This video isn't meant to be taken 100% serious. I know some of my points are hit and miss lol but this mainly a satire video with some points I'd like to bring up. I don't hate either of the games if that's how it's coming off. I love them both for what they bring. I'm just pointing out in my opinion the game as it currently is, isn't better than MK 11 for the fact it really hasn't offered us anything else besides new characters. Maybe that's a little more clear. ( This was supposed to be in the BIO but I had to scrap the original upload because it wasn't the right resolution haha)

Speaking as a casual player, MK 11 is probably the most fun I've had in the series.

As a fan getting back into MK, 1 seems fun but so disappointing. Ill stick to MKX

Mk11 is the greatest mk game ever and I said that in 2020 3.5 years later I still feel the same way

The must use cameo turned me off from mortal kombat 1, still playing mk11 till date... wish cameos were just a mode on its own and not a must use everywhere, all the time...

I played all Mortal Kombat games, including the spin offs, and I've never been this dissapointed in an MK game, just for Special Forces. The gameplay is nice, but there is a lot missing from this game, and Invasions fucking sucks. I would have prefered the krypt from 11 instead of Invasions. At least, in 11, there was a lot of content to unlock, and most players had some motivation to play 11. Also, the DLC characters have no extra skins. Remember when a DLC character from 11 dropped, there were skins included for the DLC characters, and a skin pack for other 3-4 characters with each DLC release? For the same price in 1, we get just the DLC character. In 1, there is no motivation to grind for unlockables, because the game feels too repetitive, and most of the "recolors" of the skins are bad.

I’m on mkx again and I’d rather play that even though that game is dead and not perfect.

GAMEPLAY is the most important part of a game. If mk1 had ZERO cosmetics or game modes, it would still be way better than mk11...

mk 1's Johnny Cage and some fatalities were some of the best in the series. However MK X and 9 were just masterpieces in terms of fighting games. I'll stick to MK X till 1 gets better

It's a fighting game. The core is fighting. The fighting is better in MK1. That sums it up for me, in my opinion. MK11's gameplay was flawed by the variation system. Breakaway sucked. Krushing blows were unbalanced. Wake up was a joke. MK1's fights feel and look like they should, cool. The packaging around MK1 is less than adequate at this day and age, tbh. Customization is severely lacking. And invasions are boring.

you want ai battles back? the mode, where you don't play the game?

I understand your points, but it is a bit deceiving to only use steam charts to determine a player base's numbers when talking about a cross plataform game.

In a fighting game, the primary aspect that matters the most is the gameplay. MK1's gameplay is exponentially better than MK11's. MK11 does have more content, more polished graphics and a better netcode than MK1, but even with all the stuff that MK1's players have gone through as far as bugs, missing content and microtransactions, the core gameplay is so good that players have ignored those aspects. For its many faults, MK1 does tend to reward the better player, meanwhile, MK11 rewards the player using the character with better resources. MK11 had too many gameplay mechanics that rewarded players for getting their asses kicked: Fatal Blows, Krushing Blows, Wakeup Rolls, relatively poor AAs and Breakaways. The vast amount of players that prefer MK11 to MK1 are upset that mechanics like these don't exist to give them chances of beating people that they have no business winning against, even if they don't say it aloud.

mk1 gameplay is a lot more enjoyable than mk11 one, mk11 combos feels weird and a bit slow. mk1 is super overhated

Would love to collab with you. I just recently covered a video on this

Has John Wick been added to any of these? If not that’s crazy to me.

The Last MK i played is MK9. Have never been that good at these kind of games and Shao Khan is always kicking my butt so No can never finish it. So I never bothered to Buy the next 3 games after MK9. AS Much as i love the MK 95 film these games are still awesome. MK95 is still and forever will be My Favorite Introduction to Mortal Kombat. That Darn Soundtrack is just fire!!

Nice content dude

Liu Kang, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Kung Lao, Raiden, Kitana, Mileena, Johnny Cage, and Kenshi should have their own kharacter trailer There should be 2 female dlc kharacters konfirmed for kombat pack roster There should be three lines, stage transitions, and interaction 8 newcomers should be konfirmed for playable roster Sonya, Ava, Jax, Ty, Kano, Jade, Stryker, and Sareena should be on the launch playable roster Kuai Liang should be sub-zero, hanzo hasashi should be scorpion, and bi-han should be hydro

I think mk11 looks better and plays better. If that game had punishable pokes rebalanced krushing blows and meterless launchers it would be goated

it’s really just the lack of content and the fuck up story ending and timeline bs

Gameplay wise, MK1 is way better, but it’s a very lackluster game

I don’t think so

OddgiantAF and others make better interactions than in the game. Tanya and Mileena's relationship can eat sand; it's forced and inorganic! Also, they practically BUTCHERED Sydny Cross's face in CGI to create Tanya's face! However, Megan Fox as Nitara was amazing. Shao will ALWAYS be Shao Kahn to me! Ashrah calling out Hollywood of its evil is just amazing!

All of the modern fighting games have become live service always online trash.

Give us modes that remove the fucking cameos, it’s not that hard.

