Ghostface is out. Probably can't link the trailer.
I haven't watched all the Scream movies but there's a part in the game play when there were three Ghostfaces around. Did that happen in the movies?
Interesting fatality, haha

Well, l saw a video that showed the movie references with his attacks. Turns out they use moves from the latest Scream movies too? After the original trilogy. Ah, cool for them for being ok with the new ones (which I didn't watch still).
Heard this elsewhere about Ghostface, if anyone is interested. It's apparently spoilers?
"Apparently it’s 3 characters that swap around. Original character, Kobra and Kira from earlier games, you swap them during special moves and their knives give them away.
The voice is Roger L Jackson who is the voice of all of the Ghostfaces in the movies."

The DLC bundle was on sale a couple nights ago. Not sure if it's still on sale right now. But I decided to pull the trigger on it.
MK1 is still far from being my favorite. I just really can't get into it. But I did want to check out Ghost Face and (when it comes out) the T-1000.

T-1000 and Conan look like fun. The idea of it being all the Ghostfaces is inspired.
I just beat the Khaos Reigns in one night. So...kinda short. It was decent, I suppose. But this whole multi-verse thing just gives me a headache. I actually kinda miss the days when the storyline was secondary to the game. Things have just gotten so convoluted ever since Armageddon.
Multiverses for me at this just kill all stakes. Not because multiverse is bad per se. But simply because the way MK handles it just ends being ‘any version, of any one’ can and will turn up, because everything exists everywhere. It just comes off more that NRS didn’t have total faith in their new timeline. So they leave the multiverse open so they can have their cake and eat it.
Khaos Reigns is a muddled let down for me sadly.

Sub-Zero becoming Noob was just, wasted.
I don't mind Sub becoming Noob.
And honestly, multiverses in and of themselves can be done right. But I rarely ever seen it done right.
Why should I care about this reality over any other? Is it an anchor reality? I haven't seen anything to make me care about this reality over any other. We could just as well as follow the reality of the Titan Kitana and I'd be just as invested (which is to say not much).
In the same vein, why should I care about this particular Scorpion? He's not even a Hanzo.
Elseworlds stories might be an interesting diversion. But I'm never going to care for Elseworlds like I would about something that happens in the main universe.
And here the kicker. When I said before that this game just wasn't catching me like the others, I couldn't figure out why. The game play is fine. I didn't know who the heck the first round of guest characters were. But that's honestly okay, because they're killing it with Ghostface, T-000 and even Conan. So I just couldn't figure out why this game was falling so flat for me...until I started ranting just now as I started typing this.
Theoretically a multiverse can be done right. But you have to give me a reason to care about this universe. You have to give me a reason to care about this version of a character. And everything they've done so far is so at odds with any continuity they ever had before...the characters feel so at odds with everything they've ever been...there's simply very little, if anything, that really jives with me in a meaningful way.
The more time passes and the more I hear about it, the less interested I am in playing it...
