The limited number of times you can start the "Monster Hunter Rise DEMO" is a problem for all hunters...
If you take on two defeat quests with all 14 types of weapons, you will have 28 attempts, and if you take on a defeat quest again with a weapon of your choice, you will have 29 attempts.
Since the basic training quests and the dragon control training quests do not consume the number of departures, it might be a good idea to stop after 29 attempts and then go back to the training quests to prepare for the March 26, 2021 (Friday) release date of the full version of "Monster Hunter Rise"!
