Some games have definitely used weapon durability systems better than others. Dying Light , for example, allows for repairing and upgrading weapons. In Monster Hunter Wilds strategy Hunter , your weapons become less sharp as you use them, limiting what you can cut through, but the game allows for the use of whetstones in order to sharpen them again (though different weapons have different limits). The weapons in Fire Emblem break after you’ve gone through the number of uses per weapon, but most of the weapons are so easy to replace that it doesn’t become a consistent detraction from the game, it simply adds to the strategy per
Hunting down huge mechanical monsters is certainly one of the biggest draws of Horizon Zero Dawn. Players who want to experience the same feeling in other titles need only check out the Monster Hunter series, with the latest title in this series being quite notable in this reg
We are going to take a look at some of the best bestiaries in video games. The games mentioned have bestiaries that provide more than enough information for you to read. Additionally, many of these bestiaries contain lore that helps build the world around you. First, let's take a look at one of the most well-known games on our l
It's also closer in spirit to Horizon than many games on this list, having been made in roughly the same era. The upcoming sequel should do a lot to excite players who loved the high-flying web-slinging act
Over the weekend, Desconhecido 's (via DSOGaming ) Witcher x Monster Hunter World mod went live on Nexus Mods. The build in question adds The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt's Triss Merigold and Yennefer of Vengerberg to the Capcom experience, courtesy of a couple of character swaps. Notably, players who download the PC mod can switch out the Commission and Rot armor for Triss; meanwhile, Yen replaces the Brigade armor. Screenshots show that Triss' main Witcher 3 attire and DLC outfit feature in the mod, though it appears that only Yen's DLC garb will be accessi
Any player seeking out quality games similar to Horizon Zero Dawn should definitely give Grand Theft Auto a shot. Sure, it might not have any of the post-apocalyptic vibes or mechanical monsters featured in Horizon, but it's still a quality title that will be just as engrossing, if not m
That said, the one realm in which people seem to be the most accepting of weapon durability systems is in survival games. Considering that the whole point of those games is to be desperately trying to survive in an almost impossible situation, limited supplies and weapons contributes to the feel that the games are usually going for and are thus much more acceptable for m
Yennefer of Vengerberg and Triss Merigold from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt have joined Monster Hunter World on PC, thanks to a character swap mod. Of course, this does not mark the first time that the World of the Witcher has crossed paths with Capcom's hit franchise. Geralt guest starred in Monster Hunter World via a crossover event that hit consoles in February 2019, then migrated to PC that May. The collaboration between Capcom and CD Projekt Red added Geralt, Witcher -themed items, resources to craft the White Wolf's armor and weapon sets, and much m
Of the myriad Monster Hunter World mods that have made the rounds online over the last several years, this seems to count as one that players will want to check out. Naturally, the downside is that the character swaps won't allow players to fully assume the roles of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt heroines. So Triss' incredible fire magic and Yen's supreme sorceress abilities cannot be used to mow down beasties in MHW . Perhaps future mods will make such wonders possible, tho
Those who enjoy relying on Geralt's sword skills in combat will likely appreciate the hack n' slash fervor of the Viking melee style, and the open-world heralds many similarities to that of The Witc
Years after launch, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is still making headlines thanks to its memorable characters and the incredible work that CD Projekt Red put into development. It's likely that the game will be garnering even more attention now the Netflix's The Witcher series , based on the same books series as the games, is currently out and streaming on the platf
Monster Hunter World originally launched on PS4 and Xbox One platforms in January 2018 before releasing on PC several months thereafter. The action role-playing game enjoyed widespread critical acclaim in addition to meteoric success on the market, which eventually resulted in its becoming the highest-selling Capcom game in company history at over 20 million units sold. It's no wonder, then, that Monster Hunter's PC modding community remains incredibly act
More than that, the argument has been made that weapon durability systems basically discourage combat altogether. If you must constantly replace your weapons—and especially if you’re carrying a better weapon with you—you’re reluctant to use it because you don’t want to use it up. Furthermore, it also encourages players to use the worst weapons possible in every battle, in fear of using up the good ones. Instead of encouraging the usage of a variety of weapons like the system is supposed to, it often ends up encouraging players to simply avoid combat. Sometimes, players even finish the game without using any of the best weapons, because they “might need it later”—indefinitely. It almost seems like weapon durability is basically the game’s way of shooting itself in the f
