Honestly everyone always flocks to the newest game.
Will never understand why people blame Sonic fox for what MK devs done. People have said its just not casual friendly.
1. WB Games is always nosedive since Arkham & Shadow of franchise died.
2. MK already heading to this way since MK11. Like how they tied everything on online. They even tamper the SP experience and local MP where casuals cant even enjoy it escept the story mode. Worst move they did for a fighting game.
3. Idk if Im the only one but character designs heavily toned down and uninspiring after MK10. They aim to realism a bit too much. Scorpion, subzero, the ninjas design isnt cool as past games, they look like cosplayers of themselves. Other characters also the same, nothing really standout except they isnt humanoid and its getting smaller and rarer since MK10. Major turn off to many of my friends including myself really.
4. The story also come recyling in same story. Human vs Netherrealm. Always shao khan as final boss. Liu kang the hero except MK1. They rebooting the story 3 times now. MK1-armageddon, MK9-10, MK 11 multiverse and now MK1. It just repeating exact same story with small twist. They run out of creative ideas by this point.
5. The gameplay while compared to MK prior MK9 is more competitive, but its get more complicated each release and isnt enjoyable enough compared to SF, Tekken, DoA, etc. turning off newcomers/casuals. I liked they utilize every button on controllers but its tedious compared to other fighting games that only use directional and 4 main buttons is enough to play.
6. Again, they gatekeep everything online and rely on DLC for skins that also parody of their supposed to be cooler design. You dont want to pay grind it with same characters until you get bored. Those skins look nothing compared to the OG game design looks. Also the guest fighter is talking spotlight too much compared to MK characters fans wanted. Those who dont watch Omni Man or Peacemaker dont really care about the character feel they wasted spots for more relevant characters.
So yeah this is also the 1st MK I skipped after hating how MK11 cant be really enjoyed for local multiplayer for me. So its a good call. NRS its doomed judging how WB Games clearly chasing monetizations and trend to get money as much as possible but eventually they just parody of whatever trends currently happening. Now Palworld is viral and if they survived against pokemon/nintendo. I bet WBD will make similar games and the game will die in 2 years time at the most. They also do the same in movies and series. They dont deserve their major positions in entertainment business anymore by this point.
Kameo might ruined the game
And making certain ingamr choices
As a casual fan of MK, the only thing that kept me hooked in this game was the story mode, everything else just felt disappointing to me compared to MK11 and MKX. At least those other games gave me a ton more replayability having to explore the Krypt Mode and completing challenges through the Towers of Time. Invasions seemed like a decent idea but I wasn't a fan of it, would've preferred a more fleshed out Krypt exploration mode like we got in MK11 but in a larger scale
Nothing beyond kombat league and invasions are lame.
the only problem is scorpion for me
they just drops hanzo for no reason what so ever
and the graphics they are bad and feel softer then mk11
the villans feels cute
At this point if you wanted the game you would have the game already
That being said it serves no purpose to go in and change and or fix the things the community has a problem with
What do you think Tekkan 8 will do to this game?
they tried a tag game, but Im still thinking Mk11 is better 🤷🏿♂️
this game is terrible
They need to take the mechanics back to mk9 and mkx. They arent fun to play anymore imo
i hate the kameo system, it should either be 1vs1 or 2vs2, this kameo is BS
Ed Boon said it himself, tag team mode wasn't popular in MK9 which is why they haven't revisited it.
Years later a crowd calls for it back.
They decide hmm. They want tag team team now but it wasn't popular, I bet they'll love mandatory assists, everyone wins.
(What were they thinking)
No matter how many mortal Kombat games they release mortal Kombat Armageddon was the best mk game ever!! Right beside deception and Shaolin monks. But that's just my personal opinion.
Tekken 8 that's why Lol
Towers of time in MK11 was the best part
Mortal Kombat sucks and has ALWAYS sucked. These games should not be played competativly.
Wdym this game one release sucked balls mk11 sucked but was still better
Kameos feel stale. It’s great that the DLC Kameos have so much versatility, but it’s almost too late? All Kameos should have been just as fleshed out at launch because the current assist system is boring because of how repetitive and predictable it is.
