MK 11 vs MK X

I agree, but she looks good with the mask on.

hi r/kappa, still seething i see

This gay man makes me smile, it's not a smile of joy, it's more a smile of "holy shit".

Redpilled. MK9 was the last good one.

They all look like overdesigned shit, look at the classic simple design and to the nu mk design. Just throw armpads, kneepads and armor everywhere bro.

Yeah, most of these nu mk faggots never even played the old games or the 3d era games. And yet they claim to be fans of the series, mk9 was the perfect tribute to the original arcade and snes games

If anything else, it was the last TRUE one to the franchise's origins. It's because it was a reboot of course, but still.

And when 12 comes out 11 will look like a godsend, fucking kill me now or just nuke California already.

I mean, that's probably because it was just a retelling of 1-3 with a bunch of events altered because of Raiden's idiocy.

Of course, but the designs peaked already in the first games, they're creatively bankrupt since the 3d era with shit like Hsu Hao, mokap, bo rai cho etc. Mk x proved this again, the kombat kids are literally recycled characters, dvorah is the monster thing, the big dude with the little girl literaly reuses banes moves from injustice and there's also the character with a bow and arrow of course, peak design. The most creative thing in X is Kotal Kahn because he takes inspirations from native american deities and people

How could it get any worse?

mkx and mk11 both have good designs but the problem is you can tell which designs were forced to fit their new Anita Sarkeesian standard

no self respecting man should buy this game after they admitted to it

There's still a little bit of skin that needs to be covered in that pic. I say there's still room for improvement and realism.

The character designs in MKX were good though
It's the best a lot of the characters have ever looked, Scorpion and Kitana in particular.

Just look at the archives, all the pics of mk9 alternate costumes and skarlet are made by the same faggot, even the filenames are the same

>successfully reboot franchise by going back in time and killing half the cast even earlier

That's clearly an edit you retard, I can't believe you fell for that.

The face scan models are already a graphical upgrade from the old MK, the characters personalities feel better than ever, but fuck the boring ass fatal blows, a bit too much Injustice to MK, no babalities/frienships as funny alternatives to fatalities, and fuck that "gore good,nudity bad" hypocresy. Overall, Mk11 feels like a mixed bag. Also I have worries how much they gonna be fair with the char customization At least I hope it has a story of equal quality as MK9 had. I will buy it once the Komplete edition comes out.

The thing I'm wondering very curious about, is if Boon still makes the creative decisions in NRS. Can't believe this is the same guy that offered us pic related.

Ed Coon is responsible for this. He hates most of the characters. He thinks he is some sort of genius designer because he made color swaps in snes games, the most unique characters came in mk2 and 3

Obviously Tobias has always been the real soul behind MK.

They killed shujinko in Cassie cage ending of mkx so theres also that. He could have saved us

I think he's more of pr guy right now(just like Ono is for Street Fighter), the games doesn't have his "signature" anymore, and the 3D era games are really shit but they have soul and passion put into it, MK 11 is pure soulless from the start to finish.

None of those tower endings are canon... at least that is what they said.

Mileena is the most interesting female personality-wise in the series followed by Jade and Cassie in any order. And with Cassie it's because she is almost a female Johnny Cage. And Johnny is forever awesome.

>Character designs that do not show skin are bad!

Can any of you point out a single design element in MK11 outfits that is objectively bad, from a design standpoint? In fact, does anyone here even have the required qualifications to discern what is and isn't good or bad design, objectively?

>edenia is now just china
You do know Jade and Tanya are also from Edenia, right?

As much as I hate this world, for the negative connotations that it has gained today in many western vidya, the MKX's Mileena lips/face is more realistic than before. How could she even be able to talk when her mouth looks worse than a shark's? She is a hybrid, not a full Tarkatan. She looks dangerous enough in MKX with that mouth of hers. MK9 and prior's mouths look very silly.

All the male characters have good design I would say, only females who have bad designs are jaqui and frost, but jaqui has always been shit so idk and frost might have a better alt because her default seems story related

This desu. MK9 did a good job of remastering the trashiness though.

cant wait to see them make DLC Tanya into a phillip just because

Sonya had a terrible design in mk9

now they're all asian except for jade

I know she wouldn't be able to speak, I dont really have solid arguement for it. I just preferr her with her fucked up mouth. The franchise (up until now anyway) always had a bunch of pretty girls. I liked that one of them looked like a monster

Heels don't make them insecure like breasts or notable skin do, so they are considered practical.

Everything about Skarlet's outfit. It just looks like an ugly mess. It also has weird boob-plates of sorts to emphasize how small her chest is, like they wanted to make sure people knew she was a chestlet.

But yeah, I can turn that around and say designs that do not show skin are not necessarily good either. Just compare what Sub-Zero and Scorpion are wearing compared to Frost's power ranger's suit, despite the fact that she should be dressed similar to them. Or how they have this "FIGHTERS WOULDN'T SHOW SO MUCH SKIN" stance while most of the men show quite a lot.

