  • It's finally time, the next MK game on our list. Mortal Kombat Armageddon. The MK Trilogy of the 3D Era and a game that I think gets a bad rap, so we're gonna play though it and see for ourselves how the game still holds up!

    "Mortal Kombat Armageddon Was a Mistake" is FINALLY here! The game is divisive in the fanbase for its shoddy fatalities, broken kreate a kharacter mode, but I remembered having a good time with Konquest so we're here to check it out and see if it holds up! Also, ____ Was a Mistake is just becoming my playthrough series and I'm aiming to make it a WEEKLY series so can you guys guess what's next? Hint. Taking a break from MK story modes next week 👀

    Armageddon Konquest was neat for being a completely different game but it always bugged me from a lore perspective as Deception's Konquest hinted at The One Being being the next villain but then every plotline introduced in Deception was rendered irrelevant to a complete asspull of a doomsday prophecy for a Gary Sue who spends the majority of the story mode being led around with no agency...

  • @SirKobrias
    @SirKobrias 6 місяців тому +1

    What's interesting looking back, There is this whole other story going on outside of Taven's perspective that he is unaware is going on the whole time, you play literally as the background character who doesn't know what's going on. You can put some pieces together some of what's actually going on for the other heroic characters, but Taven is usually witnessing part of their story arc for a couple seconds or getting into a fight with them. Li Mei actually had quite a journey over the three games, I did not remember her actually beating Shinnok there! And Taven just jumps in to help Shinnok because he's unaware that Shinnok is evil. I'm pretty sure Raiden actually did kill Shujinko before he could take out the bad guys, it would be so cool to see him actually pop off against the Deadly Alliance 2.0. Too bad. But yes, Taven is literally the guy in the background who ultimately doesn't achieve anything because the gets killed by Blaze and Shao Kahn is the won who took the prize.

    I still find it crazy that my mother named me after Taven. She just watched my father play games and when she saw his name, she just removed the “T” and put an “i” between “a” and “v” and now I have the name of an open source data company with a crab logo.
