Congratulations, and thank you for entertaining me while I have worked. Life was rough the last two years, but I am doing better and glad to see you guys going on. Also thanks Snek for digitally signing my cast after I broke my arm. That was cool as hell.
I'm glad I finally caught up on every episode. Now I can watch the new ones on release. Just wanna say I enjoyed them all. You guys are genuinely entertaining.
I kinda wish NRS would add alternate fatalities like they did in the SNES version of MK1, to help content creators get around the hyperviolence and gore.
2:15:16 Its interesting yet great how the Lin Kuei has slowly become the main clan in the MK universe like the face of MK clans, the White Lotus was debatably bigger before and the brotherhood of shadows was huge in MKX but with the timeline reset, the shirai ryu being absent from the story and hanzo not being around the Lin Kuei has become “the” MK clan. Love it.
It's been the lore since Mythologies that the Lin Kuei kidnap talented kids, supernaturally or otherwise, from throughout the world in order to be trained into members of the clan.
I think I know the reason for the genderswaps, and it's gameplay related. They don't want player to get got by attacking the kameo version of them, thinking it was the main character, so their designs need to be different: Johnny Cage, Cyrax, and Sektor all have an expected look that would necessitate more than just a new costume to get players to distinguish the versions, thus, genderswap versions like Janet.
My theory as to why Sektor and Cyrax aren't too cyberized could be that they are just prototypes and they are just testing it out before they go fully cyber.
Probably too late, but at the end of Reptile's chapter: "And we will never see these two be useful in this game ever again." (Reptile & Ashura). The versions in the final chapter are titans, not OUR Reptile & Ashurah.
Probably an unpopular opinion to the MK games having something for everyone as Dog said, I agree but I'll never enjoy any of those games as much as Injustice 2. After Six years of playing I'm still hopping into Multiverse mode, unlocking the gear (while that However has flaws), having fun matches, and playing as my chunk of characters Something I find I can't do after MK11. X and 11 at least have fun and fair tower modes but lack unlockables after awhile but are still fun meanwhile MK1 has the towers but with the worst modifiers to this day, single rounds, and a battle pass like unlocking system that takes forever. If it was faster, had less modifiers or those that didn't interpret gameplay all the time, and had better rotation with more to unlock like Injustice 2 and 11 then I'd be way more interested However most of the good stuff is only in the store. Anyway, congrats on the 50 episodes, I'm still here and hope for 50 more and then some
54:08 for the most part I said the same exact thing snake has said when it comes to Sareena and Ashura story arc. Also, it would’ve been perfect to have the other two sisterhood of shadow sisters in this game especially coming off the cage match animated movie., Kia and Jataka. You solve the problem of the lack of female characters, whether if that was fabricated by NRS or not, rather than just gender bending classic characters and that would’ve made the DLC pack way more hype with no complaints other than price
Imagine they keep going with sexist bi han and have his reasoning for only them being in cyber suits is because they are women and views them as inferior and while sektor is fine with being strong with her armor while cyrax is a bit uncomfortable with it and has that as their version on cyrax feelings about the cyber initiative
46:54 in MK 11 we all (the fan base) one character from MK 11 that should come back because they can expand on him more was Gearus. But with the way, the story played out in MK1 she really didn’t need to be a spot on the roster. He could’ve just been a cameo story character. ONRS has to do with his character is just he pops up here and there throughout Mortal Kombat when necessary just to see what’s going on with him pretty much like the watcher from Marvel
I can't really complain too much about the Rule 63 Sektor and Cyrax because I'm an huge fan and avid collector of Kotobukiya's Bishoujo statues especially the horror sub series 😅
I've thought about showing my face but that would also require showing my room. I have a camera set up for that... I'm just not brave enough to do it, lol.
16:26 I don’t mind the slideshow when it comes to arcade endings but in the story mode absolutely not that’s what turns me off from soul caliber 6. And I’m good on live action cut scenes those days have been over since the 90s. It can’t be cool in 2024. Trust me I know I’m from that time.
Hey Kings, and or Sonic, if I have a question, should I leave it here and you'll grab it for the future if you want? Or should I wait until there's another Q&A? Thanks gents, good content. 👍👍
That's wishful thinking.. when a company like WB provides budgets like that, they of course want to make sure they get a great return on their investment, by forcing some decisions themselves.
@@Enat1510 I know it’s wishful thinking it’s just a response to the conversation. They was having on the podcast if you click on the timestamp in my first comment.. but to respond to what you’re saying WB never makes the right decisions they killed their own investments and if they keep it up, nobody won’t make it two Kombat pack 3 and I’ll doubt that pack will have another story expansion. It will just be character DLC. And I’m pretty sure they won’t support the game for too much longer after that and then they’ll just start getting ready for injustice. E and hopefully the problems don’t carryover to that game. but I doubt it because WB gaming division has been in shambles for a few years now.
Mortal Kombat usually had low numbers at evo. But they were never this low Jesus 😂 and the fact the first match was cancelled due to “being on the wrong patch”
If I could ask Ed boon anything id ask him if I can add Scorpion and Sub-Zero my fighting game I'll be making and ask him to add my character into an mk game
Besides the microtransactions, this strategy with DLC “expansions” just has the same wretched stench to is as the shtick Capcom kept pushing well past the days of the arcade with just charging for “upgrades” to their fighting games. People figured out to just stop buying these games because they know the “real” version were gonna come out in a year and a half. People were really pissed of by ultra SF4 regardless of their actual opinion of the game itself, people were furious with the state of Marvel vs capcom 3 and UMVC3 didn’t really help take that bitterness from people’s mouths and the of course the final breaking point with SF5 taking several years before it finally felt like a complete proper product in championship edition. How long does nether realm and WB think they can keep playing this trick before the diminishing returns kicks in?
I will never be ok with gender swapping. I hate it. Ive said it everywhere and I’ll say it here. It’s dumb, annoying, lazy, uncreative, disingenuous, and insulting. To make things worse, they aren’t even cyborgs anymore. They’re Ironman! Why? And ya know I find it funny how this is now the third time they failed to fully commit to a female cyborg. They did it with Frost and now Sektor and Cyrax. What’s the hang up, NRS? Women can’t actually cyborgs? Not that I personally count gender swaps as women. They aren’t. This is still an all male pack in my eyes because there aren’t any actual female characters. I could on forever about the rest of this but I’ll stop. I’ll leave off with saying I hate Netherrealm and nearly all that they do.
"Takeda is clearly from another timeline". Oh my poor, sweet innocent 4thSnake.😅

