I'm fairly certain that in every instance of Boon or the other NRS guys mentioning Ferra, they make sure to refer to her as "little lady."

So I'm pretty sure she's supposed to be a midget.

ÂaI can't see MK having a 40 year old human female in the game. So I guess a playable Sonya would be a kind of "past" iteration. Cassie has her father's power glows but she's kicky and acrobatic. There's definitely some Sonya in there."

Why not? :/ She could be like The Boss from mgs3.

I'd definitely give them major props if they did but in general fighting games tend to avoid older female characters OR go in the opposite direction and make them impossibly old but ageless.

Funny enough, on the Gamespot stream he just called her a girl, then went out of the way to correct himself and say 'lady'.

I don't even know anymore, man. Maybe it's a girl but they're downplaying it to avoid controversy.

With a game this violent I imagine they want to avoid the implication that there are children about in minimal fetish clothing murdering people/getting killed.

These people haven't really played alot of video games, since that happens all the time.


Or better yet, how about those military shooters where you essentially commit spree killings?

I'm excited that because of the gore tech this may be the first MK game since 1 that's truly controversial. Then somebody mentioned on another site (and you guys are mentioning it now) Ferra! It never crossed my mind how potentially controversial she is. Any negative press will be good press for MK. Especially if it's Fox News or something like it, jumping to conclusions and what not.

As a society we kind of compartmentalize military stuff like that. Americans do at least.

But yeah often you see ghoulish child-y things but there not usually straight up children. Ferra looks and sounds like she might be. The fact that she speaks a little like Elmo in cute broken english doesn't really help.

Also: Someone on TYM said she thrashes around as Torr is killed. Wonder if they have a shared pain connection a la GI Joe's Tomax/Xamot.


That would be incredibly interesting. All these new characters so far interest me heavily. Haven't been this intrigued by new faces since Deadly Alliance to be completely honest.

-Cass is listening to the fucking MK3 soundtrack on her player in her intro
-Kotal: "DIE, UNBELIEVER!"
-Cass, upon winning a round: "From the page of Cage!"
-After the blood bubble pops, she wipes the blood off of herself

So according to the MKX article on Polygon, Kotal Kahn is a demigod.

Christ, do not ever look at Warhammer 40,000 then. Kotal Kahn would be right at home there, though in the beginners league.

Once you notice his teeny mustache, he's much less imposing.

I can't stop looking at it.

Lol. I just can't help but think he'd fit perfectly in a slasher movie.

I can definitely see him chasing after a bunch of dumb teens with that giant sword of his yelling "I want to drink your blood!".

Just absolutely freaky he is.

He honestly just stares and says like 3 words the entire match.

Silence is powerful.
I seriously hope that they will leak the audio again, so all these Shinjuko/chrome/jarek/belokk/zebraman/nonmkfakeshitconceptartnevergonnahappen characters will be ruled out once and for all, jezus christ like 1000 threads outside this one about every single not existing character "Wut r teh chances of dis sh!t appearing"? srsly omg

I know, but the first time he did the heart fatality the angle had me thinking it really was such a 'stache. I can't unsee it. :(
