Story - 7: Great start, middle but the ending was garbage. I didnt want Liu Kang and Raiden to steal the glory.....again. Its too cliche. I wanted it to be Geras that turns on kronika or scorpion and subzero that gets the job done.

Gameplay - 8: Best mechanics so far from netherrealm. You dont get opened up easily by 50/50 bullshit. Fatal blow is disappointing though. I dont like how opponents can armor and get multiple chances when you block it.

Graphics - 9: Nothing much to say. Netherrealm never disappoints.

Presentation - 6: The menu is not as simplistic as mkx but within time ill get used to it

4/10 first because it is a huge backstep from MKX gameplay-wise and second because it aggressively promotes leftist politics.

Seriously? Leftist politics?

You do know 'leftist' means pro-socialism, right? How is this game a push for socialism?

Leftist as a present day term means liberal/sjw/feminist/etc. in one single pack. They uglyfied the female characters and they also desexualized them. Also they changed ethnicities of multiple veteran MK characters in the name of diversity. That's all leftist politics in a nutshell. In other words they woked MK.

Don't take anything this guy has to say seriously. He's a triggered snowflake who's upset the female fighters aren't completely naked. He's one of those alt-right nuts who has spewed some veiled bigotry and cries about NRS being "too PC" and uses terms like " SJWs."

Awww a libtard is calling me snowflake. Now ain't that cute?

Who’d they really change?

Sub and Scorpion have always flip flopped between Asian-Caucasian.

I get the Jax ending is a tad on the nose.

On the subject of the politics that are involved with the game, I think it's hilarious that they decided to immortalize Trump with the "make Outworld great again" line. Whoever approved that one definitely didn't think it through. I'm sure they thought they were making fun of Trump with that line and by equating him to Shao Kahn, but whatever their desired effect for that is, it won't land.

To the poster above me, Kitana was changed as well. I always envisioned her as having an Asian appearance, so that one didn't register much for me.

I’ve seen some online stuff about the Shao Kahn line. I really didn’t take it as a Trump dis mainly because I like SK. Plus it suits the context of the conversation. Most MK fans like Shao Kahn. I remember a massive poll on here after MKA ranking Characters and Kahn was second on 92/100 losing only to Sub Zero on 94 or something

Had Kronica said it I’d probably see it different.

Regarding Kitana at least she doesn’t look like Michael Jackson anymore.

5/10

I truly feel the character designs kill it all for me

Street fighter keeps its iconic characters consistent in their looks. They changed Sub-Zero's look so much i don't recognize him anymore from when i used to play UMK3 for thousands of hours. I am overall extremely disappointed in the direction of the game.

MK9 was amazing, X was pretty decent also, but 11 is a cluster fuck. The towers,Krypt etc all speaks for itself.

No, it doesn't.

That's what people who know next to nothing about political jargon think. 'Leftist' and 'liberal' are not synonymous.

You're starting to sound like those crybabies on Twitter who've been following TMK's tail for the past week. Go take that BS over to them.

5/10. NRS fucked the storyline with time travel and butchered characters I hold dear. Game looks pretty as fuck though.

MK9: 10/10

MKX: 5/10

MK11: 8/10...only because the storyline is an absolute mess.

I thought the MKX girls were ugly and 11's a vast improvement. However, I would love to see more female skin via klassic kostumes.

The politics forced into the game is cringe worthy whatever your stance, but I don't get too hung up on it.

Right now I have to revise my score. MK11 is a 5/10.

My major problem is the grind. I can't unlock more in the krypt because I need 10000! souls. Ok... then I thought.. hm.. what else could I do. Oh personal towers for each kharacters... Ok let's try this! I main Kano. Right now I have to perform 75 fatalities and 75 brutalities after I unlocked the tower.. LOL! Are you serious, NRS? No, just no. This is BS. We have 25 kharacters.... so I have to perform 75 Brutalities and fatalities after I unlocked this tower... everything before doesn't count. Ok, lower the grind NRS. This is bullshit as hell. I am just demotivated because every progress is so slow. More coins doesn't help us. I am really curios what they gonna patch because right now it is a big disappointment.
