I like Hulk and Magneto's grown on me, but yeah. The Thing just feels really fun to play

Ah, I'm on PC for World/Iceborne, but I'll definitely keep that in mind for when I start Sunbreak. Thank you

Ooh, good to know! I did finish both base games, but with praise that high, it sounds like Iceborne is the winner for now

Dawnshore is pretty bland imo. The bath house quest and the refugees in Shantytown are good (and helpful for the region's final quest) and the Dawntreader one where you search for a lost expedition is interesting, but it didn't click for me until the next region, Emerald Stair

Yeah I was worried at the start when they were like "you don't have weapons!??!" but the idea of cooperation and learning from each other ended up being really good

Best art direction? The one that produced a giant fluffy pink hippo-monkey head for your Palico
Best soundtrack? The one you can listen to while traveling with a Palico wearing a giant fluffy pink hippo-monkey head, etc etc
This is completely reasonable

TIL the Eris fight in Hades 2 is a lot easier when you treat it like an Elden Ring encounter and dash toward/through Eris instead of running away or around

Not a criticism btw. One of the game's best parts is how human everyone is, how the little, unchecked everyday evils - pride, vanity, greed, ambition - at every level of society create an environment where much bigger evils can grow

Love it (hate it) when a piece tries saying something Big about gender and ends up reinforcing binary stereotypes anyway. If you don't know how to write it, find someone who does!

4. Conclave (2024) All that tension and mystery gets resolved far too easily, and it ends with a statement that, on the Scale of Profoundness, is roughly equal to Walmart putting a rainbow flag in a tweet during June

Fr, and it's completely mind-boggling that it's been 11 years since MK8 released
