Alright, that was dope, I'm getting more hyped for MK11 by the minute lol.- Geras reminds me a lot about Thanos.- Skarlet redesign looks very promising, and good.- Baraka is finally getting the service he should of had a long time ago.- Gears/costumization, stages and selection screen all look dope.- Gameplay looks wild, cinematic beauty.I'm really looking forward to this game.Some characters that I would personally love to see;- Kabal. (One of the greatest movesets out there. Gotta love his weapons.)- Motaro. (Mainly due to gameplay potential, but also because MK Trilogy was my first MK and he fascinated me.)- Noob Saibot. (Think he should, and will make a comeback.)- Fujin. (About time for a return.)- Mileena. (Bae of MK.)- Erron Black. (Fan Fave, and interesting moveset.)- D'Vorah. (Purely for moveset diversity.)
Normally I'm all for further expansion on fleshing out characters through their design, and taken at face value if it were a completely new character this, I dunno, Arabic steampunk look for Skarlet is a nice design. But I feel its very counter-intuitive? The barebones nearly-nothing on outfit in 9 made sense, she was all about being fluid and making physical contact with the things she's bloodbending. Unless the intention for her inclusion this game is something akin to X-Men's Rogue, it's intentionally all-covering to prevent her abilities from being used. But...then they are used anyways because duh, gameplay mechanics still need to come into play, so I dunno, it doesn't seem right for the character. Also her hair should be red. I guess dressing like the naked lady from Metal Gear conceptually that got all that negative press also wouldn't be a smart idea, but then its Mortal Kombat so it kinda gets lost in the sea of other obscenities.I guess beyond that observation I don't have much else to add that others haven't already said. Looks good, look forward to playing. I oddly hope they preserved the cartoon ninja look from MKX in this game's customization, it had such a weird charm to using. That and human Reptile, it was so freaking cool in MK9.

He's a mix of Kan-Ra's sand traps and Zasalamel's time manipulation powers with a bit of Wrestler Jax thrown in for flavor.The Street Fighter said, January 19, 2019, 03:21:50 amAlright, that was dope, I'm getting more hyped for MK11 by the minute lol.- Geras reminds me a lot about Thanos.- Skarlet redesign looks very promising, and good.- Baraka is finally getting the service he should of had a long time ago.- Gears/costumization, stages and selection screen all look dope.- Gameplay looks wild, cinematic beauty.I'm really looking forward to this game.Some characters that I would personally love to see;- Kabal.

Like you said, it's Mortal Kombat... scantily clad ladies would get lost in the sea of total and over the top violence the series is known for.

Skarlet never seemed to need contact to use her powers, in fact, the only time her outfit was intuitive in MK9 was with her blood projectile, which she would rip from her belly, otherwise, its just the same "girls must be naked" costume that pretty much every female in MK9 had, it wasn't meant to be intuitive, just sexy. Now, she literally pulls blood from the enemies, so its not like she needs that excuse to be naked, and if you ask me, some of her costumes are still sexy, despite being covered.Seadragon77 said, January 19, 2019, 03:35:53 pmThe Street Fighter said, January 19, 2019, 03:21:50 amAlright, that was dope, I'm getting more hyped for MK11 by the minute lol.- Geras reminds me a lot about Thanos.- Skarlet redesign looks very promising, and good.- Baraka is finally getting the service he should of had a long time ago.- Gears/costumization, stages and selection screen all look dope.- Gameplay looks wild, cinematic beauty.I'm really looking forward to this game.Some characters that I would personally love to see;- Kabal.

What I want to know is when will Jade be shown, her appearence was foreshadowed twice ever since MK9, she should have a big role in this game.
Lots of wonky ass animations and weak posing right off the bat seems NRS still isn't learning much in that department.
Yeah, they do right in other spots, but animation wise.....good lord it hurts to watch. Slightly better, but still hurts.

I think NRS kinda considers their bad animations some sort of signature, because there is no way they haven't seen people criticizing that.
I know some people here don't really like Maximilian, but this is pretty good info, a compilation of hints for possible upcoming characters.Spoiler: The possible characters are (click to see content)Cassie Cage (I even posted a screenshot of her, from the Behind The Scenes video)Kung Lao (same as Cassie, and he is implied to fight his revenant self)Jhonny Cage (seen in a VS screen in the Behind The Scenes video)Kabal (heavily implied to be featured in the upcoming Kombat Kast)Liu Kang (as if he even needed it, he is apparently seen being attacked by Raiden in a trailer and his past self seems to have a big role in the story)Kitana (the hint to Cassie Cage appears to be an intro dialogue against her, also, she is in the same spot as Liu Kang)Kronika (while she is the final boss, it seems she is meant to have multiple forms, like Shinnok, one of which should be playable)Kano (fights Cassie Cage in one of the menus)Rain (from this character on, they are showed in important menus, which is something more likely for a playable character than a NPC)Noob SaibotSmokeShang Tsung

You would be surprised, it's the same boat as other people. Even though he is a big voice for the FG community, some people just don't like him.
Not everyone is is going to like someone no matter how they are, regardless of whether they're the chillest person or the most obnoxious one. Even someone as charismatic as Max is going to have some haters.Don't think too hard on it.
It is a sad truth. There are those who have nothing but absolute hate in their hearts. That's the only thing they know. We need to let them go. No matter how hard we try to reach them, there is nothing we can do for them.

You know, I was looking at some videos, and I must say that even though some bad animations are still there, most of them seem much better than the ones from previous NRS games. Its not perfect, but its actually a big improvement.
