The thing I don't understand is there's some utterly smokingly hot costumes already in the game, but it's only for a few select characters or they're not readily available.

They don't have to go super slutty to be appealing or sexy. Sindel's bodysuit is phenomenally sexy by just having a few little windows to her body, the newly released MK2 female ninja costumes (albeit not the sexiest around the ass) are absolutely lovely and at last show off Skarlet's figure (OMG thighs!), Kold War Skarlet is deliciously naughty, Klassic Cassie is absolutely fine especially the Kahn Killer variant (would prefer it without the jacket though... and can't believe they went to the effort to show VPL through the shorts), Sonya's got her MK3 outfit and her Terminator 2 combat gear (with visible nipples!) and hell she looks amazing in the Top Brass skin (which is sexy without being MK9 stupid) and I'm absolutely fine with both Jade and Kitana's costumes, outfits like Honoured Tradition and First Princess are both utterly wonderful.

Now that I've finally got both Klassic Ninja Skarlet and Kold War Skarlet, I love her to bits, it's amazing what a little bit of diverse character design can do to make a character more appealing, yet neither of these costumes are readily available and the rest of Skarlet's costumes are either 3 very similar variations of a leather-clad dominatrix or 3 very similar variations of desert nomad (hat and goggles, hat no goggles and no hat no goggles do not qualify as three different costumes IMO!) for which there's a needless 60 rainbow colour variants. Kold War and Klassic Ninja are proper unique and great looking skins that completely change how she looks from the default choices, yet not everyone has access to those and that's the failing here.

And then you've got characters like Cassie whose majority of costumes are just awful, have no plot context, out-of-character and cover up everything to the point that I don't understand how Cassie could even fight in a space suit of that bulk and heaviness, that's where it really goes wrong. Don't go so far in the opposite way you take away from the characters personas. I don't need Kitana's boobs hanging out to find her nice to look at, and since day one in 1994 she's worn form-fitting navy-blue attire and First Princess does that admirably (and if you wouldn't find a real woman wearing an outfit of that slinkiness very attractive, there's something wrong with you haha).

There's so many costumes in this game that are just *bad* which is the mind-boggling thing. Cassie was awesome in MKX with the SWAT-style bodysuit and her Endurance workout gear. Here she looks like a robotic clown in most of the costumes that are also so unflattering - even Cassie Quinn gives her 'love handles' and the smeared make up makes her look repulsive. I love Jacqui in her BOLO costume with the gorgeous long curly hair and a muted-colour scheme, but for the most part she just looks a dork, either a futuristic tribal warrior in a ballroom gown or a tweenager with Cosby Show braids and BMX gear haphazardly strapped to her arms. Where's a proper Special Forces Jacqui?

I'm fine with just MK1/MK2 levels of female costume exposure (well more realistic is nice than cheap day-glow lycra, but I mean in terms of the amount of sex appeal), I don't need MK Conquest or MK9 levels of slutiness, it's just when the costumes on offer largely all utterly suck and offer no variety (come on why do Jade and Skarlet have the same masks?), that's when it's thoroughly disappointing.

I mean to be completely honest, Mortal Kombat 9 did that stuff for the first time and I was all grossed out by that stuff. But I didn’t want that to go away. Because I don’t want to be out here dying by this.

First and foremost you are wrong. 100 percent wrong. It was indeed created with that in mind. MK was direct response to the pc culture of the time. And yet here we are now. Little by little, they'll be taking things away because of people like you. So we all know who to blame, when things go south. You and people like you. No malice intended in that statement. Just being brutally blunt.

Tbh the reason why i have a problem with the mk11 ninja girls is that some dont have the masks on their mouth.If they had that i whould be completly fine with everything.Im not the biggest fan that the sexy levels have been tooned down but everyone has there own prefrences.Before they looked like their backs whould break of how their boobs were large XD LOL but now they doo look like they can be a bit more mobile becose they dont have two watermelons hanging on their chest

Wow... 23 pages... just realized that the 1995 film was very woke yet we, as fans, allowed it to happen and didn't complain then. You can see what I mean in the Media forum.

WTF are you talking about? What was so "woke" about the first film? I clearly recall seeing Sonay's HUGE tits jiggling out of her shirt when she grabbed Kano between her unnecessarily hot legs. The only other female fighter was really Kitana... and she wasn't a fighter. MK2 didn't have bikinis so... yeah. Don't even think about calling Annihilation woke. Jade's existence in the film was the exact opposite of "woke."

Can we please retire the term "woke"?

Bridgette didn't have big breasts. They were pushed in to look like that. And only her clevage was out not her "tits." Given its PG-13 rating it had no choice but to be woke.

