The new trailer is, awesome and beautiful. I love how the CGI intro (?) looks. The music is amazing as well. I do think the sealed wall with the symbol has something to do with Goa Magara's origin, perhaps it was a species that hurt the ecosystem so they had to be put away but they escaped and thrived, or even a man-made predator who carried the virus and the scientists, seeing their mistake, put it away until now. Who knows, only time will tell.

It seems there will be some focus on the Sand Dragonship as it appears even in the intro. Perhaps the new Jhen-like monster will be the final boss of one of these villages. I like the focus on NPC's, at least we can be assured there will be some kind of developed story somewhere.

Generu Serutasu and Aruserutasu are really fast together, much faster than I expected at least. Garara Aajara looks very fluid and definitley snake-like and the animation when a hunter is on it looks nice. Also it seems Goa Magara might have more than one intro since we've seen parts of it in the Ruins Field and now this one with the Felyne.

Zinogre is back which was something I wasn't expecting although seeing him jump from ledge to ledge in the Misty Peaks did show it had potential for this elevated environment. (Not sure if the idea is officially out of the water but could Goa Magara also fall under Fanged Wyvern?) KIRIN IS BACK! I thought it was more footage of Zinogre but it was Kirin. My ultimately favorite monster is returning. There are no words to describe how glad I am to see it return. (Being able to ride it with Wroggi armor would be awesome too).

New arena looks good although being able to seperate two monsters might be a little cheap in the end. Also to those complaining about no new monster, the Whaleship seems to play a somewhat important role so a new monster to fight it with is basically a given, perhaps the one to fight at the Frozen Sea. Goa Magara in rage looks pretty dynamic with technically six legs to move and attack.

All in all I can't wait to see what the full list of monsters will be although I am a tad bit dissapointed no desert area was revealed yet but eh Kirin makes up for it.
