I know nothing about Vixen other than she can mimic animal abilities or something... Not sure why she is called "female fox" when it's not just fox abilities...

In American culture, a vixen is a very attractive and seductive woman. Have you ever heard old American tv shows where sexy women are called "foxes" or a "foxy lady".

I don't know where it came from. Probably old Fox hunts. Where a fox is considered a prize, or a catch.

I'm one of the people that aren't too thrilled about this. It's a huge waste of Vixen's potential. Her abilities warrant her having her own spot and there are plenty of other animal abilities she can mimic aside from wildcats.

Welp. Looks like that's going out the window for Beast Boy instead.

That's if NRS has no problem implementing him properly. Because changing Beast Boy's model into an animal in midfight probably would be an issue in 3D due to needing to have all the models loaded and it being difficult to animate and such. This was why Shang Tsung couldn't morph into his opponents in the 3D MK games and was limited to only changing into the character he was fighting against in MK9. Because their data was already in RAM and he can simply draw from that.

I don't think it would be as complicated as MK9 though. Shang Tsung didn't just load a 3d model, he would have to load a whole new inner Xray model, rigging, move set with the props/effects, fatalities & voice lines.

Beast Boy would just need to load 120 frames of an elephant running.

No need for rude name-calling. Can't you be part of a discussion without it?

Spoiler:
Zsasz is an important plotpoint in the comics, as he is the one who kills Alfred. And yet Damian killed him in the very first chapter of I2 which was supposed to be the same scene where he accidentally kills Nightwing.


No, he's no Nightwing indeed, but it still makes a huge shift in the canon lore. And if NRS are indeed trying to avoid NPC's like that, then they would have to retcon tons more, if they continue to make flashbacks to scenes happening in the comics.

I see where you're coming from.
That said, if Goro's comic story about him getting his arms ripped off was ignored in MKX and the "Reiko accords" were barely mentioned in passing from Raiden to Bo Rai Cho, then this doesn't really surprise me.

Spoiler:
I wonder if that's his sword bei g changed by gear into a staff or this is straight up NPC horseshit.

Spoiler:
Seems like NPC horseshit to me. His entire moveset was directly taken from Nightwing in IGAU when in staff mode, no traces of anything Robin does.
 
I was kinda skeptical about the whole premier skins at first when they announced them back at E3, but I think they're sick. I think there's an answer somewhere around, but did they confirm gear sets for premier skins as well? I'm not feeling the whole pants things on Power Girl lol.

Premier skins get no gear.
