Let's talk about MK, the game where threads are filled with autists crying about irrelevant things like women's fashion

I'm honestly on the fence about it. I like a lot of the roster but as I've been seeing more gameplay for it with the reveals and kombat kasts I just think it's too slow for my liking.

Maybe I just got used to playing faster games like KI, FighterZ and MvC3 but I think stuff like kombat and street fighter are just too slow anymore.

almost as if this happens every time. Anyway, Kano and Cassie both look like a lot of fun. This game has definitely lived up to the "Every week everyone's maiming the new reveal" thing going

Who's that guy cosplaying Kano

The gameplay being slow is honestly due to the fact that it's Tyler and Derrick playing, and the Pro players they had were on the game for half an hour before playing their sets. Speed really shouldn't be an issue, but it could still be a hair slow for some. Especially guys who first played MKX with their get in for free button

Austin Aries

NRS has been getting really really good at making a fighters character come out and making them stand on their own with some fan favorite nods. Johnny was the best I've seen. I've been loving all of them and cant wait for Liu, Lao and Noob.

Supposedly frost is going to be in the game and I just hope she plays like a faster sub zero with better mix ups.

I'm just worried that a lot of the characters we've had revealed so far play pretty similar. I understand that makes it a bigger esports title and means the game will be more popular but I want different styles in terms of how everyone plays. Kano seems to have a lot of command grabs but I really want a death by paper cuts type character.

Frost is in

What a massive improvement holy shit

Cassie's fatalities look fucking great. bothers me that her voice is higher than last time though.

I've been following these games since the very beginning. It feels weird to only have a MK waifu just now.

oh also her drone looks fucking stupid

Jacqui is such a waste of a roster slot, holy fuck. You'd cut Reptile but leave in that absolutely nothing character?

The only thing Reptile did right was being the bitch possessed body of Onaga. Hes a garbage spit baby and so are you

I'm glad they seem to have fixed Cassie's face but I'm not a fan of the long hair.

The Kano fatality they showed was pretty lame, I guess we've been spoiled to the point where a good ol head explosion isn't enough.

Shao Khan's helmet is so huge lmao.

Not big enough

>Johnny's doll says Cassie on the foot
>Cassie's cup has name misspelled

Its the little things.

Head Explosion is fine, its just the build up to it that needs work. I mean look at Cassie's one where she shoots them a few times then kicks them in the balls so hard they split in half and their spin and skull shoot up into the air. the spin and head removal is pretty stand MK but its the execution of it that matters.

What Kano should have done was pin their feet to the ground with his knives then hit them with an eye laser until their head explodes like in scanners. Now thats not great but its still better than him just headbutting them until their head explodes.

Defending the worst KK is embarassing. Reptile whether you like him or not is at least a legacy character who brings diversity with his moveset and race. Jax lite is boring and she should've been deleted with her boyfriend.

>crying about irrelevant things like women's fashion
Jade and Skarlets outfits are pretty lame and uninspired but my biggest issues are with stuff like Johnny wear a shitty pair of Ray-Bans or Sub-Zero's Hat.

explain this, i am retarded

Reminder Kringeoid Kuckoldfags were okay with big boobs in MK until Boon told them they couldn't and now are trying to pretend they're better than that by loving cringe ultraviolence

Why are Sonya and especially Cassie the only attractive females in the game? Is it because they're white?

She is literally the least attractive female we've seen so far.

Before her facelift sure, but afterwards I think she looks better than the rest of the goblina women, despite being a granny. There's a huge gap between her an Cassie though.

No even after the facelift she still looks terrible. granted part of it has to do with the fact that she has no muscle definition and she is now suddenly flat as a board.

Jesus Christ do MKcels have the fucking lowest standards in the industry or what?

I disagree. Even if you think she still looks bad after they remade her face, the other girls look worse. Also everyone is a flat now, it's not just Sonya.

have you not seen what she originally looked like in the first trailer?

I dig it. I hope he gets porn

People are absolutely right to complain about the lack of sexy women in revealing outfits in this game, stop being an apologist for secular puritans.

I could care less about the faces. My problem has always been that the women are dressed to the neck. I also hate the sci fi armor and drone shit.

Give me a side by side comparison of her from the initial reveal and now. Because honestly I see no difference.

>Also everyone is a flat now, it's not just Sonya.
And that is bullcrap. Not saying they need to have massive fake looking Double D tits but being barley a B cup is unacceptable for every female character.

