I know but that gave me the idea for the Hisako terror skin.
Nobody here is trying to make anyone like anything.
Weâre just trying to make sure the debate is less of âIG sux no creativity give me Shadow Orchid delet dis characater.â
Well if you remember the Mira leak she literally had Mayaâs stance and animation before they changed it. She was clutching two daggers that werenât there so i think itâs safe to say she was built on top of Maya.
And TJ was built off Thunderâs rig and Maya was built off Orchidâs rig.
You donât need to buy it man.
Itâs just sold singularly too, so skip that and get the next if you want.
I think so, yeah. There were bugs that happened to Maya that also happened to Mira (for example, both of their backdashes are invincible for 3 extra frames, they fixed Mayaâs cr.LK to be not negative on block but forgot to fix Miraâs which had the same frame data, etc).
But to me, Mira is not a remix character at all. I never think âoh thatâs kinda Maya-likeâ when I see her played, the thought that she is based on another character never crosses my mind.
If anyone from this points uses the Exscuse we cant have Eagle because he is Fulgore im just gona say well Shin Hisako is Hisako so you can have both
Ig already retconned that. Fulgore and Eagle are two separate characters now.
I think youâre missing the fundamental truth that there are no âexcusesâ for anything. Anyone who says we canât have Eagle because heâs Fulgore is just someone spitting into the wind on the Internet. The developers have never said that, and they donât need any excuses. If they donât want to make Eagle they donât make him. If they want Eagle, they make him. Thereâs no âexcusesâ required.
Youâre not the only one who does this, so Iâm not trying to pick in you. But people need to stop thinking that just because somebody random says something on the forums that it has any relationship to the actual game and itâs development. Donât attribute things that random posters say to the development team.

Hey who needs to read that crap when you can just make hypothetical retorts to arguments in the future, so long as you get your uneducated opinion out then who cares am I right.

sorry for the double post, but since this is a separate thought I didnât want to edit it into the above.
As far as âtaking up a slotâ that could have been used for something you like better, I think this is a terrible fallacy. I donât think itâs true, even if youâre looking at a season where they have a set number of characters. The idea that any character you donât like is a waste of a âslotâ that could be filled with a character you like just assumes that whatever it is you DIDNT GET would be better than what you did get. Which is dubious. But Iâm the case if the remix characters itâs doubly true because there is absolutely no indication at all that they would be giving us anything if they werenât able to give us remix characters.

Same term that can be used on you:âŠtastes, opinions are opinions. ad hereâs mine : U
perosnally, I got a way better challenge off of Shadow Jago in season1 then that poor excuse for a boss. Shao Kahn from MK2 was nastier than him.
Boss difficulty has nothing to do with itâs worth. Sure the game has pretty graphics and satisfying fatalitiesâŠhoweverâŠbeyond that, I can say the combo mechanics are not very deep. MKX is good in its own right, but I prefer KI way more.
MKX has guests up the wazoo and theyâre not even Game characters even. In MKX you can win by knowing only one combo and you donât really have to know anything else to win. You donât have to change up your gameplay or throw out different combos cause youâll never get broken. You can KINDA vary your moves if you want, but really, you can just win by doing only one specific combo. Sure MKX has alot of other stuff but if you just know one good combo, you ust open up your opponent and BOOM ya win, easy.
In KI you have to not only know your moves but know your opponent. You have to know their habits, catch them when they try to do stuff, if someone is guess breaking you have an option to counter it easily, You just need to pick up on your opponentâs bad habits.
While MKX may have more straight forward gameplay it lacks depth as a consequence to this. KI may seem barebones on the surface, but itâs deep in the fact that you have to do more than know how to use combos to beat your opponent.
MKX doesnât require anything but the basics of knowing when to hit your opponent with a special move or a combo (which can be tough sometimes giving how weird and janky the positioning can be) but it still goes back to âOnly one combo to winâ this is, in my opinion, why MKX is bare bones in gameplay. It has shiney new features like story, and such, but gameplay, not much
While itâs nice they were able to expand with body types everyone is still not as diverse as KIâs roster. I will say at least MKXs is better than Tekken which isnât really saying much though but compared to KI itâs definatly lower rank wise.
Story wise, sure, MKX may have big story with cutscenes and shiney cinimatics, but its story was crap. Shinnok gets beatenâ by Cassy CageâŠreally? I felt like the new characters were gettinâ pushed in my face with only a handful I like, such as Kotal Kahn. I will say the new cast is still better than from the 3D era of MKDA and MKD. Even so, with what KI has budge wise, itâs a better experience in my opinion.
I still love the MK series but MKX isnât as good as MK9 if I am to be honest, even if it does have its upsides.

Wait Shao Khan was in KI2?! Guess MK vs. KI happened after all.
Fixed in the post. Back on topic:
I think MKX isnât as good as KI gameplay wise. When I got bored of the story with MKX itâs gameplay hadlittle to keep me interested.
To get further back on topic: I was hoping weâd get a uniqe character with the Samurai and Iâm a bit bummed itâs Hisako again, still I will wait and see if sheâll be any fun before I continue my jugement any further.

Well at least thereâs that last character since he/she is not a remix.
True but I was really hoping for a Smaurai character with the armor and such, be lying if I said I didnât like Samurais lol. I was just hoping it would be a uniqe character. But like I said, Iâll reserve further judgement before I play the character.
Will she be a ninja tho?
No sheâs a samurai now.
Understandable.
I guess Iâm just not as disappointed as most others since
- Hisakoâs one of my favorite characters so Iâm curious what other direction the devs want to take her
- I like ninjas more than samurais
- Throughout this whole speculation ordeal, I always kept my expectations moderate because we donât know want to expect. Personally I feel thatâs one the main drawbacks of speculating. While they can be really fun, at the same time there comes a point where we become too attached to an specific idea to when it doesnât happen, it feels disappointing at least and soul crushing at worst.
This is true, while I usually donât fall in love with an idea as speculation, I would be lying if I didnât say that I was really looking forward to the idea of a new, fresh samurai character. But really should of kept it moderate.
On that note itâs like I said before: Iâll wait to play her before I judge any further. I guess I know how ya feel about being excited though, cause I was pretty excited for Kilgore, since Fulgore was my favorite, so the idea he was getting a brother excited me.
