the opening hours of every monster hunter game is always a huge chore that requires a lot of setting-up and prepwork to get your hunting experience as smooth as possible for the next 100+ hours, but jesus christ they don't even give you a weapon in this one, you have to buy it yourself from the blacksmith after saving up enough money from doing the shitty rank 1 quests! wild shit.

otherwise seems like a normal mh game idk, controls are a little funky but thats like, fine

Suzerain
Suzerain

a text-based strategy sim centered around navigating the complex geopolitical manuverings of a country on the edge of an extremely precarious stability that is beset on all sides by its neighbors and the dominant world powers seeking to engage in ideological proxy wars.
all of which is best informed by a clear understanding of the historical events and relationships that brought said country to its current historical moment, as well as the various institutions that wield its power and how they work, all helpfully catalogued through a heavy in-game codex,

Unfortunately, i only ever boot this up when i'm half asleep at 5 in the fucking morning and can't be bothered to do the reading to actually play this game, which is just some tragic stuff on my part really
