People are still entitled to their opinions, Dimitri. Just because you're a huge fan of Kitana doesn't mean everyone on this site needs to be. She is TO ME a shitty character. You need to understand that I'm entitled to say that as well as anyone else who doesn't quite like her. Leave it be.

We are not talking about every redundant character in MK, but Jade specifically is redundant: she's not her own character and, looking like an easy replacement for Kitana, she weakens Kitana's role. Like Kitana or not, she IS the Edenian heroine; for this reason alone, she deserves better spotlight and not to be made look weak to give Jade a chance. She and her "best friend" are just not equal and it's not a matter of personal taste. This is like the discussion about human Smoke: if he doesn't become a cyborg and just hangs around with Sub-Zero, he becomes redundant. If they keep things like that there is no reason, beyond personal taste, to keep around Jade, who is not Kitana version 2.0 just for a few mannerisms.
Come on everybody, there is no reason to react like angry fanboys: it's not like the redundancy of characters like Jade and Sindel has never been discussed before!

Also, to those of you saying Jade was doing Kitana's job, hello thats because Kitana was under Onaga's control. Did you happen to miss that part while playing MKDeception? If Kitana had not died and been resurrected to serve Onaga, she would have been pincessing Edenia, but she couldnt, so Jade had to step in for a while. Also, I mean Kitana and Jade are best friends, Sindel is their queen, it only makes sense that they would go rescue Kitana.
About the loincloth stealing, The artists made several concepts of loincloth and dressy costumes that were intended for Kitana, but later given to Mileena and Jade, when they decided to give Jade an update since she had not been in a game since UMK3. The only thing that bothers me about Kitana's new costume is that the loin cloth should be longer and it should be front and back, not just front. I liked the only front loin cloth for Jade in MKD, but I think Kitana should have a front/back loin cloth. It would look much better, and the criss cross on her top should be left for her alternate ninja costume, not on her princess costume.
btw, I hate Kitana's purple costume, her worst design yet. If it was blue, it would be really good though. Her MKvsDC costume was horrible too, the purple one is only worse than that because its purple.

*Smacks forehead* The reason why Jade was in Deception was that they wanted to give her a bigger role since the last time we saw Jade was UMK3. How does adding her in the roster finally makes her doing Kitana's job? They purposely had Kitana as a mind controlled slave for Onaga, I hardly doubt she would have done so much that Jade did in this game.
Kitana is NOT just the only heroine for Edenia, her mother and Jade are as well.
And I love how you said that we're reacting like angry fanboys when I'm not a boy. Your arguments that you have coming back make no sense and are incorrect.
What most people think you are
@ Warlady Nobody is reacting to you like an angry fan boy/fan girl. You're simply facing dissenting opinions. I haven't seen anybody behave rudely or insult you at all in this thread. It seems like you want to argue with everyone and be antagonistic, which is whatever. You're entitled to your opinion..

I think you are simplifying Jade's role. She is not doing Kitana's work and she is not weakening Kitana's role. She is being to Kitana what Jax is to Sonya, what Baraka is to Shao Kahn, what Kung Lao is to Liu Kang. That's how I see it anyways.
And about the loincloth, indeed they made a concept art of Kitana wearing one, however, they chose for Jade to wear it ingame. And to me, that is what counts. Not what could have been, but what is.
Also, I resent the comment about us being angry fanboys/girls. I have this whole time tried to explain to you why I think Jade deserves a spot. I have at no point thrown angry comments about, so please refrain from such unnecessary insults.
I think it would be best if we agreed to disagree. You think Jade is redundant, I think she isn't. We both have reasons and arguements of both sides, but nevertheless, it will keep colliding. So let us just leave the discussion at that, shall we?

Well I'm hoping that the lovely and gorgeous Ms.Jade has her pigtails from Deception that is simply my all time favorite look of hers!!! She's my favorite female character of all time! But I feel she should have a slightly different look in this game compared to Kitana and Mileena.
