Mileena looks & Sounds terrible!

[S.T.A.R.S]

I'm disappointed by how her costume and face looks.
Her MK9 & MKX appearances were the best.
She's my favorite MK character, though I won't be getting this pack, I've already gotten the game at full price and rarely play it anyway.

I'll just wait for MK12

Dear lord, wtf happened to her voice also?

She sounds like that child ferra from mkx.

Mileena will be trans in MK 12. Deal with it.

I'm confused. Usually when someone hates something they don't go through the effort of inclusion. So, I mean if Netherrealm hates women why go the trouble of including them in the game?

It's not that, they are just baby raging over the fact that the MK devs are no longer making oversexualized female characters. Kitana and friends used to be literally a sack of silicon on mk9, thank god they changed that.

its like NRS is the biggest trolls. they finally give us Mileena, and then strip her of everything that made her Mileena past pink clothes and her sai.
She is supposed to use her sex appeal like a weapon, but here shes just ugly all the time, in all ways. Ugly face, ugly hair, ugly voice, flat body, she may as well be a drag queen.

Yeah I don't understand NRSs agenda to uglify all the female chars. Look at Cassie's legs, shes supposed to be like 20 yrs old but her legs are chunkier than Sheeva's for no reason.

Er, I never said my taste was better. I never even gave my personal take on her clothing style. I just basically stated that in the realm of fantasy there are no rules on how character's appearance is suppose to be. I pushed no narrative.

And yes it is literally a video games which is funny that people are making a big deal out of a 3d character.

Well, slight correction on that. In a longstanding video game series there ARE rules on how a character's appearance should be (for existing characters anyway). They are already established to be a designed a certain way. That is what makes them that specific character. Each character design speaks volumes about what sort of person they are, where they come from etc. If you change that too radically then they lose that sense of identity and that can break immersion.

For new concepts within that game world though, the rules are less stringent. That's why characters like Erron Black or Kollector fit into the world cohesively. They aren't bound by expectations

But the thing is people here complaining NRS covered her up which is funny because her newest attire actually more closely resembles her very first attire from MK2 in which she was covered up as well.

So it's not like she went through some radical resdeign, in fact its more like NRS just took her back to her first design albeit with a few changes.

Well, I guess, if you wanna look at it from that perspective you could note there are fewer games where she is "covered up" than those where she isn't, so not "covering her up" is more a staple in design for that character

I think what bothers me most about this design - and others too - personally, is that it breaks immersion a little. What I mean is, these are characters taken directly from the time during MK9 in this timeline but yet a lot of characters' new costumes look nothing like the costumes there so it makes it harder to make that connection.

I think that the "tournament" costumes should look as such. I made a guide a while back comparing them too

what is really funny is that they can have almost undressed kotal -that bald-head skin- but can't have any of previous 'bikini'-skins, even for skarlet. what is really funny is that they keep messing with hips and buttocks сut-lines, even when it comes to mk2-mk3 klassics

well said, its the people they hired and the devs support for feminist frequency. they def made the males look more naked. The females still look like barbie dolls with no muscle, this is why you check employees social media before you hire them.

Kotal Khan is based on Mayan/Aztec culture. Traditionally speaking the males were shirtless so Khan being shirtless fits right in line with the culture he's based on.

Well as I far as I know they aren't based on anything. You said they can have an almost naked Kotal and I simply said well seeing as the character is pulled and inspired from a real life culture his attire is accurate.

It's a fantasy game and devs can do anything they want with the characters they created. The only thing I can offer here to those who are upset about it is to simply go out and crate your won skimpy babe fighting game. What's done is done and complaining about it is not going to make NRS change anything. MK11 has already when on to sale 8 million copies so it's clear the ones making this complaints are a vocal minority.

They never have restricted or detailed inspiration. Basicaly Edenia just another human world, like Earthrealm but with more fantasy stuff.

Edenia is based on an idyllic utopian society; Edenia is literally from Eden, as in the Garden of Eden.

then cultural excuses of kotal being allowed to be near naked -unlike female edenians / outworlders- are just irrelevant. and silly

and even then i'll criticize and make fun of their silly backpedaling from previous female concepts.
