Well, I guess everyone hates the "new changes". I actually like the Chaosrealm and Orderrealm a lot. They add a new feud in the MK universe. Chaos vs. Order, now that is an odd battle. I like the Chaosrealm, because it is mythical and you got the Asian and European gothic thing going. I like the Orderrealm as well, because it almost looks like Rome, if it isn't at all. Its got the judicial system and they believe in Order and fairness. I like both realms very much, because MK is expanding its realms and such.

I love Havik and Chaosrealm. I love Seido. Hotaru has grown on me a little bit. They just need to lessen his armour or if not that give him better looking armour. I hate Dairou. I hate Darrius.

I think the Chaos realm and Order realm are awesome. So contrasting, Orderrealm looks amazing, and Chaosrealm is cool cus of the disruption and anarchy - I hope in future MK games they explain more of the "Tempest" that was unleashed and changed the realm.

As mentioned above, I think it adds a great new dimension to MK, and the potential for characters is further increased.

I just hope they don't neglect the realms of previous MK's that were never fully explored, like Zaterra, Nitara's vampire realm, the entire plains of the Netheralm, the astral plains of Shokan, the wind, fire, water and earth realms of MKM/SZ etc. cus the whole Nexus only has 6 realms thing / 6 Kamidogu etc. kinda just avoided all mention of these other realms...
Just a quick idea...
Chaosrealm and Orderrealm team up because Havik wants life so there will be chaos, and Hotaru wants to restore order.grin

I guess those were just the six main realms. As for the Chaos and Order realms, I thought they were really cool, especially Siedo. It was awesome to see the nice, green lawns, and the waterfalls flowing off into the abyss. I think for the most part, the realms aren't hated, but the new people from them are.
Name ONE thing that you think is wrong with Havik or Hotaru. Hotaru is the most important seidan in MK so it comes down to him. Havik is the only Chaosrealm member in MK, so it comes down to him.

One problem I have with the Seido/Chaos Realm story is it just came out of nowhere when there's already a ton of shit already going on.

We already have Outworld, Earth, Edenia, and the Netherealm...each with numerous sub-plots of their own...and the possibility of the Vampire realm as well. Now on top of all this we get this big feud between Seido and the Chaos realm...which is barely involved with anything else that is happening. A storyline of this size deserved time and build-up and it just acorss like it was thrown into Deception at the last second.

Personally, I like the concept of Havik. But IMO, introducing an whole new realm for him is too much. It would have been better if Havik was the leader of just some cult from Outworld that worshiped chaos. Essentially the same deal and Havik is the only character to come out of it so far anyway. No need for an entire realm. We have Havik and he's cool...but we also have an entire damn realm just sitting there, too.

Something similar could've been done with Hotaru. Making him an overzealous soldier obsessed with bringing order to Outworld. No need for an entire realm.
Dairou's original concept in MK:DA was simply a bloodthirsty samurai mercenary. I know many...myself included...who would have preferred that instead of lumping him in with the whole Seido storyline.

If they really wanted to introduce entire realms and have it be an inter-realm war...they should've built it up more slowly and saved it for a future game. Now we have two whole realms from out of nowhere that don't really have anything to with anybody else and only 4 characters to show for it.

Another problem with the Seido characters is they're too far removed from everything else. Hotaru's quest to destroy Sub-Zero was shallow and contrived. Dairou was simply after Hotaru. And Darrius had nothing to do with anything beyond Seido itself. The only one who came across as interesting was Havik.

Not to mention, they blew a potential story oppurtunity by revealling Darrius was responsible for the death of Dairou's family too soon. Had they saved that reveal for the endings, it could've been a nice twist and offered a cliffhanger for the next game. Instead they announce it right in Darrius' bios leaving nothing interesting to be revealled in his ending and Dairou doesn't even find out about it in his ending....making the whole just fall flat.

You say that Chaos and Seido just appeared after MKDA and I definitley agree with you. But what do we know happened after MKDA? A new realm was seperated from Outworld. Nitara's vampire realm. What if the Vampire race was one of these realms. I know it would be stupid because they didn't hint at anything like that and to just throw it in now would totally fuck everything up but its a thought?

I love the storyline. I love Hotaru. I love Darrius. I like Havik. I hate Dairou.
If we get them more involved and introduce more Chaosrealm characters, will that be any better?tongue

It's the travelling, repititve. It get's tiring and needs fast travel. As in WOW and Elder Scrolls fixed.
What else would make the 2 new realms better?
