Monster Hunter Wilds is somewhat infamous for its performance woes, leading its Steam user rating to drop to "Mixed" since release thanks to a host of reported technical issues. However, redditor de_Tylmarande recently posted a potential fix—a homebrewed mod that skips a DLC check, which is said to massively boost performance.
They claim to have first noticed the performance improvements when swapping between a friend's account with all the DLC enabled and their own, and noticing that the game ran significantly better on the former. According to de_Tylmarande, their mod doesn't actually unlock any of the DLC, but instead skips the check confirming it is present, subverting a system-heavy process and leading to a major frame rate boost.
