Spoiler that shit, for fucks sake.

Lucky I just hit the start of this storyline so it's not a total surprise.

No it's worse because now you described something that happens in the fight and spoiled me twice.

Watching this fight right now, this is a really good boss fight. Liking the breakbeat soundtrack for the parkour parts

Edit: Holy shit just got to the part where you-know-what wizard does the you know what thing LMAO

This is back to being terrible

More great times in the game.

Bounties are open and some of the crafting gear upgrades are nice to warrant the VERY monster hunter lite design there. About ready to enter Titan's mission stuff and saved right there as I won't have time to play until Next Thursday/Friday. I do side quests as they pop up and as you go some of the rewards get better - IE: Strong healing Potions and Hi Potions, Chocobo, etc and other unlocks. The Renown system has kicked in so another reason to do them some decent rewards in there and music tracks.

Will probably be able to wrap this up next weekend.

I have to admit I’m struggling to see where abilities will hit in graphics mode when I start dodging around. It feels like the motion blur is fucking with me.

Also, this spitting you out with full potions on the phase you died on feels “wrong.” I intentionally didn’t use the easy mode jewelry or settings. Game feels like it won’t really have challenge until NG+.

I am old so unless it is dark souls I like playing this in easy mode

That's what I was talking about, and yes. Never feels like I really win anything, but more like I threw lives at it or something. Unless I win in one shot, so I try to do that.

Monster Hunter is probably the biggest "thing I should really like, but wasn't able to get into at all" out there. I tried with MH3U, MH4U, and I think even Rise and couldn't get into any of them. The lack of a lock-on totally killed them all for me. Seriously, who makes a game with Souls-style combat and doesn't give it a lock-on? All I remember from, say, MH3U was running around trying to hit small foes with a giant greatsword and constantly swinging at the air.

Also, just running around killing wildlife isn't really my jam. I liked the Hunts in FF12 and 13 because you were hunting down various menaces that were terrorizing the land. In MH it's more like "kill this large wolf and her six children who are just minding their own business in a cave somewhere" and it felt fuckin' weird.

Mainly the lock-on though, it not having that was a real "WTF" for me. But whatever, MH has its legions of fans so it was doing something right. I've heard MH World / Iceborne is the best so I'm willing to give that another try eventually.

I mean it isn't really a surprise that you fight Bahamut, considering the game seems to be all about fighting Eidolons and he's like the king of Eidolons across this whole series. I assumed he was in it since the get-go. I'm wondering if Leviathan and Asura will show up though.

I think fighting Titan might be the next phase of the game for me. Haven't played in two days, but I'll have some time tonight probably. I really like the Titan guy and wish he was playable. Game would be better in general with multiple playable eidolon-people which is what I thought it was going for at the beginning.

Anyone know about how far along the Titan fight is (when I get to it)? I think I have around 10 hours played (the PS dashboard tells you even if the game doesn't) and wondering how long I can expect this thing to be.
