I'm a big fan of Goro from the first game, and I think his intimidation factor has gone down significantly over the years. I believe part of this is due to his hunched over fighting stance. He's a huge character and if he stood upright, the height difference could really help convey his strength.

I haven't seen anyone discuss it yet, but in the "Next" trailer we can see a screen of what appears to be Goro in development. He is very hunched over, and I am worried this will be his fighting stance in MKX. The pre order sequence at the end of the gameplay and story trailers gives me hope though because he looks huge and very intimidating. Here's hoping his stance looks more like that, although it might just be his select screen walk up (that would be an awesome select screen walk up). Thoughts?

Yeah he hasn't seemed as menacing or intimidating since MK Gold, don't know if its because im just older now or because he has never been as difficult to defeat as in MK1 (Arcade) but I too hope that they can do something to kind of bring that feeling back, the same can be said for Kintaro but I doubt he will be in this game anyway.

I share your worries. He's at least taller and a lot bigger / wider than Kotal Kahn in the comics so imo he should be big and the tallest character, I don't care if he almost hits the energy bar!

Goro is my favourite character so far and it's a shame how they did him wrong in MK9. His look is the best ever and let's hope it carries over in the actual game. That footage could be of a certain hit he takes or attack and the tease at the end of videos should be his stance. Just straight like in MK1!

I am hoping he has a stance somewhere along the lines of his MKX reveal render.

He should gallop at the player using his arms and wildly flail his legs and dick until someone dies.

I'm not sure they pay attention to tweets like this. I wish they did. Regardless its too late in development, all this stuff is done.

Yeah I really hope Goro is like a big hulking brute like Grundy or Doomsday from injustice. It always bugged me how in past MK games the characters were always just about the same size. MKX has a little diversity in this regard, but its barely noticeable imo. Although I guess Torr's pretty big.

As far as him being intimidating tho, shit like that just hypes me up. Since he's playable this really depends on the player, and I dunno about you guys but I am gonna work my ass off to make him scary again. Assuming he has at least a few good tools and isn't completely Sheeva tier.

Hell yeah to mk9 render. Standing up so straight he's leaning backwords and his top arms always crossed like fuck yall. Use the top arms for grabs and the heavy damage stuff. In the comic he used the bottom set for fireballs and it looked pretty cool.

I've always wanted him to actually use his four arms differently. Not just throw a left punch with both of his left arms. Would be amazing if some of his hits were actually double with only one press.

Or better yet, what if, just for Goro, HP and HK were for his upper arms and LP LK were for his lower arms. One button for each arm. Would be immense.
