A good way of looking at it is that everyone in the universe of Monster Hunter were taught tales of a "black dragon" that brought death and destruction, but on one knows what it might look like, so it makes sense that all 5 of these would, in the minds of the people who live in the world, all be called the Black Dragon of legend, even if they are technically different. They can't distinguish and categorized them anyway, as that would suggest there are sightings and people are aware of the nature of these monsters, which they are not. Monsters like Gogma have been sighted, people know its behavior, so it really cant be confused with some ancient tale passed down from generation to generation. Hope that makes sense.
I like to think that the real black dragon was the equal dragon weapon, they tried to program it to target elder dragons but for some reason it targeted the wyverian scientists "something in their genes that connects them to elders?" then fatalis and the rest showed up and was like "stupid baby rajangs, why do we have to clean up after yourselves?" and destroyed it before it could wipe out the world... and decimated shrade just to be sure that won't happen again.
It's interesting that the story for Iceborne said the name Fatalis underwent the opposite process. It used to be a generic term for a "state of existence" and then permanently became associated with that specific monster.
@@tydresen3905 Damn... that hits close to home. Me and my buddies from high school played every MH game from 2nd G (Freedom Unite) to MH4U. Skip to the present, we no longer keep in touch. All I have are the videos we recorded as a group of MH3U...
@@robertwatkins3602 he got copyright striked twice for some reason that probably wasn't necessary by CAPCOM themselves. If you get striked 3 times within a period of time ur channel gets fully terminated. Content, messages, everything. Gone. Gaijin mentioned that he wouldn't post videos until the strikes reset to make sure he keeps his utube channel. It's very stressful considering he coulda lost more than 5 years of work and his livelihood. Also note he is a single dad of one.
I've been playing since the first on PS2 but really earned my stripes on Freedom for PSP. Back then there wasn't a lot of help for these games and it wasn't until several years later I'd found Gaijin. Used to have to make threads of our own asking for advice, discussing weapons, general strategy with everything for years to come. I've gotten a few friends to play and to this day I still do with a good friend, and GaijinHunter has been an absolute godsend. We were talking about him last night and how integral he is to this series, IMO it really wouldn't be the same without him and just a disaster if he were gone. I'm freaking ecstatic how many people play now and how popular it is, and he really deserves his due for helping so damn many of us over the years.
I've always held 4 Ultimate's Crimson Fatalis as the peak standard for what an Elder Dragon should feel like. Every time I watch that intro cutscene, with the despair-inducing soundtrack and the screen completely-scorching-red, I get goosebumps. I was always worried my 3DS was going to burst into flames just from playing the video. Other Elder Dragons are powerful, intimidating, and may even look cooler, but if I was told the Crimson could melt the world itself through sheer body heat, I'd believe it.
Always loved that the Flagships are almost always mid-tier monsters and that you're never even hinted at the last boss of the game. It makes it a wonderful moment when you can finally challenge them.
“This has nothing to do with Iceborne” Alatreon: Allow me to reintroduce myself Vet Players: *PTSD intensifies* Edit: As a noob I never fought Fatalis but damn that doesn’t mean I’m not hyped! I know he’s a huge figure in the lore, I really hope they give him a great move set and not make him a generic dragon fight
I have been thinking back on this video when they released the trailer for Alatreon, iirc the final dlc for 4U was crimson Fatalis and with MH devs finally becoming more lax with the secrecy of the black dragons by showing them off for the 15th anniversary, and now Alatreon coming to Icebourne. It makes me hope that Fatalis will be the final free dlc that they'll release for World/Icebourne and cement Fatalis' appearence in the MH lore.
Kimchivender I’ll admit, mhw is my first and only game of the series, but I’ve listened to the lore and it is very interesting. I really do hope the devs do something like that, but with so much added to the game already that’s free, I feel like we might be real close to the limit. But if not.....maybe they would add Fatalis as a siege??
@@malisk02 Never underestimate. If you played 4u, Freedom Unite or 3u there was a bunch of free content and support for those. I played 4u for years so I wouldn't put it past em. :)
They can technically all be referred to as “Fatalis” if I’m not mistaken. The lore people in the MH team really love to confuse the shit out of people with their naming conventions...
