Low-poly monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds beta spark player creativity and nostalgia
In the beta version of Monster Hunter Wilds, some monsters appear as low-poly models, leading to a mix of confusion and amusement among players. Data-mining suggests these models are simplified versions of highly detailed creatures, designed to save computer resources. Players on Reddit speculate that the game's loading system is failing to display the full detail of monsters at a distance. This has sparked a trend on social media, with users creating tier lists and artwork celebrating the quirky low-poly designs. The low-poly aesthetic has drawn attention for its fun and nostalgic qualities, reminiscent of older video games. Some players are even exploring the idea of making this glitch a permanent feature in the game.
