I'm perfectly fine with Lao being the strongest kameo for now. At least Lao doesn't force you to block for an extra 10 seconds while you eat an extra helping of chip damage and block pressure while your opponent builds multiple ticks of meter. I would rather every player pick Lao kameo until the...

So if your opponent blocks F211 (or F311) while crouch blocking, they're jailed standing afterwards which means they have to respect a high hitting kameo followup like Kano knives. In the case of Kano knives, it frametraps them into respecting another high followup like F3.

Anyone else experiencing negative edge even when it's turned off? For example, if you do Reptile's 1,1 forceball too fast then it comes out as 1, spit. You have to slightly delay the forceball input for it to come out properly.

Who cares if it breaks a few combos? People are going to find broken shit after launch anyway, you might as well make the movement feel snappy while you iron out the kinks. I've had enough of MK feeling sluggish and unresponsive. The game feeling good to play in your hands should be priority...

Just because I choose not to defer my judgment to high level players doesn't mean I think they're lying or delusional. So far I've seen some things I like and don't like about this game; I already said I'm withholding judgment until I know more but I'm still concerned despite what anyone else...

This is what worries me. It's great we're getting SOME aspects of MK9 back but if the game doesn't feel good to play in my hands (which 11 did not for me for these exact reasons) then I have cause for concern. Like I said, I'm withholding judgment until I know more but this is a big red flag for...

People will overlook a game's glaring flaws in early impressions due to hype clouding their judgment, and high level players are no different.

I'm skeptical of the people saying it feels like 9, especially what we've already heard about dash blocking. I think some people are just desperately hoping for a fun MK game after how much of a snoozefest 11 was. I'll withhold final judgement but the more I see of the gameplay the more it just...

I'm cautiously optimistic. Everything looks great, but I worry that it's going to have the same stiff feeling as 11 where everything you do has a ton of recovery with no buffering. I hope that isn't the case. I just want that MK9/X control snappiness back.

I don't want any female guest characters. I don't want any male guest characters either. Bah humbug get off my lawn.

What a waste of time lol

Please no more break away, just go back to breakers. They worked perfectly fine. NRS needs to focus on changing things that actually matter, like finally doing something with the stance switch button and get rid of 50/50 throw breaks. I'm just speculating but he probably enjoys focusing more...

I don't believe that Boon has zero creative control over the music. He has the kind of leverage to get the music that he wants. Either he doesn't really care or pay attention to the music or he has bland taste. Even the music they licensed for the character trailers is better than the music in...

If only. I hate how boring the music is in MK11. Why are MK's OSTs going in this direction? I didn't like MKX's OST either but it was better than this ambient trash. The music in a fighting game is supposed to be full of energy to get you amped up for some action. Who the fuck is getting pumped...

Why even call it Mortal Kombat at that point? Fuck I hate Hollywood.

God I wish modern MK games had good music. I didn't like MKX's ost but credit where credit is due, at least it was distinct enough that I remember quite a few of the tracks years after playing it. MK11's music is so forgettable that I can't hear a single track in my head besides the menu music...

I'm shocked at how good some of it looks, but I hope this birthmark stuff actually pays off for it warranting such a story change and a new character. Jax even says in the trailer that it isn't a birthmark, it's an invitation. So someone in the story is going around branding babies because they...

I kind of envy those who actually like this game. If MK9 had this kind of support back in the day I simply wouldn't have done anything else with my life.

I like that NRS changes things up, I just wish they would change up the right things. Feels like all too often NRS tries to fix shit that ain't broke. I appreciate the attempt of switching up the meter system, since now high level play can actually see Xrays with Fatal Blows. It's too bad they...

This whole situation does not inspire confidence but whatever, I win either way. If this ends up terrible then I can laugh and make fun of it but if it's good then that's even better.
