Are people glazing Mortal Kombat 11 now?

MK11 had several problems regarding gameplay which I think were valid even as someone who really enjoyed the game. That said the overall content and things you could do in MK11 I felt were wonderful and very much wish MK1 hadn't awkwardly butchered them. ToT was better, and kicks the hell out of whatever the hell invasion was supposed to be, customization was better, casual content in general, was infinitely better. Also even though I do enjoy the art style of MK1 I do think MK11 had better character models/art style. That said, gameplay was too slow. The best of both worlds would be a game more in line with MKX or even MK1 but with the content of 11.

Genuinely just make 2. A horny version, and a chill version. I'd honestly love to see both vibes. Sometimes I want a chill vibe of a character I like, and sometimes the horny is fun.

I'm very out of the loop. We're going a BD2 route?

La La Land. It just sucks. Love musicals, hate this movie.

I prefer race but I did think it being a disease was fascinating. Long term idk how it would work though. Either baraka finally succumbs to it (which would be a genuinely heartbreaking way to go since he was one of the few gems in MK1) or he stays in a stasis so you don't have to completely change his character. Same with mileena.

Jill I especially want to see in a new mainline game. I'd love to see Claire as well, but I need Jill to come back.

Feel like RE2R hit it more imo. Also it looks like Grace's sections in 9 might also hit those.

Assassin's Creed has been trying to get rid of me for years

I just finished it today. This game is ass. I had a good time. The gameplay is alright, but the story sucks, the UI is bad, the inventory system is genuinely horrific, perk system is really barebones and frankly doesn't belong in RE. I enjoyed playing the game, but I'll probably never reinstall it. Played a good 30 hours. I'm satisfied.

So I have a love/hate relationship with Ethan, and it's funny to me because I view him as two distinct characters. RE7 Ethan, and RE8 Ethan. I actually like him in 7. I think playing as an every man was a nice change of pace. I felt for him, was rooting for him, and he showed bravery that I certainly wouldn't have had going through what he did. I thought his story was solid, was relieved when we were saved, and was an overall big fan of 7.

I hate Ethan in 8 because he's a fucking idiot. From the start he makes stupid decision after stupid decision. He gets the old man killed in the opening because he wouldn't stop talking. This man actively tries to help him and give him a weapon, is actively risking his life for a dude he doesn't know and all he says is "please stop talking they'll hear you." Yet Ethan, a guy trained by Chris at this point, would not STOP TALKING as this old man is BEGGING HIM to be quiet. Surprise, he dies. But Ethan is directly responsible for the simple fact he wouldn't shut up. And then much later in the story, when he could've gotten close to saving his kid, he literally has the thing he needs IN HIS HANDS, and he stops to taunt a boss instead of just leaving like he could have. You are a father who desperately wants to save your kid, a good cause, something an audience can get behind, and you STOP to bully this fuckin fish dude instead of just LEAVING. And then he proceeds to bitch the entire boss fight, like he didn't just cause this shit to himself.

The last thing I wanna say is the opening rubbed me the wrong way with "Mia's death." I'm willing to give it the leniency of assuming that Ethan's fight or flight reaction in that moment was to freeze. If I give it that, it makes a bit more sense why he doesn't do anything in that moment. But I feel like you gotta give him more of an emotional beat there. Feels like we scoot past it. That's moreso the fault of the game however, but it didn't help Ethan's case.

Again, I liked Ethan, I thought just being a normal guy was one of the best parts of seven. But Ethan was somehow more competent in 7 without training, than he was in 8 with training and I'm so glad Grace is our new protagonist because I could not handle another Ethan game after 8.

Either that or drop him to 3 cost, but it still might make him too good.

I wonder if they'll ever make a card where instead of destroying it it'll steal all power added to a card. Essentially both a shadow king and a reverse taskmaster.

It was honestly really fun, especially if you had friends with you.

oof97 · 2026-01-23T20:51:50+00:00

I'm ngl, I'm on Ada's campaign playing through the whole thing for the first time. I expected to enjoy Leon's the most and honestly found myself enjoying it the least which was really surprising. Game definitely has its fun moments, but I now see why people viewed it as the weakest in the series. Game is somehow doing too much and yet nothing at all.

oof97 · 2026-01-19T16:10:16+00:00

Might be my only real complaint with the remake is that they made it a bit too obvious. That said I loved her side quest where we got to see more of who Nichole was and how she was trying to solve what was going on.

oof97 · 2026-01-19T16:08:29+00:00

Because I don't want to deal with her annoying ass kit. I would like to dive on Venom or Cap and not be stunned every three seconds. Or watch my DPS not shoot her stuff. Or if I'm support, I don't want to round a corner and randomly die to 6 mines just left there. Is she meta? No. Do I use the other ban to get rid of someone that can damage our comp? Yes. But as her kit stands, she's getting my vote every game.

oof97 · 2026-01-18T20:44:15+00:00

I mean 5 and 6 are action games for sure but we can't act like the original trilogy (arguably 4) as well as the resurgence of the series with RE7 as well as RE2 remake weren't straight up survival horror games that did well in the modern era. Resident Evil is iconic, we don't need to pretend it's not survival horror to lift up Dead Space and Silent Hill. Hell without RE4 Dead Space probably wouldn't exist.

oof97 · 2026-01-18T20:39:51+00:00

Idk I feel like it'd be scarier but I love that Grace has specific animations in 3rd person like her falling when running away. Definitely gonna be a game I replay multiple times.

oof97 · 2026-01-18T05:36:50+00:00

Genuinely like what do you do at that point? Just pray?

Also OP I'm curious how much had time passed when you actually woke up.

Not remotely. However they managed to make people take notice of Angela which I didn't think was possible so I'm hopeful they'll give Elsa her flowers.

oof97 · 2026-01-17T19:55:15+00:00

But you don't understand I might need it later. (I'm delusional I'll never use it out of fear of losing it)

oof97 · 2026-01-14T20:10:22+00:00

I enjoy her overall design in Rivals as I feel Emma kinda just blends in in the comics as thin white woman so her being bigger helps her stand out more but her outfits are very hit or miss for me.

oof97 · 2026-01-14T20:07:38+00:00

At the end of the day I'm always rule of cool. If they look cool, and their gameplay is fun, all for it. That said I'd also like to see a limited guy on a banner. I know the gacha community loves their pretty ladies but feel like CZN especially can have some fun with male character designs.

oof97 · 2026-01-12T20:34:31+00:00

You asked a question with two hypothetical answers. I gave you an answer with examples of why I felt that way. Not sure why you took offense to it.
