Am I the only one who doesn't like any of the new characters??

Usually, I've been doing a great job just not even caring to respond, but this time I'll do it, I'll cave in. Just. For. You. :-*

Because Icebaby, (it is so hard to see? geez)

Not sure why you need to keep calling me this when the entire site already knows this. They knew that I'm this user before you decided to join after getting banned twice on MKO. So if this is intended as an insult, I really don't know how it's supposed to hurt me. But it's whatever, keep calling me that if it makes you feel better.

And many people dislike the though of descendants, more Special Forces and human characters, and with that being in the game pretty much overbalanced, no wonder people complain about 4 of the 8 new characters.

And many people have even admitted that some have started to "grow" on them. At least people are giving these characters an actual try unlike people like you. Who, instead of actually giving them a chance, they feel the need to constantly complain about them in ever single thread that they're being mentioned. This game doesn't need to cave to every single person, I get that. But if you're not even going to give this game a try, is there really a point to this complaint? I really don't see one.

People have the right to like and dislike whatever they want to, that's a given and it should be respected. But to those who are automatically assuming that the characters are going to suck, be low tier, be characters that aren't going to be cared as much as the others, then it's laughable. It's laughable because they're making it seem like it's going to be true when it's obviously not. You shouldn't judge what you haven't touched yet. This was literally the reasoning behind my post. If it has bothered people, oh well. At least I got a point across.

But please stop speaking for people, seriously please. Their reasoning for not liking something differs greatly from yours. Them being humans are not a reason I see across these forums, just from you. If you really hate playing as a human character, then play as Reptile.

1) from special forces

As far as we know, there's two new from Special Forces: Cassie and Jacqui. Takeda and Kung most likely are just helping them, since clearly they don't look militarized at all.

Then you have Sonya, Jax, Johnny and Kenshi. So that's six. Did anyone complain when we were bombarded with many Edenian characters?

You have: Sindel, Kitana, Mileena, Jade, and Rain all in one game. (Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3) And then, we have another added in the fourth, which is Tanya. So that's six. I don't recall hearing or reading people complaining about how there's too many of something when we have already a bundle of other characters.

But they're all humans, so it bothers you... Whatever that means.

2) descendants

Not sure why this would bother people, I think this was the one thing after E3 that got people extremely curious with the game itself. That we're going to be seeing the children of our beloved characters. Despite that some went a little weird with stories on who should be the next couple to produce a kid, still. If this bothers people, then honestly, stop following the forums then.

3) Still have their parents fighting with them in the game.

Three parents, I'm counting Johnny and Sonya as one, Jax as two, and Kenshi as three. There's three parents in this game. Johnny and Sonya are a given since they were obviously the last heroes left alive at the end of 2011. Killing them off or leaving them alone for this game would be incredibly stupid. I'm glad that they're actually going to show us the passing of the torch with them to Cassie.

Jax, honestly I was surprised to see him but it's really whatever.

Kenshi, after seeing what his son has gone through in the comics, I really want to see the interaction between these two if there is one in the game.


That is asking for trouble

That is your opinion, not everyone else's.


and then cut everything about Jacqui and give a evil character a descendant instead.

I don't get this part. You were previously complaining that it's a bad thing that there's descendants in this game and here you are giving a character a kid. What is it? Are you upset that there are children in this game or upset that the children that arrive came from characters YOU don't care for?



It's not a problem for people to not like characters. I didn't like Cassie as much as I did with the other new characters, but she has started to grow on me with what we've seen her in previous streams and such. I've seen people who admitted why they don't care for such and such and their reasonings look legit. Some aren't impressed by what they have seen in game play footage, even if it's from footage that poorly shows us stuff. OR, they just downright have not been impressed by them at all. Whether it's Cassie or D'Vorah, Ferra/Torr, whoever, some reasonings are legit. But to sit here and constantly read: "They're gonna be forgotten in the next game," "They're gonna be played the less online," "They're gonna suck in general," then that's just downright dumb. It might sound rude, but really... you should at least give the game a try, and if you really hate it, then trade it in. At least you'll get your money back... or some of it.

And to those who keep saying, "I'm not gonna play as them," we know you will. :-P

If you read my other post AT ALL, you see i'm talking about WHY I understand MANY people dislike the new characters, not that I dislike them myself, I just dislike everything related to Jax, so Jacqui is the only NEW character I dislike, I have more problems with 2 of the parents being in the game, blonde Sonya (which destroys Cassie for me) and Jax, which I always hated and not because he's black, but because he's bland.

But whatever, you probably get many likes for that post from the boyz. Yawns @ all the Boon Bodyguards.