3:43 When you are on the platform of Iceborne Castle Schrade and Fatalis glares at you as he is walking forward on his two legs. Fatalis prefers being on four as he is much faster and can maul hunters. He occasionally walks on two simply to mock the slow walking monkeys facing him.
I watched this video before it was taken down by Capcom, and I am watching it again. :) I always love hearing about the lore behind the different monsters, especially anything about the Elder Dragons, and I think knowing the lore of the universe helps me enjoy the games more than I normally would. Thank you for all these amazing videos.
Should Capcom decide to bring the Black Dragons, especially Fatalis, ESPECIALLY White Fatalis to MHW:IB, I hope they revamp them so that they feel like an overwhelming threat. A battle where you fight for your life. A nightmare come alive. A world ending calamity, as if you are facing God himself. Capcom has the means to do it. Make the Black Dragons a fight that will be remembered in years.
@@eandlbloodflower6765 I think it's a bit too much for players to handle, just make it like mhfz. In mhfz one of white fatalis attack make character disappear from party.
@Adam Stolar That's lame, there are tons of awesome monsters they have brought from previous games and they change them dramatically to the point they are basically new monsters. It'd also be a major shame if new players never get to fight the strongest monster in all of monster hunter, Fatalis.
To make it work they must recreate a lot of things. Even though,if we connect the origins of White Fatalis and the thousands of years a Fatalis can live,we can see that the power level increases incredibly and you can have several levels of threat from what can be considered a "adult" Fatalis (i like to divide them to true adults and subadults),so the fights we took in the main series were not so inaccurate (still could use some improvement),the feel of destruction and hatred for humanity the Fatalis seeks must be passed to the player in a better way. Also they could use a fleeing animation,because as far as i know,the Fatalis that was defeated in all these games (and who's fight has been recreated a billion times) is the crimson Fatalis you face later. The existence of more siege weapons could also help at passing the feeling of STRONG DRAGON and finally they could use some 1 shot attacks because black flame.
*A cataclysm given a form appears, looking at the hunter menacingly, with only that being enough to convey what a destructive force of nature this is.* Fatalis: mlem
Thank you for keeping this up. I don't have friends that play, so the UA-cam MH community are the closest thing I have. You do amazing work. Thank you.
Watched the original version, but watching again because you deserve so much credit & support for what you do for the MH community. Not only have you helped me become a better hunter over the years, your channel has been one of my happy places during recent dark times, so I'm extremely glad it will continue. Please don't ever stop being you Gaijin, because the world needs a lot more people like you.
@Adam no name no zorah magdaros ain’t a black dragon, on the other hand miralis is, I mean it literally killed any life form in the sea that is residing know called the crimson sea.
@Adam Stolar He wasn't downplaying Zorah, he literally stated a fact. While Zorah is a very powerful monster he isn't a black dragon, black dragon's are the strongest monsters in monster hunter. Saying a feat of Miralis isn't downplaying new monsters, it's just showing his might and the difference between a non-black dragon and a black dragon. Coming from someone who never played any of the older games with their first and only being world. Don't be biased against old monsters because you like the new one better.
Happy to see you back on your feet! I have a friend that just started playing Monster Hunter. You are one of the channels that I highly recommend for top notch clear and calm content. Keep up the goodwork as always!
This is so cool. Thanks for this video, Gaijin. I sometimes stop playing MH, but your videos always get me hyped for MH again. I've been a fan since MH1 on PS2. I've loved it ever since. Fatalis is definitely my favorite Elder Dragon. Anyways, thank you for your videos!
I don't know why but I just love the Fatalis in general, it`s my favorite Monster from all Monster Hunter Games, not because of the style of the Fight. But because it looks soo elegant and timeless classic and has something mysterious about it. It looks kinda more ``realistic`` to other. You feel me Guys?
