I’ve been playing monster hunter rise lately after finishing Wilds, and I notice how acrobatic your character is when traversing the environment. My hunter can run up walls, run along walls, backflip from ledges, etc.

But the coolest maneuver was after you’re done with wyvern riding and your hunter would leap from the monster and perform this really cool flip and mid air twist. It’s impractical af, but man does it look cool.

I was disappointed to see that it’s stripped away in Wilds. Like yeah there’s traversal mechanics, but my hunter doesn’t seem to do those front flips, backflips, or mid air twists anymore. Maybe it’s because here you’re just an experienced hunter whereas in Rise you’re practically a ninja. But does anyone want these acrobatic moves to come back in the next monster hunter game?

Everyone familiar with the source material and the Trojan war knows there’s a scene where Hector’s young son get killed in it. Now since The Odyssey is supposed to be a crowd pleasing summer blockbuster, how do you think Nolan will depict this scene without turning many people off? The scene is rather brutal too.

Will it just not show up?

This might seem like a stupid question, since the switch 2 is better than the switch oled as far as console performance goes. But, there are some things about the battery life that make me hesitate.

I’ve found a store that’s willing to buy my switch oled and purchase a switch 2 at a significant discount. Now I’m very tempted to get the switch 2 because of how the boost mode improves the performance of my switch 1 library and the fact that I can run ps4-ps5 era games on this hardware.

But, the battery life is what’s keeping me hesitant. It drains in only 2 hours or less when compared to the oled. This would’ve been fine if the switch 2 is going to be docked, but I personally got the switch because I wanted a handheld console that I could play in bed. The flexibility of being able to play a game on a flat screen tv then play it while I’m lying in bed is one of the major selling points. And sometimes I could spend between 2-4 hours playing a game while in bed, so the battery life really concerns me.

Is it really that bad? Do any of you prefer your switch 2 over your oled? Does it impact your gaming sessions as much when using it as a handheld?
