I know why you REALLY don't like Jax. :gr_devil:
I don't even know what you're trying to imply with that?
How dare you hate a classic like Baraka! Are you even a Mk fan?!?! Jk...
I agree with you id like more post mk3 characters. Unfortunately most of them have died. (Reiko, Havik, Drahmin) Still other good ones available like Hotaru tho, I just feel like he's not very popular and won't sell.
Actually, only a handful of the post-MK3 characters have died in this new timeline.
Fujin, Sareena, Hotaru and the majority of the post-MK3 roster aren't dead.
While I may not have liked a majority of the post-MK3 roster aside from Fujin, Sareena, Hotaru, Havik, Reiko, Kenshi and Quan Chi, the difference is that (unlike most of the people stuck in the Trilogy era - not you) I'm willing to give those post-MK3 characters a 2nd chance.
If NRS didn't give Kenshi, Quan Chi, Shinnok or Tayna another chance after the old Armaggedon timeline, I'm pretty sure that most people still wouldn't take Shinnok as seriously as they did in MKX or have taken another look at Tanya (save for the few Tanya fans in these threads).
Just about any character can get revamped to be awesome in this new timeline (MK9 and MKX), and yet people are quick to dismiss the majority of the 3D roster because "dat 3dee eruh sux. Herp derp."
Let's all forget that NRS went back to a 2D playing field with MK9 and hasn't looked back, though.
That's my point.
Nevermind that just about every character (even the MK1 thru UMK3 characters) sucked major ass in the 3D era, and that characters like Quan Chi, Kenshi and Tanya also came from the 3D era, but whatever.
Double standards for certain characters, I guess.
EDIT:
The limp noodle Trilogy fans that want MK to be stuck in Trilogy mode forever, then have the audacity to wonder why MK has the same repeated roster, game after game.
Welp, it's because you ask for the same shit game after game, so characters like the 8 new ones get buried under the rug, while the same repeated shit is rehashed and recycled.
Instead of MKX, why didn't these people just ask Ed Boon and NRS to make MK9.5?