13:15…..Snake we STILL are waiting for Tekken 7 critique
I'm glad I finally caught up on every episode. Now I can watch the new ones on release.
Just wanna say I enjoyed them all. You guys are genuinely entertaining.
2:34:30 After Sonic's statement I'm really starting to wonder who the biggest feet enabler is in the Kombat Kings
I kinda wish NRS would add alternate fatalities like they did in the SNES version of MK1, to help content creators get around the hyperviolence and gore.
I'm an Aussie and I love Snake's Aussie accent! Lol 😅🐉
Congratulations on the milestone you guys are the best ^__^🥳🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🎊🐉👑

What we've all been waiting for!
YAY, happy 50 🐉
Sounds like Toad at: 00:06
Damcit has bean 50 years! 🤯
Yippee #50!!

We fucking made it
50 great videos of snake and dog talking about feet
NRS + Bethesda?
But I'm calling it, the end of M1K is to get to Armageddon where all the characters are back
At the very least we see Shao Kahn embued with the power of blaze.
Probably an unpopular opinion to the MK games having something for everyone as Dog said, I agree but I'll never enjoy any of those games as much as Injustice 2.

this podcast is better than triple ko
Cursed images of Bondage Cyrax and Candleplay Sektor. Damn you!
I can't really complain too much about the Rule 63 Sektor and Cyrax because I'm an huge fan and avid collector of Kotobukiya's Bishoujo statues especially the horror sub series 😅
Can't wait for the 69th episode
So when are snake, dawg, and sonic gonna do an episode where they're all dressed as flesh pits mileena
I've thought about showing my face but that would also require showing my room.
I have a camera set up for that... I'm just not brave enough to do it, lol.
Just dawned on my.
Cyrax... from BOTswana
Morbius is not offensively bad.
Phase 4 MCU films make me want to gauge my eyes from my face.
Morbius is just an early 2000 Comic book movie
50 years old
Replace Tanya for Sonya, Baraka for Kano & Sareena for Nitara
5️⃣ 0️⃣❗️

New game: drink every time when guys pull up their t shirts
1:00:48 ayy my question got answered and yes sonic thats a my dragon oc^^
Sick looking OC XD
Man....dog is actually really funny to bad his content is.....not my thing
Hey Kings, and or Sonic, if I have a question, should I leave it here and you'll grab it for the future if you want? Or should I wait until there's another Q&A? Thanks gents, good content. 👍👍
Leave it in the community notes if ya want us to answer it XD
@@SonicHaXD Gotcha, thanks s4nic :)
16:26 Fire Dominic from NRS. And have WB only pay the budget and not be involved with anything with the game.
That's wishful thinking.. when a company like WB provides budgets like that, they of course want to make sure they get a great return on their investment, by forcing some decisions themselves.

I remember SF4 had to redo an entire top-8 or top-16 because it was discovered halfway through that it was on the wrong patch.
@@jetsetdrift yeah that was funny to ngl😂 but seeing sonic fox boast on twitter was something 😂
Dawg, I just wanna fight CPUs with my brother 😭
With these Genderswaps, just give us some "Premier Skins" like Injustice 2 to give us male and female versions
F*ck the Umgadi! It's lame and they ruined Tanya & Li Mei. However in my head canon I have Geras play the last chapter in story mode 🐉
So is snake just refusing to accept takeda being kenshis cousin now or did he still not know lol
I believe this was filmed pre-Takeda release. I think they said as much in episode 49
This was recorded before episode 49 XD
If I could ask Ed boon anything id ask him if I can add Scorpion and Sub-Zero my fighting game I'll be making and ask him to add my character into an mk game

Never understood why Arcsys & French Bread got a pass for doing this same thing as well with GGXRD & Under-Night
Nuh uh
My problem with Genderswap is, that it's only male to female. Come on give me Daddy Sonya.
That's just Stryker
All big three fighting games has its problems (MK, SF and Tekken). Drug ball sparking zero is going to be the savior of fighting games this year.
LOL
Cope
