Mortal Kombat 11 General Discussion Media Thread

I'm glad Kronika isn't taking up a spot. She really doesn't seem all that interesting, especially with Geras already having her powers.

I like having bosses not being playable because it gives them the edge of being mighty compared to everyone else. People also think the women from Jade's MK9 ending is Kronika. I doubt anyone from NRS still remembers or cares about that ending at this point.

That's not how game development works. Devs don't "forget" what they added. I can guarantee, that she was an early sketch of Kronika. Both the realm and entire description fit, Kronika way too good.

Especially this entire thing about "re-imagining Shao Kahn's death" It wasn't supposed to happen like this. Why? Cause Shao Kahn didn't die in original timeline.

To be fair devs are capable of forgetting certain story bits (especially minor ones) but in this case I do feel like that Kronika is the one they've been building up to in those endings as not only do the two endings coincide with each other, they also acknowledge Jade's absence as a revenant in X, something intentional that I def. feel like there are going to explain in 11.

As am I.
Kronika not being playable means better chances for another new MK11 character or 2, which is also be fine with.
 
I don't want to count her out just yet considering this isn't really a solid confirm (from the word of a dev or not), but I could honestly go either way with her, like I would be interested to play as her but at the same time yes it would free up a roster spot and also give us a boss that is allowed to be challenging without feeling like a playable character with a few added cheap moves.
 
I think Kronika is appearing to be much less than she is. The fact she is not playable and is considered to be "the only and big bad" gives me the impression that there's probably something big on her. I know she's the boss, but when I say something big, I mean something surprising and cheap.

Have you guys fought Sindel on Invasion today? Absolutely hellish. Imagine if Kronika comes out as something like this.

Still have hopes that she is One Being related - or something VERY powerful, even an Elder God - and turns out into something outlandish. Above Corrupted Shinnok level. Haven't played against Brainiac, so Idk if he improved anything from Shinnok, but he had some huge attacks as far as I remember.

Do you think NRS might take a page out of SNK's playbook? SNK Boss Syndrome got its moniker for a damn good reason.

I'm pretty dubious about Kronika supposedly not being on the roster. I'll believe it when I see it (or don't, in this case).

Tbh I'm imagining something like that. Corrupted Shinnok was absolutely cheap. When he wanted to, he erased you from existence pretty quickly, but he is defeatable, even in the first fight.

But if Kronika is going to be the boss of the bosses - and that should make her cheaper than MKII/UMK3 Shao Kahn, regarding only MK - she will probably be SNKBS. I can't imagine what she may do, and now that she is certainly unplayable, I guess they can really make her worst of the worst.

I was mentioning Invasion Boss Sindel, could barely touch her, even though I could break her armor. Imagine Kronika. This smells cheap boss. I just hope it isn't Shao Kahn MK9 style. I wanna my ass whooped with dignity.
 
I imagine she's mostly going to be a buff/debuffer. She'll rewind time when she gets KO'd, giving her another lifevar while you keep yours. She'll probably slow you down and other shenanigans

Gill's Resurrection still pisses me off to this day!

Also, I really hope the tier list will be something like this...

Banned Tier: Kronika

S+ Tier: Jade and a few others.

A-F Tier: Everyone else.

;)
 
Not very excited about Kano but at least it’s not his son that would somehow also have a cyber eye given to how original some Kombat kids are.
 
For me Kano is pretty much a waste. That primary looks like a recycled costume. As for "movie looks", looks nothing like Trevor.
 
I def get a Goddard vibe from it. They obviously couldn't get a scan of his face, but the facial hair, the haircut and the minimalist armor really reminds me of Kano vs Sonya in the movie.

I'll reserve full judgement for now though. I was upset about Kano in MKX, but they made him look great. Hoping they hit another homerun in this game, because as of now I'm not impressed
 
Dunno, don't see it. I will say this though, his face doesn't throw me off like the rest of the characters. I don't think they just scan a face and put it into the game. There's this guy who got his face scanned as Subby, and in game he looks very chubby and just different.
