Mortal Kombat 11 General Discussion Media Thread

Very stellar presentation. Kabal looked interesting for once and I'm very happy to see Dvorah. Kinda bummed they wasted time on Geras (the most boring character so far). But whatever. Still hyped. Hopefully Kotal comes back.

They added 4 additional stage slots from the reveal build. Current stage count is 21!

They also moved Geras from the bottom select panel on the select screen. Wonder if it's reserved for Kahn.

This is great. If only they would add more slot to the roster
 
I'm doing myself a favor this time around and avoiding most of the media for the game. For MKX I watched all the Kombat Kasts and whatnot, but when I got the game, I felt like I had seen it all already.

The release is close enough this time that Im just going to go into 11 as blind as possible. Outside of seeing which characters are in.

I want to do this too but i don't know if i have the will haha
 
I'm glad that D'Vorah's back, because aside from her looking more horrifying / disgusting (in an cool MK character type of way), this also means that with her and Cassie being in that NRS isn't just dismissing the rest of the 8 MKX characters.
D'Vorah was down at around #19 on the character usage list for most of the months on PS4, so I'm glad that they're giving her another chance to shine in MK11.
 
Kabal seems like he's going to be really good though. He already has 2 specials that he can meterlessly combo from. Flawless block is uselss for Kabal since he can just parry and get a free combo without having to use offense or defense meter. Not even Scorpion's spear combos without meter anymore, but Kabal can still dash from full screen and get some damage.

I'm loving it. His EX cloud looks really good too. Since you can't jump out of it, you either have to sit there and take the Damage Over Time, or try to disrespect him and risk getting parried.
 
That Kabal fatality is a Kabal fatality. That was beautiful.

I tried sneaking at the kast as much as I could at work without letting my students know what was up. I had to cover my mouth because I thought I left a f-bomb drop.

Whoops. :rofl:

I'm also glad to see D'Vorah return.
 
My obs about today, couldn't comment real time, little sick these days:

1. Is it me or they put MK9 Kabal's VA into Scorpion and gave MK11 Kabal who looks like the VA for the Flash on I2?;

2. That is some publicity stunt because apparently they have given Kabal super speed? (I mean, like DC, notice his fatality he's doing almost what Flash does);

3. Kombat Kast is better organized, still, it's too boring to see them talking over and over. But I'm glad they put more effort to deliver something better, I hope they keep going;

4. Still, no reveal every KK. I would be happy to know before, cause I tire of watching Tyler vs Derek and etc., we'v talked here how it's absolutely possible to have reveals;

5. Was expecting Kano lol;

6. Wasn't expecting D'vorah? She looks sick. And disgusting. She looks more in her own nature than before. Please do come back with that voice of hers lol. Also, I wonder what goes with her now that the Brotherhood of Shadow is no more, unless they are taking her from the past, which raises my question again: are Elder Gods in time?;

7. Speaking about time, have you guys been paying attention to what the hell Geras can do?! He can literally go back in time (game mechanics of course) in a fight. I wonder what Kronika is able to do!;

8. I think Derek gave us a little glimpse that she can add time to the rounds. They were not talking about her iirc, but you know Derek. Lucky me I play with no time, guess I'll have my ass whooped by her other 93210389210 time abilities :) ;

9."Her": Probably Kitana, because they have already shown her, so remember they are always predictable about characters teased than big surprises. Still, wouldn't be surprised if Derek shoved Mileena up my ass;

10. If what BBBLP says about that being MK3 Kabal, and for that evil Kabal, even though I think he's more of a weirdo on the good guys side, I missed bad Kabal too;

11. He plays very nice, they put a good work on him and I'm glad they didn't want him to be the hard to learn character, but one con about him is that I think they tried to rationalize his powers. He's supposed to be a weirdo nonsensical OP character. The buzzsaw doesn't make sense, the laser neither, and that it. Creative that they made the buzzsaw as his hooks. Still, nothing that destroys the character, just some small obs.
 
Considering how different Kabal is from his MK9 counterpart, this is why I'm mine with pretty much whichever MK character as long as they end up being interesting within the game. I especially like it when they streamline movesets for classic characters like they did for Kabal, as I always thought his list of moves was just flat out bizarre. Or MKX had Kano who I liked much better in that game than in MK9 where I didn't care for him at all. Which is weird because I really like playing him in MK1 and MK3.

That's also why I really want to see Reptile in this game. As he's a character that no one agrees on what he should look like. So he'd really benefit from the customization system the game has. Kabal showed that with the different looking burns and even non-burned skin. That way we could potentially have the "human" reptile and the reptilian reptile. Which would be amazing because I wouldn't have to hear people argue about it every time he's brought up.

Dvorah was received well and liked by fans. She was #19 because it was hard to use her. On the other hand the others like Jacqui was not liked by many
 
Ed said there are a lot of characters returning like Kabal and Baraka so this is very good news for me because we can't expect a lot of old characters we have not seen in a while
 
Grats BBBLP, Kabal looks pretty sick. Which almost makes me wonder if you don't like him now, because to me his design makes sense for the first time ever.

That Fatal Blow hooksword beatdown was nuts.

Kotal Kahn went from #18 to #10 and he wasn’t the easiest character to use, either, so that makes no sense.
Jacqui was usually disliked by people who couldn’t beat the Full-Auto variation “spam,” but the rest usually seemed to be indifferent towards her.
Aesthetically her costume could have been better, though.
