SPOILER ALERT:Mortal Kombat X DIGITAL COMIC DISCUSSION

They could expand their plot possibilities and length a lot by having the "courage" to not ride the Earthrealm warriors all the time in story mode. When two bad or neutral groups fight each other we should play from their point of view, even if there are no White Lotus or Special Forces involved.

I'd love a big Outworld civil war plot where I play people from both Kotal and Mileena's factions as they fight people as bad as they are.
But if they do it MK9 style they'll come up with excuses for us to fight everyone as Kung Lao or Raiden etc. and that really limited the story in quality and quantity of fights.

Thousand times this!

Mortal KOmbat 9 story sucked! Only the good-guys and most of the badguys were just flesh to beat for the boring goodguys.

Really hope this time is different and you get to see storylines and fights WITHOUT any goodguys in it, MK isn't only about the goodguys, the badguys have just as much (some even more) fans as the goodguys.

I really hope KUng Jin doesn't turn out to be some loser like Liu Kang that has to save everyone and who is the ultimate Matrix-style ONE. That would suck so much.

I'm holding my heart for storymode, I really hope it will be like in the comic, but with 4 fights each chapter this is gonna be HARD, probably Cassie has fights like this:

Fight 1 Jacqui - to train... boring excuse of a battle.
Fight 2 Johnny Cage... because she has been bad... BORING
Fight 3 Sonya Blade... because she's been bad and didn't come to the army...
Fight 4 Kano, het ultimate goal probably, boring

I'm sure we get such worthless SOnya/Johnny and Jax/Johnny battles again, or even more horrid, Smoke VS Kitana because they both rush into battle...

And one character probably has only save-another-goodguy missions much like Jade had in MK9...
 
Spoiler:
At least Shinnok doesn't die. Can't say the same about Quan Chi. Shinnok might make a comeback and be the final boss for all we know. A lot can happen in 25 years.

Those are just my predictions for the roster: Sonya, Johnny and possibly Fujin if Raiden recruited him right after MK9.

Don't forget Kenshi. We know he's involved in the NRW because he's the one who turned Scorpion.

given that Raiden also seems to be against Kotal Kahn, per the Raiden reveal trailer.

I think that's just the pre-fight dialogue being pre-fight dialogue. In fact, they appear to have a truce based on their short interaction in chapter 5 of the comics.

Stranger things have happened, Kano joined forces with Sonya to defeat Goro in canon MK1. It would make Kano less of a one-dimensional villain if he's able to appreciate the difference between warlord Shao Kahn ruling Earthrealm and a demonic, corrupt God ruling Earthrealm. So I definitely see NRS being interested in this option.

Didn't the Quan Chi trailer mention Kano working with Quan Chi? I don't think he cares. But I can also definitely see him helping Earthrealm, like Jarek did in the original timeline.

I can't wait to play story mode!!Im sure it's gonna be awesome!!!I may preorder after the show tomorrow .


"I AM the flashing lights and special effects."
 
This has some relation to the comic so I'll put it here.

Could that new character we saw in the Living Tower be Kotal's father? It would tie in with all of the relatives that the game is said to have. I think it really looks like Kotal, and I know his father is in the comic. I just don't know the whole story behind him because I haven't read it.

But if it isn't Kotal's father, it could be one of the other guys that was with Kotal. I know someone mentioned one of them possibly being the fallen ally, and they are his race aren't they? Correct me if I'm wrong.

The title that you are given for your post count isn't chosen.
It's given to you based on your amount of posts.
Mine says "Mortal Kombat Champion," but I'd prefer if 8K+ posts = the title of Lin Kuei Warrior instead.
I think 10K posts = Elder God, if I'm not mistaken.

:laugh: I know it! I was Hollywood Superstar too, few weeks ago.

That was the joke!
 
I think I was a Shokan Warrior or prince in my old 2011 account, more than 4000 posts.

I miss that account...

The casting call could have been using a name Erron had earlier in development, or it could have wanted to have some characters' names false. There are a few reasons. And I don't think NRS would have two characters so similar to each other, especially when we haven't seen Salazar at all in the comic yet while Erron's been featured quite a bit. I believe it is more than likely they're the same character.

I agree that it's more than likely. If I had to pull a random number out of my ass for how likely I think it is, I'd say 75-80%. But until that goes up to the 95% area, I don't think it's a great argument for why Erron Black should not be Black Dragon.

Aaaand it looks like we got our 95%!
 
Johnny can surely be Erron Black.

He called Cassie many times, that trigged her GPS, he localized her.

Then he called the Black Dragon, with paper on his mouth, and went to Outworld with his costume of Erron.

He kidnapped Cassie, knowing Sonya would find it anyway.

He goes back to Earthrealm, and waits for Sonya's call.

He rescues Cassie and make amends with Sonya.

But that trigged many blood battles, so Johnny feeds the demon.

Everybody discover his plot and goes after him. Johnny Erron Black is the big bad.

Obs 1.: It's all possible, Reiko cosplays Shao Kahn;

Obs 2.: OF COURSE I AM JOKING :laugh:
 
I just kinda hope they go back to the original artist for these next issues. Sorry, but I really had a tough time getting through some of the panels looking like all the coloring was just fill in the blank spots with little to no shadowing or lighting effects. It sorta... distracted me.

But I'm sure all the complaints were already said so I don't think adding more is gonna do anything. Just can't wait for the next issue... that's... all the way in May.

Right?
