Yeah, I love it. I just use Palamutes all the time. X3 Took me 67 hours to complete all Key Quests for Village and Hub, to get to the point where nothing else shows up top-right corner of the screen now, while in the Village any place.

...I would have gotten to that point early in this month, if it weren't for The Elder Scrolls Online having events for doubled rate of Experience Point gain until the 15th...though toward the end of that stretch I did already start deviating more and more toward Monster Hunter Rise.

Pardon the bit of rambling. ^^' Really cute fan art, by the way! Nice work. :3

Haha no worries it was fun to listen to, and I'm glad you like my art! I had a friend who had gotten really into ESO. Tried it myself a while back and it was fun just got invested in other things a little while after.

As for MHR I have no idea how long it took me to complete both village and hub quests myself but I'm at around 190 hours played already lmao.

Damn, that's a lot for a game that has been out for only 4 weeks! Nice. Well HR Cap is raising soon, and I am of the understanding that your work after reaching HR7 will carry over, once that update goes up by the end of this month. I'm hoping it also raises the Buddy Level cap past 35, to like...50, I would guess, if so.

Been a lot of fun, I really don't feel like stopping playing it even though I can't get a lot more out of it. I'm already geared up pretty well at this point, and I have a buddy Level 35 already, with others soon to follow, one in particular that is already 34.

Monster hunter is in my top 3 favorite game franchises alongside SoulsBorne and Elder Scrolls series. Started playing back on the PSP. I remember being excited for monster hunter Freedom's release lol. (Ironically the flagship monster for this upcoming HR raise is one of the last monsters I remember fighting on the PSP x3.)

Lol don't underestimate the game, theres likely so much content ahead of you still. All you need to do is start looking into picking up new weapons or making off meta builds for your main. I've got a build for 10/14 weapons on this one so far. It's really fun to see how the fights feel differently from one weapon to the next. That being said having a reliable friend group to play with definitely makes going through this grind much more worthwhile too. And don't worry, each time they raise the HR cap they are essentially just adding on a new level of missions for you to go off of. Nothing will be lost between here and there.

I'm more interested in Buddy Level cap hopefully being raised, too, not even so much the Hunter Rank, though that will just naturally go up with play, so that's fine, but I imagine will have little to no impact on actual gameplay, unless they lock more new craftable Jewels behind it or something.

But yeah, huge Elder Scrolls fan as well! MH Rise is actually the only MH game I've really gotten into. MH World felt too unforgiving and solo unfriendly to me... I took to Rise so much better. So much more enjoyable for me.
