I don't know if someone already said this but, the (or one of the) reason(s) they went with Freddy is because NRS are now owned by WB, who was the biggest distributor of (at least) the last NoES movie. They wanted NRS to include a WB character and so it became Freddy because, out of all WB owned property, he probably fits the gory bill best.
I could not be more stoked to get my hands on him in August because I am both a fan of MK since the very first game, and a huge horror fan and I think Freddy is a perfect, albeit kind of weird, guest character for the new MK. If they had put him in the game when MK1 or MK2 came out, everyone would've lost their shit. In a good way. He just seems far fetched to some people and I can understand that, but honestly, I'd much, much rather see him in a MK game than ANY of the uninspired, ridiculous and oft retarded characters from MK5 and up.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: a lot of you guys seem incredibly spoiled and seem to never be happy unless you get exactly what you want/expect. They already made a 2D Mortal Kombat game with all of the old school characters, gore and Fatalities, just like everyone asked and yet there are still people out there who can't take some creative decision-making on NRS's part because they would've preferred another ninja, masked or unmasked. Make a better game or don't play and shut up.
That said, I know there are people who have genuine reasons not to like this decision or any of the others NRS have made and to them I can only say that I don't agree, but I do respect your opinion, as long as your explanation is well-constructed and your reasoning isn't purely selfish. Hell, there's things about MK I don't really like or would've done very different, but I don't really care because it's not my game and you can never, ever make everyone happy anyway. I just appreciate what I do have and you can totally tell this game is made with love, for all of us gamers and MK fans out there.
Freddy rules!!
