I know this was posted in the impressions thread, but I thought it deserved a thread of its own.

I didn't want to copy the entire article but there are some other nice details in there. so I absolutely encourage you to read the whole thing.

Quest Rank Structure
Tokuda: ”We do have the same sort of Low Rank, High Rank structure, but in the older titles when you go to High Rank, the story was no longer a concern, but this time we want to make sure the story continues on a thread throughout High Rank. One big difference in the structure is that there's no longer a separation between village hall and gathering hall quests—that distinction doesn't exist anymore. You get a quest and you can choose whether to play it solo or online."
Ryozo: ”I think we've made a nice, meaty story for you guys and as mentioned, it's something that carries throughout the entire game, so it should be a lot of fun."
Temporary Monster Companions
Tokuda: ”We have this new system where there are these native cat creatures in the environment and unlike the previous games you only have one Palico companion that can come on a quest with you, but your Palico can make friends with these native cats, who will teach them the language of the (smaller) monsters. Once they learn a few words, your Palico will be able to make friends with a (small) monster and temporarily join forces with it."
Ryozo: ”It's a situational thing though, they won't join you forever, so make the most of it when it happens."
