Let's Talk About Skarlet Design

[ShepherdOfFire]

People seems to forget that if someone complains about something, it's probably because the person cares about what he complains. The OP said he loved Skarlet in MK9 and here he doesn't like the design, that's it, he's not "hating" on whatever you say. At first I didn't like the design too, but I rewatched the entire gameplay ect... after the stream, without the hype of the reveal, and now I do like it. If someone doesn't like a character design, he should complain about it, that's it.

@Raider I don't think they're gonna change Skarlet (or maybe just a few minor tweaks), because the majority of the people seems to like her design. But keep in mind that you'll have gear (and probably shaders too) to tweak her design and have something closer that you wanted. And I think Netherrealm will add gear similar to her look in the comics.

Nrs hates animating long hair. You guys excited for bald Jade?

Sindel deconfirmed??

Sindel deconfirmed??

I would actually love to see Sindel have more floaty hair like she did in MKD/MKA. Not just as a big clot of hair, of course, but the way it waved around in the air was really cool. It was kinda boring in MK9 and MKX how it was kinda shortened down and just down along her back. Also, by making it floaty, they wouldn't have to worry about it clipping through her as long they do it properly with collision boxes and such.

Didn't NRS do pretty well animating the capes in Injustice 2? I don't really remember capes clipping into the models like they did in the first Injustice. Maybe the same can be seen for long hair in MK11.

No! XD
They looked stiff and followed down the back of their bodies most of the time. Same with Starfire's hair. It wasn't very floaty or all that well done, imo.

But hey, NRS continues to improve from game to game, and maybe it'll be easier to do on the new engine. Who knows.

How about that voice though? I watched the video of all her intros so far and her voice is just perfect, its soft spoken but at the same time kind of threatening and badass. I love it.

She sounds so devious, I absolutely love it!

Did you also happen to catch that devious little grin she does during her fatal blow (or w.e they're called) when she stabs them in the chest? I love that too lol I am loving this character's personality.

I did, and yes, it's just SO GOOD!!!

 

[xiskza]

I wish her face got splattered with blood there

She should just have an intro where she makes that blood orb in her hand and then facepalm with it, so her face will be bloodsplattered from the start of the fights. XD

How can people not think she looks awesome... you all wack af

How can people eat junk food and support treason...?

>there's no accounting for peoples' tastes, nor for their stupidity

A bald Jade

[Metin]

Still boiling with hate and doesn't recognize her beauty?

 

[YoungTeezy 305]

I was trying to find a pic like this! The problem is the goggles plus the hat. I think either one would look great on their own, but together they make her look like an aviator! That said, anyone complaining about costume pieces must be forgetting that customization is a thing in this game...

Maybe she's a pilot in the story

I know its kind of a meme but I'd think they're likely to protect against all the sand in some areas of Outworld

yep, the googles Skarlet uses probably has the same function more or less as Kahn's outfit in the Star Trek 2 movie ... to protect of sandstorms in Outworld .... think about !

[Dogeofthesea]

NRS is proving to the world that they don't need over-sexualized-and-objectified females to sell their games. Some of you just need to get laid

 

[KeyserSoze]

Probably one of the best redesigns ever

 

[MKF30]

I loved her MK 9 design. Her MK 11 default is meh, but her alternate styles are awesome.

 

[Living Corpse]

I loved her MK 9 design. Her MK 11 default is meh, but her alternate styles are awesome.

The only thing I even dislike about her default is the headgear. Glade we can remove it.

 

[Vslayer]

I think it looks great, and not to mention there will be unlockable alternate outfits and pieces you can change and knowing NRS they must have added classic costumes in there.

 

[MKF30]

Same here lol. Like when I saw the head piece and the goggles I wasn't sure if it was her til she was using blood powers. I like the masks, but yeah same man. I'm replacing that with a ninja hoody or just the mask or something. I love how the system allows us to style her by the players preferences.

 

[Charybdis]

A phenomenal redesign. She went from being the least visually interesting character ("oh look more tits and ass, barely in red this time") to the most to me. If her not being 90% naked is a "political statement" instead of "making the character more interesting", then I suppose Baraka being jacked now is a commentary on environmental degradation?

If you need a lore explanation, her powers have now developed to the point where she can absorb blood psyionically with the use of her skin.
