@@hayleywaalen2612 Considering Liu's heritage it's probably a Feng Huang. Which, is... A phoenix! But where the Phoenix is just sort of a random critter in the Big Grecian Book of Cool Critters, the Feng Huang is an auspicious symbol of harmony and the king of all birds. Honestly I never thought the dragon suited him. This is a better fit for his overall mentality, and fits really well with his 'rebirth' as a god.
Sometimes it’s hard to see Reptile as a character with his own lore, story, and plot relevance when for fatalities and in this case animalities he just gets turned into a punching bag.
I love how they capture all the real details and nuances of the animals these people represent. From the praying mantis holding it's prey between their forelegs while it chews threw them, to the bald eagle performing a high-five before firing a full clip from two submachine guns into their foe and dropping a grenade on them, each animal is represented in it's full, natural glory!
Pandas are cute til they hurt you like crazy! There is also a callback/Easter egg where it reminded me of playing The Legend of Zelda; Twilight Princess. Anyone remember it?
Am I the only one who feel like a few of the outworders shoud have a few changes in their animaities? I mean look at General Shao, Li Mei, Tanya and Reiko. They were given animals that I come from Earth's fauna. Wouldn't it feel like better to introduce some of the Outworld's fauna? When you look at Kitana's giant Hummingbird, Mileena's giant Orchid Praying Mantis, Syzoth Giant Carnivorous Plant, Syndel's Giant Spider, Ermac's Locusts, Rain's Pufferfish and Shang Tsung's Cobra, they all have something somewhat unnatural to our fauna at least that makes it like you could find those animals in Outworld/Edenia.
I can't stand the way they changed the way the announcer announces. It's suppose to be "Scorpion wins! Animality!" Not "Animality! Scorpion wins" like how do you fuck that up?!
I have soooo many questions but ill stick with 3 1 why animals 2 why is reptile a plant and not a reptile of some sort 3 why tf is cyrax a chick now!?!?
It's so easy to imagine Peacemaker finishing a story, all proud "So that's how I won that fight." "By turning into an eagle." "Don't forget the lens flare. It's symbolic." "Right. Okay. So, we found you hopped up on enough PCP to kill an elephant, slow dancing with your pet eagle and singing a heavy metal remix of 'Just The Two Of Us'. Is there any chance at all you may have imagined this 'Animality' thing?" "Okay so there was some PCP but that definitely happened AFTER I turned into an eagle. Ask the other fighters, they ALL have these things, mine is just the best one."
A bald eagle with guns. Peacemaker couldn’t be more Murican unless the eagley slapped him with a report that his tests came back normal and a $200k out of network medical bill. So is it a Muricanality? Ashram as a fire breathing sword horse was really unexpected and fun
