Ok..I THINk I have the right forum for this topic..lol
We've heard talks from Boon interviews that he and the team are very interested in taking MK in different directions and exploring new genres with the game. That's pretty evident in puzzle, chess, and now Shaolin Monks coming out. So my question to you is, what genre, or already existing game, would be great with an MK theme to it?
My answer is an MK style Diablo 2. And overhead type hack and slash adventure that spans different realms, requires some teamwork online, and has a vast ammount of items to find and equip your characters with. Characters level-up of course.
You could play as the forces of good (Outworld armies, Earthrealm explorers, maybe even a Seidan guard) or evil (a member of the Tarkatan hordes, a wraith from the netherealm, a shadow priest, a member of Shao Kahns militia that went freelance, etc). Of course, if you do find rival parties, you can fight them.
I just think it would be really cool exploring the ancient beetle lair, encountering massive hordes of tarkatan, defeating them, and gaining whatever secret treasures may be inside.
An entirely do-able project. What are your ideas?
I'd like to expand on this idea. In regard to the playable characters. Let's say you pick an alliance for example Earthrealm's warriors. If you pick Liu Kang you start off with basic punches and kicks for when you click and hold the mouse button down on the enemy. Your basic skill would be the flying kick and the fireball. As you progress through the game you can obtain different items of clothing that benefit Liu Kang. So in other words you can watch Liu Kang change from his Mortal Kombat 1 appereance all the way to his modern day appereance.
If you ever played Diablo 2 you would know how the special moves would work in this game.
I like that idea alot.
