Discussion Beginning to play Rise, after coming from ~1000 hours in world.

33 Upvotes

I really enjoy it. The combat doesn't feel quite as.. impactful? I suppose? It doesn't feel like I'm lugging around a huge weapon (switch axe main) that slams into the monster. I've read about other people having a similar experience with Rise after coming from world, but does this change later into the game? (I haven't played much yet since I just started university.)

But anyway, as a person who LOVES movement in games, Rise is a complete breath of fresh air from world, with the wirebugs and the convenience of palamutes. Plus, not having to track every monster to max (or remember their spawn locations) is a really nice change of pace. Plus, I feel like the combat feels so much more consistent, where before I would occasionally get hit by an attack that I know I should've dodged through or been out of, I feel like in Rise what I see is exactly what I get.

What did you guys think about your change from World to Rise? Anyone else having similar experiences, different experiences, or other thoughts?

(I would've gone straight to Wilds but I already had Rise and I'm kinda broke, but I'm excited to experience the switch from World & Rise to Wilds, since I've heard it's a massive step up in QoL & branches the combat of the two together quite well!)

MHGen I read "slay 10 Great Maccao" so naturally I procrastinated the quest and I grinded for 10 hours to even have a chance at beating this hell. The shock on my eyes when I read the description again before starting the mission... [First time player - I have 13 hours on the game]

Discussion What's your favorite monster titles

20 Upvotes

There are more known ones like arkveld being The White Wraith and nu udra being the black flame but almost every monster has a title and I think that's really cool, some one's I really like off the top of my head are

tigrex-​absolute power

seregios-thousand blade wyvern (Steve)

barioth-sub zero white knight

chameleos-phantom of the deep forest

There's also some monster's that have disappointingly lame titles like legiana being the wind drifting wyvern, and seltas queen being the heavy shell insect
