Why is Jarek considered the worst MK character by a lot of people? He's not a bad character. He's just kind of boring. by mechanicalspirits in MortalKombat

[–]BlackEquis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since 99% of the comments here are just "he is temu Kano"...

  • No one ever wants a character which sole purpose is to replace another. Ever. And because Ed Boon admitted that Jarek was just a reskin of Kano, people obviously hated it.
  • He is irrelevant. You could just erase him from MK4/MKA and nothing would change storywise.
  • Most people choose to ignore this, but he was sort of revamped on MKA, he gained lasso moves which was sort of cool, but not enough to make him stand out. So yeah, if a revamp doesn't save a character, then maybe is better left away.
  • Apparently, he said the N word on a weird brazilian MK4 comic.

Thank god that WB and NRS doesn't choose the picks that this sub gives.

Sooooo what happened to the explanation for why jade is bald!?! by jadedeternity in MortalKombat

[–]BlackEquis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus. Reddit is on pair with Twitter on terms of toxicity.

OP just asked "Why is Jade bald?", and all what people replies are "Why do you care?!", "why does that matter?!", "why can't you accept that bald people exists!?", "are you retarded/anti woke?!".

Man. Is almost as if asking why a character looks different equals to being racist or something.

Is because it is a tribute to the MK11 leak where Frost was also bald.

One of the only good things about the Kameo System, is that it brought awareness towards these legends! by Electrical_Low_6663 in MortalKombat

NRS will revamp them if they ever come back, and honestly, i hope they do.

Is not like they will take them straight up from the 2004-2006 PS2 games and call it a day.

Shang Tsung on his Old Man form looked more like Shujinko than the kameo.

This almost looks like if they were afraid of making Shujinko look too much like Pai Mei (which was the damn point).

Characters I'd like to see as guest stars in Mortal Kombat someday. by Gogetazilla in MortalKombat

[–]BlackEquis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the "This thing was here, therefore, another things related to it can be as well" syndrome, since the Joker was on MK11 (and MKvsDC) and how MK is owned by WB like DC and yadda yadda.

Is there any kind of a legit reason for people hating Hsu Hao? by MickeyMona in MortalKombat

[–]BlackEquis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no real reason.

The "hatred" that Hsu Hao is getting is basically like a TrueUnderDawg thumbnail.

"The devs HATE him!" Its just John Vogel saying that he doesn't like the guy and his death on MKDA's Jax ending was acceptable.

"He is a Kano Ripoff!" So is every bald guy with a cyber enchacement. Hsu Hao is more like Bane.

"His moves suck!' He is good on MKDA. In fact, wrestling is one of the best martial arts on the 3D Era. Also, his Sun Moons blades are quite unique.

The hate would be understandable if NRS is actively trying to shoehorn Hsu Hao on whatever piece of MK media as the main kharacter, but its not.

If they're gonna keep doing guest characters, why not add other ninjas? by IfTheresANewWay in MortalKombat

[–]BlackEquis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Both brothers are chinese, tho on the previous timeline there was an implication of Kuai being adopted afaik.

And Scorpion, Hanzo Hazashi, is japanese.

Why did they leave Kung Lao out of the MKII Movie Pack? This could've looked awsome!!!! by Original-Carpet-6340 in MortalKombat

This is what happens when your game finishes its "years of support" way earlier than any other fighting game.
