Terrible PC performance and optimization yet again? Easy pass.

Eyup, I've waited 6 years to get World and now I am comfortably playing it at max settings with a light sprinkling of mods. I'll do the same with this one.

Another $70 modern release with awful performance.

PC performance is not good. Does that disappoint me? Yes. Did I still buy it and am I enjoying it? Also yes.

[–] Telorand@reddthat.com 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Does it still come with Capcom's anti-mod rootkit?

That's the only thing that's stopped me from getting too excited about this one. I haven't reinstalled World just because of how they forced players into it.

Though with Dauntless getting shuttered at the end of March, maybe I'll have to dust off the ol' gunlance.

Thank you for signaling to capcom that idiots who are happy to gobble up shit are plentiful and they don't need to spend any effort on making their games playable.

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Man, life is short. I just want to enjoy whacking monsters. Don't like it, don't buy it mate.

I find it amusing that you virtue signal in other threads but when someone complains that capcom is precluding a significant portion of MH fanbase for lacking a modicum of technical dedication you retort with some carpe diem bullshit. If I didn't know better I'd wager you're from the US, that "fuck you, I got mine" attitude is quite prevalent overseas.

I'm so glad you came to the rescue of all those poor dedicated MH fans by taking the time to pick on one fan who bought a game. Mission accomplished, Capcom has been told and will now change their ways.

[–] Viri4thus@feddit.org -4 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Do you apply the same logic to everything?

Let's do a reductio ad absurdum:

I'm so glad you came to the rescue of all those poor Jewish people by taking the time to pick on one nazi who said something stupid. Mission accomplished, NSDP has been told and will now change their ways.

Your logic, as expected, is flawless.

So true, video games really are just like the holocaust

[–] Aphelion@lemm.ee 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

That is the definition of false equilavance.

[–] Viri4thus@feddit.org -2 points 4 hours ago

I see you just skipped the reductio ad absurdum part.

Merica, fuck yeah!

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 hours ago

Glad to have amused you.

I didn't pre-order for this very reason. I have no trust in AAA games on launch anymore after seeing my friends grilling steak on their GPU while still only getting 45fps.
