I wouldn't mind that. The X-Men franchise has tons and tons of characters to choose from. And it would be nice for the fans to expand their views and learn more about the universe, instead of being narrowminded and only want the top 3 most popular characters to be on screen all the time. It gets dull.

Terrible comparison.

Wolverine = Sub-Zero and Scorpion, which if you took time to actually read my post rather than assuming shit, you'd see that I specifically put:

As long as the big 4 are in, the rest of the roster is interchangeable and replaceable.

The big 4 in MK are Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Raiden and Liu Kang, and 3 of those 4 are already in.
You could definitely do a movie with the big 4 of X-Men (Wolverine, Professor X, Magneto and Mystique) and replace the rest of the surrounding cast, and it will sell well.
 
X-Men is a pretty shitty comparison considering that the newest movie had the mainliners along with a ton of obscure characters. Which is exactly what MKX is doing. Sub-Zero, Scorpion and Raiden are in. It doesn't matter who else joins the roster.

Who cares when the best era is? If you want the next MK game to be the best, you need to copy the best.

Shouldn't you good people be using the "roster speculation" thread for such discussion?

Nevertheless, I DO wish they'll have more MK4 characters in the roster. And I've always been a "90's MK" guy. It's just about time they developed characters like Reiko, Fujin, Tanya, etc.

This thread was being used for MKX comic and MKX game discussion, given that Fujin appeared in the comic and has also been hinted at via Tweets to be in the game, but yeah it got derailed a while ago.

Same here.
I'm a 90s guy too, but if I want to play MK1, MKII, MK3 and UMK3 I'll fire up my Sega Genesis, and if I want to play Trilogy (PS1) and Trilogy version 2.0 (aka MK9), I'll just fire up my PS3.
MKX is the "passing of the torch" game, per Ed Boon, and the game in which the next generation of fighters appears and continues from where the klassic characters left off.
 
And to be fair, since we're arguing for Fujin, MK4 pretty much had the same engine and mechanics as the first three games.

So people who are claiming oh let's bring back the 3D era game play as well since Y'all love the characters so much, kinda doesn't work in this instance.

For the most part, yes.
Interactible objects and side-stepping on a 3D plane were also introduced in MK4.
That said, MK4 technically WAS the last arcade released game, even though it was at the end of the arcade era, and it also had a roster in which 46% of the roster was new characters (50% of that roster was brand new, if you include Meat).

Omgosh. That sounds like a great movie. No Wolverine? Yes please. X-Men was never about Wolverine. The only reason he became a "must have" in the films is because they went against almost everything Wolverine as a character is supposed to be and gave us Hugh Jackman in black leather. Men wanted to be him, women wanted to bed him. Had Wolverine been accurately portrayed in the films, he wouldn't have become a staple in the series.

Which brings me to my point... Art is dead. It's not about what is right for the story any more. It's about getting the attention of and pleasing the basic bit**es who demand ridiculous things from the artists even when it has diminishing effects on the final product.

If it were up to me, Scorpion and Sub Zero would have been ripped out of MK several games back.

"And MK would fail and cease to exist because of it." -> Wrong. Scorpion and Sub Zero became popular not because the universe had already programmed us to love them, it happened because SOMEONE designed likable characters. Meaning, other likable characters can be made to replace them. Sadly, that sort of drive is dead within these artists because the spoiled little sh**s who decide if something succeeds or fails will not be swayed.

It makes me laugh when I sit here and read posts about how this character and that character are all essential for a successful game. It's pathetic... And sad. I can understand having one essential character to a video game series... Maybe. But some of you are suggesting that three, four even FIVE characters are needed. Gtfo with that sh**.

That's how it is with MK, though.
Sub-Zero and Scorpion = the Ken and Ryu of MK.
Not to far behind are Raiden and Liu Kang (aka Chun Li of MK, icon status-wise).
3 of those 4 are in MKX, and as long as those 3 are in, the whole roster could be interchangeable, and it wouldn't matter.
Change out Kitana for Mileena, change out Baraka for Kung Lao etc, etc, etc.
That's my point.

The whole MK9 roster doesn't need to be in every single game and constantly repeated.
Let the dead stay dead for 1 game.
Hell, Liu Kang was dead for 1 game in Deadly Alliance.
Johnny Cage has died almost as many times as there are games, over the lifespan of the MK series.

Not wanting to derail the thread, but...
I remember when MK:Armageddon was supposed to be the "passing of the torch" game and the next one would be a reboot with new characters. Remember that? I was intrigued. I'm not saying that I didn't enjoy MK9, but I thought that... uh, well, it's like they decided to have another game with the old characters not only to please the fans but to kill them all just for shock value and then bring some of them back in the next game. It's almost as if they're afraid of trying something entirely new, does anyone else notice it? I was intrigued by the original idea for the game that was to be released after MK:A. Alas, it seems that they decided it would be best to please fans and keep the old cycle of "dying/returning/dying/returning" instead of pushing the series forward.

I know, the entire roster is not announced - maybe there is a significant share of new characters. But in all honesty I don't see the point in killing old characters and bring them back. If that's what "being best for business" means, I'd rather not play another MK in the near future. Or at least stop that crap and keep them alive for the next game if you're afraid of trying something new. It doesn't look/sound good when you announce your game as something totally new and then step by step we're reintroduced to, errr, Kung Lao, Kitana, Jax and who knows who's next. Seriously, why Jax's alive again? What's next, Stryker? Next thing you know is half of the MK9 roster is in the game and/or back to life for no good reason. To think that there were people defending the idea of the previous game massacre... There you go, it was just a cheap move.
 
Hey heres an idea what if Fujin is the main baddy. I mean if NRS didnt want to reveal him yet wouldnt he be cut from the comic.... right??? idk all I do know is that you guys love to call each other names
