I've been playing a whole lot of Monster Hunter Rise. It runs really good, great performance and battery life (which makes sense considering it was originally a switch game). It's my first real Monster Hunter game and I'm having a great time with it.
Only issues I've encountered: switching between docked and handheld play causes a minor fps drop until I restart the game. The game also has a utterly bizarre bug where if you're playing with a controller designated as the 2nd player controller, any monster roar will drop the fps to 0 for like a minute. Super bizarre, no idea what kind of spaghetti code could cause that.
Edit: for anyone interested, Fanatical has a build your own monster hunter bundle right now that's an incredibly good deal. Can get MH Rise + it's big Sunbreak expansion for $11, previous best deal I had seen was $18 for the two. They also have MH World and a lot of other past MH games.
It does look like a nice deck game. I only ever played World, but I eventually got tired by the endless grind. How is Rise in this regard?
I haven't played world, so unfortunately I can't make a comparison. There's definitely grinding to do though, hopefully someone who has played both can comment about it.
