The incredible introvert
don't know if anyone else has pointed this out but I feel cybernetics variation borrows from cyrax, just a teeny bit with the grenades first things I thought were his B2 and MB bomb

There is no such thing as an unbiased opinion. It's an oxymoron. Like a boring Kano or an original ninja.
There is totally a such thing as an unbiased opinion. It's the act of not playing favorites, and viewing something without emotions.

Opinions are the only thing that can be biased or unbiased. You can't have an unbiased fact because regardless of your preference, a fact remains a fact.

Saying you like ninjas more is your bias.

An unbiased judgement is not based on opinions but on a fair and even handed approach reached through logical methods.

Declaring your favor for Kano or smoke can only be reach through personal biased taste.

You missed the point. The fact that I like ninjas more is my preference. Yet, in spite of that, I still believe it took more creative thought to come up with Kano than a character that is just a different color Scorpion with a few new moves. Had my observation on Kano been biased, I would have allowed my ninja fanboy-ism to unfairly judge in favor of palette swaps. So in spite of my preference (we all have them), I still gave Kano credit were credit is due. This is getting way off topic now and I could see how you can interpret my statements as biased, but if that were the case, I would have just said "Kano sucks" and called it a day. Moving on.

From the dictionary:

I did like hes first 2 modes, he doesnt look like he will be free like in MK9, maybe he will be a solid mid tier this time around. Good work. Hes normals still look slowish. K I T A N A now plz next char must be her.

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
He walks up with it in his hands, so its clearly not keeping him alive. I'm sure Kotal just cuts in and yanks a heart out same as everyone else.
I noticed after rewatching, however the metal piece where it hooks up is still binded to his chest literally so either way Kotal Kahn will have to remove it or just cut around it to rip out his heart. Apparently this amps his heart probably increasing his life and strength. He'll probably just cut around it my guess.

Looks neat though.

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
Traffic light confirmed.

LMAO, good one. You should use that in your signature. Speaking of which, his commando style trying to figure out is that Scorpion because those boots don't look familiar to me. hmmm
 
well if I was @NetherrealmStudios working with the guys I would have put (12 already known chars) Sindel Ermac Noob Smoke Scorpion Sub Rain Reptile Reiko Fujin Shinnok Quan... they have lot of potential and they r really cool to develop cos u can create cool moves on their powers... leave old grandpa (kano) home for this MK... we had him since the 1st one... cmon!
Kano is amazing men, wtf are you saying

Rewatch Kotal's fatality again, everybody gets the same big red "tear" across their chest regardless of what they're wearing. He's not going to make any sort of accomodations for Kano.
 
Random thoughts-

Music reminded me of blade runner somewhat and had a really dark/serious/sinister feeling. Dunno if that's just because it's Kano or if they're really pushing the "This one will be darker" thing. I hope it's the latter.

Stage is gorgeous.

Design is good, although the knives look...off(how the hell are they staying on?). Also laser face mode doesn't have knives, while the other two do.

Styles-

Angry Angry kano: Seems like classic kano. Knives+balls. Not much else to say.

Laser Face Kano: Interesting. We don't really see the laser used to zone at distance except as an AA, and do see double grenades/knives/whatever at one point, so i'm guessing he might not have just a straightforward laser. Cyrax bomb EX is fine on him since it's a decent combo extender. Air ball to low is REALLY cool to see and gives me hopes for his overall approach game.

Karate Hug Action Kano:
Throw 1: combo'd into, knee bash throw, leaves opponent KD and kano with slight advantage. Decent distance away. Looks ok.
Throw 2: EX'd, done point blank, choke/stab thing, Slight advantage, very far away. Needs to deal good damage.
Throw 3: Counter high to clothesline. Seems to have a decent startup/active time(can't tell). Leaves him about jumping distance away at slight advantage.
Throw 4: Counter low to stab. Same as above. Both of them seem really meh. Counter moves tend to be poorly done in lots of fighting games, and these don't seem to really keep him nice and close like a grappler would want. Granted most grapplers don't get an air kano ball either so maybe that's on purpose. Concerned about these either way.
Throw 5: Hugz. Combo'd into, leaves him close to his opponent with some advantage. Seems like a nice ender.

Hopefully the style turns out ok. I'm mildly concerned it'll be underwhelming from what we've seen, but it's of course always hard to tell anything from these vids, and so early in development.

Random thought- do we have ANY footage or a run combo? They talk about how cool the system is for combos but i've yet to see a single example of one in any of these videos(that I can think of at least).

"You don't like what I like so you suck"..... and we're the ones that are 12?
I have to agree with you, I was just ignoring his/her ignorance.

Saying that somebody not liking something makes them a 12 year old makes him/her seem like an 8 year old. I wasn't going to say anything, but, you I agree with you :p

Kano is back, NRS is awesome. So everybody be grateful AND SHUT THE FUCK UP
I don't like Kano. Didn't know that was a crime.


However, I still haven't complained, and won't because I welcome him for others.

That being said, you demanding others to shut up because you got what you want....well, that's childish, selfish, self-centered, and quite frankly one of the most irritating things about a lot of MK fanboys (myself included when it comes to some things).

ridicolous....they put in the game the most insignificant character of all time... damn, they can't understand the have to focus on other chars like ermac or noob saibot instead of this s++t. no one care about kano! i'm sorry they wasted time developing a char like him they could have put anyone more interesting and cool
Ummm, he's insignificant how? He's a major part of MK.

I hope you're prepared to flee for your life when Kano fanboys come breaking down your door. Besides, Kano was one of the first seven playable characters to lead off the Mortal Kombat series. That's hardly "insignificant."
Although I agree that he is significant, and a pretty major part of MK...However, just because someone's an original, it does not make them significant.

Kano was one of the original 7 characters and plays an integral part in the storyline. Noob Saibot was created somewhat as a joke (his name alone is proof of that), as well as Ermac (who is my favorite character, btw).

Calling Kano insignificant is ignorant.
I wouldn't say making them from a, or inspired by, a joke is a bad thing...it seems like you were trying to use that against his argument. I don't agree with his/her argument, however, I don't agree with your "He's a joke, he's less significant" argument either.

I'm really sorry, dude, but i'm personally offended by this phrase. It's an oxymoron. There's no such thing as an unbiased opinion, because an opinion, by its very nature is BIASED.
No it's not. An opinion is a view of something formed by "something," meaning anything. Facts, your personal believe, or anything you want it to be based off from.
