I think Injustice Scorpion works well because it's totally its own thing. Most of Scorpion's costumes in the main series are iterations of his classic look, whereas Injustice fully commits to being new and different.
@Jarrych83
@Jarrych83 Жыл бұрын
That's kinda what I was thinking. the Injustice costume just isn't really Scorpion. But it's very much an Injustice universe superhero take on Scorpion and the design language is consistent and unified and it isn't kitchy. That's the problem with some of the "bug inspired" ideas is that it feels kitchy and costumy in a bad way.

I got chills about the emotion on Scorpion's face when Hanzo died... "The Fire Gardens... They have been restored?" Genuine wonder on his face. And then actual sadness when Hanzo dies. Scorpion, the spectre who wants nothing but revenge... Was probably the most human characters in MK11. But I don't want to see D'Vorah ever again, I'm serious. She's a plot device, not a character.

I'm not a huge fan of the injustice costume, but I do love some of the ideas and themes. The reserved attachment to the physical representation of the Scorpion idea checks out. Fits in more with the superhero aesthetic. AND also makes me really want a game where scorpion uses a kusarigama. It makes so much sense.

The one thing that I really like about MK1's design philosophy is that the characters look very "real" to me in a way that MK11's didnt. Don't get me wrong, MK11 looks amazing, but MK1 characters look a lot more natural and I kind of enjoy that not every fighter is jacked or shredded. Li Mei straight up looks like a yoga instructor or runner from her body type, but then she's doing crazy scissor kicks in mid air and launching you into the air with a purple Chinese energy lion. It's almost a surprise that she's so badass based on her physical characteristics and I kind of love that. They made the characters look super appealing and realistic and let their move sets and abilities express why they're so powerful.

MK11's Scorpion somehow conveyed sadness, rage, and wonder. *Scorpion,* not Hanzo. (Hanzo looks just as good imo, but I'm stressing the spectre) An undead spectre felt like the most human character in the game. "The Fire Gardens, they have been restored?" His eyes are still dead, but the voice and expression are very much alive.

I feel that she's like that because they have only one female body mesh, so all of them have to be REALLY skinny and not look like fighters. Im kinda sad by it (though not surprised since this is the MK philosophy for a while now, of having 1 bodymesh for females, 1 for males and 1 for big body males) cause the varying body types really give variety to the cast - like some of them being better kickers, other more agile, others more bulky... With the female characters all looking like that, it gets repetitive and loses its shine. After all, you can only repeat the same trope so much before it gets stale

I’ve always like Scorpions designs throughout the years of MK. My personal favorite design from Scorpion is MK Deception’s 1st costume. It has a lot going on and I do love the mask, the body outfit did it for me with the samurai-like outfit; the spike on his wrist personifies scorpions identity. I would give it a 8/10 MK11 scorpion design is without a doubt a 10/10🔥(Definitely looking forward to the next visual history)

About the Armageddon Scorpion. I think what threw me off about it at the time was not only was it less busy, but the outfit just seemed too smooth and had different lighting or saturation, not sure how to properly describe it. Compared to the rest of the kombat kast with their detailed outfits, it was out of place with its simplicity. As an aside, I loved his alt in Deadly Alliance.

I just want to say, thank you for making your intro 10 seconds. A while back I was dealing with a LOOOOT of mental health issues (most of which made me EXTREMELY irritable no matter how much I tried to just cope and deal with things). I had an episode at some point and complained that the intro was 15 seconds rather than 10 (which is the increment that KZbin allows you to skip forward on mobile) and I don’t know if you changed it because of the increment of KZbin time skips and/or people with irritability or not… but I definitely appreciate it. I’m doing much better now a days (was like 4 years ago when I was doing that bad). Dealt with a lot of things that stress me out and blah blah blah….

