I think the reason they are bringing back villages from the first 3 generations is the same reason they brought back so many monsters from the 1st and second generation... a lot of people playing monster hunter 3-4 U didn't play the game when it was in PSP, these villages, like the monsters in MH4U, are brand new to them.
