That "Be Han" line really shows you what kind of guy Ed Boon is
Zairy is Me it’s Bi Han dumbshit
MK BG RUDE.
@@richardhimself150 fuck off bitch, i know who the fuck Bi Han is doesn't matter if i write B Han its still sound the same isn't it, ya dumbfuck
@@HaVeNII7 Rudeness begets Rudeness
MK BG Hey watch the video ya sack of pus.
Ed Boon is one of the coolest dudes alive & I’m SUPER excited about him being in talks with Marvel
I want Boon to bring back Chess Kombat
Hell yeah
Kombat chess was boon?! I played that as a kid. I might be thinking of a different game maybe.
and motor kombat
Motor kombat wad the shit, i liked chess kombat though.
Anyone remember the tetris kombat thing? Lmao
Ed please HD shaolin monks!!!!!!!
@@luischavez2088 u mean puzzle kombat
Neo almost in Injustice 2...
I'll settle for John Wick in MK11!
Hell yeah John Wick i'm down for.
That would actually be really fucking cool.
He'd have some bad ass moves.
This wasnt the comment i was expecting, but its definitely the comment i needed. This shit needs to happen. (also has his dog join in fatalities and fatal blows)
Yeah. Nah
Yr
Ed has to be one of the realest people out there! Props to you Ed and NRS, I'm definitely looking forward to MK11!!
Same
You can just tell this man loves everything he does and is so damn nice.
I remember cracking up laughing at Quan chi's mk5 fataliy
Decapitation is very common in the MK series, how was Quan Chi so bad he turned them into a giraffe?!
@Starscream91 8:42
What an awesome and dedicated man. Thank you for all my childhood memories involving Mortal Kombat.
Outstanding dude, right next to Cory Barlog
He actually said he would love to make an HD Shaolin monks. That made me happy.
How could you all not ask him about a horror movie monster fighting game!?
he says he made enough.
They would lose more money than gaining
AgentFrenchFry they ask him in this interview.... idiot.
Ed Boon: "Liu Kang has been the main character since MK1."
Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance:
And Deception. And Armageddon. And X.
@@AwesomeNinjaXD and Special Forces and Mythologies
Liu kang is the real main character in mortal Kombat series.
@@kamokharun3195 at least in the main one
Outworld is the realm you're missing Ed, c'mon that's easy stuff 😂
He also missed the shadow realm
U mean k’mon
did he said ChaosRealm?
TheBadWolf he did
He also forgot the Drug realm.
If you dont love Ed Boon, you got no heart. It must have been ripped off during a fatality...
I will never like a guy who thinks censoring females and giving all of them breast reduction is a good thing
Jeez are you a fuckin' virgin?
Sapphire Jack He wanted his game to be taken more seriously. I miss the old costumes, but there’s still sex appeal with the alt ones.
@@GabrielFatality
You support FORCING females to wear burkas? (Scarlet)
What the Fvck is wrong with you?!?!?!?
@@ChromaticEagle
the original costumes are the ones that most people will see and alt costumes won´t fix the fact that most of them are made as flat as possible without being too obvious
I just hope the story mode won´t be SJW trash where the men are worthless and the females need to save the day from the evil bad guy who is of course a WHITE MALE
it used to be one of my fave game franchises, now I can´t stop cringing at what it has become :(
Ed boon: Liu kang is the main character
Scorpion: am i a joke to you
Edit: 630 likes?! Thank you guys 👍❤
He is the face of mk but liu kang is thr main character
@The savage Of Savages true man🍷
@The Rock Just Layed The Smackdown On Your Candy Azz Boon actually hates Liu Lang but the fans love him
Scorpion has like zero plot relevance for the most part
At a time it was going to be shingiko
At the time of mk6
Ed Boone, respect buddy. Great interview. I've played all the MK from the original in arcades to the SNES and genesis. MK11 is my all time favorite
Liu Kang for final chapter konfirmed
Edit:thanks for the likes
Yheaaa
hopefully not, im sick of him. hes so boring
Aye
@@bobbob-ke7zo last chapter Taven!!!!
@@Jijodebuta lol, that would be quite the twist.
I want another Shaolin Monks, Ed!
Seconded
Yes!!! Was great, I remember writing down the fatality Kombos and keeping them in my game kase to use. I got some from G4
God me too
Please
Yes please. Been asking for years xD
"It's about redemption - I randomly picked that word".
