Most people associate Monster Hunter with hunting monsters, but capturing them is equally important. In Monster Hunter Wilds, players have stumbled upon an amusing interaction that unfolds when they capture a monster and linger nearby.

As shared by Reddit user RDGtheGreat on the r/MonsterHunter subreddit, sticking around a captured monster long enough reveals a delightful behind-the-scenes moment. The monster simply gets up and leaves, akin to a film crew wrapping up a scene. After capturing a Nu Udra and waiting, players watched as the giant cephalopod casually rose and departed, prompting humorous comparisons to a movie set.

For in-universe explanations, it appears that the research team in Monster Hunter Wilds adopts a catch-and-release approach, fitting the game's narrative led by Alma and her team. This method aligns with the game's ethos and adds depth to the story.

This quirky interaction is a testament to Capcom's attention to detail. Rather than a simple fade-out, the developers crafted an animation showing the monster, now missing several limbs, scurrying off into the distance. It's a humorous yet insightful touch that sheds light on how Alma and her crew conduct their research.

The recent Patch 1.000.05.00 for Monster Hunter Wilds addressed quest progression issues and bugs, with further performance enhancements expected. Despite these updates, the game currently holds a 'mixed' rating on Steam.
