One word….
MILEENA
Check out my new mk 11 video it’s a funny moment please tell what you think about it thanks https://youtu.be/fi-aKcLXWFg
Honestly, the story is a bit biased, especially in MKX, where the evil boss (forgot his name lol) gets defeated not by Raiden, not by Sub Zero, not by Scorpion or any strong fighters, but by Cassie Cage, a regular human. It doesnt make sense to me honestly.
When I first seen the thumbnail I thought it was barrack obama
So what i thought about recently…MK9 raiden had the knowledge of things that would happen. But why then did Shinnok have the ability to come back twice?
My favorite mk game is shoulin monks because of everything especially the story and the gameplay
"COOL"!😎
"SILENCE SHINOK"! EPIC😃😁😀
How can they tell such lies, when MK11 story’s a complete abomination?
Mkx didn’t enjoy the storymode
The real story is how game informer attacks small you tubers and hits them with copyright strikes but let's the big ones get away with using the same footage
Lets be honest tho 75% of the community won't bother with the story and will just instead jump straight into online
36 dislikes are from the fourth snak-
Oh wait
Retcon.
It's 37
i just love when game devs up the game to a whole new lvl! IM SOO HYPED! i hope MK 11 does insane well for them! cause i want them to build on this!
I wonder if Geras' blood was supposed to be blue but was changed to red by demand. To me, the bright blue blood made him a little more unique. When I look at him, I just imagine that Kronika wanted a perfect servant (hence the lines that look like squares on his body). Using the sands of time and some strange blue essence, Geras was created.
BRO you guys know the funny thing is… Literally nobody is asking for Kung Jin lmao!!!
So did Takeda and Kung Jin just disappear lol???
I’m glad they did a time story and making the characters see their past selves because I bet a lot of people wanted to see their favorite characters actually meeting themselves instead of having small interactions with themselves.
Best scene in mkx for me is liu kang telling Jax how raiden basically ruined his life and like in that way he kinda did
Take notes capcom .
These I feel are incredible interviews both in terms of quality and content
It feels like NRS went all in with this storyline and game features (eg customizing, fatal blow). Looking back, MK 9-11 felt like trimming the fat, establishing a new audience, and bringing back the old with what feels like a trilogy. The question is where do they go from here post-11?
Mk9 had an interesting story. MK 10 had a terrible story. MK 11 story is somehow the worst. Holy shit you fucked up NRS.
Hell yeah. Multiplayer is fun and everything, but single player stories are what brought us into the gaming world. I'm so down to have more games with blockbuster film-style story modes.
Looking back at this I feel kinda bad for Shinnok
Almost..
So takeda and kenshis mkx endings were cannon and thats why they aint in tne main roster
Nether Realm needs to do better with their stories. MK11.had a great story trailer, but that potential was wasted on a mediocre story.
If you want to fight, say your piece. If you want to discuss it, leave a query.
Age of Ultron sucked. Why the hell would you want MK to be like that?
kotal is smashing jade
Seems like MK12 will go back to the first story. MK11 ending was Liu Kang became a Fire God and and together with Kitana, they need to monitor Kronika’s Giant Hour Glass to balance the flow of the new era. Mk12 is about the beginning of the new era where the Mortal Kombat Tournament will start again.
Too many plot holes in the story mode. Where did all the revenants disappear and what happened to reptile???
How in the hell did they make it in 2 years lol
Mk 12 will have Kano son ,an other lost characters I bet
STORY MODES THAT MATTER HUH…………….
I think it would be better for the perfect ending if kung Lao had joined Liu kang instead of kitana. The whole relationship between Liu kang and kung Lao is that they both have the same goal, but they have very different personalities. This could lead to some conflict (nothing serious though) in mk12. With Liu kang and kitana, in the unlikely event that this is canon, they will agree on most, if not everything
The story modes are overhyped.
They have dumb plot twists and stupid moments. They are really just carried by johnny cage.
Fuck you Cianciolo.
MK11 story is fucking garbage, they need new writers ASAP!
It should have been ‘How NetherRealm Studios lie to us on making “great” stories that “matters a lot” ‘
If they use Time Travel in the next MK, I'm done with NetherRealm for good. They've totally bastardize and undermine so much of the source material from the original timeline and made it overly convoluted and retcon one to too many times that they have no real plans or actual ideas
laughs in retcons, butchered characters and timeline resets
Story Modes that matter? Are you serious? All this guy does is retcon EVERYTHING and show us whatever happened in the last game won't matter in the sequel.
I.E. umm…SINDEL? This guy does NOT deserve his job. He does NOT respect the franchise. Fire this guy please.
Dominic is a hack and a fraud
