According to the recent anniversary poll, Namielle is the most popular monster that isn't a flagship (including alts) or an endgame encounter. Just let that shocking fact, sink in...
I find it a shame that the poll was terribly inaccurate because votes for each theme were split between the regular and variant/deviant versions of the same monster-even though these are essentially just more experienced versions of the same monster
@adryquill distinctly not true Blackveil Vaal, for instance, is drastically different from base Vaal. SilvRath is practically a different monster from base Rathalos You just can't pool Acidic Glavenus' votes into regular Glavenus. They're too different. Some monsters like Azure Rathalos are less different, but are still categorically separate monsters from their base species

Skin like Chitin of lobsters, bioluminescence, electricity of an eel delivered via mucus similar to a lung fish, singular wings to tail biological structure, like a manta ray, stingers of a jellyfish, this beauty is the manifestation of the sea! One of the most well designed elders ever! Love it
Like a true predator of the deep using its bioluminescent dots to attract you closer until you are dragged to soon get you neck snapped. What a way to go.
Fun fact. Namelie is completely peaceful until she sees you fighting something. Even if the monster attacked you first, when you attack them she'll join the fight. Or so it seems.
Most Elder Dragons are like that as they don’t see you as a threat. The only Elder Dragons that will attack when they see you are Kirin, Nergigante, and Lunastra. Kirin is actually supposed to be one of the most passive Elder Dragons, but if you stand it’s way for a long time, it will attack. Nergigante will attack you pretty quickly, but at least he warns you to get out of his territory first. Lunastra, well, she wants to kill you the SECOND you’re in her eyesight!
So far this is my favourite Elder Dragon in World. It's design, the colouration, the movements, and sounds it makes like a fish quickly swimming around in water. Really cool, now all that's missing is the water.
Ironically, Namielle is probably one of the most scientifically-grounded elders in spite of its truly eldritch appearance. It doesn't call lightning from the sky like Kirin does - it generates the energy in a special organ like, say, our world's electric eels. It then uses its highly conductive "Water Slime" as a medium to zap its enemies/prey. And then when this thing unleashes its ultimate attack, it's actually visibly drained afterward rather than just returning to "normal".
i prefer when its more grounded since thats what made mh monsters so special among other monsters in media. Great design, great concept, fun fight despite being pretty easy, would hunt again :)
While it would be rather frightening to experience, one's gotta say it: It would be one hell of a beautiful fight if the lights reflected on Namielle's surroundings.
@@walkerpierce5446 It would give a chance for True Lagiacrus to return, not the Generations, Secretly-Ivory Lagiacrus. But I wouldn't hold your breath for the mechanic to be reintroduced (no pun intended), what with Iceborne being the only major expansion planned.
@@Londoniusthe3rd namille's theme is like the villains main theme and first encounter with the hero. bracy's theme is the second battle during the middle of the movie. And vaal's theme is the climax. Lol
It isn't supposed to be too intense, but more dreadful as well as sort of beautiful. Just like the open ocean a dreadful deep abyss that can swallow you, as well as a wonderful realm of some of the most amzing life on our planet. Namielle's theme pushes both with it's fightful visage and it's colorful display and usually calm demeanour.
@@loading2463 in the wiki Chameleos and Namielle are shown to be related monsters, and Vaal Hazak effluvium is basically worse poison, both Vaal & Chameleos use toxic "mist" attacks; plus, the only time Vaal Hazak is found outside of the Rotten Vale is as it's nightcloak variant.

The face is perfect.
Imagine the fight on MH3U under water
Hmm, looks like a great idea.
While it would be rather frightening to experience, one's gotta say it:
It would be one hell of a beautiful fight if the lights reflected on Namielle's surroundings.
How God intended it, if you ask me.

@@jarodathehunter9124 I honestly don't mind underwater and that much. Especially with there experience now I'm sure they could refine it.

Deep sea elder dragon sounding and lookin good
I'd imagine a few tussles between Namielle and an Abyssal Lagi, even Ceadeus, apparently Ceadeus prey on Nami too.
Could imagine it fighting Nakarkos or adult Gobuls
Lots of monster hunter world themes seem to share motifs with one another. This is my new favorite theme regardless of some similarities with others.
This theme is so good it's unreal
I love its design, looks like an Eldritch abomination and that's awesome
Well, knowing it came from the dephts of the sea, you're not so far from the truth...
This is why you eat all your jelly babies and not miss out one.
*Morning Star of the Dark Tide - Namielle* (soundtrack name)
For some strange reason, when I heard some parts of this, all I can think about was, "This could probably fit in a spy thriller."
*Anyone else hear Nargacuga/Val Hazak in this?*
Totally, Nami and Vaal have the same hierarchy in both sides of Coral Highlands, makes sense. I think it also has a classic 007 feel to it as well
Just similar instruments.
oh you mean 1:18?
One of the two best water dragons ever. Perfect.
Who’s the other?
I think ceadeus
@@johncronk8867 Amatsu.
My favorite new theme! Been looking for a high quality version! Thank you for uploading!
....
The name's Elle, Namielle! (Not my original joke)
I was picking up bond vibes too

This is why there should be underwater fights agian. It feels off fighting the Abyssal Dragon on land.
No
Your opinion isn’t a factor :p
@@jarodathehunter9124 lol you are wrong
@@loading2463 Yes.
@@lunastra2366 No. Underwater hunts suck dicks.
Move aside Cthulhu.....there's a new lord of the abyss
The low notes on this theme just emits pure Jaws energy
imagine diving in the deep sea at night and saw lights like these
My favorite elder dragon in world bar none
1:45 *dat buildup tho*
One of the best water dragons in the franchise (Truly the master of the torrent)
I feel like they could have done more to amp up his eldritch nature in the fight itself but the design is great and so is the theme.
It’s a sea creature theme, not a cosmic horror
most fun fight in Iceborne,a Elder Dragon that is both challanging and don't feel cheap with wierd ass hit-boxes
capcom spent so much time making this fight perfect that they forgot to finish velkhana's fight mechanics lmao
@@kitchengun1175Fr. I get hit by the tail move while his tail isn’t even there anymore 🤦♂️
@@Killerking0310 it just substitutes its tail with ice
@@whynato-7142 I meant his physical tail isn’t there (has already passed me) and there is a lingering hit box that causes me to get hit

This theme sounds so classy😂
Get splatoon costume after beat this guy
This mf be the evolution of Gyarados
"Shipwreck"
That's the only thing that comes to mind when listening to this track.
The moment Monster Hunter become Subnautica

Too small
The right of passage for this beautiful creature is getting hit by that water fueled full on evaporation attack like damn

This theme feels like you are sinking with your boat because of this big fish
how long do yall think it will take for capcom to put nami in another game XD
Like 5 years sadly
The giant evil squeaky bath tub toy
This sounds like something out of the incredibles. Is it just me?
I guess it does have a bit of a 1960s vibe in a way.
Like Vaal or Brachy's themes, it has a heroic feel to it.
@@Londoniusthe3rd namille's theme is like the villains main theme and first encounter with the hero. bracy's theme is the second battle during the middle of the movie. And vaal's theme is the climax. Lol

Aquatic tango
I like it but it's not too intense which is what I would've like honestly, this feels like it should be the chase theme.
Thank god you are not the compositor.
It isn't supposed to be too intense, but more dreadful as well as sort of beautiful.
