Game's not worth buying right now.
Wait for optimization patches, and if they don't come, don't buy it.
If you use AMD, expect crashes. Nvidia, expect stuttering.

The gameplay itself is fine. Perfect guards are a nice addition, but not alone worth the price.
Seikrets were a mistake, travelling the map without one feels terrible, so now you just taxi after the monster.
Far as I can tell, all moveset additions are positive.
well, sword and shield feel a bit slippery. you can move between every attack, it's a bit strange. The jump attack is good though.
Cats aren't customizable in abilities. don't want your cat to taunt? too bad, you either get all of the moves or none.

game is very easy for the level of bombast sent your way. Haven't had a hunt last for 10 minutes yet. Not unlike Rise though, that game I beat most village quests in ~5 minutes. I'll need to see high rank.

with the performance issues knocked out, I could probably recommend it then. This is not "then", however.

Enjoy World, Rise, and it's expansions before then. Hell, play Generations ultimate if possible. Take your time with them, and once you're finished this will probably be a good game. Maybe.
