Even though I HATE guest characters, and hate buying pieces of an unfinished game it doesn't bother me since I stopped playing MK, and I love Freddy Krueger.

I'm no fan of the Nightmare on Elmstreet movies. I have always thought Freddy Krueger looked ridiculous and I have never thought he was scary. EVER! Not even when I saw the movies when I was a child. Incredibly sucky movies...

Ed Boon, I have never been as disappointed in you than I am now.
I think I will stick with the REAL MK characters...


i am dissapointed in you J-R you know NRS doesnt call the shots. WB does so if they say put oprah in the game you have to do it.

Everyone who's bashing Ed Boon for this, it's not his fucking fault. Blame Warner Bros.

Though I know someone who is definetly part of the blame for this.

Even though Freddy looks beast.

I’m actually a little curious to see what the character is like in the game and what his Fatality’s will be!
As much as I wanted a MK character to be added I guess it could be worse right?

Seriously, I was hoping for Daegon, Shinnok, Tanya, or Frost. As much as I like Freddy Kruger, I just don't think he should be DLC for Mortal Kombat.

I'm surprised Freddy Krueger still has a loyal following. The guy hasn't been relevant for a while now....

I'm all for guest characters but why not someone who, I dunno, doesn't suck as much or is still relatively interesting?

You got 3 MK characters, fan favorites for 2 of them, plus 6 free costumes and all of a sudden you aren't satisfied?

Okay, I can understand your opinion, and you're free to speak your mind, but I'm also free in saying:


Was that necessary? I state my opinion and you answer with "fuck you?" For what? Are you a big Freddy fan? Did I anger you by saying that I thought he hasn't been relevant for 10 years?

Or do I sound like an ungrateful MK fan? Becuase if that's the case, I've been an MK fan since the first game was in arcades, I played them all in the arcades as their revisions came out. It's my all time favorite series, always has been and always will be.

I was very satisfied with the first three characters, just as I was satisfied with virtually everything else about this game. It's really been my dream MK game, to tell you the truth.

I wasn't one of the people on here complaining because the DLC characters didn't speak or that Kitana was dressed like a hooker etc, yet I hate this choice for DLC and what, I'm not allowed to be disatisfied? I need to be told off for that?

Maybe I sound ungrateful, so let me clarify: I want my money back for the DLC character that I've already purchased but don't want. That's all. Everything else with this game is top notch and I couldn't be happier with it, though if I wasn't, if something bothered me, I'd like to think that I could come on to this message board and vent, just as MANY others have done, without someone like you coming along and cussing me out.



It's really on nobody's head but your own. But you're acting like the NRS team just bent you over a station wagon in a dark parking lot and raped you of all of your hard earned money, which they clearly didn't. But you act like this is some kind of terrible injustice. You're losing perspective on what you paid for, which was 3 confirmed MK characters, several classic new skins (despite those being free, something they could've charged. Hell Capcom has no problem with that) and a mystery 4th character.

You aren't happy with Freddy, fine. I get it. I told you your stance on not being happy with him is understandable, even if I still think it's retarded. But you're making it sound like the development team just screwed you out of 15 bucks, or that you didn't get your money's worth.

I'm not calling you an ungrateful MK fan, I'm calling you an ungrateful customer and yes, that gif was necessary in this case.


Alright, I'll put a stop to this now, since you're CLEARLY misreading me here.

I know it's on my head. I even said that I was the one that was dumb enough to buy the season pass before finding out who the 4th character was. I never said otherwise.

So no, I don't feel like I was raped or bent over or screwed out of my money or any other melodramatic image you can conjure up for what basically amounts to me being unhappy with ONE thing (just one!!) that they've done with this game.

I am VERY satisfied with this game. I don't know why I have to keep emphasizing that fact just so I can say one negative thing about it.

Maybe you're right a little though, about me being an ungrateful customer. I'll give you that, actually. I had a kneejerk reaction to the news and I came off somewhat badly. I put my money down, so I made my bed.

