Fact: Quoting game designers in an attempt to prove or disprove a theory about the future of the MK franchise is a fool's errand. Sometimes what they say on the subject proves to be accurate, other times it does not. Somehow life goes on.

Wow. There's ridiculously whorish and then there's THAT. sad

How soon until they just stop the pretense and every female character's win pose is her actually pulling a train on a bunch of greasy porn actors? furious

You must be sexually deprived if you think this is just like porn. XD

"You must be sexually deprived if you think this is just like porn. XD"

So you think there's no extreme of trashy portrayals of women in games that's overdoing it for you? There's no difference between "Hey, lets add a little sexy cleavage" and "Hey, let's have her pole dance like an honest-to-God sex worker?"

Ok, one question. How the hell do her fuckin tits manage to not wobble all over the place when she's pole dancing with that battle damage?

I mean it's literally just her nipple covered on her left breast. Her battle damage is insane in this game, unless she's using formaldehyde to glue her nipples to her clothing there's no way the fabric could stick to her breast without exposing it. I could get into another "demoralising the character and personalities of female warriors within the franchise by compensating basic respect and dignity with blatant sex appeal and partial nudity" arguement but I'm too torn between liking how cheeky and fun her win pose is, and being shocked with how unrealistically covered up she ends up after taking a few punches. Not meaning to kick up a debate or nothing, just perplexed at how the shredded fabric on her left breath somehow managed to defy physics and gravity.


Because unlike Dead or Alive, Mortal Kombat doesn't feel the need to animate the women's breasts like living jelly.


DOA takes breast physics to the next level.


That's how large breasts move though. grin

Hmm, I feel like I am repeating myself here...

Women today go and learn pole-dancing for the work-out and the excersize, because it's a fun way to work-out. That doesn't make them strippers.

It's like saying all women who have sex are whores. Hell, people on this forum are calling the MK women for whores, just because they wear high heels. I wonder why people are so narrow-minded these days.

Disingenuous argument. That's clearly not the image NRS is invoking here with this portrayal and you know it. The clear intent is sleazy titillation, not some wholesome message about the value of physical fitness.

As soon as the M rating permits it, I'm sure.

Don't even wanna think about what Boon would have done with that AO rating he wanted.

Sure, that's what NRS wants to show with their female characters: They are all slutty whores. That was their intention all along!

That was expected.
It's sad that NRS made their female characters hard to take seriously.
Considering that Sheeva will have some "sexy pose" as a winning stance, well yeah.

At least teenagers will have some things to do, when don't play the game.

Nah, I consider myself open-minded when it comes to things like this. I don't judge people by what they wear, how they look and such. And I wouldn't call a woman a whore, just because she twirls around a pole.

I find it rather neat that NRS made use of her staff in her winning pose, and the twirling around it looks cool. Jade doesn't pull off her clothes, grind up against the staff or touches herself, or anything like that. So to jump straight to the conclusion that she's a whore, a stripper or a pornstar after having seen her winning pose...

I'm just not like that.

I have mixed feelings. My heart says no but my body says yes...wow

I don't think it's in keeping with the character. This is a little more of a mileena thing in my eyes.
