A week in the life of a hunter

So I posted a week ago about a new game I had purchased. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. I have played this game for more hours than I would like to admit but it has all been worth it. This game rewards you for the hours you put in. One week and around.....70 hours later (Me and sleep have become distant lately) I have reached G ranking. What is this you ask? G rank is basically where the game takes off any little bit of training wheels you had and throws you into the ring with monsters that will show absolutely no mercy. You take your eyes of the game for even a second and a monster will kill you in one hit. You have to learn the habits and signals the monsters do to predict their attacks. You have to literally learn the monsters habits and for a game to put that much depth into a game is amazing. When monsters get tired or weak they retreat to their nest. There are no health bars for enemies just signs of weakness. From hitting them over and over they gain scars, broken parts, tails cut off and when the enemy is close to death it starts limping. Tell me that's not innovative. It makes it seem like you are actually hunting.

Anyway after grinding for hours and hours I have finally attained an armour set and and weapon from G rank meaning I will not die....as fast. Now what's left for me is raising my rank and finding harder and harder monsters. My goal for this week is to hit the highest rank and possibly start getting high up on the leaderboards. So this ends my little bit on Monster Hunter and hopefully this has interested you to purchase this game or at least give it a chance. 

Here is an overview of the gear I started with to the gear I now have. Not that it will mean much to any of you. 
And my gear now