Why does Cassie sound even more immature? not a complaint. Just seems off I wonder how white Jacqui is going to sound.

Or, hear me out. Maybe they have different beliefs on what is sexy, and that each character is getting SIX costumes?

We don`t post this anymore, user. Delete, pls.

>I honestly see no difference
Then you should take another look. They straight up gave her botox shots.
>And that is bullcrap
Not arguing against that, just pointing out that's it's a thing in all the female characters, not just one.

And is this six costumes going to be available from the launch and be actual costumes and not color pallets or are you talking about DLC bullshit?

>So you need to respect THEIR opinions but they get to call people who want sexier outfits sexist creep assholes?
No NRS dev has done this, and the one tweet everyone references (Pic related) was completely justified.

If it was colors, there's already more than 6. It's 6 uniques with various colors. It was shown as much in leaks with Noob's reveal. I'll post that whenever the cooldown ends

Wasn't it confirmed that "Skins" included the color variations?

Sometimes the Johnny action figure that Johnny plays with in his winpose has Cassie's name written on the foot in kid handwriting. Just a cute easter egg showing that she played with action figures of her dad as a kid. And the cup thing is from one of Cassie's intros where she's drinking from a coffee cup from some made up coffee joint. The cup has her name spelled with a K first and crossed out with her name written correctly under the crossed out Kassie.

its the bangs. also the color in general is just fucking bad. give her bright red hair like she had in MK9 and it would improve her design by a significant margin.

hispanic girl

I still think Kano should've done a Fatal Blow in the trailer

her hair at the reveal was the best she's ever had imo. Bright red is dumb and doesn't fit the look of the character or the way humans look in this game in general. Short hair suited her personality and also looks best in the engine they're using.

I hope those bitches who complained about her short hair is happy now.

>doesn't fit the look of the character or the way humans look in this game in general
First, her character is that of a blood leeching vampire golem women. And Second, she isn't human. She is a the opposite of Ermac. One is the physical form of a being made up of numerous souls fused together, the other is the same only with blood.

i can't get over how bad Sonya's voice is, why did they fall for the ronda meme

Yeah I don't get how they listened to what she gave them and decided "yeah that sounds good. not stilted and awkward at all."

I don't think that's the case with this Skarlet lore-wise any more. She's more like a blood mage who was taught by Shao Kahn (as of I think the comics and now the main games too). Also I meant human as in LOOKS. She looks exactly like a person, so I stand by my original point

Based ebony girl anons

Fuck Cassie. Is my waifu Kitana in the game?

>I don't think that's the case with this Skarlet lore-wise any more.
Dude she was a creation of MK9. That is very much a part of the current lore.

That's probably the best they could get out of her. WB probably wanted some sort of "celebrity" to advertise the game and show off the facial capture tech but they obviously made a bad choice.

I know that. In the intro dialogue from mk11 she talks about being taught blood magic and some of the devs have talked about her being redesigned as a mage sort of character rather than a construct. The lore was just changed, it happens.

Yeah but we've only seen her briefly in her revenant costume. It's okay looking but that skull hat is pretty dumb.

Attached: MK11 Revenant Kitana and Liu Kang.png (1024x768, 689K)

You know, it seems like almost nobody gets fired from NRS. They seem like a truly homegrown developer. I think that should be appreciated, regardless of whether or not you like certain things they do

>WB probably wanted some sort of "celebrity" to advertise the game and show off the facial capture tech but they obviously made a bad choice.
Then they should have gotten Terry Crews to play Jax.

>The lore was just changed, it happens.
Yeah, I get that. Thing is its dumb and they shouldn't do it after 2 games. Maybe when the reboot the series in another 15 years but for now lets at least, they should try to keep their current lore straight.

that's a pretty dope costume considering we can probably take the hat and/or mask off or change them to something else

They probably didn't think too much about her in MK9.

So it seems that Netherrealm Studios decided to use time travel to finally revert that dumb "Sindel kills 90% of the cast for no reason" plot point in MK9? Ergo, the most hated story idea in the rebooted franchise?
Good for them.

That is nice. It's rare to have a developer that stays consistent in regards to it's employees. For most like say Bioware you have to refer to a specific era when talking about if you like them and their games. For better or for worse NRS is always just NRS.

