ALso please refresh my memory...but um wasn't Sub a cyborg? I don't remember if he was with the gang when Sindel WTFowned them in MK9. Nevermind just watched the scene again. Damn. She owned them so bad lol. I remember being speechless first time I saw it.

Quan Chi's magic reversed the cyberization.

Plus NRS likely didn't want there to be a Predator look-alike when now they got the real deal soon to be added.

Other pc mods allow you to play as Baraka,Tanya and Rain.

The Tanya is only one moveset though I assume and not the three variations like her DLC will be, and it's just Baraka and Rain's MK9 movesets, so nothing too special. Just posted the demon Shinnok thing because I never saw his x-ray or fatality used against me when fighting him... x_x

I guess thats the downside of the way NR studios handle campaigns. I guess I'll take it.


I guess Sindel became weaker in revenant form and that the power-up she received from Shang's essence diminished after she was destroyed by Nightwolf's sacrifice in the last game. Only explanation I can think of, anyway. Either way, power levels tend to be all over the place in MK.

I guess there was that maybe, but plot-wise, why would Quan Chi turn Kuai back into a human? Because Kuai's supposed to be physically enhanced as a cyborg (as we saw when he defeated a Goro & Kintaro tag team in MK9), so what was there to gain from taking away from that? Weak explanation, but I know they did it because "muh community" (Cyber Sub-Zero was apparently pretty hated by fans compared to the regular), and perhaps because of that mentioned Predator reason.

Think I read that Raiden restored Kuai.

Most of everyone online is either a Liu Kang player or abusing Jacqui Brigg's spammable wrist mounted machine guns in her Shot Gun Variation. I can't even teleport to get out of it.

Don't believe I heard that, but if he did, I guess it was through the Jensei chamber or somethin'?

Thoughts on any of the arcade endings? From one of the last ones I unlocked, I love how Sub-Zero's is basically a How to Train Your Dragon, Lin Kuei edition. 😂

Kind of wish Boon and NR studios made a series with the engine >>

Yeah! SUbZero's was effin;' hilarious

Like a new series or something? Guess that would be a good idea, as they got plenty potential for that kind of thing now with their current budget, unlike when they were still Midway and their budget was crap.

Shang's return was pretty badass in Ermac's ending. Wouldn't mind that being canon, assuming Ermy himself is still intact, as he didn't seem to steal all of his souls, just enough to become stronger again.

Haven't seen all the endings yet, but I also liked Kenshi's, where he and Takeda come across Taven and free him, then Kenshi learning from him that Daegon was his wife's killer, and kills Daegon for also forming the Red Dragon.

Shujinko seemed out of character in Cassie's ending though. Going on assaults stealing souls like that.. Plus we never saw him train under someone like Shang Tsung to learn how to steal souls in the first place. Maybe he was still aging faster than we realized though and needed to do it to keep living. I dunno, but for the lolz, the ending should've had Damashi (Onaga's astral avatar) approach Cassie, telling her why she needs to collect the rest of the kamidogu, and then she later gets antagonized by Dark Raiden for continuing Shujinko's quest.

Oh yeah, forgot to check the newest comic before going to sleep earlier. I.. guess that's a more sensible explanation for Kuai becoming un-cyberized than whatever we had heard before. Glad we got that. Also liked Bo Rai Cho's appearance there, and Reiko approaching Jax... Even with all this Reiko himself (nor Havik) never even get mentioned in MKX's game story. 😕 If the comics are still canon as claimed, hopefully some future chapters will at least explain why we don't see them in the game.

Who is your favorite new character?
Gameplay and storywise as well...

Hm... Hard to say now, but I know Cassie, Takeda, and Jacqui have all grown on me more, and to a lesser extent, Erron Black.

Now that I've seen/unlocked the rest of the arcade endings, holy shit @ the One Being appearance in Shinnok's ending. Practically devoured the Elder Gods.

Exactly what kind of cursed skull was it Jacqui had acquired in her ending? At first I thought it was some kind of vampire skull, but now I'm not sure what that was.

Erron Black's ending was kinda cool also, especially if it's semi-canon in the sense that he really did have his aging process slowed down by Shang Tsung.

The rest of the endings I/we haven't brought up were pretty meh, like you said.

My girlfriend just got sick so I said "Take your time to recover..."

Then I went to the store and got my copy for ps4....haermm

Some people have no life

Veteran players from MK 9, injustice. THey probably followed the game thoroughly.

Im over 200 wins and something like 180 losses.

Played it for about 2 hours this morning.

Only did single fights tried some of the characters.

Game looks amazing! I love how good the models look!

Erron Black is great! Only used the rifle version so far cant wait to play the other ones.

Scorpion's inferno version is fun to play.Lovin the minion grab special.

Sub-Zero grandmaster is superb!

Ermac mystic version is really nice!

Quan Chi warlock is ok...expected better.

Others I played Kung Jin(Bojutsu)Takeda(lasher,shirai ryu)Kotal Kahn(sun god on the first try he was kinda meh)Kenshi(possessed)Johnny Cage(stunt double)Jacqui(shotgun)Goro,Dvorah(swarm queen)

Most of the characters play pretty well though I didnt have time to go into all of the combos.

Awesome game!

As a mostly Cage main now, I find his a-list variation the best. Stunt double is meh, but I guess it has its uses also.

Do eventually want to become more adept with some of those I became partial to in MK9 like Ermac too though when I find the time to study Ermy and such more.

Vaguely heard something along the lines of this yesterday, but glad to have that cleared up if this'll be the case, especially if it means my Sareena will be recognized by senpai NRS for her (I assume) growing popularity elsewhere.

Though I do still kinda find Fujin lame as a god, I did feel sorry for his fans when it seemed like an inevitability at first that he'd be included on the roster. I mean yeah, he didn't do much in the story like with most of the other NPC's, but neither did say, Ferra/Torr.
