I will be away from home for the entire beta of MH wilds...

Either way, if you want to see the train wrack, you can try it now. But I would still recomend Rise instead.
The game is even uglier on my PC, then on youtube. Everything is blury except for the obvious dithering, that provides sharp dots across the screen.
Why do devs make this shit?
Look at the moutains in the background. Do they look sharp? Do they at least look 2010 sharp?
No... They look like something from the age of Drakan. That game was from 1999.
Max details...
My GPU is on fire.... But I still get fucking dithering? I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines. I hate modern game engines.
@LukeAlmighty it's crazy that games from 20 years ago have a more stable picture than current gen games do. There's no stuttering, no weird shimmering and ghosting, reflections aren't noticeably incorrect and shifting all the time, transparency is actual transparent instead of dithered... I could go on. Even 10 years ago none of this was really an issue. Sure, models and textures aren't of objectively higher quality, but there's nothing in the game that is just constantly ripping you out of the immersion. I actually end up needing to turn screen space reflection off in a lot of games because of how weird it can look. I tend to not use raytracing because of how things can get smeared with it on (which is only just now starting to be kind of fixed).
And of course, not only is the image significantly harder to look at, the games run like shit too and there isn't nearly as much artistry as there used to be. Those old games were running on systems that were using under 1gb of slow RAM.

While I am in a ranting mood.
Cinematic intros are just retarded. I started the game and created the character, The character editor looked fine. But then, I got this linear 20min long section, where I noticed the graphical problems. And I COULDN'T JUST PAUSE THE GAME, AND CHANGE THE SETTINGS!!!!
So, by the time, I got to the options menu, half of the intro was gone, and since the game didn't pause, 95% of the intro was gone, before I got the settings better.
And now, there is no reset button, except deleting my well made Annie Leonhart, and restarting my progress. Who thinks, that this is the best way to start the game? Why cannot you give me a single 5 min gameplay first, so I can figure this out, before you blast me with the cinematic intro?
@beardalaxy
I seriously don't know, how some weird textures could have triggered my spider sences about this game, but I remember saying, that it just didn't feel right graphically.
Well, Twitter is slowly starting to collect clips now.
@beardalaxy
To end it here, I seriously do see, that they did a TON of work on the game, and I believe it might be good one day... But that will require a fan re-shade and a ton of stability patches.
@LukeAlmighty I like it when games come with benchmarks or, at the very least, images of what each graphic setting does alongside the toll they will take on your system. Also the same reason demos are nice, since you can dial in stuff before playing the proper game.
This is another reason why people like consoles though, too. You don't have to fiddle around with any of that, the game just is the way it is.
