Why did all the Female kombatants get face downgrades
They nailed Kitana and Sindel perfectly in MK11 and now we got our Coworkers as their character models wtf.

The only one I'm uncertain about is Tanya but more so for the hair

Honestly I like her hair more than that bobcut she had from other games. lol Stick a bowl on her head look was awful. Couldn't help but think Wakanda forever when she showed up though. She rocking a bad ass tri-staff though. Only by playing through the story will I have a definitive opinion tho like everything else in this game.

A random female cashier looks more feminine in my country than some of these characters in-game.

People always come up with the "argument", why do we care if a character looks like that, it's just a game. Well, if it's just a game then why do I wanna pay, so I have to look at ugly people? Makes no sense.

Considering the nature of fighting games, they're expecting you to not notice since in real matches everything becomes more of a blur of special effects, so you won't notice the faces as often. In other words, they're banking on people who care so much for the gameplay they won't care how ugly the characters are, because they won't even pay attention to that part of the game.

Also, I should have said this yesterday, but:

:2018raygun: Give us your politicians, and the random cashiers too. With those people in charge we could prevent more stuff from becoming like MK1. It's not fair you get to have sane people in your area.

Ok? So did Smoke, Raiden (more so just bizarre that they race swapped him) and Shang Tsung. Why are so many of you focused solely on the women? Makes you no better than the feminazi sjws who cried for censorship and realism after MK9 was released

The males were nowhere near as downgraded as the females were. Even some of the Kameos like Jax and Kano are the best they've ever looked. It's clear bias in that regard, just like MK11.

People were ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about Kung Lao's little brother, I mean Raiden, since he appeared. Some did the same with Shang Tsung, Liu Kang, Scorpion and Sub-Zero. Others are doing it with Ermac right now. Get your facts straight. Preferable outside of the paralell universe that is known as Youtube comments.

Raiden has been discussed already like what two months ago? When the first trailer released.We're talking about the latest trailer that dropped yesterday.
Calm down white knight.

Kameo sonya isn't that bad not gonna lie. Certainly way better than her MkX or MK11 counter part lol. Frost also looked good like she got picked out from the old games. Her MK11 character model looked sorta off with her klassic design.

So... they're catering to the people actually playing the games rather than the small handful of weirdos who post screencaps of female characters to complain about "woke"?
Sir, you're not helping your argument.

Are you seriously suggesting that politicians have anything to do with character designs in a video game? I'm dumbfounded.



Also, not that this matters because NONE OF THIS MATTERS IN THE SLIGHTEST, but the characters aren't even ugly! You don't have to personally find them attractive, but everyone has preferences! Yours aren't universal! Get over it and grow up!

I think games are a fantasy and a way to evade ourselves from ♥♥♥♥♥♥ real life so...why bringing these horrible designs to a fantasy? Most people want curvy ladies like it used to be before. No one complained back in that time.

Meanwhile the other fighting games had no qualms about this. NRS has been nerfing beautiful fighters for some time now also based Shao kahn. If you know you know.

Well, if you can't find a partner that's not the game's fault...

What a suggestive and idiotic comment...
You are prob one of those Twitter fanatics who bashed the new Final Fantasy, cause the women looked good.

Wrong by a long shot, I don't follow Final Fantasy nor I have a Twitter. Although these types of comments from yours folks are pretty... Well, suggestive like you said. It's hard to ignore.
