* Balancing : B -
Over the course of the game, the balancing was pretty poor imo, i feel like this is what we could get on day one or the second patch, NRS did great things with this game, but there is no denying that are aspects of the game that have been there since the beginning and no one likes it one bit.
* Overall Game Support : A
The game support was awesome, and it was by far the longest in the NRS history so far, not sure if this is the final patch but MKX had a good run.
* Listening To The Customers - neutral
They did listened a lot, but it felt like they didn't care either, so i'm not sure if it was a bad thing or a good thing, so my vote on this one is neutral.
* Amount of Content : C
DLCs with not alternates, among other things like new characters having way less costumes and such, a bunch of number scorpion skins no one asked for, story mode was poor and VS was all there was to go once the game was beaten.
* Overall Quality of Content :B
Nice stuff, aside from ugly stuff, less colors, uninteresting designs on some characters, hitboxes everywhere gameplay wise, nasty shit on ubber blockstuns and so on, really took some of the the quality of the game in general.
* DLCs : C
Fuck Guests, too much for my liking, still feel like the guest killed the spot of characters ppl really wanted in the game like Fujin and so on, so no, KP3 should've happened with no guests.
* Audio (Music) : B
The audio volume is pretty bad, NRS needs to do something about their audio protocol, its bad, IMO killed some pieces i believe it would be more memorable if the volume could be heard.
* DLC Money's Worth?: D
No
* Graphics/Video: A
It was fine
OVERALL SCORE B -
The game is fine, there is no perfect game, while i enjoy NRS and i'm an huge MK die hard fan, can't help to feel that this MK isn't as good as i wanted it to be, lots of things pulled me out of the loop, from gameplay decisions, to DLC and content didn't really pleased me as a fan of the franchise as much, specially the Story while the composition was awesome the context of the story and some inconsistencies was ass at some aspects that could definitely need improvements.
There is two category that weren't included that i wanted to talk about which also didn't pleased me at all
first off being this whole family generation stuff occupying part of the roster, it was nice to have Sonya and Cage having a daughter, but then Kenshi having a son, kung Jin and Jackie coming in as the MK family business was utter too much, we ended up having too many special forces characters in the game and lots of technology characters in the mix.
Besides kinda sucks not having a tournament in this one.
Second being the dark feel of MK, i honestly couldn't feel it in any part of the game, it felt like since Shao Kahn died, all the gritty mysteries surrounding outworld died with him, no creepy stages that gives the chills, at the very least D'vorah's realm should've been shown, since she was forced into the lore trying to tell us that she exist even before MK1, one thing i enjoyed through every Mortal Kombat till MK9, there is always that one location with such a strong story or connection that could give you the chills, either a new location or some gritty stage with some gritty music in it, while kove is probably the best stage in MKX, it would be far more interesting if we could see and fight inside that giant skull island and see what's in there.
I guess we kinda need our purple skies, or living trees and weird atmospheres back in the game so we can actually feel we're out of earthrealm.
