But starting with Deception the MK team have started getting stuck in the act of pleasing those uptight conservative "my way or the high way" whackjob basement dwelling self-proclaimed "know it alls", who post here all the time btw, and who pride themselves on knowing everything about MK including Liu Kang's dick size. I hate those people.

OT- Did you draw that sig? LOVE IT!


I did! ^.^ I'm always quite shy of uploading my work up onto here though because there are artists on here who'd totally put me to shame, but thank you :)

Oddly enough I loved Deadly Alliance, the story was at it's deepest then. Every little event tied into each other with such delicate little details creating a bigger, finer piece of work. It was Vogel's MK masterpiece but I think the fighting engine and some of the in game graphics weighed it down quite a bit.

On another note though, (apologies that I forget the guy with the cactuar avatar's username!)

That Scorpion as a car boot sales man comparisson is shockingly ridiculous. Seriously. At least the Lin Kuei done something familar, they automated a member of their clan, albeit Sub-Zero. Though on that note, it means the clan actually successfully carried out what they originally intended to do back in 1995! You honestly can't compare Scorpion giving up being a vengeful, hateful, cliched bastard spawned from the Netherrealm to gain a career as a Car Salesman, to the Lin Kuei automating a member of their clan similar to the way they did in the original storyline. That's just you being over dramatic.

I understand some people are pissed that a mascot of the series got a serious make over in terms of storyline and anatomy, but he wasn't the only fighter in the reboot who's been chopped and altered to suit the time line. Kitana, Mileena, Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Nightwolf, Sindel and Raiden have all had massive alterations to what we've established as their personality, story and character. Yet you don't see their fanbase whining about it.

I'm at a loss for idiots who think Rain is the only character that can be deconstructed in such a manner. Any MK character can be deconstructed to shit, including whoever is your precious favorite. You just don't like Rain, others do. It's not as complex as you think.

It's not like we have a fetish for poop or something crazy. O.o


you mad your favorite character was created from a palette swap? :(


Why would I be? Half of the most liked characters were created from palette swaps. What does that have to do with anything?

I do too. I don't think there's a character I hate. I like them all. Though Quan Chi is starting to annoy me. But it takes a lot for me to HATE a character.

Scorpion and Subbie were palette swaps of eachother.
They still resemble one another quite a bit, where as the other former palette swaps now have each their unique looks.

Now we have two more "palette swaps", human Sektor and human Cyrax.

Of course, given the TLC NRS has given to the classic trilogy characters, they could even get me to like the characters I don't really like, haha.

you're getting all bent out of shape lol. i prefaced my "rant" on rain with "in my opinion." doesn't mean i'm right or wrong. (i'm right). i don't think rain's storyline is relevant or holds a candle to someone like Subs. If he's not in the game no biggie to me. I do think Ermac is a G however.

@NoobSaibot5, You shouldn't be afraid, there are artist I've seen who aren't as good as you showcase their work on here. I loved how you kept Kitana unmasked. She's beautiful! Have you drawn any other characters? You can PM me if you like so we won't keep going off topic. lol

I was trying to show that it is indeed unfair that the Subbie fans have all those Subbies to play with, but we Rain fans have no Rain to play with.

Subbie fans are so greedy...


I think someone is butthurt that Sub Zero is way more badass and popular than rain (and jade for that matter)....Why shouldnt Subby have all those alternates him and scorpion are the face of the franchise, how many times has rain been on the cover of the game? Also as someone pointed out earlier Sub already has water on lock, he can just freeze anything rain tries to do then stab him in the neck with it..... uh HELLO WINNING ANYONE? and who are you to say anyone is greedy your the one complaining about the actual game Sub Zero=Winning Rain=troll

Yes, I'm butthurt... But in the good way. ;)
And not about Rain not being in the game.
It's called sarcasm, sweety.

I do like Sub-Zero, and I recognize he's got alot of popularity troughout the forum. But what you did just there... that's douchebaggery. Yes, that is indeed not a real word, but it fits my description of your post perfectly.

So far anyone that doesn't agree with you is a "douche bag." You've got about as many quality comebacks as your boy rain. He probably thinks people easily can pick up on sarcasm on message boards as well, hence him wearing purple.

Rain was left out for DLC and Motaro was likely very difficult to implement faithfully in the game. And I'd much rather have no Motaro than a bastardized two legged Motaro.

I look at all the pages for this post and I think "Wow, there must be an in-depth conversation going on about Cyrax and Sektor!" Silly me...

Anyway, I don't mind that Sektor looks a bit like Young Shang (it's a very slight similarity in my eyes). And since they went out of their way to put the bombs on Cyrax's belt and the flamethrower on Sektor's back, I'm sure they have a plan for the net and missles.
