  • Hello, I’ve had both of these boxes and they do mean one entire box (I’m surprised there are so many comments and no one is answering your question).

    My recommendation is to halve the amount of liquid and meat, while keeping the vegetable amounts the same, and use half a box of curry roux (note: I always use a whole carrot, I’ve never use half). One box includes two packets with 4 vaccuum sealed cubes in each, so half a box is much easier to make than a quarter.

    The flavor is the same, and it’s great. I’ve tried it and can confirm that if you use any less it’ll be a bit too watery. Likewise, if you use less than half then that means any leftovers will no longer be sealed (unless you use scissors while peeling off the plastic to preserve the seal on half a packet)

    Here’s a source where you can double check the recipe.

    Also, trust me when I say it isn’t too much. It produces a crazy amount of curry. Half a box is enough for one dinner, plus two servings of leftovers, for a single guy like myself. A full box is basically designed to feed a family.

    I pre-order games I know I’d buy on launch. Some titles I just know I’ll play, regardless of reviews - E.g. Sequels to games I love like the Witcher 3 or any of the Dying Light games.

    I’ll also do Early Access if I want to play the game early and am okay with jank, E.g. Hades 2, Windblown.



  • Not to be pedantic, but your critique of the existence of an announcement trailer feels like walking into a pizza shop, ordering a pizza, then getting mad because you wanted a burger.

    If you don’t like announcement teasers then don’t watch them and just wait for the reveal trailer to release?

    It usually goes announcement -> teaser -> reveal -> the rest







  • And they were posting the same articles while Rise was out.

    Like, just pick one of the following titles for a pre-DLC monster hunter game and there’ll be low effort reporting written about it:

    • Monster Hunter game too easy!
    • Monster Hunter game too short!
    • Monster Hunter game need more monster!
    • Food videos were better in the last game!
    • Last game had better mechanics, where is xxx

    I love Wilds, think it’s the best MH game I’ve played since GU. Can’t wait for its expansion to drop. I’m ready for master rank.





  • As a guy with over 2.5k hours in Hunt, I think it really comes down to people just enjoying different things. I can no longer play standard match based shooters, anymore, as I find the lack of consequence leads me to not caring about the outcome of games.

    Incidentally I’ve also returned to playing Eve, because losing a level 50 hunter you spent a few hours leveling up? That’s nothing compared to losing a ship you spent half a year working towards.

    Basically I’m addicted to lossy progression in games. Not claiming it’s an end-all-be-all mechanic, but damn if it hasn’t made me love games again.
