Let us calm down. They did not say anything about Fujin so I would take that as a plus. Even if Fujin is not in the roster they can add him later. They added Zatanna from a fan poll that Ed Boon made and linked from his Twitter. No reason to lose hope just yet in my opinion.

I wasn't able to watch from the Twitch link, so I tracked it down on Youtube, if anyone else who's late has trouble: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVhgD45zbps Still not 100% on how accessible these streams are supposed to be after the fact.


I've never been a fan (badpun!) of Kitana, but I have to comment on how much I like her design and that Assassin variation. I love rush-down characters with parries and/or grapples; and her knife-play during those added moves are very fun to watch. Now, if her story is on point after the God of Bad Judgment Calls and Earthrealm's hottest couple manage to free her from Quan Chi, she'll be an overall impressive leap from MK9 Kitana.

I think they stepped it up with Reptile as well (although I wish they'd gone with that Cobra Hood or the Arabian look from the sketches); but I got the feeling that his variations might be a little... "overpowered"? I won't make any premature judgment calls--after all, I'm not Raiden--but I'm apprehensive. I mean, that Noxious variation means that when fighting him, I'll be taking damage even while kicking his ass! That doesn't sound right. And the amount of damage seemed pretty daunting as it got powered up. Scary shit for a rushdown player like me.

Its the vibe he gives off. He acts kinda stuck up and uptight like hes above us or something. Derek is cooler and is always wanting to give the people what they want. like in the last stream he scolded derek to get off reptile as if just him hovering over his select screen sillhoute would reveal something.


To those individuals who don't like it I say boo freaking hoo. It's called a tease. They have a release schedule, they stick to that schedule. They were teasing the next stream just like how they stuck in the word brutal to tease the now next stream. He's doing his job, who fucking cares about hovering over a roster picture for a bunch of whiny entitled fans because they can't wait two weeks to find out his variations? They're there to show off who or what they're supposed to show off, not cater to us. Perhaps he just doesn't feel comfortable on camera, or nervous with the amount of people watching. It could be any number of things but I'm just sick of hearing people bitch about someone they've never actually met. It's ridiculous.


First off I'm tired of people like you cobstantly saying you have to interact with something or someone physically to see if you approve of it or not. An adult human mind is very capable of OBSERVING something visually in order to process it and understand it. In other words you can look at something to see if its your cup of tee. Stop generilizing everyones Observatory judgmemt skills As if they have to try something to see if they like it especially when they have prior experience in the particular subject or whatever they looking at or studying. Not everyone sees everything the same. For example i can look at a character to see if i like them or not. I dont have to spend hours playing as them to see if i like them. Same thing for me with people. Also it wasnt about them not showing reptile it was the manner in which he responded and how he acts.

Okay, let's just clear this up;

I'm not generalizing everybody's observatory skills, I'm grouping together the people who are constantly whining and complaining about someone they've never met, someone whom they are likely to never meet just because he is sitting there doing his job under a confined and heavily scripted scenario where they only have one hour to make sure they cover everything they need to cover. That's not exactly an easy task when you have two characters, 6 variations, two other people who have shit to say, any added crap like artwork and the whole time watching everything you say making sure you don't slip and say something you're not supposed to since they know everything we do not. They aren't doing this for our benefit or for theirs, its their job. They aren't doing it out of the kindness of their hearts for us, they're getting paid to do it to show off their product. If they aren't there that day to cover Reptile, then they aren't there to cover Reptile so he was probably only trying to please his superiors by staying on task.

So really, you wanna come down on me for not giving this, in other users words, "fat Seth Rogan fuck" a hard time and standing up for him, so be it but I don't generally find it fair to judge peoples personalities based on one hour intervals in a scripted scenario at their work place. I could easily judge every single one of you who talk down on him, but I don't, I'm just pointing out the rather obvious and moving along with my day.

So Kitana does have Jade's moves lol, so lame. I thought she was only borrowing her weapons, but using her own unique moves with them, but she's literally borrowing Jade's moveset, including the shadow kick which makes no sense because she doesn't need the weapons to do that. Not to mention she looks silly carrying 3 weapons now. A shame because her royal storm variation has some great moves.

That one. Honestly, it's by far the blandest of all the designs shown, some of them were really awesome. You can check all the concept art here:

Eh, I prefer the hooded concept. And for some reason it bothers me the concept is clearly asian and the in-game model is....clearly not. lol
dunno what to say about jade's variation ...there are still fan combos and some of the fan specials in it so it looks cool, but nitro kick ???!!! it's a bit too much ... also, it seems they got rid of her pretty kicks , which is a shame ...

her alt is growing on to me, tbh ... when i looked at it for a second time there, it's fine ...it resembles her mk9 princess gear with subtle modifications ... nice touch, considering her primary is quite a huge step in creativity department ... ;)

10+ characters revealed, and none of them are from the post-classic era except for one, who everybody expected to see and is fucking sick of at this point.

I'm not going to bother reading through the thread to find out if anyone noticed this before me, but the whole Kitana-Jade relationship has now come full circle. Remember when Jade was a secret character in MK2, and she had fans? Well, now Kitana has all of Jade's signature weaponry.

I wouldn't call the fatality as a whole disappointing, but I agree that the end result is way too clean given the fact that he does it with his hands. Reptile should just slit the opponent's throat instead of having yet another perfect vertical head split.

And actually its been more than 1 hour. This is the 3rd stream. I haven't liked him since the first. Also all that job stuff you just referred to is a flawed bad excuse. I dont see derrick acting that way. Also im not judging you for liking the guy. You can like who you want. Im just saying dont start trying to come at people because they do dislike him. And lol its a video game. You act like he had tk spend an hour talking bout how to do brain surgery. Is it really that difficult to talk about how to play as a character in a video game? Derrick seemed to flow through everything with ease . Anyways its his tone and demeanor and how he gives stuff off. His attitude is like we gave you something so be happy. Derrick's is like i wanna just please the people no matter what. Derrick just seems like the guy you would hang out with. Tyler just seems like that one guy who always ruins everything.

One thing that they didn't mention in the stream that I want to know is... Does Reptile's Invisibility still have a damage buff?

I LOVE the fact that he has so many universal moves and combos, it's going to make him dangerous across all three variations without too much learning involved. grin

Yeah, I know. I am still waiting more in hope then expectation for Smoke and Sareena but realistically next to nil chance of either of them at this point. It use to cut me up that they would not make it, but I realised that it is no good feeling depressed over it. It is what it is but still, until NRS tells us that they are not in the game, I still have hope. I am not going to believe otherwise.

The characters they have revealed are all practically from the cool kids club that NRS has had since the MK4-MKDA era. I am not really that surprised. It is like NRS wants to build every game around them.

They got to include post Trilogy characters though. Unless NRS is pretending those characters did not exist and the new characters are the real post Trilogy characters.
