User blog comment:Artemis Paradox/Monster Hunter, A game of joy and pain... mostly pain.../@comment-1758220-20101213232829

Pain: WAY back when I had first gotten MHF2, I was fighting Shen Gaoren with a buddy of mine. We had 30 seconds left and I had used a lot of valuable items. Now this was before I knew about being able to repel a giant monster, so, not wanting to waste those items, I abandoned the quest, only for the Shen Gaoren to be repelled and my buddy HR'd up and got the rewards.

Pleasure: I had killed a Giadrome and completed the quest. I had killed it by slashing it as it was lunging at me mid-air. My picture at the end was me facing away from the camera winding up for my slash and it pouncing at me. It looked like it could be the cover of an MH game, it was ridiculous.
