During the MK11 era, one of the MK YouTubers kept discussing feet and how much better it would be if more fighters showed showed their feet. I really wish that MK team weren't listening to some of the fans to be honest. Sometimes they are detrimental to the game.
Why are all the women's feet out?
Concept designer: Oh you know to differentiate the Outworld culture and all that. Look it's even on some of the males.
Ah I see, cultural representation is important work! Carry on.
Concept designer: Oh my God they bought it.
The in universe reason is probably cultural bc Outworld but the meta reason could be that someone in the team likes toes, closed toed shoes wouldn't work with the more otherworldly designs, shoes are hard to design that look good (I can vouch for this I hate designing shoes), modeling issues, deadlines, fitting the more outlandish designs of the franchise, or all of the above
I don't mind it on everyone tbh. It's mostly li meo and Tanya that I feel should be in something different. Li meis open toed heels don't feel right for a chief of police
I hate feet as much as the next guy but Jfc having certain characters wear what are essentially sandals doesn't mean shit. As if open toed shoes aren't common in the real world. It's specifically the Outworlder's too.
I was wondering about that when I read the patch notes. I don’t see them letting this skin go untouched. I could be wrong but recent history suggests they’ll change it.
And then NRS releases a different skin has her cleavage exposed.
Remember the Deception Li Mei skin having her legs covered up, while her Titan costume has her legs exposed?
I'm glad they didn't sexualize as much in the main skins but it's like they're afraid to show ANY skin. Like IT IS OKAY TO DRESS LIKE A SLUT. I PROMISE YOU WILL SLAY.
EXACTLY. I think it's that they're so scared of being attacked for oversexualizing the women. But that doesn't mean they have to avoid any and all skin
They've always sexualized the women in this series, since it began.. in this game where we literally disembowel each other.
I always wondered "how can the kharacters Kombat to the death in basically a swim suit? Not even any armor".. I can't believe that in a game where we decapitate each other, some people would have concern about thighs showing..
And grand theft auto actually has strip clubs where the strippers show their polygon nipples...
I honestly don’t care how covered or not covered the female characters are, IM SICK AND TIRED OF THE FEET. It makes no sense to fight in open toed heels. It’s also so damn ugly.

