      10' is around the time you achieve when you're already very familiar with your weapon and that particular monster you're hunting
      Only speedrunners go under 10' and I'd say most people don't plan to prepare that hard for every hunt they do
      If you're not really "underleveled" it's normal to achieve 20'-30' on your first tries

      I'm on the opposite end. I play games by myself so I wish it was more single player friendly. But my gf really like this series so she like everyone in this MH cult tries to get everyone in existance into this MH mlm. I never playe dmuch with friends before so I wanna be good before I play with them cus I don't think anyone likes to play with someone letting them down. I just wish it was more single player friendly and better at teaching the player. Cus I don't think anyone likes to play with someone letting them down. I'm 20 hours in and I still don't know how to play. Games have gotten really good at interweaving tutorials with gameplay to the point where it doesn't take a tutorial. It has endless textboxes which I have long forgotten about cus I don't learn by reading. Even with fighting games you can figure out by playing to have fun and get started if you don't want to spend boring time spend int he training mode. I just want to play by myself. No need for other people and everyone says go to youtube to learn. But I find that to be.... cheating. I don't want to use TH-cam or have another person lecture me and telling me how to learn something. It's quite embarrassing having someone see you fail. It's not the learning curve which is difficult it is how it is communicated to the player. Like memorising the answer to a test.
      There are so many way to make learning how to play engaging I just wish it was more single player friendly and better at teaching the player, so someone else doesn't have to because I like playing in a bubble, just me and the game since I have a life and don't have time to spend 'learning' the game where I shouldn't need external resources to even get started. And it should be a good things since wouldn't the developer want more people to be invested by playing. The longer a player spends lost the less likely they will enjoy the game. Think about how many peopel dropped it cus they didn't know what the hell was going on like me if I don't figure out how to play some time soon and make my gf very angy since I criticised the game after playing for 4 hours. I got through the text boxes started a quest and hated it and made me feel shit cus I was so lost and helpless. I dunno why the developer hasn't caught on yet like every other one. I should need friends, other people or experts just to play a game.
      I don't know why so many games get shit on for not teaching how to play like Sonic Riders for example but MH gets a pass.

I then went on to World + Iceborne, and I have become obsessed with the series. Now me and my hunting buddies are waiting for Rise to drop so we can finally experience the latest game all together. I love everything about this series. The fighting mechanics, the music, the design, everything about it is top notch and shows that a lot of love and care went into these games.

    To anyone who reads this:
    If you’ve played MHW from 2018-2020 and played online.
    There was a small chance you might’ve joined my quest and to you, I just wanna say
    Thank you all for the fun Games we played, without ya’ll I would’ve NEVER been able to beat the game alone. You all helped me along the journey and have given me good laughs with the characters comments in game like when pinned by a monster lmao
    May this game’s community be forever blessed. I’ve never once seen such a community be so cooperative & friendly.
    Thank you all.

    but astronaut, you forgot the most important part of the switch axe, the part where it EXPLODES. Also, ice balloon shark is the best monster, but pandemic dragon takes a close second.

    The Hunting Horn has always been one of my favorite weapons in gaming. It's basicly like a big ass hammer you beat the enemy in the face with to knock them out while also providing buffs and heals to everyone.

    I got into monhun with 4u cause I read about the fishing minigame and animal crossing crossover stuff. Playing it I was like “Woah, theres some cool boss battles in between these fishing sessions!”
    Since then I’ve loved seeing the series evolve with its new mechanics and creatures, I’m trying to beat MHW:Icebourne before Rise comes out and that hub area is seriously a treat. Happy monhun month and great vid like always Capt.

    my first experience with monster hunter was the final fantasy xiv crossover (for the uninitiated, there is a battle instance where you go in with 8 players ((the "extreme" version makes you only go in with 4)) and halfway through the fight you're forced to only use potions to heal rather than your healers.) oh, and, once you defeat him you gather scales from his corpse to craft cosmetic gear and, if you hate yourself, farm it for scales to turn in for a mount version of rathalos. but jeez! i didn't realize just how much of a love letter it was to the game it comes from!!!
    this video, i think, was the final little push i needed. the gameplay loop just sounds damn fun-- it's constant progression, which i adore. and man, you're always keeping up with the killer editing and on-beat jokes. looking forward to the mh related videos this month! :D

      As a monster hunter series veteran and also veteran of ffxiv when the collab came out during stormblood it was almost like uncanny his attacks are basically identical to world so if you can fight a rathalos in monster hunter you know what attacks to expect in ffxiv and vice versa even though the style of game is so drastically different they made it translate so well into ffxiv. Monster hunter world also got behemoth as part of the crossover with xiv as well and cactuars as capturable pets in the maps and a big ol kulu ya ku chicken holding an aetheryte absorbing power and growing larger and being immune to status effects.

    Started all the way back in MHFU, my buddies and I saw this game for the first time and thought that we should try it out for the heck of it. This game has managed to keep its identity, while adding smaller features to make them just a bit more unique. The fact that you have hundreds of hours worth of content, and a ton of skill checks makes this game worth every damn cent. We preordered Rise, and we plan on starting from the very bottom again.

    The "hunting" part of Monster Hunter could be better. From what I understand World is probably the closest we have gotten (unable to play during its relevant years due to PC trouble) with investigations and scout flies, though even then that could use some work. Maybe a system in which prior knowledge is rewarded with bonuses or as you track it becomes easier to deduce where the monsters are instead of following the bug bread crumb trail.
