I recently posted about enjoying MK11 story and I just started MK1. I struggle to get into it from the beginning, I hope it gets better...

Hope you like it, I tried!

I decided to play the 3D-era games in the franchise, and I was impressed by how the older titles featured intros that truly helped the player understand the story and feel motivated to play. Five-minute cutscenes managed to explain the narrative better than the nonsensical, convoluted plots found in the more recent *MK11* and *MK1*.

Yes, its massively poke heavy. Still funny.

I would like to hear other people’s thoughts on this, but I would say these menu screens were a feature that a majority of players appreciated, and the artwork has aged wonderfully. I think they are underrated in terms of how well they added to the eerie and dark atmosphere of the Armageddon game, as well as highlighting some of the series best rivalries.

Which brings me to another topic of how some of the individual rivalries in the current games seem a little neglected in comparison to the older games. I would possibly like to see more direct rivalries being introduced or old ones be explored again.

Armageddon possibly had one the best representation of the MK rivalries, from the fights in the intro, the konquest mode, and the menu art work. Would you like to see the rivalry screens be reintroduced into a modern Mortal Kombat game? Would you like to see the rivalries be prioritized more?

Seeing as how Kotal flopped in MKX & MK11 (beheaded by Shao & Sindel), there must be something the New Era can do for Kotal next game. I mean for an Aztec/Mayan inspired character, he's got potential if done right.

How will he be fixed & redeemed after how he was a failure?

He's got some good special moves. But his character went up to downhill.

I might be the latest one to try mk1, I've been GRINDING mk11 for a long time that I got muscle memory not just in games but in irl too.

I like mk1 but bro mk11 is just way more fun imo from story, kombos, kombatants and the hype

I played it with my uncle and we didn't get the hype as we were having before, just silent the whole fight, then we booted up mk11 and man it was hella fun and the hype was real

What do you think about the current state of mk1?

I wanted both movies to be good, but at least MK II got favorable reviews.

I've wanted this skin forever. I was psyched when it popped up.

I remember playing MK9 and loving how cool Nightwolf was sacrificing himself to defeat Sindel. Also the dynamic between him and Raiden, Haokah, was my favourite in the game. I’d love if in the movies, he plays a large role in a different side plot that results in Onaga as a big bad. He has always felt like an equal to the legends of Mortal Kombat.

Hi,

I'm trying to learn this game, should I focus on basic attack combos or special moves? it feels so overwhelming, each character has tones of combos and when you are in a fight, you get nervous and forget all the combos, shold I focus on learning basic attack combos or special moves?

Is this an glitch because i dont remember beating a whole living tower in 8 seconds

MK1, MK2, MK3, UMK3 lead to Trilogy with all the previous characters

MK4, MK Gold, MKDA, MKD lead to Armageddon with all the previous characters

MK9, MKX, MK11, MK1 should lead to a game that at the least includes all previous characters from MK9 to MK1. They can reuse assets, animation and movesets all they want to get the large roster done.

I’ve been a mortal kombat fan since childhood but never really got into online,mkx was one of my favourites so I wanna get back into it and play online but I need to learn it,and I’m kinda confused because I know it’s only gonna be tryhards and veterans on online so if someone could guide me through what to do to play online and get better,I’d appreciate it.

Is it worth it?

Comic Con as Kung Lao was a major success.