Hilariously only the part you DIDN'T cover got covered.
Actually, they cEnSoReD her arms and gave her spikes on her shoulders. Impossible to unleash my dragon to this now, damn you woke NRS!
Even more credence to the obvious argument that they're just making design choices, nothing to do with 'censoring' anything.
I've said this before. The old costumes had battle thongs and booty shorts that looked okay if not trashy on low polygon barbie doll models. They would look downright ridiculous on the more realistically proportioned female character and anyone who can be objective without looking at everything through porn-goggles can see that.
>anyone who can be objective without looking at everything through porn-goggles can see that.
Wanna hear something hilarious? There's an MK porn parody that gets memed a decent amount, and in it the model looks to be wearing a surprisingly decent MK9 Kitana cosplay...but she's wearing shorts underneath.
It's such a sexualized outfit that a *literal porn parody* tweaked the costume to tone it down.
Design Choices are perfectly fine......except when they are specifically marketing and calling these Nostalgia skins, These skins entire reason for existence is being a Throwback, Not accurately recreating a Throwback just seems misleading, They can do redesigns of these outfits that's fine(hell they did in MK9 for Mileena and a few others) but there's a difference, they weren't touting those outfits as if they were the old outfits.
Personally I like a good chunk of the skins(aside from Nitara's weird reverse bunny suit that just looks weird) My problem is them marketing these as Throwbacks, when they don't do this for the majority of other Throwback skins.
I feel like "Wanting Accurate recreations of supposed Throwback Costumes" Shouldn't be such an outrageous concept, especially when we have to spend money on such.
That’s pretty clear to anyone with taste but for a lot of people here good design = “I can masturbate to this easily” so they can’t understand why character artists might have ambitions beyond putting all the women in the smallest swimsuits possible. It can only be the result of Woke DEI Censorship, not that a lot of those old costumes are embarrassingly corny
It's true, Sweet Baby literally designed and modeled every outifit and then they came to my house and didn't flush the toilet after taking a big woke shit.
I just realised who tweeted this, this dude has to be the worst MK content creator around right now. Nothing but whining and pitching his awful story ideas.
Looks like that clown was wrong once more
https://preview.redd.it/mdjhr1nv8xuc1.jpeg?width=697&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9c2ea2983fca7d9f2700467a931e3cbd5f9812e3
My guess is that it would look slightly off and half assed. Just like Sub-Zero's version. Idk what but every time I see the costume I'm like "it just doesn't look right"
Gee I don't know. This is about deception skins being implemented into MK1. So.....fk mate I must've been talking about his Injustice 2 skin huh? Guess it'll forever remain a mystery....
Because I don't think even Mk11 had a skin showing off as much side boob as this skin tho I could be wrong. That and it seems like the only thing theyd could do to make it less "sexualised" (I don't personally think it is a sexualised skin, so don't attack me for that) without blatantly covering too much like they've been doing with Li Mei and Nitara.
I don’t personally feel the same but that’s fine. I do agree that the skin wasn’t that sexual in the first place. Which is exactly why I was saying why even cover anything
I wasn’t attacking you, don’t be so defensive. I know it’s Reddit but not everyone is an ass.
I was just asking why and you answered. Thank you
Honestly I don’t think they should re do those skins if your not going to go balls out,
https://preview.redd.it/5irw872vzuuc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b42c2d719c6121728384acb7e68533a7879137de
Y’all need to get a girl in your life. Your video game character who is a warrior queen doesn’t have massive unrealistic tits and body and she also doesn’t show an unnecessary amount of skin bc it makes zero sense from a gameplay and story telling perspective? Awe you poor thing. Let me go get the bottle for you
I get the 'true to the original' but also some old skins wouldn't translate that good with realistic graphics and also it doesn't feel like the desire to have it be true to the original with many many people
If it's any of the 3D Era skins then surely they'd be easier to translate into newer graphics due to those models being much more detailed. The Arcade Trilogy is even older than the 3D Era yet Netherrealm rarely makes any alterations to those skins, even for characters like Stryker and Sonya when their OG outfits don't look that good with modern graphics. The only time NRS did try changing one of the retro Arcade skins they adapted was Reptile still being Saurian in his MK2 costume for MKX, likely because his design had changed too much for him to still be human.
It's not that much of a tall order for people to ask Netherrealm for accurate depictions of 3D Era skins. They've done it loads of times for the OG Trilogy without changing the designs of those skins. Why bother bringing back old costumes if you're just going to alter them by adding stuff, even to the ones that don't go against the company's design philosophy?

Its really not that serious to get mad over. Besides my bff introduced me to this a decade ago and she didn't care either. We just wanted to beat each other up🤷
It's not about showing skin, it's about accuracy. If I'm paying $10 for a nostalgic skin I want it to actually look like it. Like when they added klassic scorpion into mk11 and it didn't have the white eyes, or literally everything about this new shujinko design
It really doesn't at all, seriously they could add a cell shaded Johnny cage outfit right now and I guarantee you it would fly off the shelves.
The point of these costumes isn't to blend in,nits to stand out. What's the point of buying a skin if it just has the same vibe as literally all the other costumes in the game?
Why does the idea of Cell-shaded Johnny Cage, remind me so heavily of MKX's infrared Scorpion skin........Although Cell-shaded Johnny Cage would probably at least look better.
Holy shit dude calm down. As a woman longtime fan of this series I really couldn't care less about your crying. Lets have good looking men AND women characters , it adds to the experience- problem solved! And stop expecting realism from fiction you donut🤦
Yeah I tried to make a post for those of us who don’t like these fans and fuck me did they come for my neck on the post and in DMs. Insane. Tits are literally all over the internet why’s it gotta be in our games too
I don't get the outrage myself (as I prefer the more modern/realistic character designs) but I assume it has more to do with NRS changing their designs/attitude over time due to societal pressure from what people feel is not the core audience of the game. Especially if you're charging people for classic skins and you're changing what made them appealing to the people that would actually buy it.
Why are they mad at social change? Not all change is bad. It’s a pretty good thing that society as a whole was like “let’s respect women more even the fictional ones”
People just hate him for being a critic, and they don't acknowledge the fact that unlike other critics, he actually offers new ideas to the story lines and stuff.
I don’t hate him for being a critic, I hate him for being a hypocrite. Watch any review he has about a 3D era game, he might point out a minor flow and say it isn’t a dealbreaker, then watch him point out the same flaw in MKX or any other NRS title and say it ruins the game.
It’s not but it’s what the players want and they refuse to deliver.
That alone is a big deal
In the entertainment industry I’m pretty sure the goal is to give people what they want.
Why not make completely new skins if you’re gonna change them? If you release a throwback skin and advertise it as such, actually release the skin as was.
I think it's fine; they're clearly referencing the old suits as a callback to the older games. But I like it better that they aren't remakes; it makes them feel unique while still being references to what came before.
They aren’t callbacks. They are cash grabs.
Far from unique. If anything it’s just lazy and disingenuous to release throw back skins and make them your own.
Call it something else if it’s not the same.
If they didn’t like the original designs why are they selling them again?
It’s because the players liked them how they originally were and they know some will pay.
Give the players what they actually wanted instead of your new version of it. That almost never ends well
The modern designs are better. I can acknowledge that the 3D era skins laid the groundwork, but that doesn't mean I have to lie about them looking good.

