I'm just here to say that this thread and the NZ social cannot coexist peacefully, only one of us can survive. This is war.
Also, Opossum is a stinky traitor and should be executed, he's playing both sides.

To honor our fallen thread, here's a fun question everyone can join in on: How many posts did you guys have in the old thread?

You can check it by hovering your mouse over your avatar by the thread's title, you should get a message like this:



I'm sure there are a lot of people who completely blow my count away. Calling @Zinith and @osby in particular.

Not sure if it's possible for those of you that are on your phones.
7099 posts, boys. Get on my level.

I don't know what it is, but I could just never get into Mortal Kombat. I actually like the violence, but I always felt like the characters moved really "stiffly". I think it's probably just because I play so much Smash that when I'm locked into the "always face forward, only move a few feet" style, it just feels bad to me.

So what's different this time around? I know there's probably tons of new stuff, but the only thing I noticed was that the XRay thing looked a little different. Any big changes or is it more of an iterative sequel, building on the mechanics of the previous?

(Not crap talking MK, I'm sure it's great. But I was pretty bored through the trailer and thought other people would be too. But everyone else seems hyped, so I assume I'm missing something)

Oh geez I'm not sure what I want my first post here to be. I wanted it to be a ****post but this thread came faster then I expected so I didn't have one ready.

Uhhhhh Bubsy for Smash.

I'm already confusing the two socials, can't we just force everyone here to move into the NZ one?

Also, can't check number of posts on that thread because Smashboards hates mobile users.

The biggest change from a fighting game perspective is the separate gauges for offensive and defensive techniques, the supers being relegated to when your health is below 30%, and the use of X-ray moves in regular gameplay and not just supers. But if you've never warmed up to MK gameplay, this isn't going to be any different, really.

Aesthetically, it's basically Injustice 2 but with MK characters instead of DC characters. There'll be loads of content, a story mode, new characters, etc. Good sequel, but a standard sequel.

My first post here should’ve been meaningful, but it’s not.
Oh well.
Yay!

Can't lose the war if you're bankrolling both sides of the conflict.

Yeah, I’m a smashboards poster. Along with that I know many things that most don’t know about these communities. Opossum isn’t part of the actual ultimate social community and I’m not saying that because I don’t like them. I’m saying that based off of years of research.

Holy crap guys! You might want to take a look at this:

I think they may have revealed the last two newcomers!
B-but the Grinch leak has so much evidence to back itself up! /s

I know no one is judging, but like, I actually don't know why that appeared.
I was doing some research on why the heck people find that stuff appealing, but I wasn't sure, so that is probably why it popped up.
I am very curious on what this research entailed.

Also, I legit called the Susie spirit being paired up with Isabelle.

Also this is my 2019th post. What a coincidence.
Edit: Wait it's my 2020th. Crap.

What’s different is now we have Ronda Rousey obviously running away from the WWE to not get her *** whooped so easily like in her UFC days /s

Is there a single person on the planet who was glad the Box theory won?
I'm glad Incineroar is in, he's literally the best. But i'm not glad we got only two characters, I think at least one more base roster non-echo wouldn't be too much to ask for.

But hey, it is what it is. I'm not upset about it.

Pretty much my thoughts on it. Not gonna lie, I did believe the Grinch leak. Had quite a bit of evidence, and was put together well. (For the most part.)
Also, yeah, I agree. Aside from Jigglypuff, (who, coincidentally, was my first Pokemon in any form of Pokemon media.) Incineroar has to be my favorite Pokemon.

Oh gosh, Incineroar is fantastic.
He’s an absolute joy to play, and he just oozes personality.

Given that Piranha Plant is a fighter who has less to animate than someone with a normal human body and still couldn't make the base game, I think you'd be better off hoping for one more echo.

I mean, I wasn't necessarily happy that the theory won.

But I got Ken and Incineroar, two of my most wanted characters, sooo... in a way, I guess I was happy?

As a Grincher, :ultincineroar: has become of my newest mains.

He’s just too much fun to play as and his hits are extremely satisfiying, I’m just mad that he was such an underwhelming last reveal and killed the leak (although the boxing ring was when I realized it was fake), especially to all the non-Pokemon fans.

Even though it'd never happen I'd love it if Disney actually went through with the idea in that one old concept art to make a Disney fighting game. Partly because I'm a big Disney fan and partly because EVO 20XX Grand Finals being between a Tigger main and an Olaf main would be hilarious.
That's been my dream fighting game for a while now...

Being able to beat up Chicken Little as Gaston, would be a dream come true for me

Honestly as soon as they didn’t start off the direct immediately with a trailer, I knew the leak was fake in my heart. In my soul I could tell they we’re going to reveal piranha plant as a playable fighter near the end off the direct too.

Yeah, they gotta make an echo for everyone. Female Character Who Doesn't Use a Paralyzer Gun With a Whip is totally a perfect fit for ZSS!
Yeah, I made a roster where I gave every character an echo, and ZSS was definitely the hardest.

I think I eventually gave up on logic and made it Holly Blue Agate from Steven Universe.

Yay! "P


Honestly I could go on and on about this guy. The fur texturing, and model overall is amazing. Great character design, amazing voice acting, lots of personality, and a fun playstyle! What's not to love?
People who don't find Incineroar hilarious at the very least are people I can't associate with.
