Netherrealm Studios are masters at facial animation technology. Damn, when Sonya said "I'm not your Sonya, Cage." you could see the look of sadness on Johnny's face. We've come a hell of a long way from the stilted, flat, emotionless faces of MK Gold.
One of the best things about Mortal Kombat 9 and onward is the relationship of Kung Lao and Raiden. I LOVE what they did with the characters and their dynamic.
Yeah. You see the same relationship from mk9 - with Lui kang's blind loyalty while Kung Lao questions raiden at every point based on their future. Even just that one expressoin from Kung Lao really sells it
Thank! You! I have always been in the minority with opinion on thinking Netherrealm Kung Lao is an improvement over the version in Midway Games. Netherrealm Kung Lao may have a lot more ego, but he acts like a real person and not a generic monk stereotype. Also, despite clearly feeling some type of way with Liu Kang being the "Chosen One," what did Kung Lao di when Liu Kang defeated Shang Tsung in MK9? _Immediately congratulate his friend and feel proud of him._ Basically what I'm saying is, there's room for Kung Lao to want to make his own story, but still support his partner when he succeeds.
There are some major Shaolin Monks references. Liu Kang and Kung Lao sparring as Raiden teleports in. D'Vorah opening the portal and all the villains are running through it. Liu Kang and Kung Lao's good ol' witty banter... We really need Shaolin Monks 2. Like now.
Dark Zero MK 11 does it super well. Immersive story telling that blends seamlessly with fights, rather than unrelated snippets featuring match ups for no reason. And you know, also having the story be part of the actual game and not a download add-on.
When I recently played through this chapter, I was so relieved to experience these legacy characters as they once were - The Good Guys. With a little added character and charm too, man....its great to see them again!!!
Yeah I know right? I thought its gonna be maybe a clusterfuck trying to merge MK1-3 with MK9-10 but they did a great job combined them. We got what we wanted. See all the MK1-3 characters with real personalities and amazing looking graphics and we still got the MK9-11 characters alongside them displaying what happened before and after the 25 year time skip. I never liked the revenant bit too much, felt weird how everyone is an undead now except the Cages and Briggs’ but with this timeline merge we got to see the missed earthrealm champions we wanted to see with the new gen tech netherrealm possesses now. I dont think kronika is a good villain but besides that I loved the story mode
22:35 is literally a call back to a Shaolin Monks cutscene, Kung and Liu sparring when Raiden teleports in, this story mode has been pretty dope so far.
I swear, those last lines from Raiden had the most perfectly cheesy moments of dramatic pauses and emphasis I have ever seen in a video game. The last pause is the perfect length to make me start expecting the credits to start rolling on an episode of a TV show or something... * outro rolls * *BY THE ELDER GODS*
Kang and Lao: We are the ultimate team! *both brofist with epic exploding dragon at the background* Scorpion and Sub-Zero: *hands Liu Kang and Kung Lao their beers*
When I was playing this part of the story; I was thinking the same thing and wished that they would make a new Shaolin Monks game, using these graphics.
17:10 "First dude to survive a Fatality" Ummm, MK4 Baraka?! He was literally stapled together after being sliced in half by Kung Lao (I guess Kung Lao is really bad at canonically killing people)
@@gildarmesh3809 hes talking about the ps2 game not this one. The ps2 game is called shialon monks a coop adventure game starring lui kang and kung lao. It's part of the mortal kombat story hence the title of this chapter they played. Also in that game since it was a dungeon beat em up style game. You could use fatalities on almost any enemy but with only 2 to 4 playable characters they had to get super creative last time i played lui kang had a whole page of unlockable fatalities same with kung lao. Check it out. You'll love it.
he was always respected just that until this game he has been extremely simplistic so the fact that the team wanted to make him more complex for more dedicated players may have led them to ... "questionable" choices for what they decided to give him. so now while keeping simplicity he has so many layers of good things- reflect, counter, pop up, great mix up, fast pace and meter burnable solid moves. he has the simplicity to pick up for newcomers as well as the complexity and "goodstuffs" to be top tier at the same time
Considering he has been the defacto Tournament winner from MK 1 to Deadly Alliance IE The Main Kharacter. It has taken long enough for Boon to put aside his Scorpion fetish and remember that.
gildarmesh my thing is if you have been watching their video rankings he always give Liu kang a 5/10 outside of fatalities and now he is cool because he got some sick pop ups lol
Same with Revenant Jade. Both Kung Lao and Liu Kang technically succeeded, until Shao Kahn essentially threw a hissy fit and cheated once things weren't going his way at the official tournament, and the one he forced Earthrealm into.
I don't blame Kung Lao for being worried about trusting Raiden. I mean if I was told my mentor played a part in my death I be very cautious about trusting him as well.
