The PC beta for Monster Hunter Wilds has just wrapped up and, uh, it was something alright. Players felt the full wrath of the pretty beefy system requirements, with some rigs making Wilds look more like the original PS2 debut rather than a game that's supposed to be releasing in the year of our lord 2025.
Mind you, that didn't stop the beta from racking up nearly half a million concurrent players on Steam. If anything, folk seem to have taken to memeing on Wilds' low-poly foes in a surprisingly endearing way. I saw several Reddit posts lovingly refer to them as "origami monsters", which subsequently kicked up a ton of cool fan art—one user drew elder dragon Valstrax as an "exclusive for PC user" paper-folded variant, while another took Velkana from Monster Hunter World's Iceborne expansion, drawing it "Monster Hunter Wilds PC style".
