I just want to say they should revamp fatalis. It's too outdated and looks weak compared to the new elder dragons. No idea why they keep on telling us Fatalis is the ultimate monsters. I disagree with that but I don't want to argue about that. Fatalis looks weak, despite what the ecology says.

Fatalis...


 * Has stupidly small wings. I have no idea how it can fly so fast, but anything with wings can fly in this game so I guess its fine.


 * Is pretty slow. Fatalis is fast in the air, but on land, its sluggish.


 * Has tiny limbs. It makes him look goofy.


 * Has nothing unique to it. Just fire balls and other stuff. Crimson summons meteors, but its still meh. Alatreon has four elements, Dala is... Dala, Dhisu has fire and ice, Miralis sunk an island, etc. The list goes on, White Fatalis has awesome red lightning, but the other three points above still aply.

If you want to make a monster the "Perfect Enemy", you should make it look strong. Fatalis should be flawless, and shouldn't rely on fire power alone. It should be fast, smart, strong, graceful, etc. A Fatalis remake would revive his lost glory. I don't want an outdated relic of the past to still be able to be the strongest. Capcom keeps on contradicting themselves by making extremely powerful monsters that outclass Fatalis, and then still claim Fatalis is the strongest without having anything to back it up. Someone can gladly prove me wrong, but I believe there are many monsters that can give Fatty a beating. You can see Capcom is trying their best to improve Fatalis, but his bad design is getting in the way. They even kept that flying animation of his when he goes in the air and completely misses fireballs like an idiot. Fatalis should be treated like it's a god, but its more like "Oh Fatalis exists. Oh well, go kill it".

I don't hate Fatalis, but I really don't like his design. Fatalis looks extremely bland compared to his tittle. I don't get how people could keep on buying this. Pass the torch. Someone else deserves it.

P.S: I'm not taking about Frontier's Fatalis. It has some pretty op abilities, but it still has that design I don't like.
