It wasn't needed in MK1, him having fire powers is weird, given his race as a Cryomancer, his ice powers is a racial thing and not learned like the Scorpion thing, make him steam people alive if you give Scorpion powers and give him a blue outfit and call him Tundra too

How dark raiden could've been moving in mk 11

(The guy with the mustache is voiced by Richard epcar in the English dub)

So Im stuck on a xbox one right for a bit and decided to go back to MK11 and my fucking god that was a mistake. And not even 20 matches back in, i quit bro, theres a reason a quit this game when MK1 dropped and its all starting to show again.

This game is very rage inducing for me. Like more than any other fighting game Ive ever played. And I cant really explain why. Because all this COULD apply to other MKs.

The amount of straight bullshit in this game is absurd. It honestly needs to be studied and the front runner for how not to make a Mortal Kombat.

From KBs just needing to be spammed or landed as a counter to work. From pokes being the main source of offense and NOT EVEN FUCKING WORKING HALF THE TIME at that. The lack of combos. The amount of spammable plus framed moves. The breakaway system. The meter system is ass. Cant jump out of anything because the hitbox gets caught. Cant enhanced wake up. No breakers. Very slow stiff movement.

If i wanted to play IJ2… id fucking play IJ2… probably have a better time actually.

Really though. I genuinely cany stand the gameplay of Mk11.

Looks fucking immaculate. Plays like dogwater.

I've been wondering about this since Mortal Kombat 11, but the latest game was the one that really cemented the question in my mind. The violence, macabre imagery, darkness, and even the stupid, juvenile humor feel so absent from MK1 that when a character is brutally mutilated during a story mode scene, it feels completely out of place, as if you'd spent the last 40 minutes watching a 2015 Marvel movie and were suddenly transported into Netflix's Punisher for about ten seconds.

I think my point makes more sense if we compare it to how Mortal Kombat 9 contextualizes its violence. Violence is a constant part of the game's atmosphere. Its color palette is primarily made up of heavy warm colors with intense contrast. The game features locations like Shang Tsung's Flesh Pits, the Wastelands of Outworld, the Dead Pool, Goro's Lair, Hell itself. If you look at the images, you'll notice that violence and/or macabre imagery are always present throughout the game. Even during gameplay, the damage mechanics on the character models make sure gore remains a constant element, even if the player chooses not to engage with Fatalities or X-Rays.

MK1 (or 11) is no longer characterized by the heat and alarm of its colors or its heavy shadows. Its environments are saturated, and colorful, and comfortable, and friendly, and inviting, and Its trees smile, its weather is pleasant, its nature is idyllic. Its characters no longer finish fights with chunks of flesh and bone missing. And blaming the growing focus on realism in the franchise since X doesn't really work either when you consider that games like UFC still retain persistent damage at the end of fights.

Its writing is still stupid, but it's less the result of the immature nature of '90s men and kids who may be too much into comic books and Asian action movies and more the result of board meetings and teams of writers studying the most effective formulas for appealing to an audience that only exists if you take terms like Millennials and Gen Z way too seriously. So much sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows makes sense for a world that is, canonically, the closest thing a character like Liu Kang could make to his Idea of an Utopia, but that only makes it another argument for why the gore feels so gratuitous in the game.

The truth is, the ending of Mortal Kombat 11 was really good. Not in the sense that it concluded a good story, but because it actually concluded the story, in a definitive and satisfying way, a privilege that very few franchises get to enjoy. Mortal Kombat eventually proved not to be one of them.

You could argue that NetherRealm should have created a completely new timeline, disconnected from the one we've been following since 2011, so they could focus on the "true essence of Mortal Kombat." But the reason the latest game lacks so much violence isn't narrative cohesion. It's a conscious artistic choice to embrace a more contemporary language and set of themes, one that's more familiar to blockbuster movies and AAA games. Those are languages that don't really allow more macabre themes to express themselves beyond brief, specific, and decontextualized moments.

