Ultimates and stage ultras technically kill in this game, good examples being Agano's stage where the opponent is turned to stone and disintegrated, and ARIA's stage where they get thrown off a skyscraper (complete with a flaling animation the devs admitted was a reference to KI1's goofy flailing animation). With that said, the violence is more toned down like Killer Instinct 2's finishers were; that is, people are clearly dying in the ultimates/stage ultras, but the actual violence is still less when compared to KI1 (which was the most violent game in the series).

Of course the finishers in the new game are still way better than most of KI2's finishers, many of which were just "Get hit with projectile, then fall over and die" type of moves. I never agreed with the whole "Off-screen finishers" approach this game did (mainly as Guilty Gear has way a better approach of T-Rated finishing moves) but there is techinically more variety than what KI2 offered in that many finishers aren't the exact same thing.

The original never had fatalities, just ultimates, This version has the same things you would find in the older installments. Not sure why that would make you want a refund, but to each their own.

Have fun refunding all your games who don't have "killing" or fatalities...
Seriously how old are you...?
arislaf Jun 21, 2018 @ 10:48pm 
30. And before start bashing me for your game, have in mind that i didn't bash anyone here. People can have their opinions no matter the age, and i respect that. Can you?

If someone asks for a refund, only because "he didnt see a killing" then NO!
This was the most ridiculous reason for a refund E V E R !
In fact, you made my day...

Well good then. Have a nice day.

The original did have a fatality like thing called a danger move/finisher and it was cool. This version has ultras that could be seen as a kill and I like that also :)

Ultra in here are the same as ultra combos in the old games: They are big combos used to end the match. You're confusing ultras with Ultimates, which are the actual fatality-type moves.

I know what they are I mistyped what I meant but didn't bother fixing it I have played all the games and know this already lol.
