Staples Center in Los Angeles on Friday. It’s new, but I will be kissing him under the mistletoe.” Though Metz did not reveal who her boyfriend of four months is (only that he works in the industry behind the scenes), she said that the relationship is in the early stages and that things are looking promising. We met] through a friend,” Metz said, adding that they met “at the beginning” of This Is Us. Metz explained why she was cautious speaking about her relationship. Here’s the thing, like, he needs to have his own life,” she said.

I don’t want him roped into mine, so I just want to protect him. My little sweet treat.” In November, Metz was candid about her This Is Us character, Kate; her desire to shed weight; and how it’s affected her life off the show. According to an interview with TVLine, she said she had to agree to lose weight in real life. Metz responded to interest surrounding her candid discussion over her character's weight loss journey and the real- life parallels, telling ET it's a topic that's still not talked about enough."I think it's still weird for people to be like, 'Oh she's the big girl, oh she's on network television.' I think that's still really new for them and I think it's an education and the more that we see people who are average or plus size, we're like, 'Oh it's not scary, it's not a weird thing.' I think they just want to talk about it because it's not talked about a lot."Earlier this year, Metz spoke to ET about why her character resonates with so many viewers. I think everyone has shame about something, whether it’s a lack of a relationship with a child or maybe their weight or a lack of communication within their marriage,” she said. Everyone can relate to that because we all have something that we’re like, ‘God, I can work on that or I wish I was better at doing this.’”.

Monster Hunter Stories for 3. DS Reviews. Gotta HATCH 'em all! As a die- hard Monster Hunter (MH) player who has spent 1.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and Monster Hunter: Generations, I was already heavily invested in the MH world and all its monsters, so I bought Monster Hunter Stories on the first day it was released without second thought. And I've never regretted it. Traditional MH veterans should find many subject matters familiar (monsters, weapons, armour). In fact, my affinity to the monsters is what made me buy this game. The difference is you're not a Hunter in Monster Hunter Stories (MHS), you're a rider!

That means that instead of slaying monsters, you breed and befriend them so they can be your allies! Together with your monster party, you go hunting other monsters. It's truly refreshing, and of course, much less tense compared to traditional MH gameplay. While MHS offers a totally different gameplay and mechanics from the usual highly addictive cycle of working with 3 online friends to strategise, prepare and kill desired monsters to obtain parts to create better weapons and armour, Monster Hunter Stories has it's own addictive nature and it comes in the form of "gotta hatch 'em all" and forming the best monster party you can command! What really surprised me was how equally addictive Monster Hunter Stories (MHS) is, in a whole different way.

Let me explain. Firstly, there's the "gotta hatch 'em all" aspect to it. You go around randomly- generated monster dens stealing their eggs and hope to hatch all sorts of monsters with unique gene pools - yes, even the same species of monster can have multiple combinations of genes (active skills, passive skills). Gotta hatch 'em all" gives a familiar ring to another similar game, Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all). If you've played Pokemon, you immediately understand why MHS can be so addictive - you just want to get that next egg which could reveal a Red Khezu, or Pink Rathian, or Shrouded Nerscylla with good genes.

Secondly, there's the customisation aspect to the game. Even with the monster genes described above, you are (several hours into the game) able to do genes transfusion so some monsters can adopt certain genes from other species! Talk about a recipe for those with Obssessive Compulsive Disorders!

Of course, you've got your usual upgrade of weapons and armour, but it's mechanics is a lot simpler in that you don't have to grind a particular monster 2. Because the monster fights are much shorter than traditional MH fare, it's not anywhere as onerous. That said, it's no easy task to simply upgrade your weapons or armour, as they often require specific amounts of specific materials. In that respect, there is some similarity to traditional Monster Hunter gameplay. Other similarities to traditional MH games include simplified versions of combining items (e.

Potions, Paintball, etc.), villages to visit which includes your house, etc. Thirdly, the combat, while simplified, isn't a cakewalk. In Pokemon, you could almost sail through every battle without really "dying" because a lot of the mechanics are predictable. MHS on the other hand - while it has the same rock- paper- scissors mechanic to winning battles - there is a certain element of unpredictability because some craftier monsters don't necessary follow a pattern, so you can't simply predict (and easily win) battles. For example, Speed trumps Power, but the monster could use Power first, then decides to switch to Tactics instead, so you can't blindly spam a single move. Combat also gives a sense of camaraderie with your monster where you build up kinship as you successfully win a few rounds of rock- paper- scissors (Power- Speed- Tactics). Once built up, you can jump on your monster and unleash a more powerful attack.

Traditional MH veterans will be familiar also with the fact that many monsters have specialty elements that work better (or worse) against monsters with other elements. I've played a couple of Pokemon games in the past including Heart. Gold/Soul. Silver, X/Y etc. Monster Hunter Stories with Pokemon games, I'd pick MHS anytime as Pokemon tends to bore me, but MHS feels much more organic and substantial - I feel more of an affinity to my monsters in MHS than my pokemons in Pokemon. Whether you're a MH veteran or you've never played MH before, I highly recommend Monster Hunter Stories, not least because it's so charming, but for a MH veteran, you'll be immediately familiar with a lot of things, yet be pleasantly surprised by the entirely new gameplay mechanics; for a non traditional MH player, this is a substantially new world to explore without much of the grind and difficulty you hear about traditional MH games.

Super, highly recommended!
