The Everything game.

What isn't warframe? You cannot distill WF into 1 game style or tag.
It starts out as 1 thing and in less than 20- 40 hours becomes 5 in 80 becomes 10.
Endless gamemodes and themes and endless lore and story built over 13 years by an the wonderful people at Digital Extremes the creators of the Unreal Tournament series and cult classic The Darkness.

To give you a exhaustive list of this game would be to spoil the well crafted surpises within. Come with a open mind and a eagerness to try something TRUELY new and unique. You havent seen SCI FY like this.

On the surface the game may seem extreamly simple starting out but i promise you stick with it and you will be rewarded. Dont like the crafting timer throw you off either this game is ENTIRELY FREE 2 PLAY you will need to grind out but you can play every ounce of this game for free and with regular heavy discounts to there premium currency the quality of the game will have you wanting to fund there development budget more.

For 13 years Warframe has had one of the most consistant fan bases in all of gaming and built a wellspring of trust and admiration thru content, tranparency and community engagement like no other.

YES....JUST YES...ITS WILL BE HARD...IT WILL PUNISH YOU...IT WILL TEACH YOU THINGS....LEARN....RESEARCH....EXPERIMENT....

You will loot get fat and die.....run it back. Get better get fat loot...

97 people playing obviously P2W flop.

If you love turn based games....BUY THIS. NO QUESTIONS NO BUTS OR IFS BUY IT.

If you only kinda like turn based games......BUY THIS GAME. Expedition 33 is possably genre RE- defineing TBCombat with its visual fidelity, action dodging and parry system

IF you dont like turn based games.....PLEASE try this thing. I am not a huge fan of these sorts of things but this game really makes it worth it.

Just try it. Thats all i ask.

One of the best looking games on the market right now. If you have anything under a 3080 your 1 not going to run well or 2 not going to run the game at a high enough setting to get the most out of what the game is ment to be.

This is a top tier hardware game and i dont simply mean UE 5 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ i just mean this game has A LOT of visual depth and fidelity.

The core gameplay and experience is basicly 1 to 1 with the 2006 original game Face jank animation jank, NPC are silly.

Combat is what you remember with a few updates there is a odd amount of seeming input delay that i cant nail down but its not stopping me from playing.

I have crashed twice so far in only 3 hours 1 of thoes il take a little blame for as i lowered my settings in the middle of stuff going on and it didnt like that.

I am so happy this is out so suddenly and out of nowhere and is generally really well done so far.
It even seems like modding wont be impossable. This is the best timeline we found it if only for a moment.

Mobile game port....its super cringe.
Some of the Characters are hot thats about all i got.
Art is nice

4/10

Monster Hunter: Wilds is a fun action forward MH game attempting to blend the serious simi realistic setting of World with the whimsy of something like Rise. If you do not have modern hardware AVOID this game as it will run really poorly. Everyone else please join in on the hunt and fun with more to come in later updates. If you have a console i would suggest getting that version if you PC inst up to date.

Here is a list with some scores out of 10:

Gameplay: 8.5 / 10 The general loop of game play is pretty engaging if not too hand holding some people will find the guided nature of this games Story very obnoxious but give it the patients it wants and take it all in its not at all a bad time.

Difficulty: 5/10 (Not hard but also no push over simple if you know how to play MH this will be simple during the story)

Sound: 8/10 Sound design is very very similar to MH: World

Graphics (Quality): 7.5 / 10 Somes its great and hits high marks other times texture don't load or render bad LODS and look terrible color grading is a mixed bag. I would say the visuals swing from a 5 to 8 depending.

Performance(FPS): 4/10 Horrible performance on a other wise good performance PC playing at 1440p with High Rez pack on and ultra settings with DLSS on Quality i get 20 - 50 fps with a average of about 40 - 45 this is on a RTX 3080 12gb and R7 5800x and 32gb of DDR4 cutting the settings down to high or medium helps some but not as much as you would probably like.