Unless you are so much into leotards.

They'd never lighten Tanya's skin, fans would riot and so would SJW's because of "whitewashing".

Kinda worked from a story standpoint. Mileena hated her new. It was hinted she used magic to try to fix her mouth

The people you are defending would probably throw a fit if Kitana looked like that today.

They were my favorite designs for most of the characters, never understood why people hated it, although people hate everything all the time

I don't think Frost should wear thje same thing considering she's apart of the Cyber Initiative. Cyber ninjas are more bulky looking.

Nigger if you wouldn't ravage Mileena with the force of a freight train you are genuinely homosexual.

Kotal's from Osh-Tekk you tard.

There's no definite look for a kunoichi, and a lot of those that do exist are very mundane, pretty much identical designs to what a male ninja would look like.

Skarlet has more embellishments on her attire because I suspect that if they went with something like pic related, people would call it boring.

Maybe idk, I just used that as an example for how he fits in outworld a better example might be Jarrod but who cares about that nigga

I'mma break this down for all of you. People like the more and tits in Mortal Kombat because Mortal Kombat is not a good fighting game. people were pissed when they tried to say DoA isn't gonna have bouncy tits because DoA isn't a good fighting game. Without tits and gore Mortal Kombat has nothing.

Can't we just ALL agree that NRS can't design attractive 3D girls for shit, SJW-pandering or not? Every good looking, curvy and sexy image of a female in this thread comes from 2D fanarts.

Something like this is only appropriate in very cold weather. Bitch would be drenched in sweat in a temperate environment.

But she at least still fit with her previous designs. Now she looks totally different.

>let me just toss on a bunch of retarded pieces of cloth for no reason
a good bit of this. When the hell did everyone get so bad with character design, you dont just slap shit on there i hope it sticks. Everything seen should be essiantial to the character. Everything should aid in the visual story of who they are. If its not essential dont have it.

Then how about Jade?

How can you guys played a game where woman are nothing more the mere sex objects?

Does somebody unironically like Frost new design? She is the epitome of the bad design choices this game has. It's something you would see in a 3dgraphics card box art or with a 3d modeling students putting to much shit in the design to show off his skills, it lacking of personality.

So what visual story does wearing a spandex leotard convey?

Injustice 2 wonderwoman isnt that bad, but I agree it’s stupid people keep saying the old designs were sexy when the characters looked like shit

This guy gets it

>3DPD

gross

A kunoichi historically was a female ninja who didn't specialize in combat in the first place, but in espionage and whoring herself to put targets in her honeypot. Attractiveness, as you can imagine, was a must for this kind of job.

How's that for realism.

Attached: 776ac56a8a7aac3169538e2cce87ca9a.jpg (658x879, 46K)

What about her?

there is nothing wrong with the draping here, at least it provides a fairly unique look for the bust area. She could lose the cape perhaps.

The trailer shows her working for kronika and her design fits their aesthetic, I assume she has a more fitting alt

They have great concept artists but their modellers are utter shit

We talking about the muslim?

And it's just very convenient that she is covered head to toe in something that obscures every inch of her figure.

The big thing here is comparing the female designs to the males. That's when it becomes very obvious what they are trying to do.

>And it's just very convenient that she is covered head to toe in something that obscures every inch of her figure.
what would be revealing that cyborg wear that wouldn't expose wires or some shit?

Kotal is from a jungle world that shao khan conquered and merged with his, same reason kitana and other people from her realm look so different, outworld is a melting pot of other cultures

Or fucking hair

Because he wears the garb of his people. Liu Kang covers up when going

Attached: kunglao-liukang-mk11-screenshot.png (1247x624, 1.01M)

Because they could have just designed her similar to how she has always been? Again, it feels like they were just looking for reasons to cover up the women and/or make their bodies more 'realistic'.

>literally "it's okay when japan does this"
You dumb motherfuckers can't even admit you're just angry at a potential SJW pandering, not the actual designs. Not that you have any fucking taste what so ever to understand anything about it

To add on to that he actually is the last surviving member of his race so he wears their clothing as a remembrance

So why does Skarlet suddenly decide to cover herself head to toe if no one actually needs to apparently?

Shirt kang> shirt less

Alas, concept/fanart/cinematics will 90% of the time look better than the 3D in-game product.

