Yeah, for sure. I bought the standard for 60 and there are no regrets for me. Loved the first game and I loved MKX before the whole PC issues.

Gonna be passing on the ultimate edition myself sadly. A bit too expensive here and not sure I'll stick with the game outside the story mode and some casual play. Interested to see who will be added though. Might jump if/when Manta joins and he looks fun though.

One thing I hate about how Superman is depicted in Injustice is that they never show any growth to his fighting skills, You'd think a guy that's been fighting Batman for years would train more in basic fighting techniques yet they always have him as just this Brawler style.
To quote Wolfgang Krauser- "I saw that little fight you had, you are good.. but could improve. Your technique is sloppy, and had you used your legs.. you would have been more effective."
Every time in the comic when they Put Superman on the same level as his Opponent he got his ass handed to him, Every time. Is Supes really just his powers and nothing more? A De-powered Superman should be able to still kick the shit out of anyone cause he has his training to fall back on.
When Superman throws his mighty Garbage can lid!

The lighting and use of colors in this game...so good!
That's one of my favorite stages. I love the colors so much. Mainly because I love purple.
Dr. Fate, too. Expect a lot of whining about those two in the first couple weeks.

Alright, I made a tweet about my concern with Injustice 2 subtitles so I would appreciate if someone could help me out and spread the words if y'all could.

Facial animations in this game are great. Especially for a fighter.

Strange that they drag it out so much. The game is actually good.

As a casual player of fighting games, what should I do to actually get good? I'm feeling that itch with this game, but I'm tired of getting stomped online.
Learn frame data and how to read it, it starts to fall together when you do that. You understand how to punish, what can be punished, what's safe/unsafe, so on.
I feel that new characters have a pretty good animations, but the old one that didnt change from inj1 have some pretty wanky animations.
Wouldnt surprise me if they started fixing some moves after the feedback, they did something similar in mkx.
I played other fighter too (hundred of hours in sf5) and man that game fanbase have serious anger management issues and can't handle the salt.

I would say keep playing. Play with people better than you or similar level, and talk to them about your matches if possible. You were doing this well, you were doing this a lot and this is how I got around it, this doesn't seem great against this character, ect. ect. Talking about your matches can help a lot. Playing consistently is a major help in getting better.
Learn your character moves, learn which ones are actually good, which ones are ok, which ones are bad but might be good if you never use it and suddenly surprise someone with it. At some point it really does click, you just just gotta push through the losses to do it.
As for the frame data suggestion I would recommend that if you are the type of person who can equate the numbers in framedata with the moves themselves. If not its a crapshoot to try and remember what moves are good against what based on numbers.

Still think he might be a Premier Skin for Black Adam, but yeah that's not a subtle hint.
I don't, I feel the animations haven't really improved much at all. So no I think it should be talked about. Injustice deserves the praise for the content and I'm looking forward to playing it but also deserves the criticism but you can't honestly say that sfv fanbase can't take criticism and than say that nrs shouldn't have any criticism.
It's not as daunting as it looks. Let's say you're fighting an opponent and they hit you with a normal that's -9, if you know what your 8 frame or less moves are then you know how to punish it. It's all math and remembering numbers.

Honestly, just introduce the MK cast as part of the real DC Universe and have a big Mortal Kombat Tournament arc where they have to save Earthrealm and stuff as their next major event. Unite the franchises and let's get it over with

Though Mortal Kombat is owned by WB and got comics under the DC Comics label even.
So them as guests is even more obvious now.
Any bets on how long it'll take for them to get shuffled into the main DC universe? With the Watchmen getting brought to the DCU as we speak I figure it's only a matter of time.
I have been campaigning for DC to put the Lin Kuei into DC as rivals to the LoA forever now.
An MK vs DC game, if you will.
I know its not as good as sf5. But every time an nrs game get discussed its always get derailed and ruined l by "lol still bad animations". At least as someone mentioned it used to be "lol faces and animations".

Yeah I fired up Injustice one a few weeks ago and I agree that some of the characters from the previous game kept some of jank. Hopefully they can go back and smooth some of them out. Other than that the game is great.
I'm really interested to see how the DLC fighters turn out.
About 21 hours from now.
Ditto, but Max says embargo is 9pm PST monday so
Damn I'm jealous of those among you who already have the game and can play it from tomorrow onwards. But I guess I'll just have to absorb all of the info given out over the next few days and keep the hype going till Friday.

could never
More people I know have the game now...
Appreciate that, I do my best with my physical limitations. VERY excited to learn IJ and make some dank online vids once I understand the mechanics.
Yeah she's more than likely my first premium skin buy too!

Same. Easily the most appealing premier skin for me, while Cheetah's my most unwanted character in the entire game.
