Hello everyone. I hope everything has been going okay. This week I continued my Western Roman Empire campaign in Total War Attila. The Huns have been defeated, the interior of the empire is secure, and all that remains is uniting the eastern half of the empire. Easier said than done

I downloaded Monster Hunter World again. I tried it a couple years ago and bounced off of it immediately. It was just super clunky and had way too many walls of text in the tutorial which i naturally skipped. Obviously i didn't know how anything worked because i skipped the tutorials.

I uninstalled it again, but came back to it a few months later. Same result. I did this a couple more times until now.

Now, I have been playing it for 40hrs and it is pretty fun. I don't know what changed within me though. I still skipped all tutorials, but figured out how the game mechanics work by myself and i switched to a different weapon than the previous times (switch axe over the bow gun).

One more important thing is that i am cheating lol. I have an overlay that tells me the health of the monster and it's status effects. It also shows the monster through the walls, but that doesn't matter as much because you already have a quest marker of the monster when you track it. The overlay is pretty helpful in figuring out if i am doing enough damage or if i need to upgrade my weapon though.

After this i might go back to expedition 33 because there are new updates or the final fantasy 7 remake since i haven't played any FF games yet.

Honestly just switching to one of the melee weapons was probably what did it, imo the bowguns are very boring and also take the most downtime preparation.