Heh.
Dutch confirmed for mk 11
Lennnnnyyyyyyyyyy
"i would rather save you"
Ed Boon is lowkey the Ryan Reynolds of game developers
Ed Boon is such an awesome guy
Man, i'm really looking forward for that Marvel vs DC game or just a Marvel Fighting game by Netherrealm
It will never happen. Disney would be the 1st.
Yshaun0fBleeZ potGAWD capcom already did
Injustice only happened because NRS is owned by Dc's parent company, a marvel X mortal kombat crossover would be pretty kick ass though
Marvel vs dc game will prolly never happen, but a marvel only fighting game developed by nrs is clearly a possibility goin off what ed said
What if they made a Marvel, DC, Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter crossover game and everybody can be happy.🙂
Are loot boxes going to be in Mortal Kombat 11?
No
Thank you hahahaha
its NRS, not EA
IT Factor but there is easy fatalities and I’m sure skins are paywalled like always
Except MK Mobile.
@@Elysiabikha I mean if you're going to buy easy fatalities that's just dumb on your part, as for other costumes and stuff, depending on the price, it's usually worth it since it's not just color swaps and it takes time to create them.
@@tankata2 Injustice 2 had lootboxes that were changed later and i think can no longer be bought with real money.
Holy shit! They mentioned Motor Kombat!
Not by name, but still. REALLY miss that, from MK Armageddon. It was the perfect diversion when you were starting to get burned out with the fighting aspect of the game.
Very glad to hear it hasn't been forgotten, and Boon still wants to do something with it.
_Everyone wants to Bi-Han_ :)
OH. MY. GOD!!!
can you explain that part to me? I didnt quite get that joke
@@FireDramine7 He's referring to a popular character named Han Solo from Star Wars. He's pretty much a bad ass, so everyone wants to "Be Han". Does this help? :)
@@That_One_User_314 I figured he referenced han solo but I didnt get whats funny about that when he says everyone wants to be han. Is there some hidden word joke or something?
@@FireDramine7 Well, I didn't find it funny just mind blowing because no one connected the dots the first time nor made the reference.
@@That_One_User_314 I got it now, noob saibot's called Bi-Han. I didnt know that. Not a big Mortal Kombat freak, only know it exists and watched some gameplay over the years knowing the classics like Sub and Scorpion
-what would you tell your younger self?
-don't spend so much time working
-issues 100 hour work weeks for employees
@Ayanna Little yet some studios such as Insomniac Games deliver some awesome, huge, AAA games without crunching. More than 40-42 a week is not healthy, more than 50 is just shitty and toxic. People can't even have a life.
You do know he probably has no control over that, right? WB calls those shots.
@@stef04895 when did insomniac create a good game lol
One of the best gaming/game specific interviews I've ever watched. Relevant questions, historic inquires, goofs, and more --- this is a fantastic piece of gaming journalism. Thanks for sharing!
Jeremiah Wilhelm I feel like he adds humour and the less serious shit to break down eds walls and get better information and try and make him want to share or forget
great interview
Ben, I love that you slipped the greatest work of all time question in there. As many interviews as you can slip that into, I'm here for that. Keep up the great work!
Archer452 Wait, is that an inside joke?This is the first time I’ve seen this channel can you explain please, I want to laugh about it as well😂
@@johnfakester5527 It's from their podcast, The Game Informer Show.
Even though it won’t happen, it gives me a big smile that he actually talked to marvel about a fighting game
Mk11 Producer: "Do you want the game to be based on the past? Or the future?"
Ed Boon: *yes..*
edit: HOLY CRAP!?!?? 800+ LIKES?!?!?! THANK YOU SO MUCH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
King Vegeta: Friggin Smartass!
Joynel Bonet Delgado *blasts him*
ConamoSquidGAMING that is something he would say
Stfu
Pretty sure Ed ain't the one that thought of it.
2:38 “Just Raiden”
Geras: i aM iMmOrtAl
But geras is not invisible like Raiden. Raiden is basically superman but an mk god
Difficulties Geras wouldn’t permanently die from a bullet to the head, but he could still potentially be killed by one. Raider would probably flinch at best.
Nobody gonna reference Adema?
@@_runta It's spelled invincible not invisible LoL.
@@_runta "superman but a god"
Unless by god you mean Zeus lightning zap-zap, then Superman is already a god
