My guy, you can miss me with that bull shit. Im not denying MK2 kontribution for making the games what they are today. MK2 has been forced down peoples throats for decades so of course most those kharacters would be more recognizable to the kasual audience. You are just piggy banking off Ed Boon philosophy, he is the one that caused the division amongs the kommunity in the first place. Take for an example Kenshi, his popularity is not natural at all. Im not denyning he has his fan base but you cant argue he has only been in soo many games recently because Ed Boon has a weird fetish for him, no other 3d era kharacter has gotten as many opportunities as him and its evidence.
The gore, violence, stories & lore is what made the franchise popular so once again you are wrong. I find it so ironic you call it goofy for requesting 3D era kharacters but yet you have a 3D era kharacter as you're avi lol. Its a reason why so many people are requesting 3D era kharacters. Has it ever occurred that maybe MK 2 Kast is not as popular what you think? Scorpion & Subzero is what i considered staples, they should be in no matter what. Kitana, Liu, Raiden are subjective n you could argue if they're staples or not
Jax, Cage, Sonya, Mileena, Kung Lao tho? Nah they dont need to be in every game, they are pushed too fucking hard. Nobody is asking for them or dying to see them komeback except for kasuals or people who main them.
I'm talking about konquest mode, WB is so dumb they didnt capitalize off its potential, and look at em now, SF took it and ran with it. Its all $$$$ when it comes to WB, they dont give a fuck about MK in the slightest, WB logic is AAA graphics, celeb voice overs, guest kharacters, cinematic trailers=good game. As i said before and I will say this again. WB is trying to appease the kasaul audience because they make up majority, all of these youtubers like truedawgs, dynasty, brukestpoet to some extinct are all shills of course they are going to listen to them because they have a platform.
