I think this is a silly question but Rise is going to run at 30fps right?

Some of the videos make it seem smoother.

It's not beyond the realm of possibility that they're using an early PC build to show off the game in videos. The demo seems to have some slow-down occasionally, so I'm bracing myself for a "less than rock-solid 30 FPS" experience.

Yeah this is kinda what I’m afraid of. I know the switch isn’t super powerful and all but a nice consistent 30 would be great.

Any idea how big of a download this is?

The preload is is like 7.1 GB on disk.

Nice!

Now who is getting the deluxe version? Obviously it’s all cosmetic stuff but ya know...

Is Rise Deluxe physical only?

No you can get it on the eshop as well. Its on the same page.

You can also get the deluxe stuff separate but it’s $15

Dual Blades review (includes the other switch skills so slight spoiler)

Aerial DBs are B A C K :getin: They brought back the ONE thing I was missing the most from Iceborne I'm so loving happy.

They're talking about how degenerate evade extender / window can get with the new demon modes is seriously hyping me up

I was just about to link this! Dual Blades looks legit.

Does anyone here have the Hori Split Pad Pro? I get the feeling I'm going to want to play handheld sometimes and that the joycons are not going to be particularly comfortable for that.

I have it and it’s fantastic. I just wish it had more weight to it. It feels a little flimsy IMO

As someone who is also disappointed, I can think of several other things that are worse than "Missing an Unlock Time that was never official in the first place and was only a best guess"

Sorry but I can’t.

You can pause whenever by pressing the home button on the controller but it won’t save while on a mission.

Yeah I put my switch to sleep in the middle and came back just fine. Works great!

Has anyone done the Amiibo scanning yet?

Does it just need to be MH ones?

What did you get from it?

For hammer, don't forget you can swap back to the default charge mode to instantly get a full charge, that can help you squeeze in a max charge impact crater just at the end of a knockdown.


Non MH amiibos get you a random draw at the lottery, so a couple free consumable items. Not a big deal.

What do the MH specific ones get you?

Some special layered armor the first time you scan them, afterwards they function the same as any amiibo.

Mangnamalo also unlocks the Fish Collar Armor Piece for Palico and Shuriken Collar Armor Piece for Palamute, as I understand it.

Nice! Is there any truth to the rumor that the MH Stories give stuff? I heard that thrown around.

Ok how the heck do you get the BBQ? I looked at the menu options and I just can’t find it. The tool tip didn’t help either.

Probably dumb question but does the monhunrise edition pro controller work with the game? Box says it only works with software that lists pro controller compatible on it and either I'm blind or rise doesn't list that on the box.

It’s just a regular pro controller with a fancy paint job.

Apologies if this was covered / asked but with stories 2 is it like an actual sequel or is it like stories 1 but ++.

I have stories 1 that I was going to play through but if 2 is just 1 (obviously the story is different) but a lot better maybe I should skip 1?

I looked on YouTube but I didn’t see any 1 to 2 comparisons.

It's a straight up sequel, complete with returning characters that are now older.

Ok thanks! I’ll give 1 a play through then since I already have it.

I beat Stories 1 yesterday and honestly I think you'd be fine with skipping it. The story is incredibly basic and the characters are so surface-level that you probably won't be missing out on anything. The early-game is pretty easy and the lategame has some issues that I would mostly describe as "The game playing rock-paper-scissors against itself and frequently deciding that the hand they played on your behalf lost" that it sounds like Stories 2 fixed a lot of

Hmm ok that gives me something to think about. I've got 1 on my phone (which plays really really well tbh) and I think I might just give it a shot for a bit and see how it goes.

2 does look really good so if I don't totally bounce off 1 I'll be giving it a shot.

Do we think Rise is going to come to PC at some point? I seem to recall that being on the table.
