And, it's not about the petition, it's about what the fans want, and Ed Boon cares about what the fans want (cg, my penultimate post). That's still kinda offensive even if you didn't intend any. If it weren't about the petition then why would you bring it up on this place? Petitions hardly work because they don't garner enough attention from anything but a slim majority of the fans of a series.

And even then, it's just a slim amount out of the vast amounts of fans, other characters have merited a fan status yet no petitions were made for them, why would a petition for a single character work when Ed Boon's already mentioned the characters have already been decided? Changing something at last minute tends to break the development cycle of a game, unless he were released as DLC which I doubt would happen.

I'm fully aware of some petitions being successful such as the Dark Souls 2 PC port, but that was even mentioned by the developers themselves if enough support garnered the attention and demand for a PC port, it'd be made which it was.

I also like how you used one Tweet as a way of using it to back up the unlikely success of the petition, Ed's made Tweets like that before in response to a character demand but never actually made anything based off of it, he does it to take the piss. Well then, I apologize for that, if it is thought offensive, I'm highly ashamed to offend anyone. If I brang this topic to the light, it is simply because I wanted to share what was happening at the moment, and it was my only goal, I shared the link to the petition in case anyone is interested in it.

Oh, I didn't know that the characters were already chosen, I came a bit late, I guess. Though, I'll take the MK9 example again, where Rain and Kenshi were added last, and yes, as DLC, like you said. But what about the chance of him being in the Kombat Pack, after all? That could work out well, wouldn't it?

I was using this tweet as a probability, and it isn't because someone doubts that something will happen that it will not happen. Because life would be pretty easy, actually. [insert random catastrophy]

And, even if it doesn't happen, and that this tweet is made to piss off some fans, well okay, I personally find it pretty fun, at least, some people will have tried, that's still a good thing to share, ain't it?

Anyway, sorry again about the inconvenience of my last post, and have a nice day.
