Real late to the game on this, so my apologies in advance. I bought MK 11 Ultimate (on sale $8.99). I've been tuned out to MK since they went polygonal, but I really, really liked MKs 1 thru 3.

I bought it mainly as I wanted to give Rambo a spin, and he's pretty badass.

I played thru the first part of the story mode..gotta say I was pretty impressed with the cinematic quality of the whole thing and how smooth the transitions from story to fights were. I skipped the story parts of the Jax/Jacqui section as I'm aware of the Jax ending nonsense and desired to avoid potentially alot more of the same.
There was quite a bit of "girl power" bullshit with Cassie and Jacqui, but nothing too terrible. As a standalone story, overall I was impressed. these games have come a long way... but as a MK story, jesus this shit sure is convoluted. So now the MK universe is now like Marvel and DC with all this multiverse bullshit?... christ.

One thing, I haven't seen pointed out anywhere in the commentary about Jax ending is on the first screen, Raiden is standing behind Jax looking like he's furiously waving his hands at Jaz saying "NO you retard, DON'T!" LOL, I thought that was pretty funny.

The gameplay seems as clunky as ever (being a Street Fighter/Fatal Fury player mostly), but the OTT levels of gore, and the mostly inventive Fatalties are pretty cool. Johnny Cage steals the show in this regard, lol.

I'm glad I bought it (on sale) and the woke bullshit isn't so overwhelming that it turns me off. Is MK 1 worse as far as the woke/sjw nonsense is concerned?
One thing to sum up:
IMG_8241.png
 
LOL, jeez... I suppose it's a good thing I don't own a PS5.
On a technical level, you're not missing out on much.

Kameos that kinda intrude on gameplay, barebones content, preorder fuckery, shitty story mode, meh costumes, shitty monetization, Invasion mode, the game costing 70 dollars.
 
the MK fanbase really love to make Fujin into a heboon and pair just any men together because of their fujoshit fantasies; or wahmen because le LGTV+ representative is needed NRS!
My old man, who I have fond memories playing UMK3 and MKT in the arcades and living room respectfully, laughed and asked confusedly if the franchise I was describing now was the same one with ninjas, gore, and tits.

It's almost amazing how little MK reesembles itself. It trooned out.
 
It's almost amazing how little MK reesembles itself. It trooned out.
And it sold out. Hard. It lost its identity in the process and I suspect MK1 is still floundering in its player numbers.
So NRS have to resort to an endless spam of this.
1719783369616.png

Damn those view counts.

Also yes, I did watch the Invasion trailer just to see if there was something worth making fun of. There's not even that; it's jsut everyone getting a green outfit. Peak nontent.

Side note; I have zero idea who any of these morons are except SonicFox and that's for all the wrong reasons.

And since we're on furries an shit...I was reminded that this exists.
1719783621761.png

Yeah....I...I can now see even more credence to Cena being kinda gross.
 
Off-topic, but which MK designs is your most favorite of all-time? Also, fuck the New Era. Mine is when Raiden lets his hair out and wear like a real samurai, Fujin's Armageddon design, Tanya, Mileena and Kitana's design from MKDA/MKD and MKA because tits for days. Including them are the classical palette swap ninjas, MKDA Kenshi, MKD Havik and the badass nature of Scorpion's MK9. I have a big list, but the bros win the childhood department for me.
Get ready for sapphic girlbosses and trannies galore await for us, it is going to be haram. Inshallah.

I am a fag for the MK9 looks. Pure nostalgia. But I will agree that Raiden with his hair out though is unique and cool and should be appreciated more even if I am a sucker for his hat. Armageddon Rain is also really lovely. Idk, it really just really vibed with me. I blame that for those Prick of Persia vibes. His design in MKX was also really lovely.

Now, while I prefer his MK9 look, I do have a soft spot for Stryker's Armageddon design.

A nice window to a better time to look back at considering the current bullshit currently waiting for us.

Also fuck the fans that are justifying this shit. "IT'S A NEW ERA, THEY CAN DO WHATVER THEY WANT. IT'S MORE INCLUSIVE AND MORE DIVERSE. YOU'RE JUST A WHITE CIS MALE WHO HATES WOMEN AND INCLUSIVITY! THIS NEW ERA IS THE BEST MORTAL KOMBAT HAS EVER BEEN. FUCK YOU! FUJIN AS A GIRL IS GONNA BE SO COOL. SHE CAN HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH KUNG LAO!! OMG KAWAI!!"

