because you can doesn`t mean you should.....for the last bunch of games, the added pixel counts meant more detail for costumes and backgrounds which is a problem in itself. IMHO, I can live without the fancy, over-designed costumes characters like Skorpion and Sub-Zero have - it simply isn`t necessary. Design work that is too `fussy` ie too detailed detracts from the gameplay. I like the customised masks Subby, Skorp, etc all got by the time MK2 came out but because you can give a Kharacter an elaborate kostume doesn`t mean you SHOULD! Skorpion`s Deadly Alliance cozzie is a case in point, it looks `busy` and detracts from his initial visual impact. At all times, Skorp`s outfit should look like a real Ninja costume except with the unorthodox yellow bits. Different fighting styles, weapons, etc are all fine but Rayden`s and the Ninja costumes should all look like what they were/are - store bought Karate/Ninja outfits! Too much `realism` spoils the effect, guys. Anyone else agree or disagree with me?
