Monster Hunters Wilds prioritizes culinary experiences over traditional monster-hunting gameplay. Lavish cutscenes showcase cooking and food preparation, drawing players into the world of the game. However, these scenes do not provide a sense of security when facing aggressive monsters.The purpose of these cooking sequences is unclear. Are they meant to be a safety mechanism or simply a creative choice? The inclusion of food in Wilds has sparked debate among gamers. While some may appreciate the unique approach, others see it as a distraction from core gameplay.