💯Facts Ik what you mean it gives you the vibe of a "True Dragon" I personally think white fatalis is the most beautiful and elegant monster of the whole franchise. Just the fact that he infused the dragon element with the lightning element is amazing
And then Dire Moralis packed up a lot of volcanic rocks thanks to Alatreon, and then departed to the new world under the name of Zorah Magdaros after gaining a few kilos.
I'm happy you're back to doing what you love. My intro to MH was 3 Tri, and I remember those Alatreon runs were sometimes stressful. What was even more stressful was trying to break it's horns (just for a small chance for it to appear in the rewards) without a hammer user or gunner. (I was/am neither of those and I know 3U fixed that parameter.) Still the coolest elder imho as it dished out every element except water.
I'm glad you got the copyright issues sorted man. Will always love Fatalis the most, I've been playing the series since it start, the demo disc for MH on the PS2 that came with DMC. Fatalis will always be the strongest monster to me and I love the White Fatalis being the ancestor of all Elder Dragons, the idea that every monster outside he scope of the natural order started with this one truly ancient creature, which for me will also always make it the top dog. Here is to the Fatalis brothers may they rule for all time and turn up in MHWI.
Who ever said that? I think it won’t return so long as underwater combat isn’t a thing. The game engine for MHW looks like it can do underwater combat pretty damn well, so we’ll have to see.
Eorzat They said their goal with water combat was to push omni-directional combat, and since they weren’t happy with it, they replaced it with the better climbing and mounting. I don’t know how underwater combat would work with mounting or the slinger or the insect glaive in the game, and I don’t expect water combat to come back any time soon because of that.
I really hope they bring the fatalis trio back in iceborne. I can only imagine the new version of the white fatalis song. I'd lose my mind. Love that track.
Your in luck. They did updated versions of both White fatalis and regular fatalis' themes in a recent monster hunter live orchestra ua-cam.com/video/CybtqYqJx20/v-deo.html
That backgroud soundtrack from this video, i used it to calm down during 2022 worldcup. I supported Argentina and most of their game gave me panicked nervous situation. I will always remember this soundtrack
The variant crimson fatalis I have “hunted” once, and never again. He killed me 3 times in a row within the first minute and half of the quest. I was with some randoms and they posted the quest so I thought to myself, “ok, I can help and maybe get the ig, cool” and then that happens. I will also point out I had hear his theme once prior, and said to my friend, “yeah, whatever that song belongs I don’t want to fight, that’s not gonna be fun..” so when I heard the song start I immediately facepalmed knowing I got into a fight with something I had no intention of fighting. Lol
I’m confident Black Fatalis will show up in IB, given how clean and high quality the model is in the anniversary video. The other two, I can’t say, but I would hope Flaming Crimson Fatalis shows up as well. I do agree Dire Morales seems unlikely, by construction. Too bad Akantor and Ukanlos are similarly unlikely, even as non elders
I'm hoping that for the next game they re-introduce water combat, make it faster and make its controls easier, because I really want Dire Miralis to come back. I love its theme, its fight, and its equipment.
If you squint, Dire Miralis looks like Fatalis but with some key differences It doesn't have wings used for flight, and it also stands in that bipedal stance the monster takes Could've been a Fatalis but grown differently but hey, Elders are weird.
I really want to see Alatreon in World. They did color change for it in the fight, but it's not very distinguishable like in the concept art, it doesn't really make you scream "It's white", "It's red"! Now it's more of "Oh there's a little white glowing under it's scales Imagine they made it completely different color everytime it changes element, that's gonna look amazing
Those Monsters(Elder Dragons) aren't ban or can't be fought on the game it's simply "HIDDEN" Just like in MHFU The 3 Fatalis can be fought on after you beat specific no. Of certain elder dragons
Amen. I miss the days when monsters were unfair and actually a challenge. Boss is named after being lethal and deadly, can literally one-shot you. You have two options: craft armor designed to prevent getting one-shot or git gud.
I've never fought any of these guys, but I like Alatreon the most. He looks the coolest in my opinion, and I've always really liked the notion of a monster that can change its elemental affinity. I'm a Final Fantasy fan and that concept is used a lot in those games.
