The Mortal Kombat Problem

Netherrealm studios unveiled Mortal Kombat 11 gameplay two weeks ago. There was a lot to unpack in the thirty-minute presentation, including new characters, a revamped gear system, and major changes to some core fighting mechanics.

The fatalities are no longer cool or shocking (back in the 90s this was some heavy shit and the Genesis version had optional gore censoring) and most importantly other fighters do fighting better.

So, stiff game play and the novelty of fatalities has dried up. Just my opinion on the franchise as a whole, and I doubt MK 11 has advanced the series much in any way.

I used to love my fighting games back in the day. I lost interest in them along time ago tbh.
For me personally it's the genre which has never really evolved.

It's hard to Evolve the fighting genre tbf but I'm with you. I used to buy all the big fighters but I cannot justify paying full price for them these days when they have the cheek to charge you for extra characters.

Same here...even my beloved IP of all times - Dragon ball - cant get me to try a fighting game these days. Maybe the new RPG DBZ game will...

The storys behind the fighters could be told better now I think though but agree generally the fighting genre is harder to evolve.
Bk in my student union days (I feel old 1992) my 20p winner stays on with the original street fighter arcade machine wow, never did do much studying haha.
