ALIVE ENOUGH TO DIE
I recently bought a Switch and was considering a Switch Pro controller for Rise and other things, but my old wired 360 controller is in dire need of replacement. Ended up killing two birds with one stone by preordering the 8BitDo Pro2 since the price was right and man do those back paddles look nice. I've always preferred the Playstation-style joystick placement to offset, too, so bonus!

<click> <click> What is it with this dancing?! Bouncing around like fools... I would have thought my own kind at least would understand the seriousness of our Adventurer's Guild!

Yeah I bought a basic 8bitdo, while the extra options would be nice it's never really what I'm looking for from a controller. I did some test hunts in the Rise demo, especially shifting around with Gyro aiming with gunner weapons. It felt good after a little initial awkwardness, so I'll probably play it for keeps. And I didn't wanna wait for a controller either, wanted it ASAP.

How are the 8bitdo controllers? Build quality, buttons, stuff like that. Do they last long?

Let the fools who stand before us be destroyed by the power you and I possess.
Wait the 8BD Pro has gyro? Well gently caress.

I've had nothing but great experiences with the couple of controllers I've used.

Some people complained the Pro+ had input lag issues on the Switch specifically but I never encountered that so it might've been fixed/not common. I beat all of Celete's B and C-sides on the switch with an 8bitdo controller so if there was input lag I'd probably have noticed lol.

Also awaiting the Pro2 whenever they release it in my region.

is Rise launching with G-rank or is it going to be a World sort of situation

The initial release of any MH game come with Low and High Rank only. G-Rank is reserved for Ultimate editions or as an expansion in World's case.

I hope with Rise it's just an expansion and not a rerelease, or I guess it could be both and just have an upgrade path.

Rereleases are probably a thing of the past, considering every new MH game is going to be on a console that easily supports DLC.

I think they'll do the World strategy again since they're planning on doing a Steam release. Even Pokemon, who does the two different versions of the game that are identical, seems to have gone the way of doing DLC instead of a full re-release