It also makes sense now that in world they wanted to have records of them in case they pop again. I found it cool when it was mentioned how the alatreon records were burned due to be considered a legend, nothing more.
I had the pleasure of playing MH since the beginning. Alatreon is my personal Favorite, the swapping of elements makes for such a fun fight. Back in MH3U there was no Online unless you had a Wii(i did not) so it was up to me to hunt solo, until my lil bro got the game on his DS. After weeks of showing him the ropes and fleshing out our hunting tactics (he used Lance and i used HBG) we took on this monster together for the 1st time.... and we carted A LOT! It took us many tries to get that sweet victory over this black dragon. And to this day we go and hunt it on MHGU 10/10 fight.
I think the most frightening aspect of them that exceeds the idea of an Elder Dragon that these share is that each one of them goes beyond just severe ecological damage, their rampages leave a permanent mark on the area they're in. Dire Miralis permanently annihilates all life in a whole stretch of sea that it lives in. Fatalis had not only wiped out a whole kingdom, but neither man or monster has been able to go back there without mysteriously vanishing. Even if they should be killed, they seem to return constantly over and over again. Fatalis even goes so far that armor and weapons that are made from it possesses its spirit even still, and those who dare to use such materials will find themselves gradually overtaken by the will of Fatalis. What happens after that is left to debate, if they just vanish or they are gradually consumed by the spirit and are turned into the next incarnation of the Black Dragon. Dire Miralis has a similar idea of immortality in that even if it should be slain that it will revive itself after a while and even if it's rendered down to its heart that it will come back. Not even death can stop these creatures, they are eternal just as much as the damage they can bring about upon the world.
White Fatalis is definitely my favorite. While Fatalis himself is quite the presence, nothing say's godlike as how White fatalis is presented. Especially the theme music fits very well with White fatalis, it really conveys his age and experience. I remember fondly how tough it was to take down, his lightning bolts than could easily one shot you and if you weren't standing in a very specific spot were damn near unavoidable. His white, skin that glowed red when enraged was so hard to penetrate if you didn't have some very powerful end game weapons. And while slow moving you still had this sense of urge to take it down quickly because every second you spent with this deity of a dragon was one closer to your own demise.
Alatreon's my favourite to fight, but I've always loved the mythos and lore behind the Fatalis brethren, and how there are tidbits scattered throughout the series that somewhat back it up, like the sword in the ice in Pokke village and how it proves that his scales will regenerate to an extent after death. Also White Fatalis' theme is a contender for my favourite musical theme in all of Monster Hunter.
I think they should make a variant of Alatreon that can fully control all of the elements, and learned how to stabilize itself. Imagine fighting a fully realized avatar, I mean Alatreon?
My personal favorite is definitily Alatreon ! All of the Fatalis versions were an amazing experience, especially White/Old Fatalis. I never got to fight Dire Miralis, but I also didn't really enjoy the bit of Water-Combat that i have tried out in general. Really hope to see Alatreon back in Iceborne !
So idk if i have this right, does this mean that all these fellows are technically all a different Fatalis or is it rather just these are all "The Black Dragon" but only due to the fact that no one really knows what these monsters are so instead folks kinda all assume these 5 are actually just 1?
My favorite is dire miralis mainly because it is the coolest hopefully we will see it in sunbreak where when he is in water you use siege equipment to attack him
Thanks kindly for covering this! ...Although, as much as I fear/respect the challenge that they bring, none get me as tense as the dreaded... Qurupeco. 🤣
A good way of looking at it is that everyone in the universe of Monster Hunter were taught tales of a "black dragon" that brought death and destruction, but on one knows what it might look like, so it makes sense that all 5 of these would, in the minds of the people who live in the world, all be called the Black Dragon of legend, even if they are technically different. They can't distinguish and categorized them anyway, as that would suggest there are sightings and people are aware of the nature of these monsters, which they are not. Monsters like Gogma have been sighted, people know its behavior, so it really cant be confused with some ancient tale passed down from generation to generation. Hope that makes sense.
