  • There is a big difference between a software engineer and a software developer/programmer. In the same way there is a difference between a civil engineer and a builder.

    A software engineer is the one who scopes the project. They define the feasibility, the limitation and exeptions, the tools to use, as well as costing and time planning and management.

    The programmers are the ones who work to this scope and utilise the specified tools and technologies to create the product.

    I have a degree in software engineering and all of this was covered. From writing scoping documentation, to time and costing with Gantt charts. This is the actual difference.



  • You may be right, I only played rise/unbreakable for about 150 odd hours, and didn’t dive too deeply into the switch skills outside of charge blade.

    I believe from memory I swapped it to the one that came with sunbreak because it was more fun to me.

    Saying all that I do like that the echo aoes are being brought into wilds, and at the end of the day, everyone should be playing the weapon(s) they find fun, in the ways they find fun.





  • I see this as one of those mechanics that’s aimed at helping new people get into the series.

    Imo it will most likely be more dps, or at least more versatile, to not have your shots locked onto a single body part.

    I’m not sure how much the weak point gameplay will even come in as in rise I didn’t even really use my silkhind attacks that much. I’m aware they were overpowered but that wasn’t really how I wanted to play, so I just didn’t use them.

    At the end of the day the thing I love most about monster hunter is that while there is a meta, there isn’t a huge part of the community that clings to it. As long as you are pulling your weight for the most part it doesn’t matter what you use or what you wear.
