@@kahlif990 still stupid and not as good as the MK9 reboot. He's a descendent of Greek Gods in that with super powers. Here he has no special powers including his glowing green orbs. In fact other than his JCVD skin he's kind of whack looking. Really small and short. That's not Johnny Cage
I have to disagree. I grew up on Mortal Kombat and it always pissed me off that they completely replaced him with another actor because it was obvious that wasn't the real Johnny Cage from MK Classic. All because Midway was butthurt Daniel Pesina was making money somewhere else. He sticks out like a sore thumb and I hate it.
As a child I used to have a massive (and I mean MASSIVE) crush on this fella. As I grew up my family would tease me about my infatuation with him. I, of course, was embarrassed by this and I would deny ever having an interest in him in the first place. Looking at him now years later I completely understand what eight year old me saw in him. Man is fineee!
While it may be the most entertaining to look at, it’s probably one of the least practical. Dude is dancing in the middle of a fight. At least it fits his character. I’ve always disliked MKs fighting stances so I’m glad that they fixed the drunken sway in MK1
@@Bleach_Drinker_7 lol. taking about practicality in a fighting games where you can punch someones head off, we have people with lighting powers, 4 arms warriors, gods, time travel.
@@edwardgaines6561 Oh, yeah, because he supposed to be a brat to be interesting, right? Daniel Pesina's portrayal of Johnny has much more character balance because he is a Hollywood star second and a martial artist first. He is fighting first, with some cheese being thrown here and there. Chris Alexander really lost this effect in his sprite because there's nothing o both sides, and in NRS era he is just a clown rather than a fighter. Well, it's not that extreme, and I like Johnny in MK1, but with this mindset intact with Johnny being the actor first the character never gonna grow into something bigger
Depends on what Era of JCVD you are talking about. Personally the original MK Johnny looks somewhat like JCVD in Bloodsport. People complaining that JCVD in MK1 doesn't look like himself but he does, just a younger version.
Mk11 has amazing animations...shame they made the game a grindfest...especially the brutalities & intros/outros were a pain to get but beautiful to look at...they really made you work for it.
Mk11 has dogshit animations what drugs are you on It has pretty character models but objectively the worst animations in fighting games period (this is literally a whole franchise problem)
MKX and 11 truly have the best representations of Cage in the franchise. He didn’t have much to go by in the earlier games and seeing him in a position of authority and fatherhood is one of the greatest pivots in gaming.
I like when the stances change. The changes in design and animation is one of my favorite qualities of MK overall. And i wish so much that the jp fg companies liked to work like that... but they dont have that creative drive. They prefer to keep things the same for laziness disguised under an excuse of "respecting the legacy".
I love MK1 Johnny the most, solely because when he’s in his stance, he’s not doing some fucking dance I seriously doubt actual martial artists and fighters are doing those types of movements
@@vkblue3409 hence why it should have been called MK12. Despite trying to act like a fresh start, I really wouldn’t recommend the game to new players as you need a lot of context from previous games
@@ottooctavius9552 tbh unless you're short on money, why would u only have one mk? Especially the newest one? It's obvious that one would be confuses nonetheless if they just picked up a game with barley any context of the previous games, even if the title was mk12 it would be the player's fault for buying it.

I’ve watched a lot of these vids and I’m convinced MK1 (12) is when everyone learned you don’t need to keep your body moving to be a fighter. Everyone stays still!
Johnny in all games: really cool fighting stances

One single word can make plenty of devastation.
