Is MK actual witchcraft designed to ensnare faggots and niggers? No heterosexual man has ever played this series, I will not be convinced otherwise at this point and razorfist simping for it only strengthens my assumption.
Depends on your era. From the arcade scene until about 2011, the MK scene was fairly based. The community was like half black and half white, since Asians never really liked MK, and it was a constant back and forth about who was going to beat who's ass and which of the guys you beat in tournament were the biggest faggots.
NRS had been owned by Warner Brothers long enough when MKX came out that the DEI shit started to seep in. The biggest online gathering place at the time for MK casual and pro players was the Test Your Might forums. The owner and head admin is a massive autist and consoomer that bit hard on the gamergate movement, so he took almost every girl, fag, and tranny in the community and promoted them to mod positions. It basically turned TYM's moderation team into the ResetEra crew, but instead of swaying the community to be more woke, everybody that didn't get banned just left and went somewhere else. The website is still a ghost town today, and all the woke mods got bored that there was no one left to control, so they all quit. Now all you have is a hollowed out shell of a website with a small group of people talking to themselves over and over again. I only recognize many 1 or 2 of the former woke mods that are even still part of the FGC today.
NRS also contributed to this trend. After the financial success of MK9, they hired a bunch of their pro players to work as QA and public relations. A handful of the people they hired were woke, and they took one of the recently converted trannies in the community and made him the face of the company. I don't know if he's the head community manager or what, but whenever NRS releases official gameplay that requires discussion, Steve (Stephanie) Brownback is the one narrating. While Ed Boon is a boomer that's probably just going along to get along, the "wokening" of Mortal Kombat from the corporate side mostly came from Warner Brothers.
MKX was also when SonicFox started coming of age. He competed offline in MK9, but he didn't start sweeping tournaments until MKX. For those of you that don't know, SonicFox is an adderall addicted, degenerate, fursuit wearing faggot. He is the zoomer's champion of the entire FGC, as was an almost unstoppable force in numerous games for nearly a decade, and is still an undisputed champion in many games today. He took his virtuoso skills in fighting games and started privately training other players to compete, and all those other players were some degree of faggot. Late MKX/Inj 2/early MK11 had every top 8 being half queer. Combine that with a decline in the quality of gameplay, and a lot of the old heads in the scene just decided to tap out and either leave the scene or start playing other games. By the end of MK11, the MK scene was as dead as it has ever been. Nobody wanted to play the game because it was boring af, and nobody wanted to watch the tournaments because the same 3 weirdos with pride flags draped over them were winning every tournament.
That takes us to today. The release of MK1 coincided with some other events in the MK community that is slowly started to turn things away from social justice and back towards the way it used to be. Most importantly, the vast majority of women and trannies that caused so many problems during the 2010s are just fucking gone. I don't know where they went, but they all fucked off as the community collapsed during MK11, and haven't really made a resurgence yet. TYM is still run by a faggot, but it's completely dead anyways, and the pro players just use X as their main platform now. They no longer have any sway over the competitive scene, and developers no longer care what they think. Turn outs for locals that require VaxMax are in the toilet compared to locals that ignore Covid safeguards. The average age of players at locals has gone from probably 20 to 28, as a lot of the guys that got exiled in the last decade are coming back. I think most of the social authoritarians that ruined the community left because they thought it was dead, but hopefully they don't make a comeback if the community starts to rebuild itself.
TLDR: 1991-2010 the MK community was awesome. 2011-2022 it was hyper gay. 2023+ we're trying to rebuild and it seems a lot less retarded than it was. I'm hopeful going forward.
