Reddit user checks notes dabs_bud_bongsshared their plightwith the Monster Hunter Wilds subreddit last week.
“Cant get past the first monster,” they pleaded.
“Read below.”
Their post insists it’s “not skill issue or anything,” and I fully believe them.
“Just literally been fighting it for over an hour and its not dying.
This first Chatacabra in the intro after selecting your weapon, rescuing the little girl’s brother.
The quest instructions are ‘slay the Chatacabra.'”
“It literally wont ‘slay’ this thing,” the post continues.
“Im assuming the first fight shouldnt be over an hour long.
I haven’t fainted once or anything.
I’ve just been fighting it the whole time.
Ive had to sharpen my weapon at least 15 times now.
Is this some kind of glitch?
How do I get past this.
I dont wanna just keep fighting it for 20 hours lol.”
“I have played Monster Hunter previously,” they explained.
“Ive played [Generations Ultimate], World and Rise.
Probably about another 10 mins passed before I finally paused it for the first time.
At this point I tried to look up how long this fight should take and couldnt find anything.
“I played another 15 mins before pausing again.
At this time I tried to look up any bugs or glitches but again couldnt find anything.
And it doesn’t sound like their version of Monster Hunter Wilds is just dreadfully busted, either.
“The only other bug I experienced was yesterday actually,” they added.
“I do not remember the quest but way farther in the game.
I couldnt jump off my riding monster.
I couldnt pull out my weapon.
I could only enter the start menu and direct where to go directionally.”
