    Truthfully I have more fun with the bullshit of mkx than I do with the more balanced game of mk11. I just enjoy the flashy combos and run cancels and the speed of mkx and putting people through the blender of mix or hard to blockables. I think that’s true for 99% of the people who play at a mid to slightly above average level.

      Aside from what you mention, there is also a huge part of general mechanics that are superior in terms of design and functionality, which are part of what makes MKX good as a game. Of course the meter system isnt ideal, but it is still better than what it is in MK11. All other systems like wake-up options, X-Rays, interactables, AA, jailing, d2 on block punishing, are satisfying, unlike in MK11.

    What you have refused to see, is that the moment MK11 ended up on respiratory choking on its own neutral vomit made by this and that, MKX was resurrected like Jesus on the 3rd day. Minority were playing MKX while whole scene had hopes for MK11s fix. With the time, and NRS's business plan on moving on, people started to jump of that sinking ship and back to the MKX raft. Plus the miracle that Capcom pulled off, was a big "dude, wtf" a nail to the MK11 coffin.

    Tom makes good points but miss diagnoses the problem. MKXL DID NOT DIE Because of 1 Tournament scene. It died when INJUSTICE 2 was released in 2017.
    This is a manufactured NRS Problem because they want to make money off BOTH Fandoms every 2 years instead of every 4 years. That's why the DLC in MK is always INJUSTICE Characters.
    And INJUSTICE 2 had Subzero and Scorpion as DLC. The issues aren't from MK people about MK, its from MK AND INJUSTICE PEOPLE About MK. OR the Reverse. And that's why we are never HAPPY WITH THE GAME.
    You can't even tell the difference in the ending screen of INJUSTICE 2 and MK11. They are practically the same. And they play similarly as well. MKX annd MK9 dont have that BS.
    MK9 wasn't even FUN! Its just that there was NO MONEY IN IT AT THE TIME so people played only IF THEY WANTED TO PLAY. While all newer releases have MONEY INVOLVED.
    Tom, Reo and the boys always seem to only focus on tournament scenes IRL and NOT ONLINE. Its one of the reason no took Ninjakilla serious UNTIL he won an OFFLINE TOURNY. Its a BIAS because thats there scene.
    MK11 isn't even being played because its better than MKXor INJUSTICE 2. Its played because NRS is yet to release INJUSTICE 3 which is likely going to have MK CHARACTERS IN THAT AS WELL!!!
    MK9 and MKX felt unique in how they both played. THEY FELT Like FIGHTING GAMES. MK11 DOES NOT because they focus more on having all the Customization from INJUSTICE for MICRO TRANSACTIONS TO MAKE MONEY and thought of the ACTUAL Game play 2nd or 3rd.
    MK9 and MKX were 1 patch away from being perfect but MK11 NEEDS AN ENTIRE OVERHAUL TO FIX WITH ALL ITS MECHANICS! These are not the same.

  • @_saint_magda

    there really is no incentive for a dev like NRS you pivot towards competitive play bc that would just cut into their bottom line. when casuals realize they’d have to actually learn how to play instead of spamming cheap specials and down 1 into throw they’d just drop it and never pick it back up. it just doesn’t make sense for NRS to make a game that requires more skill and nuance when that’s clearly not who they’re making games for 🤷🏽‍♀️ MKX is definitely their strongest entry in the franchise, no doubt! but it’s ridiculous to think that instead of convincing them to use their vast wealth from the sales of this game to fix the current one, we should just go back to a game that’s six years old. and don’t even get me started on their piss poor communication… no other studio on earth strings their fans along thru silence like NRS i SWEAR lmaooo

    Sometimes I like your takes, but this is a terrible one. Basically what you are saying is that If the community banned alien prior to that tournament MKX would have been the greatest game they ever made. (Which it is btw) so banning one character is what completely invalidates your side of the argument? Mkx is incredible - Mk11 is boring trash with EXTREME LAZINESS from the devs. It was a cash grab with extremely lazy development.

      MKX has a lot of valid criticisms as both games do, in MKX there are STILL damn near broken characters and mechanics that people don't care about because we've been playing it for 6 years. I do also think MKX is their best game but MK11 is nowhere near trash, I feel like people say that because its the newest one and people still have high opinions and nostalgia based from MKX. One of the only reasons people hate on MK11 because its wildly more balanced than MKX will ever be, and also due to the zoning that is s big part of the game. At the end of the day though, the biggest complaint I have with the game is how horrible NRS is with transparency with literally anything game news related.

MKX demanding more, I agree, because after you get caught in an unseeble low or overhead 50/50 in its terrible netcode into a 35-40%+ combo into a hard knockdown into a setup which is gonna involve ANOTHER low/overhead/grab mixup, so I'd say it demands a lot more PATIENCE than anything else since it can be so infuriating at times. I main Noob Saibot in MK11 so I know what you mean when you talk about Cetrion, Geras and Jacqui, because I honestly think they're some of the most boring characters in that game, but at the same time both games have their own faults and problems.

    I disagree that SonicFox could have used Alien from start and 3-0ed Tekken Master. We've seen Tekken Master play for so long and we know he's a counter picker. SonicFox knew this! So the last game was the perfect time to bring out Alien as Tekken Master had to stick with Blood God. As far as MKXL not being the answer, well it is for me. I played MKXL from my friends PC and really got into MK. When MK11 came out I bought the game and regretted it. I went back to MKXL and I can still play for hours. It is hype! There are new things I've learnt only recently!! Most of all, IT'S FUN TO WATCH!
    FYI: NRS filled MK11 with crushing blows, free X-Rays to try to make it fun for casuals. MKXL didn't need that. Combos are sick, players must be responsible with meter usage, etc. And people say there're no footsies in the game but that's bcos MKXL allows a wide array of game styles and requires very good reactions to play footsies. Since most people don't have that they just run at each other. But watch the top players and you'll see it!
