@DownfouralitY yeah, I'd totally say the komics are developing the pre-MKX story much better. Of course we need to consider that comics are a much more suitable vessel to tell a story, opposed to a fighting game in which the focus need to shift for the gameplay and a lot of balancing, not to mention that resources that went into those cinematics not even compare to the same amount of story development being put on illustrated pages.
Although the story was very well developed and the formula really succeeded profit-wise as you said, so it's very likely they'll keep it this way from now on. I just wish the future games were more story driven and more risky when it comes to the roster, so we can see more new stuff and less from the last game. I recognize kharacter popularity will influence their decisions, but still I think MKX could've risked more.
