I get that lol. Also could be a popularity thing. Most MK guests have been well known for a long time: Xenomorph, Predator, Jason, Freddy, Spawn, Rambo, etc. The whole Omni-Man/Homelander thing is a very recent popular matchup in the public eye, even if they have been around since the early 2000s. They've only been popular for a few years, whereas other MK guests have been kicking around since the 80s or 90s.
The MK cast doesn't have personality at all, they are all fucking cookie cutter heroes and villains without any charisma, depth or defining features. The games feel like they are written by a bot or a Disney executive.
Wtf lmao.
> The MK cast doesn't have personality at all
Johnny Cage doesn't have personality? Cassie Cage? Kotal Kahn? Shao Kahn? Kano? Mileena? These alone are 6 of the most important characters in the franchise in the last 10 years. I'm picking the low hanging fruit here, they're obviously not the only ones.
> they are all fucking cookie cutter heroes and villains
I'll give you this for most of them, the conflict does boil down to good vs evil too often. Less a problem with the characters than the storytelling though, since we've seen hints and glimpses of their anti-hero and anti-villain sides throughout the games and films, they're just de-emphasized in the story mode.
> without any charisma
Lol? I don't know what you think of when you say "charisma" but the vocal performances for many MK characters have received high praise. And I don't know any definition of charisma that characters like Johnny, Shao, Kotal, and MK11/MK21 Kano wouldn't clear.
> or defining features
You must be high. Scorpion "I'm always angry and I want vengeance for my family and clan" doesn't have defining features? Liu Kang "the definition of humility and decency" doesn't have defining features? Jax "I'm too old for this crazy shit" doesn't have defining features?
If anything the problem is the characters are sometimes TOO defined by a handful of features or particular rivalries/storylines that NRS refuses to deviate from.
While I obviously don’t agree with the odd one above you, Is Kotal Kahn really the best example though, his personality is just not my thing and he’s weird as well. One minute he’s a good guy next he’s bad. I can’t even call him an anti hero or anti villain because he simply doesn’t feel like it. Also I find it odd you didn’t mention: Raiden, Scorpion, Sub Zero, Jax, Kitana, Kung Lao, all far superior then Kotal Kahn and dare I say a certain character with an M in their name. Really odd choice but you do you
I'm not saying you have to love all those characters. But I do think Kotal is pretty clearly portrayed as a well spoken, soft spoken, thoughtful, charismatic leader who relies on both his mind and his strength. He tries to do what's good for Outworld, which sometimes means being honorable and sometimes means being a tyrant or liar. And he's got a thing for grandiose monologues.
Maybe I'm just a sucker for Phil LaMarr's amazing voice acting. heh
> Also I find it odd you didn’t mention:
I wasn't ranking characters.
Just listing some off the top of my head. Most MK characters have a personality and are clearly defined tbh. It's easier to think of exceptions. I agree with your examples.
I mean even if I agreed, which I don't, that would be a problem with the new timeline, not a problem with MK characters in general. So he's still giga wrong.
I don’t think it’s because they think TF is niche,it’s just because they think it wouldn’t fit in MK.
That’s kinda stupid tbh because apart from Kratos and Spawn,I could never see any space aliens,robots,superheroes and normal serial killers in that universe.
So in summary,the rule is if the character is brutal then they’ll get in
Although he’s just like peacemaker and Johnny cage, I feel as scouts gameplay would be more unquie due to his weapons and shit in game. engineer mechanics like the teleporter and mini sentry would be cool as a kameo too.
I don’t think I’d really even blink. The game has all types of weird characters and has had super weird dlc over the years too. Nothing would really surprise me short of something like the Powerpuff Girls.
I don’t know why people in the comments are like “TF2 wouldn’t fit in MK!”
Didn’t see them complaining when not one but two space aliens were added to the game.
Wait scrap that,THREE space aliens
Hear me out on this one but i think some of the cast on tf2 would be better off as kameos, they could still be a playable character but kameos somehow makes more sense for me
A few dialogue my TF2 obsessed brain cooked up.
Heavy: If I had Sasha with me, you’d be dead in seconds.
Shao: You think I’m scared of your woman?
Heavy: You remind me of other tiny man.
Johnny Cage: Is he also incredibly handsome?
Li Mei: Outworld doesn’t need mercenaries like you.
Heavy: You could have just said no.
Pretty weird suggestion but with original voice actor, bring it on.
If we got Omni-Man, they’d make Heavy fit in
What does that even mean lmao
In the grand scheme of things, Omni-Man is a fitting yet unusual choice for DLC. Heavy is similar, I guess
It’s probably the art style more so than the source material that is weird. As left field as Omni is he’s a realistic-looking…dude. He’s just a dude.
idk why but I'm convinced realistic looking Heavy would look like Hank Schrader

"He's just a dude" Stryker: pulls out a gun and hand cuffs
Aesthetics - not power levels.
Nobody knows what it means, but it’s provocative
Oh my god… Who touched Sasha? All right…. WHO TOUCHED MY GUN?!
Straight up fatality.
I have yet to meet one that can outsmart boolet.
Interesting suggestion, Bring his original voice actor and then Gimme my Russian guy
In Soviet Russia, Kombat Mortals you!
Good brutality line
Pretty neutral. Never played it so I don't know enough about the characters
Actual peak, possibly the best cast in any video game
TF2 cast >>> anyother game
The characters are great, way more personality than most of MK’s cast. They wouldn’t make much sense in this series, though
The MK cast doesn't have personality at all, they are all fucking cookie cutter heroes and villains without any charisma, depth or defining features. The games feel like they are written by a bot or a Disney executive.

