6 hours in and I'm still mainly mashing buttons and have no clue what the actual fuck I should be doing. I mean the game is kinda fun. But I get bombarded with functionalities and info and my silly mind just can't comprehend it. I guess there is a steep learning curve if you haven't played any MH game before, lol. Anyway, at least it runs fine on PS5 Amateur and it didn't crash a single time on me yet. But I don't know if I will keep playing. The game feels outright exhausting to me.

Go for the Insect glaive, it has a medium level learning curve and if you go for fast insects it's a speedy weapon. Mix between gun and easily the most mobile weapon, changes the game so much from any other weapon it feels like a different game but you can get the main idea of the weapon from a 15 minute YouTube video. It's so fun, I wouldn't play Monster Hunter if I had to play with other weapons. 

Funny that you say that, because I am actually using the Insect Glaive. The game recommended it after I answered some questions. So here I am, jumping around like a mad man and waiting for those colors in Slot 1, 2 and 3 to get filled up for my super move. At least I figured that out. Sometimes I land on top of a monster, which looks cool as hell. But I don't know when and how that happens, lol. It just happens by accident, like a lot of things when I fight monsters. =D

I am also quite overwhelmed by the options for gear and stuff. Plus meals and whatnot. I end up doing something, but I have no idea if I actually have a benefit from it.