MKA was only woke with Kitana and Mileena and Sindel and Sonya. Sheeva and Jade were not woke. The mudfight was still done wokely.

Still a PG-13 determined this.

Conquest, with a TV-14 rating, was much less woke than either of them.

I anticipate the live-action reboot will be very woke.

Ask NRS first lel

Quite honestly, Conquest is literally the sleazy apex of Mortal Kombat being marketed with sex, it actually makes MK9 look positively restrained at times haha!

You know, you've got admire the girls in this show. When they set their mind on something...

Was Bridgette Wilson a beautiful blonde white woman just like Sonya from the games? Yes she was! They didn't make her ugly to push the feminist agenda nor did they change her race to push the pc agenda, so she wasn't woke!

Was Talisa Soto a beautiful latina just like Kitana from the games? Yes she was! They didn't make her ugly to push the feminist agenda nor did they change her race to push the pc agenda, so she wasn't woke!

Sonya from the past games was a hottie but now when I look at her in MK11, the first word hat comes to my mind is ma'am.
As for Kitana, it's one thing to totally change her race because of political agenda, but for the love of God, they should at least use a pretty Asian face model then...
And the same goes for Jade. If they changed her race to Arab, at least they should use a pretty Arab face model, but they purposefully used an ugly one to please the feminists.

Conclusion: compared to MK11, the 1995 MK movie was anti-woke as hell...

I don't agree with your post AT ALL.

They used professional catwalk models Kaprice Imperial and Alexis Gaube for their models for Kitana and Jade respectively, two women whose careers exist because they are beautiful.

Alexis Gaube in particular I consider astoundingly gorgeous.

The only problem with Sonya in this game is the godawful voice acting and the fact they made her and Cassie look too much alike (what happened to Cassie's punky haircuts to help define her visually?). The voice acting goes a long way to changing how she comes across.

Yes Sonya's not "NSFW page 3 glamour model" hot in this game, but neither was Elizabeth Malecki in MK1, and Sonya doesn't even have a face model, she's entirely CGI. Plus she's a military commander now in her 50s, I wouldn't expect her to look like a glamour model, thought she looked RIDICULOUS in MK9. After all, if they'd used the original cast as they've aged naturally to play their older selves in MK11, then Sonya would actually look like this (and I mean that with no disrespect to Elizabeth Malecki nor am I suggesting she's ugly, she's just not Kerri Hoskins aged 25 in 1995 who was indeed an actual glamour model):

Instead she looks like this, and yes this is a beautiful face. It's just the droning monotone that comes out of her mouth that kills her character and can completely change one's perception of her in this game:

Mk11 is way better than MkX at this point again more badass looking females and my fav Queen Sindel has returned finally!!!

Middle easterns in general aren't as dark skinned as Jade in this game. Her skin looks beautiful.

if you want to masturbate on digital bodies, visit PornHub and type MK11 Sex or whatever I am sure you will find 3D stuff there If you hate MK11 because the females dress respectfully and not "slutty". If you hate the MK11 models because Jade is black and Kitana is Chinese ( you previously hated Skarlet cause she looked Syrian/Arab as well but you changed that cause you made sure she is a white actress) then go fuck yourself in the head.

The sale numbers of MK11 (around 6 millions) compared to the sale numbers of MKX (around 11 millions) proves me. It also proves that cultural marxism (which was forced upon MK in MK11) has no place in MK.

MK11 way surpassed the 6 millions mark but now .. and dude... MKX'11 millions is the total number of sales in it life time... MK11 will probably surpass this.

There is a game for that .. DOA6. The females there are as jiggly and slutty as they have always been and it tanked in sales.

Moooooove on

Lmao DOA 6 didnt do well but it wasn't because the females were dressed a certain way. On the contrary it got a lot of flack from fans because they were trying to steer away from that stuff to cater to E-Sports and sponsorships. It wasn't until there was a pushback from fans that they kept the fanservice. The way the women dressed in the game was the least of its problems, though.

That's what I am saying... They brought the jiggs and the boobs and it still tanked.

MK11 was the 5th highest selling game of the year and it's projected to surpass MKX's.

I won't say that MK wasn't sexualized in the past... It was on multiple releases but to pass on this excellent release because the digital porn level is tuned down is absurd. By now most of the MK fans are in their 30s some are in their 40s, if you are that and still get on to digital boobs and asses then there is a problem.

I dont see a problem admiring the female form but that's just me.

Me too

She supposed to be a hot beast, now she is a lame unattractive beast.

Looks like she's played by a model. With the addition of Rain & Mileena there's a glimmer of hope they may release MK9 era skins.
