We're all just roleplaying as our ancestors hunting down mammoths and giant sloths to get fur and meat. No wonder it's so addictive.The book is Sapiens btw

So up until very recently, the monster hunter games had a theme of living in balance with the environment and monsters were only hunted to help control manageable numbers or if some had gone out of control. Then they were apparently specifically told to tone down their environmental messaging to appeal to a wider audience.
