You do need to attack monsters multiple time to get the items you need especially in former games like generations where range and close combat tiers are separate. Buddies also have their own gear. Low rank is different from high rank as well.
Not just for weapons and gear but for items like potions, and traps. It’s like an investment into the game to reach the pinnacle of your style and than bring it to the online against g ranks
For a newcomer which would you recommend i pick up first?
Well some people still play generations online but you’ll have a much easier time investing into rise. For example in generations you have to build gear separately for swords than you would a bow
So investment rise I think you get more from rise but if you can get generations on sale there are a few things it has unique to like like playing as a cat, and having access to g rank which hasn’t been added yet to rise
I'm glad I asked before buying. Thank you for your answers. Super informative
Rise has a demo too right?
You’re welcome one more thing I should add is that in rise you don’t have to worry about hot and cold drinks since the weather doesn’t affect your health or stamina. It’s got a few more convenient things both games should have demos
And rise is the most recent one that came out I think?
Yes
My friend's coworkers play this game every single night and I've been hearing a lot of people talk about how addictive the gameplay is
Also each generation of the game has unique creatures so rise will have ones you don’t find in generations and generations will have ones that didn’t make it into the new generation of the game. Generations is sort of like the sum of the older generations bought together and rise is like the coming a new generation
Ohhhhh. That makes a lot more sense. I think I'll start with rise. I'm excited. Do you guys meet up and play together on here
You could add people by friend code from here and be able to see when they are on or post
If you get rise you can go straight to the online because that’s the main mode and it will give you access to high rank
😮
Basically online you start with low rank and by 4-7 he you’ll fight stronger versions of the same creatures that make high quality gear and in the future they should be adding g rank
G rank is unique because the gear is not necessarily meant to be worn as a whole set but to accommodate a particular skill with one piece from the set into a set
I see. So as I progress I unlock more stuffs that I can use as I move on up