They could call them the forbidden not forbidden monsters. ;)
@gaijin hunter what is your favorite forbidden black dragons for me crimson fatalis what about you?
I like to think that the real black dragon was the equal dragon weapon, they tried to program it to target elder dragons but for some reason it targeted the wyverian scientists "something in their genes that connects them to elders?" then fatalis and the rest showed up and was like "stupid baby rajangs, why do we have to clean up after yourselves?" and destroyed it before it could wipe out the world... and decimated shrade just to be sure that won't happen again.
Although I’m new to MH I learn the lore by watching UA-cam so that make me interested in MH qwq

fun fact:
Fatalis is an elder dragon kind that fought the early monster hunters eons ago. The descriptions of weapons and quest tells so
I've always held 4 Ultimate's Crimson Fatalis as the peak standard for what an Elder Dragon should feel like. Every time I watch that intro cutscene, with the despair-inducing soundtrack and the screen completely-scorching-red, I get goosebumps.

And now it comes full circle 15 years later killing him in HD
Dire Miralis is my favorite, and it’s a shame that it won’t ever return in subserquent releases.
Who knows? If they perfect the underwater mechanic, it probably will. :)
Who ever said that? I think it won’t return so long as underwater combat isn’t a thing. The game engine for MHW looks like it can do underwater combat pretty damn well, so we’ll have to see.
He Will return just like lagiacrus wait for the ps5 Monster Hunter game Capcom won't let us down
Eorzat They said their goal with water combat was to push omni-directional combat, and since they weren’t happy with it, they replaced it with the better climbing and mounting. I don’t know how underwater combat would work with mounting or the slinger or the insect glaive in the game, and I don’t expect water combat to come back any time soon because of that.
i'm sure they plan on fixing underwater combat sometime and adding it as a staple
I always love how this channel put informative videos yet very relaxing to watch. Pokke village theme song therapy is no joke
Welcome back sir gaijin! Happy to see your new videos as always! ❤
I really hope they bring the fatalis trio back in iceborne.
I can only imagine the new version of the white fatalis song. I'd lose my mind. Love that track.
They better not fall easy prey to Nergi.
@@terrance3218 they won't if they stayed true to faltalis's lore
Your in luck. They did updated versions of both White fatalis and regular fatalis' themes in a recent monster hunter live orchestra

@@Darkrai110 i really hope they dont use that white fatalis orchestra theme, it sounds too weak
@@terrance3218 bruh Nergigante is just like a small dog compared to black dragon

Lifesized Fatalis Eye
so fatalis is sauron???
@@corvuscorax9028
If u put it on a stick yes
Thanks. I'm blind in both eyes so I didn't catch that
@@alexradice8163 Oh... Ok?... But how did you write this comment then?
And how did you find this video?
And how did you read my comment? 🤔
This is a great video for all us fans of MH, I'm happy that this strike situation had been resolved. Keep on doing awesome stuff
That backgroud soundtrack from this video, i used it to calm down during 2022 worldcup. I supported Argentina and most of their game gave me panicked nervous situation. I will always remember this soundtrack
The variant crimson fatalis I have “hunted” once, and never again. He killed me 3 times in a row within the first minute and half of the quest. I was with some randoms and they posted the quest so I thought to myself, “ok, I can help and maybe get the ig, cool” and then that happens. I will also point out I had hear his theme once prior, and said to my friend, “yeah, whatever that song belongs I don’t want to fight, that’s not gonna be fun..” so when I heard the song start I immediately facepalmed knowing I got into a fight with something I had no intention of fighting. Lol
It’s good to see you back again, Gaijin! I hope you get better and don’t have to feel afraid anymore in the future.
Woo! 🎊 Glad Capcom has allowed you to upload a re-edited version.
Oh. YES. The OG is returning! I'm on the hype train!
I’m confident Black Fatalis will show up in IB, given how clean and high quality the model is in the anniversary video. The other two, I can’t say, but I would hope Flaming Crimson Fatalis shows up as well.
