[@HanDaimond]

Was never a fan of their designs before, looked kinda amateurish or edgy, they've treated their characters like action toys. At least it changed for MK11, which currently has the best character designs; NR have matured enough to really pay attention to the designs and make most of their characters look sick, too bad they've fumbled it with Cetrion, I think she's hot.

[@niwona_]

Revenant designs being the default for so many really uglifies the roster. It's great that NRS gives so many alternates for free though to get around some bad base designs, opposed to some other games. Overall they have a lot of mid designs, but there are so many that it makes up for it with the sheer amount of options.

[@Alector12]

It really is a shame when they have bangers like Kitana, Sindel and Jade to name a few and my first thought seeing them on the select screen is a slight revulsion from their ugly gray skin. Revenant should have been an alternate and not the other way around, lore be damned.

Its like you didnt even give Liu Kang a chance these costumes are some of the coolest he had it really feels like you got beef with Liu.

"this game is like Smash Bros. if your dad picked all the characters" is the most accurate summery of MK ever.

[@lckaboom6810]

[@SonicMegaKing]

Too short, especially cause it only shows the beginning part and not the conclusion.

[@livion7]

I actually love the Shao Kahn helmet. And Spawn is perfection.

[@SilentKGaming]

I understand he had to think about time, but I really wish he could’ve checked out the classic Shao helmet. Makes a big difference

[@baranda0]

Spawn is so clean in this game, especially his comic outfit. Damn it they should put him in mk1!…

[@keithshaughnessy1730]

Cetrion's design relies heavily on her interchangeable parts. Made mine look great with the ashen color scheme and wing like tentacles and head dress.

[@isaiahacevedo541]

[@gimmeyourrights8292]

I'm one of the few people who liked Shang Tsung's base costume. The color pallette is a reference to his original design in the arcades. With the yellow pants and all.

[@jakuth99]

I’m like 5 minutes in and I already kind of have an issue. A lot of gear pieces, like masks and helmets, are such big, integral pieces of the character that I think it’s a bit unfair to rate everything with the default gear when a costume might be designed with a specific gear piece in mind (e.g., a lot of classic costumes came with gear pieces that resemble their classic equivalent)

[@Taunt61]

cetrion costumes look a lot better with different head thingies and hair stuff. i spent a good chunk of time playing dressup with her

[@SilentKGaming]

Yes, playing Fashion Kombat was definitely a thing in this game to make your character look just right

[@eldrichnemo9312]

I wish Max had the time to do fashion ratings on the characters, especially when the gear names have some deep lore names that make you question character relationships

[@kara9516]

Always wondered how Judge Dredd has never got into these games i think hed fit so well Also Lobo he was in injustice but i feel he would be perfect for the ultra violence of MK

[@Skunkybutt]

Max mentioning Mike Matei when talking about the Joker had me on the floor. I remember when all that shit was happening during the Kombat Pack 1 Announce Trailer and even Mike making some jokes about it.

[@richie404]

[@yahirvargas2985]

14:33 "She kinda bad tho, is that frost?" 😂

[@forrestredd2706]

That wrap-around outfit for Jaqui should have been her default. It is so good, and her base outfit makes her look like a nameless NPC.

[@jaredberry4762]

Both Raiden and Fujin's defaults are some of my favorite character designs ever, not to mention their VA's knock it out of the park as well.

[@user-gw3bs2in5i]

I honestly love the simplicity of a fair amount of these costumes. This is the game where they really committed to the character's faces being super realistic so there wasn't too much of a reason to get overly-intricate with their designs.

[@wardawgjb3376]

Not liking nightwolf’s revenant skins is actually insane

Gunslinger Spawn is an easy 10/10. One of my favorite designs in the game.

I PERSONALLY think Rain's best design is either his klassic MK Trilogy design. Or MK9. He was the first DLC character I bought for MK9. So many memories playing with that character.

[@isaiahacevedo541]

A lot say his Armageddon design is their favorite, and I agree it’s one of his best. He looks like a true prince in that game, also his MKX skin I think was really nice too, and I agree his MK9 skin was really nice.

I found this channel through the “Rate the Fatals” and “Rate the Costumes” videos of Mortal Kombat, and have been waiting for you to cover 11 for over a year. Glad to know the wait was worth it :).

[@BlizzWaveEdits]

Bro went 0 for 0 with Liu Kang. Those costumes are awesome

[@trevorghalt1881]

Nightwolf design is awesome but I would say Undead Nightwolf should have been at 8 because the face paint is pretty great also Spawn, Shao Kahn & fire god Liu Kang looks fantastic

He definetly looks the best from the undead fighters.

[@Frgt10Dreamer]

Would love to see him do rate the intros/outros

[@MrZaku-rh4qt]

Skarlet design's so badass, sleek as hell

[@eldrichnemo9312]

I wish Max had time to do deep dives on gear pieces if only because some of them have names that give you lore clues, like Jade having a staff that was a gift from Raiden, Kung Lao with bracers from Nitara, Scorpion with a few items referring to his wife and son; I think Geras has one that points to the direction of his character in MK1

[@yamilramirez1571]

I'm so glad I'm not the only person that thinks the character models look better in mk 11 than in mk 1. The ambience and effects, I can give it to 1, but I just feel the faces look more consistently real in 11.

[@lightskinjay1131]

Man I'm Right There With You Yamil

[@neevko267]

mk11 nailed a realistic style that wasn't gritty like MKX, and I love it for that

[@isaiahacevedo541]

I think MK1 was going for a bit less realism maybe? At least compared to 11, but yeah I LOVE how realistic 11 looks, parts of it look photorealistic to me. I do agree that MK1 looks better when u play it in person than compressed YT footage but I do think it’s still slightly a bit more cartoonish than 11. It still has some realism but it’s like a mix/in between cartoonish and realism.

[@retierashia]

Personally, MK11’s Liu Kang base design is my favorite of all Liu Kang designs.

[@bungieman2810]

[@zachataxxii7126]

Alternative gear might help save it, but a lot of the default fits in MK1 are just too generic to be exciting. Like, this is 2023, why does Scorpion, Sub-Zero, and Smoke still look like palette swaps when this game differentiates the ninjas pretty well? Then, you have the most boring Johnny Cage design when he had some pretty great alts here (the military default is pretty eh, though I don't really care for Special Forces to begin with), and Li Mei, her big return since the 3D era, having the same costume as the NPCs around her (ironically, besides her, most of the Edenians in MK1 are probably the only characters I could argue look their best here than in previous games)
