Well, watching that it just hit me that she has the same voice as Futaba.

I have a question: {Spoiler}Since Kronika is now dead at the dawn of time, does that mean Shinnok and Cetrion will now never be born in the new timeline? Or even, any Elder God?

Love all the references and callbacks in the intros, some of which are quite subtle.

"I think Bo' Rai Cho gets stupider every sequel." Seriously though: {Spoiler}Let's just say Marty McFly has a Polaroid picture of Shinnok & Cetrion with Jacqui Briggs.

Kano's "Last Dance" fatality is so freaking weird in all the best ways, I love it. And I love the fact that it's his default fatality even more, like it's just what he does now. I'm amazed at how unapologetically brutal and gross he is in this game. This may be my favourite version of Kano yet (his redesign is also one of the best he's had, IMO).

Can someone help? I was looking up the main series and I can't figure out how we're up to 11 games.
1, II, 3, 4, Deadly Alliance, Deception, Armageddon, 9, X, 11.
Which one is missing?

I've only played a bit, but the love this game has for the original film warms my heart.

There's a lot that I love about this game, but all the little things are starting to add up to make me slightly resent it as well. The Towers Of Time being frankly a colossal waste of time, the randomised Krypt and how many of the unlocks are just for rubbish augments and tower items to make sure your coins aren't spent on the stuff you actually want, Ronda Rousey's dreadful voice acting and presence (though it did allow SonicFox to piss off Graham Linehan, so...).
And then there's the tutorial. Most of it is actually pretty decent, and a good introduction to things like frame counting in a way that's fairly accessible. But then there's the ones seemingly designed to make you have to buy a new controller, like the flawless block ones, and the Raiden/Kabal combo. Hey, you're learning how to play the game! Now press back and Square, Triangle, then cancel into a special move with back-forward-Square without it mixing itself up with the previous input, then if you manage that remember to do the instant enhance with R1, then when you're turned around, press Forward - which was previously back - and Circle, then cancel into back-forward X. Simple, right? Oh, and every input has to be frame perfect or screw you. (Also, there's the ones where even the tutorial doesn't know how to do it, and the one in the Kollector's character one where they explicitly tell you to dash cancel with forward-forward or back-back but the actual way to do the cancel is to tap down-down.)

I just finished all the character tutorials and I suck, so keep at it friend. Now the flawless block I agree completely on. Regarding a rumored DLC character, I'm going to call his ending... {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Ash uses the hourglass and endless up in the apocalypse like the alternative Evil Dead II ending I've heard the UK sales numbers, and yes they are down 43% over MKX... which was the best selling MK to date. On a quick google search, I was not able to find US sales numbers. That said... This could be spin though.

My thinking too, but I sooo caved. F***, I wish I at least pre-ordered to get Shao Khan free, but no. Well, it makes me want to get MKX now. So I'll wait until it goes on sale. I really like the customization of MK11. Yeah, the augment system is grindy as f***, but overall it's great. Also I appreciate allowing the computer to fight for you.