Maybe so but are you saying their can't be any cyborg females simply because they wouldn't be able to show skin? even Cyrax only showed his face and arms

If they were realistic like you described the sure as fuck wouldn’t were skimpy ninja outfits like in your picture so that argument is stupid too

Take your meds.

fighting game characters need to be appealing
like 80% of the roster is not appealing at all desu

so then we should just remove all the women for the game so that it falls in line with your standard of realism, mkuck

Because she has since the comic. Her mk9 outfit was trash that looked they made her in hurry and covered up their laziness in the lore

Kunoichi were literally prostitutes and shit. Spin this however you want, a kunoichi is supposed to be disarmingly beautiful and not mundane looking at all. They dont dress like ninjas, they dress like sluts or pretty themselves up so their targets dont suspect them of being anything more than a yes-girl and walking onahole. If they dont want the aesthetic, make new characters using the theme they want to hit. Dont shit up already existing concepts because that's the easy thing to do. Redesigns in each game are stupid and a waste of resources at the end of the day, just update the previous costumes core features(what they used to do for the most part) as your tech develops. They've thrown themselves into a dangerous corner now where they have to waste money on redesigning every single game now; not like they care since someone else is footing the bills now.

Who says she doesn’t? Kitana is royalty and chills in a palace all day and kotal is wearing ceremonial clothing

Not skimpy ninja outfits, no.
Skimpy/provocative clothes though, you bet.

That's just his story costume, here he is wearing it at the Shaolin Temple.

So you're saying she was never a cyborg before then?

>Maybe so but are you saying their can't be any cyborg females simply because they wouldn't be able to show skin? even Cyrax only showed his face and arms
It's because she was basically a Sub-Zero clone, not a Cyrax clone.

Once again, her design just fits the same patter of de-sexualizing the females. I never even cared much for Frost but you'd be a fool to deny that after their statements of how they don't want women to be sexy.

Mileena didn't in X, Tanya didn't, fucking Rain was literally shirtless with a cape.

Sure but the disparity is especially glaring at NRS

So let me get this straight. You want a female COMBATANT to dress like someone who did not take part in active combat? What sense does that make?

>So you're saying she was never a cyborg before then?
Yes that's what I am saying
>It's because she was basically a Sub-Zero clone, not a Cyrax clone.
I used Cyrax as an example for someone being a cyborg user. They're even apart of the same damn clan

Just show you an example of an Aztec full body suit.

Tanya and rain are edinians of high standing, mileena is royalty and also half demon monster

The female designs for MK11 are a downgrade.

How does that explain why they don't need to wear full desert garb when living in a fucking desert world? Your argument was that Skarlet NEEDS to, yet not a single other person does?

Why would kotal dress up as a jaguar when he can turn into one

And Mileena shows a lot of skin because she is compensating for being insecure about her Tarkatan half. But if she shows up in MK11 as DLC you know damn well she'll be getting a breast reduction and covering at least 80% of her body.

Well thankfully he's from Osh-Tekk. If anything he wears the same thing Ketz wore

I love how they give boob windows to flat women yet Jade is as covered as possible. Funny because her mission is to seduce Kotal. And what the fuck ist that Cassie outfit trash? and what was so wrong with Jacquis design? too erotic?

If she does that will be stupid because it's going against lore and not just boner culture. the most covered up think she should wear is a belly dancer outfit

>I am insecure of what I am, so I show more of myself to the world

Not how insecurity works, pal.

Because they are in palaces most of the time and in mkX when we see them they are in a jungle. Mk11 skarlet is an enemy of the current ruler of outworld and is probably in hiding in a desert

She was a titlet in x already. Her mk9 costume in x looks nothing like it too

Then they shouldn't refer to them as ninjas at all and make up a new word for whatever they are supposed to be and not copy the aesthetics of ninjas in their base designs. If they want to double down on realism, then fucking do it. Otherwise they can get the fuck out of here with their lazy excuses to handwave their own idiocy.

So let me get this straight, NRS created female Kunoichi characters that actually fight and not whore themselves? And they dressed them in sexy leotards, high-heels and skimpy outfits from the beginning?

Now why would they do that user? Could it be because they didn't care about realism in the first place and these were different times back then? While they hypocritically call upon "realism" in this era of censorship and bigotry that we live in?

We know who's idea this was.

Mass effect 4 is looking good

Well they actually could, they could give everyone full bodysuits. But Kotal actually has a reason to wear what he does and I said it after my cheeky post. He wears what his friend Ketz wears out of remembrance

They do. No need to piss on the name of Mortal Kombat though and what it used to represent. Just abort the franchise and start another one with full-covered high-tech ninjas and capeshiters, if you're so out of ideas.

Here, I even pitched them an idea.

Mileena is a slut because of her tarkatan part and because she is mentally young in 9

>Scorpion gets to show more skin than nearly the entire female cast

Wait, so if a woman shows skin is ALWAYS for no reason?

not exactly true

kunoichi really just means female ninja
ninja means anyone who practices ninjutsu, part of which are infiltration and assassination, which in case of a female can obviously come with making use of her suggestive traits, but it's not some requirement to be called a kunoichi

And change isn't always good or warranted as nu-MK shows in its design philosophy counteracting against its roots in the most jarring manner possible

>she is mentally young in 9
Mentally retarded more like it GOT'EM

why did they make scorpion black

t. underage that doesnt know they used the term ninja since day 1
stay on retard era

>his friend Ketz
>friend
These are the people that defend nu-NRS.

