The order of MHGU before MHW was deliberately chosen. MHGU is technically just the English version of MHXX which already released in 2017 on the Switch and 3DS and it was only the expansion of MHX from 2015. So, when it comes to the time of development MHW's Rathalos has to come later. Also, MHFU release was 2007 in Japan, March 2008 in the West. Minor mistake. Hope you enjoy the video!

We played almost all of the MH games since the beginning but we don't have all of our old consoles anymore or sufficient means of recording especially for consoles like PS2, PSP, and Wii /WiiU. So big thanks to these guys for sharing their saves so we could record all of the games!

    classic gen 1 rathalos knocking me down with wind over and over then flying around the map doing nothing for 3 minutes. peak fight
  • @johnzt8020
    Honestly, when you look back to the 1st generation, MH actually done a pretty good job with the limitation of tech at the time.

    It only took 17 years, but they finally made a Rathalos fight that was better than “tolerable”.
  • @Stratelier
    Comedic highlights: 3:14 - Hunter turns towards the camera as if to say "Get a load of this male wyvern" 11:20 - Roared out of the current zone 15:50 - Paralyzed out of a GS's True Charged Slash

    As someone who started in world, i never realized that damage numbers on hits were new.
  • @LegendErick
    It's amazing the jump in visuals from 4 to 5. Can't wait for MHWilds!
  • @BleddynsStudio
    I remember my first time beating Rathalos in MH1 took over 40 minutes. The amount of downtime you get as he just flies around the map is insane
  • @tririfandani1876
    Remember in classic MH 1, I have to bring mega pickaxe / mega bugnet & its crafting materials to farm ores / insects. Remember in classic MH 1, eager cleaver exists as a great sword, because at that time there is no long sword. Remember in classic MH 1, I always wondering how to get the sword behind the house. Remember in classic MH 1, there are monoblos & diablos, basarios & gravios. Also plesioth which we can "fish" using a frog. It brings back my memories. MH 1 was my first MH games, and it was a really great game in PS2.

    Very very few will understand how impressive that first flash bomb is.
  • @jollyjunior2086
    It’s crazy how much their roars have changed over the years
  • @nilsongarcia3983
    That’s really nice how we can see the game development along the years, the new mechanics being added to the game and also how the passe is getting faster on every gen
  • @adreanl.2004
    the way you have to change the camera view at zone 9 is very nostalgic 2:17
  • @abysgaming1294
    Same, i started Mh on PS2, Online, cause i'm in France, i maybe have already played with some of you back then ! I remember 4 horns, Claw day (Huuuge), the duo (troublesome pair, that i even farm Offline) with the spear lock, and the coming of the Fatalis ! Thanks for the memory, great content !

    Rathalos is incredible iconic. I still remember the two trailers of the PS1 game. I was very young back then and terrible at the game. I think the first time you encounter him is on the last 1 star quest where you have to deliver an egg. You had to run away from him. This was terrifying and also pretty hard for me back then
  • @BleddynsStudio
    The way he and some other wyverns insta-charge in MH1 is crazy. The final village boss Monoblos felt easier than all of them because he actually winds up his charge.
  • @robin6416
    I can easily feel that Gen1 is really painful to fight. but damn, that moment he hovering far behind the tree is really amazing and lore accurate for a predator in the sky.
  • @Mateiblundered
    That paintball miss at the start brought back soooooo many memories; especially when the charge followed! Love it! ❤❤