What sucks about MK 1 the most is why is khai Yang is scorpion and not Hanzo Hasahi as Scorpion that’s what really killed MK 1 story mode and killed MK 1 And where is Jade MK 11 is better

I am very disappointed in MK1. I like the game play. But the cameos should have been thought out better on how they work. Not all of them. But about half of them. Invasions was a horrible decision. They should have just stuck with the towers to earn coin. And brought the crypt back and do seasons in the crypt with random battles and boss fight there for the new season of invasion storyline.

MkX and 11 both did very well. MK1 is a whole different universe.

I think kameos are hard to use as high damaging combos cannot be done without kameos so i prefer mk11 where it was a solo person combo

Mk1 kinda disappointed me in the invasions and kameo fighters I REALLY WANTEF TO PLAY AS THE KAMEOS mk11 did a greater job

It ain’t no maybe bro, after playing mk1 for a while I agree. I would rather play mk11. This shi is hot garbage. Who da fuh asked for assist in mortal kombat? Why y’all didn’t just take time to balance the characters, and give us fan favorites instead of mapping them to a fuhking button. Damn this game garbage!

Yeah bro this game is trash.. I tried to force myself to like it cause it’s mk but I can’t get with this game, they strayed too far from the path with this fruity ssa game.

Nu huh, its not that bad, over hated, if your mad, fight me

It's not worse than 11.

Why are y'all over hating it's so fun and I'm playing MK from MK9 MK1 is soo fun

Nah my guy MK11 is fundamentally flawed the only problems I’ve seen with MK1 is just content (that really shouldn’t matter), the gameplay being slow compared to the past games and of course something the gaming community will absolutely tear a new asshole on twitter that being microtransactions

We all know mk1 was supposed to be injustice 3 hence all the flying and jumping around! Mk1 lacking Games mode's and much needed reply Value that mk11 had! Also gotto get rid of the Gender swapping! How about making the male Character's Cut and buffed likewise female Character's Sexy and Bad-ass! Havnt played mk1 since season 2! Game is still Currently Traah! Pathetic effort front developers to make this game Great!

It IS worse.

Mk11 sucked x was better and 1 is dope once your learn how to use the Kameo during combos

no its actually better than mk11.

P R O M O S M

Why do people pretend that mk11 was good😂

Someone said it best in the comments . It’s a fighting game, the core of the game is fighting, the gameplay and core mechanics of the game is the best in the series . I really don’t understand the complaints about micro transactions and costumes 😭, the game is fun the community just nitpicking💯

Overhated

The combos are too hard

Neither one of them are bad give it time to show you it just started. Peacemaker is one of the best dlc I played.

From Justin Wong: All NRS Games are always the trash tier.

Ya'll are starting to cry too much. Enjoy the game...or don't.

If you’re broke just say it…

There’s nothing worse than MK11 🙈 🗑️

my reasons why Woke-tal Kombat 1 is bad. WARNING : Sensitive Topic. Dont read if you are Wokey or some Karen :D 1- the game is an unfinished mess. there are even rumors that it was originally gonna be Injustice 3 but but changed to MK and rushed 2- story is now literally a joke, they abandoned all the classic MK lore and atmoshpere, resetted everything twice yet managed to make it even worse and worse, turned MK into some marvel multiverse B S 3- roster is few, lacking a lot. and they keep adding B S guests from comic like Dumbi-Man, Piss-Maker, Home-Invader, which takes slots of legacy characters 4- kameos should have been optional and it should have been tag team modes, not just assists 5 - ruined the character origins, subzero is now scorpion, some edgelord is now subzero, baraka is now a good boy, reptile is a soi boi, shao is now a generic goon, reiko is a shao fan boi, and and havik is now dariou with darius story and meat's moveset, and worse he's a commie hahah :D 6- worst char designs. gave subzero and scorpion granny buns, smoke having a karen haircut. and especially fems. Tran'ya, Li Man'i, Bi'Leena. bunch of de-femine woke designs hahah :D 7- absolutely most pointless customization ever. no costumes, 1000 awful recolors of same skins 8- lacking game modes. invasions are BS. no krypt no kaf no konquest 9- they dont care about the OG longyear fans. their target community are TW weirdos now.. which is a shame :D 10- the game is ruined because of Woke too, look at how they added a traps version of Cage to please alphabet community. they are even in the dev team hahah :D and the game is associated with SweetBaby inc a.k.a the biggest woke mob of gaming then they wonder why Woke-tal Kombat is dead. they simply put agendas before game's fandom. then they cry on TW when their game is dead :)

And another guy that wants attention because he never gets it irl

Woke-tal Kombat 11 was already a trash game. and you thought it wouldnt get any worse. WRONG. Woke-tal Kombat 1 took trash to another level. WK1 has worse gameplay, worse customizations, worse char designs and even worse lore than WK11, they dont care about game anymore, they just care about ESG/DEI Woke B S, they even created a traps version of johnny cage called janette or whatever hahah WK1 is an absolute circus :D

Mk1 is unfun to watch, I can't imagine it's much more fun to play.
