Upon turning on your computer and opening Monster Hunter Rise for the first time, the game will take some time to load all of the necessary shaders to make the game look presentable.
Shaders are responsible for making a game look pretty and pleasing by adjusting the levels of rendering, light, and color of the game.
Monster Hunter Rise isn't as graphically-groundbreaking like other games, but the game's visual elements still needs to be loaded every time you boot it up.
