I'm just disappointed that Shaggy got rejected.
May have been for the best though. Guy is so OP.

The MK fan in me is so glad to see Johnny fully embracing the Hollywood aspect of his character.
The fighting game fan in me is happy to see that he finally has a string that has a low starter, and also one with good range. It was my main issue with him in MK9.

Johnny looks like he was modeled after Jeremy Rener.

I'd rather not have Shaggy.
Don't waste resources on a Meme that will most likely be long dead by the time this game comes out.

Okay, saw it during the latest Kombat Kast and Johnny's fatality is probably the best comedy fatality they've ever had.

From how they're saying that Cage is gonna be less execution-heavy, it makes me think it'll be like his MK9 variation. No issues here.

There's so many lovely touches in the Johnny Cage, especially the triple decapitation callback.
Just got the mobile game update, I'm very glad they're not replacing it with a new game with Injustice 2 style play, both because I prefer the MK existing system, and so I don't lose all my progress. Indeed, quite the inverse, it seems like having played for a while has paid off more with how many characters they've upgraded to Diamond cards. MKX was always one of the most fair-seeming free mobile games, with it very easy to upgrade characters without being too reliant on microtransactions - though I have thrown them a few purchases because I enjoyed myself so much - so I hope that keeps up. Only negative is that with the graphical updates, there's a fair amount more lag on my Galaxy S7.

Oh my God, he has a Ninja Mime move.
OH MY GOD, HE HAS AN ACTUAL STUNT DOUBLE!
Netherrealm, you just keep making me see why Johnny is my favourite character in the series.

My brother came down the day was released and said... "I don't give a damn about Mortal Kombat any more but that Johnny Cage reveal is the funniest thing I've seen in a while." So... I guess glowing criticism from my brother There's so many lovely touches in the Johnny Cage, especially the triple decapitation callback. Yeah, that was the first thing I noticed with the fatality... the triple uppercut decapatation call back. As well as all the other little callbacks like the ninja mime attack, and the sunglass toss.

I hope they incorporate his autograph toss somewhere.

I saw a comment online where someone said that the sunglasses toss should be called "Throwing Shade"

Leaked roster? {Spoiler}

I really like Johnny's redesign as well. He seems to have been slightly slimmed down but at the same time is more toned and more athletic-looking (rather than just big), which I think works a lot better for the character, especially seeing how he's a martial arts actor and uses lots of quick moves. Plus, it makes him look more like a lot of late 80's / early 90's action actors like Jean-Claude Van Damme, whom he is of course based on. I hope they incorporate his autograph toss somewhere. Make it a chip damage that can be turned into a Brutality!

Leaked roster? {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} Maaaan that's thoroughly unimpressive. Lot of the same tired faces, not really much in the way of names people were majorly wanting back - lack of Rain is a big hole - and a lot of the cuts from 10 make no sense. And also it's just plain a butt-ugly layout. About the best to hope for is that those grey squares will be unlockable characters and the gaps are where DLC goes but I highly doubt it, if only because that'd give the base game a roster of 34 characters when X with all its DLC only has 33.

One character I'm a little bit disappointed to see not make the cut is Fujin.
I honestly feel he would have made a lot of sense in this game, especially fighting a Heel Raiden trying to knock some sense into him.
I suppose he could always show up in DLC but still.
