I would love for Goro to return and be the sub boss again but I think he'll be a more challenging opponent if they were to give him the movement speed of Ferra/Torr or Bane.


Agree 100%.

That was one of the things I liked about MK1 Goro, his size didn't really effect his speed at all. MK9 Goro (and Kintaro) was a joke IMO. I think if he returns they need to make his speed at least equal to the regular sized characters and if he is returning as an unplayable sub-boss they should increase his speed some.

Well the general thought process seems to be that if you lived through MK9 you're pretty much a shoe-in so.

Goro confirmed. Obvi.

Goro being a sub boss is boring to me. Him being a normal playable character would be interesting like he was in Deception. If Kahn ever returned I'd want him to be playable character status as well.

I'm not the most up to date on Boon's twitter trolling, but doesn't this if anything confirm he won't be in the game? So far it seems like the more he hints at characters the less likely they'll be in the game. Assuming there's any method at all to his madness.

And yeah, looking at Grundy's design in Injustice, or maybe even Doomsday's, it seems like they could really give Goro a killer play style in MKX if he was playable. Make him a force to be reckoned with again. I loved the big, massive tank like characters in Injustice and so far from what I've seen Torr and Kotal just don't scratch that itch in MKX.

MK9 isn't Sheeva's second chance. MK9 is just another Trilogy just like MKT and Armaggedon. If it was a legit game like MK3 when she debuted, then I would say she got a second chance. Her second chance would legitimately be MKX.

Why are some people saying Sheeva has no chance? Look how much treatment Goro and Kintaro got! Sheeva deserves the same!

I wouldn't care if Sheeva became the sub-boss. She should get notice like her counter-parts, Goro and Kintaro.

Peace!

I'd like Goro or Kintaro, provided they were treated properly, not the travesty that was the punching-bag charade of MK9, with Baldy O'Growl and Mr.Whiskers.

I'd much prefer a new Shokan though. A new Shokan is on my wishlist

It'd surely be awesome to have a playable Goro. Former champion of Mortal Kombat, he deserves the playable spot out of all them shokans. NRS has shown they're able to mix large characters with small ones now with Injustice, so I wouldn't be surprised if Goro is Next.

Can you marry me?

Preach on. Damn straight on all accounts. MK9 was not a second chance at all. She was revealed second to last and had absolutely nothing of merit to do. She was just there cause she had to be. Smh at people considering a forced appearance as a second chance.

How is that teasing Goro.

The only time i'd believe Boon's tweets is if he deconfirms some minor nuisance character like he did with Chameleon, Hsu Hao, Drahmin, etc.

Eh, well, Boon did say that the next character will be a bad guy...maybe it is Goro?

I dunno, I don't want big characters in the game because their slowness will just imbalance the gameplay. This is why I didn't fuck with Bane and Solomon Grundy in Injustice, and the game itself lol.

I'm really shocked by the Goro teases. Usually he just kinda throws out stuff here and there(as he's been doing with Reptile nods), but he really went from 0-60 with this whole thing in no time.

And a side note to everyone...of COURSE you should be skeptical... Its Ed F'N Boon, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun day dreaming.

Troll Boon > all

I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you there.

MK9 is a legitimate game. She had a chance to garner more fans, and I'm sure she got a couple. (Out of the millions of units sold at least one person became a Sheeva fan after MK9.) Was her appearance forced? Yeah probably. That doesn't change the fact she at least had an appearance in the game.

She had more of a chance than ANY 3D era character. (Except of course Quan Chi.) Know why? She was in an MK game that had a story mode, and gameplay that was good. She's had more exposure than she's ever had in the entire series. And you say it wasn't a second chance? Tell that to Nitara, Drahmin, Darrius, Dairou, Kobra, etc.

And to whoever said Sheeva was second to last to be revealed, as if that actually matters.

There was absolutely no effort put into her character. She was tossed in. MK9 was hardly a true shot at redemption for her character. Your arguement is as silly as saying Armageddon was the MKD characters second chance.

A second chance isn't just a shot at being in another game. But actually having effort put into their character. Don't sit here and act like Sheeva was given a fair shake. She was nothing but a dayplayer who happened to be playable...because she was in MK3.

Goro...? Strange choice. I thought shokans call to fame was in MK9 and in MKX there will be some new big brawlers. Actually I though Torr will fill the spot, but if Goro is in the game...

Personally, I'd prefer Kintaro. I always liked more thna Goro and I think he has more memorable appearance, but Goro is an icon. And since he was in MK1...well, I won't doubt possibility of his inclusion.

Meh I wasn't meaning compilation games. I liked Goro being playable in Deception as a regular character. I enjoyed that and would like it again in MKX.

You act like Sheeva has it SO bad. Reptile didn't even have a fucking voice. So don't tell me they didn't put any effort into her character. That's just a load of shit. They at least gave her a voice with some dialogue.

Did she get the short end of the stick? Yes. But don't try and say she's the only victim. Just because you personally didn't feel it was a true redemption doesn't make it true. It was a chance just like it was a chance for anyone who hasn't been seen since Armageddon.

I never said anything about Sheeva being the "only victim". We were talking about her so why would I go bringing in Tom, Dick, and Harry?

And it was a chance they shat all over. So no. Still not a true second chance at redemption for me. We will not agree.