Betting Boon did that on purpose. Liu Kang shows off, so people expect Kung Lao to teleport or something equally awesome...then he just breaks the trap.
How Kronika can easily win against the good guys... Step One: Freeze time. Keep it that way. Step Two: Do bad guy stuff. Step Three: ??? Step Four: Profit! And the realization that time-warping antagonists completely underutilize their powers.
It'd be one thing if it was on a time limit like DIO in Jojo's Bizzare Adventure but as far as I am aware, she can just freeze time and allow specific people to freely move during it so literally she could just get the Jinsei in literally no time at all.
This is a perfect excuse for them to do a remake of MK Shaolin Monks on PS4, X1, and Switch. Oh and why not a PS4 disc release of MK9 and a PS4, X1, and Switch collection of MK1, MK2, MK3, UMK3, and MKT?
Really wish they did some some spin off called like MK origin or MK0 where the first MK took place with Great Kung Lao and many other characters that died long ago in the first Tournament, for some reason i think Erron Black would've been there
In chapters like this, I switched between them each match. But I was kind of peeved when after the Sub/Scorp chapter there was a whole Scorpion chapter. If I knew that, I’d have just used Sub.
I played MK11 for about 6 hours straight once I got out of school yesterday, finished story mode (It’s really good) and I played about 25 matches against my friend (I main Jade, he mains Liu and Frost.) This is EASILY my favorite MK game ever, fun gameplay, great graphics, customization, everything a MK fan could want honestly...besides not having some fan favorite characters in the roster. And speaking of a Shaolin Monks sequel...TAKE MY MONEY RIGHT NOW! 😂 I loved that game growing up.
They easily surpass what they did with MKX story. I still want Mileena (she's my favorite character in MK, but I'm sure she will be back as a DLC),but I have Kotal Kahn and Liu Kang,and I'll Definetely use Kitana. Unfortunatly, i'll get the game the 26th, but I can wait🙃
11:09 Given this line, it'd be cool if the ending of this story mode ends like the X-men Days of Future Past movie did, with Raiden experiencing the restored future like Wolverine.
i almost thought Liu Kang was gonna stop by that dead monk on the stairs and ask "are you ok?" why do the Fatal Blows make everything black-and-white, BTW?
Shao Kahn: have you ever seen avatar the last airbender? Solider: ya why? Shao Khan: because we air gonna do what the fire nation did and kill all the monks at this temple
Nero Mauritzen they promised? I didnt know. but more than anything the elder gods are so boring considering their insane power in the mk universe. in greek mythology based lore and games you got gods turning on each other, messing around and challenging the living or half gods with their own agendas, motives and emotions and in mk the elder gods just chill on their throne doing nothing for centuries. but I guess that makes it more “realistic” what gods would logically do as creators of life but its no fun in a video game or movie if they are so goddamn (no pun intended) passive.
@@yopeepthestyle8308 Uh... You told me that they promised at you`re first comment though... And yeah I agree with you, for some reason I always found the MK Gods to be dull in particular, I mean both Fujin and Raiden have the personalities of cardboar... I mean kardboard. (Of course)
I'm going to guess that as "a fixed point in time" Geras means something like existing in any and every given point in time, simultaneously. As such, if he dies he can just pull himself back together from any point in any past or future. I'm probably wrong, but I'm just guessing.
I was never really a _massive_ Sektor fan, but _god damn._ That Sektor redesign makes me wanna see him lead the Tekunin in HD, ideally for longer than the tiny amount of time we saw him do so in Armageddon.
"An overhead that's a pop-up and a low that's a pop up!? What were they thinking?!" weeeelll they were thinking that would be OP, which is why the "overhead" is actually a High, and the "low" is actually a Mid. Believe me, I thought that was pretty ridiculous at first too until I realized the truth. Not to say that his mix-ups aren't dope as shit as is; Liu Kang's Shaolin Stance is almost Necessary for overhead pressure on his strings, because none of his strings actually have overhead properties. Only low starter that he can confirm into is Back 3, 4 too, which kind of sucks, but the upside is F3 is safe and F2 has some ridiculous properties mid combo to it.
All the chocies you guys made is exactly the same way I went with last night on stream! :D I wonder If others may the same choices between Kang and Lao as well.
I'm pretty sure most people did, although I think picking the order of Lao, Kang, Kang, Lao is the best in terms of narrative. Kung Lao vs. Scorpion has Lao referencing how he lost to Scorpion back in the MK9 tournament before winning this rematch to redeem himself, and having Liu Kang fight Jade was more fitting since it was him she was talking to and trying to convince about Raiden's betrayal. Liu Kang vs. Revenant Liu Kang and Kung Lao vs. Geras were great match-ups though.
Here's a fun simple Liu Kang kombo I found while playing the story (substitute A for X if you are on PS4)... Forward + A, A, A, A (his multiple kick thingy) - - -> Bicycle Kick and amp it twice for a 20 hit kombo.
16:56:
Kung Lao: that was easy.
Geras: *It's rewind time*

