True. They did release Goro's render, but, apart from that, they might not be finished with him in different aspects (variations).
We may get his variation game play at Tokyo Game Show, if someone from NRS is there.

We might just have to wait until the Brazil convention.

At least people are talking about it... I mean yeah things could be better, but I take it as a good sign when customers come in and talk to me at work about MKX.

Chill out. Yes, it's been a while since we've gotten anything substantial, but more will come eventually(although the sheer fact that Goro is *in* the game as a playable character is pretty substantial in my eyes, but whateves).

Bitching about the slow pace of reveals isn't going to speed anything up. Relax and enjoy the ride. wink

I'm literally fucking pissed. Goro is the only returning character that managed to excite me and the fact we probably will have to wait for a trailer for God knows how long. Goro making the cut as a playable character is a MUST SEE for me.

I could've waited till next April for a Raiden trailer tbh.

We still have seven months left. There's no need to rush everything. The next two months have great games coming out, why not put your attentions on them? I'm currently distracting myself with Destiny.

Thing is, I'm glad that they're not releasing every single thing about this game. Why get so hyped up about a game that still has seven months to go? Wouldn't the hype pretty much be gone by the time the game is released? It would for me if everything got released. Yeah, there are those who want the entire game spoiled for them, whether it's because that's how they want it to or just that the hype is gone for them. Thing is, not that many people agree.

Since this is obviously how they're releasing information to us, might as well just suck it up and get use to it. We have seven more months of waiting. Time doesn't fly that fast.

Nah bro I complained then too
Good, for me atleast. I don't want to see a lot of shit about the game before I play it. I know some people would like to see tons and tons of videos, and character reveals every other week. Showing all their variations, and how to play as them. But that too fucking much, they don't want to show everything. It's like when a movie comes out. Who the fuck wants to watch a trailer that shows the beginning, middle, and end of the movie? There's no anticipation, you know nearly everything or atleast too much. Holding off is good, people just need to calm down and do something else with their lives until more reveals happen. Expecting things all the time is your own fault, not NRS'.
They have the tumblr page, They could always show stage koncept art for the other three stages revealed, More Variation picture weeks with Kotal, Ferra/Torr, Cass and Scorpion.

Just saying they have padding they can use in between reveals and so far they're doing that.

Couldn't agree more with this. The entitlement is off the charts. If you don't like what you're seeing, don't buy the game. If you don't like what you're not seeing, be patient. This "but I want it NOOW, daddy!" shit is really annoying.

I've never seen someone complain about having more information about something they intend to spend money on. Not even here.

Yeah I agree it can be frustrating. Kinda feel like we have nothing to talk about which is annoying. But then again the game is a long time away so I'm okay with a lack of content. The wait would just feel so much longer if we were constantly teased with little bits of info. Also I feel like mystery builds hype.

The trailers they've released suck, while its nice to see the moves detailed, they are just boring. That besides the fact that it always look like my granny is the one playing. Out of all of the videos we have seen, the only one with decent gameplay is the one from the german site.

In the last two months or so before release is when well get more reveals, and I think that is ok. I do hope we get a trailer for eatch character as most fighting games do

I'm not going to diss you post at all here, more-less of a question.

What if no one really plays any other games? I know most people do, but, there are always the odd balls.

Which is actually my case at the moment. I moved and left my ps3 behind, and I'm too poor to get a new console now, im saving to buy it when MKX drops. But I think the pace at which they reveal trailers is ok, as I said before, it is the trailers themselves the thing they are not doing right

Well, you have other things to do to occupy your time such as going outside and enjoying the change from Summer to Autumn as an example. I just threw out the other games as an example that I'm currently doing (while also job hunting and drawing as well.)

Loads of other stuff to do to occupy yourself from going bonkers waiting for something to be released by these guys.

I have to agree on this. They have been much slower at revealing this time,with 11 million ppl watching the first trailer,they should have done more to keep ppl interested like talk about a new feature or another stage. With at least 14 kharacters left in 7 months,we should get 2 reveals per month.
