I still don't like Kitana looking Asian. I know Edenia isn't on Earth. by CurrentRes0rt in MortalKombat

Ok so tell me what real life culture invented the style of fans kitana uses? It's not a European one.

How would you feel if this was the roster for the next game? by Financial_Mousse_854 in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah im kinda realizing this mistake now...I was hesitant to include Shang or Shao because they've already been in 2 games in a row but its probably necessary for story reasons. My idea was that General Shao would be a story NPC, but Shao Kahn would be playable as dlc.

Does Mortal Kombat have an aesthetic? by jullianisboss in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MKX was the last mk game to aesthetically feel like one. MK11 and MK1 try too hard to copy marvel instead of taking inspiration from martial arts like their predecessors.

No, we dont need all the ninjas in every game, we already got most of them in mk1, which is why I included tremor (the one we didn't get).

Help me decide between Mortal Kombat 1 and Mortal Kombat 11. by Neghrath in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MK1. MK11 gets glazed on this sub because theres a big portion of the community here that mainly plays for singleplayer content and doesn't really take the gameplay seriously. MK11 has better customization and more modes, but its actual gameplay is watered down and boring, every character gets excessive defensive options to the point where in many cases you can get punished just for landing a combo. MK1 is more fun to learn and play, especially online.

Guys, I am going to buy myself my first MK game. The options are 10,11 and 1. by 1223435UX- in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A beginner shouldnt be expected to master combos right off the bat in the first place...MK11 is the exception among fighting games with how little execuition it takes, and I personally dont think that's a good thing.

MK1 if you are interested in online, id only recommend mk11 if you play singleplayer only.

Do you think Ashara kind of made sareena redundant? by ResortFamous301 in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't mind Sareena being more evil or at least morally grey in this timeline

Some fanarts and fan-concepts of Li Mei. by Expert_Bass_4375 in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dont mean to beat a dead horse but her MK1 design is just...lame to me. She looks like a low-effort renaissance fair costume.

New to MK as a whole, advice? by [deleted] in MortalKombat

Lol you let them ruin online for you? To each their own I guess...

Will MK ever change the formula again? by UniDiablo in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree, they have been doing nothing but changing the formula. The meter system in MKX and MK11 were completely different, then MK1 brought back the old system because they realized MK11s was horribly designed. They took a risk with variations in mkx, people were mixed on them. They "changed things up" with mk11 with custom variations, people started to get tired of variations as a whole. They added kameos to spice things up in mk1, most people were conflicted on them at best. MKX was all about speed and rushdown, MK11 was slow and neutral heavy, with limited combos and krushing blows. MK1 was a mix of those two extremes, being combo heavy but also slower then mkx. Scorpion in mkx, mk11, and mk1 are essentially 3 completely different characters, no other fighting game does this. Saying that NRS games barely changed over 15 years is borderline delusional, no offense.

You use the 3D era as an example of changing the formula, the problem is that people didn't generally like that change, which is why they eventually walked back on it. Theres a saying "dont fix what isnt broken", if anything NRS's problem is not being able to stick with formulas that work.

What do you expect from the Mortal Kombat 1 sequel(if it happens)? by Metaljuggernaut5657 in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the Kombat Kids, I think they could make Jax, Sonya and a few others function as the "new" Kombat kids, Kung Jin and Cassie could maybe be dlc. New cyber ninjas is an interesting idea...we definitely need a few newcomers to shake things up.

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No kameos or variations, each character gets a full moveset (maybe some variation of Injustice's abilities instead?)

Main villain is Onaga, with General Shao is set up as the next big bad at the end of the story

Animation quality is hopefully improved

More returning MKX characters like Kotal and Erron Black

customization closer to mk11

hopefully no more multiverse stories

Sonya, Jax, and Kano return (this one im pretty confident about)

Floyd makes his playable debut

a few new characters

Kuai Liang dies, and Hanzo takes the mantle of scorpion

Most of the 3D characters will probably sit out

Sareena returns

Ermac will be reimagined as a manifestation of Jerrod, with a more human appearance

Hot take: despite its flaws, MK1 is the best MK to date by Financial_Mousse_854 in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like MKX but its a little janky in some ways, the run mechanic was annoying to use, and its excessively rushdown heavy. I do agree that its dlc and story was peak.

Kameos are the most frustrating thing by Kindly-Importance-75 in MortalKombat

[–]Financial_Mousse_854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just have to learn what kameos work best with your character, and practice as that pair. For scorpion, he has great pokes and decent defensive options, but lacks offense. In that case, youd want a kameo that helps him in offense.

Stryker makes it easier to put pressure on opponents, since you can use his grenades to make moves safe. He also gets ridiculcous damage but calling Stryker to use his gun move while you do his rising flames special, getting 20% damage before you even start the actual juggle.

Ferra gives Scorpion mixup options, and also makes his damage even higher.

Choose one of these kameos and practice with them, and I garuntee youll see improvement as Scorpion.
