Considering this game is all about Kronika trying to restore history to ensure Shinnok's future, I wonder if Shinnok will be in the game as a playable character.
I do hope he actually has significance to the story. I don't want another MKX Kung Lao.
Ok so, now that one is clear. We can ignore him and continue with what matters most.

While I like to sit in online mode a lot, so gameplay part is usually enough for me, I still get what you mean.
MKX actually felt like some sort of advancement from MK9. Online Towers, Adventure mode Krypt, new rage quit penalty system, and just then it comes to details (Gore especially)
MK11 feels like a bloody version of Injustice 2, especially when I look at the victory poses. But I think I can live with that. What matters is the additional content. Modes, Krypt, Towers, etc.
Their (NRS') obsession with having Scorpion on everything is vomit-inducing, and I probably would have gone with the physical edition if there was another option to have literally anything else / anyone else on the cover.
Shinnok looked very, very NPC in that trailer. He looked about on a par with Fujin's render in the MKX intro. He isn't going to be playable, and he has no head.
Online for me is not that important anymore. Simply don't have the time for it. Maybe few casual games just to laugh my head off but that's it. More interested in SP as I can just play the game at my own pace, and obviously the replayability is an important factor.
Commander said:As for Shinnok, nah, I don’t want to see him on the roster for MK11.
I’m glad that Cassie is in (seemingly), and I hope that a few more debuts from X make it, but I also hope that we get 2 or 3 from the 3D era.

By the way, I think I start to see your point regarding the boring character designs and realms. Skarlet's primary can be easily be given to Sonya or Cassie and they'll still look exactly like an ISIS suicide bomber. Spoiled Kitana looks like a cosplayer from Earthrealm too. The only one who looks alien is Rain because who the hell is going to wear THAT? :lol: I think that's the problem. They are playing way too safe. Edenians are fcking 10,000 yo aliens and is known for its "beauty". Outworld is a barren wasteland, so far only Baraka and Shao Kahn represent it correclty. We need someone like Havik ffs, guy just screams Chaosrealm.
Wait, so why hasn't the front page of this site been updated in like 4 years lol
Geras I feel is fine as his aesthetic does match up with Kronika's atleast so you can tell they are of the same stuff, if she has blue blood like he does I guess you could also throw that in as a defining physical trait (if they are even from a specific realm, who knows they could be in a pocket dimension or something). And I'll admit I feel like the "everyone looks the same" comment doesn't really make sense, especially when you have a fangled tooth cannibal on the same roster as a military general.
Yeah that's the problem. We have one character that really stands out. Because his face is completely different. Tell me what's the difference between Sonya or Skarlet? They both look like they are from Earthrealm. Sub Zeo and Scorpion start looking like they belong in the same clan. Raiden is basically... an armored Shaolin monk.
