I thought we could try having a thread where everyone can just occasionally drop by and post a random MKX-related thought that isn't necessarily called for in an existing topic. This is assuming most of you guys are, like me, finding yourselves autonomously thinking about this goddamned game every ten minutes...

Post any thought that pops into your head while you're here on the boards. The only rules are 1) Must relate to MKX somehow, and 2) Be Respectful!




I hadn't really noticed Scorpion's face-slice Fatality until I saw it in an old gameplay video earlier today... That shit was just terribly off-putting. I can't believe I hadn't paid proper attention to it this whole time.

...Also, I'm thinking I need to allocate some time to a new hobby. Last morning, I was actually angry when I found out it was the 17th. I thought it was the 19th, and I was that much closer -_-

Also some people find it surprising that D'Vorah will be one of my mains.

Not too surprised, myself. Those combos look sick. And that Bug Brutality is my favorite one from the trailer. Also, you obviously like yellow!




Now rewatching MK9's Story Mode. Jax had a thing for Sonya. It wasn't all professional. His little quips and smiles are very flirtatious. "Gonna keep an eye on you! You're sticking with me!" And let's not forget, "She's nobody's property!" Also, the "It ain't like that!" to Johnny was very defensive.

Speaking of which... this chick enjoys all the attention from the guys. She reciprocates just enough to keep them going. Looked really pleased when Johnny said he and Jax had a fight.

I'm actually taking a dump right now so this dump-a-thought thread is really living up to its name.

It's kind of a minor thing, but I'm really excited for having more skins than normal. I want a healthy mixture of klassic and new skins. But what I would do for a MK3 Jax skin...

Me too man! Lmao best trailer ever!

One of the guys I work with is a "casual MK fan" and is almost as hyped as I am for this game. Anyway, everytime he sees me he brings up MKX because he knows that it's all I ever talk about lol

When I get up in the morning, I immediately go to MKO and look at Ed's tweets for new info. It's pretty bad really lol

I'm gonna try to main Jacqui. I think that her potential is off the charts. All of the new characters look fresh and exciting, but Jacqui intrigues me the most. Maybe because we haven't seen much of her.

We haven't seen much of Erron Black either. So much mystery with that guy. Love the guns/missles(?) on Jacqi's arms though.

I was thinking this morning that seeing the Kahn armour picture in some kind of library stage, that stage was one of the faction background I believe, possibly for the Brotherhood of Shadow. Now didn't Reiko have dealings with Shinnok in the old games before becoming one of Kahns generals?


So yeah more Reiko obsession

Johnny looks like he moves differently from everyone else. Everyone else seems relatively realistic in the movements, Johnny seems.....cartoony.

Also, on a completely separate note, I'm really hoping for the next several games Kotal Kahn replaces Shao. He seriously needs a rest until they can come up with something better than angry, stripper, bdsm looking Emperor who wants to conquer realms just for the hell of it. He hasn't been menacing since MK3 and that's a shame as I originally loved him as a character but he's grown so stale.

I don't think Frost ages the same way as our regular humans. And we probably won't see Kira or Kobra anyways.

No. Empress Mileena is the ONLY name option.

SubZero has had many different maskless/hoodless looks over the years. MKDA was the first time we saw him with grey hair, and in MKD it was white, but that may not be an age thing since Frost's hair has always been white.

I'm wondering if they will age the characters in the story. Like how Johnny, Sonya and Kenshi are all seen straight after the events of MK9. Assuming they survive to the end, will we see them in 25 yrs time all with crow's feet and grey hair?

Johnny Cage vs Cassie Cage

I hope they make some mention about the fact that they both have "nut punches".

Cassie: "First one to get punched in the crotch loses!"
Johnny: "No hitting below the belt, princess, okay?"
Cassie: "No promises"

Sad, but true. I don't think I can withstand another sojourn in a world where MK9 Shao Khan exists.

Yeah, definitely; Johnny is rocking some grays in his hair and Sonya's trying to hide her looming crow's feet in the shadow of her hat in the Cage Family Trailer Haha



I'm having a hard time deciding whether or not to read the Story script if it leaks this time...

I want to know more about the green energy seen throughout the series. We know Johnny and Cassie can use it, but we have seen others such as Shao Kahn, Nightwolf, and Jade use something similar, Nightwolf and Kahn actually take it a step further by making weapons out of it (Bow n arrow for Nightwolf and Spear for Kahn) Not to mention their green charge attacks (Kick for Jade)

Idk I would like to know if this is just a coincidence and NRS likes green or if they are all tapping into a similar type of energy and is something most people that aren't average humans can eventually learn to use. EDIT Just realized this technically isn't MKX related lol my bad.

All this talk about "Blood Magik" and "Blood Gods" is making me think "....so what exactly IS Skarlet doing?" I'd imagine this would be a good time for her to shine, since she pretty much IS blood magic.

Will she play some sort of role in MKX?

Shao Kahn wasn't conquering realms for the hell of it. I think it was mentionned eventually that he was being unknowingly influenced by the One Being to combine the realms so he could come back to life. Same as Onaga.

Until MK9 stripped all of anything interesting about him anyway and literally just made him into a manipulated pawn in a bigger scheme thus eliminating any threatening vibe completely from him, at least in my eyes. That whole Quan Chi angle fucked him in the new timeline and made him look like a buffoon.