Ahhhhh thats hot
I just imagine Geras saying it🤣

Liu Kang can shoot fire from his hands, but it's Kung Lao who DELIVERED THE BURN.
Fantastically worded! XD

Damn, when Sonya said "I'm not your Sonya, Cage." you could see the look of sadness on Johnny's face.

He first reacted when she said "Cage" Sonya didn't call him that anymore.
That dab from scorpion tho
6:19
he dabbed on the shaolin haters
He dab out of there, like a true ninja.
Only in the infernal pits of the netherrealm could such a movement be practiced by warriors
Glad I'm not the only one that caught that.
A sacred maneuver, passed down from the Elder Gods themselves
13:04 - I actually immediately recognized on first glance that was actually Liu Kang's Dragon Sword from MK4
oh wow, they really went out of their way to reference everything from old games lol
Word dude my fav one ! Dragon sword forever
The fact that you can meter burn Liu Kang's bicycle kick TWICE is fantastic

He was like "fuck so I was about to die before coming here"
If only that he said it was snap twice I would like to see the look on his face then 😂😂
Finally some Liu Kang respect! lmfao
he was always respected just that until this game he has been extremely simplistic so the fact that the team wanted to make him more complex for more dedicated players may have led them to ... "questionable" choices for what they decided to give him. so now while keeping simplicity he has so many layers of good things- reflect, counter, pop up, great mix up, fast pace and meter burnable solid moves. he has the simplicity to pick up for newcomers as well as the complexity and "goodstuffs" to be top tier at the same time
Considering he has been the defacto Tournament winner from MK 1 to Deadly Alliance IE The Main Kharacter. It has taken long enough for Boon to put aside his Scorpion fetish and remember that.

