Here's a better look at what Frost looks like;

NRS fucking KILLED her design in this game. She looks fucking incredible.


Whoa is it just me or
her default color scheme and design is very similar to Geras and Kronika? I have a feeling she's gonna play a more central role this time around...

Has the whole story been leaked to know that for sure? Just cause a character isn't playable doesn't mean they won't be there. Rain was in MKX.
People have been mentioning for a while that someone mentioned that they were going to try and move away from having non-playable characters show up in the story mode.

Glad to see Frost is back. I liked her in DA, hope they give her a lot of different moves to differentiate her from Sub-Zero and keep up her agressive personality that we saw a bit of in X.

21 stages makes me smile. I feel x didnt have enough by a longshot.

Thats damn nice. Fighting on the same stages over and over makes the game stale for me. Its why my biggest pet peeve when watching pro play is everyone only playing on training stage. Fuck that shit. I'll tune out after about an hour because it just gets boring for me visually. Street Fighter Alpha 3 will always be one of my treasured FG's because it had far an away more stages than most other FG's could dream of at the time of its release.

Klassic towers are probably playable offline.
The hugely replayable Towers of Time Mode with an endless amount of new missions is not.
Incredibly disappointing after Multiverse in Injustice 2 was fully playable offline.
Though not "fully", at least on consoles. You could play it while offline and changing dates to trigger some events, but it was more of like default/cached data that was saved already; and not the latest more recent events.

Its disappointing that Injustice 2 only had like 8 :(
Injustice 2 had 20.

This game really only has 19, considering 3 of the stages are the same just with different lighting and stuff. (judging by the select screen)

I don't get it. Is Frost a meme started by the PS2 era kids that had their first MK experience with the dreadful 3D games? A "so bad is good" joke? The 3D era should be dead and buried. I don't want Darriou, Kobra, Li Mei and Hsu Hao as DLC.

While largely trash, there are a couple worth saving characters from that era. Frost is one the more favored. Kenshi and Funji are a couple more.

People can like character designs from 'weaker' entries, otherwise we wouldn't get Kenshi being promoted to a series regular or comprehensive character salvages like Tremor. Cherrypicking the bottom of the barrel with Dairou and Hsu Hao doesn't negate the fact that people genuinely want to see them acknowledge the character designs that were more well regarded from those games, especially since they don't seem to mind acknowledging locales and designs from those games as well.

When you see the double sickle fatality for Noob, it's kind of hard to deny the Malthael influence

There's literally nothing more than what we already know as far as quantity go. Quality can't be measured because the time towers are locked and so is the krypt. I won't spoil myself with the story mode.

Do Sindel fans (why are there Sindel fans) forget that she is literally the reason we have revenant shenanigans?

Sindel is the worst. Bad gameplay gimmicks, awful design, murdered everyone.

Just terrible all around.

I tell ya again, there was a missed opportunity for the secret characters to be Mileena and Ermac to call back to UMK3. That way everyone's minds are blown at the nostalgia while also satisfying the needs of the creeps into Mileena and the cultured folk into Ermac.
