I'll just call her Spider-Woman. Not Q-Bee? Wait, wrong fighting franchise. Her attacks with the legs sticking out reminds me of a spider, and nothing (from the video, at least) suggests anything bee or wasp-like, IMHO. Then again, it's just me.

Well Cassie looks like an improvement over previous attempts by NRS to make female faces.

Well Devorah would be Hebrew for "bee" so it's sorta like the Bo' Rai Cho/borracho thing Sorta And don't forget Malvado and Mavado... they must have taken 10 seconds to come up with that one. Not Q-Bee? Wait, wrong fighting franchise. Her attacks with the legs sticking out reminds me of a spider, and nothing (from the video, at least) suggests anything bee or wasp-like, IMHO. Then again, it's just me. she flies in on wings has bees flying around her and what looked like a wasp larva in her hands.

According to the video, the game's story starts immediately after Mortal Kombat 9 and lasts 25 years! Some characters are seen getting older, and new characters come in (like Cassie Cage, the daughter of Johnny and Sonya with moves taken from both characters). And the main boss character will be someone that we won't be expecting.

Raiden is kinda believable
He made it pretty obvious in previous games he was getting sick and tired of dealing with everybody's bullshit. Could well be

Someone suggested it might be Raiden. Yeah, that would seem the most likely candidate for an "unexpected" bad guy as he has been made evil in the past. Could also be a saving throw regarding how bloody incompetent he was in the story in 9. Hated him in the previous game? Well now you get to kick his arse! God of useless...

Raiden going all pissed off god would be an interesting final boss.
Either him or evil Liu Kang back from the dead.

Y'know the obvious but unexpected final boss would and should be a significantly more powerful Quan Chi with Scorpion taking him down. This is the main plot resolution I want to see over the whole course of mortal kombats story and if it takes Scorps 25 years to do it then it is even more satisfying. Noob Saibot better return I need to make a few more wishes

Raiden is back, with plenty of new tricks.
NSFW
I have to say I really like the idea of alternate styles. It's like an improved version of the styles mechanic from Deadly Alliance, where this time your style does more than affect what kind of kombos you can use.

I love these matchup-specific fight intros. "Thunder blots out the sun!" " Temporarily." Edit: Also, Raiden tossing the opponent to himself is just Mortal Kombat has come a long way in terms of animation quality.

Has there been any word on whether you get to switch during the fight or you'll have to choose beforehand? If it's the switch, I'm down for that. If it's the pre-match choice... heh, never been a fan of that mechanic. Why not allow the player to use all the moves if they're here anyway?

Storm Lord Raiden looks like he's gonna be a pain in the ass to fight against.

I remember demo footage of Cassie Cage where you chose a style from the character select screen.

Unless he's facing someone with a slow projectile like Cage, he's not the kinda guy that is able to win in a projectile war.
