Jacqui render reveal

Fujin!
I don't see what people have against Jacqui's default? It looks very similar to the type of stuff Cassie is wearing, and most people say she looks awesome.

Yet Jacqui wears something similar and all of the sudden it's BORING and BLAND, or "worse than MKX". Like what?

And i don't have problem with that... at all. That's who D'Vorah is as a character and like i said you love her or you hate her. She made impact! She did that in MKX! She is D'Vorah!
Vile, sinister and iconic after just one game.

Jacqui is just... there.
Dude I love D’vorah, she is amazing and I look forward to playing her too. It’s just, I think it was unfair to talk about Jacqui needing to be replaced by older fan favorites when in most cases people dislike D’vorah as well. It’s a slippery slope when developers start thinking requests first because you’ll lose more things that you actually liked than you expected.

"You won't winter over?" Who the fuck wrote that?
The fact that he thinks this skin rocks does not fill me with confidence about his opinion of other Jacqui skins. She looks like a random Cerberus goober from ME3.
Well, I mean he's a dev. He's not gonna go around saying his coworkers made a shit design. He's trying to hype up the game.

As far as my opinion goes. I think she looks fine. People are just bitching just to bitch at this point.

Are you trying to tell me that Jacqui deserved to be in MK11 more than D'Vorah or?? If yes, then let me just laugh for few seconds.

You didn't had to bring D'Vorah in this conversation AT ALL. Because this had nothing to with her, but you did. And you don't want to admit that you made a mistake.

D'Vorah being in MK11 after her role in MKX shouldn't be surprise to anyone. If it's a surprise for you then i don't know what to say.

First of all I don't think anyone thinks Cassie's costume by itself looks great. But everything else about her makes up for it -- her face, animations, flair, sunglasses, wittiness, and VA all ooze personality.

Based on MKX, Jacqui doesn't have any of those things. So what's left to make up for the similarly bland outfit? Nothing.

Could this change? Yup. Am I optimistic that it Will, having seen her outfit, overall design, and the role she plays in the story? Nope.

I actually like her costume, it's technological and also athletic looking. But the fact that her wrist guns are single-barreled and not double-barreled makes her LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE :p

I can't believe this character that almost everybody disliked gets an instant second chance whereas characters like Fujin, Havik, Reiko, Nitara etc., who were much better recieved by fans, remain ignored. I'm amazed!

DELETE this chick and bring in Sindel. The Queen is unique among the females in her looks and special powers, she enriches the roster. Or, bring in Nitara, who also looks unique among the MK females, and have her and Skarlet fight for blood.

MK is turning into guns, lasers and special forces.
If Sindel is not part of the DLC characters while Jacqui is in the main roster NRS doesn't deserve a single $.

The only explanation I have is that people actually played Jacqui in MKX. I didn't notice it, but they must have some sort of data to corroborate their decision to bring her back.

Eh. I'll take Jacqui any day over MK9 Skarlet, so. (MK11 Skarlet looks great however.)
She was one of the least played characters in MKX.
Ppl played her because of her shitty, spam variation. Ez wins.

Man, i was hoping they would knock her default skin out of the park because the hate her character recieves is reflective of how racist/misogynistic this awful fan base is. Sadly, it's pretty bland. Blegh.

Hoping her other skins are good and her personality shines in her gameplay reveal.
Man, I dunno, I think I'm probably the opposite of a mysoginist racist, but I still don't like Jacqui. Her being a non-objectified woman and a black person is not enough to make her also an interesting character.

What a day. What a lovely day.
Something just doesn’t look right about her in that render. It’s like she’s not detailed enough, especially when you compare her to the render of Cassie that came before.

Let's be clear. I'm extremely satisfied with MK11 and I don't mind if, out of a big juicy roster, there's a couple characters I feel indifferent to.

And feeling indifferent to a character in a fighting game is much better than disliking a character in a fighting game.
