Post subject: Scorpion in MKDA... |
 |
| |
...really bores me. WHY THE HELL is he so easy to control? Every single one of his combos is so fast, powerful and easy to do!! It makes the game way to easy  . DAMMIT Scorpion is my favorite character in MK1 and MK4, but in MKDA, he's a big bore plus his new outfit really sucks. Tell me what you think.

Get his second costume. Hopefully that one isn't too boring for you. I like Scorpion in MKDA but I have to admit he's one of the easiest characters to complete the game quickly with alongside Johnny Cage.

I think hes good in DA. I would think easy, fast, and powerful are 3 good things. And I think his costume gets better with every MK game...(I loved his costume in MK4. Very different.)

If you're so good with Scorpion, raise the difficulty, put it on MAX, I'm somehow sure it won't be so easy then. I like his costumes, designers are in a good direction.
Johnny Cage is not hard to master, I play with him. For now I can pass the game on hard loosing a couple of fights. But it is very interesting and entertaining to be able to control the character almost perfectly ... know and use all his moves and combos. To be comfortable with all his styles. When you raise difficulty and use such a character, the outcome is an interesting fight.
You have a contrary example of another all time favourite character - Sub-Zero, which is really awkward and complex to get along with in MKDA. The result is that he's kind of 'forgotten' in this game. Do you think that's right?

Sub Zero has decent combos but it's the fact that each decent combo has you constantly switching which buttons you press like X, triangle, O. Whereas a lot of characters have simpler ones where you press same buttons repetetively.
I like Johnny Cage's Square, Triangle, X, X, X combo. Easy and effective.

About his outfit: It has too much details. Swords, Skulls and all that shit. And I hate the color. It's not yellow anymore, it's gold!! Scorpion has to wear something yellow.

Im fine with his new outfit to be honest.
I suppose that as the games get newer the more detail they add plus Scorpion is probobly going to look like the MK main character now that Liu Kangs dead.

I don't think Scorpion will be the main chracter. He's not good nor evil to start with, a no-no for the lead character. Sub-Zero was kind of supposed to be the main guy in MKDA, but awkward motion ruined him.
Kitana could be the main character. Kung Lao maybe.
As for Scorpions outfit, I think it's OK and more to the good side. If he had to keep the MK4 (or any previous MK games) costume in MKDA, he would have looked plain. Maybe the details on him are a bit over the top, but all in all I like it. Sub-Zero in his classic costume and Scorpion in his standard one provide a very bright fight. Too bad they are not enemies any more. Maybe Sub-Zero lost part of his appeal because of that too. Before he and Scorpion were always together, like brothers, but now he's not attached to anyone, kind of lonely ... poor, lonely, old, forgotten by everyone ninja ...

Lol Jay  then they can start selling MK "I killed Scorpion's dog" t-shirts.
Anyway Sub Zero's lack of appeal this game goes down to the fact that his combos are harder to pull off than his usual equal in the game, Scorpion. These two always worked well as equal ability characters in the game since they were competitive. Now Scorpion is quite easy to learn most combos with whereas Sub Zero has it a little more difficult.
Oh and he's not the lonely forgotten ninja. He has Frost with him!
As for the main character now that Liu Kang has gone. Kung Lao is probably set to be the next main good guy character. With his supporting cast being the Sonya/Jax/Kenshi/Cyrax little organisation thing, Johnny Cage, Raiden, Bo Rai Cho etc.

I think the fact that Scorpion hasn't been pushes as the main bad or main good character is what's lead him to not be boring or irritating to many.
As for MK t-shirts. I got a free MKDA t-shirt with the game when I ordered it from gameplay
