“Hating MK is cool!” “They’re just hating for the sake of hating.” “They’re just trying to be different” We’re really in this day and age where people are so allergic to criticism that they feel to see the issues with their own game.

@djcrazy941026 18 күн бұрын

Well, hating on MK is cool because the same people wouldn't talk about the negatives of tekken, for example the pluggers that wouldn't get punished for rage quitting on tekken rank. Those people for some reason remain silent but are so good to call out MK. So there is a trend of "it's cool to trash MK" but conveniently ignore the bad of other games. But that is just my opinion.

@@djcrazy941026 I’m not sure where you’ve been but to say people have been quiet about Tekken 8’s plugging problems is either a massive lie or you haven’t seen it at all, because plugging has been one of Tekken 8’s biggest gripes that the community has been vocal about for a long time before the first patch, and it only got worse after that not only with Tekken Shop and Battle Pass, but also how online ranks you by prowess rather than overall Rank. Tekken 8, unlike MK1, actually focuses on its competitive side rather than the casual audience, so it would be crazy if Tekken 8 players were quiet about this dilemma(they weren’t btw)

My question is why would Mortal Kombat fans want to hate Mortal Kombat? Any fan that is sour on the game and the state of the franchise DO NOT WANT TO FEEL THAT WAY! Some of us just can’t turn a blind eye to the myriad of issues. Some of us would rather be honest in hopes of a better product than to lie, be delusional, and fall complacent leading to stuff like MK11 and MK12. And being critical doesn’t make someone any less of a fan. IMO it makes them more of a fan for wanting MK to reach the heights it SHOULD be at. The fanboys only have Netherrealm, WB, the shills, and themselves to blame for the state Mortal Kombat is in and how it’s viewed currently.

Its crazy to think that making up lies and conspiracy theories about a game is easier to do than just saying, "Maybe the game just isnt that good, and we should demand better from NRS". MK players should play the game they think is the most fun.

@@sabrvibes3147 ive enjoyed both injustice games and even with MK I enjoyed 9, X, 11 was eh and 1 was Eh. So 🤷🏾‍♂️ imo they hit more than they miss. MK X and injustice 2 are my favorite fighting games ever. Why would I stop buying NRS games. Now if they follow the mk1 and mk11 trend I won’t buy.

I think another reason as too why SF and Tekken popped off while MK is in the shitter is because of the dev teams. While it took time Capcom and Namco listened to the criticism and the "hate" and fixed their games as best they could, and improved in their sequels substantially. NRS would rather plug their ears and go "lalalalala I'm not listening" instead of actually taking criticism.

@just_2swift 17 күн бұрын

If NRS used MKX as a canvas and took the 2 best variations of each character and combined them for example Scorpion Hellfire + Ninjistu and add a special move from Inferno (demon summons) Kung Lao Tempest + Buzzsaw and a special from hat trick (Hatrap) And what's even more insane is that NRS could keep the characters strings the same since they were universal in each variation they can add also add those unique ones like scorpions ninjustu strings to the list above. Imagine the Characters in this example right now compared to what we got in MK1. THIS I what i expected from MK11 and more so MK1... This is what Mortal Kombat's trajectory should've been. When you find success you don't deviate from it you build upon it. This is called Legacy. Capcom and Namco know this and thats why they're at the top.

If they can do those things maybe MK can be saved.

Good shit as always, Tom. I can only comment on my local scene during the MK2 - Mk4 arcade days. There was definitely discrimination against mortal Kombat in the San Antonio, Austin Texas area. Street fighter crowd always looked down and shunned MK as a game and the players. Granted, MK here always attracted the goths and metalheads but still, cmon. I played everything but MK was my main I remember witnessing straight up bullying of mk players. Oh well, the rivalries is what made the arcade days so great. Being face to face and shit talking was on another level. I wonder how the new gen online players would fair back then haha

I've followed the FGC since about '07. So when MK9 came out, I can honestly say every pro player gave it a chance. We had the justin wongs, the perfect legends, the filipino champs of the world playing it. Champ even played injustice for awhile. Every top player at the time were signing up for tournaments. It was the perfect breakthrough NRS needed. (man did they drop the ball after MKX. WTF.) Tons of new members of the FGC flooded in thanks to MK9. It was hype AF. MK had shit tons of fans, there just wasn't a game that was being played competitively at the level that capcom games were. I don't know about everyone else but I can guess, everyone would ask themselves the question 'what if MK actually had a highly competitive game? That shit be fire.' next to dragonball, it's what every player wanted. Side note, SF4 was hated by a large faction of people, some people outright refused to play it and went back to a smaller 3S scene. T6 was hated as well, and don't even get me started on SFV. That game was LOATHED.

There is NO SUCH THING as hating to be cool. Hate is not cool, it's exhausting. I think people act to love things and be cool aka "trend following" When people hate with solid points and reasons.. that means that person genuinely cares about something. But hating just to hate has never been cool and is exhausting and no one wants to be around negativity. Next day youre a work or school, trying being hateful towards everything and see if people want to be around you or not... If MK is going to double down on their woke timeline reset BULLSHIT, and defend it and attack the real fans. Im down to help in anyway I can

Tbh I’m a new fighting game player and this was my first mk game, I was so excited for this game on release. I remember running home early from school to start downloading it so I wouldn’t have to wait after coming back from Xc practice. I played it and had fun for the first few hours, but then I started to get really bored by it. At first I assumed that it was because I was trash so I gave it a fair shot and got alright at the game, but I still wasn’t having fun. I was sort of really disappointed with it and thought maybe I was crazy cause everyone online was gassing it up. I feel so validated now that mk1 criticism is popping up everywhere on KZfaq. Really sucks that I spent that money on this game and don’t even have it downloaded on steam anymore. Wish I could use that many to get that new fatal fury game that looks awesome😢 Edit: after thinking about it for a while maybe I’m not that new, I’ve almost exclusively been playing fighting games for about two years now

I've been saying MK has been behind literally every other FG, since the first one. Granted the realistic looking characters and the fatalities where cool, but the entire franchise relies too much on it to the point it's all it offers. You'd think they'd try to improve on what they had in 9 which was decent enough, it almost felt like a good game, hell, the dual fighting styles in Armageddon had potential, but I supposed they were scared to be compared to Soul Calibur because I saw no reason in removing it, it would've made the series stand out more than from just having gore.

Something i think worth mentionning is that T7 was not out on console yet at evo 2015 and 2016, so the low numbers make sens. But agree about the overall MK situation, i do prefer MK9 over MKX tho beside the fact MK9 didn't had Erron Black. But MK9 was just pure delicious MK, MKX gameplay was great but the variation while they have an appealing side but it was just way too unblalance that are just too hard to balance. MK2 and MK9 are peak MK imo
