Wow there is a lot of fools showing their whole ass on this thread, imagine being so stubborn over the idea of being team red or blue, it's a forum for a video game franchise we all love simmer the hell down and get some perspective or develop a hobby for your mundane ass life that you decide to come on a MK fansite and preach nonsense.

BE EXCELLENT TO EACH OTHER

By following your example? Ha!

Sorry I agree with the spirit of your post, I just couldn’t resist myself lol.

To his point- you do seem like you need a new hobby that doesn't revolve around watching Fox News.

Yeah because i watch Fox News.

Because I’m a registered Democrat and all. Typical Fox News audience.

I don't care what your political views are.

You evidently do, because you mentioned them

You've been mentioning them for 10 pages now.

Mark my words; eventually at least some of these characters in fighting games will be obese, and not in the comical way, either. I guarantee it.

Already happened.

I don’t have any power over what they do to their games. I don’t work at NRS. I only have power over what I buy, and to raise my voice to let them know just why I will never buy that atrocity until significant changes are made. Quite simple.

And this my friend is the biggest power there is, because all the gaming industry is kneeling before that power. The sooner we realize that the sooner will they give us what we want and not what they try to shove down our throats.

I find it amusing when someone is being called "far left" and they're probably just a liberal, if anything. Americans have so little understanding of the political spectrum and what actually constitutes left vs. right. The people U.S. conservatives like to call "far left" aren't even left at all. To be left wing is to be against capitalism which liberals are not no matter what conservatives like to say out of ignorance or trying to whip up the ignorant into a frenzy.

I can almost guarantee you he's not. If he's not a Marxist or anarchist, he's not left wing. Because that is what constitutes the actual left.

The U.S. political divide is tribal B.S. built around mainly arguments about identity politics and only the most minute of differences within the capitalist economic system, less Keynesianism versus more.

You know I used to be a leftist. I was a member of the Communist party. I only left that when they started making a huge deal about me being a male (lock your doors, lol)

After that I became a fairly conventional Democrat. Another mistake apparently.

Yes it is absurd how i used the term “far left.” 90% of the people who would be called such aren’t anyway near that. It’s iust rhetoric.

But everybody is “far right,” apparently, which is why I did it. Roosh V. is “far right,” for writing a book on how to pick up chicks lmao. Freaking Southern Poverty Law Center got after him. Why knows, maybe “Mortal Kombat Dissenters” will be honored like that one day lol.

I was a little down. Turns out Koei made it so Dead or Alive Xtreme:Venus Vacation is blocked in the U.S. So they wouldn’t have to deal with these journalists.

I was looking forward to playing it, too. But it says it’s blocked in my country.

Guess the pro-censorship people should pat themselves on the back. Yet another game we’re not allowed to play. At least I should get to play it when I see my grandparents in China, though my grandmother will have a fit She already hates me for being married to a white girl lol

Maybe a company will come along that’s again st censorship, and clean up.

With that depressing anecdote, I will end my harping on this thread lol.

Of course you're not...

If you think you know my political views just because of my thoughts on some fucking video game costumes- then YOU and other deluded minds like yours are what's wrong with not this country, but this WORLD. Most normal and sane people in this world are middle of the road- we all have gray areas- some may lean a little more one way than the other- but very few are extremist and the fact that you and people like you are willing to write every one who disagrees with you off as an 'evil liberal' shows that you can't handle differing opinions. Not every one who disagrees with you on this is some imaginary SJW boogeyman.

I'm a MAN in my late 20s who enjoys horror films(the more twisted and disgusting the better), kinky porn, and I generally enjoy offensive and mean-spirited humor. I just also happen to love the outfits in MK11 and is perfectly fine with not seeing Jade's tits. I also love Kitana's 'Asian Face' (not my words- but the words of others on here). But I'm a crazy liberal because of that?

Even though I was called an Alt-right extremist just a week ago on here?

Who is Ahnka, truly? A person with different opinions on various topics- which in other words means- a Well-rounded human being.

STOP...LABELING...EVERYONE...WHO...DISAGREES...WITH...YOU.

And can we PLEASE leave this BS out of this forum entirely? Jesus Christ! I only see 2-3 users with an "agenda" here and you're one of them.

/end political PSA

What does any of that have to do with me? Leftists aren't liberals, and liberals aren't leftists. I don't support either bourgeois political party. Both Republicans and Democrats are imperialist, capitalist parties. The fact that you responded to a comment that clearly explained how liberals aren't the left with a meme about liberals and Trump as if it applies to me or I should be offended by it just proves my point about the political ignorance of the average American brainwashed into the Democrat/liberal vs. Republican/conservative tribalism. And I'm sure when you posted that you thought to yourself, "ha ha I owned the libtard!".

I don't give one single solitary fuck if Trump wins a second term or not. I don't buy into Trump derangement syndrome; and I think he is no worse than Clinton, Bush, Obama, etc. The actual policies are little different, he just doesn't put the usual civilized mask on them that past Presidents all did. Liberals deranged over Trump didn't care when past Presidents were imperialists or treated the working class in this country like shit (which Presidents of both parties did). But they've gone crazy over Trump because of his vulgar and frankly, honest, rhetoric. They want to go back to having a President who does all that reactionary shit but is articulate and dignified while doing it, like Obama.

If anything, Trump remaining President is good for the actual left because his lack of that civilized facade makes it easier for us to reach people about the true nature of this system and recruit.

@mahne876: I feel like you're challenging me to a drinking game! Take a shot every time you write "gender studies." I'd be too hammered to even respond to this post at this rate! But let me attempt the old college try.

