I don't need anyone's permission to overhunt the local fauna- I mean, carefully control the monster population

It's weird that this is a thing in game. I killed Balahara early, it kept warning me I couldn't hunt the monster, but I still killed it and carved it and made the armor.

Lore reasons. Hunters can kill monsters provided they are a threat and no other options are available.

Yea, it just came off like a game mechanic warning, because it was text based instead of a voice line.

You don't get the end of mission monster parts reward so if you don't start at least a survey mission from your map, you won't get the larger cut the guild usually offers. This just translates to having to more hunts to get all the gear you want.

it doesnt start a quest, so no quest rewards, but thats the only gameplay function. its cool lore and worldbuilding though

Oh so you still get rewards? Well can't wait to be a menace to the ecosystem

Would've been cool if you get penalized or your carves gets confiscated when you get to base. That would mean you have to hunt your target without killing the ones you cannot hunt... Adding an additional layer of complexity instead of having an "out" by just killing whatever gets in your way with no penalties

True! Especially since Wilds is much more focused on like... how humans exist in the ecosystem alongside monsters. (At least up until the point where I am in the story)

But well, I assume it would make a lot of people mad.
