Posted by NeoGutsman on August 19, 2015 at 02:39:24 EST in reply to Oh wow, I had no idea there was ANY customisation having only played the demo. That's a bit better, but still sounds imperfect. It doesn't matter though because I can't play it unless I get a new 3DS, as either way it's unplayable without that second stick. (n/t) from aerisdead.
This was a pretty good demo as far as offering an "easy" mode for learning the ropes. The actual game eases players into the game really well, though. It's not perfect but it's apparently light years better than previous MHs. I was really apprehensive about even getting the game (actually, the limited edition MH4 system + game) but I'm really glad I did. Another thing I liked were the Palicos (little warrior cats) whom you can level up and bring with you on missions. There's a whole meta game with the cats I won't get into here but let's just say you can really customize, level them up, and armor and weapon them up. I can't count how many things they've farmed for me during battle (and outside of battle) not to mention save my actual ass during big battles. I really love having little minions like this with me.
One time they healed me, and after swapping out some other Palicos I recruited they jumped on the eyes of a big monster and blinded it while I ran away and healed. That was so... I dunno, I thought that was a real "moment" in the game for me.
