I'm really excited for it. I am not one of those freaks here and on Hexbear who have been playing the game since the DS era. First one for me was Rise after which I played World and those two have been the most fun I have had with any game ever (minus of course the tower defense garbage in Rise). I get burned out for DLC but love the base game.

I haven't kept up with the changes in Wilds. I did play the open beta for a bit and decided to not spoiler myself too much. But it's monster hunter and they can't really go much wrong with it. I am sad they got rid of the doggo. I was looking forward to naming mine Max but the birb is fine too.

There rightly are concerns over performance issues. On PS5 the game looks bad on performance mode but I am unfazed by that.