>Males fanservice is justified
t. tranny

Yeah, that's the clinical definition i believe

That's an excuse, for NT to have most of his male cast look like idealized skimpy beefcakes.

Boon has nothing to do with creative decisions anymore. Why do you think he looks so fucking miserable whenever he makes appearances

Said ain't it
No? Mileena showing skin is for lore and emotional purposes. That's a character that needs to stay lewd, Johnny is a show-off so it makes sense for his to show off his body as well.

Too bad you are not in charge of NRS, nor are the views you hold nowhere near the views of the majority of those buying NRS games.

The vast majority of people who buy NRS games do it because they like the way they play. The attractiveness of female (or male) characters is a distant consideration to them. The arguments seen in threads like this do not even happen outside this site and a select few others.

OH NO NO NO

Nu Jacqui is a huge step up from miss copy that

True. However, if kunoichis mostly did this job, isn't it only natural to be imagined that way in the first place? That's what they were most useful for, realistically.

When you murder a nigga for the throne then it turns out everyone else besides you get murdered you can consider him your friend

So why do they keep trying to default dressing them up like shitty ninjas then? you're clinging to in-lore vs external design elements you dip

injustass ruined mk desu

MK devs are cultural brainlets

they never even know what the fuck a ninja is other than "asian masked warrior". It took them multiple games before they realized that chinese characters are not supposed to be ninjas, and settled with the canon that only Scorpion is a ninja and the others just look like that because of reasons

it's too late now though, and everyone just sees 2/3 of the MK cast as palette swap/robot/female ninjas

Oh Steve...

Tanya was literally the only one exempt from the Ninja title because she was just flat out called a spy and femme fatale because boon watched bond a bunch and wanted a niggress to replace Jade and a new evil bitch. Man, MK4 was weird when you start looking back at it now.

You know what? Not even going to explain what you're wrong about, just going to laugh as you dig your lorelet ass into a deeper hole.

Man the outfit in the right is fucking suffocating. On top of that they have less muscles and they are still wearing heels, what the hell

Aside from the obvious SEXY WOMEN IN GAMES BAD, why can't we just find a middle ground when it comes to skimpy outfits? MK9 was too much, and made the characters look like MTF trannies with really bad boob jobs, and MK11 takes away all their tits, even Jacqui's got nerfed. MKX was a good medium, but maybe edge just a little bit towards 9, and then you'll be perfect

You seem quite happy with the decisions about increased censorship that they make in the last 2 games? How's so?

Why do fags and women sit like that? Do they have this technique where they don't crush whatever they have between their legs, cuz that seems painful

But they don’t dress like ninjas

aight

MKX was the fastest and best selling entry in the series, and it began the trend of toning down the character designs. Like it or not, people care way less about what characters look like than how they play, and MK11 is going to sell like hotcakes.

It was thanks to the success of MK9. Just like RE5 sold millions thanks to RE4.

Because it has no bearing on the gameplay side of things, which is what matters in a videogame.

mkx sold well at first and mk11 is going to sell but definetly not because of it's gameplay that you claim people enjoy

>people bought Muslim Combat Ecks because it started showing less tiddie
Okay fag

MKX had great character design for the most part. But I think everyone in MK11 is much better, except for the females. The only males that looks worse now are Kotal Khan and Erron Black

What i gather from this thread is that my decision to buy XL instead of 11 is the right one desu.

Abandon everything and just make stick figure characters, that would allow you to focus specifically in the gameplay department. No need to spend time and money with art direction or other unnecessary things like that!

Just like Diablo 3 sold a lot too, wonder how that worked out for the franchise.

>shirtless men are the same as shirtless females

Again, you've deluded yourself

and again, we're having a thread where people care about the amount of skin showing in Mortal Kombat, as if it fucking mattered

How is that Mileena not "realistically proportioned"? Those are just D cups.

Blizzard is currently working on D4. That's how it worked out. Honestly, the much bigger blunder was announcing Diablo Immortal with nothing else to show.

Scorpion has armor plating on his arms and shins, raiden has armor on, shao khan has armor, sub zero has armor.

Nine plays like shit and has ugly character models, why would you recommend that to anyone is beyond me

Most people don't even read games journalism to begin with, and the new outfits don't lean out of the game and chastise you for being a bigot, so you're gonna have to explain to me how normal consumers are going to give a shit

So naked men resists more to fire than women? what?

Well i already ordered XL (it's cheap as fuck these days) but i will try getting 9 too, thanks anons.

You're also delusional, MK9 had so many fucking gameplay flaws its stunning, the best thing that game had was its mobility even that felt jank as fuck.

To be quite frank I'd prefer it if both of you groups drank bleach, if a character designer wants to do something new with an old character, they should perfectly be allowed too. Problem is, everyone's got their nuts in a vice about what they can or can't look like instead of just going "okay Sonya looks like this in this iteration of the game"

Remember gentlemen, no matter how bad sjw censorship gets, there will always be ready and willing whores to pick up and fuck at the nearest bar.

