Anyways I liked his fatality. I do miss the old less complicated ones though. "Toasty", "Spine rip", "Electrocution", all easy to name. WTF do you call this? Lol!

Haha! Imagine reading that in the moves list. Knowing NRS the name is "Fatality 1". Ew.

Very cool finish to the fatality but I don't understand what all the hoohah was about regarding how disgusting it is. Very excited to see the rest of the fatalities now...
And to see how the shitstorm in this thread turns out as well!

I like it when the Fatalities are elaborate, but then they need to be interesting as well. For example, the face cutting is kinda out of place. It would be alot cooler if Scorpion had thrown his spear into the heart and pulled it out after having made the hole, imo.

Don't get me wrong, the gore isn't too much.. But, it seems to me like NRS tries to cram sooo much into each fatality. I would be happy with a scorpion fatality JUST being the flame through the chest with the heart dropping down.. or JUST the face slice. They both look great!
It seems like they just go, okay now lets add this, okay, now this and this and this!
Maybe im just nostalgic and like the classic fatalities where the character just does ONE really awesome thing. I don't need 3 fatalites crammed into one...

Yeah, I think there is "too much going on" because they seem two totally different fatality's. Should have been something like Sub-Zero's fatality, his makes sence. Freeze the body, blow the whole to get to the spine, break it and split the body. It's "logical". I had the same kind of idea for Scorpion as Jaded-Raven. Do something with the heart that appears. Fatality wasn't so disturbing as people made it out to be.

Remember when Baraka just hoisted you up on his blades and let you slide down? It was one of the few fatalities where someone was visibly prolonging suffering. It worked for him, showed us what he was all about.
I can't see Scorpion doing stuff like this (mind, this isn't as bad as ripping off two limbs with spears and casually taking a stroll up to them before snapping their neck). There's just no reason for him to blow a hole in their chest before slicing their face off. It's a great fatality - but it's gory for gore's sake, and I feel like it should belong to someone else, and that the heart should be crushed or something after it slides down rather than just hanging there.
Now if he did this from half-screen's distance, and opened it up by pulling them with a spear so hard they flew through the air, and did the face slice then, as they were in mid-air...that I'd be really on board with.

I can instantly improve Scorpion's fatality:
Instead of slicing the opponent's face off, when the heart drops down, Scorpion should throw his spear through it. It's cleaner and more in line with his background and history.

The "face-off" should be a standalone fatality.
I agree, something should be done with the dangling heart. There's a "plot hole" around it - pun intended.

I don't need to go out on a limb and apologize to anyone here or anywhere else that I've spoiled something for them, you're on an MK forum so you know you're bound to find leaks of certain aspects of the game somewhere down the line. You're taking a gamble by even coming here. Not calling anyone any names, not trying to argue with anyone here, let's just keep it classy please... If it's not me spoiling something, it's gonna be the next guy, and the people upset about it are going to say whatever is on their mind in their topic as much as this one.
To be fair, the fatality was shown to others on the show floor at E3.
Now that that's off my chest, I feel like Maximillian's description and reaction of the fatality was gorier than what is seen in the video. Then again he's not an MK enthusiast like most of us here, so we know what to expect. I expected more blood in the fatality but other than that it's really great. Like someone else said, I feel like this fatality would've been more suitable for some other character. I'm completely OK with the face slicing off part, but the heart flopping and chest protruding fireball is a bit overkill IMO. I love his other fatality better (from the reveal trailer).
I liked how in MK9 the camera panned away from the gore mess that was left behind, and the character went into a final pose, much like Smoke, Sektor, Scorpion and a bunch of others in MK9.

Also I'm kind of wondering what the point was in him blowing a hole through his opponent and the emphasis on the heart. I mean with the set up I was expecting him to spear grab his heart out of him or something.

I just love how Scorpion sticks to the chop pose for a bit. I'm more curious to see how this works on every character. And the little detail of Sub-Zero's mask falling off first is neat.

People who don't want to be spoiled can just stay away from threads like this. The subject is (was) pretty accurate.
Personally I was hoping for a Rickroll.