I do agree Dire Morales seems unlikely, by construction. Too bad Akantor and Ukanlos are similarly unlikely, even as non elders
not gonna lie I'm kinda scared of this video being up
Sorta have the fear of Capcom going all "There is another" Yoda
Because, that is what Capcom and Monster universe wants you, to be scared on this world.
Been waiting for the reupload hopefully it gets more views than the original
Fatalis: I'm immortal and you become me one day
White fatalis: The hot fish god
Crimson Fatalis: It's facking RAW!
I thought white fatalis is the last one
Fun fact: white fatalis in frontier has an attack that will literally vaporize you, resulting in an instant quest failure
Man the armor for white fatalis looks sick - it straight up looks like dmc devil trigger.
I'm hoping that for the next game they re-introduce water combat, make it faster and make its controls easier, because I really want Dire Miralis to come back. I love its theme, its fight, and its equipment.
If you squint, Dire Miralis looks like Fatalis but with some key differences
It doesn't have wings used for flight, and it also stands in that bipedal stance the monster takes
Could've been a Fatalis but grown differently but hey, Elders are weird.
I really want to see Alatreon in World. They did color change for it in the fight, but it's not very distinguishable like in the concept art, it doesn't really make you scream "It's white", "It's red"!
Now it's more of "Oh there's a little white glowing under it's scales
Imagine they made it completely different color everytime it changes element, that's gonna look amazing
Those Monsters(Elder Dragons) aren't ban or can't be fought on the game it's simply "HIDDEN" Just like in MHFU The 3 Fatalis can be fought on after you beat specific no. Of certain elder dragons
I love the just holy sh*t addition to the theme
Special Variant Crimson Fatty has my favorite theme music from all the monsters. So epic, yet bone chilling. Such a memorable fight too!
Yeah personally I think they should have kepted that theme for him going into MHGU.
This was an awesome exhibit! I was able to see it in yokohama earlier this year.
Back on the psp in mhfu I remember solo hunting the white fatalis for days trying to get the armors,
mahn... thanks for the reupload... fatalis takes me back to those good old days...
Amen. I miss the days when monsters were unfair and actually a challenge. Boss is named after being lethal and deadly, can literally one-shot you. You have two options: craft armor designed to prevent getting one-shot or git gud.
i mean.. there are still monsters that are unfair and challenging hahaha
I've never fought any of these guys, but I like Alatreon the most. He looks the coolest in my opinion, and I've always really liked the notion of a monster that can change its elemental affinity. I'm a Final Fantasy fan and that concept is used a lot in those games.
Glad everything worked out Gaijin. I'll be glad to catch up on videos when Iceborn comes out on PC.
It also makes sense now that in world they wanted to have records of them in case they pop again. I found it cool when it was mentioned how the alatreon records were burned due to be considered a legend, nothing more.
Now I understand why you were hyping the monster intros from MH4U on Twitter lol
I had the pleasure of playing MH since the beginning. Alatreon is my personal Favorite, the swapping of elements makes for such a fun fight. Back in MH3U there was no Online unless you had a Wii(i did not) so it was up to me to hunt solo, until my lil bro got the game on his DS. After weeks of showing him the ropes and fleshing out our hunting tactics (he used Lance and i used HBG) we took on this monster together for the 1st time.... and we carted A LOT! It took us many tries to get that sweet victory over this black dragon. And to this day we go and hunt it on MHGU 10/10 fight.
I think the most frightening aspect of them that exceeds the idea of an Elder Dragon that these share is that each one of them goes beyond just severe ecological damage, their rampages leave a permanent mark on the area they're in. Dire Miralis permanently annihilates all life in a whole stretch of sea that it lives in. Fatalis had not only wiped out a whole kingdom, but neither man or monster has been able to go back there without mysteriously vanishing. Even if they should be killed, they seem to return constantly over and over again. Fatalis even goes so far that armor and weapons that are made from it possesses its spirit even still, and those who dare to use such materials will find themselves gradually overtaken by the will of Fatalis. What happens after that is left to debate, if they just vanish or they are gradually consumed by the spirit and are turned into the next incarnation of the Black Dragon. Dire Miralis has a similar idea of immortality in that even if it should be slain that it will revive itself after a while and even if it's rendered down to its heart that it will come back. Not even death can stop these creatures, they are eternal just as much as the damage they can bring about upon the world.