My issues with the game mainly, is the loooog delay with inputting buttons. I input the first part of the kombo and the fighter doesn't even respond to the next part of the input of the kombo when I input it correct. Sometimes they don't even do anything when I input the buttons smh. It just has a bad malfunction with button timings. Why the fighter can't react as soon as I press the button. Like how MK10 and 11 is. Its very frustrating, especially for me. It makes me feel like im just slow or something smh. But it really does have a bad delay with reaction when you doing kombos. You have to actually time when you can actually press the buttons on the next section of the imput when doing kombos. And I don't like the Kameos
mk9 definitely was the best mk and mk xl also was badass. they should have kept thestyle of 9/X
but when they started to take out dashing mk was over for me.
And to this day, no MK game has beat MK9
MKX has the best gameplay out of the mortal kombat franchise in 2d. I hope the next game is either 3d or plays like mkx added with the variations but with better improvements. The assist usage in MK1 isn’t great kameo shouldn’t have been a thing I rather them add tag team like MK9.
Somebody help me out. I haven't played this yet. Are you able to play 1v1 or do you have to do 2v2 no matter what
They should just make Ultimate Mortal Kombat 9. Rebalance the game, rollback netcode with crossplay and more characters. No need for more.
Make all the color options for every type of skin free to choose. Not lock it behind coins/ character progress.
You know there was a sale for a bundle on the series X where you get injustice 2 legendary edition and mk11 ultimate for just $10 (all dlc ever released for both games included) & mk11 ultimate had so much to offer. The story, the krypt, the aftermath story, the return if friendships, & the secret challenging towers that give you kombat league skins or gear. Mk1 had a great story, some boardgame mode, & no krypt.🤷🏻♂️
This is exactly why I am not a sucker for buying a game on launch. I def wait for the kinks to be ironed out
100% same. No ermac and he’s all I wanna play. Him and reptile have been my mains for over 20 years lmao
We need MK9 back!!!
$150. That's what happened. F WB. MK2 Remix is better.
The thing for me is the horrible support on PC platform. I loved the gameplay but couldnt stick with it due to getting fucked by everything.
Idk man even MK 10 died really fast.
Same will happen with SF6. Both games filter everything through SJW sensibilities. You can dress it up in pretty words but it doesn’t make a good game. The character designs and stages are at best, boring and uninspired, for both games. NRS will never release a good game again, they’re not allowed to.
MK has always had an identity crisis. The 3d era and NRS games prove that they haven’t found their stride like Tekken or Street Fighter. MK changes every single game, and because of that, legacy skill isn’t really a thing
Go play Tekken
lol i remember people saying this is better than mk11 and people got insulted for it
I think kameos ruined it also no content
Mk is boring, once you get past the gimmicks it doesn't have staying power. It took me a few versions to understand that, I try to let everyone have their fun but other than that it is what it is for me.
Where is Takeda and Homelander!? WY toooo long between character releases. Why did i even buy the special
Edition
Am I the only one who likes kameos. I mean you have more strategy and can great ned combos and playing the same charackter with different kameos isnt always the same
As a casual player, the Kameo system is what kills the game for me. Aside from the gameplay aspect it just from a lore perspective feels uncharacteristic for most of these characters to get help from someone else in the middle of a fight. Like there's no honor in that
I find this discussion interesting because as someone who's basically an outsider to MK, I saw a majority of people recommending this game just for the story alone. Seeing reactions and memes about cunty Shang Tsung got my eyes on it in the first place.
Well….i delete the game after almost 60 hours….invasions is boring…gameplay is unbalanced and after a while is broken combos with serena,3-4 meta characters and after a while ok you can learn the combos beat the meta but after you defeat them they quit instantly 😂😂😂😂…online is empty, and gameplay after you understand how is working combo,lp,kameo repeat…then y get bored fast….i bought tekken 8 and is far…far better as a game than mk1 fast lighting gameplay, variety in battles, wow moments fresh gameplay full of content and the presentation is out of this world….i think it was wrong to launch again mk and no injustice 3….
MK1 iliterally feels like the Marvel Infinite of Mortal Kombat Games. Right down to their half assed execution, and from overcharging us for DLC that should've been included in the game day 1 as unlockables.
Add onto that, the game's stupid Always Online DRM that. NOBODY FUCKING WANTS*, but they *Insist on forcing every game to be "Game as a Service." all because some rich, out of touch executive just HAS to buy another Yacht….
This game deserves every bit criticism that it gets from how little respect NRS/WB have for the fans. They clearly do not care about us anymore. And as a diehard MK fan, thats fucking depressing. Mortal Kombat deserved better than this, Bottom Line.
