They fight because the game/movies need to happen
Why fight?

Rip samurai.
Easier said than done. Not to mention we’ve only seen two preds self destruct before. I don’t think that’s a good sample especially when only one of them set up a pre-mature explosion.
It’s about protecting they’re technology.
Even if we could we wouldn’t. No one would.
Or it’s because we prefer guns.
The explosion is to prevent they’re technology being lost to other species.
Predators view Predaliens as abominations.
Not to mention they move from weak prey to stronger prey ad they get older and stronger.
Don’t get shot. Even if we ignored the honorable hunters angle and say they’re honorable warriors. Am I suddenly dishonorable for going for the hand in a duel?
Sounds familiar.
Reason for that is Hollywood.
Even body builders will die to a headshot.
That’s like saying because we’re more advanced than lions we should be able to take one on that’s also wearing full armor with fake claws equiped with our bare hands.
Hollywood proves humans are equipped with the latest plot armor.

Cuz theyre sore losers. That’s literally as strong as it gets but they get salty because it reminds them they’re capable of failure.
Who isn’t

Losing is tight!!
No one would buy ammo and guns for sport hunting if we could just walk outside and leap 20 feet onto a deers back and kill it lol. Or had the speed to easily catch fish with our bare hands.
Preds boobytrap a toddler playpen and then throw them around in fistfights and shoot them in the back just because. A human isnt any kind of physical threat to a predator but one guys failed trap going off late makes us the most clever species in the galaxy? We get lucky and knock the space bully’s glasses off and beat him with his own stick while hes blinded and that makes us worthy prey because the bully was fucking around and found out?
Preds r dum dum
I always wondered , they clearly didn’t think highly of the predalien but then wolf de-masked for a fair fight . Pfffft , everyone knows you work a lions body in a fight to win
And Wolf got his shit rocked and all his weapons eventually disarmed. He had nothing left at that point, whip got outplayed & disarmed and Wolf dropped his pistol for the humies like a failure.
The better question is why the predalien just stood there and watched him striptease other than the movie being terrible. Maybe predaliens are truly the most honorable species in the galaxy. They should go fuck with them instead of streetcops.
Enforcers and Badbloods might be assholes hunting their fellow hunters but atleast they’re not terrified of losing to inferior races & fight in their weight class lol
This is actually a thread?
It’s a fictional character they fight humans because the script and the story demand so
You think they gonna make money off predators going to court and making a truce with the humans

Some humans hunt for ‘sport’; they have trophies too. Food is just a consolation prize. You can buy food in a grocery store
Are you saying that we should anounce to fish or dear that we are the to kill them? We use tricks (worm) and shoot them in the back (rifle shots) too
More like if we were physically superior to such a degree fishing rods would be pointless.
No one would fish if everyone was a genetically engineered apex predator and could just stick their hand in the water and casually grab the fish faster than it can even react.
The fish pose zero threat to us but they’re still faster and we are slow so we have to use tricks to catch them efficently because we suck.
A predator bear trapping people is just for laughs considering they can just jump down and tear the guys head off his shoulders.

I wouldn’t say it’s for laughs. Direct approach is not always the best solution. Plus, he finds out some intel about how good people are at finding traps and how they react and learn. Is good to immobile play and diatract. He’s facing many prey that can fight back and adapt.
That’s what the autoaim shoulder mounted canon is for though
Guns blazing is always an option so why not try a more stealthy/tricky apprach first?
He’s in the position to make the rules of the game, while the humans are so week that all they can do is cririsize. I bet engaging the pred in a philosophical argument crossed Dutch’s mind a few times ‘if only we could argue about use of advanced tech in a hunt then I’d show him who is the bahs’

Good replies. I’m with you on a lot of this. In the grand scheme, they are fictional movie monsters, so not everything will make sense. They hunt for status, they follow their honor code, and they destroy themselves if captured. It’s not that difficult to understand.

Like I said, it’s not everywhere like that. There are still lots of places on earth where you will not find everything you need in a grocery store nearby.
He has clearly never been to Scotland 😁

I agree that people still hunt /fish for food, but still there are exceptions. Preds hunts are that type of an exception.
At the end if predator he actually outsmarts Dutch by double backing. That was the win in hunting tactics. Dutch wins in the end by sheer luck that the trap happens to be in that place and that pred allowed him to get there.
Being able to leap to a prey and being physically stronger is not enough when there are multiple humans grouped together with guns. That’s how you get melted (just like in the game). That’s why PC, traps and cloak is used. Plus, even those don’t guarantee a win since humans can potentially see through the cloak with tech and detect traps. Just firing PC exposes your position so it’s risky too if let’s say snipers are around.
Anyway. The movie is made to show that preds are clearly OP and then humans win by some lucky. It’s a classic underdog story which is an exception to the rule throughout history
