Mortal Kombat 1 General Discussion Media Thread

I'm happy to see Reptile even though i'm not really sold on his voice, he's my favourite MK character. I can't help but feel that the Lizard half was probably intended to be Killer Croc for Injustice 3 x)

Yeah. Exactly what I was getting at.
Lizard / dinosaur / crocodile looking part is what seemed “off” to me as well.
I’m sure that I’ll get used to it after a while, but still seems a bit weird to me.
 
Seeing how Reptile has green blood, I'm getting the feeling that he, like D'Vorah in MK11 before him, will end up being the unfortunate victim in the inevitable Fatality/Brutality/Fatal Blow compilations on Youtube.
 
MK9 Reptile is still top. Really hate what they've done to him and my expectations were as low as they could get.

Havik however looks interesting.
 
As cool as Reptile looks in this game IMO, Havik and Sareena/Demon stole the show. Ashrah looks like a star trek character but her Fatality was awesome. It would be cool to see Noob/smoke make a return but I'm not holding my breathe.
 
Just saw chapter 3 Kitana from Mortal Kombat: Onslaught on youtube.

Hopefully we'll see Noob Saibot help Kitana.

Looks like Mortal Kombat: Onslaught is a 3rd timeline in the Mortal Kombat saga.

1992: OG timeline
2011: 2nd timeline
2023: 3rd timeline (Mortal Kombat: Onslaught)
2023: 4th timeline (Mortal Kombat 1)

OG timeline for example had Millena cloned as a baby to grow up with Kitana as if they're twins.

2nd and 3rd timeline has Kitana cloned as an adult

4th timeline has both as biological sisters.

So does this also mean that Jerrod and Sindel conquered Outworld in the 4th timeline and General Shao is like a General Kotal trying to rebel?

MK9 Reptile is still top. Really hate what they've done to him and my expectations were as low as they could get.

Havik however looks interesting.

This Reptile is like the Reptile from the original timeline. Meaning that he disguises himself as a human (wonder if Shang Tsung taught him this).

EDIT:

Speaking of Takeda being from MKX as DLC. Could the story line be that Quan Chi from the MXK time line took himself, Ermac, Takeda, and so forth to this "battle of the time lines" thing known as Mortal1Kombat just because or maybe to get Shinnok's amulet again or something.

So basically entire thing is the bare minimum from artistic view.
Human reptile looks like someone came from a boy band, and as for his.. lizard form. That's a default lizard model, that was morphed a bit to look more bipedal.
Havik doesn't generate the same wickedness, as he did in 3D Era. His entire presentation here is that he can tear off his limbs and grow them back. 3D Era Havik twisted his entire body in representation of chaos. His movement had that crazy sensation about it, that made him look creepy and cool at the same time. But this new iteration looks more like it is pretending.
Sareena.. is eh. An afterthought. Her demon look is the most generic one you find, so effort wasn't put into her.
Yeah, I finally see what was off for me with this entire game's look. It is sanitized, clean, doesn't take any chances. All of the characters share the same feeling.
The core, the heart, the roughness and the very brutality theme has been removed. Now it is just a mimicry of what once was.

By the Goddesses of Gaming, I hope there will be a reveal of the game mode by next week...

What "original timeline"?

And how is this a "disguise"? The nerd just does a switcharoo and then Killer Croc from Injustice 3 appears. No sorry I mean Derptile from 2021 Movie.... who pretty much everyone hated.

If Reptile would morph like this:

Then it would've been great. But you see, this is Unreal 4 engine, and the person doing this gives a fuck.

It's better than that. They've just yoinked a fan design:

The most 4 years of hardcore AAA development.

You know... I genuinely miss the times, when I was the low standard. The days, when it didn't feel like, I could make anything better by just putting A LITTLE more effort. Cause holy shit, one must suck if someone like ME, can beat them.
Not only they put no effort in making her demon form look anything unique or interesting, but now apparently, they can't muster ANY creative juice and just have to look for fan arts. And STILL end up with a more generic look.

Her demon form looks like it belongs in DC universe. Give me 10 minutes and I could cook up a better design from top of my head.

Bloody Furia... no standards left.
 
I'm kinda disappointed of Havik, formely great schemer, menacing Cleric of Chaos became a common jobber, according to bio he is for 99% just Dairou gone insane, rest of his biography is stolen from Darrius.

He should be in league of Shang Tsung and Quan Chi.

"Havik is an anarchist rebel from the oppressive realm of Seido, intent on taking down his world’s regime"

Oh, and since Sareena kameo leak was true, the last kameos to be revealed (I consider Motaro already confirmed) are Cyber Smoke and Drahmin.

I tried to email you regarding fanart but the email never went through. In fact it got kicked back...
 
My thoughts:
Reptile looks cool, but I wish he had a similar design to his MKX one
Not a fan of Havik's design
Ashrah looks dope

I still consider MKX Reptile with his klassic outfit as the best design IMO.
 
The best trailer they've shown yet and you mfs still find ways to be miserable.

My apologies, Sir. I didn't mean to cause you discomfort by having standards and a healthy dose of self respect. I didn't mean to offend your honor as a blind consumer, who is completely fine with rewarding a corporation with scummy practices, just because it is incredibly easy to impress you with a bare minimum.

In the near future, I will make sure to avoid creating an unpleasant environment for you, while exposing a harsh truth, that this stagnant, soulless, corporate dead horse cash grab, that you call a " video game" isn't worth the money and is designed to just milk nostalgia starving people dry of their money with brand recognition.

My sincerest apologies,
A miserable citizen with self respect.

Keep your apology shorter next time, but apology accepted.
