--- Famitsu Article Q&A ---

https://www.famitsu.com/news/201706/14135490.html

	>Game was originally to be called Monster Hunter 5. They decided to go with Monster Hunter: World instead because they didn't want to scare new players to the series. The game is Monster Hunter 5 in all but name.
	>"World" is how they express the scale and how everything feels alive.
	>Not open world, just seamless transitions between zones
	>New continent, players and npcs act as first explorers, items have been reworked, no paintballs.
	>The maps are about twice the size as they were before.
	>Multiple base camps as you set them up yourself (perhaps during the story)
	>Walk slowly while eating meat or drinking potions, you can also cancel the animation incase you misclicked
	>Monsters will chase you between areas seamlessly
	>A larger focus on gathering healing items, rather than bringing in items.
	>The slinger is a subtool, the game is still very much about your main weapon.
	>You can only grapple from set hook markers
	>Slinger is also used for shooting the ground to lure monsters (throwing stones)
	>Damage numbers can be toggled off, they thought long and hard about it's inclusion and very much understand that seeing the monster damaged as you hurt it is a big part of the game
	>Less blood splashes, but scars and scratches will appear on the monster more frequently
	>Blood still on tail cuts.
	>No village quests, however the story is done through the multiplayer and can be done solo.

	>Damage numbers are there so players don't need to worry about motion values etc.
	>You can move around slowly while healing, no sprinting
	>Voiced NPCs/Cutscenes for atleast tutorial information
	>There is now a radial menu to allow you to quick select items. The traditional left/right scrolling menu still exists, but the radial one is there for quick use
	>When mounting a monster you can move around the body to attack different parts. The map is now your indicator for when to hang on, it'll glow red when the monster is trying to throw you off. And at certain parts you can use your main weapon to attack from mount.
	>Status effects are now visible on your actual character. We saw poison cover the hunter's gear in this purple liquid
	>Items can now be gathered whilst moving; you can run past honey and grab it from a tree, or grab herbs from a bush
	>You can also move a little bit whilst using healing items. You can walk whilst drinking a potion or eating a steak
	>You are now able to change gear & weapons mid hunt. You can go to the base camp, open your box and swap equipment.
	>You are also able to fast travel back to the base camp (assuming only when you're not in combat with the monster)
	>You CAN still pre-make teams and go on hunts together, the 'drop-in' multiplayer system is just to give you more options when you're solo hunting
	>Hunter Arts/Styles appear to be gone. Based on gameplay seen, weapons do have new moves, and combat looks more fluid, but this is likely more traditional hunting akin to that of something like 4U.
	>Greatsword still slow like it normally is, new combos
	>Critical distance is still a thing for bows, new combos
	>Aggro Mantle called the Challenge Mantle, good for luring monsters into traps
	>Scoutflies is an item help you track monsters, help you track down and find monsters by looking at the environment. You can still find them traditionally.
