Would you like Ferra to be individually playable?

It'd be refreshing to play as a little person in a MK game. It'd require some work when it comes to animating her, like X-Ray moves being done on her, or Scorpion throwing his spear at a lower trajectory, but to me it'd be worth it.

It just seems like a waste for her not to be individually playable.

Nah, it would just prove annoying since most of the other characters' attacks would just go right above her head. It's an unfair advantage.

Since I'm still convinced she's an adolescent and not a little person...no.

Boon stated in one of those E3 interviews that she's an adult. I forgot which.

Fair enough. Still waiting on an explanation for her fucked-up speech patterns, then.

Maybe a weird challenge tower mission or something.

Jeez what is with you people? Every character has to be a standalone playable at some point eh? Tremor, No Face, Hydro, Art freaking Lean! And now a character who is already a playable character. She may not be the one we're making throw most of the punches but we still have some control over her.

Jeez I really did learn to be one of those cynical bitter MK fans through my run of hanging around here in 2010 and 11...gotta try to knock that off.

Only way I'd be fine with Ferra possibly playable alone is if she was playable for a match or so in the challenge tower or something but that's it.

No they don't. Some character designs are better off on the shelf.

Fuck no.

The next phase is acceptance. It'll always be this way. :D

I think Tarkatans and Oni (in Deception) talk in broken speech to Shujinko.
It's probably just an indication of her being feral or from some odd tribe.

And, no, I don't want her to be separate from Torr. At least, not yet.
Plus, I hate fighting characters with low hitboxes (like those goddamn bears in Tekken when they're on all fours.)

In all honesty; separating Ferra from Torr defeats the whole purpose of the character. If you take away Torr you just have an angry little lady with a couple of blades on her wrists and vice versa. Those two characters were created for the sole purpose of being together.

If you take away Ferra (Master) you have no Torr (Blaster).

What can she do? Punch you in the shin?

They do have a play style where Torr doesn't have Ferra. She stands along the side to watch.

You can't finish her, she's too small for Kotal Kahn heart rip fatality for example.

I want the female Tarkata in Baraka's MK9 ending as a playable character.

Yeah I can't remember the name of it, but Ferra is on the sidelines following and cheering for Torr.

It would be like Gon from Tekken 3, or Yoda from Soul Calibur 4. She's too small and it would be real unfair advantage for the player fighting her.

Not now; it wouldn't fit.

Hopefully, as the series continues, Ferra will age and grow taller. By then, she better be playable on her own.

Wouldn't be a good idea to have Ferra on her own.

Maybe if someone had made a fighting game which only includes midgets, then yes.
