no, you'd obliterate your friends if you played against them. the only reason we can beat monsters like a deviljho is cuz they walk into traps, eat paralyzed meat, and look at flash bombs. if you played as the monster, it's be so one sided - just run to an area with no cliff for gunners, and run when your health drops and eat something. fighting NPCs is plausible, but then they's have to be insanely good. in other words, those felyne heroics people but unable to be OHKOed.