You're lying about the game's qualities and using MK9 as a totem for titties by hiding behind you liking the "game" itself, not just the bolt ons.

Wouldn't taking the male characters into sexualized avenues be making them Jojo men and put them in thongs and stuff? Which they haven't done

Yeah. But tits look retarded if the body doesn't match it. And Sonyas tits looked comical on her frame. I say this as user who loves tits
>inb4 some autismo post the model cosplayers from mk9 promo

You left off where the art direction lead said "We do it for realism" and have the audacity to make such a claim when there are all sorts of inconsistencies with such a claim while also stating they don't care about people who complain about such a thing in any context to it. They're starting to ostrich against people pointing out flaws and that's why it gets brought up.

i'd rather buy a robot or vr than give those whores even a single free drink or a ride home

she is a character with blood powers
her being half naked was actually fitting considering the blood she uses to fight mainly comes out of her body

Sure, but the men aren't being framed like Daddy's and they're not being framed like pretty boys. This is like saying Bowser is sexualized cause he doesn't wear any clothes and has been "daddied" in fan art.

>Which they haven't done
So gays can have their fanservice with daddies Johnny Cage, Kotal and Kano but lesbians cant? isnt that sexist?

Where did I lie you turd? Show me a sentence in my post where I lied. I didn't even mention "titties", you 're only projecting.
Do it faggot. Post it.

The forums are literally fapping with Kano and Kotal designs.

Well I mean you're sort of saying that gays are getting fanservice cause Kano's shirtless, and you could say that lesbians are getting fanservice cause Kitana looks hot in her leotard, that's a weird argument to levy.

And someone can jerk off to D'vorah and Cassie, I'm not sure what the argument there is

that's really boring
the idea of her drawing blood from her own skin to fight with was cool

Doesn't even look like the same character. If she didn't have fans and wear blue you would never think it was Kitana.

I don't see how people can defend these designs with a straight face. At least the NRS shills are paid, albeit probably in pennies.

I like much more when she drunk the blood as well. We don't have a vampire character in MK, since Nitara doesn't seem to return any time soon, why not just keep this trait lorewise?

yeah but here the problem isn't sexiness if you are looking at the quote
"you're not going to be showing so much skin, I think it's just what the game is about: you're going in to fight for your life, and you're not going to be wearing such scantily clad items"
This applies to the men, showing a lot skins and wearing minimal clothing.
If the issue is indeed realism as they assert then the men should be dressed as much as the women. I'm not really bothered by the clothing not being sexy (but they look like overdesigned shit though, seriously Kitana & Frost looks straight out of Injustice), it's the hypocrisy of the devs

But Kitana is flat and women are way more covered. Again: why cant lesbians have their fanservice too?

it actually is, as there are different ways of dealing with insecurity, like delusion,cognitive dissonance, and shoving how "secure you are about something in someone's face like what trannies and fags do in real life and now the media

Pottery

it's actually just women feminists and their whiteknights
I know the tranny boogeyman posting become very popular in these threads lately, but I've yet to see a single tranny activist trying to censor sexual depiction of female characters in gaming

Kitana isn't flat and not all the women are actually in "burhkas" despite your claims otherwise. Despite that, lesbians are still presented fanservice in the same vein as men are whether gay or straight.

>kitana looks like out of Injustice
Her samurai outfit wasn't overdesigned but this simple leotard outfit is?

Again, your argument is based around the quote, "scantily clad". But shirtless men have never really been scantily clad. Showing bare male chests is often not even "showing that much skin" in art design. Let alone the fact that characters have armored outfits like Kung Lao or Liu Kang. Baraka has hardened skin, Geras is a golem who probably doesn't even register pain normally, Kano's got cybernetic insides.

I don't see how revelant the fact that Baraka, Geras and Kano story justify them going barechested to, it's the same kind of logic as Quiet going naked in MGSV.
My main problem with some of MK11 costumes are just full of useless clutter, I don't want the ancient costumes from MK123 back (not as main costumes at least, unlockables would be fine), but comparing it to Kitana costume in MKX I find Kitana outfit quite disapointing

I think Quiet was stupid - obviously a justification of exposed skin.

Geras is on the same power scale as Cetrion or Raiden, and he has outfits that actually cover him up. All of the men except for Baraka does, I think actually. (barring Shao Khan)

Peasants from Edenia and Outworld wore lots of clothes dude. You can literally see them in the background.

Skarlet was literally resurrected from the actual bottom of a discarded character concept barrel. It's not shocking at all they decided to return to the character and redesigned her. She clearly doesn't need her bare skin to function in this game, she requires blood, which she does by slicing her hand with a magic or special dagger.

>madam edgelord
>not falling for the cyber meme
She litterally tried to kill grand master sub zero. No one ever said she was bright

Yes, you're absolutely right.