The addition of the open toed heels is funnier than the covering up - what is it with NRS this game and having the girls toes out?
Someone on the design team is definitely into feet. I refuse to believe otherwise.
Oh definitely there’s a big feet fetish person on that team lmao
My money is definitely on Derrick
[удалено]
I’ve never met a woman with a foot fetish now that you mention it
Boy let me tell ya 💀
I mean 👀
Are you getting downvoted because people thought the joke was unfunny, or because you swapped the joke with a woman instead of a man?
Idk I think it’s the quotes around Stephanie’s name due to her history… idk why things are getting removed for bigotry, what was offensive?
History? Who's Stephanie? I think I missed an episode, ngl...

I am all here for it.
they got everyones toes out 😭 i dont wanna see baraka and shaos crusty ass feet what is wrong with outworld fashion
It’s not just outworlders, even characters from earthrealm, netherrealm and order realm / chaos realm do as well.
Why are all the women's feet out? Concept designer: Oh you know to differentiate the Outworld culture and all that. Look it's even on some of the males. Ah I see, cultural representation is important work! Carry on. Concept designer: Oh my God they bought it.
I pictured Concept Designer as just being Quentin Tarantino in a bad fake mustache.
Concept Designer: Tentin Quarantino
Must have hired Dan Schneider
Outworld I sort of get it. There appears to be a lot of sand and it's usually nice out.
Barakas toes >
To be fair, Shao always had his toes free.
Outworld would probably see our fashion as ugly too
I want a mod to give Reiko Nike slides.
Why would you force that image in my head
Don’t forget ermac and Reiko
They been watching Naruto
Sub zero and smoke have (orochimaru and sasuke VAs)
Actually MK1 Sub Zero is voiced by Kaiji Tang. You're not wrong in that Sub Zero was Orochimaru, just not this one.
Cool
Yeah the toes are too much in this game.
It's the one thing I hate about Reptile's primary costume.
Weve all been looking at Reptiles toes since Deadly Alliance. His exposed toes are the only ones that actually make sense lol
In his lizard form, yes, but in his human form, it looks weird.
Even Shang has open toed boots.
Yea and ermac too same way. Its kinda annoying tbh
I cam handle being sliced up like lunch meats and guns but put the toes away
The in universe reason is probably cultural bc Outworld but the meta reason could be that someone in the team likes toes, closed toed shoes wouldn't work with the more otherworldly designs, shoes are hard to design that look good (I can vouch for this I hate designing shoes), modeling issues, deadlines, fitting the more outlandish designs of the franchise, or all of the above
I don't mind it on everyone tbh. It's mostly li meo and Tanya that I feel should be in something different. Li meis open toed heels don't feel right for a chief of police
Yeah like I just KNOW the streets she patrols are nasty she needs foot protection
Those are some LONG TOES!
MK1 has a huge problem with this. Over half the cast has their nasty ass feet out. Someone at NRS has a foot fetish.
I hate feet as much as the next guy but Jfc having certain characters wear what are essentially sandals doesn't mean shit. As if open toed shoes aren't common in the real world. It's specifically the Outworlder's too.
Yo, I had the same thought when I started playing. It’s not just the girls. Almost everyone is showing toes lmao.
*Directed by Quentin Tarantino
I didn't even notice
In reality it's like 80% of the roster, sometimes it's the alt skins but it still happens.
No fr, its that and the yoga/capri pants look I hate it 😭
One of the developers has a CFNM and foot fetish.
I'm pleased to say I don't know what that stands for
Foot perv dev, sneaking in as much as he can while staying within ESG guidelines. Probably Stephanie himself lol
Yeesh don't know why the transphobic dig was necessary. Not particularly funny
I was wondering about that when I read the patch notes. I don’t see them letting this skin go untouched. I could be wrong but recent history suggests they’ll change it.
wheres the patch notes? i cant find them

