Despise it.
Loathe it.
Hate it.

The Kombat Pack 2 roster has (supposedly) been leaked.


Khaaracters:
  • Kano
  • Noob Saibot
  • Sareena
  • Harley Quinn
  • Deathstroke
  • Doomslayer
Kameos:
  • Rain
  • Bo Rai Cho
  • Moloch
  • Hsu Hao
  • Drahmin


All of these rule except Sareena

But I guess they made Li Mei seem cool so I'll reserve judgement

The issue I have with Doomguy is that he doesn’t talk, and so much of MK’s charm is in the characters interacting with each other. Yeah, alien/predator/jason/leatherface didn’t talk either, but that was several games ago and characters are far more chatty now.


All of his voice lines will be muffled screaming

This the first time in 28 years that Reptile has looked this good in an MK game. Jesus Christ.

Hey, I thought he looked pretty good in Deadly Alliance


And then I went to google for a refresher and yeah, this is the best he's looked since MK3 lmao

Liu Kang: "Ah yep, gonna remake the realms, make sure everything is perfectly balanced. We got Earthrealm and Outworld, natch. Kitana needs a place to live so we gotta set up Edenia, and then we obviously have to have Netherworld to go with it. And who could forget Orderrealm? Yep, everything perfectly balanced, yin and yang, great job, Liu, you deserve a treat"

Didn't they say in that show that Shao was Raiden's brother? Also I thought Shao was an Emperor from another place that took Edenia and made it part of Outworld? Did Liu Kang really just say "gently caress Edenia you're already Outworld" ?

Seems like Liu squashed all 6 realms down to just Earthrealm and Outworld, best I can tell

But he shouldn't have any memory of DA because everything post-MK3 effectively got time-wiped by Raiden, right?

Do the regular invasion battles every get more difficult?

It's wild to go from spending a full hour trying to take down boss sub-zero into the Tarkat map and be able to just chain force balls until the enemy is dead
And also boring as gently caress

Where the hell are these seasonal towers if not on the mesas you go to? Because I kinda wanna do them but so far I got like three-four level towers.

The game will take you from mesa-to-mesa for the main, I dunno, 4? 5? mesas

But there are two additional mesas that you access from the mesa select screen. One is for training, one is for towers.
