interesting... it's not secret that they have been using MHW/MH5 to do what they always wanted to, but never could ( for various reasons ) and then there was the revamped Lao S.L. in MHXX... always wonder what madness gave them the inspiration to put Lao S.L. in MHXX... could that be becaus they were already working on a fully revamped Lao for MHW/5? Unless I'm missing something, then I think the chances of seeing Lao in MHW/5 just skyrocketed.
