From Software made some changes through the 1.03 update.
They think this patch will balance the gameplay better, but from what I heard, it may created more imbalance in the future...
We will see.
I also heard patch 1.03 made the game easier, NG+ is no longer hard like hell anymore. A lot of "Asian gamers" believe that this patch is the sign of it's being ready for the western release. If you know what I mean (why Monster Hunter game is not popular in the west).....