Because I want equal representation in sexualization. I despise hypocrisy in all it's forms.

I get that but some posters here echo a thought that MK9's character design was good when it was not. It was mediocre

Most people don't remember background characters, so forgive me.

No one would complain if there was a single girl like Mileena visually owning her shit while the rest are buttoned up. Our problem is the stated clear intent to alienate people asking for better diversity in design. Its hypocrisy to the games legacy of being as raunchy and grotesque as it can get within M-rating standards.

It was better than what we have now.

How is the taste of Boon's cock user? You must really like it to be sucking right now.

Since when has shirtless men been sexualization?

I hate nu-NRS so much. I am quite sad with how things became, gay as it might sound. So much untapped potential and they opted for Injustice designs, censorship and a sci-fi theme that has nothing to do with the series' atmosphere. It's a pity.

i dont, i simply dont want political activism, hypocricy, lying, etc. i like lots of designs from all the games. but im not giving money to get indoctrinated into some trannies religion.

I bet you don't even fap to Shao Kahn's rock-hard abs and pecs, you fag.

I'm nostaligic for 9 because it didn't have fucking move variations

They didn't alienate you, you just wish more characters looked like Angel from KoF, which is a fair complaint, but in the grand scheme of things a bit fucking pointless.

>sci fi that has nothing to with the series' atmosphere

Man uh... Have you played a Mortal Kombat game?

Eh i find some of the designs to better but that's subjective like Kabal and Jacqui.But I do agree that some characters like Scorpion look dumb as they have too many things going on on them. Johnny still looks like he's 45 in his young version too.Very much a mixed bag

I just don’t like how variations were implemented, if it let you switch out a variety of moves it would be cool, but doing shit like locking raidens teleport behind a variant is retarded

You know what I mean. The cyborgs were never superpopular. Now we have guns, shotguns, drones, Special Forces everywhere, powersuits and orbital attacks.

I get it for something like supers
Like in Street Fighter IV, but yeah
Things like teleports or projectiles and shit
Bullshit

>Johnny looks 45 in his young variation

wot

>Cyborgs were never superpopular
>entered into the scene with Kano, become solid with Cyrax and Sektor
>stayed in the series from that point onward

Uh huh and oh no, the army faction in the games grew to a still minorty size equal to the Black Dragons, as if that's a bad thing.

Sub Zero's Spine Rip makes a lot of sense now.

Since romance novels were invented I guess.

except Quiet's idea wasn't more overthetop than any other fictional MGS ideas and justification either. In fact it might have been one of the more logical, fitting ideas in the series.

It's literally just that people (you too) lately become much more sensitive towards noticing unrealism/ "forced"-ness when it has to do with sexual content, because of how much exposure this topic is getting. You will realize it much more sooner how unrealistic thus "stupid" and "forced" an idea is if you notice that it's a sexual idea, even if objectively it's completely in tone with the unrealistism of the medium with it's other unrealistic ideas.

That's because sexuality is something that is, traditionally, thought to be a very personal thing. Openly flaunting your sexuality is considered being promiscuous or outright silly/comedic.

Is the variant system the same as it was in X? I heard you could make your own

This.

>Why do people want every character to be a bare-naked or a bikini?
Equality. Unlike Mortal Kombat 11. Pretty hypocritical of you to generalize people want any variety as extremists though

>male completely shirtless with pants low enough to accentuate the pelvis
>the same as Shao Khan having some abs

K

or we could have interesting designs that accentuate different tastes like cowboys to aztec warriors

Only 40 year old women read that shit
Men fighting shirtless has been a thing since forever, and don’t say them being absolutely ripped is sex apeal unless you think gears of war characters were designed to be sexy

>That will be $5.99 plus tip.

Compared to the popularity of established characters like Scorpion, Sub Zero, Liu Kang, Kung Lao, Kitana etc they were much less known.

>the army faction in the games grew to a still minorty size
No it hasn't. The game has grenades, revolvers, booby traps and all these modern shit that didn't exist in that amount neither in the trilogy or in any other game. People in 9 were calling Stryker annoying and broken because he was the only one wth a pistol that could rapid fire. And now 2 games later we're here with Injustice, and sci-fi shit and we should be ok about it.
No.

this, don't forget all the young girls who gasp and gush when seeing The Goose without a shirt

>or we could have interesting designs that accentuate different tastes like cowboys to aztec warriors
So why can't the women have such varying designs as well?

>Men fighting shirtless has been a thing since forever
and women fighting has never been a thing since forever
if it were "realistic" then there wouldn't be any woman champions. It'd all be men.
But when they say "realistic" they mean "politically correct" and by "politically correct" they mean "appeasing to liberal screechers"

>Men fighting shirtless has been a thing since forever
yeah, now compare female MMA fighters and wrestlers to the MK11 outfits
that's the entire point, it's a double standard. their argument was that you don't fight half naked for your life, but the men still do so.