I do like his design in mk1 but like... it's Kuai Liang and not Hanzo Hasashi. That still bothers me a little bit that it's not Hanzo. I've heard a bunch of different rumors about what could be going on with Hanzo in this timeline and i dislike most of them. I've heard that he might just be chilling with his family and he's finally found that peaceful life he's been after for so long. I like that idea. I can get behind that. But then I've also heard that he might be the grandmaster of the lin kuei and the father of Bi Han and Kuai Liang. And I absolutely HATE that idea. If that is what they did with Hanzo in this timeline, not only do I personally think it's a stupid idea but it might also be a little culturally insensitive. I mean think about it, Bi Han and Kuai Liang are both Chinese names. Lin kuei is literally Chinese for "forests demons". So to make Hanzo Hasashi (a very Japanese name) the grandmaster of this ancient Chinese ninja clan and the father of these 2 Chinese men, that's kinda like saying: "eh Chinese Japanese same shit!"
@RotaAbyssian
@RotaAbyssian Жыл бұрын
The only way I reconcile the "Hanzo is their father" thing would be that they aren't related by blood. When you are Lin Kuei, you are family, thus the Grandmaster is your father regardless of blood. I wouldn't LIKE it, but that's what my mind jumps to.

In all fairness, Chinese Ninja's as a concept kinda fall into the idea of "Chinese Japaenese same shit!" I like that in the new timeline they're hard committing to things being different.

Scorpion is one of the best Looking Characters in the Franchise, especially MK, MK2, UMK3, MK vs. DC, MK9, MKX, MK11, and MK1 with the Vibrant Yellow and Gold Masks, Sub-Zero would be a Longer List.

MK11's probably one of my favorite Scorpions too. MKA and MKD aren't too bad either. The added red in MK11 and added White to MK11 Sub-Zero that make them look slick without loosing what they are meant to be.

Haven’t watched it yet, but to me, Scorp is the one ninja who’s pretty much the same over all the years. Even Sub had his weird Shredder phase and also that weird one where he was bald

I think this is the first time I've ever disagreed with Max. Scorp's MK9 costume is my favorite. Most badass skin he's ever had.

Scorpion for sure design-wise has it consistently the best of all the male ninjas, with arguably Rain following close behind. Sub-Zero has his bad unmasked designs pre-MKX revenant, Reptile has more bad than good, Ermac has MK1, Noob Saibot being a black silhouette initially, and Smoke has his nanobot suit.

2:02 Yes sir. I feel the exact same way. I've always thought the MK2 and MK3 suits for "Ninjas were the absolute best. For "Rain my favorite MK11. But It feels really good to hear someone say that out loud. Especially you bro 👍

MK4 Scorpion probably suffered a lot from the quality of 3d models at the time, maybe if it was made into a real costume like mk 1 to umk3 were it'd look better.

Max didn't verbally said it, but i guess that what makes Injustice Scorp work is the hood and the mask. And it shows that it works bc since then, he always has the hood design

I know MK is topical but I’d love this to be a series for all kinds of Fighting Game characters. Max ranting about how bad 3D Ken Masters looks until he gets got Smash Bros is something I need to see.

There's a reason for the more golden colored and armored Scorpion around the time of Deception in the game's lore, it's not just them choosing to make him look more that way. He became the chosen warrior and Champion of the Elder God's, and was given a powerup and upgrade to his abilities, gear, etc... This explains the transition.

My first MK was UMK3 on SNES where it cut many things including "Get over here" line and leaving only "Come here" one. I was so confused when people talking about his iconic line because I only remember the lesser known "Come here"

I'd say my top 5 favorite Scorpion designs are, his alternate in Deception/MK4 cuz they're practically the same. MK2, Deadly Alliance, the 1995 movie, and the opening cutscene in Shaolin Monks. Really love his alternate in MK9 as well. Sure it's a bit much, but I love it so much.

MK11 Scorpion is incredible imho because there's something about the combination of hellfire combos and red that elevated his design. Seeing it come back for MK1 made me so freaking happy, and keeping the red in his default outfit was perfect.

Difference in art style. Liu Kang painted the canvas with warmth and piece more off humble beginnings. MK11 felt like a Marvel End Game aesthetic. Still top tier.
