MK11 Story Discussion Thread (obvious spoilers)

Lt. Boxy Angelman

I WILL EAT THIS GAME
All of you will be right back here in 4 years to discuss the story of MK12, stop lying to yourselves. It’s a fun game with a better story than 90 percent of fighting games that have done a very good job keeping me entertained.

I think SJWs are a huge problem, because all of the women look like NPCs and they were all given needlessly important roles in the story at the expense of more popular male characters who could use a bad ass story moment. I say this as a huge Kitana fan and someone who loves her story in the game.
In B4 before another argument breaks out about how women characters don't count if they don't have their tits half out...another thing I need to give this game credit for regardless of how disappointed I am in the story: there is not one female character in this game who doesn't look fucking phenomenal. Like actual warriors and fighters, and not just eye candy who are welcome to be top tier as long as they jiggle the right way.

And no, I won't be. I will literally never have faith in the writers of this game another day in my life to deliver an anywhere-near-par story experience again. As far as I'm concerned, i hope this is the end of the line, and maybe we get some decent easter eggs or a DLC sendoff like FF14 did, and we never have to go through this again. I want this to be the end.

So is now the right time to start petiton to NRS not to write story anymore and give us bigger roster next game?

I've read everything here and I'm shocked that they could do something worse than MKX especially with Kittelsen behind the wheel. Damn, what a fool am I!
 
Don't haste with your judgment. I think the story gets along very well. Plus - we didn't experience it ourselves face to face, we just read what happened, but we don't know details, and we're not yet emotionally invested

No it doesn’t. Itns shit. No excuses needed.
 
That was 8 fucking years ago, man
No, I never bought 2011 version as a true reset. It was just escape from Armageddon curse, because it was obvious they put themselves in a trap with whole Back to the Future thing.
This one on another hand will allow them to start in a different direction and from scratch.

Lol, not at all.
Mk9 is a true reset both gameplay and story wise. Theyalmost nailed MK9 and then fucked up in MKX. MK11 fucks up again and here is your reset that is no different from the last. If they make another game, they will give us new character and fuck the story up again AND... make another reset. As long as that retard John Vogel and those writers is on the team, this series is doomed story-wise.

That's kinda your opinion and not a fact. So agree to disagree.

Cyrax, Sektor and Sheeva, those 3 who aint even playable (yet?), have more screen time and impact than Noob LUL .

My thirst for knowledge cannot be quenched
For real though, i think so that we wont be seeing the next installment anytime soon which makes me sad
 
Well, given that Ed said in his rapid questions interview that they are willing to go for a new IP at 9.6 out of 10, no wonder

I get that NRS wanted to explore new stuff and ideas, but did they really have to savage the entire MK universe to do so?
