I'd rather be upfront and honest about my selfishness than hide behind bullshit explanations like so many others.

Bullshit explanations?

It's all opinions. I think playing as bosses is lame.

But at least I don't throw some BS justification out like "don't pick them".

That's the way I personally see it. Just don't play as them. *shrug*

I'm sure NRS can make them extremely tough in arcade mode, yet tone them down when you select them. That would be the best of both worlds. You get your "true" bosses and I get my playable Kahn and Goro.

Just saw Sonya's picture in the magazine...and she's wearing high heels.

I've ranted enough over that crap so i'm over it, but it still baffles me why they contradict the way they depict their character's personality. Oh well, I very rarely use Sonya so not that big of a deal.

Being able to use them takes away from their presence as a boss, regardless.

But just because I don't select a boss, doesn't mean I'm never going to go online and fight someone using them, and it has the same effect.

Well, I'm sorry, I can't help you there.

*Your* only solution is having them unplayable. I tried to not be as "selfish" with mine and yet you give me this bullshit "But just having the ability to still somehow play as them ruins it!" reason. For crap sakes, dude, you can't have it your way 100%.

It makes them less of a boss to YOU, not to ME. Fortunately, this game isn't made to just please Luca. Nor is it made to please Ahnka. That is why there need to be a compromise, which is exactly what my solution was.

They're different opinions you ditz. That's all there is to it.

Stop trying to justify yours as the more sound.

And for the record, a compromise is where both parties bend to meet in the middle. Your great proposal of selflessness ONLY involves players who don't want bosses to be playable to make adjustments, you would have to do nothing. So please, spare me.

I don't know if that's sarcasm or you being serious. I can't tell over the internet. But if you are serious, What would be the difference? According to Luca's logic having the ability to play as them PERIOD totally ruins their status as bosses.sleep

I don't call names. I point people out for what they're acting like. In your case, it was a ditz.

Let me reiterate what I've been saying all along, and what you have yet to understand. There is no solution. We both can't have what we want, because we want opposites.

They. Are. Two. Separate. Opinions.

Playing as bosses reminds me of UMK3 when you played as motaro ad use the kick juggle to win fairly quick. I am not exactly against it but I would probably won't play as them. I just hope you can kill them when the round is over rather then the spontaneous combustion or them just falling over when the match is over.

I'm against the idea of playable boss characters for some of the above reasons...I would agree that it takes away from them in Arcade mode. However, in installments where they have been playable, such as MKT and MKA, I think it was appropriate, as both of those games were all about 'having every character playable'.

I wonder if Motaro will make any appearance in this game? Maybe even a cameo in story mode would be neat. Quadrupedal Motaro, of course. Going back to topic, yes, Ermac's revamp isn't anything devastatingly different, but that's why I like it. It's similar, but it's still fresh.

Well that's Luca's problem not mine. And why do they have to be playable in the first place?...Man this fanbase is so spoiled After armageddon and trilogy suddenly All Bosses must be playable.

For people like Luca and myself: Just don't download the damn thing if you don't want to play as them. And the people who do get what they want. We use the excuse of Downloadable content too damn much but in this case it seems to be the case....case...case.

But they gotta pay. Nothing against you guys I just want NRS to get moar money. wink

No one ever said it was your problem because no one was even talking to you in the first place.confused

I already stated why I want them playable. I don't speak for anyone but Ahnka. I want them playable and they WILL be since Ed Boon confirmed it. So this issue is DONE.

I'll worry about looking ditsy when I'm doing something important like meeting the president, not posting on an internet forum with a bunch of strangers.

I love how you're slowly but surely trying to get off topic and make this personal. I'll stop you right there. I've said what I had to say. Done.

You told me to find a compromise and I did. And No, Shao Khan will be playable we're talking about sub-boss characters here.

Haha, I can always count on these threads for entertaining arguments.

But really, where did Boon confirm the sub-boss characters would be playable? Not being bitchy, I'm just curious.

Someone made a thread down below about an article in a mag-

"Those are classic combos and maybe something that players can look to. Did we put a special move for when Raiden is with Shao Kahn or Raiden is with Liu Kang or something? Those are the ones we really want people to be able to discover"

He also said it in an interview a while back that they would be unlockable if I'm not mistaken. I don't know which specific one. They will be playable. I don't get all the denial.
