@Spanjard It feels like it!

The default now is that adding double nits automatically does a melody and applies the buff to the team. So you don't have to perform to buff everyone with all buffs at once.

But,i just unlocked the ability to just tap ZR and it plays any notes on my bar and does their affects for the team, like a mini-perform. Then I can still do the regular perform. This is nice if there's a buff or affect you want up constantly. Like healing or something.

@Strumpan Ahhh I see.

The issue I had with stuff like having to constantly use paintball and buy hot/cold drinks was that they were making you have to solve problems that they themselves created. It's like someone making you pay to stop beating you up and then they wonder why you aren't greatful.

As for the monster thing and being able to see on the map when you can capture it... I'll be honest, I didn't notice until a tool tip told me that was a thing. I still only noticed when the monster was weak when my hunter said something and I noticed it limping.

Then again, I played prowler in ultimate so I was already used to seeing when a monster could be captured, and support palicoes would always tell me as well.

@Strumpan "if that was the best way to play the game, they could have done so in the earlier games also."

That sounds kinda like you're saying that no improvements to the game can be made since, if improvements COULD be made, they already would have been put in.

Though you then point out that improvements were made.

I'm not sure I understand the point you're trying to make.

It's easily my fav MonHun now.

I'm not evensalty about them removing prowlers anymore. All because they've made so many QoL changes to playing as a hunter that most of my complaints are gone.

Easier mode of travel
no running out of stamina to get around faster
hot/cold drinks seem to be gone
your buddies have a lot of different tactics they can use withuot feeling useless
Plenty of mobility skills in battle to help you get out of danger or get right back into the fight.
no more having to stock up on farcasters just to get back into camp,
gathering is much afster and better overall
no more having to actually track monster and waste space on paintballs
monster status now shows on the map too
map overhaul in general

I could go on for days, the game is just really good. Now, I can play HH and really get into it.

Also, HH just feelsl ike it does more damage now...

@Nerdtendowastaken Yes, actually.
There's taking your data and selling it to another company for profit and there's collecting the data of people working against you and actually considering offering them a job.

Both are shady, I think one is way worse than the other.
