Not all but most....
This originated on the Midway forums when I read the topic, who's the dummest MK charicter... that wasn't a typo, that was the actual title. Then one guy mentioned Meat and Kira. Basically Meat for being a "Lazy character that MK put together" and Kira for being an "Unoriginal character" Which I found odd because Meat is original. Any other characters pull off there heads and roll it around on stage? no. Here's my rant.
You can't please an MK fan. This is a reason for Ed Boon not to care about what MK fans want, even though that's not what he thinks but I wouldn't blame him for it. So fans want original characters, but it seems like the original characters (Mokap, Bo Rai Cho, Meat, Dairou, Havik(I know I don't like him but it's not for the reason I'm ranting about) Hotaru, Blaze, Molach, and so on) get alot of heat for being either simple characters or for being "Not fitting in the MK world." Ok, so really the only people that fit are those from 2D or have an everlasting storyline? Yeah right. Then those same people will go off and bash characters like Kira, Jarek, Kenshi(Not so much but example), Darious and so on for being unoriginal.
So wait... you're telling me that you hate someone for being original and hate people for being unoriginal? That doesn't sound right, because people hardly ever bashes Wolverine and Sabertooth. They're pretty much the same moves. A copy of another in different skin.
Then THESE SAME PEOPLE, will go off and say that Chameleon and Khameleon are among there top whatever favorites. Those are the most UNORIGINAL! All the ninja's put in one and all the female ninjas put in another, they even used the same weapons from the original versions from all who they are copying! I'm not saying they are bad characters because I don't believe in the whole "He's to unoriginal, he's doesn't fit in MK or he was just a lazy way to a new character stuff, but if you keep contradicting yourself you'll be the one who looks dumb for someone not giving a damn about what you want when making a game.
Then onto the subject of MK vs. DC universe. People keep saying "Sounds like they're running out of ideas, or Boon sounds like he's taking the easy way out" Are you kidding me? This game is a whole new idea, and he's putting even more in it. Also Ed Boon isn't taking the easy way out because now he's got to come up with some weirdo reasons for why the DC and MK worlds have collided and he has to not only live up to MK expectations, he's got to live up to DC expectations.
BTW, I don't mean you personally when I say you. I say you because if it is you who does this, maybe you can look at things from a better prespective.
Thanks for reading and feel free to post reasons why you disagree with some of my rant or why you agree. Or anything for that matter.
