I need go know who the writers of the mk lore are, for both timelines. You can't go around tossing new content then don't try to incorporate it correctly
"oh but it's just a fighting game, it doesn't need a coherent stor-" WRONG, CRINGE
yk who thinks that? adults who say "movies targeted towards children shouldn't have good plot", because clearly those fuckers never watched kung fu panda or httyd
so what? just because it has graphics I can see everyone's acne I have to accept a shitty story (and sometimes gameplay)!?? are we not allowed to be entitled to a good, coherent aot levels's of storytelling? should we really settle for something so poor? is the bar THAT LOW? did animators really got traumatized just for their projects to be ruined by a story written by a kid?
"story in a fighting game shouldn't matter that much"
bitch the fuck not, that argument CANNOT be used in mortal kombat anymore after mk11 pulled a STORY DLC. They could've make Fujin, Sheeva, Nightwolf, Sindel and Shang Tsung simple kp characters, but NRS actively decided to work on a STORY to add them to the plot. They could've done what they did in kp2, with Mileena and Rain where they just added random intro dialogues and that's it, but there was a decision to make the characters WORK and make TWO ENDINGS
in summary: please, stop settling for shitty stories. Have high expectations because this is a COMPANY working on a game, not some indie devs that code in their free time because they have to pay rent with two other jobs. Good graphics don't equal good game.
thanks for coming to my other ted talk
