    To be fair they did that a lot. I think the only rumor we didn't have fulfilled was Hornbuckle. The MK team absolutely used the rumors, and stupid gags. Like, Rain...is a purple Prince. Purple rain, the prince. Wild.

    I like to think Ermac's MKX ending is canon, and Shang Tsung took control of the vessel and reincarnated himself by absorbing the souls within. The Shang Tsung we see in the Aftermath expansion is actually present day Shang who got trapped in the void when Kronika arrived. This is why he was an old man when we first see him. Shang was probably plotting in the shadows between the events of MKX and MK11.

    Ermac was not in 11 because maybe his tower ending was true, somehow the soul of Shang Tsung was gone inside Ermac in MKX and being the most powerful soul he freed himself and "sucking" the souls from an already week and decaying Ermac, he came back to life...that's why Tsung is in MK11 but not Ermac....I guess.

    I don’t really that Jerrod wads up being in control of Ermac in the new era. I like it a lot better with there not being any one individual taking precedence over the others within Ermac. I also don’t really like his face in that game either. But he’s still one of my favorite character’s regardless.

    I don't so much care about the face thing -playable Ermac seems to be getting the traditional MK ninja mask anyway- but otherwise I agree 100%. 'Collection of souls' Ermac is a lot cooler than just 'Jerrod'. The way he talks in the trailer (when Reptile says 'you've changed', Ermac responds 'we believe for the better') makes me think he's not going to be Jerrod, though.

  • @wickdaline8668
    @wickdaline86683 ай бұрын

    Since Jerrod's soul is inside Ermac, does anyone think Travis Willingham could have voiced Jerrod? Not his actual VA in the game, but he did voice Old Raiden in Liu Kang's chapter and sounds alike. Maybe next game? I say, why not?

    Did anyone else think his turn against Mileena in MKX made no sense? Like he was made by Shao Kan to fill out his commands and wishes which would have included having Mileena become the new Kan. Plus how did Reptile and Ermac not know Mileena was created in the fleshpits? It's not like Kitana had a sister that they just happened to never meet in the years they worked for Shao Kan, and in MK9 Shao Kan was pretty open about Shang tsung creating her.

    I gotta say, not to be negative but i really miss your old style of narrating, I used to love relaxing on a night to your video's but the past year youve tried to add these dynamics to your voice that makes a little more jarring and hard to chill to. Its like youre jumping into the mic at the start of every sentence then slowly pulling away where as it used to be a nice even volume. again sorry to be negative still love the content!

    I think its probably a bi-product of doing commentary on the side, the crossover has definitely bled over to the KZread side of things I feel, Ill defintely take this in mind though as it has been rather hard on my voice recently so dialling things down might be a good idea in hindsight

Mk1, 2 and ultimate 3 are my personal top 3 MK's. I've always been a massive fan of the franchise but I just can't seem to get into the recent titles atall. Must be finally getting old.
