I’m not sure how I feel about no 1 vs 1 matches without the assist gimmick. The assist gimmick will be interesting for a day imo. We’ll see. * Goth doesn’t always make sense. With that said, I’m looking foward to MK1.

Maybe it’ll be like MKX with the secret “no variation” option.
Its a neat feature, but having it be mandatory is a pretty strange design choice.
That would be like playing Marvel vs Capcom without tag partners. Without a fundamental piece of what the game is built around. Of course there’s no option not to use it.
Only way to know is in September

I mean what would really stop them from making it a simple toggle to turn it off? They have the money to do so. Just give players the option to have them or not before the fight.
I guarantee story mode fights will mostly be 1v1 anyways, so its not that complicated of a system to work around.
Because the game is built around the system! That would be like having a toggle to turn off left kick.
Getting pretty bent out of shapeover a sinple speculation.
Does it really matter?
Yeah. I guess. Idk.
Im not even against the idea of kameos as a system mechanic, but not allowing it to be turned off is a really strange decision.
My only guess, this is their ‘workaround’ over the whole… “Nobody played tag team in MK9, so lets just mishmash them both together because the chart says so.”
Frankly I disagree with that mindset, as they should really stop worrying about what line graph says, and just give fans what they’ve been asking for since MKX, but I digress.
Again, if story mode has only 1v1 fights, yet the core game itself doesn’t allow for it in VS mode, thats just gonna look weird.
I don’t know why the story mode wouldn’t have kameo assists enabled. It’s a part of the game.
Unless retro Jax and Kano show up during the Kenshi vs Cage fight that was teased in story mode, very unlikely.
Would kinda break the flow of the narrative if thats the case.
And maybe they do
Kudos to anyone on the stress test. Hopefully the netcodes gotten alot better than X and 11s.
With next gen hardware, Id surley hope so.

Heres another kameo fighter that would really turn some heads. The fricken Zebra guy from Deadly Alliance
(NGL tho, whoever made this version, did a spectacular job on it. Almost has a shinnok vibe going for it. If this was even a playable fighter, Id be all for it.)
Idk why, but for some reason I pictured he’d have an south american accent. T’challa or Anansi the Spider comes to mind in that regard.

You said South American and then named two African characters

Really don’t like the name one little bit and the assist mechanic is overdone. I’ll need to see more single player content before making my mind up.
The naming convention for these games after MK4 tends to go all over the place. The fact MKvsDC is somehow considered as “MK8” doesnt help much.
As cliché as it sounds, I would’ve settled if they just called it “Mortal Kombat Rebirth”.

Fair point.
But, you’re also getting triggered over a simple typo, ignoring the point of my post completely which was all about reinventing a joke character into something new. If I said the wrong region, then fine. Just leave it at that so we can move on. Jeez.
You’re trying to make a mountain out of an anthill here. Lighten up.
Then don’t.
Again, you’re looking for a problem that isnt even there.
