Reading the "faction alts" thread made me come up with this idea, which was done in Street Fighter x Tekken, and i think it'd be pretty cool, with the playable characters cosplaying other unplayable or playable characters. Imagine:

-Mileena cosplaying Ashrah
-Jax as Hotaru
-Erron Black as Kung Lao
-Liu Kang as Rain
-Tremor as Reptile

And so on. The way it was done in SFxT i found really cool, since the characters just didn't wear the other characters' costume with no changes, but instead they wore it with alterations in a way that it fit the character's personality, IE: Mileena would wear a sluttier version of Ashrah's costume, etc. Now i'm not sure it'd fit the feeling of the game, since most of SFxt swap costumes ended up looking joke-ish but whatever.

I don't think I would. Pretty much only if the characters being swapped corresponded to each other in some way (i.e. Raiden/Fujin or Shinnok/Quan Chi)

After checking what you were refering to as I didn't know about that:

http://shoryuken.com/2012/03/08/street-fighter-x-tekken-complete-costume-gallery/

I have to say: No, thanks, but no thanks. In that game that was some kind of crossover and the kind of universes they both have (Tekken specially gets really ridiculous with customization and once you step away from the Mishima plot line most characters are a bit of a joke anyway), it's "acceptable" even though I didn't like it visually, but Mortal Kombat universe is no place for characters to cosplay as others unless they literally rip theis skin to wear the bloody thing over their clothes.

I would get it because I want to get all of the content for this game but I certainly don't want those.

I know a lot of people hate this shit but I would absolutely buy an "Alternate character pack" like how in Injustice there was a John Stewart alt for Hal Jordon, and there were Dick Grayson and Damien Wayne skins for Nightwing.

Pretty much a pack that swaps a character into another one in looks alone, some example would be like a Jade skin for Kitana, a Li Mei skin for Mileena, or a Bi-Han skin for Sub-Zero, stuff like that.

Swap alts where Deconfirmed like a month ago via Twitter. I thinks thats good because I wouldn ́t like that.

For me that would be the incorrect way to please a character ́s Fans because you only give them a costume of what they want, BUT you take away everithing that the Fans of the character Liked in first place.

I hated that idea in SF x TK , so I wouldn't want it in MKX

As much I as would love to have Frost back...the mere thought of her being an alt skin for Sub-zero is heresy sad
