I'm gonna be playing Bane and breaking all the puny Batmen over my knee again like in the good old days, thanks for reading.

Also if I'm dumb enough at the time, I might get the bad with money edition so I can replace boring rear end Hal Jordan with Phil LaMarr John Stewart.

Poison Ivy's hair looks really weird, like it's starting too far back on her head.

That sounds a lot like Steve Blum as Hal.

There's got to be some kind of corollary that once your voice cast goes up above a certain number of actors, Blum just kind of shows up.

He's in practically everything it's true, if he's not a main or side character, he'll be a generic mook at least.

I can't even formulate a decent list anymore of games where I'll just be going along and then I'll hear the Spike voice come out of some soldierman or another.

So, if I understand correctly, the host of this is a pro wrestler who does this as a side gig for fun. Who are the other people with him? Also wrestlers?

Yep, him and his other buddy there with him in a bunch of their videos are part of a 3 guy group called The New Day.



They're pretty goofy great goofy+great. He's also had their 3rd guy there (Big E) on to play junk with him too, as well as other random pro wrestlers that wanna mess around.

I'm surprised NRS didn't opt for Power Girl first and make Super Girl her DLC in that case. She seems right up their alley.

I mean they've taken pretty good leaps from game to game about how they make their lady characters, Sonya, Cassie, Jacqui etc. actually look cool in MKX and have outfits that don't make them look like strippers. Kitana, Mileena and the ninjas still have some titty to them but drat if it isn't a whole, whole lot better than they were just a game ago in MK9.

All of them were rough as gently caress at the start and have gotten better. The gulf between this and even MKX is huge, it's still impressive by how much they improved since then.

And the jump from Injustice to MKX was mindblowing. Like for anything you can fault Netherrealm over, it's not a lack of trying to improve.

Kotal Kahn getting chumped and looking like an idiot in MKX's story instead of joining hands with the special forces was legit bad. then again MKX is one big "haha I tricked you!!!!" especially with loving Scorpion; the Good Guys always fall for it.

Kotal and his guys were really the biggest missed opportunity of MKX, he had some of the neatest people in the roster on his side and they were mostly new characters too, Erron Black's cool, Ferra/Torr are cool, D'vorah is alright, Ermac's cool, Reptile is as ever doofy but good.

I know I'm a weirdo for liking Injustice 1 Joker but I for one thought this Joker looked real fun. Much like 1 he'll probably not be my main by any means, but I'll enjoy him if he plays near the same.

Also I kinda dig the whole 'crazy hobo style' he has going on.

Very much :same: to all of that, Injustice 1 Joker might have been bottom tier and hell 2 could be as well, but a character being bad has never stopped me from playing or enjoying them.

I hope Red Hood keeps up the trend of NRS DLC characters being strong so he's ubiquitous at tournaments.

It's kind of a toss-up on their DLC guys really, like the only problem entries in MKX were Tanya and then Alien, Jason was real good for a while but he kinda fell through. Injustice 1 obviously Batgirl was a menace and then Manhunter was crazy. MK9 I'm trying to remember, Kratos wasn't allowed so he doesn't really count, Freddy was good but Kabal and Cyrax were leaps above him anyway.

At least Kenshi I remember seeing a lot of.

Nah I remember everyone, I was just trying to think of the real goofy ones from each game, but yeah I always forget Kenshi was around too.

But pretty much the idea is that despite those couple in each game, the others were either fine/good or bad, so here's hoping Red Hood gets dealt one of those instead of getting to be Tanya 2.0 or something.

The whole fighting game scene is probably one of the most diverse and cool with it groups I've been around honestly, I don't know where people get all this "THE FGC IS SO BAD" stuff from either unless their only exposure to it is like particularly crap locals. The mention of trans stuff especially like what, Ricki Ortiz, Kayo Police, whatever Gllty's deal is, any time I've ever seen anyone say gross poo poo about them it's pretty much always met with an immediate "Go gently caress yourself" from like 100 different sides.
