I never even understood the handler hate because of MH language.

“Irreducible Complexity” is a (the?) cornerstone of the pseudo scientific creationist rebuttal of evolution. Or at least it was when I was young and impressionable enough to believe it.

But I can’t let the world forget how sads I am.

Unfortunately for you if you're not getting good results, I do think it is inaccurate and showing better than what we'll actually get.
Add Denuvo (debate all you want) AND the fact that this really has no combat with particles, explosions, terrain interaction, other hunters, etc. I suspect this will end up a PR benchmark to help assuage early OBT fears and we may see another release review bomb for PC just like world/iceborne. I'm hoping for quick post-release patches, be they official or modders doing the machine spirit's work.

But to clarify for the betas, yes, those will not be performance optimized over the first. Just have new monster hunt options of ::: spoiler spoiler gypceros and apparently arkveld now.

If you're hoping this benchmark doesn't have the optimizations, I think, truly hope, you're wrong or I misunderstand.
It would be an unbelievable fumble to release a benchmark without the optimizations. Like I would no longer have faith in Capcom's business decisions.

Looks like my post beta purchase was worth it. Left everything default, DLSS balanced, no ray trace, no frame gen.
Lowest dip I saw was very brief high 50s going into the village.
So looks like they made good on some optimization, but room for improvement.
I still don't think it looks anywhere near good enough to need the power they're asking for. And I bet even I struggle when you throw in denuvo and more particle effects, which were not on show really at all in the benchmark.

oop, preload is tonight. less holding

2nd round of beta is this weekend. hold strong, hunter. preload starts friday night i think

seen some early reports that it will run, but not likely a good experience

I don’t honestly remember getting a drug talk (besides the DARE) program.

I do remember being taken to 3 separate third party sex talk plus a bunch of it in church at many different ages.

Man what a brainwashing our folks did to us.

If you like the stress of combat, and as much as you say “quelling”, I must recommend Warhammer 40k Darktide. Since the last big content patch in ~October that pretty much finally brought it to 1.0, it has essentially been the roguelite, frenetic FPS I’ve been searching for. High skill ceiling, skill-based movement system, target prioritization is paramount, tons of play styles with builds and classes. Give it a shot. Do some ripping and tearing for the emperor.
