Wow...
I can't believe they didn't take the opportunity to do something with this. At least:
- Why not make the DLC mandatory now?
People who play this game should be at the point where they want to learn every single match-up, if they don't; why are you playing this game still?
- Why not hot-fix the game one last time?
I'm not going to get into specifics (another topic entirely, keep it that way) but there's a lot of little things that should be fixed. Not another patch but if they could without changing the game completely then change them for the better of the game, if not tell us that's it!
- Why not continue support for this game with additional skins for characters?
Don't tell me their code is that crappy that they can't add more skins, they can...they obviously did with compatibility patches and if they would just focus on this game some more (because it is the best Mortal Kombat game yet and some of us aren't ready to move forward) they would be recognized as a great fighting game supporter.
Why should we go buy their next game if all they are going to do is promise us stuff that won't come out and when they made enough money off it; ignore the game entirely and already be moving on to the next installment. All I'm saying is some characters skins, potentially some levels and fatalities should not be back/game-breaking for the developers. It really shouldn't and I know the MK community would appreciate, especially the people who post here
Anyway, that just bothers me they've went about it like this. I feel like they're turning into Activision or EA and completely screwing themselves over in the longrun. Sure they might make more money but don't they want to be remembered for this game? Wasn't that the point of making this game in the first place? To be remembered for it? I still think there's plenty of money to be made if they just put out the right stuff and not f--- up the game in the meantime -- a tall order, I know but we're at a pretty good spot now...why stop while the gettin' is good?
Boon himself even said he wants to take a break from MK. Okay, well continue supporting this game and move onto whatever else you wanna do...the MK fans are happy with this game and if they're not, there's plenty of us who are despite its flaws.
