WTF Capcom? I can run World, Iceborn and Rise maxed out settings, no upscaling and get above 60FPS easily!
And now I can't get above 50 FPS with upscale and all graphics settings turned off or low. The game looks like a pixelated potato...

The developpers or corporates have lost the plot, I'm sorry but you should focus on making a fun playable game before it looks nice... I'm sorry but this is jsut unacceptable... How and why did you f***ed this up?

Okay, optimization rant over. The game itself...

At the time, I'm at in the game a bit above 10h, it's too easy... I hope HR will up the difficulty.

Exploration ? Useless, you made a beautifull world and you don't have to explore it... No mecanics pushing you to explore, you justs auto-travel or teleport to spots. Frankly, that's a missed opportunity. World wasn't open world and you had to explore maps to discovers ressources, there you got it all marked from the start, no need to collect traces of monsters to study them and have them revealed on the map too. Put it simply, there is no exploration... Such wasted potential

Story... Honestly, I don't care... I skipped every single cinematics, I don't play MH for the storyline. I'll let you be the judge of it.

Gameplay. Now that's where I have nothing to say, my beloved weapons are still fun to play with (GL and SA). With some strange magic of the engine, I don't have too much FPS dips when fighting the monsters. I feel the wound mecanic needs to be toned down, the monsters at this level are so easy to abuse even in solo. I have yet to fail a quest (even tempered).

Multiplayer, well still a bad experience while doing the campagn... Just like World. For the rest, I can't say... I haven't done to much multiplayer since adding players make my FPS dip even under 40FPS...

All and all... So much wasted potential to make a great explorable open world adding the poor optimization and you got a pretty decent game but not worth 70€ at all... Or a least not at release.

All MH fans will love, I love it even with all the flaws but I can't give it a recommandation, except to fans but they already bought it... Capcom needs a lesson, needs to hear the fans and fix the game SAP. This is not okay. I'm not sure I'll spent 800h on this game like I did World if the performances are not improved and difficulty upped.
