Yeah, adding monster's sense would be interesting. Monster would get 3 senses.

Sight, hearing, and smell.

Sight determine how good the monsters able to detect you from its vision. You have to crouch and hide in bushes or behind rocks, so the monster wouldn't be able to see you. Every monster has it's sight range. Some may has a long sight range, some may not be able to see anything, like Khezu. The current armor skill (stealth and taunt) should effect this. It would make you to unlikely be detected by monsters and vice versa.

Hearing makes the monsters able to detect you from how noisy you are. For example, you are running straight to the monster. Even the monster didn't see you, it would hear your footsteps and turning unto you. You can throw rocks at any directions to distract the monsters, so the monster would see at that direction and you may run safely or deliver a deadly stealth attack. There should be some kind of ninja armour that make your steps become unhearable.

Smell, for this one, we should have a wind system. If the wind is blowing straight from you to the monsters, the monster will come to you and investigate the place you are standing. There should also be armours that would make you smelless.
