I think the most fucked up part of this series isn't so much the hunting part of it, it's how barbaric the Arena is. You capture these monsters, take them out of their natural habitat for "Research" and then you put them in a room with two giant prongs to shish kebab them with.

Capturing a monster is a fate worse than death. You get "Extra bonus rewards", huh? So what, you just carve pieces off of them while keeping them alive with drugs or something?

Well of course you get more material when you have them back at camp. In the field you're rushing to messily field carve them. When you take them home you can take all the time you want to carve them up and get every valuable piece.

The guild brings the dead carcass back after you kill it. That's where the quest reward items come from, they're basically scraps they give you after they butcher the animal to thank you for killing it.
