Re: SNK's Terry Bogard Joins Smash Bros., And There Are Even More Fighters To Come

@Miiamoto
You are incorrect. They aren't "literally still making the game". That implies the game is currently in an unplayable state. They are simply adding more fighters to prolong the lifespan of a game, this is normal in this time and age. This isn't like EA adding in features that were originally promised as paid DLC. I understand your frustration, but saying that Smash Ultimate is incomplete is utterly ridiculous. If Ultimate didn't receive any DLC and launched the same way it did I doubt anybody would claim it's incomplete.

Ahh yes, the "I'm not racist because it's not a race" defense. Discrimination is discrimination, the fact that you're being pedantic about whether or not you're specifically being racist or stereotypical only proves my point. And let's not kid ourselves, you didn't Google anything.

Anyways, it's clear that both of us are not find budge, so I'll just end this debate here before we both get uncivil. Thank you for the interesting look into the American mind.

How is that "disturbing"? That's how the world works. You submit your work for feedback and make improvement based people's criticisms. That's literally what you do in school and in your career.

I know in this case a lot of the feedback was memes, but there were also genuine suggestions that the public offered and I'm very glad the movie studio is taking their suggestions to heart instead of being "disturbed".

Re: Review: Mortal Kombat 11 - A Satisfying Dose Of Comic Hyper-Violence Despite Loot Balance Issues

NetherRealm Studios recently said on a Kombat Kast that they never intended the grind to be so difficult and there will be a big patch out very soon that lowers the difficulty of the towers. They will also be giving players a bunch of free currency to say sorry.

I don't know if that's enough to quell the anger and frustration I've seen towards MK11, but just FYI for the people who are considering picking it up

The problem is you won't unlock things naturally, at least not the things you want. The grind really is insane. It's sad that we're defending microtransactions in full price games now just because it's "optional". FYI Brutalities are locked behind random chests. But hey don't take my word for it, it sounds like you have the game so play through the towers and you'll see.

Re: Ed Boon Reassures Fans Mortal Kombat 11 Will Run At 60fps On Nintendo Switch

Ed Boon answers the question at 14:59 in the video.
A few interesting highlights from the interview:

  • There will be multiple endings
  • Johnny Cage's fans don't know he's killed dozens of people, they think he's just a normal movie star
  • Raiden's the only one that can canonically survive a bullet to the head
  • Chronica is higher than an elder god
  • There was a meeting around 5 months ago about another Mortal Kombat movie, a script exists
  • Neo from The Matrix was almost in Injustice 2
