The full Trailer for MK1: Homelander is here:

 

[KyoZz]

Ooooof Antony Starr is looking very weird on some shots.

 

[begotten]

NRS are turning into shit.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Modern MK is just so disappointing.....

Why won't these fuckers make a Klassic Arcade Collection of the 1st 4 Arcade games? It's infuriating at this point....

 

[Dacvak]

I could have sworn we saw this trailer already.

 

[FeralEcho]

"We have Antony Starr at home"

 

[MDSLKTR]

Zero excitement for this and I bought the character pass.

 

[Jooxed]

I was more excited to see Ferra

 

[kunonabi]

So boring. I don't know why they thought we needed 3 super heroes, including two store brand evil Superman characters.

 

[Fake]

Are they reusing Superman animations from Injustice?

 

[ReBurn]

I could have sworn we saw this trailer already.

This one seems to have more footage.

 

[Spyxos]

The days of good Mortal Kombat games are probably over. I still haven't bought it yet and somehow I don't want to.

Work smarter not harder philosophy at NRS

Everything about MK1 screams that it was IJ3 before they changed it up mid development, so it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

It’s just one bad one, right? I thought X and 11 were considered good.

 

[CGNoire]

Yep dat voice aint it.

I only liked 11.

They seriously need to revamp their animation department. Movement looks absolutely terrible Holy shit

 

[SSfox]

Crossover Kombat 1

MK would lose its identity if the animators animated it differently.
The team is actually top tier, with quite alot of them coming from the film industry, they are told to animate the game like a Mortal Kombat game.
If they were as shit as people keep assuming they are the cutscenes would all look like shit, and you can tell how good they are from the facial animations you see even during the combat start.

 

[A.Romero]

I didn't know MK1 was regarded badly. I have liked it so far (no character pass, though).

 

[Northeastmonk]

No kidding. That looks exactly like Superman’s moveset.

 

[K' Dash]

looks fine, lots of drama.

Press down 3 with any character and it just looks stupid. I don’t think the animation quality is bad but the games just don’t look good in motion compared to other games in the genre.

 

[Bring Back Scalebound]

*Looks fine, to me. Some people here clearly don't think so, or have an issue with cameos in MK 1. I don't get it, but that's fine.

To each their own, I guess.

I wish they would go back to Mk1 style. old kung fu movie vibe

caracters wise, the franchise become a shit show. we got a policeman, a cowboy, an indian. the whole YMCA

 

[Warablo]

I liked Mk9, didn't get into X as much, havent played 11.

 

[//DEVIL//]

This gotta be the most boring move set i have seen on any character. Oh My God so boring. and laser spamming of course because they dropped the ball on the move set they dont know what to do with this character.

this whole Mk1 was a disappointment. which is sad really. because I used to love the series. Mk9 was amazing. then they started adding these useless characters after that and it all went to shit story and characters.

 

[Jack Package]

You can see the reused Superman Injustice animations lmao

 

[Calverz]

Based on this trailer, they failed to encapsulate what makes homelander, well homelander. Shame as I got the pass.

 

[Macattk15]

They couldn't pay Anthony Starr to voice him? He's part of what makes Homelander.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Quotes like this from Ed about a recent poll he did make it clear why we haven't seen the 1st 4 Arcade games in a Kollection......kind of sad tbh that he sees us old heads this way
