There was never any evidence of that to begin with. I never heard one of those salty Nintendo purists elaborate on what exactly was westernized.

  "Faster eating animations + eating while walking" is one of the reasons, that alone makes the game much easier in boss encounters, one of the nice things about single player is exactly finding a time window to use potions during the boss fight. Or bosses will allow for significantly less down time, making the faster animations necessary.

  "The hookshot" that makes your moviments faster making it easier to run and evade from the bosses. Or it makes the fights faster, much like the difference between Dark Souls and Bloodborne.

  "lowered IA" there's times where the rathalos acts dumb, he just keeps flying around doing nothing, not even low rank rathalos in the psp version does that. Where did you even get this? He specifically states enhancing the AI as one of the reasons for the move to current gen.

   There are only two positive points in this new version: the loading times being taken out and the world being more detailed. And the faster gameplay, better AI, increased storage for content (both on disc and via DLC)...

  And i don't get why you think the criticism comes from nintendo purists only, i play mh since the 2 on psp and i didn't like some of the changes that makes the game easier and pretty much anyone can play this game, it's gonna be on pc and by the looks of the game any pc from 2008 can run it. Because it generally does come from Nintendo purists, though it would seem there's also a minority for those upset that it isn't on handheld.
