Not only does the new Mortal Kombat X video game have a gay character, they have a cut scene where he worries the other fighters won't accept his sexuality

Because even the developers of a fighting game infamous for its brutality and gory "fatalities" believe in acceptance.

Quote:

“I can’t… they won’t accept,” Kung Jin says.
“They care only of what is in your heart, not whom your heart desires,” Raiden replies.

*The developers have already confirmed that the character in question is gay

... hara kiri

I feel raped

why?? WHY?? Maybe in depression quest or something..
Ontario is trying to normalize it by teaching kids in school, officially.. This is the most insidious way of doing it. Sneaking it inside a game kids are gonna eat up.

Especially if this character is a sick fighter with great fatalities.

fuark man... they've really crossed a line this time. They're pissing on my childhood

First they reduce the breast size of the female fighters and now this? Fuck this game.

[Eddie Winslow]

Too bad the gay character isn't from the Netherealm. If he was a bad guy that would be fuckin' hilarious

I wonder how Gamergate will react to this

[speakeasy]

What's his special move? Throwing a shit-covered condom?

[godfather dust]

Almost every fighting game has one character that is too strong. Wouldn't be surprised if it's the faggot in this one. Avoid doing fatalities on him, you might get AIDS.

[Dr. Howard]

I can't wait for new finishing moves like "gay pride parade!!!" or "Vote Democrat!"

[philosophical_recovery]

They should just change the name:

Cornhole Combat: Dubai Deuce Exxxtreme Tolerance

Parental trigger rating NFG-17
Not Fully Gay. Contains some cis gendered white male characters. Feminazi discretion is advised.

It's not necessarily a bad thing. In fighting games there are two types of characters - the ones I like to play as and the ones I like to beat up. A gay character would rank very high in my - "want to beat up" scale. It could be fun if he is not overpowered. But if he is OP then it would suck.

Actually in the very first Mortal Kombat game the only female character Sonya is OP and is considered the strongest against hardcore players. I pretty much lost my appetite for the series when I learned this. While I do like some sexy ladies in fighting games - I prefer the best fighters to be masculine.

Then again I haven't played a fighting game for at least five years so I don't care that much.

Philosophically speaking - what is in your heart and what your heart desires is pretty much the same thing trough. A wicked heart desires wicked things and righteous heart desires righteous things. So I am upset about them making Raiden say such stupid things. Raiden was my favorite character.

[Yatagan]

As far as fighting games are concerned, I'll be sticking with Tekken..



And Dead or Alive.

[Kabal]

To inspire dialogue and create awareness amongst the gamer community in this very important societal issue, there better be long cut-scenes where:

Cyrax and Sektor struggle with their internal programming, wondering if they kan overkome their artificial intelligence--which was designed in a past era insufficiently aware of gays--to welcome the sexuality of their new komrade. Furthermore, if sexuality is but the manifestation of self-identifikation, what are the implikations of this in the existentialism of cyborgs?

Shao Kahn, Liu Kang, and Motaro wonder if their revealing outfits would be konsidered sexually enticing by a gay kombatant, before self-flagellating for this homophobik line of inkuiry. Why treat a gay kombatant any differently than a straight one? Motaro ponders the intersektion between kross-species differences and sexuality differences, and how this kould affect power struktures and diskourse akross and between Realms.

Mileena and Kitana oscillate between looking forward to reaching out and welkoming a gay kolleague with open arms, to kuestioning if this kind of behavior would but kontinue the legacy of cis-hetero females viewing gay males in a stereotypikal light, a form of mikroaggression and emblematik of their privilege as cis-heterosexuals.

Kabal konsiders if he should trade in his hook swords for (a) weapon(s) less phallik-looking, in kase the new kombatant interprets them as a form of mokkery. Or would the new kombatant be more offended if he learned that Kabal switched weapons on akkount of his sexuality? Kabal inkuires to himself if fearing to be perceived as a homophobe is in itself indikative of homophobia. Similarly, Scorpion debates if he should change his katchphrase of "kome here!" lest it be received as a kome-on.

Gamers will love this stuff!

[kaotic]

They probably made the game where you can't finish him because that would be rape.

My god even video games are becoming bullshit, I'm glad I stopped playing them long ago.

His fatality is banging your character bareback and giving them HIV.

Kung Jin's backstory is that he was orginally Sonya Blade's hairstylist in Outworld.

The other change they've made is that Scorpion's "Kunai" is a dildoh everytime he uses his famous spear attack against fight Kung. And it goes in his mouth instead of chest.

Too easy to make fun of. Fuck MK, this isn't about acceptance, it's indoctrination. I'll stick to Tekken and Street Fighter.

Edit Godfather beat me to the AIDS joke.

[Fortis]

I feel bad Raiden's voice actor.

[El Chinito loco]

One of the special moves is that a parade of young boys will come out in choir garb. There's no fighting. Just young boys on screen.

[Soothesayer]

Looks like they're headed down the same road as Bioware. Before Bioware went full homo mode, they actually had some fantastic games. Planescape. Baldur's Gate. But as soon as they began to embrace evil, their stories went to shit. Doesn't help that in Mass Effect 3 you can't SKIP the fag scenes. So I wander over to the official forums. I was shocked at how depraved the mods are. They really don't give two shits about you even if you happen to work there (unless you're family, but if you're conservative I'd bet you wouldn't last long).

A lot of their best writers and programmers left for Obsidian and/or became independent. What you have left in Bioware aside from the technical guys are faggot upper management who became "writers" and "creators" ie. David Gaider. This is why they keep plugging away at the gay agenda because the head staff is a SJW and fag. I didn't know about any of this until I played dragon age 3 and read up on it because the game sucked so much.

[Class-8]

Add Soul Calibur to that list, Seboist. I love the fast paced action of that game.





One thing the makers of Mortal Kombat do not realize is there is competition, a rival waiting to take their spot.

[BortimusPrime]

Well I'll toss my joke in:

His finishing move is that he finishes on you.

[Comte De St. Germain]

Completely out of context as I was just playing the story mode. It was because he's a thief who broke into Raiden's temple, and his occupation was that of a thief before he fought for good. He frees a thief from being executed by Kotal Kahn and talks about how Raiden gave him a second chance when he broke into the temple to steal his family heirloom and cousin's memento back from his cousin Kung Lao's tomb. This video was troll bait and complete bullshit.

Edit: this entire scene is a flashback to how he joined up in the current story and how he's related.

[Comte De St. Germain]

Also for the record this is the best Mortal Kombat to date.

[Fortis]

^ I loved the MK before this one. I used to play Raiden. He's probably the biggest troll character in the game. Dat teleport bait into corner carry combo. Deliceux. Are you saying it is the best one gameplay wise or storywise? THe MK games have had deceptively good stories for a while.

Wait, are you saying that this character isn't gay? I'm confused.

Best gameplay and story I've seen in a game for a long time. They kill off a bunch of characters(if you are interested I can spoil the story a bit and give names), but this paves the way for some interesting or shit development in the next game. I'm actually a bit pissed off they killed off one of my favorite villains though right when they got development.
