Female Fighters

Why is it odd? And yes, back in the 90s super alpha dudes in arcades hated losing to female characters because they were looked at as weak.

Really thinking y'all are young dudes with the mentality in here so I'm respectfully bowing out of this thread. You can PM me if you like about the subject.
I'm 27 bruh. I spent almost my whole childhood in an arcade and I don't remember that at all?

It doesn't, at all. Like I said, I'm not hating on it, I just find it odd and don't understand it.

I have no problem playing female characters as a male, and I just find it plain odd when female players go out of their way not to play male characters.

well think about it...fighting games are one of the few genre were you can always play as an awesome female character and body everyone. Most video game lead characters are men. So if a chick wants to play as a cool girl it makes sense they'd make the most of it in a FG.

Why do mods change titles of threads for NO reason? This thread is about Female Fighters, NOT "Women in MK X". This thread was never meant to be a fucking civil rights discussion.
Exactly what I thought. The subject was much more simple, but I guess everytimes it goes downhill to this.

But on a more serious note why in the fuck small fast female chars hit this hard on NRs games? Batgirl why did she do 60% meterles? More than Batman a male and much bigger char?

I dont mind impossible to hit hurtboxes to a point but at least make them bitches do less damage and have less range on their fucking normals.

Did you play in South Jerz or South Philly?

Different parts of the country maybe? I'm not sure there point you're trying to make. Experiences may vary?

Sure.

I guess my point is I don't understand picking a character that you might be more likely to loose with just because they share your gender.

Most don't choose their character because they think it gives them a better chance of winning. Most pick their main based on aesthetic criteria. Occupation, moral alignment, clothing. Gender is one.

I would have thought it was a combination of both.

To choose a character based exclusively on aesthetic characteristics remains odd to me.
I pick my main characters for a combination of things, like Sonya. She has been one of my mains since the older MK games and is one of my absolute favorite MK characters for a number of reasons.

Aesthetically, I think she's gorgeous and hot as a blue-eyed blonde. Women with a tough play-hard-to-get personality are really attractive to me. Military-themed characters are cool. Her playstyle suits me because I only play rushdown characters. In this game, I think this is her best iteration ever. Tough, General of a military group, MILF, 50/50s, garrote, drones and grenades. The only thing she lacks is the boobs, because she suffered a drastic breast reduction here. But yeah, I really like this character.

Fair enough, no argument there.



Please stop calling me habibi.

Where is it confirmed she is a symbiote and not just pals with Torr?

Outworld seems to be a 'realm', not a different universe just a different part of our universe, and not another planet. It doesn't matter, since she is human...

All credible sources list her as human. Do you have something that shows she is not?

I agree with your point that Outworld has different beauty standards...but she is still just human.
It's confirmed in the traditional tower ending for Ferra/Torr. Ferra and Torr are the same species. When Ferra comes of age, she will become a behemoth like Torr is currently.

Also other sad shit I'd rather not bring up :(

If this is true (I doubt it is), then they are fools! There's nothing more thrilling then when your drool freezes over while rocking Sub0's arctic ass. :rolleyes:

Dude almost every male character in this game has a shaved chest. Jax, Erron, Kotal, hell even GORO has a shaved chest lol.
Kota is strange, I'm not sure if dudes even human. Jax has metal arms, dude obviously gets a pass. Erron Black is a Ninja cowboy so he gets a pass too. I don't think you can see Errons upper chest, can you? Some people just don't grow as much chest hair as others :(

Females should deal less dmg in general due to smaller hitboxes. Large ones should deal more dmg due to large hitboxes. Seems like its opposite xD.
Ferra has such a low dmg per hit.

Also, Frost, yea. She looks cool. They just must not make her a whimp. They managed to do it to almost every evel character in MKX storyline. lol
Especially Quanbitch.

Quan Chi's D3, 14 is a true block string but it doesn't jail female characters, or at least the ones with a small hitbox.
You gotta D3, RC, 14 in order for it to jail and frankly it's a pain in the dick when you're balls deep in a rune trap and you have to remember you have to do the run cancel.
