I’m hoping to try out the open beta on steam, but also I don’t know if I’ll be able to get to it.
Please fill this thread with screenshots and commentary of your experiences, hunters!

So far on PS5 I can confirm the character creator is very good, very Dragon’s Dogma 2.
I haven’t had time to play really but I spent 30 minutes messing with basic weapon movesets; they all feel great.
It’s been a while since my crew played World together, so I think the weapons feel similar at this point, but most recently I’ve only played Tri 
Worth noting for PS5 users that the accessibility options are pretty extensive and there is a 120hz mode out of the gate!
Y’all try that Wilds playtest on PC?
I got several hours in with some friends, and while initially put off by the ugly shaders, poor performance, and terrible image quality, I like the mechanical changes! I love the big camp with other player’s characters, and the seamlessness of jumping into a hunt.
It feels like a return to the older slower games. Rise is great and I love what it did, but the change of pace is a good mixup to keep things fresh.
Hopefully they iron out the technical issues over the next few months. There are a lot.

Sounds promising, if perhaps a little light
Didn’t watch the vid yet but if that’s what you feel was Gaijin Hunter’s overall conclusion, seems good to me.
It being good but a bit light was more or less how I felt about World upon release too, and though it may have taken a while, the content updates eventually meant World ended up feeling more filled out even before Iceborne came out, and Iceborne put it over the edge to feeling like a generous game.

Aye, and Gaijin Hunter is pretty much the only person I’m interested in hearing a review from – outside of people here in this thread!
I’m keen to play, but I’m not sure if I’ll be grabbing it on day one. The prices over here are … spicy
For anyone looking at the console releases, DF have some pertinent info for you:

Boy, I’d like to play this game but I have very little confidence in performance even with the day 1 patch. The demo/beta was rough on my 5800x and 3070. Also it’s hard to justify spending $100 on a videogame.
Anyone here planning to take the plunge on PC day one?
did you try the actual benchmark tool they put up on steam?
I still haven’t decided. It’s so expensive over here, plus the performance talk concerns me.
I’m not a “any lower than 90fps is unplayable” person, and my gpu is ok enough but my cpu is sitting around 6 years old now - an i7-8700K.
…but hey, I played Rise on my switch so I’m sure it’ll be fine
That price tag though. Blarg

I did, and it was better but also benchmarks are rarely a good enough representation of actual gameplay. I couldn’t maintain a steady 60FPS with what I consider acceptable image quality. DLSS performance looks ROUGH.
I could play at a solid 30fps, or maybe 40-50 with VRR, but I’d rather just wait and play something else in that case.
gotcha yeah. Not spending a lot of dough on something you’re not totally on board with is always the right call no need to give into FOMO

Considering they recommend a midrange 10th gen Intel for minimum requirements at 60FPS 1080p, yeah that won’t fly.
Also Capcom saying 60fps with framegen is disappointing. It’s so misleading. That’s not what the tech is for.
Is the benchmark tool still available?
If so, I might give it a go when I’m home and at the pc again

looks like it. Waiting for a driver update then the benchmark (or making use of the steam refund policy) probably the way to go

I hear there’s a very hefty day one patch, plus day one drivers always help.
Normally I’m good on FOMO but have some friends that aren’t. Hopefully they can resist spending, again, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS on a videogame.
I’m still mad at myself for buying the Civilization 7: Magic Beans edition. None of this shit is worth the cash

I’m guessing that’s without framegen? I wish the benchmark results showed the DLSS/FSR setting and whether frame gen is on.
I assumed very incorrectly that you have an older GPU given the CPU lol.
