A personal criticism of the legacy games is that they provided very little information on the characters. VFCR could provide fully voiced autobiographies that we can archive.

It’s nice to learn about characters organically through story interactions but it can also be direct. It’s nice to hear a character describe themselves in their own words and personality.

It’d be nice to see these for important NPCs as well.

I’ve played Tekken since 1995. Tekken never knew it would last 30+ years. What can VF do now since it is essentially creating a new story to have greater success and more reach than its closest rival.

Should VF look at the missteps of the Tekken and Street Fighter franchise to tell a story that is more rewarding to its dedicated fans?

If you’re going to commit to twenty years of narrative have a plan.

VF should not repeat the mistakes of its peers.

Long-form storytelling is not a perfected practice and rarely done well in gaming.

None of the big 3 have a clue what they are doing. They just make shit up and abandon it.

Fighting game narrative continuity is one of the less utilized aspects of fighting games. These stories started 30+ years ago and have more narrative continuity than most AAA titles.

Mortal Kombat is leading the pack on exploiting this under utilized intrinsic quality of the genre. How could fighters other than the big 3 use this knowledge to their advantage?

Jade and Kitana have the most satisfying character arcs in the film. I love that her friendship trumped duty. Jade’s a hero. She’s my favorite character in this movie and the ultimate linchpin to Shao Kahn’s destruction.
