Monster Hunter World tips to help you excel in the hunt ​

I have Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate on my 3DS and it was really fun for what it was. I'm really interested in this open world take on the game. I'm gonna wait a bit on it though. The next game on my list at the moment is DW9 and I gotta get my open world hack'n'slash hit!

I have added this to my list but will likely wait for PC release later in the year when they have ironed out some issues & when I should have some more free time. Unless of course anyone buys it me for my birthday, though my backlog is pretty large right now I am making progress at least.

Was that a hint? That sounds so much like a hint. :lol: “Please Queeeeen, buy me Monster Hunter :'(“

My backlog is pretty huge myself. I massive sin bin of games that are gathering dust as we speak. Sad really.

:lol: More a hint to the wife though doubt she would read this unfortunately.

Yeah I have had games for gold building up every month, Humble Bundle games every month, other free game deals I’ve posted in my thread and that’s without the games I’ve actually purchased separately on Steam and ones I’ve recieved for Christmas etc. Got Dishonored 2 still in wrapper from 2 Christmas’s ago and just haven’t had time to play it.

Same thing happened with Dishonored and when I did play it eventually I loved it and felt ashamed it had taken me so long to get round to it. I shall make some time when backlog has cleared a little and been working my way through shorter games to thin herd. Hence why ive been reluctant to get Monster Hunter World at moment and want to wait for PC version.

I try not to worry about it too much. Just play what you want; when you want. Otherwise gaming just becomes a chore and that's not what gaming is meant to feel like imo.

Yeah I have to be quite economical with time and been trying my best to play most of the highly rated games Ive heard about just so I can talk to people about them while people are still into them. Otherwise by time I get to play them and share experiences with people, they have long moved onto other games.

Just cant keep up however so ive just been playing through games that appeal to me most and working my way through those, though some games I love (The Witcher III) have had to be put on back burner for now as they were eating up hundreds of hours. I played nothing else for about 6 months and missed some gems in that time so now working my way through shorter games & will go back to it.