Please kill yourself. Also no, I will not let the Fujin thing go. It's so astronomically shitty considering he's been gone for over ten years, he gets one hurrah and NRS pays back the fans by dismembering him. Considering there's a bunch of other gods, (Suijin, Dojin, etc.) who have not appeared in the game, the Fujin bit makes me MATI. And I like him a lot.

This makes me hat-worthy but I really want these fucking tots to get cut off from all internet access and then forced to touch some grass in the Alps for at least sixty days so they can shut the fuck up and stop frothing at everyone not slobbering over NRS' NetherCock.

Character Design wise I love MK9. Boobs and butts aside the guys in 9 look amazing. Cyraxx nailed the " cool, styling black guy " before game companies gave up and gave every black guy the soundcloud haircut. Scorpion's best design, peak Ermac, Kung Lao didn't look like a nerd, Smoke's beautiful hair. World design wise even though I haven't played it, DA I think is the best in terms of gloomy/dark/edgy setting that this series needs to go back to but I know it won't.

Ermac's MK9 alternate gear is my absolute favorite design. The primary looks in the later games feel like poor imitations of it. Reptile's look in Shaolin Monks was nice combination of his early ninja and later Saurian appearances. I also like Kitana's UMK3, SM, and MK9 designs along with Sonya's MK, UMK3, and both of her MK9 designs.

My personal favorite designs are Ermac and Sub-zero in Deception.
1000005433.jpgDeception Subzero.jpg
I also really like Sonya's outfits in the original trilogy, even if they are just basic gym wear.

Flesh Pits Mileena is the only right answer
The MK9 classic ninja skins are easily the best despite being so simple.

MKX Quan Chi's hits this nice sweet spot between his original teal robes and his 3d era shirtless look for me, but more importantly he doesn't look like squidward.

I say this due to a fair amount of nostalgia, as well as putting the unfairness in spotlight. But MK Mobile had some great exclusive skins. Some of my personal favorites being:
Elder God Kenshi
1000032589.png
1000032591.jpg
Spec Ops/Strike Force, or as I call him now, Mall Ninja Scorpion.
1000032585.png
1000032590.jpg
The Day of the Dead exclusives had Kitana, Jade, & my personal favourite skin of Erron Black in the series
1000032594.jpg
1000032593.jpg
1000032599.jpg
We'll probably never get these in the main games cause some LatinX faggots will start dilating & screeching "cultural appropriation".

There was also a Kold War exclusive line too.
1000032643.png
1000032642.png
1000032641.png
1000032645.png
There was once a time when you could even unlock some exclusive skins in MKX through the mobile games console link. There was even an exploit which removed the need for the mobile app to get the skins.

Ninja Mime Johnny Cage, which later came back for MK11
1000032600.jpg
Farmer Jax from the MKX cutscene, if you paint him yellow, you can imagine fighting city slickers with this guy.
1000032605.png
1000032604.jpg
Cybernetic Jacqui
1000032602.jpg
Undercover Cassie
1000032601.jpg

Later for MK11 release we got the best male design in MKX, now at it's peak design. Black Dragon Tremor:
1000032597.png
1000032596.jpg
They gave the best design to one of the best MKX designs. I love MKX Tremor & I wish this how he is always adapted since MKX onwards.

Ironically, some of the ugliest skins also came out of this game. Some examples being:

Punk Rock Cassie Cage
1000032644.png
1000032606.jpg

The Kombat Cup Pack, which led to, Man-bun Johnny Cage, Karen bull-dyke Cassie, & an ugly Sonya with a neat hairdo
1000032609.png
1000032608.png
1000032607.png

Now for that unfairness, as many know that MK11 butchered a lot of lore, one of which being Skarlet's lore about her blood absorption, retconned into some blood mage, all just to put her in a leather burkha with exposed feet (the character designer for MK11 is a massive footfag). This philosophy of theirs had the integrity of a wet tissue, considering they later made Sindel hot anyway, except NRS fucked that by making her into a power-digging cunt, & by proxy making it look like they're sending a message that "sexy = evil".

What many don't know is that the mobile game got a great skin for Skarlet, called Assassin Skarlet.
1000032612.jpg
1000032614.png
I'm not saying it's a the best Skarlet skin of all time, even if it is best Skarlet skin post-MK9, her hair still looks wacky to me, & I still prefer MK9 version over it just for that alone (I liked her ponytail) But if there's one skin that deserves to be in the main game, it's this one.
Some other games:
Armageddon has this legendary playboy Mileena
1000032629.jpg
I love how they made the hotter version's mask longer. It's great symbology of what happens to the man who sees this Mileena.