Story: 6/10 (MH is not known for gripping story lines this is higher quality than world and not as corny but its no tear jerker or thje next LOTR book)

Voice Acting: 9/10 All NA voices are on point and sell there characters and rolls well. (My favorites are the Wud wud and Gemma)

12.7 hours with some decent rose smelling at time of writing and a bit of AFK and i'm at around the halfway point the the story.
have not died at all playing with the dual blades.
The Story for the game when the credit roll is about 15 - 20 hours depending on your skill and pace. This is markedly short compared to the nearly 40 hours of Worlds story. However there are plenty of content updates to be had post launch so only time will tell how the value will work out. Side content during the story is little and not required AT ALL the game is not hard enough to warrant it. The new Wound system is very fun but results in monster fight being to simple. That said this could drastically change later on as ranks and new monsters are added.

Right now the games STORY is short and underwhelming but is a improvement in terms of execution over World in my opinion by a fair bit.

I would like to give Monster Hunter: WILDS DAY 1 review a solid 6/10 Despite the poor performance the game is very fun to play but quite simple to fight thru at this time even solo. This 6.8/10 has the ability to go up to a 8/10 in time but i am worried performance will hamper many player ability to enjoy this otherwise fun game.

TRIGGER WARNING:

Note: If your someone in modern video game political space and are curious. This game does not feature anything I would consider as DEI offending or aggressive. Men are Men women are women and Cats are Cats and look accordingly and fit there unique rolls as such. The closest inclusive bit is that armor for men and woman can be mixed and matched to provide more creative armor visually. It is sad i feel the need to even write such a comment on a game but here we are. Anyone can play this game and enjoy it as we SHOULD.

Dam near fixes my FPS and Visual problems for Monster Hunter Wilds Beta OBT 2 build.

Worth it.

.03 is the best state POE 2 has been in since EA Launch. There were a few issues but they pushed updates to fix the biggest issues. You can actually build and get loot and progress. Progress is meaningful now and can be fun.

So long as you can learn to build a good kit/class then you can have 100s of hours of fun with the game.

I love it but it needs help. Clearly needed come more time in the oven but GSC has been thru alot and i am willing to give them the time they need to get it right and i believe the will do everything in there power to make it great.

The Modding Community for this game is amazing so many people are making constant progress to fix to stop gap fix many issues or personal preferences with the game.
If you want good FPS you need to use DLSS and FSR 3 Frame Gen this game has really poor performance right now and im not 100% convinced they can fix it that much.

You end i will give my thoughts thus far with NO PATCHES done so far.
Graphics: 9/10 (one of the best looking games out right now for me hands down)

Audio: 8.5/10 (world sound is some of the best iv ever heard no real music to hear out side of some simple combat tracks
but the ambiance is stellar creepy and intriguing (when its not bugging out on some stuff)

Voice Acting: Fantastic in UA and decent in English. If you want immersive play the game in UA language but i will warn that you may miss critical info unless you really read the subtitles.

Gun-play: 6/10 (AI is to broken and A-Life is broken to give any final score)

Game play (loop) : 6/10 (AI is to broken and A-Life is broken to give any final score)

Story: 7.5/10 (im not done with it but so far)

Balance: 5/10 Very unbalanced needs a lot of attention to be challenging but at least sorta fair.

Fun Factor: 9/10 the entire package is super creepy, bad ass, intriguing, confusing, complex....the world ooozes with life and strange happenings one of my favorite opens worlds ever even if the moment to moment isn't the most engaging ever one A-Life 2.0 is fully working im praying that will close the game on this game and make it the 9/10 or more it has the ability to.

I would wait to buy if you on the fence but if you like S.T.A.L.K..E.R, Fallout, Skyrim you will have a good shot at enjoying this game. If you want to take the game up a level and really give this game a try i would suggest getting Vortex and mod the game.