I love the moralis armour! Reminds me of the nerscylla armour but more beefy. I started playing from 4U so I'd never heard of it until this video.
It's nice that the armor is available in 4U
This is really awesome!
I'm really partial to MH3. I love the Dire Miralis
Gotta love that vayu sedition slicing for crazy survivability!
Fatalis is such an eerie monster. His presence alone is enough for me and my friends to lose hope battling him.
gog isn't considered a black dragon but is a final boss with not much known about it that is black in coloration and also a dragon.
I dont know if it ia canon. But Capcom already dropped the bomb that one of the Forbiddwn Dragons is back in MHWI
yup alatreon is coming to ice born
@Adam Stolar Sorry. It is a typo accident.
The pokke village bgm in your vid brings back memories lol
i hope everything got settled we dont wanna lose your channel :
"The parts we needed to break where like magma cores" dann kinda sounds like some giant monster that looks similar
Screen: terrifying monster
Music: just vibin' with my cat-boyz!
So for those who are wondering what HR you unlock the fatalis trio in GU then here it is fatalis: HR: 90. crimson: HR 95. White fatalis: HR 100.
i always support you bro. you help hunters a lot, be bless and stay forward... more videos :)
White Fatalis is definitely my favorite. While Fatalis himself is quite the presence, nothing say's godlike as how White fatalis is presented. Especially the theme music fits very well with White fatalis, it really conveys his age and experience. I remember fondly how tough it was to take down, his lightning bolts than could easily one shot you and if you weren't standing in a very specific spot were damn near unavoidable. His white, skin that glowed red when enraged was so hard to penetrate if you didn't have some very powerful end game weapons. And while slow moving you still had this sense of urge to take it down quickly because every second you spent with this deity of a dragon was one closer to your own demise.
Honestly the name itself is terrifying. Fatalis: Fatal, alias. The “Fat” part sounds like fate.
I like the idea that all of the monsters have super detailed and realistic Ecology, and then Fatalis just says “Get Rekked”
Second time Im watching this, so happy for you that everything got resolved, so I gladly watched it again!
Alatreon's my favourite to fight, but I've always loved the mythos and lore behind the Fatalis brethren, and how there are tidbits scattered throughout the series that somewhat back it up, like the sword in the ice in Pokke village and how it proves that his scales will regenerate to an extent after death.
Also White Fatalis' theme is a contender for my favourite musical theme in all of Monster Hunter.
Glad that Capcom followed the KISS rule when it came to creating the Fatalis, because it worked amazingly.
When you see fatalis you would think that his roar would be powerful to deaf somebody but it's a high pitched scream
I think they should make a variant of Alatreon that can fully control all of the elements, and learned how to stabilize itself. Imagine fighting a fully realized avatar, I mean Alatreon?
This video aged pretty well tbh
My personal favorite is definitily Alatreon !
All of the Fatalis versions were an amazing experience, especially White/Old Fatalis.
I never got to fight Dire Miralis, but I also didn't really enjoy the bit of Water-Combat that i have tried out in general.
Really hope to see Alatreon back in Iceborne !
Wish granted
I like how White Fatalis has his own theme cuz he’s such a legend
So idk if i have this right, does this mean that all these fellows are technically all a different Fatalis or is it rather just these are all "The Black Dragon" but only due to the fact that no one really knows what these monsters are so instead folks kinda all assume these 5 are actually just 1?
Glad to see you back in your element brother!! 😁😁
My favorite is dire miralis mainly because it is the coolest hopefully we will see it in sunbreak where when he is in water you use siege equipment to attack him
Funny how he said this had nothing to do with MHW then they immediately dropped Fatalis in MHw
Thanks kindly for covering this!
...Although, as much as I fear/respect the challenge that they bring, none get me as tense as the dreaded...
Qurupeco. 🤣
The first dragon has an Alduin feel to him....or maybe I just haven’t played Skyrim in a while. Lol