Deception had my favourite female designs with probably the best Mileena outfit.
1000032618.jpg
Followed by Jade.
1000032630.jpg
Best Jade design to this day, I don't know why but her hairstyle is cute to me. We also got this legend out of it too.
Li Mei
1000032621.png
Who they later goyslopped for MK11. Seriously, what's the point of a "throwback" nostalgiabait outfit if you're censoring it to hell?
1000032622.png
Ashrah also looked great too, more tiddy on the Alt outfit.
View attachment 1000032623.jpg
Which got turned into this...
1000032624.png
Putting aside the uglification, why remove the hat? It's the most memorable part of the design, if not the character. She looks bland without it. It's like removing Raiden's hat.
Almost all MK9 designs looked great, but MKX had some great designs honestly, despite the T&A nerfs & faces looking a bit weird. It has the best Mileena face to this day (the tooth-tards can fatality themselves, they are fetishizers, while cope & seething, & calling anyone who likes this a "coomer") & her outfit & hair looked cool, her Khanum outfit reminded me of MKD Mileena.
1000032625.png
1000032620.jpg
We can achieve Peak Mileena just by combining MK9 & MKX
1000032626.png
MKX Revenant designs look cool as fuck too.
1000032631.jpg

PC players were fucked again, because you can only play them on MK Mobile, unless you had skin mods. I personally prefer the MK Mobile version of Kitana a bit more tho. It's got some great Maleficent vibes.
1000032632.png
Same with others like Dark Raiden, Liu Kang, & Jax.
1000032637.png

1000032633.jpg

The only issue with this Raiden was is that he didn't have red lightning.
1000032638.png

1000032640.png

1000032646.png
Other games, I would say the Injustice Scorpion is my favourite Scorpion design.
1000032617.png
It might be a bit on the nose for some, but somehow it resembling an actual Scorpion is kino to me. The concept design is even more on the nose, but I wish we got that.

Off-topic again (MK artfagging), but here are some of my fanarts of MK characters, mostly Raiden and Fujin.

ld.pngYou know.

