Sad_Face 01/30/18 11:08:01 AM #1:	How do I justify paying the online paywall? I could wait until it comes out on PC, but all my friends are playing the game on the PS4 now and there's no cross network play. And once I had a taste of the demo, my hunger for more monhun cannot be sated, until I carve out Nergigante's carcass and put his head on a mantle for making me recess back to the SA to beat him. So please tell me 360 refugees and PS4bros, how do you do it? What do I need to do to convince myself it's worth paying for online? --- imgtc.com/i/4HgTl0ebzq.jpg imgtc.com/i/60CWP2Gtlg.gif <cite>Sad_Face posted [p:895103630] in Guys, I wa...