Attached: Boon Creates Perfection.jpg (502x497, 46K)

You can appreciate it, but that doesn't mean you have to like or accept changes you don't like in a game series you've put time and money into. And you are well within your rights to make you dissatisfaction known to the people making the product you would like to buy.

They lost Tobais though.

>For better or for worse NRS is always just NRS.
Which is only like a 9 year old company, but sure.

yeah she was an afterthought dlc with a tiny amount of lore. Shawn Kittelson changed her to her current lore-status in the mkx comics and he's the writer for this game. He put a lot more thought into her than nrs did initially, in fact, I think she wouldn't have even been in mk11 if he didn't do such a good job of reimagining her into a character that can actually hold her own in the overall lore of the world.

>Thing is its dumb and they shouldn't do it after 2 games.

Yeah but Skarlet was barely a character in MK9. She was DLC so she wasn't in the story or anything and we didn't have fight intros back then so she didn't have any dialogue. They just decided to pull an Ermac with her by making an old rumor a reality but all we got in regards to lore was from her bio and ending. MK11 is really the first time she's a canon part of the story.

no lol, did you look at nothing?

Well yeah but they still brought on a lot of people from the Midway days when they came to WB. There's a lot of older dudes on the team and the behind the scenes videos have folks besides just Boon talking about working on MK back in the day.

Her as a blood leeching assassin is much more interesting than yet another evil sorcerer character.

This is sort of true. I thought Skarlet was cool in MK9 but in regards to her lore she was basically just Ermac if you replaced souls with blood.

Attached: Skarlet Blades.jpg (1336x1600, 156K)

Tobias left on his own

Im surprised tbey dumped Takeda

NRS as NRS is 9 years old. but the core of that NRS has its roots in Midway from the development of MK1 in 91-92

she still is that you dumb, she's just not a mindless construct anymore.

Does anybody care for Takeda, anyway?

She never was a mindless construct though. No more than Ermac was at least.

Just give me her UMK3/MK9 costume and I'll be happy.

Having said that, I wonder what they plan to do with Scorpion this time around.
Is he a human? Wraith? Both?

Like many of the new characters I liked them in the comics but the game kinda squandered their potential.

Fixed the haircut and got rid of Anthony Burch's sister for the lady who voiced Celica. I wouldn't mind Burch voicing but why the change? At least the new actress is also good and not a downgrade like Sonya. Ronda can not act to save her life.

He's human but can summon Scorpion at will. It was explained in the comics when he killed Havic.

Right.
Reptile is not in this game.
What the fuck NRS? I know that they have no idea what to do with him story-wise, but keep him in the roster at least.

Mokap is definately going to be a skin for johnny's stunt double

Isn't he part of the cast that's always just generic henchmen dudes like Kano, Baraka and probably Erron?

Nah pretty much everyone who has touched this says the game is pretty slow. I mean at this point we've had the reveal event, lots of footage and the most recent event. I think it is pretty safe to say the game is going to be on the slower side and played mostly at the mid range. Even just looking at a lot of strings they leave you at a pretty far range, and with no way to get in quick that means being reset to neutral a lot.

Which isn't something I mind if they can make it interesting, but I could see a lot of long time MK players not being thrilled. They really should make projectiles clash though if that is the style they are going for.

Yeah, that's why they have no idea what to do with him.
At least in previous continuity they tried to paint him as this tragic antivillain, with his people being dead or some shit.
Now he's just a random goon no. 27.

>no ice klones because of FGC faggots
I hate them so much.

Tom Brady is the most based human being alive, you can't dissuade me

fringe/bangs can look great, but on Skarlet it's terrible, it's way too short

That's not why there's no Ice Clone. There's no ice Clone because they'd have to give everyone easily accessible armor

>the hair is the only problem she's ever had
>not the ugly manjaw fatface
Reminder nrs has improved every shown female face so far (even kronika's) except for skarlet. She will remain to be the token ugly LGBTQ character.

NRS didn't bend the knee. They're always doing the same thing, at first their characters are super ugly and then they correct them.
People were saying that it will be like this since the first images and the first retarded shitposters started complaining.

When you see posts like that it is usually one really angry fan who spams the threads. I swear people have got way more obvious with doing that lately

Granted, Skarlet does look like a token tumblr user, especially with that makeup and hairstyle. You'd expect her to start screeching about wage gap any minute now.

It wasn't even a task to improve her. The fringe and sides don't even look like they separate models, they don't look connect and are different colours.

