Ok, I know some of you may flame me for saying this, but it's true. Nightwolf has once again been made useless. Two terrible, ripoff, Fatalities. One is a ripoff of Kung Lao's DA Fatality. The other, is just terrible...

Nightwolf was once again made useless in MK for himself, and for his fans...When you screw up twice with a character, it's time to just give up on him...

I wholeheartidly agree. Nightwolf failed me in MK3, and it looks like he's going to fail me in MK: D. Both of his fatalities have been my least favorite of the game so far. I say we put him away for good with Reiko, Rain, and Stryker.

You haven't played as/against him yet so you can't say anything. Nightwolf is a bomb character!

I hope that when you first play it you go up against Nightwolf and he kicks your ass everytime and does one of these fatalities.

My two cents

i think his new fatality is pretty good. i like the way he catches the head, instead of it just falling to the ground. i hope they cut out some time between when he catches it and when "fatality" comes up, because that really takes away from it.

Wow, I respected you until now.


Anyway, yeah, Nightwolf looks like crap so far. They failed with the same character twice, as I said...

LOL

All I'm saying is that you shouldn't judge him before you play as him. He has Tae Kwon Do and Sonya had that in MKDA and she was bomb.

My bad being too harsh

I think he'll be a decent character in the game. Even though both fatalities involve his Tomahawks, I still think they are pretty good. Nice and to the point. From what I've seen, his special moves seem effective enough, too. To be honest, I believe this game will boost up his popularity. Only time will tell, though.

Wow, Nightwolf is useless because he has two ripoff fatalities. No need to hear about his special moves or techniques. Sorry I couldn't resist. I respect your opinion. Your post suggest if he had a cool original new fatalites your opinion of him would differ. By the way what was the second fatality.

My two cents?

Nightwolf was an extremely good character in MK3, I rarely lose with him. I have always loved him as a chracter along with Stryker, neither of them get any love. Bad fatalities don't bother me that much as long as he is a top tier character to balance it out. He is one of my favs of all time, and they didn't mess anything up just because YOU think his fatalities are bad. I like them both, and I personally hated Kung Lao's in DA simply because he should have sliced them in half. However, what is a Tomahawk made to do? Throwing it into someones head like that is a perfect fit for it, it makes more sense. I hated Kung Lao's in DA, it didn't suit him at ALL. Even though it was KIND of like a remake of Kung Lao's, it's quite obvious that it was suited for tomahawks much more all along.

My only beef with fatality #2 is the way he catches the head. She has no hat on, so hes not grabbing onto a hat strap. Glitches when he catches the head bothers me. Other than that, not bad at all.

I'm not going ape shit, just my strong opinions :)

I agree about the Fatalitys. They arent that great, but they arent the what I expected.Although I dont agree about him being useless. I thought Nightwolf was a good character in MK3 & will also be in Deception.
Although. Im am also very upset they showed eveything for him. Both Fatality's and his Hari-Kari. C'mon. Now im not looking forward to playing him as much as i use to.

His special moves are bomb. I love the way the arrow sticks into the opponent's chest

Well, according to this guy, Fatalities seem to be most important. And Nightwolf has awesome special attacks and styles. But yeah, sooner or later every characters fatalities are gonna be ripoff's or suck because you can only come up with so little ideas for characters who stick to one or are unique in only one way. Say like Sub-Zero. Not saying he's bad. Subby is a classic. But he's fatalities don't effect me anymore.

I like the Fatalities to be original. Neither of his are original at all. His special moves are cool but, nothing new. Maybe i'm not saying they failed with him yet, but what I am meaning to say is that it's going in that direction.

I like the trend in the MKD fatalies. Simple, brutal and effective. They're not gruesome, but they all have an element of style. That's something that's been sorely missing from Fatalities for a long time.

Your Opinions to me equal Shit. Have you played as NgihtWolf? Have you gone Against NightWolf? For Both Answers, there are NO. SSo how can you judge something just on the Fatalities. Last time I checked, Fatalities dont make Games, Gameplay and Feutures do. ESPECIALLY Gameplay. So for now, STFU

So far some of them are great. But for me, in DA, they were too long and some of them just didn't work well with long.

Well, then lates take Sub Zero for instance. Why is it that they can come up with new kickass Fatalities for him in this game, when he was in every MK, but Nightwolf's are ripoffs of another character? Sure Sub Zero did that head rip a lot, but that's nothing new to Sub Zero.

There's only so much you can do with Nightwolf fatality wise without it being either over the top or not making much sense at all. I think they should have done something with his arrows, THEN maybe put the final touches on the opponent with the tomahawks. Other than that, his moves and styles are great.

That would've been good. He shoots an arrow through their head, they squirm for a while and then he pulls it out. And no, development team, the characters brain shouldn't be on it. tongue

Piece of shit? God, don't get me started. You haven't even played as him yet.

FOR EXAMPLE: I HAVE ALWAYS !!!!HATED!!!! Sonya. But after DA came out, she became one of my favorites.
