Fatalities or Victory pose?

Am I the only person that doesn't do fatalities? I've done them all, seen them all, and frankly don't want to do them. People also leave whenever you do them. I'd rather see the victory pose and get on to the next match instead of seeing the same fatalities. Does anybody else have this mentality?
 
I don't. I'll do em everytime cause i play over 20 of the characters well. So it's hardly me contantly doing the se thing.
 
I usually do babalities because I know the person I beat is crying like a baby at their loss.

=)
 
I like vic poses because some are pretty funny, but some are lame (Sub-Zero). If I beat a scrub online though, I have the mentality that they don't deserve to be fatalitied, so high punch to the face for them.
 
Ehh. I almost never do fatalities and since Sektor is my main, I'm getting pretty tired of seeing them myself.
But when I play with Jade...... WIN POSE WIN POSE WIN POSE. :)
 
I'm right there with you,

1. Fatality's take too long.
2. The amount of gore makes me uncomfortable.
3. They just don't feel like they used to in MK1 - UMK3, for some reason fatalities in 2D were a lot cooler, and a lot more satisfying.
4. I like the victory pose of my Main, Smoke
 
I only do a Toasty when I feel like I have earned it, otherwise its best to just start the next match and not look like a dick. It isn't that big an accomplishment to learn a 4 character string and input it before your 10 second timer runs out.
 
Personally I like the fatalities because it gives a sense of humliation to the oppenent your playing. Espcially if your oppenent is spamming ike a lil *****.
 
I will do a fatality when Im playing offline. Online I simply dont bother. I dont have a great win/loss record so I dont win most matches anyhow but when I finally do win, I really dont feel like rubbing it in with a fatality. I just stand there.
 
The only time I do fatalities is if they piss me off. For example I was waiting my turn in KOTH and this jacknob did a fatality every time he won. I was going to shrink his ass, but luckily we ended up on the Pit. Surely he got the dreaded uppercut.
 
MK IS all about doing fatalities, but I get it that you are bored with them after a while and yes some do suck incredibly hard or are inspirational but since all chars have 2-3 fatals and a babality and stage kill it's hardly getting repetitive. Seeing the one and only victory pose of the same char over and over IS. Fact: every char needs more opening lines and victory poses, (like the ones from challenge tower, they are great) cuz that's what annoyed me the most since the demo, but (maybe) we'll see more fatals as dlc in the future before some victory pose dlc anyday soon I'm afraid cuz I think fatalities (what the MK series became famous for) will have more succes than some pose, but hoping is not a crime and I for one defenitely wouldn't mind:)

BTW why are you playing MK if you don't like gore? :) (it's fighting mechs I pressume, it's just the most awesome beat 'em up there is, gore or not lol) Not to diss you my friend but that is just like saying I don't use grenades in CoD cuz the loud bangs make me uncomfy, but it's one of the best shooters out there. (offline though, online is a mess, like 90 percent of online games these days)
 
Victory pose, fatality takes too long. I am wondering why NRS did not want to add the alternate victory pose from Test Your Luck to standar modes. These are really well done! Nothing to complain about.
 
I always go for the victory pose, unless it was one of the many Kung Laos, Scorpions or Ermacs in which case it's a fatality all day long. I still need to see some of the fatalities, I refuse to see them until they come up in the game.
