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.

For real, that was us. Megafauna are not viable anymore cause some hairless apes are going to throw stuff at the big target if its there. And apparently throwing stuff accurately is so OP that it took us to the top of the foodchain. Crazy.
People used spears as pikes and braced against earth to kill mammoths. Throwing stuff is OP as well.
That, and patiently walking at a brisk pace
