Hi-res render?
Do you mean the loading screens?
If that's what you mean, Sub-Zero DOES have one.

there has been plenty revealed.
I guess the question is: how soon do you want ALL the characters to be revealed by?
Chill out. We only have seven announced characters so far and only one human female. Don't worry... I'm sure you'll get some slutty trash to obsess over eventually.
Although I'm usually excited for new characters, for some reason, I'm more interested in established characters for MK....perhaps the overwhelming number of lackluster post-MK3 characters left a bitter taste in my mouth. With a good chunk of the cast not returning, I can't help but be a little disappointed.
Sure a thing. And when I do, I'll actually be her in the game. LMAO
Good for you. Hope she's everything you never wanted.
That's just a screenshot of the Loading screen when someone was viewing an E3 Stream. To date there hasn't been any OFFICIAL Sub-Zero render/loading screen shot released similar to the new Kombatants + Scorpion.
That's all that the other hi-res character renders really were, though.
The NRS guys basically took out the "Mortal Kombat X" lettering and the load bar at the bottom, from the loading screen, and without those things it's what the other hi-res renders were.
The promotion for Mk9 was as such because they needed a lot of publicity to regain trust with the core fans and of course garner new people to get interested. Now MK9 has succeeded. We all trust NRS to do a great job and now they can use more of those assets to deliver a great game. They don't have to do nearly as much convincing as they did before. MK9 and of course Injustice I think has framed their demographic nicely. They want cinematic fights with competition level depth of gameplay and of course a story mode. This is going to be NRS's bread and butter from here on out. They're not going to... for example, move to a 3-d arena like Soul Calibur or the like any time soon. They're going to keep it a 2-D fighter I think. Basically, they're not going to drastically experiment like they did back at Midway.
How do you feel about Kotal and co.?

I loved MK during my childhood, after MK3, my interest in the series took a nosedive. MK9 brought back what I loved about the series, so it's difficult to beat that level of hype. NRS arguably tried too hard with MK9, since they couldn't even keep up with the weekly updates.

Okay, so this has been on my mind for a while now, and who knows, it may be just me feeling this way, but do the rest of you get the feeling this time around that the reveals are completely lacklustre when compared to MK9?
I'm saying this because for MK9, for each character revealed, there was a hi-res render released, gameplay trailer, story trailer, fatality trailer, etc.
I'm just not getting the same excitement like I did for the reveals for MK9. Not to mention that after a few days have passed since a reveal, the forum topics become stale again, whereas it was bumping like mad for the last iteration of MK.
Your thoughts?
I loved all the MK games up until Trilogy. After that, it wasn't until MK9 that I started to care about the series again. My biggest gripe is just the horrible new characters they come up with. I don't know how to put it in proper words, there was just an 'MK thing' about all the characters up until after Trilogy. There are some characters here and there afterwards that I didn't mind, I guess, but, I don't know if it makes any sense what I am trying to get across here (I know what I mean, anyway, lol), I just don't get the MK vibe from most new characters.
As Critical-Limit pointed out, this is all due to Tobias leaving.I loved all the MK games up until Trilogy. After that, it wasn't until MK9 that I started to care about the series again.

Boon was just a programmer, and once he was in charge, he had no clue how to keep the same spirit, and that when things went quickly downhill.