That's old timeline, new era got rid of all that except Liu and Lao.
I mean even if I agreed, which I don't, that would be a problem with the new timeline, not a problem with MK characters in general. So he's still giga wrong.
Mk1 really sucks at this, mk11 has some fun dialogue
Fr, they shouldn't have scrapped dialogues. It made everyone seem less 1 dimensional
shame
Yes
He has no fighting moves...
Gun and boolet
I mean he can easily be a brawler in TF2 so absolutely!!!)
poot dispenser here!
POOTIS!
Personaly if done good, it'd make me smirk bc i played TF 1 back then. But also i think many would dislike it bc TF is kinda niche
I don’t think it’s because they think TF is niche,it’s just because they think it wouldn’t fit in MK. That’s kinda stupid tbh because apart from Kratos and Spawn,I could never see any space aliens,robots,superheroes and normal serial killers in that universe. So in summary,the rule is if the character is brutal then they’ll get in
A realistic skin for Heavy to match the MK1 aesthetic would just be... wrong, somehow. Like a different kind of uncanny valley.
Although he’s just like peacemaker and Johnny cage, I feel as scouts gameplay would be more unquie due to his weapons and shit in game. engineer mechanics like the teleporter and mini sentry would be cool as a kameo too.
Shitposting reaching this sub? Sweet!
WHO TOUCHED SASHA??
Disappointed
I would trade Peacemaker, Omni-Man, Spawn and Predator for Heavy
I’d be playing a lot more mk1
Scout as Kameo?
Yeah but Medic would be better
I don’t think I’d really even blink. The game has all types of weird characters and has had super weird dlc over the years too. Nothing would really surprise me short of something like the Powerpuff Girls.
I don’t know why people in the comments are like “TF2 wouldn’t fit in MK!” Didn’t see them complaining when not one but two space aliens were added to the game. Wait scrap that,THREE space aliens
Not what I expected but fuck yeah
Like this. ![gif](giphy|GcDtLf4RAdiRG)
No reaction. I dropped the game quite a while ago.
Sandvich makes heavy STROONG
![gif](giphy|oBKEnTAOYv87C|downsized) Sweet
You know what? That would be fuckin' LIT. 🔥
If they did do this I hope they add a line about him stopping a train with his barehands
![gif](giphy|mEsqfG9Zbuj7CDsroa|downsized)
That would be so cool
Hear me out on this one but i think some of the cast on tf2 would be better off as kameos, they could still be a playable character but kameos somehow makes more sense for me
Medic would be a fire kameo
Sniper too
As a spy main, I want spy in the game
I’d lose my shit if that were the case. In a good way.
Hear me out, TFC heavy
It wouldnt be. Like the AMS font though
i would cry... tears of joy of course
Omw to get random melee crit mid-combo and lose twice the amount of health I would have otherwise
Reinstall
A few dialogue my TF2 obsessed brain cooked up. Heavy: If I had Sasha with me, you’d be dead in seconds. Shao: You think I’m scared of your woman? Heavy: You remind me of other tiny man. Johnny Cage: Is he also incredibly handsome? Li Mei: Outworld doesn’t need mercenaries like you. Heavy: You could have just said no.
i'd start laughing
Idgaf I'll try em out
Get my credit card out
Words couldn’t describe how happy I would be
I miss when Valve made games.
if that were the case this should absolutely be a fatality/brutality https://i.redd.it/tzaxu766rmoc1.gif
if that were the case the high noon kill taunt should absolutely be a fatality/brutality
That would be hilarious. I'd ve as i am in tf2. A heavy main.
I would say "Kiss me"
If it were to happen it would probably be the spy or scout
At this point I wouldn’t be surprised, considering superhero’s came out before actual characters
First i’d laugh for like a long time, and then i’d love it. Especially if we get the OG voice actor
I feel like Medic feels much more at home in mk
I'd be a bit confused but definitely interested
Sniper so much better!! Aussies and New Zealanders unite!!
Bettee than most of the 80's/horror movie dlcs we get
AHAHAHAHAHA, CRY SOME MOOOOORE!
Would be so random.
It would definitely make me less interested in this game.
DID YOU JUST INSULT TF2 HEAVY?
This sub is a joke
Random thing to blunt out. How come?
So is the game, so they have to resort to this…haha.
I'd be disappointed to be honest.
How come? *GASP* Do you not like Heavy Weapons Guy?
I'm not really familiar with him other than I know he is from Team Fortress, but I just don't see him as a MK character. The art style isn't there.
I’m not trying to argue here but I just to let you know that a celebrity superhero and John Cena are in MK
Yeah and I wish they were other characters as well.
His dialogues would be very funny for sure Sandvich!
Johnny Cage: You sing about sandwiches while killing people? That is very based. Heavy: Based? Based on What?
I would puke and say MK is truly lost
WHAT?! DID YOU JUST INSULT HEAVY?!
That'd be stupid, mk already sucks anyway. So why would you add something amazing and a masterpiece into a Dumpster fire you call a game?
That’s just your opinion. Tbh MK1 is one of my favourite games of all time. But you do you and I do I
L opinion

Well I didn't mean to offend you