I addressed in my first post on this thread that there's a difference between designing sexy characters and designing sexually objectified characters. Any character can be sexy to any given person. Yes, muscular, shirtless men are generally considered to be sexy! No sane person would deny this. Also, interestingly enough, slender, fit ladies in skin-tight catsuits: also sexy! This game has many of them! Your mistake seems to be reducing "sexiness" to an equation determined by square inches of fabric over square inches of revealed skin. Solve for se-X, am I right?!

Shirtless men, while sexy, are not reducible in their designs to their shirtless-ness. They are not objectified; there is a character beyond their well-built pecs. In other words, Jax is not a male bimbo. People objected to the female character designs in MK9 because they weren't just sexy. In fact, they were seen to be in excess of sexiness, almost to the point of grotesque parody. It wasn't everyone's cup of tea! I could spend the next thirty minutes typing why some female characters in MK9 were sexually objectified, but really, would it really convince you of anything? You seem to have an automatic, knee-jerk hostile reaction to the very mention of the words "sexual objectification," attributing your resistance to *takes shot* "gender studies" (oh the horror!). But whether or not you believe the term has merit, it's not, by any means, some radical extremist concept. It's a fairly basic idea, with applications in both human psychology, philosophy, advertising, artistic design, and yes, "gender studies." *pours more whiskey* Maybe you could check out the wikipedia page for it! And by "you," I mean the people reading this who are not mahne876, because I'm pretty sure he's a little too afraid of a niche academic subfield to do his own research on the topic without parroting misapplied Orwellian paranoia every chance he gets!

Sadly, these willful misunderstandings proliferate when deep anxiety and fear of change take root. It's just...it's so sad to see people marshal so much anger and resistance over something like..."gender studies..." *finishes the bottle* to the point where they need to write the words "gender studies" *burps* so many times in a single post just to desperately convince themselves, through repetition, that an adjunct professor in Twin Falls writing a book on feminist literary interpretations of Henry Miller, getting paid $30,000 a year to teach four survey classes, is part of a secret international cabal to reduce Sonya's bust size in Mortal Kombat 11. But, you know, GENDER STUDIES!

"Sexual objectification is the act of treating a person as a mere object of sexual desire. Objectification more broadly means treating a person as a commodity or an object without regard to their personality or dignity."

This means treating a person as an object.
In advertising, modeling, beauty contests, etc; There is no such thing as "objectification" because a woman FREELY exercises her OPTION to work as a model, in an advertisement, in a beauty contest, to work with her image, etc. She is exercising a human right that is her FREEDOM or LIBERTY to work and do what she likes to do. From the first moment, she exercises something that is inherent in his quality as a human person that is her human rights, this is absolutely the opposite of being an "object".

In fact, those who are really objectifying women on this point are feminists, who want to censure and prohibit women from working as a model, in advertising, in a beauty contest, working with their image, etc. And prevent the free exercise of her OPTION AND LIBERTY. For example, by preventing women from working as advertising products or as we have already seen, removing the competition from Miss America swimsuits. All this only because feminists want to impose their ideology and morals on others.

And in fact, you could not "objectify" for example Jade MK because Jade is not a human person, has no human rights, is a fictional character, literally is an object. In things like this, "gender studies" show their farce and sensationalism to drive their narrative.

Feminists and their "gender studies" are just that, an IDEOLOGY masquerading as a science to give it false academic legitimacy.

This farce is developed in the faculties of social sciences, which have been instrumentalized for this political activism. The faculties of social sciences are often not being serious in the "investigations" or "studies" that they claim to have, but these studies are only aimed at continuing to promote a political narrative with little intellectual rigor.

Famous is the "Sokal affair", scandal that undressed the little intellectual rigor that the social science faculties can have in their "studies"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokal_affair

Another, more recent, is the one that brings to light all the corruption and political activism that the social science faculties are doing precisely in "gender studies" and "identity politics".
This is like ROSETTA STONE that comes to explain all this gangrene in the social climate.

Journalists and other professionals study at the university and are indoctrinated by these same activist teachers with all of them "studies", after that it jumps to politicians and the mass media and ends up contaminating everything and thus this unpleasant situation has contaminated video games and in this precise moment to MK.

Mark my words; eventually at least some of these characters in fighting games will be obese, and not in the comical way, either. I guarantee it.

Already happened.

Explain to me how shes obese?

Actually, I'm not sure if it is obesity or some kind of deformity. Anyhow, she looks like Mike Tyson after an unsuccessful gender-switching surgery.

Reactionaries have always hated the social sciences because their studies tend to challenge many prevailing traditions and prejudices. But the fact is that human society exists in nature and is a product of the material world and is therefore a perfectly valid area of scientific inquiry. If you have a materialist conception of the world including human history and society this is plain to see, if you are however an idealist as are traditionalist reactionaries then the idea of scientific study of human society comes as an affront to your worldview.

You & midwestdad43 cant even give out a full explanation to why you made that statement about her weight. Now your judging her appearance. Do me a favour? Don't buy the game or cancel your pre-order . Stay negative, nitpicky and petty, while the midway and netherrealm community grind on MK11 when it releases.

If those like me would make you such favor, there would be no more MK, simply because we are the silent majority of the MK buyers...

And Precisely is Dvorah, an insect, which has maintained its appearance, and not only that, it also has a bigger chest than Kitana, why Dvorah?

Why did not Skarlet nor Kitana nor Jade keep their previous outfits?

It's a big tease, the developers are insulting the fans. And they are doing it on purpose

Why should fans support these traitorous companies that spit in our faces, to serve this type of intolerant, censoring and dictating people?
