Push A To Start: In order to enjoy Mortal Kombat 9 (or should I say Mortal Kombat, because this iteration of the series has the exact same title as the original for no adequately explained reason) there are certain preparatory steps you need to undertake before you commit to it.
In the interest of providing people with a fair starting point, I thought it would be useful to construct this handy step-by-step tutorial in order to give people some idea of the sacrifices they’re going to need to make in order to have fun with what is, at its heart, a very solid fighting game.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
The catched the woke virus after that, saying for MK 10 that "Female Characters Will Be More Realistically Proportioned". You could still rip a spine or blow a head in a bloody explosion, but don't you dare to show a side boob or all hell will break loose.
A Mortal Kombat Remaster could be in development, as teased by the Eyeballistic CEO on Twitter through allegedly AI-generated images.
Didn't they have HD remakes of the first 3 games ready and for some reason decided not to release it? And also, wasn't a remake of the first game being developed already with all new actors portraying the original cast and they shelved that one too?
It's all they know how to do now huh ? Could've atleast have a look at remaking/remastering Shaolin Monks.
GameSpew: Episode 3 of The Boys season 4 parodied Mortal Kombat with Vought's Tournament of Heroes. Now we want it to be real.
"Forget about the potential of videogames as a storytelling medium.
Narrative has no place in Mortal Kombat, and if you go into the “Story Mode” expecting a moving, character-driven tale of drama, suspense and konflict, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. If it makes you feel better, imagine each fight as its own little narrative, and make up all the backstory in your imagination."
Wut? Maybe I'm alone here, but I loved MK9's storyline. True, it wasn't an overly deep or intricate plot, but it's a fighting game- I don't expect a lot of depth.
Though it's easily one of the best storylines in a fighting game since...well, ever.
And it might not have been deep, but I was still pretty invested in it. I genuinely wanted to know what would happen after each fight, and I'm looking forward to MK10 to see how the new reality will have changed MK4's plot.
I liked MK9's storyline as well. I don't know whether they borrowed from the Legacy web series or vice versa, but I thought that the two shared a lot in common.
MK has the best story out of all Fighters
LOOL looks like someone is pissed off of the spam fest that is the online. GET OVER HERE!!!.... and the stupid ass wake-up attack shoulder charge of nightwolf...
I know I sound like a whinny little bitch, but seriously a whole match of just using special moves.... sad and pathetic.
And for those that said that kenshin would be cheap think again.
5 steps? Either you do like mario-fighting games or you don't... It's as simple as that.