@@pious83 Kang being the winner also make him a bland protagonist, kang only good role was when he become evil and now see that playing up.
I'm stoned and ready
I like how revenant Kung Lao is just wrong but Liu Kang is actively lying
Man, Raiden actively teamed up with Shao Khan and murdered Liu Kang. Isn't that crazy?
Same with Revenant Jade. Both Kung Lao and Liu Kang technically succeeded, until Shao Kahn essentially threw a hissy fit and cheated once things weren't going his way at the official tournament, and the one he forced Earthrealm into.
This story is so good I'm just here to discuss with you guys of what's happening when you guys do the parts
Geras is a monster! His fighting style is just so beefy. A bit of wrestling and brawling and the character's got a lot of charm! He's won me over.
FRICK dude lol I need two of these a day lol I would honestly rather watch you guys and it be an event than play it by myself. This is awesome!
Good lord Kung Lao looks amazing in this game.
*I definitely want a sequel to Shaolin Monks after finishing the story mode. Ed Boon please make it happen!*
Still a crime that Sektor gets SUCH a good design only for him to be delegated to an NPC and a fucking Konsumable.
Damnit NRS.
"Liu Kang got cool somehow"
Never seen a NinjaKilla212 gameplay i suppose
6:18 Did Scorpion just dab. He should be ashamed
its 90s scorpion so he kind of did it before it was cool, not knowing is not cool now? so is scorpion technically a hipster?
I don't blame Kung Lao for being worried about trusting Raiden.
I mean if I was told my mentor played a part in my death I be very cautious about trusting him as well.
Kung Lao has always been both untrusting and jealous. He wants so badly to be the Chosen One.
Not to mention he was few minutes from getting his neck snapped when they got teleported to the future.
I'm waiting for the part in the story where Raiden just turns into Cell from DBZA "I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS!!" His face when he heard Scorpion's name
When Kung Lao destroys the trap the sheer disappointment with them was hilarious
Betting Boon did that on purpose. Liu Kang shows off, so people expect Kung Lao to teleport or something equally awesome...then he just breaks the trap.
How Kronika can easily win against the good guys...
Step One: Freeze time. Keep it that way.
Step Two: Do bad guy stuff.
Step Three: ???
Step Four: Profit! And the realization that time-warping antagonists completely underutilize their powers.
It'd be one thing if it was on a time limit like DIO in Jojo's Bizzare Adventure but as far as I am aware, she can just freeze time and allow specific people to freely move during it so literally she could just get the Jinsei in literally no time at all.
I really hope these character designs stick for future installments. They really knocked it out of the ball park with them.
This is a perfect excuse for them to do a remake of MK Shaolin Monks on PS4, X1, and Switch.
Oh and why not a PS4 disc release of MK9 and a PS4, X1, and Switch collection of MK1, MK2, MK3, UMK3, and MKT?
Because time and money
I’m surprised MK9 isn’t backwards compatible
Unfortunately according gameinformer it's complicated for for them remake shaolin monks
@Falcom Scott Right? If they did all of that, it would literally print money.
@@zippolighter4903 Well maybe it's because they plan on doing a disc port of MK9 to PS4 and X1 soon?
I'm _loving_ Kung Lao in this!
scorpion said "hol up lemme go grab my friend" and came back with Jade to try again lol
Imagine if Kung Lao fought Revinant Lu Kang and in the end Kung Lao ends it off with “who’s the chosen one now Lu Kang?” 😂
“I, Geras, am a fixed point in time”
Proceeds to explain how he’s not a fixed point in time, by growing stronger every time he dies.
Really wish they did some some spin off called like MK origin or MK0 where the first MK took place with Great Kung Lao and many other characters that died long ago in the first Tournament, for some reason i think Erron Black would've been there
Conquest tried that and it was a wreck. Would love to see another attempt.
The Great Kung Lao wasn't the first tournament. He stopped Tsung from winning 10 tournaments therefore saving Earthrealm.
Scorpio dabbed out of there.
Best explanation for a Mirror Match ever!
In chapters like this, I switched between them each match. But I was kind of peeved when after the Sub/Scorp chapter there was a whole Scorpion chapter. If I knew that, I’d have just used Sub.
Man, watching these parts I am like that Dave Chappelle meme. Do you have more of that story?!
I played MK11 for about 6 hours straight once I got out of school yesterday, finished story mode (It’s really good) and I played about 25 matches against my friend (I main Jade, he mains Liu and Frost.)

Unfortunatly, i'll get the game the 26th, but I can wait🙃
Seiryu I really want Mileena and Nightwolf to return, maybe Takeda and Kung Jin too. Currently maining Jade, and I’m learning Kung Lao and Cassie
11:09 Given this line, it'd be cool if the ending of this story mode ends like the X-men Days of Future Past movie did, with Raiden experiencing the restored future like Wolverine.
MK 11 is the only fighting game that made mirror matches literally story canon.

I'm going to guess that as "a fixed point in time" Geras means something like existing in any and every given point in time, simultaneously. As such, if he dies he can just pull himself back together from any point in any past or future. I'm probably wrong, but I'm just guessing.

Only low starter that he can confirm into is Back 3, 4 too, which kind of sucks, but the upside is F3 is safe and F2 has some ridiculous properties mid combo to it.
20:44 well since no else did it yet

6:19 can we talk about how Scorpion dabbed at Liu Kang and Kung Lao before he peaced out?
All the chocies you guys made is exactly the same way I went with last night on stream! :D I wonder If others may the same choices between Kang and Lao as well.
I'm pretty sure most people did, although I think picking the order of Lao, Kang, Kang, Lao is the best in terms of narrative. Kung Lao vs. Scorpion has Lao referencing how he lost to Scorpion back in the MK9 tournament before winning this rematch to redeem himself, and having Liu Kang fight Jade was more fitting since it was him she was talking to and trying to convince about Raiden's betrayal. Liu Kang vs. Revenant Liu Kang and Kung Lao vs. Geras were great match-ups though.
Here's a fun simple Liu Kang kombo I found while playing the story (substitute A for X if you are on PS4)...
Forward + A, A, A, A (his multiple kick thingy) - - -> Bicycle Kick and amp it twice for a 20 hit kombo.
