Is Ed Boon sure he's doing the right thing?

We need to revive the tradition of new ninjas.

Or what? We'll die? Please, no more rainbow ninjas. Need implies necessity, and there is none. The 'tradition of new ninjas' was just a conceit for low memory on old hardware. Think about it, the less characters look like ninjas, the less you need to correct anybody on who actually IS or ISN'T really a ninja. It's your opinion, man. If you want the power rangers to be in every Mortal Kombat, there's LOADS of existing games that will do that for you. But no, we don't all NEED half the cast to look like a menacing bag of skittles with their mouths covered. I'm an old school MK fan too, but that is not on my wish list.
 
Haha wow, so he wants more of those throwaway rainbow ninjas but refuses to see brand new characters that actually have interesting character designs and meaningful plotlines, now that's just rich. :)
 
Some of you REALLY wish that MK HD collection was made... MKX is a new generation of characters for a new generation of players. The games most of you seem to want have already been made. While you guys argue about whether or not Ed Boon has it "right", I'm sitting over here feeling like the kid I was during the 90's as new MKX stuff comes out.

Besides, they're doing something right when the announcement trailer has over 9.5 million views, while the MK9 trailer doesn't even have 1 million. We'll see how that translates upon release.

Based on how she's dressed or do you know what she does on her free time?

Not only her attire but also her demeanor. Even her Round 1 win pose (I think she touches her boobs and says something like "was it good for you" in a seductive manner) is a dead giveaway.

Logged in just to thank you for this post. Couldn't have said this better myself. I don't know how you can question if he's "doing the right thing" when this game is generating more buzz, excitement, and positive articles than any previous iteration.
 
If Tarkatan Trash was making MK X:

I think it will because my local Gamestop said that pre orders for MKX are through the roof and already blew away the total number of pre orders for MK9

I agree with the op. People saying oh but tekken 3 had all new characters though. That was the THIRD TEKKEN. It was still new and hadn't had a base set of what was norm for it and the fanbase was still growing rapidly wasn't like they had been doing something for more than two decades and all of sudden threw you a curveball. MK has now been around longer than some of it's fans. This is the 10th game. Mk already has a set standard. Also look at every new character from MkDA on. They all somehow had some type of resemblance or something about them that you could compare them two someone else. Let's look at mk4. Fujin( if he isn't in MkX I'm not buying it) is a god comparable to Raiden they kinda look alike anyways. Shinnok is basically a non human/god version of Shang Tsung. Tanya wears clothing similar to kitana, jade, and milenna so no matter her moveset she looked the part. Let's look at MKDA. The most loved character Kenshi is a blind ninja swordsman. Fits perfectly into mk a different take on ninja but still fits in. Frost well just initially thought female subby. Easily fit in. Even Hsu Hao bad as he was fit in. A Asian evil cop looking guy. You could see from his looks he would be fighting jax. Only characters that look the part on MkX are Cassie and Kotal Kahn. Cassie is the best new one to me fits in perfectly if this is where there going in the future. Kotal Kahn also looks the part he's an evil god maybe a descendant to shinnok or something. But Ferra/torr and D'vorah are the worst mk characters I've ever seen. D'Vorah looks like she should be fighting Spider-Man gtf fack outta here. And Ferra/torr is just plain stupid it looks completely awkward and highly unattractive seeing then fight someone other than D'Vorah. Should have put them in injustice 2 not MKX. I think Torr may have been a pretty nice boss though if it wasn't for that retarded looking girl riding him.

She doesn't know any better. She's like a day or two old. Its not her fault. She's just trying to be friendly.
