Speaking of politics though, figured may as well bring up the elephant in the room sooner or later, but how did you all feel about some of the shoehorned stuff in MK11? You know, like Jax's arcade ending, etc. At least Nightwolf's ending wasn't too blantantly on the nose in comparison, and he's one of the few MK characters who actually is defined by their race. Still though... The agenda pushing of any media outlet has always rubbed me the wrong way... There are countless examples, so there's no need to start listing them, but MK9 was the last real look at a political agenda game that we saw, I think. MKX came along and suddenly all the women have less revealing outfits and smaller tits. As if suddenly everyone on the planet became offended by women with revealing clothing and big breasts. And of course they had to make Kung Jin gay because if there isn't a gay character in there then we're discriminating against them. And now in MK11 with Jax's ending... It's just never-ending and I can't stand the direction the world has headed in the past decade or so and is continuing to head in.

This ridiculous idea that only the minorites can be offended now is dumb as hell. Really when it comes down to it for me personally, though... I don't really get offended by anything. People can say whatever they want about me and whether it is true or not, I don't care. People will say what they'll say and I don't give a shit. I understand and accept that other people WILL be offended by certain things, however, and that's perfectly acceptable. But that does NOT mean that everyone else should be forced to give a shit about it, though, and be crucified for not giving a shit about it.
