My Return to Azeroth and Beyond

Image
            Hello! So I’m a big fat liar. Last post I said I made some alts to level when Dragonflight came out, they’ve been leveled. I said I wasn’t going to buy Shadowlands, it’s been bought (though now it’s free until the 5 th , typical). I said I was going to basically replace/retire my shaman and priest for the new allied races but that’s not quite true either, so let me bore you with what I’ve been doing.             I’ve been making, deleting and remaking alts for the last few weeks. @NEETproxy made a Vulpera rouge and I made a Nightborne priest, I think I said in my last post I pretty much only like playing shaman and preist. He brought up questing around with these characters and I was like “sure, why not.” Well we got them to 50 in like two weeks. I had the name Megamilk saved since like, Warlords and just haven’t felt like actually using it. She was a Tauren warrior but then I thought it...

I Play WoW!

Image
              Hello! Sooooo I’ve been playing World of WarCraft again. Usually I come back around to WoW when I’m super bored and I have nothing else to do. I’ve been watching Asmongold a little bit on Youtube and seeing some stuff on Dragonflight got me interested.             I remember the last time I played I was trying to get the Highmountain Tauren and the Zandalari Trolls but then I couldn’t remember when that was exactly. I know I haven’t touched WoW since Shadowlands and that came out like a year and a half ago so when I logged in it said last time I played was in February 2020. Two and a half years. It feels like longer, but anyway, with Shadowlands they did another level squish. My shaman was max level but apparently my priest wasn’t which surprised me. They made getting the allied races easier so I decided to try to get the Highborne Elves and level up my Priest. I wanted to get a few...

Watch Order

Image
             Hello! I’ve been sitting on this topic for a while, just never got around to bringing it up. I wanted to talk about or maybe even ask about the watch order of certain movies, animes, franchises, ect.             My first time watching The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi online, it was in the order that it aired on television. For those that don’t know, Haruhi aired out of sequence or like, not in a chronological sort of order. I remember the episode where Haruhi signed the group up to play baseball and Mikuru was in a nurse’s outfit. Up to that point she had always been in a maids outfit and no one said anything! I was so confused, I figured Kyon, at least, would question it but no, not one bit. An episode or two later Haruhi asks Kyon what he’d like to see Mikuru wear next and one of her suggestions was a nurse’s outfit. I really enjoyed how they were able to make the show work with b...

What the Future of Monster Hunter Could Be

Image
            Hello! Maybe one day I’ll have all my ideas together at one time. Probably not but you know how it is. So this is just a dream situation I guess, things I’d really like to see in Monster Hunter that will probably never come to be and some things that Proxy and I discussed. A long while ago, before Rise came out, I talked about what I’d like “ the next Monster Hunter ” to be like. That idea was probably too ambitious for the Switch but I still like the overall concept and I’ll probably refer to it once or twice.             One thing that I really liked with Generations Ultimate and Rise is the ability to select different “styles” or moves for your weapon. I almost wish it was more customizable to the point where each move, each part of the combo could be changed with two or three options. There’s some moves that I just don’t like, don’t use or because they are there, they get in my way of...

Wind Element and More

Image
         Hello! Probably gonna be short, maybe. Hopefully. I just wanted to talk a little bit more in depth about wind element being added to Monster Hunter. You know, “in depth” isn’t saying much for me. My initial thought to add wind was because it’s the only common element that we don’t have in the game but I thought for like two more seconds and realized “earth” isn’t in the game either. But when I think about it earth could just be considered weapons that have raw damage only. Weapons and armor form the hardiest of monsters, Diablos, Duramboros, Uragaan, those sorts.             So as I’ve mentioned before, most of the monsters I would consider “wind based” usually have their element as water/ice (because wind can be cold and wet I guess?) or nothing at all and be put into raw damage. I know wind elements in other games tend to make the weapon hit more than once so maybe that could be the wind gimmick...

Sunbreak and Beyond

Image
           Hello! Sunbreak is almost here and I can’t help but be more excited about what comes next after Sunbreak. I see things about people not liking what Rise has done, I see people saying the moves are too flashy and I’ve been seeing Capcom saying Sunbreak is a “massive expansion” but what does that mean?             To the people that think Rise is too easy or the hunts are too fast and the moves are too flashy; I think they forget that Rise was made to played on the go, get in get out sort of thing. It was made more for the Japanese, on the go lifestyle they have. I do agree that as far as hub quests go it is easier but that’s because since World they made the monsters scale with the player count. I’m not a big fan of that. I haven’t had to play with randos since Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on the WiiU at it’s a little sad. I use to follow someone during GenU on Twitter who would 1v1 monsters wi...

Why Do We Like Guns So Much?

Image
          Hello! I tried to do this before but I ran into a problem right out of the gate. My original question was “why are the most popular competitive games FPS’?” and my initial quick research showed that they aren’t. FPS’ make about half of the top multiplayer games when you look at Twitch or highest pay out eSports games or whatever, it’s about 50/50, even less than that because some of the games on the list are things like PlayerUnknown’s Battleground and then PUBG mobile. So my original post on this was rather short and not great to be honest so I thought I’d try again. And I’ll try not to put too much of my political opinions in here, I’m sure you can already guess where I stand if you’ve read other things I’ve written and it’s not like I have any regular readers to offend :P But there have been some YouTubers I’ve stopped watching because they’ve gotten away from their initial channel purpose and have gone more political and all it does is get me mad....
