Second. I always found it hard to believe the predators created anything themselves. The fact they can barley see and the long finger nails seem to say to me that they are nothing more than primitive hunters, and science the have was found or stolen. Most scientists think the smarter a life form the more physically weak they would be. Predators having brain and brawn never sat with me.

Maybe... but with that logic how in the world have they’ve been operating their wrist computers, spaceships and other technologies in the movies? Their eyesight gives them an obvious disadvantage, but time and time again in the films we’ve seen Predators be able to operate just fine without the aid of masks filtering out heat to see their victims?

If they have such disadvantages that would keep them from being able to build/ develop their own technology how could they begin to understand much less operate the technology of other alien species? The way I see it they they are just like humans except evolution has allowed them to be physically and mentally superior.

The Alpha’s backstory is neat, but I’m glad or at least hope it doesn’t become canon. Their are so many comic inconsistoes work the lore any way that I prefer to stick with what is established on the big screen. I think the Predators origins like many origin stories for franchises that never originally had them always end up being kind of disappointing like “Oh that was it? That’s okay I guess? Alien Covenant comes to mind.

In any case, My story for Alpha is much simpler:

“Alpha’s Predator’s tribe doesn’t use technology very much and they hunt creatures that are the equivalent of the JVC design and wear their corpses as trophy armor. The end.”
