After a solid few days of playing Mortal Kombat 1, Max feels he has gotten enough time with the game to form an opinion on its quality.

Also, a big critique of mine is that I wish they had individual ranking systems per character, Like street fighter 6/ TEKKEN. They’ll be times where you’re trying to learn a new character and then you go online but because you’re not starting from the low rank people will literally obliterate you lol
It’s good that Max is enjoying this game. Better, you could tell when he would play MK11 He was just doing it to do it.
Invasions is a godsend for someone like me who doesn't play online in the Kombat League, I can finally earn cool looking gear for my characters without having to deal with extremely sweaty players online. It definitely turns into a grind, I got my smoke to level 31, but had to put it down for a few days to recharge lol.
Never understood why the lobbies they had in MKX never came back or were never adopted by another game. I absolutely loved it, was super clear and easy to navigate and understand and didn’t complicate anything plus it was just always fun, there were familiar names alot of the time and people knew one another certain players had certain reputations in different lobbies and factions it was overall just a great community style lobby situation and was so much fun
My peeves:
The game is good, the gameplay is fun, however, there's still a lot of things they should change. Invasions should let you TP to any node you want, also, give an over the shoulder camera angle. Let us make presets for skins, is very annoying to have to go back to the kustomization menu to change the skin, and maybe add more gear
the best part is that the game rewards you with unlockables for the characters you play the most and even then you do sometimes randomly unlock gear and brutalities for other characters as well just by playing the game
As a solo player who hates playing online, I love Invasion and absolutely hated mk11 towers, Endless grinding towers and having to go to work and fomo kicking in of what gear I was gonna miss for characters I played sucked and that with the unfun combat killed mk11 for me personally, so I'm glad they added a solo player experience in the game for dads like me who can't play all damn day waiting for that 1 piece of loot to drop
Story mode is so wholesome. Its a nice feeling.
honestly my biggest issue with the game is the story mode. Im just sick of NRS's movie game weak story modes. Its just watching a c-tier marvel movie that lasts too long rather the playing a real game.
This game is so gorgeous. Love the graphics. The character and level designs are chef’s kiss!
I’m so happy that there’s a distinct way to unlock content for the character you decide to play as. Between the character mastery and the seasonal store it’s amazing to finally be able to choose what I’m unlocking and for who.
i’m definitely gonna be playing this more than MK 11, mk1 may have problems, but as long I have fun, that’s all that matters to me
Feels like less content but at the same time you could tell a lot of work went into the gameplay it self and acknowledging that at the end of the day it’s a fighting game, makes me feel not so bad about it
Fun fact : the endings of each character in the tower mode are all cannon for first time , so you have to do tower mode with each
I've never been good at fighting games, but this is somehow so approachable to someone bad like me, while still giving the chance to go absolutely nuts with it. I've actually started figuring out combos myself, thats insane.
something these games have done for years that i always strongly dislike, is the RNG nature of getting gear for characters. If i play only one character for 20 hours and %90 of the drops i get are for other characters then i feel like i am not progressing with my chosen fighter and it is often frustrating. I feel like anything you do in game that has an RNG component should only randomize the potential drops for that specific character, to incentivize you to continue grinding at least. instead of pulling from a massive pool of gear for characters you may likely never end up playing very much.
My thoughts:
I need a "One Month Later" video from Max
The amount of creativity you can put behind your main and kameo is nuts
