Hello everyone!

Another very busy week, didn’t really play much at all. And recently my DualSense (PS5 controller) started drifting and options button stopped working, so sent it for repairs, which means no PS5 games for few days. Which leaves:

  • New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe Still in water level, I paused the game and left it in sleep mode, which one of my kid closed, so I lost all progress since last castle. Had to replay all that. Now at the final castle of Water level.
  • Dragon Quest XI Played some more, killed a boss, and finished all the open available side quests. Now to next main quest.

What about you all? What are all of you playing? Or planning to play next?

    Ah, well World has Tailrider Safari, but that’s only 3 Palicos (which is just one group). And Palico level up when they are on hunt with you, but there aren’t any training or anything.

    And yeah, I just checked, you can go inside the camp and change equipment. I didn’t actually check if you can only change armour or change weapon too, but there’s a button for change equipment.

    I finally defeated Pink Rathian! Just captured it. Upgraded my weapon to Thunder one (Pulsar Shotel III), and finally got it. Now I think it’s time to hunt Nergigante, but I am going to upgrade my armour first. Thinking about farming Rathian (normal one, not Pink). Much better than Bone, and I already have most of the stuff, just need some more.

    Sorry to hear about your JoyCon. I also got my Switch at launch, and it has seen some rough use, but fortunately everything works fine. Though when using docked I prefer Pro Controller, it’s really good. Maybe give it a try?

      Ahh that makes sense. I only remember switching out entire sets when I was doing a 3 monster hunt on a time limit, so I think it likely includes weapons to switch out.

      And congrats on getting it finally!!! That taste of victory is always sweet!

      I love grinding for armor, that “to get” list that alerts you when you have all the components needed makes planning out armor builds a breeze. That’s one qol update that I really miss in MHGU.

      As for the joycons, it’s no big deal anymore. I already dropped some money trying new joycons, and that didn’t work so I’ll just cut my losses and deal with not having a dockable switch. It’s not like I used it a lot before, it probably stopped working on one of my long breaks from the switch lol

        Ooh, I forgot about the “to get” list. I should probably start using it 😀

        And Thanks! It really feels great, after being stuck for so long, finally beating it.
