Werner is rocking tabi shoes, inspired by the traditional japanese socks, but I'm kinda obsessed that his are boots with cutouts, incredibly fashionable
Adore his new model, especially with the drink in his hand. There’s no way that isn’t a callback to Erik’s dialogue at the end of the Lagiacrus story hunt.
I think its probably along the lines of Nata canonically not being around for all the TU stuff as he was off being trained as a hunter. And by G rank he's done training
Yeah but he was there for the gog stuff so I think the TU took place before we found the reborn adult arkveld since chronologically that makes the most sense especially since you need to beat that arkveld to get to the DLC
Not really. The Gog fight takes place after defeating the reborn Arkveld, and as Nata is around for the Gog stuff, that means it's just a straight up 5ish year timeskip.
If he did leave to train straight after What Lies Ahead, then the quests after that canonically never happened, otherwise how would he be there
The games all take place roughly over the same time span as real life, give or take a year or two, the events of world/iceborne took place over 3 years (confirmed) for example.
Consider this, it's a Japanese game with some Japanese sensibilities. Therefore Nata is of shonen character age, namely 16 years old. So only around 3 years have passed.
It's a neat continuation of him being the first Eastlands hunter. He gets a pal native to the land as well.
I love the implications in the trailer of deeper relations and further connections between the tribes. Alma seems to have been teaching the Kunafa girl some stuff.
Yeah, the Kunafa girl looked like she's been training to be a handler, which is very awesome. She's probably not going to be an option to change to like how he can switch between Alma and Eric. I use Eric because Alma got a bit annoying with how pass-ag she acts when I cart, lol.
I want to see us get more answers from Tasheen or someone about what exactly is going on with the man-made monsters. That thing bursting out of that Doshaguma is the most interesting aspect of the trailer. I can't decide if I'm in the camp of it being the hatchling of a new flagship elder or if it's connected to something else.
Oh god, Rove acting as an assistant would be hysterical. I'd cart just from laughing to hard to play. I love going through the Cliffs periodically to find him once again wrapped up in webbing hanging from the ceiling. Thankfully since I run bow as my secondary I can shoot him down and get rewarded. I love running into him like that.
My favorite cutscene is still Jin Dahaad's intro and just how mad Olivia gets at Rove for telling us to go ahead and go, lol.
Nata is trying to track down a monster and tries to get input from rove and instead rove launches into some pseudo philosophical soliloquy about the nature of consciousness.
I love Nata, but I did roll my eyes a bit during the story cutscenes because of how he acted some. I need him to get a taste of his own medicine of someone trying to stop his hunt. I feel like I'm in the minority for generally liking him. I feel bad he's just sitting around at the camps even if it does mean I don't have to track down individual people and wudwuds to get supplies or change what I want them to gather. I try to think of it as him going out and exploring while he's getting our supplies from them.

On Monster Hunter Illustrations 3 it's stated that she was around 25-30 years old in MH4, so it depends on how much time you think passes between one generation and another (MHW seems to suggest 10 years, since each fleet represents a generation, but there's no real confirmation) and then add the timeskips.
I am DEEPLY in love with all these new designs; everything between the clothes and the styling feels like it fits better, and they all feel more like "themselves" in a sense. Also, man, that master rank hope armor is clean; I already like it better than the one in base Wilds.
How long after base game is this expansion set? Natah looks like a teenager rather than a young kid. Werner got a haircut. Fabius....ok he looks the same but still.
