>>9866132We can all agree that her suddenly being OP when needed in MK11, and her killing Hanzo was an odd choice. It would’ve been much better to have Noob Saibot kill Hanzo, as a sort of ironic circle, since, when Hanzo was Scorpion, he killed Bi-Han, and vice versa. But instead Hanzo is just stabbed once and D’Vorah’s like “Oh, I, uh, they’re all laced with poison now, suddenly!” Then she literally scurries off like a cockroach and isn’t seen for the rest of the game. Plus, Noob Saibot wasn’t really used much in the story mode. It would’ve had more meaning if he had killed Hanzo, but with Scorpion still had his eyes opened after Hanzo’s little speech, and seeing the circular cycle his current path might lead him down.
I will say though, I thought D,Vorah was okay in MKX, she only really because too much of a problem with some of her usage in MK11’s story mode. Her concept is neat, with her being a bug lady who’s technically like a bug hive. Her design in MKX was okay too, then they doubled down too much in the “bug” stuff with some of her MK11 outfits, I feel. But it was sort of silly how Mileena didn’t try to, you know, bite part of her face off with that “kiss of death” scene. That could’ve opened up some sort of unique look, where the hypothetical bite doesn’t kill D’Vorah, but leaves part of her face like a mass of slithering and skittering insects as they try to “heal” her damaged face, or something. Or maybe, like, you know how when you pick up a fallen tree limb, and sometimes it just falls apart and all sorts of bugs suddenly crawl out? If shen Mileena went to go bite her face during the kiss, something like that happened, but then the bugs started to eat Mileena’s face and stuff, and the the bugs fly/crawl back into D’Vorah and “heal” her face from the sustenance they just got from Mileena, like when wasps or bees spit up that gunk they use to make their hives with. Or something.
