As more clearly dedicated hunters trickle into our slice of the fediverse, let’s take the opportunity this smaller community gives us to share how Monster Hunter found us.

    Gathering and prepping is a vibe, glad you could connect with it even if hunting wasn’t for you yet. Love the dedication of trying the community hosted servers. Haven’t done it myself yet. I really should try frontier. I remember hoping so hard it would come to the states and swearing I’d buy an Xbox just for it. I bought a wiiu and 3ds just for MH so I was ready.

      Honestly a big part of it was a result of not having instant access to the internet to check every little thing as it came up. I remember being super confused trying to find piscine livers for one of the 2* quests, and not always knowing how to find or combine for certain crafting materials so a lot of weapon upgrades were inaccessible. I’d just do gathering runs hoarding everything I could find and hope for the best lol.

      The private servers are amazing. It’s great finally being able to experience Frontier, and the private server for Tri only opened a few days ago so there are plenty of players on fresh accounts. Not sure if I can link the discord servers for them here, but they should be easy to find through google and the setup guides are all in there. MH1 and Tri both work on original hardware too.

        Assimilated by force. Damn piscines. Impressed you stuck with it, sounds like the exact type of thing that turns away new players. I have no issue with links to anything MH related here. Put anything you got in a new post and I’ll find a place for it in the resource section.
