Smaug (The Hobbit) depicted in different artstyles

  1. Conversation with Smaug (JRR Tolkien)

  2. Smaug the Golden (John Howe)

  3. Rankin/Bass The Hobbit (1997)

  4. Smaug the Magnificent (Michael Hague)

  5. Peter Jackson trilogy (2012-2014)

I just love how each version of Smaug brings something unique to the table in terms of how he's portrayed. Obviously Tolkien's original work is iconic but I love how regal he looks in the Howe and Hague drawings, especially compared to the more menacing depiction in the Jackson movies. Then there's the Rankin/Bass version which is probably the most unique by giving him mammalian features like fur and a cat-like head.

What is the most iconic Final Fantasy mascot?

I feel like it's a tie between Chocobos and Moogles, with Cactuar and Bomb not far behind.

Need some tips on playing Longsword

This is my first MH game so I should note that I probably don't know what I'm doing. Anyway I'm trying to learn the Longsword and it's been kinda hit or miss so far. I understand it in concept but actually putting it into practice is taking some getting used to.

I'm especially struggling with the timing on the counterattacks and finding the most effective way to fill up the Spirit Gauge because it feels like all the combos are just too slow aside from using the thrust attacks and trying to get a Foresight Slash. I've attached a gameplay clip (this is easily the best I've pulled off so far) so any advice is appreciated.

Which of the three major dragon bosses did you struggle with the most?

I think they're all tough in different ways but I would say Sinh actually kicked my ass the most, the weapon degradation that he has can also be a pain if you don't have a backup.

Sinh the Slumbering Dragon is awesome

Everyone talks about how great Kalameet and Midir are (and rightfully so) but I feel like Sinh is right up there with them in seems of dragon bosses. Great design, fascinating lore, amazing OST and a pretty fun (and difficult) boss fight.

Darkeater Midir from Dark Souls III

One of the most badass dragon designs ever, I love how absolutely massive he is, especially his wings. The way the ground shakes with every one of his movements makes him truly feel like a force of nature, and to top it off he has a Godzilla like laser breath that he hits you with

Should I play on Tactical or Expert if I'm a strategy RPG noob?

I've heard the game is pretty easy but I'm not overly familiar with strategy RPGs aside from Final Fantasy Tactics, so I was wondering if I should play on the default Tactical mode or bump it up to Expert. Also are there any tips I should know before playing?

Stuck on that one boss from chapter 3.

Most of the game has been pretty smooth sailing up to this point but Jesus Christ this guy is driving me nuts, he one shots my team with Cyclops before I can even do anything. Any tips on how to beat him? This is the party setup I've been running for most of the game.
