Piggybacking off of another reply; you'll hear a lot of "combat like dark souls", but that's not entirely accurate. The Souls type combat is fairly simple in nature, where you have maybe three or so moves in your arsenal (this x however many weapons you carry). The move list in MH games is more complex, where each of the 14 weapon types have fairly different play styles and ~10 or so moves that have different uses. The fun of this combat system is more about the mastery the weapon classes you choose to use, and learning the tells and patterns of each monster as you fight them head on.
To compare some basic points from the two in list form:

The fun of the Souls games is in learning the difficult levels,
bashing your head against a difficult boss until you barely eek out a victory,
and gradually leveling your character and advancing your build.

For MH:

The levels themselves don't pose a threat: they're essentially a small sandbox where you explore, gather items, and use as an arena to fight the monsters
you bash your head against the next hard monster until you eek out a victory... for the first time. And then you fight it a couple more times if you want to make new equipment from it. A big part of the joy is the process of getting so good at fighting it that you feel powerful "because you actually got good"
You don't actually "level up". All your stats are determined by your equipment, which makes the equipment farming more worth it, and simultaneously makes the player skill aspect more important.

Essentially, they're completely different games. You can try the demo first if you're curious, but even that isn't a very good representation of the game, since they just throw you into the deep end without letting you experience the process of building up your player skill and equipment.

yes, this is a repost of my own post from 2 hours ago... but the first post was a false alarm when it was Walmart+ access only. Now it is for everyone. And I had no way to tell the 600+ views my false alarm post was no longer crying wolf without making a new post. Sorry mods... but the people must know!

No way... that's so lame. I'm sorry everyone. I thought I had a real Frontpager here... and it was so poorly advertised so I thought it was gonna stay in stock.

I wouldn't say it was poorly advertised. It was shown on page 2 of their Black Friday ad among the grouping of $25 games. Plus I would imagine word of mouth spread all over for this deal honestly.

What wasn't well advertised was that Target actually had it on sale a couple of days ago for $30 and then the Buy 2 Get 1 free promo on video games they were running at the time actually stacked with it, effectively making it $20. If it wasn't for that score I probably would have been in on this Walmart deal.

That deal is sweet... darn. I should've scored that.

However, the game didn't show up in their list of games going on sale when browsing through their site two hours ago. If it was on the physical ad, then I didn't see that. It also didn't show up on the other Slickdeals Post that talked about Walmart Video Games.

how long can they hold the item for pickup? When I bought it i said It'll be ready for pickup on Friday, but I would rather pick it up at a later time to avoid the BF crowd.

Do you like grinding and combat system like dark soul? If so this game might be up in your alley.