chudden and soyjinta.pngraichud.png chvds
raiden5.png Old art.
For some reason, I find converting some parts of Raiden and Fujin's hair at the center into huge ahoges was fun and make it lighthearted by bias.
Sorry if I drew men too feminine, and in an anime style. I am not overly used to drawing men in said style yet, but hopefully I can improve. I am not a faggot.
>SonicFox
"It's like puking on a pile of shit!" - AVGN
SonicFox is a nigger, a furfag; him and the Westoid side of the FGC ruins absolutely everything instantly. Also, the low views for the tournaments gave me a guffaw :story:
I am a fag for the MK9 looks. Pure nostalgia. But I will agree that Raiden with his hair out though is unique and cool and should be appreciated more even if I am a sucker for his hat. Armageddon Rain is also really lovely. Idk, it really just really vibed with me. I blame that for those Prick of Persia vibes. His design in MKX was also really lovely.
Raiden's most iconic things are his glowing eyes, cowl, white hair and ajirogasa (mouth beauty mark in my opinion); never miss these details for Raiden if you are trying to cosplay or draw him. Rain is better if he is not a Poojeet like MK1 did, I prefer if he looks more Persian much like his base inspiration. MK11 has those Persian-ish details that should match Edenia's general theme, but he is still an ugly nigger faggot with a nasal voice, so I concur with you for Rain's best designs.
Now, while I prefer his MK9 look, I do have a soft spot for Stryker's Armageddon design.
The SWAT alt skin is badass, even for a goofy-looking police officer like Stryker.
Also fuck the fans that are justifying this shit. "IT'S A NEW ERA, THEY CAN DO WHATVER THEY WANT. IT'S MORE INCLUSIVE AND MORE DIVERSE. YOU'RE JUST A WHITE CIS MALE WHO HATES WOMEN AND INCLUSIVITY! THIS NEW ERA IS THE BEST MORTAL KOMBAT HAS EVER BEEN. FUCK YOU! FUJIN AS A GIRL IS GONNA BE SO COOL. SHE CAN HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH KUNG LAO!! OMG KAWAI!!"
The world revolves around girlbossing and dykes nowadays. By logic, women strong and good, men bad and should be sissified to be our slaves. Try to explain us if a girl tries to arm wrestle a guy, boxing a guy, or any other things men can do? You girly fuckers all have a huge disadvantage in reality, and are no more than sissy cowards that only barks and no bite and cannot even win against 10 taller and stronger men. Tip me some fedoras for being MATI, but this shit is leftoid propaganda and hailed from the worst women ever existed that follows twisted beliefs nobody should even try to listen to, or porn addiction.
Please kill yourself. Also no, I will not let the Fujin thing go. It's so astronomically shitty considering he's been gone for over ten years, he gets one hurrah and NRS pays back the fans by dismembering him. Considering there's a bunch of other gods, (Suijin, Dojin, etc.) who have not appeared in the game, the Fujin bit makes me MATI. And I like him a lot.
Say hi to Meat, Moloch, Jarek, Kobra, Jataaka, Kia and the list goes on. Fujin would be sissified by NRS to be a girlboss instead of being in his prime. I like his new voice a lot, he sounds quite soothing, but not the fucking bullshit of NRS trying to troon out certain male characters for DEI and ESG points.
This makes me hat-worthy but I really want these fucking tots to get cut off from all internet access and then forced to touch some grass in the Alps for at least sixty days so they can shut the fuck up and stop frothing at everyone not slobbering over NRS' NetherCock.
Too bad they would not care, they just want to nag as much as possible like a group of retarded dwarves.
My personal favorite designs are Ermac and Sub-zero in Deception.
View attachment 6144521View attachment 6145396
They are really badass, pleasant to look and simple at the same time; I really like Sub-Zero's crown-like headwear; but not his alternate skin.
I also really like Sonya's outfits in the original trilogy, even if they are just basic gym wear.
View attachment 6145391
I also really like the palette swap kunoichi's designs in the original trilogy as well, they brought me nostalgia a lot.
Flesh Pits Mileena is the only right answer
Quite a unique taste, the feminazis and leftoids might fume over fat tits and asses, and revealing clothing. Most barely even grasp on older games, only newer ones because they are newfags that recently play MK1 like babies being introduced to YT Kids, similar to MK11 as well.
The MK9 classic ninja skins are easily the best despite being so simple.
I love the nostalgia it brought since the very first MK in 1992. Even MK2 and MK3 all brought memories to me when fighting between Scorpion or Sub-Zero with a friend of mine.
MKX Quan Chi's hits this nice sweet spot between his original teal robes and his 3d era shirtless look for me, but more importantly he doesn't look like squidward.
MK1 fucks that up seriously bad, especially they even retcon him to have Pajeet skin before being whiten by some kind of necromancy bullshit the talentless hacks of NRS tries to "explain" to us.
3D era to MKX all have the best designs (few for MK11), fuck MK11 and MK1.

Probably an unpopular opinion but I like Reptile's full reptile design from Deadly Alliance. I also really like Ermac's Deception design. Mileena's Deception design too. Shao Khan has always been perfect from the beginning. Noob Saibot and Smoke in Deception are great. Original Scorpion and Sub-Zero are always great too.
 
Sub-zero in Deception.
Oh I forgot about Subby in Deception. Ugh that design was so badass.

Also I have a soft spot for Li Mei's look in Deadly Alliance.
1719954337848.png

Booba aside, I think it's a very nice streamlined design. Easy on the eyes and the patterns are lovely.
For some reason, I find converting some parts of Raiden and Fujin's hair at the center into huge ahoges was fun and make it lighthearted by bias.
Sorry if I drew men too feminine, and in an anime style. I am not overly used to drawing men in said style yet, but hopefully I can improve. I am not a faggot.
If anything you got my seal of approval. I need to stalk your posts more so I can see more of your art.
like his new voice a lot, he sounds quite soothing,
Troy Baker did fuck all with him compared with Matthew Yang King. The soothe is a nice contrast compared to Raiden which was probably the point but I think it works well. Made me like him very much. Sorry, Raiden. I'll pick your brother over you. You may cry to the Elder Gods.

Also his design is great!

Fujin, you be forgiven for the bullshit you pulled in Mythologies.

Side note; King also voices Liu Kang in 11 which completely crossed over my fat dome until I picked up on the two of them sharing voice screams and I looked it up and was like "Oh!"
Too bad they would not care, they just want to nag as much as possible like a group of retarded dwarves.
They can nag at the bears in the Alps before getting mauled. Considering the new TikTok trend of people saying they'd rather be stuck in the forest with a bear than a man, I just want to help a faggot out.

It's my job as a fellow forest critter.
