is a way to recognize the ad.
Also how will this interfere with creators? Editing a video and giving it a proper pace is already a huge challenge. But now ads can just be automaticaly cut into it without the creators control? That’s gonna fuck up so many quality channels. That’s already a big problem with the current system, bit at least you can skip or block them.
What the hell are these points?
Steam forces developers to ask for higher prices?
Ah, yes, because Activision is so eager to sell Call of Duty for just $20 but big bad Steam is just forcing their hand and they have to sell it for $70. See if you look at their own store where they can set their own prices its… also $70… hmm, that’s weird. Maybe others… nope same prices across all platforms. Almost like publishers can actually freely decide on their prices.
Steam also forces customers to buy DLCs for games on their platform.
Well, how else is this going to work? I buy a game on Steam and then call up the devs to venmo them $2 and they send me a DVD in the mail? Or should I make a new account on some other website and get my DLCs seperatly from there? Most games don’t even sell you DLCs, they sell you credits so you can unlock content that’s already in the game. Often times you have to buy those credits trough the devs website and link your account to Steam. That’s already a pain it the ass.
Steam takes 30% of the cut.
True, that sound like a lot. Imagine you’re a solo Dev and you’ve been working 9 years on a game. 3 of those years you’ve essentially been working just to pay off Steam. But look at what you get for those 3 years. You get a seperate store page for your product that you can essentially design however you want. You get access to high speed distribution servers all over the world, that also allow you to effortlessly push updates out, the option for regional pricing, the industries most reliable user review system, an integrated discussion and fan art forum, third party controller support (important for people with disabilities), and a refund system. Sure 30% still sounds like a lot, but would you be able to provide all this if you would’ve self publish the game, probably not.
Steam is consistently the cheapest option to buy games on sale. And even if it isn’t the cheapest, at no point in time have I thought, man Steam has this game for $7.49 but EGS has it for $6.99, I better get it on EGS. Maybe on GoG but no where else.
It’s mind boggling to think that through inflation and some shortages almost all groceries have nearly doubled in price over the last 20 years, but a AAA game is still $60, even though the cost of making a game has skyrocketed. Imagine gas prices would’ve stayed the same over the last 20 years and people would complian that gas station sandwiches would tast like shit.

And yet it still takes 4+ attemts to join a quickmatch and only they host can use the “remember scope” setting. Where the fuck is all this money going?
The Witcher. You can even transfer your save game between 1 & 2 and 2 & 3.

This is the “appdata” folder, this is where all the application’s data goes.
So whats the “Programs” folder then?
This is also where the application’s data and files go.
But I thought thats the “Programs x86” folder.
This is also where the application’s data and files go.
Ok whats “Program Files” then?
This is also where the application’s data and files go.
So my config file is in either one if those 4?
No thats in the “Documents” folder, obviously.
Windows program data file structure has always been the wild west.
Houseplants. I feel like they are slowly disappearing. My grandma has plants in nearly every window, but us younger folk would rather have a Displate with a picture if a plant instead if an actual plant.
