    Well done on this one. My first 0 and the reason is rather simple... the damn game does not work as of me writing this. Made my pc crash to the point that windows had to repair itself.
    3 crashes in a short amount of time. Third time the charm to even get into the Iceborn area and be able to move around. Crashed during fights, crashed walking around, crashed when npc spoke.

    When this is fixed I am sure that this dlc will be 10/10, but right now it is a 0 because I can´t even play it without it attempting to murder my pc.
    The current state of this game is unacceptable, releasing a game that deletes save files, cooks cpu, has memory leek, crashes gpu, and the list goes on. Ya, anyways this is not acceptable and needs to be fixed asap.    … Expand

    Sometimes I wonder if the developers even try the game they're making. 100% CPU-usage, controller delay and movement that get stuck and your character will spin in a circle for 2 seconds.

    The delay is even more obvious when trying to quit the game. - Press start for the menu, wait 2 seconds for it to pop up. - Click left to reach the system sub-menu, wait 2 seconds. - Press up to    Sometimes I wonder if the developers even try the game they're making. 100% CPU-usage, controller delay and movement that get stuck and your character will spin in a circle for 2 seconds.

    - Press X to quit, wait 2 seconds.
    - Are you sure you want to quit? YES, wait 2 seconds.

    So I decided to play without the DLC for now. Guess what. This garbage effect the base game aswell. Well done Capcom, I won't ever buy a game on release from this joke of a company. The base game had the EXACT problems on release, did they learn nothing?

    It's such a shame on an otherwise good game.    … Expand

    I had fun playing original Monster Hunter World, this expansion looks like a step back. Gear is not fun to grind as in original game. Monsters have 3 times more health and fights become quickly repetitive and boring. SOS flares (aka multiplayer support) is not working well, game rarely finds someone to join you.

    I did not have the performance problems other people seem to be having. The game runs beautifully for me. The problem is the gameplay is super grindy. The boss fights all take 15 forevers, and then they expect you to grind them for gear upgrades. Iceborne had more of that same problem.

    The story, combat, and gameplay are boring/unenjoyable. Too many items to sift through. Upgrade & shop system is boring, too extensive, and introduced too early. Way too many uninteresting stat/item stuff you have to sift and read through. Total waste of time. NPC's don't even talk much of the time, you have to read the text. Super nerdy, complex, and boring game overall.

    This game is the best RPG the worst RPG ever exist. It's an empty, boring game. Just watch some gameplays to see.

    This game is one of the most repetitive fetchquests that ever reached the console. The "Ice theme" means it lags alot because the graphics are oversaturated and underperforming art that attempts to entrance, but instead just makes the game unnecessarily difficult because everything looks the same and is bland and you can't even follow the story because they're talking all slow and it cameThis game is one of the most repetitive fetchquests that ever reached the console.

    No plot and no characters with traits or progression. Only monster grinding with gear progression system. Pretty bland. Came also with tons of DRM software.

    Juego oficial de Uber Eat y Globo.

    Mucho mucho bombo, para encontrarte un juego de reparto de entregas de paquetes.

    Un simulador de caminatas con uno de los protagonistas de the walking dead.
    Los mostruos si tu no quieres, NO TE VEN NI ATACAN.

    Que pena cuando su creador se saco la.po... Con el Pt.

    Not a bad expansion by any means. It’s just that fundamentally its current balancing of monster hitzones, impediment of clutch claw mechanics, and process of endgame grinding/gearing elongate an already long process into a longer one than necessary.

    I had taken a long break from Monster Hunter altogether and when I booted up Iceborne for this review, I fell back in love with the game. This is how you do an expansion. For me, Iceborne will go down in gaming history as one of those great expansions like The Shivering Isles, Undead Nightmare, and Blood and Wine. If you are remotely a Monster Hunter fan, this is a must have. If you have been interested in Monster Hunter but have yet to try it, do yourself a favor and pick up Monster Hunter World and this expansion. It’s the most accessible Monster Hunter to date and a fantastic entry into the series.

    Iceborne simply cements Monster Hunter World‘s position at the top of the Hunting genre, providing one of the best and most fully-featured expansions in recent memory for a title that would already gleefully suck up hundreds of hours even in its original iteration. Anyone who’s a fan of the series should be all-in on this expansion already, and for anyone yet to check it out… well, now may very well be the best time.
