Considerations for MK2/10/X and why presentations can be just as important as gameplay.

[Xcalibur13]

Some people complain about the character models being ugly. I don't think they're bad, but I think it's more some of the backgrounds which are rather dreary. One thing I like about Japanese-made fighters like MvC3 and Soul Calibur IV is their aesthetic design; they opt to have visuals that flourish with bright colors. While I'm used to MK being gritty, it appears to be a slight turn-off when you look at how nice the other games look in comparison. It's realistic, but maybe too much.

MK9's graphics were gritty and pretty realistic but not to the point of being bland. They've always gone the more realistic route, anything other than that just wouldn't feel right.

Also I dont think bright colors would fit the style of MK because this is the most murderous and bloody fighting game

I agree with this. MK isn't a bright and cheery game, its dark and dirty. I personally find the models fine, so maybe people just need to adjust the color settings on their TV.

Is this what you want?

Poor Cammy, it's gotta be exhausting having to play yourself and 3 other characters!
