What y'all think of the story?

Very disappointed. It was great up until the halfway point.

Advertised this as some great restart only for the characters to mostly end up being the same, and their hard on for time travel/multi verse shyt is beyond frustrating. Just get back to telling simple, effective stories without paradox bull shyt. Tired of it. Thought they learned from the mess that was MK11's plot.

I keep forgetting how toxic the MK community is. nikkas be all on the mic giggling like bytches doing fatalities, fatal blows, and other time wasting shyt after the first match. But let them get hit with a brutality and they dashboarding :mjlol:

And so far I haven’t run into many people doing really cool creative shyt with kameos. Just a bunch of people spamming sareenas daggers. Kinda concerning since these crop of players are suppose to be the die hards who copped 3 days earlier
give it time. The old guard is getting retired and the new generation is on the rise.

Game's not officially out till tuesday and most MK "veterans" generally have little to no experience with assist based fighters. Hell Doom's hidden missiles was NOT a day/week 1 staple back during vanilla MVC3 launch, that was a discovery that took time, as "optimal" kameo setups will be with this game no doubt. Give it a bit breh :pachaha:

Two things that I wanted to see happen in the story of this game actually happened:

They incorporated BOTH Aftermath endings into the story and then broke the third wall by revealing it in the story.

Ermac actually housing the soul of King Jerrod and King Jerrod taking control over the souls and becoming Jerrod again.

And I may be in the minority, but I'm glad we didn't get this character as the boss:

Onaga. I thought he was a waste as villain. He was built up to be this ultimate villain only to ve reduced to being killed as a result of being poisoned by Shao Khan. Adding insult to injury, he is defeated a second time by Shujinko. Then he's defeated in Armageddon by Shao Khan.

Yeah I know everybody loving the Sareena assist, Kano also being crazy with knife toss. I've been fukking around with Jax and Stryker seeing what they can do.

Jax is super funky cause gotcha grab just snatches you out of whatever the fukk you're doing, but he sets up some ugly unlockable setups with somebody like Nitara with ground pound.

Stryker throwing the cuffs on you is a recapture so I'm trying to figure out some timing with it to end shyt in a restand.

Where do you check for the level rank to see where you are as far as unlocks? This UI is kinda trash. Missing some huge QOL things. Why did they remove the option to sticky moves in practice?
