I watched the video, and it's interesting hearing it's take. Most players outside the MK community feel it plays like Mk, but most in our community feel it's completely different. Kind of wondering were the disconnect is coming from.
My theory on why players say it feels like MK
If I had to assume, most mk players have not played other fighting games, therefore when they play injustice (which is a lot different from mk), they notice it immediately. Players outside the community have played multiple fighting games, so the closest they associate it with is mk, because it's the most closest resemblance to the game. (I'm I right or wrong? Tell meh!)
Overall, if watch the interview, watch the whole review. I know a lot of people are going to use "selective listening" and pick apart the negatives only. Example:
Aris mentioned that the one of the problems was like it played like MK. He then mentions "that's not a problem for me, I really enjoyed mortal kombat when I played it and enjoyed watching it after I stopped playing it soooooo...I think thats great" He states there are people that no matter what are going to label it as mk9.
Of course, someone is going to completely ignore the positive parts afterwards like when he call the game "crisp" and describes the inputs as nice and responsive.
