I played both betas/stress tests and the game just looks and feels like complete shit. Did it change at all since then?

I played on both PC and PS5. In my opinion the game looked really muddy and gross. Like MH rise looked better on switch. I know it’s monster hunter, the gameplay was fun(ish), kind of easy. Very hand holdy though. I do not want to drop $60/70 on this game if it’s exactly like it was in the beta’s.

    Looked through steam reviews a bit, looks like there are a lot of negative reviews related to performance. It’s currently sitting at Mixed reviews.

      Yeah I plan on buying PS5 probably if I do because I expect it to be more optimized for consoles at first. Hmm maybe I’ll sit on this one for a while, maybe wait for a sale or something.

      This game is making me spend 2500 on a new rig and I’m conflicted about it. My 1080 has served me well o7

        I got the 3060, and returned it for the 3070. Upgraded from a 1070, a 10 year old card. But the 3060 performance wasn’t there, and for $100 more I stayed in the xx70 lane. Needed the 3070 for 1440p monitors, the 3060 was good at 1080p but choked on 1440p. Was worth the upgrade for me, was my Christmas present to myself after 10 years of my old equipment.

    Depends on your hardware. I ran the benchmark tool for a laugh. I don’t think I quite meet minimum spec, but not far off I think. If you’re down that end, I’d avoid it.

    Lots of upscaling and frame generation options, which honestly make it look shite.

      i am WELL abover recommended soec by a long shot. They should maybe reconsider those specs since not everyone wants to use fram gen and lower resolutiona in 2025.

    It’s a new game. Unfortunately I think we are now in an era where we can expect new games to run like shit on release, and be improved over the first year.

          Yeah I tried the beta of wilds on steamdeck and I got 1 frame of game and nothing more haha, after rise being playable on switch and how amazed I was by world on pc it feels like a big miss this time. Hopefully it gets better quickly.

          How about the game though? How does it feel compared to the last 2? Interesting mechanics?

    I played the beta on PS5 Pro and exactly had the same impression. It didn’t look good. Everything muddy and blurred, even in quality mode. In performance mode its even worse.

    Personally, I didn’t have the impression that anything had changed much in the final release. The miserable graphics and performance definitely spoiled my enjoyment of the game after only 2-3 hours into the game.

    From what I’ve heard this game is very CPU demanding title. To get a decent performance you have to be on platform with DDR5 and lots of CPU cores. Also game very much recommends RTX 4000 series or better with frame gen turned on. If you are trying to run the game on RTX 3000 series card, you should turn on FSR frame gen. I suppose one can argue that game is not very well optimized and therefore it needs all that much hardware to run well and you’re not entirely wrong there. I think devs were too ambitious with all the graphical bells and whistles and found themselves in this situation.

    Personally I don’t want to see a trend where games are only playable with frame gen turned on. We already have a situation where many games are blurry and have artifacts all over the place. I don’t want annoying lag added on top of what’s already a mess.

      i like to think my r7 5800x3D is till a good CPU, if i can run star citizen at 60-80fps at all times, monster hunter wilds should also be able to run the same way lol.

      Also game very much recommends RTX 4000 series or better with frame gen turned on.

      Capcom straight up recommends frame gen to get 60 FPS, which is not what the current frame gen tech was made for, it’s ridiculous how bad this game runs
