This weekend was a huge one for NetherRealm Studios at PAX East. Injustice: Gods Among Us was on display for fans to play with Black Adam and Raven playable and the interviews keep flowing in. Jason24CF of EventHubs was able to get an informative interview with Producer, Hecter Sanchez. One of the best things about this interview is that the questions are coming from a Street Fighter player and addressing a few concerns.

First off, stage interactions and environmental objects but Hector explains that NRS flew out a ton of high-level tournament players to come in to the studio and test things so the interactions and environments would have the proper cool-downs and balance.

If any of you would be wondering how Harley Quinn could defeat Doomsay or Black Adam, Hector explains that it will all be explained in the game's story mode. And to anyone who hasn't been reading the Injustice prequel comic... NetherRealm's story-line is absolutely amazing so far.

Hector also mentions "online" and that there is a lot that hasn't been revealed yet. All of this and much more, check out the interview!

Most humble shit talker ever!!!
NRS should see it as a compliment since they actually know NRS puts thought and a certain amount of logic into things
Yeah and for the record i think its unfair that SF & Marvel Vs Capcom fans always asks NRS how can Harley Quin beat Wonder Woman when no one asks how somebody like Tron Bon or Chris Redfield can beat Magneto or Thor and Capcom isn't asked to explain it in the story

SF has been regarded as tournament viable for two decades now?

It took two decades for MK to become viable. LBSH
MK players cant talk about games being broken, because they are playing the most broken tourney game out there right now lol.

"I think this interview is great and informative, but I hate it because it was done by a capcom fanboy(I.e Capcom Community). #MKCFOLIFE"

Im really surprised no one has said that yet.

The 2D MK games were viable.. It was just the 3D ones that weren't...
MK started out in 2D. Still wasn't a "viable" game though.

I'm not trying to rip on NRS; I love their games, but they've only just began trying to appeal to the tournament audience. The obvious improvements from MKDC to MK9 to IGAU are something to admire and I firmly believe they'll eventually lead the FGC one day.
