How YOU feel about guests in MK

Does anyone know if Ash is owned by WB?


I wouldn't worry too much about this guys; MK was a sinking ship before this reboot, now that they have it back in the docks, they are just trying to "repair" some of the damage done by getting people interested in the game from other areas. I imagine (I hope) that MK10 will lack alot of guest characters.

I have no problem with Freddy, he just took me by surprise. Not expecting him until October.
 
It's silly, but I don't have to use them, so it's no big deal. I don't mind fighting them, since no matter who my opponent picks, the goal remains the same.
 
It really depends who, like that girl from heavenly sword, the one you play as would be cool, but lets just say mario.... that would be cool and funny but it just wont fit in!!!!!!!!!!
 
I don't like guest characters in MK, it's never happened before. Why does it have to happen now.

Think of it this way...if it wasn't for the guest characters there would be no more MK!!! WB bought a dying Midway and this is a trade off we have to accept. Personally, I think its kinda cool. However, if Midway was still around, this would never happen.

Enjoy MK, enjoy the guests, and enjoy the game!!!
 
Spend more time satisfying the true MK fans rather than a general audience.

It's not fair for the fans waiting for more classic DLC MK Characters. No more guests characters until after the game is pushed as far as it can go!

NRS c'mon guys I praised you for doing a good job in another post but this sh$!? Is ridiculous.
 
I'm cool with guest characters as long as they can fit into the game without it looking to weird. And although Freddy is a strange choice on NRS's part, I think he'll fit in just like everyone doubted Kratos. But hopefully we don't get anything from left field again; let's just hope it's someone we can all agree would fit fine in the game.

And just how is adding guest characters ruining MK? Last time I checked none of them were in the story mode and the arcade endings aren't canon.

it ruins the game in the essence that instead of getting a MK character, we are stuck with a guest character. MK fans play MK cuz they want MK. If i wanted to play Kratos I would play God of War, if I wanted Freddy Krueger I'd watch Nightmare on Elm street.
 
There are basically limitless slots for DLC and since there's more DLC on the way, Tanya and Reiko haven't necessarily been booted

It's not confirmed there'll be more characters. Boon said more DLC has to be sold for there to be a CHANCE of it.

I think there is a good chance we'll see another season of characters for the fall. Maybe even the winter if we're lucky.
 
I think guests in Mortal Kombat sucks. Kratos worked because he is awesome. He kills people, mythigical creatures, and Gods. Freddy just kills teenagers and some adults. Plus, they made Kratos perfect in this game because they used his God of War 3 model. Freddy never had a model and he is based off the re-boot of Freddy Krueger not the Robert Englund version. And two gloves! STUPID.

in an interview, Boon stated we wasn't going on a particular freddy(original vs remake) just freddy in general

Dont care, I think Kruger looks better than rain at least

I will say though all these "true fans" that arent downloading the compatibility pack just so they never see krueger are not really "true fans" because any TRUE fan of a video game will respect another persons choice of character whether it be a guest character or not(I believe people will main and GET PRETTY GOOD with krueger) so not allowing someone to play as their main DOES NOT make someone a "true fan". Thats my opinion..sorry:p

Wow. I completely agree with this. But, on the bright side, if they want to be douches and ruin for those that bought it, it's fine because I want to separate myself from them as much as possible. Hell, it may even make the game feel like it has a better community when I play.

*Edit*

OT: I don't mind guest characters if NRS does a good job on the and not just do a shoddy job for quick cash. The current ones have surprised me and I got faith.
 
i like guest characters, but only if theres like 3 or less. i just hope that there would be some sort of story telling us how and why characters like kratos and freddy make it to an mk game, not them just being there out of nothing for no reason.
 
Generally I don't mind guess characters but it depends who is the guest and what are the proportion between them and MKombatants. They would make sense when if there were at least 8 - 10 DLC chars but 1/4 is kind of waste of slot and time... I rate Freddy as 6/10 so far, cool and original fatalities, nice x-ray, mediocre gameplay and strange-looking face. I wonder how they did his vignette and ending - his a bit humorous character so his story readed by 'I-am-so-seriuos' MK9 lector would sound weird.
 
I'd rather have Mokap than any guest character. I swear.
You cant even understand how mad I am with Freddy.

Except for oh-so-scary Jason from those laughable Friday the 13 movies, there won't be any more DLC characters -- and most assuredly not any female ones.

Indeed. Yesterday was the worst day in MK history.
Any MK character would have been infinitely preferable over that ridiculous pedophile.
