#i'm happy to see sindel tho

mk11 aftermath has the funniest story ever

they keep getting in trouble simply because everyone fucking hates Shang Tsung and I'm 110% sure they would've solved all their problems if they spent less time trying to revive mommy Sindel and more time getting the actual stupid crown

Ok so i heard....subzero was gonna be kuai liang originally for mk12/mk1. But they chose bihan and to nationality swap scorpion and the shirai-ryu? They made scorp for some unholy reason kuai and a fire ninja?

Why?

Nrs you have no good explanation for this.

From what i heard from the mocap and face claim actor for quan chi. Who is i believe middle eastern,I'm not sure tho so forgive me. But he is a moc/poc none the less.

I was told he didn't feel comfortable given nrs permission to use his likeness,and was worried about future endeavors with the company. Aka,he is concerned that they'll just use the face models and not actually hire anyone,and use ai for voice work or majority of the product.

Which is true. Netherealm studios is in for a real world of hurt and backlash by fans even more.

Honestly,the concepts of mk12/mk1 is better than the actual game. Fr fr.

I'm hoping that the VA and face models actually get better treatment tho. Because if consent isn't 100% given when contracting. And they pull sneaky shit. I smell a lawsuit.

Because the quan chi actor,he said he's happy that he gets representation but he hates how it happened. (In my deepest honest opinions tho. If anyone is gonna be middle eastern representation it needs to be jade,tanya,or rain. Because making quan chi a known demon character that is a bit.....questionable to me. Especially now. Even if the character isn't one....he is known always almost as one. So to do that. Is....not good to me. I just feel mk12/mk1 is a tad more on the nose with the racism but only enough to get by the radar to not get sued. But enough they can sneak by. It's always been a problem. Ever notice to there is less n less female characters? And all the ones tend to be conveniently from outworld and "exotic" areas? I find it funny how we never get a woman as a mk champion,how we never really have a female focused mk story. Women warriors exist,some even more brutal than the men. So how come in a setting where women can be savage. The only ones allowed have to be mileena or sindel. Or the quote unquote "monsterous" characters Hmmmmm makes you wonder. Why is the villains suddenly ok but still sidelined but declawed in their villainy? Explain nrs. Do tell me why you continue to make shitty decisions?)

Mk12/mk1 is ok in concept. But outside of it,in actuality it's not that great of an mk game. It has too many flaws,and most of them are questionable at mild. Look im gonna be honest,shang tsung is the only thing they focused on doing decent. And everyone else is an afterthought. And it sucks as a shang tsung fan,to see that. Because as much as i love shang tsung and i will stan him to the day i die. As well as love him for his i guess badboyness. Lol. I still want him to have a good story around him. Ya know?

And it sucks because i love other characters too but all of them in the new game sucks.

*sigh*

Anywho. Enough ranting.

I just hope that if nrs is up to shady shit. They get called fully out,exposed,and employees get compensation.
