Monster Hunter Wilds players likely spent the weekend immersed in numerous hunts and activities. Meanwhile, PC modders have been hard at work tackling one of the initial frustrations of Wilds: Character Edit Vouchers.
Character Edit Vouchers and Palico Edit Vouchers made their return in Monster Hunter Wilds, drawing complaints from both newcomers and veteran players alike. However, PC modders swiftly developed a solution to bypass the system and enable unlimited character and Palico edits.
This community-driven fix was somewhat predictable, given that modders previously addressed similar issues in earlier Monster Hunter titles. The mod itself is quite simple, removing the need to manage edit vouchers before accessing the character creation screen. While minor adjustments like hairstyle or makeup are freely available, more extensive changes typically require purchasing a voucher, which this mod eliminates.
Looking ahead, Monster Hunter Wilds is expected to attract significant attention from the modding community, as has been the trend in previous games. Modders often focus on enhancing cosmetics, improving the user interface, adjusting drop rates, or boosting performance, with the latter being particularly crucial.
Capcom has already acknowledged PC performance concerns and issued a troubleshooting guide for affected players. Discussions surrounding optimization have persisted throughout the launch weekend on the Monster Hunter subreddit’s Performance Megathread, where users continue to collaborate on tweaking game settings.
Despite these challenges, players remain eager to dive into Monster Hunter Wilds. Capcom’s latest installment contributed to Steam’s highest concurrent player count, marking a milestone for the series. Over time, we’ll see how players engage with the game beyond its initial launch.
For those starting their Monster Hunter Wilds journey, consider exploring what the game doesn’t explicitly reveal, along with a comprehensive guide to its 14 weapon types. Additionally, stay tuned for an ongoing Monster Hunter Wilds walkthrough, a multiplayer guide for playing with friends, and instructions on transferring your beta character.
IGN awarded Monster Hunter Wilds an 8/10, noting: “The game successfully refines the series’ rough edges in clever ways, offering enjoyable battles but falling short of delivering meaningful challenges.”
