I still remember facing Corrupted Shinnok for the first time after playing a lot of MK9, they definitely wanted to make up for the fact that Shao Kahn was slow and very easy to exploit in that game. That meter burned instantaneous, unblockable fire beam is the most broken move in the game.

NPC characters in the NRS games fascinate me. Since they aren’t playable the developers didn’t have to really worry about how they would be balanced in the long term. So they’re effectively either experimental like in the case of Sindel or Tanya. Or hold overs from previous games with new looks like Rain or Baraka

You CAN actually use Barakas Chop-Chop Special to extend combos, but it is very difficult. You have to be in the corner and immediately follow up with d3, s4 into chop-chop again. You can loop this around 3 times for 37+ damage.

I remember messing around in training with this mod with Corrupted Shinnok, and god, it was actually awesome how curiously diverse he was. Yeah, he has a lot of broken stuff, like the Chest Beam restand guaranteeing his unblockable DB2, and generally absurd damage - but he felt almost... weirdly complete. Also, I don't think you mentioned it, but his Pounce attack actually has armor even when performed meterless, and his DF1 rekka attack can be performed with 112, but actually also can be performed with 114 with a low sweep at the end, meaning the rekka had a true 50/50.

Yeah it's sad that these characters would have been badass to play. Honestly if we had gotten Kombat pass 3, they maybe would have made these characters playable. Though rightfully so, people voted for the PC version to be fixed because it would have been a mess if they didn't. If no one doesn't know or remember, their was a poll asking what they wanted to do, Kombat pass 3 or fix the PC port, they chose the PC port because it was broken. Rain definitely needs to be base roster and playable in 12. Sindel looked so great in this game.

I know lots of people feel otherwise but I hate the way NR Studios rotates characters in and out of titles as opposed to the "kitchen sink" approach a lot of fighting games use when the roster just stacks and stacks. I think MK: Armageddon snapped NR out of that habit but sometimes it's really annoying. Injustice 1 my favorite fighter was Solomon Grundy. Now he's gone. In MKX my favorite was Ermac, and he's not exactly some rando - he's a massive fan fave and he's gone. In MK9 Smoke wasn't my favorite but he was in my top 5 and like Ermac, I know he's popular I don't want the bloated rosters but sometimes I wish these characters were the ones added in DLC instead of external IP characters like AvP, Robocop, etc. I'm not a horror fan so the period where NR was focused on getting characters like Freddy Kreuger and Jason was really dumb to me

Big rosters grab attention way better then guest characters do. That’s a certified fact of fighting games, though it definitely takes a lot of work to make that happen. That being said, when SNK prioritized having 50 characters in KOF 14 despite working on a small budget and with a slap dashed engine they made because they couldn’t afford the Unreal Engine, NetherRealm honestly has no excuses to not give us a huge roster
