Oh hey Tusk from KI joins the fray!

Huge tusk vibes. I'm a huge Conan and big sword guy so I'm pretty excited. A reflect too? Tyvm. Very weird hit animations though

Tusk wasn't this stiff, I'm hoping for some more polish on release come Jan

Out of all the guest this is easily the one I am most stoked for. In fact outside of MK guests I think this is the best guest since Freddy. I love the Conan books and comic, and the arnie films of course. I think not only dose he hit in perfectly in MK. wielding a massive sword is actually new to modem MK. So he could play very differently to others in mk1.

As soon as conan was announced I was super keen and this little trailer just looks so good. Can't wait!

 

[PrinceGoro]

Animations???

Conan is a decent guest,especially compared to the kp1 guests, but jesus christ the animations look bad even for nrs standards wtf. Curiouse if he will be as open as ghostface is.

 

[xenogorgeous]

oh yeah, fuck yeah, Conan !!

Cannot wait for the gameplay trailer and the next KK !

I'm ready, bring him, NRS !!

 

[Krasiox]

Only positive about the animations is we might be going back to MKX formula for next game

 

[Juggs]

From the little gameplay they showed, the character I get vibes from the most is Wonder Woman from Injustice. But could just be because of the sword
¯\(ツ)/¯

 

[kantboy2]

My new main or my new alt; I find out next month.

 

[Vulgar]

Oof. Animations could use a little work.

God maybe my age is showing here, but I could honestly care less about Conan. I will say that deflect is clean af though. Maybe the full trailer will win me over but I’m more excited about the T1000.

 

[Felipe_Gewehr]

The animations look as bad as Homelander's lmao. Seems like a character full of juggles and launchers, curious as to how he will break the game next.

 

[SaltShaker]

I'm so uninterested I won't even lab this guy in fear of selecting him in the menu.

Oh hey Tusk from KI joins the fray!

You mean you couldn't care less, just so you know.

 

[TarkatanPeriodontik]

why don't they have more follow through on the animations. For example when he does the combo ender where he swings the swords around in a circle, why does his animation look so stoic and stiff. This applies to a lot of the animations, why is this a through line in MK characters? It doesn't seem purely aesthetic, like is there a technical limitation

Nah I said what I said. There’s some interest in me, but not enough to really care. I feel like people would have been more receptive if it was Kotal.

BUT… Kotal hasn’t done shit. He’s more imposing in the MKX comics than the actual games so I can see why they wouldn’t add him… But Conan the Barbarian is definitely… a choice. Gotta please the older gens somehow I guess.

Bro I'm 31. No one from my peer group gives a fuck about Conan. My older cousins are all in their mid 40s and they only kinda know him. To them he's knock off He-Man and the less cool Xena Warrior Princess.

This was for Ed Boone and no one else, I'd guess. There's probably 30 or so Conan Fans and maybe 9 of those are MK fans.

 

[Eldriken]

I'd honestly prefer Kotal over Conan.

God these MK1 guests are so ass. The only one I was truly excited for was Ghostface.

MK characters over guests forever baby! But you know the deal. Guests = money and WB must have money.

 

[Marinjuana]

I think Conan is actually a hype pick. That old movie is phenomenal.

And they got to reuse animations for Arnold
