yes.

Played the demo on the Switch and I'm glad I got PC! 60 fps smooth, no stutters, no freezes, nothing.
Tested both on my main PC (Ryzen 7 2700x, GTX1660Super, 16GB 3000) any my laptop (i5 7300HQ, GTX1050, 8GB Ram) and the game runs perfect.
I recommend turning on vsync if you have any stutters but so far, no bugs, no crashes, no problems at all.
Gameplay is really fun, story is amazing and you dont need to play the 1st one to understand 2 at all!
Will update review while I progress.

Great game, great OST, great artstyle. The prove that you don't need countless hours of content to get a good game.

I got this game for free on one of the @FormulaOneGame twitter giveaways.

Been playing the F1 games since 2009 on a PSP (skipped 2013 and 2014) and I can say without a doubt this is the best one so far.
Never expected to see such a big improvement from 2019 considering 2019 was a big step up from 2018, and this one from 2017.
My Team is a fun game mode that allows you to controll everything inside your team, from R&D, sponsors, Livery design, your second drivers etc... Currently in season 4 after 2 WDCs and 2WCCs.
The cars feel good to drive on controller, graphics and sound are amazing and realistic.
The podium pass is extremely fair and easy to complete even if you dont do the challenges regularly, just by playing My Team you can easily complete it. (+ VIP pass gives you enough coins to purchase the next one).

My Team could be improved with a bit better livery design to increase "immersion" such as Engine Supplier logos on your car and Driver Helmet/Suit, and maybe with more frequent driver transfers (current 4/10 teams on season 4 are the same as 2020 with most teams changed because I signed their drivers + Kimi and Ricciardo retiring).

Overall I love this game and I can see myself playing it for a long time! It's a huge step up from 2019 and has good replay value with both My Team and regular Career mode!!

As someone that loves building PCs IRL, having the ability to do it on a game without the chance of destroying stuff (mostly my wallet) this game is perfect! Career mode is very fun and somewhat realistic and the free build option alows us to build over the top ridiculous PCs!

10/10 Would BSOD again from overclocking :)

DONT GET DISTRACTED BY THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS, IT COMES FROM PEOPLE THAT CAN'T BEAT THE HARD ENDGAME BOSSES THAT ARENT EVEN THAT HARD JUST REQUIRE SOME PATIENCE AND TIME LEARNING IT! I
After the amazing experience that was Monster Hunter World, Iceborne delivered yet another amazing experience.
The difficulty level increased and thats what we needed. We got a lot more monsters, weapons and armor to choose from.
If you want to spend thousands of hours speedrunning, casual hunting with friend, or just go through the story, this expansion is definitely worth the price.
Capcom fixed most (not all) performance issues on PC, so if you have a lower end PC check the requierements first ( a good CPU is def needed to have a playable experience).

After around 2100 hours of both base world (around 1400) and Iceborne (around 600-700) I can certainly say this is now one of my favorite games of all time.

We getting updates roughly every month that add a couple dozen of hours of playtime!

Come joins the hunts.

Edit: Alatreon and Fatalis were great additions to this game! Don't let stupid negative comments influence ur decision to buy this expansion! It's 10000000% worth it. 2600 hours in and it's my favorite game.

After 2600hours of playing this and MHRise on the horizon I decided to update my review one final time.

Monster Hunter World is, to me, the best Monster Hunter game so far. It has its issues but those are completly ignorable with the rest of the good things this game has to offer.

MHW core gameplay is one of the best of any game I've played so far. Theres 14 very different weapons that you can use and each weapon can be played differently so you will never run out of different things to do and experience.

The Loot system is MILES AHEAD of any other game's loot. You simply don't get pointless loot that you will never use later on. Theres always something to do with the materials you get. And the way to obtain said loot is very simple and intuitive. You need a monster part, you go into a quest, you hunt the monster and you get the loot. No bullsh*t random drops that have no use later on like some other games.

MHW has a total of 36 large monsters to hunt (71 if you buy the Iceborne expansion which is basically a totally new game with a new difficulty and higher tier loot) so you will always have something to hunt and weapons or armor to work on.

Since the game wont receive any more "large updates" every event quest is available to be played right now, and with a comunity that is always wiling to help new players this is the best time to get into the game!

If you decide to start it, you can even choose to use the Defender gear to blast through the base game and get into the Iceborne expansion to start hunting and grinding for you late game gear. You can also not use the Defender gear and take your time with the base game story, which is what I recommend!

This game introduced me to the franchise (I've played 3U, 4U and GU after) and I seriously love it, and with MHRise coming in March 2021 for the Nintendo Switch, the future of MH is bright.

100% Recommend this game to everyone that loves a game with almost infinite content, a challenging late game and an amazing loot system!

If you love the Portal series this is definitely a must play! Great content, from the storyline to the soundtrack and the challenging puzzles, realy made it look like a real Portal 3 (or better, a Portal 1.5)! Nice to play a challenging game once in a while, one that makes you use your head =P

What an improvement from Codemasters this year! Everything about this game is just awesome!
Amazing improved graphics, much better optimization (used to have some lag issues with F1 2017 in mid to high settings, now 2018 runs smooth w/ almost everything very high).
And to top it out, FINNALY, controller users can be as competitive as wheel users. (eg. used to have huge problems around Monaco in F1 2015-2017, now I can do it much better without bumping into every single corner.)
Every cars feels different to drive, we clearly need to adapt our drive to every single car which is amazing.
New carreer mode looks good so far (currenly doing a McLaren carreer), definitely improved from last year's game, and we can really feel the adrenaline of playing as real F1 driver!
And to finish it all, I can finnaly drive the BGP-001 without having to play that dreadfull F1 2009 =P

Grazie Ragazzi grande gioco! hehe

Excelent graphics, awesome gameplay, very good comunity. For a Free to Play Game, it's very well designed and the developers are just amazing.
It requires some grind. You will definitely have to spend some time in this game but the reward in the end is totaly worth it! You will get a major update every 2 months or so that adds over 200 hours of content, and we'll get some smaller ones every couple of weeks.
You'll hardly run out of things to do in this game, and if you play with friends you will have even more stuff to do, from helping each other farm stuff, to just go yolo on an endurance run, just for fun!
Fortuna: Amazing update so far! Feels much better than Plains of Eidolon, the map doesn't feel empty, the new mining, fishing and hunting systems are awesome and we'll not get bored of it soon!
Best ongoing game of the year FOR SURE!
100% recommending this game to everyone that loves an action, RPG or TPS game.
