While most players of *Monster Hunter* are familiar with the thrill of hunting monsters, the art of capturing them is equally significant. In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, capturing a monster and lingering nearby can lead to an amusing and unexpected interaction, as discovered by the community.
A Reddit user, RDGtheGreat, shared an intriguing observation on the r/MonsterHunter subreddit. After capturing a Nu Udra and patiently waiting, players can witness the monster simply getting up and leaving after a brief rest. This scenario has sparked humorous comparisons to a film set wrapping up, adding a light-hearted touch to the game's atmosphere.
Fun fact: captured monsters just get up and leave within a minute of napping
For those curious about the in-game rationale behind this phenomenon, it aligns well with *Monster Hunter Wilds*'s approach to monster research. Rather than using giant cages, the game adopts a catch-and-release method, which resonates with the ethos of Alma and the research team throughout the narrative.
Regardless of the lore's specifics, this feature adds a charming element to the gameplay. It's impressive to see Capcom's developers have considered such scenarios, opting for a dedicated animation instead of a simple fade-out. Watching a monster, now missing several limbs, scurry away adds a whimsical yet insightful glimpse into the research practices of Alma and her crew.
In other news, *Monster Hunter Wilds* has recently received Patch 1.000.05.00, which addresses quest progression issues and various bugs. While performance improvements are still in development, the game currently holds a 'mixed' rating on Steam.