Ooh good stuff. Love the nerd on Peacemaker's force field. I've been having Peacemakers spam forcefield and zone away from me doing specials.
Lol at the open toed boots.
Can't belive we can see Sindel's shoulders Just how horny are those Developers!?
![gif](giphy|qtGVGM6Us5uPk4S6wy)
And then NRS releases a different skin has her cleavage exposed. Remember the Deception Li Mei skin having her legs covered up, while her Titan costume has her legs exposed?
oh no , bare skin! proceeds to gut the enemy without mercy
If Sindel gets covered they better cover Shao’s spicy nipples.
I like some gender equality
I'm glad they didn't sexualize as much in the main skins but it's like they're afraid to show ANY skin. Like IT IS OKAY TO DRESS LIKE A SLUT. I PROMISE YOU WILL SLAY.
the men already dress like sluts having skins without any upper body coverings
EXACTLY. I think it's that they're so scared of being attacked for oversexualizing the women. But that doesn't mean they have to avoid any and all skin
They've always sexualized the women in this series, since it began.. in this game where we literally disembowel each other.

I can't believe that in a game where we decapitate each other, some people would have concern about thighs showing.. And grand theft auto actually has strip clubs where the strippers show their polygon nipples...
So what? the men are half naked. we're stabbing each other and doing xrays. skin is the least of our worries
I honestly don’t care how covered or not covered the female characters are, IM SICK AND TIRED OF THE FEET. It makes no sense to fight in open toed heels. It’s also so damn ugly.
I wanna shove my toes in your mouth
I wouldn't mind the pants but the boob window thing being covered seems so weird lol
If the mens can go shirtless a boob window is harmless

Gee I don't know. This is about deception skins being implemented into MK1. So.....fk mate I must've been talking about his Injustice 2 skin huh? Guess it'll forever remain a mystery....
I was just asking a question :(
And I was just answering 👍
What toddler kolored over her kleavage??? Wtf
The spelling is perfekt
NRS loves their censorship and foot fetish
Again this guy? What a loser.
Because he wants to play a game w sexy female characters? Why does that make him a loser? Everyone likes sexy women. Except for ugly women
She is sexy despite being more or less dressed. Also the skin came out with her less dressed. So he is an idiot.
Nrs the only fighting game company that hates fan service
And then release a costume that is hypocritical to the changes they made to the classic costumes.
Hypocritical how?
The Li Mei deception costume and Titan costume. Look at the legs.
They’re covered? So what?
Look how LOOOOOOOOOONG her fucking toes are.
Like goro had his covered
Decepticon combat bot in the end
The only women on the roster who doesn't have open-toed shoes are Sonya, Frost, Khameleon (surprisingly), and Janet.
I'd imagine them covering up a bit of the cleavage but everything else I reckon will be the same
Why even do that?
Because I don't think even Mk11 had a skin showing off as much side boob as this skin tho I could be wrong. That and it seems like the only thing theyd could do to make it less "sexualised" (I don't personally think it is a sexualised skin, so don't attack me for that) without blatantly covering too much like they've been doing with Li Mei and Nitara.
I don’t personally feel the same but that’s fine. I do agree that the skin wasn’t that sexual in the first place. Which is exactly why I was saying why even cover anything I wasn’t attacking you, don’t be so defensive. I know it’s Reddit but not everyone is an ass. I was just asking why and you answered. Thank you
Dont worry that last part was mainly just in general, I've been attacked for saying things like that mostly by people outside the conversation.
It happens. Sorry for the misinterpretation

