Ermac looks like a skinny aids patient, and I don't like that he floats. Cassie looks generic. That's pretty much it.

Reptile looked the worse, until Ermac was revealed. What a fucking mess. I don't get this new ninja hood fad. Only Noob was able to pull that look off for me. The stupid hood aside, then there's Ermac's face. Ermac is still the "red ninja", and as such requires a fucking mask. Cover that awful-looking face. Speaking of "red ninja", the guy has like 1% of red in his entire design, the rest is all black. No one would be able to say "oh look it's the red ninja guy!".

I am obviously in the minority here, but I HATE Ermac's new design. Worst design ever.

Raiden's hat looked weird at first but I got used to it. What happened to his precious medallion though? MK 9's story was based on that thing after all!

I know this is already covered by a lot of people already but Cassie Cage's face and gooseneck is awful. She doesn't even look like the same character in the comic book. I hope they fix this before the game comes out.

Finally, I wish they kept Scorpion's MKDA-MKA katana! Back then he looked and played like a ninja! MK9 and MKX scorpion looks like a punk rocker with all that metal spikes and leather straps. At least returning his katana will help bring back his ninja theme.

honestly, i havent been disappointed at all. this shit blows mk9 out of the water. one thing that did make me question a design choice was quan chi's netherbat. i think its dumb but i dont plan on playing much of him anyways. if i do it will be the portal one.

Because to the MK fanbase, having a mask = ninja.

Ermac isn't a ninja anymore though. He's evolved. Like a Pokemon. Hence his face.

yeah, his current look doesn't really match and I actually thought he was Noob at first! I like Ermac's MKD face wrap design better than the hood. He looked more menacing back then and it actually looked like thousands of souls were wrapped inside him.

i lold but i actually like the skinny frame model. not for ermac specifically but in general. in mk9 it felt like they all needed the standard heman action ficture torso so they could fit the guts inside.

Ermac floating is dumb. It worked for Injustice and they should have ended it there.

too bad he was confirmed as good in that game.


Ferra should keep those feathers on her head.

I also noticed, during the stream, that Kano had red lights during his kutthroat variation, instead of green.

The possibility that this Ermac may not have a soul patch on his chin. That would be icing if he ended up having one though.

You really want to hear nitpicking? How about this. I loved Subs new stance, especially his slightly downward slanted head. So guess what was the first thing Ive noticed they've changed in newer vids. The angle of his head! It's much more upright now and looks very unnatural. It's just as annoying to me as Cassie's weird neck. There is a slight chance the new angle is because he's looking upwards at Ermac who floats pretty high, but he also does it against Kano who is his height. Just pisses me off because I loved how he looked in earlier vids. This and the ninja chins are my only pet peeves, otherwise I'm actually expecting this to be my fav MK ever. Overall I'm more than thoroughly impressed.



God damnit you're right about Sub Zero. I hope that's fixed or changed back

I honestly have no complaints, not even nit-picks, about any of the designs thus far. The designs for this game have really blown my mind with how surprising good they are. It could actually end up beating out Deadly Alliance in terms of design/aesthetic for me.

I have to say that Scorpion and Subbie's masks are just not gelling with me, but then they've been re-designed so much over the years that I just don't care at this point.

Kung Lao's buzzsaw hat is just horrid. The blades look like sharpened rocks. Why couldn't they just go with literally a thin buzzsaw blade look?

Kitana also looks all wrong IMO. I like that they strayed away from the stripper look, but she just looks like a hot mess here.



Yes, because everbody wants the clone-ninja's back!

Unmasked Ermac = the best thing that happend in a LONG time, he's still mysterious, get over it.

I really hope to bug the horrid ninja-fandorks they won't release a DLC with all the oldschool ninja suits ANYMORE, we had those in MK9 please, leave them out for new stuff this time.

Why ninja-fanboys are such cheap bitches always?

The red ninja has died, its ERMAC NOW, he shed his rainbow-boring clothes forever.
