I think the worst offender was the most recent Tekken having the Governor from The Walking Dead being in the game because uhh reasons?
It was Negan, a completely different character from the Governor. He's pretty much the most iconic TWD character outside of Rick, and maybe Sneedus Feedus (who's original from the show). Not that it makes more sense to have him, but still.
 
Sometimes it's a meme so stupid that can make you enjoy the game a little bit.


I've developed a masochistic relationship with MK1. I dunno if I really love it or I'm just trying to justify myself paying for it. Clocked more hours into i than MK11 but I guess the less grind for shit has made the numbing of online play less painful. The one thing I see this being kept alive is if the bring in the Kharacter mashup's from the last chapter of them story mode. It would be so awesome to combine Kharacters like Melinna and Reiko for a like a faster/more maneuverability glrappler fighter. Or Scorpion and Kenshi for long combos with Kenshi's clone with scorpion's spear for repositioning. I know it probably won't happen but it would be smart of WB to make it happen. Though I feel they have Ed boon on an extremly tight leash.
 
That would explain the "Saturday Morning Cartoon" aesthetic Mk1 has.
Ironic because MK did actually have a Saturday Morning cartoon that no one liked apparently.

Also kinda oxymoronic considering MK being so gory. It's like the time they made an SMC on Rambo of all things.
 
Imagine paying real money for skins in Mortal Kombat
Imagine paying for loot crates in Mortal Kombat
Imagine paying for fatalities in Mortal Kombat
lol, lmao! cannot be me!
Also, the whole gimmick of movie and cameo fighters is old and done at this point. What made it special in MK9 was that there was only one of them(2 if you played on PS3) and they both fit the MK universe like a glove. Why the fuck would a Xenomorph be in the game, what does it add? If I wanted an autistic mashup of my favorite characters fighting each other, there is already a much better game with more characters. It's called Mugen
The xenomorph can make  some sense because it's an alien. Even MK has to have aliens in the universe somewhere. Plus we got Predator and he fit in perfectly. What was retarded was having fuckin Freddy in 9(along with Kratos on ps3), Jason and Leatherface even if they fit aesthetically, Arnold and Stallone, and the fucking Joker because Injustice I guess.

Out of all the guests, literally only 2 made any sort of actual sense and fit in with the world to some degree.

Only reason they ever did guest characters is because it brought in money from normies because they don't even give a fuck about "le ebic blud and goots" anymore. And they certainly don't give a shit about fighting games in general.

I maintain that if these fuckheads wanna cram outside characters into their game, they should just bend over and take the CapCock and do what they need to get someone like Akuma in.

I think Freddy was a good choice, considering you can headcannon his existence in the MK universe via him being some entity from the Netherrealm. Every other guest appearance sans for Predator(and xenomorph I guess since they're a duo, even if I still find it's inclusion retarded) was cringe and bluepilled.
Also, if normalcattle only cares about guest fighters, wait till they get a load of MUGEN and all the FREE DLC that game has to offer.

Fair point on Freddy.

And mugen is too niche for the cattle to get into, let alone even know about. Plus those games tend to be far more hardcore and would immediately scare anyone that isn't a bit of a sweatlord away immediately. These are people who's experience with fighters is mostly just going on youtube and searching "all super arts/fatalities/combos/ALL STORY CUTSCENES" and then talking like they've competed at Evo.

That's because EVERY fighting game cartoon at the time was bad.

Darkstalkers in particular had their own Chris Thorndyke before Chris Thorndyke was even a thing, and the character designs were fucking attrocious.

Trailer for Omni man. Yea, my reaction is a shrug at best. I really hate guest characters.

I don't mind guest characters (to an extent), but I still don't get why put 2 evil Superman characters in the same game, let alone the same roster? It just doesn't make sense except for recency bias. I admit that I'll probably ask for something like Pennywise, Pyramid Head from Silent Hill, Pinhead (the non-troon version, even if transgenderism fits with Pinhead's theme), Doom Guy, Carl Johnson, etc. Variety is very necessary.

Hell, I'd probably ask for Xena the Warrior Princess, or Beatrix Kiddo (The Bride from Kill Bill, for the uninitiated), but I know this game's track record with the female form altogether since MK11.

Eh Omni man isnt 100 percent evil. He's basically Superman if Superman was a patriotic soldier for an imperialistic krypton. He kills people to accomplish objectives and prove a point.

I figure they put him in because of the death battle fight.

I agree, but the general point of mine is that 2 Superman based characters just seem unnecessary, one is enough on it's own.
 
Game crashed? Enjoy some more bloat!
