Wow, thought this was a joke at first. Kinda cool, kinda weird.

Man this looks awesome. Such a great idea to get Omni as guest character in MK. Fits perfectly.

Love Omni-Man being in MK. But it makes Homelander feel redundant. I wish they had picked someone else from The Boys like Butcher.

I think fighting styles will be different

Could be that they counter one another somehow.

Homelander will definitely be a zoner, Omni-man is a bruiser.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

In some ways yes but other ways no since really its weird. Homelander and Omni Man are the same archetype but Homelander is sort of a bitch compared to Omniman since in the universe of the Boys, Homelander doesn't really ever have any challengers that are on "his level" while Omniman is strong but it seems he to actually be challenged by some of the foes he fights. So one has actual combat/fighting experience, the other is an adult brutalizing and murdering babies.

HAH! They actually got J. K. Simmons to voice the character! Niiiice!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I listened for that right away. I just finished another rewatch of Invincible last week.

On that note, I need a live action Korra with Simmons as Tenzin.

so how are folks liking mortal kombat 1 so far? any better than 11?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

It's the same basic gamefeel NRS has been doing for a while now. If you've played MK11, Injustice 1 or 2, you can expect pretty much more of the same baseline experience with new characters, moves, fatalities.

Story is a solid new entry if that's what you're going for.

I like the story mode ended up watching the whole thing on YouTube. I have not played the game

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

It's a decent game, all in all. I rented it and enjoyed it for about 25-30 hours before I got bored of it. That's on par with the previous installments in the series.
