Ngl I skipped some cut scenes.
Mortal Kombat 1 (Reboot) 9.21.23, PS5/Xbox Series/Switch/PC

Pretty much where I'm at with the game. At this rate, Towers of Time>>> Invasions Mode. It is essentially the same concept without the map and cheesy ambush and secret fights. They could've made the secret fights worthwhile, if they were actually secret fights like the old MK games. For example, Jade was a secret fight in MK2. I think Smoke and Noob were too. They weren't playable, but those were dope hidden fights.
The regular towers could use some creativity too. I mean, they revived the Deadly Alliance, why not rotate the deadly alliance as boss characters. And boss characters are kind of supposed to be OP. They could've made them more of a challenge. What happened to sub bosses? It's a lot they could've done with regular Shang Tsung or regular Havik or even General Shao in that regard.
Secret Characters- too much focus on DLC and secret characters have been largely ignored. Not saying do away with DLC, but instead of putting chracters in a Kombat Pack, why not have players unlock secret characters in various modes of the game. How dope would it be to unlock a Jax or a Sonya?

The character towers at least let you know what you were getting. Also stuff like test your might should be a mode outside of invasions. I still like the game, but this is the fastest I've ever stopped playing an MK game.
Every fighting game tournament works like this
It's a nod to fighting game arcade cabinets letting the winner stay on the sticks
I think I'm gonna main Liu Kang.
Who was your main before Liu Kang when MK1 dropped?
Johnny. I played him to death. Them taking his Force ball fukked me up.
Yeah, I don't know why they taking his force ball but again in the timeline, he probably didn't know how to use it or haven't learned it yet until years later, probably on new MK2
Either way I'm probably gonna main Liu Kang or Scorpion. Leaning more toward Liu, tried Geras but he's a little too slow for me
If you're looking for more a zoner, Sindel may be up your alley
They took it away because he would be absolutely broken if he had it. He’s already the consensus #1 best fighter
Kang is way better at zoning than her especially paired with Kung Lao
It's still weird seeing Liu Kang as a zoner, I'm so used to him being rushdown except for Duelist in MKX
He’s always had good fireballs that cover the whole screen. They kinda just OD it in this game with those and the whole dragon fire thing. He’s a nightmare to deal with since most people play him lame af cause he really doesn’t have any true mixups that’s safe
My gripes
Ex moves look the same as regular specials.
Movement isn't big enough
Fatalities are a little uninspired. Midtalities.
The whole roster seem like friends minus Shang and scrub zero