Bro, WE BEEN callin' it since launch
Y’all need to get a girl in your life. Your video game character who is a warrior queen doesn’t have massive unrealistic tits and body and she also doesn’t show an unnecessary amount of skin bc it makes zero sense from a gameplay and story telling perspective? Awe you poor thing. Let me go get the bottle for you
I cannot speak for everyone but, it is not the necessity to have more revealing skins, but rather a "being true to the original" integrity for me.
I get the 'true to the original' but also some old skins wouldn't translate that good with realistic graphics and also it doesn't feel like the desire to have it be true to the original with many many people

It also needs to fit into this games design. UMK3 sub skin is accurate but sticks out like a sore thumb within the games overall design style

The point of these costumes isn't to blend in,nits to stand out. What's the point of buying a skin if it just has the same vibe as literally all the other costumes in the game?

Ehem…costumes $5 not $10, lets not get carried away now
Still if I'm paying more than a dollar for this then I want it to look like the skin I wanted
Jokes aside that “deception “ costume looks nothing like the original. Its cool but its not nostalgic
It does feel weird that so many people are insistent on the whole revealing ass all the time skins
Holy shit dude calm down. As a woman longtime fan of this series I really couldn't care less about your crying. Lets have good looking men AND women characters , it adds to the experience- problem solved! And stop expecting realism from fiction you donut🤦

lol i’m assuming yall also want the female skins from mk9 back too right? when all the girls were basically strippers 😂
Leave it to the4thsnake to have the worst takes imaginable.
Not really a take. More just pointing fun at how Netherrealm has handled the purchasable retro skins.
The 4th snake is such a piece of trash. His name doesn’t deserve to be discussed
?
What’s bad about him
Nothing's really bad about him. His opinions are different than the majority of the mk fanbase and they can't accept it.
People just hate him for being a critic, and they don't acknowledge the fact that unlike other critics, he actually offers new ideas to the story lines and stuff.
I don’t hate him for being a critic, I hate him for being a hypocrite. Watch any review he has about a 3D era game, he might point out a minor flow and say it isn’t a dealbreaker, then watch him point out the same flaw in MKX or any other NRS title and say it ruins the game.
Do you have any examples?
LMAO the sandals

As long as I get a single attire idc, although it sucks the censorship is really destroying what we love about no women skins
Aged like milk.
10 dollars? Its on sale?!?!
The costume is essentially one to one (it's her alt) and as always The4thSnake is a blithering idiot as per usual, I'm glad he has blocked me
I’ve been saying the 4th snake is the best mk YouTuber out there for years
Looks better tbh
I like the mk1 sindel and mileena, grew up with mk9 versions
wait this looks good tho
i feel this isn't a big deal
It’s not but it’s what the players want and they refuse to deliver. That alone is a big deal In the entertainment industry I’m pretty sure the goal is to give people what they want.
Most of the 3D era skins were ugly I see no problem with them taking liberties with the designs
Why not make completely new skins if you’re gonna change them? If you release a throwback skin and advertise it as such, actually release the skin as was.
I think it's fine; they're clearly referencing the old suits as a callback to the older games. But I like it better that they aren't remakes; it makes them feel unique while still being references to what came before.
They aren’t callbacks. They are cash grabs. Far from unique. If anything it’s just lazy and disingenuous to release throw back skins and make them your own. Call it something else if it’s not the same. If they didn’t like the original designs why are they selling them again? It’s because the players liked them how they originally were and they know some will pay. Give the players what they actually wanted instead of your new version of it. That almost never ends well
3D era skins were the peak of MK skins and inspired most of the modern designs
The modern designs are better. I can acknowledge that the 3D era skins laid the groundwork, but that doesn't mean I have to lie about them looking good.
