    In terms of design, the game is top notch. On the other hand, as it is, it is unplayable on almost all gaming computers. For this reason, and for the sake of decency, I give it a very low rating. They have to stop releasing unfinished games.

    Technically, the game is broken for a lot of player with high end PC

    - low FPS
    - drop FPS to < 10
    - stuttering
    - audio issue

    Game is even unplayable.

    On top of that it requires a Bloatware app from EA.

    This game as of March 3rd still runs like trash. On my computer, getting over 100 FPS the game has screen tearing, constant stuttering, graphic and lighting pop-in issues.

    The pacing of the first 2 acts of the game are great, but once you hit act 3 it seems there some artificial difficulty spike kicks in, i can have end game weapon and armor and still get thrown around like a rubber chicken.

    Half the battle for this game was the performance issues. Wanna play online ? Forget about it, frames always tank to a low 20 even with a 3080.

    This game is just like every other Omega force game, trash dressed up with a pretty bow to make it look nice and appealing but is till trash underneath. All this game has done for me is appreciate MONSTER HUNTER as a franchise more and how they dont do artificial bull crap difficulty spikes.

    The story was so uninteresting that i barely remember what the hell was going on, ive fought most of the monsters but can only name 4 because they are so forgettable. The whole design concept of the game was, lets take a chicken, make it bigger and angrier.

    Save your money, buy something else from Koei cause Omega force and the Tokiden Devs have once again shown they dont know how to make a game to save their lives.    … Expand

    Another messy PC port. It could be good game but it's unplayable. Same as Forspoken. I hope someday developers of AAA games wake up and start optimizing their games, but probably it won't happen, cause of DLSS/FSR and Frame Generation. Why they should optimize game to run properly in standard rasterization when if you turn on Upscaling and Frame Generation on NVIDIA you will get enoughAnother messy PC port.

Why they should optimize game to run properly in standard rasterization when if you turn on Upscaling and Frame Generation on NVIDIA you will get enough performance. This is annoying, but we can't do anything with this. Only way is stop playing games, but nobody will do that. In future it can be possible that only people who will be able to run games on PC in playable FPS will be only new GPU generation owners. If this situation won't change in year or two, only rational way will be just buy PS5 and play games on console. But I still hope that it will change... Maybe it's only naivety.… Expand

    It's not a MHW clone. It's an abomination that should of never existed in the first place. I think I'll just go and play some more MHW. lmao. EPIC FAIL.

    (5/10 dont believe from bots)
    -only worth 30 dollar.
    ==========

    -30 - 45 hour long.

    -bad optimization, slow running, very repetitive monster hunter fights same 10 monsters over and over.

    -chapter 3 game will be grindy.

    -only good Karakuri mechanic.

    -buy monster hunter world or rise (easier than world) instead.

    It is a shame that more time and effort weren’t put into the monster variety and ensuring better performance at launch. With the ability to create traps and other constructs on the field of battle, Wild Hearts has created a new hunting experience that could certainly stand toe to toe with a more well-established series. Future patches and DLC could certainly iron some of these problems out, but as it stands upon release, Wild Hearts is difficult to recommend in its launch state to all but the most hard-core of hunters. With that said, the foundation laid out by this title is quite solid, and could certainly lead to greater things in the future.

    Wild Hearts is not flawless and you can see it was made on a budget, but it's a great starting point for a franchise. Most gameplay mechanics are good enough and some are even exceptional.

    There's potential in Wild Hearts. The building aspects alone add some depth to the exploration and combat aspects of the hunt, while the weapons feel right in a fight. There are many compelling reasons to give this a go: a drip feed of abilities, near-instant multiplayer with cross-play, and permanently affecting a player's instance. The sometimes-finicky building system can be an annoyance, while the lack of kemono variety is a knock, even if more beasts are promised later as free updates. The PC performance is what really drags down the game, and the lack of fixes combined with the game's high price tag are enough to hold off for now. On consoles, Wild Hearts is a fine counterpart to Capcom's offering, and it's worth checking out. PC players will want to wait and see if the game can make efficient use of the platform and hardware variety before jumping in.
