When I eat a 60 min meal and start getting hungry 20-30 mins in, do I just eat steak or a ration for the missing stamina? That doesn’t reset my meal benefits?
Do what I (and most people) do and just do the basic ration meal. You don't need anything else.

Wilds is my first real MH. I had World since release but had barely played it until now.
In World it feels like you're actually hunting a monster. I enjoy the feeling of being in the wilderness. You can't just fast travel everywhere.
My last hunt had so much back and forth with different monsters showing up. It was more memorable than anything in Wilds.
 
After all this time of trying out different weapons for Wilds I ended up settling for the humble SnS. I think the last time I gave SnS a serious go was during a brief love affair with perfect rush during IB. It didn't last long before I went back to HBG.
But the SnS in Wilds.... It's just so damn good. Its combos are so fluid and natural, the regular triangle combo can be used for small repositions, the slide is amazing for larger ones and comes with i-frames, it has perfect guard and power clash making the shield actually useful for blocking now. Practically its entire moveset is useful now. Even guard slash, which ranged from a joke to actually detrimental in other entries, can now be used to reset for a perfect guard. All that and it's still mobile and can still use items while it's unsheated.
I'm now starting a character that will have nothing but SnS uses on the guild card. It's just a shame that the intro cutscene forces the use of a GS.

having over 1500 hours in World, I can tell you that the "fast travel everywhere" can absolutely be done once you're familiar with the monster's routes and got all the camps opened. as for monsters showing up, I've got plenty of that in Wilds too. I do wish we get to see more of the turf wars thou. more often then not I would miss those because I was still traveling or gathering stuff while I'm on the way but that's partly my own fault.

just hit HR201 and I do agree that Tempered Gore is the only one that's giving me trouble still. I had been trying out lance these last couple of days and I think other than Jin's room wide AOE, Gore's breath attack is the only one that still chipped a big chunck of my hp even when I blocked. and that's with Guard, Guard Up, fully upgraded Arkveld set and all. the fact that I don't get to fight him all that often also means I'm not as familiar with it's attack "tells" as Arkveld's and some of Gore's big moves happens so fast it's almost impossible to dodge or block if you had not face it before. I really hope they'll add more of the other "related" monsters into Wilds later down the road.

Without a doubt the buggiest fight in this game and it's not close

My favorite Jinbug I found was I was hitting him and he started the animation to do his Frost Nova, I immediately tried to run away from underneath him but I couldn't move because I was between him and the wall. I tried to run, I tried to evade roll, I tried to jump. I was trapped underneath his hitbox. After a moment of panic, I did the trick where you open the map and fast travel back to the Makeshift Camp to prevent myself from being carted

Wish I could have recorded that, it was hilarious afterwards to think about
