Sure, but I was just using DOA as a point of reference.

I think that NRS did a wonderful job with all the models with MKX (not just female).
Sonya doesn't look sleazy and actually looks like a military woman, Kitana looks more respectable, D'Vorah looks awesome, Mileena looks good, Kung Lao and Liu Kang don't look like they belong in Mr. Universe and all 'roided up.
The characters have different body types and heights.
Just an all around good job with the characters in MKX.
I dunno, though.

Hard to disagree with this.

Maybe I just have more of an appreciation for these things and don't jerk off to digital tits.

The thing with this argument is that Mortal Kombat was never about sex being a major selling point, in it's roots.
The roots of MK and major selling points were always in fighting, gore and some humor thrown in, but it never used sex as a major selling point until MK9.
Yeah, some of the previous outfits in the 3D era were a bit skimpy, but MK9 brought it to a whole other level that people don't care to see MK go in.
People don't want to see MK being turned into DOA.
Plain and simple.

The outfits in MK3 showed a lot of cleavage and skin.

I don't want to speak on DOA too much because I've never even played it. Correct me if I'm wrong but that's the game where the girls fight on the beach in bikinis, right? If so, Mortal Kombat would never turn into that. That game seems incredibly goofy and lacks the serious factor that Mortal Kombat has based on looks alone. Mileena and Kitana were dressed in revealing outfits in the previous game but I don't think their ability to kill someone, male or female, in the most brutal of ways was ever doubted.

Don't get me wrong; I don't think every single character in the franchise has to have huge breasts. I can appreciate variety. I'm just stating what I like and what others may like as well. I agree: violence and darkly comical aspects were big parts of the franchise's success but not the only things that should be given credit. I do think the sexiness of the female characters was a huge selling point of previous games. I remember talking with a guy years ago at a gathering my buddy was having in Toronto and we played Deception. One of the things he said was, "I only play this game for the thick with red hair." Two of the friends he was with even co-signed him. He was speaking in regards to Kira, someone who isn't even a popular character. It may sound stupid to some but again, people like what they like.

I can respect the fact that Jacqui and Cassie aren't dressed skimpy because they are military personnel. I know lots of people had an issue with Sonya's past outfits for being skimpy and I get it, it makes sense. There's a dress code in the military, no matter the branch. When it comes to Edenians, Outworlders, denizens of the Netherrealm, and anything else, though, there should be freedom of imagination with that because they are not human and a direct product of the game, meaning the possibilities really are limitless.
 
There's this team of people on deviant art who've taken some of the models in MKX and made them available for use:

Amongst them are Tanya's old and new model.

lol at the saturation levels on her old model. Almost looks lifeless :/

the new model has a better nose, hair, makeup and a better everything really.
 
So you can use those models in Source Filmmaker to make cool images like this?

I<3 Tanya. Would have been blasphemous a few weeks back, but this chick is the bees knees. I've complete faith in NRS to recreate the 3d era losers. Bring on Dairou, Jarek and Meat. I know they'll work their magic.


And that Tanya fanart is terrible. Looks like he took a picture of a black girl and scribbled crayons all over it. But it's okay for me to say that, because he has me on ignore.

What variation do you like best? I like Najinata, but I'm still trying to properly do the JiP - Pogo - JiP - Pogo.
 
What's the point of doing that? I just jip f2 so I can hit confirm it.

My bnb is f2xxdf3,d2-f2,d2-f2,jip,2,u3-running 3,4xxdb4

Nice meterless 35%
 
Dude, I remember the Impractical Day 1 Jump in combos :rofl:

It was like J1 (mash) D2, F2, J2, Mash (D2) and other bullshit, but it was hard as funk to do. In Dragon Naginata of course..