They do and that's exactly what you guys are bitching about.

>They do
They don't, the only difference is what material is being used to cover them head to toe.

>except Quiet's idea wasn't more overthetop than any other fictional MGS ideas and justification either. In fact it might have been one of the more logical, fitting ideas in the series.
They could have her be a parasite monster without making her naked, or make her naked without making her a parasite monster. Look at it with the context of "you will be ashamed of your words and deeds." I have less respect for the character and design (her being a shit character from a shit game aside) because of the justification since it feels very forced. Other parasite monsters aren't nude. There's sexy female parasite troops but they aren't nude like Quiet, which is a forced discrepancy. The MGS1 boss cast is almost all half naked, in Alaska, and they all feel more justified than Quiet. You can't defend your shit excuse for a waifu, Kojima, don't even bother. Nobody likes her. I wouldn't even be so mad if Quiet was either a well-designed character, or a good, well written or interesting character. But she's flat, less than one dimensional, she's one-note and very clearly retarded (she could have at any time written a note in English without activating the voice parasites, which are a shit MGS4 Nanomachines tier forced thing anyway). Seriously, go eat an entire cock.

Women have been fighters in vidya since forever
The female fighters are either military or royalty why would they dress like mma fighters

>guns and grenades and booby traps are crazy in MK

Man unironically go fuck yourself, seriously. The cyborgs have been a fan favorite forever and fact that you're pretending that fucking GUNS showing up in MK is injustice "sci fi shit" means you're literally just standing in the way of design space.

You mean like the arabian warrioress, chinese assassin, bug lady, spec ops officer, cyberpunk warrior, boxer with gun arms? The ones you're fucking whining about?

She looks like a jihadi strapped up with explosives. If that's not exactly the look they were going for, they fucked up.

you've created a delusion to protect your ego. the girls designs are objectively significantly less varied than the males.

hope this helps.

you are exactly just saying that a character acting sexually is silly because noone does this in real life in such situation, thus it's unrealistic

my argument is that most people, you too, became much more sensitive towards noticing how unrealistic and "silly" a sexual content is, even if objectively it's just as unrealistic or "silly" as the other fictional ideas in the game. This is caused by the exposure to the topic

MK11 devs defense towards censorship is a good exmaple for this, since it is something most people would use to defend the changes. They will instantly notice how unrealistic it is if a sexually attractive female warrior dresses lightly for a battle, and will find it stupid.
Meanwhile they are completely tolerant /ignorant to the fact that realistically it is just as stupid for male charactes.
This kind of opinion in people just became stronger and stronger because of the bigger and bigger exposure to this topic.

>Women have been fighters in vidya since forever
who cares about vidya?
We're talking about """"""realism"""""""
Women didn't serve in combat roles throughout history. The only reason even a handful of them fight is as a segregated boutique sport.

The irony is fucking palpable.

literally just read >The MGS1 boss cast is almost all half naked, in Alaska, and they all feel more justified than Quiet
you are just proving my point
you only get triggered by this design being unrelistic because it is sexual, even though it isn't any more stupid or unrealitic than other ideas in the series

that, and you probably also really hate Kojima and want every justification to shittalk him

>The female fighters are either military or royalty why would they dress like mma fighters
same reason why the men do, to give your opponent less to grab onto.
if it was more realistic life and death situation they would be all oiled up as well so nobody can get a hold at all.

need booby mortal kombat boobie

waaaaaaa

WHERE MY BOOBI

you think i actually give a shit about the designs in this shit game? i'm just pointing out facts.
stay delusional amigo.

Eva and Sniper Wolf are very sexually charged and both feel justified and they're good character designs and characters. Suck a cock, waifu apologist.

Yeah but the military characters have scifi plate carriers to avoid being shot/stabbed

Not to the same degree as many other characters you fucking idiot. Do you read English? Did you read about many people missing and wanting back any of the cyborgs before MK11 comparing to the ones pressuring about Mileena, Noob Saibot and Smoke for example?

And I am not saying that only guns are a sign of an Injustice influence. From modern weapons, to sci-fi and capeshit costumes to the new character designs, most people in this thread recognise this alien, for MK standards, influence.

>standing in the way of design space
Don't make me laugh you faggot. What design? Most of them look less interesting than in MKX. And who said that every new design is automatically better and shouldn't be judged. You fucking shill. How much do they pay you?

>There's sexy female parasite troops but they aren't nude like Quiet, which is a forced discrepancy
The other parasite troops and the End still have intact lungs and stomach you retarded troglodyte, play the fucking game.

THis isn't an argument
Like I said, it's forced. It could have been written any other way, she could have died from the fall and been revived by parasites just as an example. Her having no lungs serves quite literally no other purpose. It's a bad excuse to justify a bad character design.

