Oh no. OH NOOOOOOOOOOI'm so fucking upset
Ermac's in the Krypt with a new design
It wouldn't surprise me if Boon wanted to let zombies steal the Krypt guy's items when he was sleeping while you're offline.
I know some people hated WoL, but I had no issue with it and enjoyed my time with it. I never felt like it was designed to purposely mess with you to drive you to spend anything, and there were other ways to unlock characters if you didn't like it. It may have been bloated or boring, but it didn't feel slimy. Same with Shadow Lords mode in KI which had some of these similar power up elements, but never felt manipulative like you had to spend a cent. We'll see how this feels, but lets hope it's closer to those.

I will wait until I play around with the Towers of Time and the Krypt before I make a judgment on the supposed "grindiness" of the single player.
Same.
He's got a new design though so he'll probably come back. I don't think they'd bother otherwise. They didn't for the other characters that show up.
Yeah the new design makes me have a sliver of hope he'll be DLC down the line. The other cameo in the krypt didn't have a new design so who knows. As of right now though it's just beyond cruel.
You will be even more upset when you play it yourself...
He'll drop down, being impaled, right in front of you.
OH COME ON
Was he voiced or anything? The fact they've gone to all this effort makes me think he might DLC at some point in the game's life.
After verification, there are no mercies.
It's just let them fall and that's it.
Huge missed opportunity to post this gif, lol:
I don't remember... Maybe him screaming while falling and some gargling sounds as he dies? ;)

Hmm, I'm honestly more intrigued than depressed right now. Hopefully this isn't just Boon fucking with people but the amount of effort has me curious.
Yeah ok they dont fall.
Still disappointing compared to past titles that had unique things.
I mean, can he even be killed for real? He's literally a ball of souls.
Non-spoiler, just speculation:
Rain will be down there. Also watch as a Mileena clone is also down there. Both dead.
Eh, not so sure about this. Remember that a lot of this game has online checks. If currency is a server side thing then you're kinda boned in that regard. And then you can get into a weird territory where you're using cheat engine to bypass the paywalls of micro transactions.
I booted up MKXL recently and even in there I'd you do a cheat engine value search, it's easy to find your koins, but any edit you make just doesn't stick. Couldn't find any up to date working trainers outside of one site charging for them which I'm not gonna do.
I'm so fucking upset
Ermac's dead in the Krypt with a new design
Pre-order cancelled. This game is now pointless.
They have him the most generic design as well so now I know he's really fucking gone.
Is the only way to accumulate koins/krystals is to do the towers? Also, could you randomly stumble upon your character's gear or more kurrency in the krypt? I'm not trying to make excuses for the game's drip-feeding us content, I'm just curious as to the ways you can make things go faster (as oppose to eventually paying for them later). TTT2 had this bullshit and you had to grind online for hours just to afford a hat, lol.
Another Switch screenshot, this time from Johnny's second fatality. (Was this posted already?)
This looks imo really bad. Worse than what fighters made for last generation platforms looked like. Building something from the ground up for weaker hardware usually looks better than significantly downgrading something made for more powerful hardware to fit it on weaker hardware.

Can you take a screenshot of that fatality to compare directly?
The Krypt aint completely canon anyway with the stuff that happens there.
With that in mind it would be sick to have Motaro there as a Mount.

Oh god after having played only DB and GG for years i feel like an idiot trying to block and do combos
Started with Noob anyway, always loved the design

I don't have that fatality and you unfortunately can't preview them in kustomization mode as you can with much other stuff.
Unfortunately, a lot of the cool gear and skins that are selling points for the game are locked behind this.
You have to unlock them too ??
What if you go in tournament mode ? It should unlock both right ?
If MK11 works like MKX, as long as you know the inputs you can do the Fatality even if it doesn't show up under the move list.
Did you watch the videos and read the descriptions sephi22 posted?
I'm sure a lot of people will be pissed off about this and they'll be forced to make some serious adjustments to it.
Reviewers will make a big deal about it in a few days I'm sure.
You use his horn to unlock a door, but no mounts unfortunately
You can. I tried the beta fatalities and they worked, but they won't ever appear in your move list until your formally unlock them in 11. So you've gotta just use your memory.
I don't think it works this way in MK11. Everything has to be unlocked to use it. It says it has to be found in the Krypt.
No. I'm still going to wait and see for myself. There are some things you can't properly judge until you get hands on with it. I'm not exactly discounting his findings, I just want to see how this supposed grind feels when I actually play it.
No, you can 100% use a fatality without unlocking it if you know the input. It just doesn't appear in your move list or collection if you haven't formally unlocked it by finding it in the Krypt etc.
So about the Krypt stuff;
Klassic Sub Zero also falls down from the Pit, but the guy on twitter said that the game bugged out and he disappeared.
Yeah my mistake, I thought both got more health.

Eh, I dunno. I don't think they care. The rate at which you unlocked shaders in Injustice 2 was bad, and the shader multiverses than ran for only three hours popped up maybe 2-3 times per week.
When the Legendary update came out, you'd think they would finally loosen up and make these more frequent with the game support/playerbase winding down, but they actually made them less frequent.
They get no benefit of the doubt from me. Their whole system kinda turned a game I thought was awesome into one that irritated the hell out of me whenever I booted it up. I know I wasn't alone.
I'm afraid that's gonna happen here too.
Can I second this?
Because not all grinds are considered equal... and I'm STILL neck-deep in the grind of Injustice.
"You gotta do 50 uppercuts and 50 throws". That... is reasonable to me.
Compare that to the Sub-Zero Legendary Multiverse in Injustice 2 for his FIRST tower:
"Finish your opponent with 100 supermoves, finish your opponent with 100 polar punctures, 100 meta challenges completed as Sub-Zero (you can really only do about 2 or 3 at most per tower), 200 villains defeated, etc."
The grind is much harder because the criteria means you can't perform the tasks multiple times. You have to finish each match with a specific move, and if they block something like your supermove, well, restart the whole match.
It's super-unreasonable stuff.
I will agree. I was LOVING Injustice 2 (I still do, to a degree), but the grind was made WORSE over time, not better.
It's crazy I've been playing since launch day and still don't have remotely any of the sets for my favorite characters I've wanted. But, by all means, randomly give me more under-leveled Swamp Thing and Firestorm gear, I guess...
I definitely think Ermac has a fairly decent chance as DLC solely based on his new design the and the effort that went into his death scene but unfortunately nothing's certain so we have to wait unfortunately.