I think I just met the human on this earth with the least amount of empathy. Geez
 
Those who hate the new characters as a whole can be counted on one hand on this forum at least. Very small minority. Same with those who dislike the many human characters shown in this game.

You know, I was going to have a legit conversation with you until I read this crap. I don't get it, at times, it looks like you're really trying to hold a conversation that could go somewhere, but then you retreat back to your normal self and say stupid things like this. I'm not going to reply to you anymore if you're just gonna keep retaliating to your MKO-self and just be like this.

If you want to know why "the boyz" like me here, it has absolutely nothing about being a woman behind this account. (Not sure why that would bother you since you've said you're one) It's because I'm nice to people. People like it when other people are nice to others. I was taught that by my parents, teachers, friends, relatives, and so on. When you respect people, they respect you back. This isn't a hard concept to understand and if it is, then holy moly...

You can dislike any character however you want (even though I'll laugh at it if it's one that I've used as an example in my previous post). The only problem is that I don't think you understand why others dislike who they dislike because all I keep seeing from you is the same stuff and posts that have lead to your first ban here. And this isn't trying to become rude or whatever, it's literally that I don't see your point in how you can see other people's reasonings behind why they dislike characters. I just don't.
 
The only new Kharakter i don't really like till now
is Kung Jin. Don't know why... but i really hate Archer
dudes. And im a bit dissapointed that the weapon we
saw turned out to be a bow, not a scythe. :???:
MK needs a Zasalamel rip-off!
 
Cassie plays nothing like Sonya and gameplay is the most important feature to me. It is very ridiculous to whine about both characters being blonde - if hair colour is that important to you, then you shouldn't ignore the fact that their hair styles are completely different. I think we should start to whine about how many black-haired females are in MK9.
 
Yeah give her long hair and huge tits like all of the chicks in MK9

I like that they have diversity in MKX.

Kitana and mileena both had long hair??(never use the word" all"in a discussion)

Noo you're misunderstanding me.
I'm actually in the middle with this whole "slutty character" thing .I don't care how big the boobs are.Just give them physics ..that's all I'm asking for.

You don't think it's strange to see female characters jump around and move but somehow their boobs stay in place like its cement??


No,I don't think ALL females should have the same model lol come on guy I never said that ...

So far it SEEMS like they have metal tits.

I just don't want them all to look the same and not have breast physics.Thats my only gripe about the game and it's a minor one.


"Hereeeee's JOHNNY!!!!"

I agree with the whole post, [MENTION=16500]Kitty_55[/MENTION].

I just quoted this specific part, though, because I also hear the common complaint (on various other gaming sites like IGN, Gamespot, FB and just generally online) that people have with Sonya and Johnny being in due to the fact that "ZOMG!!! CASSIE CAN'T DO FATALITIES ON HER MOTHER AND FATHER!" and vice versa.
I'm not saying that Sonya Bland has said ever specifically this, but I'm just pointing out another common complaint with those 2 being in.

To those specific folks:

First, Ed Boon has been saying that Cassie can do Fatalities on relatives since E3 2014, and more specifically the E3 GiantBomb interview, so I don't know where the shock is in all of this.

Secondly, MK9 had Sindel, Kitana, Mileena and Shao Kahn killing each other.
Now, I know that someone will retort with "But Sindel and Mileena were evil in MK9," to which my reply is:
Sindel turned good in the old timeline, and she was still able to kill her own daughter (Kitana) with Fatalities.
Not only that, but let's not forget that just because your parent somehow turns evil (or "bad"), doesn't mean or imply that it's suddenly OK to kill them off, and most people probably wouldn't, either.
 
No, but MKO contains an absolute cesspool of users with shitty attitudes, I figured it takes a LOT to get banned there.

Me: *stands up* Hey, my name is theincubuslord, and I was a banned MKO user.

Others: Hey theincubuslord.

Me: I've been abstinent for half a year now.

Others: *claps*

Me: Thank you, thanks all. Couldn't have done it without you.

How the hell did you get banned there?

Final note, I hear Mods there get ban happy if you're dissatisfied with the smallest thing that has to do with them. Is that true?

Bingo.

...

Can't wait to see Takeda in the stream tonight (tonight for me). If the "whips" part isn't Takeda, I dunno who it would be. If they reveal a new character with a whip, that would be interesting too, though I find that unlikely. The whip is my favourite weapon of all, so to see someone use a whip in MK would be awesome to me! And I find it kinda interesting that Takeda has a whip-like weapon. Mixed with his Metal Gear/Ninja Gaiden looks, he's slowly worming his way up to be my favourite of the new characters.