But ya know what? This is a message board full of passionate fans for this series, and we all complain a little from time to time. I'm sure you've said something, at some point about this series that wasn't completely positive. People shouldn't be told to fuck off just because they have an opinion or even if they come off badly in stating that opinion. On that, you were wrong.


Dude, I'm not telling you to fuck off because you have an opinion. I'm saying fuck you for being an ungrateful customer, because like you said, this is just ONE thing they might've done wrong out of all the things they did right, but it somehow leaves this giant sour taste in your mouth.

To be clear, I'm not complaining about you not liking the decision for them to include Freddy in the game.

Aside from wanting an MK character myself this is a welcomed surprise. I have some nitpicks about the double claws and his appearance but other than that I will probably get him. Will be at a later date with Rain & if others come out in September...because I am using my last 15 smackers in wallet for the Black Ops maps & next month instead of getting wallet money I am upgrading my PC a bit.
So to NRS if you read this and sales matter for more DLC....count me in but you have to wait for it.

Hmm... If those who oppose Freddy, would you rather have this girl?

I give you: Angela!!!



She can totally work, she can throw behives, hit you in the throat with a bow and arrow and shove straight irons up your twat.

Not to mention, her fatalities can consist of chopping your head of while standing naked with her dick out (censored of course) making that lovely face. And her second one is drowning the victim in a leeched filled port-a-potty while insulting you as you drown.

Yeah, this could totally work!

You really can't blame the NRS team for wanting to add new or different or guest characters to the game. Some of these guys have been working on the franchise for 2 decades now. I'm sure a there are more than a few members there going "For all that's holy, can we PLEASE do something different and not the same crap we have been doing the past 20 years?"


That's why you create new original characters, and don't make a reboot to begin with.


This.


And that would be great...if 75% of the newly created characters weren't a pile a of hot garbage. Also, I can't blame them for wanting to start a whole new story via reboot.


So you complain about people complaining about Freddy and then complain that the native characters suck.

I think I'm done here.


I complain about people feeling like they didn't get their money's worth with the season pass, not about Freddy.

I also complain about shit character design. I believe I have a right to do so.

I complain about characters like Dairou, Kai, Darrius, Ashrah, Blaze, Onaga,Moloch, and Hotaru because they are shit to begin with. Whether that's in the form of design, powers, story, fatalities, or anything else that goes into an MK character.

And I find it almost ironic that the guest characters have been treated with more respect and care than half the fucking cast of Armageddon. That's what I complain about.

If you can't seem to grasp that, that's really not my problem.


I grasp it just fine, actually. I don't see why anyone here is complaining about the opinions of others. I find it a little ridiculous that you or anyone else in this thread would come at anybody for openly disliking something for whatever reason, only to turn around and bitch about existing material or otherwise. Everyone is entitled to a viewpoint on this matter, so it's utterly senseless to debate whose opinions are correct. It's Kratos all over again here.

I happen to like Kai, but to each his own. Plenty of people hate anything post MKT and that's fine by me. I for one hope that they find a way to re-work all of the existing fighters somehow, but if not, then they're best left out.

Guest characters being treated like VIPs is WB's doing, not NRS. WB shelled out the coin for the usage rights, so they're making damn sure that NRS squanders any opportunity to improve the existing cast in the name of making Kratos not react to fatalities.

I didn't intend to sound quite so harsh in my reply to you, so I apologize for that.

It's sweet of you guys defending Ed Boon, but his word is the final. And he allowed this to happen. Hence my disappointment.

Luckily, Freddy Krueger is DLC, so I can choose not to buy him.

I must admit, I was more suspecting that it would be Jason with a new Friday the 13th movie tie-in, but... whatever.

I'm this surprised: [-]

I can't remember what movie she's from. April Fool's Day? Or maybe it was a slasher film set at a camp. Sleepy somethin? I seriously can't remember.