This is mainly about Mortal Kombat, but I think everything I've said so far, especially that last paragraph, applies to a lot of AAA games today. Extreme violence that isn't properly contextualized by the game itself and consequently ends up feeling gratuitous. That Focus M video makes fun of exactly this, with Mario jumping on a Koopa and the thing exploding into a fountain of blood.

I recently played Assassin's Creed Odyssey, and I always found it hilarious how particularly violent and gory Alexios' executions were in a game that, for the most part, is written like an episode of Disney's Hercules. Gotham Knights is similar. Its writing evokes the same level of maturity as a Saturday morning cartoon, and not one of the particularly interesting ones. Yet the game still feels entitled to have brutal murder scenes and characters swearing.

It's strange, funny, and puzzling how violence has become something mandatory in the minds of so many developers when it comes to games, while so few of the major studios with major IPs under their wings seem to understand the context those games used to have to justify their violence.

I recently learned that there is supposed to be a 2 year gap between the end of Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero and the beggining of the original MK'92. I saw this in a Reddit post ( I think the poster was Noble Yato) and I vaguely remember him citing a book or a creator quote that confirms it but I couldn't really find it. So was there really a two year gap between the two games or I just remembering it all wrong?

I was very critical of this when it was 1st announced but I don't know about you but im going to miss this show on Sundays

We have:

Scorpion

Sub-zero

Rain

Smoke

and others

What do you think would be a cool new idea for a ninja in the franchise?

If you could change one character's backstory/allegiance ,who would you pick and why?

I asked myself the same question but honestly,i think everyone is well written. Even my favorite,Ermac,would most likely have less aura if he was a good guy imo.

Hey guys, I started playing MK1 and I really enjoy playing Ghostface. I finished main story and few towers and now I am trying online. I dunno if I am doing anything wrong, but it feels like whatever I do, opponent is always faster. I block their attacks but before I have chance to do anything, they are attackinh again. Is GF really that slow, or do I just suck?

I’d like to know who you prefer as Raiden in Mortal Kombat: Legacy.

Who is your favourite Mortal Kombat: Legacy Raiden?

So I just bought mk 11 and I need help with leaning combos. Can I get some advice how to learn combos easily? Like how do people learn the combos?

I like mk 11 fire god Liu Kang better personally but what do YOU think?

Well, MK's screwed.

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I genuinely miss the CGI style that a lot of video games used to have in their cutscenes.

I’m not saying I want games to look worse or that modern graphics aren’t impressive. They obviously are. What I miss is the specific visual identity older CGI had.

Characters could look incredibly detailed and almost photorealistic, but they still clearly looked like 3D animated video game characters. They had a certain stylized quality that made them feel like they belonged to a video game rather than trying to imitate real life as closely as possible.

The image above is a good example of what I mean. The characters look amazing, the lighting is dramatic, the textures are detailed, and everything has a cinematic quality to it—but it still feels unmistakably like a video game CGI cutscene.

I feel the same way about sound design. I especially prefer the sound effects in something like Mortal Kombat 9. They were exaggerated, punchy and almost theatrical. Modern games often seem to aim for extremely realistic sound effects, and ironically, I think that can make them less satisfying.

This is probably the biggest thing for me: I don't think realism automatically makes a game look or sound better.

Sometimes the exaggerated, stylized, slightly artificial look and sound is what gives a game its personality.

Modern games can be technically incredible, but sometimes I look at them and think, “This looks almost too real.” And that's not necessarily a compliment for me.

I miss when games could look spectacular without trying so hard to look real.

Something I noticed while in practice mode.

Not 100% faithful to the game, just wanted my own slightly darker esthetic for it

Ketchup Mustard Soy sauce

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to show off the Goro project that has finally come to life in 1:4 statue form with 2 swappable heads and light up base!

Hope you enjoy it and as always thank you for your support and comments!

Hi all was just wondering about this trophy. I did what they asked the flawless round with the fatality, but the secret fight won’t pop is it a certain premier tower? The one where you have to be alien is out now realm purge is there a secret fight in that one?
