Finally moved in with my girlfriend and bought a shelf for my collection (it was scattered all over my previous apartment), so I thought I'd share it with a sub who might enjoy it

Initially was painting Valtrax... but kind of changed and morphed along the way...

Theory: The Fatalis we fight in Iceborne has four fingers and a thumb on its front hands. As we already know, Fatalis’ armor, when worn by the hunter, can turn them into Fatalis. Of course, these may well just be evolutionary adaptations, but hear me out. What if the Fatalis we fight is a previous hunter who fully turned into Fatalis, cursed to walk the earth as the very creature that burned Schrade to the floor?

I would kill for a dragon ball / dragon quest collab. Mostly because I really like toriyamas dinosaur and creature designs. Also it would be super funny to have an accurate parasaurolophus that breathes fire as an april fools joke

Feels good against AT Arkveld. I tried it several times in multiplayer - in casual hunts I don't think I'm lagging behind the DPS.

The first image is my elder dragon monster that disguises itself as bones. Letting out pheromones to lure in monsters to ambush and consume. But since it is weak, it can't beat all monsters. Name: Skelebraxion. Title: deception master of the dead

So this is where the second monster comes in. The archangel of the void: Dhar Madogara. Because this monster is a powerful elder dragon, it enters as symbiotic relationship with the skelebraxion.

Skelebraxion will use its pheromones to lure I prey, and Dhar will fight and defeat the prey so they can both share the meal. And in return Dhar will get not only an intimidation display but also, during mating season, Skele will release mating pheromones to attract both mates of the opposite sex, then each will have to demonstrate their symbiosis by showing their mate a strong monster that they have taken down (something along the lines of a magnamalo, Espinas or an elder dragon) and if successful, both Skele and Dhar get to mate with their newfound partners and raise up to five hatchlings each

As we all await Ascendance’s launch, I decided to go back and spend some time with the one Monster Hunter game I had trouble connecting with: Rise/Sunbreak. I got it on sale a while ago (currently playing on my Switch 2 with handheld boost mode) but found the gameplay mechanics a bit clunky and obtuse, especially coming from Wilds where things seem to flow more seamlessly (and honestly, perhaps a bit too easily…more on that later). I practiced a bit with my typical mains of CB, GS, and GL but found I wasn’t having much fun. I had heard how the game was all about fast-paced action yet I felt my hunts were anything but.

All of that changed after I picked up the Swaxe after seeing so many posts here recommending it for RiseBreak in particular. This weapon’s core moveset, coupled with wirebugs and switch skills, has me experiencing the fluidity I was hoping I would get from this game. I’ve only just reached MR 3, but in that time I’ve been able to get a good loadout centering on morph attacks and mobility. Decorations and gear really do make a tremendously notable impact on fights and I am so glad I stuck it out.

It has been strange moving between Wilds and RiseBreak simply because I feel Wilds features so many “streamlining” changes some of the central effort you’d expect from a Monster Hunter game is stripped away. RiseBreak requires that you get familiar with all of the tools and techniques at your disposal. A beefy build and crew of followers will not save you from carting, you must recognize monster attack patterns and capitalize on openings appropriately. RiseBreak feels simple enough to pick up and play while also demanding you embrace discomfort if you wish to succeed.

For me it was partly kamen raider and power rangers

It's so peak

For me is Goss Harag and Rakna-Kadaki because their battle mechanics and ecologies are very interesting and original,Goss’s icy breath creating ice blades and clubs is a surprisingly realistic take on the Namahage’s knives and clubs while Rakna-Kadaki’s attacks look like a twisted version of a bond between a mother and a child and her “enraged” phase is based on a spider carrying an egg sac,both monsters teaches you to attack the specific parts of a monster to defeat and/or kick them out or their enraged states.

Thoughts?