Did not stop nrs to change her looks. You ugly fetish fags still have skarlet left, because nrs did not change anything on her gross face.

definitely a work in progress or maybe she'll have different hair option with each new outfit

The Russian Oufit has different hair too

Is that an official MK 11 model?

It's this stupid hairstyle and derpy face that ruin it for me.

If I don't like the art direction of a game I won't even consider its gameplay, which looks like a downgrade from X and too much like Injustice 2.

I just want my cute Kitana. That's all I ask.

Is left hair still in the game?

The pixie cut is apparently gone so I wouldn't be so sure. I don't get why customisation works this way, like why not let me have the Russian outfit hat and hair with other costumes? Instead you just pick costumes and then 3 items. Seems like a step back from injustice 2.

No that is an old edit from back around the reveal event.

A better version of Kano's line in the opening dialogue would have been, "If I needed three strikes to kill a child, I'd quit this business," or something to that effect.

Nice, now they need to fix the rest of the women.

nah max makes a good point about the combo system being way too barebone
he was pleased by that kano's combo tyler showed on stream
I can relate : seeing a constant 4 hit combo and then watching the opponent fly to the other end of the screen is not amusing

She's just a small girl.

Skarlet is probably the biggest offender in the game, she just looks absolutely awful, idk how they managed to make Cassie pretty and fail with skarlet.

I like noob, but the rest either feel too busy or too plain. Skarlets second costume is the closest to hitting a nice medium. Jade's second one is close as well but especially with the mask looks kinda like a cosplay. Something about that fabric

I will give the game that the fidelity of the graphics is incredible. It is the best looking fighting game in that sense.

How many people have explained to you that when people say the designs remind them of burkas, they are not saying the characters are in a literal burkas? Are you special needs? You dropped the ITS A NINJA HAT for ITS A DESERT HAT but don't seem to get the whole point still

why does the release have to be so far away bros yet so close that i fear Mileena's reveal won't happen

we all can't be fags like you OP.

The designs don't really say much either. Like say you know nothing about Kitana, you couldn't figure out her play style from . A lot of them come off like they were designed with a story scenario in mind first, which could explain why a lot of the alternative outfits are way better.

So what changed anyway from MKX? Mechanically I mean

Blue guy is apparently The Kollector

>Shao Kahn is in the plot
>still have to pay for him as DLC
NRS are EA tier scum.

Why do I have a sneaking suspiction that this fabulous dude on the left IS Shao Kahn?
If they managed to turn Skarlet into a tumblr queen...

really scummy rip character that was made day one only just sell later as preorder extra

>Skarlets second costume is the closest to hitting a nice medium.
Both her outfits annoy me. She absorbs blood through her skin and stabs herself, most notable in the abdomen, to preform certain abilities. That's why I never mind her old look, fabric I thought would just get in the way. So seeing her all covered up baffles me. The desert raider look, besides being the most covered, has her abdomen wrapped in leather straps. There's the version with boob window but that's not where she stabs herself. The other one has what looks like heaver fabric over the abdomen and weird hole just below the breast. Again, not even the place where she stabs herself, and these needles slits showing skin. I hope the other 4 costumes rectify this, Ab windows or just a two piece outfit that shows her midriff.

you could say the same about tanya in mkx
point being you could put a character in the story, but with just a cheap model and a limited moveset

>ab windows
my dick would like this very much

>Jade's second one is close as well but especially with the mask looks kinda like a cosplay. Something about that fabric
For me, both costumes comment the sin of covering up too much of her most defining feature, imo, which is her dark skin. Her past costumes had the green pop because of her dark complexion, they also had a nice balance, a symmetry, of cloth and skin that made her look unique and stand out more. The middle costume in this pic, I think is the best because of its symmetry of cloth and skin. The new ones I feel are off balance because of how they cover too much or show too much in certain areas.

See, it can multi purpose feature of the costume.

my dick

Out of the 5 what would you pick?

notice all the male nipples in this game

I SAID NOTICE!

MK9 one, obviously. Although the pigtails/bangs combo is cute as fuck.

It is Shao Kahn but it's not like that's his only costume.

The fact that Skarlet is still ugly is hilarious to me because of all the retarded shitposting behind her for months

Wait, this drag queen straight from Pride Parade is Shao Kahn? I knew that his outfit was always a bit... weird, but Jesus fucking Christ.

