A Look Back on MKX's Announcement: The Gunjumpening

So, i quoted a guy who said that he likes how "dark and fucked up" this game looks after NRS released first gameplay video. I thought it's funny how MKX turned out to be a total cheese fest like any other MK game rather than being whatever those moody teenagers expected it to be. And now you're saying to me the same thing that i said in this thread half an hour ago.
mkx isn't even that dark, tho

I thought you were agreeing with him. :confused:

I know that, i played the game before. Also, about Johnny, a lot of people were against his inclusion in the main roster, because he's a goofy character that doesn't fit in a new darker MK.
"new darker mk" doesn't exist. MK9 was supposed to be "new and darker" and it clearly wasn't. Nothing about this series has ever taken itself seriously except a portion of the fan base.

Well, they're half-right; this game has a big healthy smattering of Injustice in it. And they will learn to love it.. Muahahahah.


The thing I find hypocritical is that when some of the same mechanics were introduced in IGAU it was "can't wait for MK to come back, dashblock bro", but then MK shows up with non-cancelled dashes and no dashblock, pushblock, characters with crazy traits, get-out-of-the-corner interactibles, the injustice floaty-ish jumping style, a green-arrow-style character, a gigantic Bane/Grundy-looking character, flash's trait on Reptile, and 30 more things, and it's "Yooo hype MKX!!"

At the end of the day though, people who enjoyed both games are probably the real winners. They both have their own merits, and it's good to see MKX combine the best of both worlds.

That's because it's MK man... you can't contain the hype.

This is one of my many, many favourites. And it has 30 likes or something.
Nothing about my post is incorrect.

thats because I'm awesome and very likeable. And interactables are still stupid regardless of being able to block them. Make sure to send me a FR on PSN so I can throw my ice clone at your face. Ice clone throw= unbeatable.

Why did I quote this twice? Damn Ipad

Really likes to throw things at you.
I love everything about this thread.

On that note I admit that I was on the skeptical side about the lack of dash canceling at first, as can be seen in my status update page, but then I saw the God tier walk speed and running in action and I was sold.

I still don't like any of the new characters with the exception of Cassie and Kotal and would rather have classic characters in their place. But that's not going to change so I learned to live with that.

I didnt like injustice nearly as much for one reason injustice was more of watching then fighting. Yes interactibles are part of MKX but it doesnt break the flow like injustice.
Two things im glad arent back are wagers and stage transfers, I want a fighting game not stare at the screen just watching mid fight

With MKX only a week away, everyone is chomping at the bit to play this game! We've seen so much about the game, so many new characters and redesigns that make us love the old characters even more. Since the announcement of the game, we've gotten used to pretty much seeing all of these characters... but what were we like back when the game was announced? Here are some examples of gun-jumping at it's finest.

Before we jump onto guns, let us look back on the very first reply to the news of MKX at E3.



............well then, onto the main reason why we're here!









@Youphemism, being the most negative person ever, liked all of these posts. Even after interactables were confirmed blockable! I doubt this guy's even looking forward to the game, tbh.



.........

the rest of the thread is incoherency at it's best, due to hype/idiots. The point of this thread: Let's not be so hasty, come IGAU 2/MK 12 ;)

If this thread is more Komedy Central or Off Topic worthy, I'm sorry @ mods and request this to be moved to the appropriate section.
Yup. I was legit pissed when I first saw MKX. I have convinced myself to love it even though it looks like a super polished clay fighter, lol.
 
People be hella complaining about MKX lmao whether it is the looks of it or the characters gameplay and etc. Tbh I dnt really give a damn about what ppl do not like about it because it is my favorite series of all time period point blank and I will play it no matter what. #MK4LIFE #YEEAAAAPPP
Edit: Such atrocious posts mentioned by the OP lol, the things ppl say on this site.....
