If you don't know what I'm talking about back then when SF2 reached high popularity everyone and their mother decided to make something to either rival or copy them, One of these games was Art Of Fighting and when it was released it stared Ryo Sakazaki of now KOF fame, At first everyone kinda Shunned him for being what people called a Orange Ryu or a Ryu Knock off and he kinda got known as that for a while, but as the years went by he got more character development and garnered some fans of his own and isn't look as much as a Ryu clone as he once use to.

You ask why bring this up? Well because I see the same thing happening to Tremor what happened to Ryo, When Special Forces came out and we first laid eyes on Tremor people though "Psstf nothing but a Brown Scorpion" And was kinda label as such from then on, But due to his recent announcement for MKX he like Ryo will now have a chance to prove that he isn't just a Brown Scorpion . . . . . or will he be?

So all in all Is Tremor basically Ryo Sakazaki in this situation in that people dislike him form a unoriginal design stand point and is going through the same hard phase that Ryo did and depending on MKX will change?

or

Do people dislike him for another reason and it's different from the Ryo/Ryu situation?

Just wanted to know people's thoughts and if they also made this connection

From what I have read people are mad at:

1. Him being labeled and sold as a classic character

2. Him being in over another MK character they wanted in

3. NRS seemingly listening to the petition signers.

Don't care, im digging tremor, and I don't think he is going to be a Scorpion knockoff, based on his walking sounds he likely still has earth based powers, which is unique IMO, not something I have ever seen in a fighting game before I don't think.
Well most of the MK Pallette swaps except Human Smoke in UMK3/Trilogy had unique moves at the very least, and Tremor had different moves from Scorpion. The Street Fighter pallette swaps are still very similar outfit and moveset wise.

As far as Ryo though in some games he seems to still be sorta similar to Ryu moveset wise.

And yet people claimed SNK was Capcom's true rivals when half of people don't know there characters lol, He is from a game called King Of Fighters or you might recognize him from the Capcom vs SNK games
