Hara Kiri is coming back?

posted10/14/2014 05:28 AM (UTC)bysonyamkoriginalThe favorite part of the players are the moments after the "Finish Him / Her". Two months ago you said MKX will bring back one of those classic finishes that fans love so much. Could you tell us which one would it be?
As a matter of contract, can not speak ...
Could you give us a hint then?
Yes I can give you a hint ... That kind of finisher that will be in Mortal Kombat X was never present in the arcade period of the series.
[Editor's Note: Do we have a Hara-Kiri?]

boo... I want something new, IF they have to bring back an old ality id rather see friendships but with the darker tone of this game it might not fit, so I go back to my original choice, a new finisher
p.s. no brutalities either, we already have x-rays (which are basically the same thing )

I always liked Hara-Kiris. Im glad they could be coming back. I trust that NRS will update the concept and make it something fresh as well. No reason why it has to work exactly like it did in DA and Deception.

Also, Ed said that they had more than 30 characters. Im sure a lot of people will be glad to hear that, tho I liked the idea of just 24. Looks like MKX will have a hefty number or DLC characters.

Hopefully they are returning, better than friendships.
We'll have to appreciate what we get though.

Oooh, nice. I was expecting Animalities and Brutalities, not this.
Glad to see it's pretty much confirmed to be returning (the only other option is Kreate-A-Fatality, and THEY BETTER NOT).
Here's hoping they're pretty....involved, shall we say. Simple suicides seem appropriate for Earthrealm characters, but I expect more creative ways to off oneself from the inhabitants of the other realms.

Why not both? :P
Though Friendships might be hard to fit on ths dark atmosphere, but who knows. I think with some creativity they could be really funny.
Hara-Kiris I expect some creativity thrown there too, in Deception there were many that were a bit meh... (Scorpion really coudn't think about anything more brutal than just slapping his neck?). Hopefully we get each character using the full extent of their abilities for this and with the cinematic take they're using we could see some dramatism.

I would be fine with Hara Kiri's coming back. They can be done in an extremely dark fashion for MKX. It would definitely fit.

I don't mind them coming back, but it annoyed me when the AI would do it against me, and it was every 3rd or 4th enemy you defeated that would perform it. Hopefully it's less scripted this time around.

You just stated why Hara-Kiris were so stupid. Why in the hell would you kill yourself in the most brutal manner? You might as well have a fatality performed on you. Scorpion's imo was logical. It was fast, painless, and truly robbed the second player of a fatality.
All the others were just silly.

Yes, the 3rd opponent would always do a hara kiri, so annoying
Honestly, it's got to be Brutalities. They were first introduced with home UMK3 and Trilogy.
If it's Hara-Kiris? Ugh. Dumb.
At any rate, the input for a Harakiri needs be twice as long as a regular fatality or something, to make it more of a challenge for the loser to get to say "fuck you".
I beat your ass, I've earned the right to rip your goddamned head off.

Nope. I'm going to rip my own head off and deny you that right because fuck you, You didn't really win.
It's the best thing a salty player could do while still being a salty bitch so it's not like they gain something out of it beyond being petty.
It should come with a price though like the winning player can finish the last round with no blocking and fatality the loser regardless if they input the Hara-Kiri. Then you have truly earned your fatality.

Lmao! A classic!
But don't get me wrong, i'd love to see hara-kiri's return simply for some good ole' Deception nostalgia. And there's nothing wrong with having some be a little more creative than a "neck snap" but there's a difference between eye catching and idiotic lol

I was hoping for Friendships.
Guessing it'll be Brutalities.

It is a ninja thing.
Hell, thankfully they left the fire shit out for that one, Scorpion barely has any traces of being a ninja left. Aside the kunai on a rope/chain...

Precisely why it shouldn't be present. I don't see why you would have a feature in a game that caters to petty poor losers. Goes against everything I grew up with playing MK in the arcades, kicking ass and ripping skulls.
If it HAD to be present for some awful reason, It should only be after like a Mercy or something where the winner has nearly a full life bar, to pay back the victor's arrogance.
Point's moot anyway. It'll be Brutalities. :P

Fuck Hara Kiri
If someone wins, they have the right to finish you. End of story. None of this "Well I have one last chance to be a sore loser" shit. Take your defeat like a good sport.
Why in the fuck would we reward the loser?

Yeah that'd work too.
Brutalities have been hinted at since 9, it'll be interesting to see what they look like now since the new Babalities were a fun fusion between Friendships/Babalities.

Agreed. I didn't spend two rounds fighting you to suddenly pull a fast one on me and not see my glorious fatality performed on you. I hated Hara Kiris.
Bah!

Do people really still see fatalities as a reward of being the better player and would be so butthurt over the loser pulling a hara-kiri? lol
