I just wondering how exactly they have their heads up their asses when three games in a row, the guests have been the dominant sellers. Like, are they not supposed to give people what they want?
To clarify some things, I meant ass-head relations in regards to Injustice 2. They also have been doing the guest character song and dance for four games now, not three.
And yes, guest characters may have been welcomed in MK. But they faced semi-public backlash for including a second round of guest characters on top of the first with MKX. However, let's step over to what's relevant.
Injustice 1 featured one guest character, who sold well by comparison to the other DLC characters but was still questioned as to his inclusion compared to the rich universe of DC as a whole. The response to Sub Zero and Raiden has been quite less tame as the backlash has been more public and vocal over the use of MK guest characters compared to comic universe guests.
Given the questions they faced for Scorpion in IGAU and the backlash over Leatherface and Alien, you'd think they wouldn't rethought their position on guests seeing as how they had a thousand or so other characters from in universe to choose from. But buttock ear muffs provide great insulation, I guess.
As to their sales, whoop di doo. People buy DLC. This isn't news. People are also assholes, and likely inflated guest sales as public outcry was made. If we're addressing what people want, I'm pretty sure the community and interested non-investors thus far haven't been hoping for Raiden and Cage to be included.
