Well, we don't know the number of chapters. Could be 16 like MK9. Remember, MKvsDCU also had 15 chapters total.
About the characters getting chapters, I agree with all of them except for Kano and Erron Black. I do hope they give us a villain chapter (besides Kotal), but I'm not holding my breath.
Also, if anyone's getting repeat chapters, I doubt it's Kotal. I'd say it's either Sub-Zero or Scorpion.
As we can see from the difference between MK9 and Injustice, quality storytelling eats up time. Injustice had more set-up for fights, and fewer filler fights as a result, but that also meant less chapters. I don't think they'll be going back to the MK9 way of doing things now that they've done Injustice and come closer to perfecting their storytelling. If anything, I'd expect MKX to be even more cinematic. And we know the game isn't much (any?) longer than Injustice. The only way it has more fights, IMO, is if some chapters only get 3 instead of 4.
Looking at Injustice, we got a chance to play as Joker, Lex Luthor, and Deathstroke. This actually translates perfectly into MKX - Kano is an out-and-out psychopath like Joker, Kotal Kahn is someone you'd expect to be a villain, but isn't, like alternate Lex Luthor, and Erron Black is a bad-ass mercenary who fights for the good guys... just like alternate Deathstroke.About the characters getting chapters, I agree with all of them except for Kano and Erron Black. I do hope they give us a villain chapter (besides Kotal), but I'm not holding my breath.
Apart from that, Erron feels like the sort of new character NRS would want to show off with a chapter. And Kano... I find it absurd that he's the only legit Black Dragon character in the game to begin with, but if he's not even playable in a chapter, then there are literally going to be 5 guys who join Black Dragon on the game's release. There's no way. There's just no way.
I'm putting my foot down, NRS. I ain't playing around.
In order of likelihood, IMO: Scorpion, Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero, Kotal Kahn, Cassie Cage. Nobody else has a chance.Also, if anyone's getting repeat chapters, I doubt it's Kotal. I'd say it's either Sub-Zero or Scorpion.
First of all, no. (coming from someone who beat FF5/7/8/9/10)
Second of all, you live in a post-Dragon Age: Inquisition world. DA:I is like ten times better than DA1 and DA2 combined.
Anyway, Mass Effect is higher priority. I'm glad you recognize that.
No, I mean Paragon and Renegade interrupts. Which work pretty much exactly how MKX QTEs work, from what we've seen.
Seeing the new ratio of cutscenes to gameplay and the amount of ground that was covered in the first chapter alone, I'm expecting about 12 chapters, 14 max.
Characters most likely to get a chapter: Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Raiden, Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Kenshi, Cassie, Jacqui, Takeda, Kung Jin, Erron Black, Kotal Kahn