Is the art director gay?

you know the rules

Here an example
I think with this costume for it to be balanced it just needs to lose the pants and make them thigh highs. Not as high as her other costume, but just above the knee to show more of her skin to break up the color of the costume and give balance to he skin to cloth symmetry.

There was an edit of this costume which edited what described and turned out pretty well. It was on a previous thread but I can't remember what it was called.

All of them except 4

Will it have cross play?
I kind of want it on PC but it will be dead probably..

A fine choice.

For me its the Shaolin Monk costume, followed by MK9, then a tie between MK3 and MKD.

Could you imagine these costume on the new model?

Her deception outfit?

Somehow Jade was always sexier than Kitana. Dunno why. I guess it's the dark skin/green outfit combination.

>Make shit new costumes.
>Have to insert time travel just so you can include classic costumes.

what did they mean by this?

Unfortunately it will only stay in ones imagination. Cause the chances of NR ever putting those old costumes in the game is 0. Doubt there ever going to be any mods for this game too.

>dark skin/green outfit combination.
Very much so yes.

Maybe for the guys but really much for the girls.

this is one of her round winning poses

>He put a lot more thought into her than nrs did initially
>you write more stuff therefore it has more thought therefore it's better
Go ahead, write me an essay about 20 years of life of a strong independent woman; people will still prefer the sexually attractive and near naked Skarlet.

they still managed to fuck up the classic costumes, its just funny that they are always trying to go back to them without doing so.

Skarlet was comparetively tame next to Jade/Kitana in MK9. How the fuck did their clothing manage not to fall off is beyond me.
Not that I'm compaining mind you. I spent a lot of hours with Jade learning her moveset, let's say. She had some very impressive moveset.

whats wrong with showing male nipples?

lol only gay incels care about gameplay

Ah yes, so much thought was put into this. Like how Jax, Kung Lao, and Kenshi, just simultaneously and coincidentally impregnated women before MK9. Conveniently as well since two of them would be fucking dead after the tournament; because MKX needs characters.

What a well thought out lore. Not like the incel lore of Shao Khan creating women for his pleasure with his Conan-the-Barbarian-style magic and physical idealism; what would be really gross.

>battle bikini ninja made with left over assets and barebones lore is good because it makes my peepee hard

>because MKX needs characters
So why the fuck did they kill off 80% of the perfectly fine main roster for no fucking reason in MK9?

Hey, do you know how Noob Saibot and Ermac came to be?

>peepee hard
Ah, was wondering when this was getting tossed in this thread.

>reeee stop liking sex
Oh of course 50 issue band comic series that sells as much as Miss Marvel was the epitome of lore and thought.

Let's not forget that people like things because they look cool, because they sound cool, because they are cool to think about; not because some faggot writer spent fucking time sitting on a table. This is essentially the cost-of-production value fallacy only creatively.

Baraka was just some guy in a mask, Liu Kang was just a random asian fitness guy wearing pants, all of the MK characters we love were just makeshift costumes and we love them more than any new version or redesign.

Ask anyone which they think looks better, this:

Would you rather have Goro and Darkseid where they didn't even exist in the story mode?

Because her old hairstyle was dumber. You can only go up from a pixie cut

Kano never dies even though he always jobs. I think one of the zombie henchmen(not Liu Kang and Kitana) will die again.

Playable character onry unless you mean Jade or something

Now she looks like Kelly Sue Deconnick.
That's not an improvement.

For fucks sake NRS, stop abusing poor Jade and Kitana.
Jade especially is given such a sucky treatment in MK9, you'd think the writers hate her personally.

Did they explain the change in costume in the comics?I mean she went from looking like this to wearing a for full body suit.

Reptile when

Attached: Screen Shot 2019-03-07 at 12.30.18.png (759x570, 282K)

Jade got a playable chapter in MK9. She's not Reptile or Baraka

Darkseid for guest character.

There was something about microagressions and rape culture in the Outworld.
Honestly no, I don't think so. She just randomly decided to put on a burka.

Naw, it was more of a cat suit than anything else in the comics. An odd choice since her deal was absorbing blood through her skin and stabbing herself to preform her powers. Full body suit seem to get in the way of that. Guess the writers back even then thought her old look was problematic. Oh well, thanks anyway though.

Am I the only one who hates the visual design for characters in this game?

