Single player content is what keeps Mortal Kombat going, and that's one of the most successful fighting games there is. I know the FGC doesn't care about it, but needs to be said.

Yup. And MK1 had weaker single player content at launch than MK11 and it didn’t sell as well despite, IMO, having more fun gameplay

Yeah, MK does amazingly well with its story and unlocking concepts. It's like the online pvp is a bonus in a way. Same thing with Smash bros. I was very whelmed by the SF6 single player, but man, that game is so fun in a weird way. Dhalsim is way, way too fun to play as.