Bro, it's fucking Frost. That is EXACTLY the type of shit she'd jump for if offered.

never said quiet is my waifu or even an important character to me, I just said that her idea was completely fitting to the series and the idea of ll the wacky supernatural designs in the game. Please rethink my previous posts.

Another good example is that if he was a half naked guy instead of a half naked girl then noone would complain about this idea being forced or unrealistic or "silly". You know exactly that you would feel like this too.

>it's forced
Your retardation is forced. Anything could have literally been written any other way, just saying you don't like it doesn't justify your complaints it just makes you look like a crying sperg.

I don't think Johnny acting the way he does is as silly as someone wearing a bikini to battle, even though his demeanor is in sharp contrast with the rest of the setting. I think that there's genuinely something about being half-naked that rubs most people the wrong way, and it has to do with how we view sexuality as a society. Thinking that partial nudity is embarrassing or silly is not a new phenomenon either. Characters losing some or all of their clothes in media is and has been often used as the punchline to a gag of some sort.

Stupid power hungry frost a qt

Not as much as your mother does to write checks to her ass, idea that Scarlet looks less interesting than fucking Kung Jin should be grounds for you to be hung until you're blue. Injustice influence would be characters no longer shedding blood, but if you're going to whine about "capeshit" just recognize that it comes from the original place as all stupid fucking kung fu movies from the 90s, time travel and science fiction gimmicks aside.

again, you are just listing things why you feel sexual content is usually unrealistic

it is completely obvious that it can/will be unrealistic to various degrees in a fictional medium, what you should realize is that you (and people in general) somehow notice how unrealistic thus stupid/forced it is MUCH more than you do with other SIMILARLY unrealistic and stupid ideas.

the reason for this is because this whole topic. People talk more and more about how unrealistic thus "stupid" XY is the more you will notice it.
That's really the reason why even normies who don't care about sjw bullshit start to think more and more about how distasteful sexy designs are, even if objectively they are completely in tone with the unrealism of the fiction.

Openly stating "We're ignoring you lol" to people voicing a complaint and refusing to see a compromise in their argument or even TRY to is alienation you brainlet. Its only pointless to you because you seem to support eating garbage from idea guys who will gladly shovel more on your plate, reaming you up the ass with a barbed dildo while also emptying your wallet. We're above and beyond the era of constraints like this. Limiting your creative ability for goodboy points on a fad hill is beyond fucking stupid. They stand to lose nothing by listening and trying to compromise something, they stand to lose something by ignoring people voicing a genuine complaint. Stop protecting terrible designer practices, it makes you read off like a shill of the highest order

Kano has been in every single entry of the series, and he is basically a cyborg. Then, from the third game onward, they introduced literal robots as mainstay fighters.

Tell me again how the original atmosphere and mythology of the series is ruined by cybernetically enhanced individuals.

They've been here most of the thread, where have you been?

An exoskeleton is not skin, especially since we now know she has green "skin" under it all anyway. She's actually the most covered up

>Dvorah
I still can't believe they thought she was too hot in MKX and made her even uglier

to be honest i don't think she looks bad because she's covered up but rather because the design is overly busy, garish and generally just kinda shit

Once again, good non-argument. You're getting pathetic.

its pointless to me because characters stop being their tits and ass a few hours into gameplay

you could make block fighter with tight gameplay and I'd still play it

So I literally lose and gain nothing from fighting for the right for you weekend warrior fucks to see tits in fighting games

I wonder how long this mental overprotection of women will last

I mean men already have 4 times higher suicide rates and several years shorter lifespan because of stress, but no, it's the women who have to be protected from seeing idealized body types that might cause bad self-esteem.
That and the bullshit vague assumptions that seeing unrealistic/idealized female designs causes disrespect towards women. This shit is literally worse than the "violent video games cause violence" bullshit.

The ironing

You are claiming that people think sexual content is silly because it is in the limelight now, while I am trying to highlight that it has ALWAYS been considered silly. Yes, even back when the original games were released, there were those who found the character designs to be tacky and silly, which was brushed off and accepted as being intentional, the kind of cheese that characterized the 90's.

Now, the series is much grittier and more grounded in reality, so that 90's cheese sticks out like a sore thumb. It has less to do with exposure and more to do with responding to a shift in tone.

Whether or not this is a good thing can be argued, but I feel like you are barking up the wrong tree here when you claim the backlash against the scantily-clad designs is due to repeated exposure.

Why don't you add automatic rifles, orbital bombings, more powersuits, beam cannons and whatever other futuristic shit you can find. Let's make them all cyborgs. And whoever's left, let's dress her in tight leather covering her whole body and give her a lightsaber if she is a female or strip him semi-naked and covered in baby oil if he is a guy.

DOA6 vanilla moved just 25k copies in its first week in Japan in 2019 on the PS4.

And articles afterward said sales have not recovered. I checked recently and DOA6 has sold less and has less active users than SC6.

SC6 has tons of tits and ass, so it seems like you need more than just that to sell a game.
