    idiots who pay for microtransactions are the reason why gaming is in this state.
  • @Liquidcadmus
    this is why gaming was better in the 90's, you paid for a game, and you got the full experience.
  • One of the main reasons that Mortal Kombat became such a hit on consoles was that you could buy the whole game once and play it as much as you wanted instead of having to keep putting quarters in the arcade machine. It feels like we're going backwards with a lot of newer games.
  • @jessycruz2465
    The problem with mortal kombat 1 is that it's more flash than substance. More content hid behind paywall rather than more content and unlockables you can get just by playing the game.
  • @ge0ne0
    I grew up with MK after finding MK1 in my local arcade. This MK was absolutely awful and a desperate cash grab. Mk has been going downhill after MKX. I would LOVE to get my money back for this game
  • @zaden9009
    How the mighty have fallen… Started out in the 3D era and the last MK I fully enjoyed was MK9. It’s sad seeing how it slowly became more corporate. Sad.
  • @kenshin391
    Now will y’all stop dropping $100 for a company that doesn’t give a shit how their game turns out? 👀👀
  • Mortal Kombat has rebooted 5 times in 15 years. This has always reeaally bothered me as a life long fan. Armageddon was the end & a New Beginning. Which I eagerly anticipated MK Vs. DC came out of nowhere & really confused me. So I waited for the next one Finally MK9 released, & I was head over heels in love. ❤ Couldn't wait to play whatever was to come next after such an intense reboot MKX released, & its still my FAVORITE fighting game that I've ever played. The new story, gameplay styles & characters captured my heart, I eagerly anticipated the Sequel once again & Then it happened MK11 happened, a game I just couldn't enjoy no matter how much I played. Though gorgeous The Microtransactions, terrible krypt, Sluggish gameplay, Create your own variant system, & BIGGEST SIN OF ALL. REBOOOTING!! Killed this game for me. MK9's new timeline wasn't enough for 'em MKX's Twenty Year timeskip wasnt enough for em' MK11 Results In a stagnant meandering story, with blatantly ridiculous intentions at times. Imagine if the entirety of Avengers Endgame was the time travel segment. I didn't even buy MK1, it's not for me. I don't even want to explain. Though MK11 & 1 still have epic guest characters, they didn't save these games for me. Especially because microtransactions just got worse & worse with each release...
  • What they fail to realize is that the market is not volatile. It's just that when you disrespect the fans, disrespect the source material and overcharge for everything people will not be excited for what you have to offer. Also, WB and many other devs are spending too much damn money on those games. Just throwing money at a project won't make it good. Pick a small team of highly talented and passionate devs, give gamers more value than what they're paying for, and they'll always stick with you.
  • @ansonpayne1410
    What`s next??? A microtransaction to press the start button???
  • @buddyhall5330
    It got tired real fast. Nothing like seeing the same few combos over and over again. No skill needed....and here comes 42% 60% combo hit
  • @KasumiKenshirou
    This kind of crap is why the newest console I own is the PS3. That's when I became aware of DLC and didn't buy many games on that console. Because of these greedy practices I've pretty much stopped playing games altogether, finding other ways to occupy my time.
  • @JoeyJ0J0
    I regret buying this at launch, the only time I play it is when a new DLC comes out. What a downgrade from 11
  • @Iceman19852003
    MK has a future, it's just that it needs to branch off into different types of games. The MK Universe has so much rich lore that there are a plethora of avenues it can go. For example, bring back the action-based Shaolin Monks style games. Or a new take on Special Forces with Jax and Sonia with a Resident Evil feel/take on it. Of course the traditional fighting games but more spread out amongst the other things they can work on in between with the storytelling interwoven between them all. Just stop giving us half ass fighting games so often.
  • @jarvisb8857
    Honestly I’d love to see Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks make a come back because that was the only MK game I’d ever play. The controls and combos were fun as well.
  • @fxman9071
    You know, I miss unlocking my characters through gameplay and not DLC 😢