It's not the women all being covered up, it's that all the costumes are this pesudo-futuristic shit with like spandex and plasticy armor pieces and ornate, spikey gold trim and shit

It looks fine on Geras/Cronica because it sorts of fits a time-god aeshetic, but why is it oin all the other characters?

>Am I the only one who hates the visual design for characters in this game?
Half the thread is about it so obviously not.

>pesudo-futuristic shit with like spandex and plasticy armor pieces and ornate, spikey gold trim and shit
It is a bad mix of Injustice and other western design trends. On the first kombat kast 16-genders mentioned how he liked the more sci-fi elements on MK, and I wonder if that is an opinion that permeates through the team to whoever the designers are. I know a lot of MK fans are about the kung fu movie and mysticism aspects which just don't feel as strong here. Which is a shame cause some of the better looking characters here play into that style more. I really wish MK would just stick to its guns instead of following trends. The series constantly wants to remind you of the old fun stuff but doesn't really want to recreate it fully. But then you look at Johnny, goofy as you could make him to pretty much universal praise.

Tell me about it, Skarlet looks like a feminist hiding all the skin she can when her powers come from her bodies. I'm not asking for girls in a bikini but they are overdoing it

>problematic
This is what kills me.
It's fucking Mortal Kombat. It's the last franchise in the world that should give a shit about being "problematic". And "realistic".
You want your blood, tits and gore - that's a game for you. Even MK9 understood that.

Can't wait to draw porn of Kano!

Why does Boon hate cyborgs now?

So how the fuck is Kollector going to play?

Really just looks like Mortal Kombat 10.5. A complete resounding "meh". The game has unironically no soul

Dante is the guest

nobody knows how brand new character turns out

Attached: 1527637117048.png (1024x1681, 1.75M)

Right but what makes it even harder is trying to guess his gimmick. All we have to go off of is a name and the fact that he has 4 arms

>Using fanart
>Especially just comparing it to a face
Skarlets actual model in 9 was basically anorexic & had such a pancake ass it wasn't even funny. The only thing that helped was that she has a mask on her mouth, which helped all the ninja females in 9 anyway because they had an ugly mug underneath.

I don't see it, unless you're trying to compare hair color, but go off then.

>Austin Aries

JUST

Do you mean for yourself, or the MK community? Cuz those dudes have been wanting Mileena to eat their dicks since she was a character.

More people care about him than Jacqui

Its trying to be an esports thing. Can't market to the mainstream if certain aspects of the game is unacceptable in current society or at least the west.

We can't have sexy women, but we CAN have men pissing on the floor!

youtu.be/OwGSU5o1Vzw?t=165

Fuck this shit. Getting DOA 6 AND the season pass as we speak, and canceling my preorder for Sharia Lawbat.

So tits are unacceptable but Kano pissing on the floor is?

youtu.be/OwGSU5o1Vzw?t=165

this game is for cuckolds

Kano and Johnny have the best costume in the game cause its not some variation of power armor or oriented armor. Just fun looking costumes that pop and are eye catching.

Yes. That's western standards. DoA, over price shit aside, gets shit for their finer taste in costumes for their female characters from the "gaming press". Bad press is not what you want if you're trying to make money

ITS OVER JAREK

so which horror movie character will be DLC this time? my vote is micheal myers

the thing

they should know that also Bad PR and Audience backlash are a thing that can affect them too.

tits aside, theres no way in hell every single gamer will buy this game for its overall gore and violence

What WBG is doing (cuz its clear that Pissing was NRS idea), is fruitlessly trying to appeal to every demographic, alienating the actual loyal fanbase that will buy the game no matter what.

tldr: WBG ARE RETARDS!

Pennywise.

>Scary eldritch clown
>IT 2017 was extremely popular
>IT2 will be released this year, so we have promotion there.

tho hopefully we get to have Curry's pennywise as an alternate skin/premium shader or whatever they call them this game.

Probably Pennywise. Maybe Michael Myers.

Pennywise sounds like a safe bet
but if they want to branch out and do non-horror characters then I'm hoping for Rorschach
since I really wanted him in IJ2
fuck

There two Sonya, one is the present old general, the other is Sonya from MK1 timeline, she 25 years younger. You can choose old or young version od many character like Sonya, Cage or Liu.

They are only "unacceptable" to a very small margin of people.
Overwhelming majority doesn't give a flying fuck about sexy women and other feminist bullshit.
Even so - pretty women are verboten, but ripping someone's face off is fine? What sort of logic is that? I never understood American mentality.
