Well, Yea Forums, is he right? Do fatalities kill the narrative?

Fighting game narratives 75% of the time are usually shit like
>WE HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER TO FIGHT BAD GUY
>FUCK YOU NIGGA
>NO FUCK YOU
>Actual gameplay
>OH HEY YOU JUST BROKE MY RIBS IN SIX PLACES, RUPTURED MY LIVER AND MADE MY BRAIN HEMORRHAGE SO I GUESS WE'RE BUDDIES NOW
It's hard to kill something that was kinda retarded from the get go.

Mortal Kombat has a story?

Yeah, he's totally right. It even happened with Soul Calibur. They just released Amy, and now every time one of them goes up against my Raphael, it just totally takes me out of the game because he would never fight his "daughter."

I think fighting games should fix this by only allowing you to fight certain characters. That way I can play the game without it ruining the story since that's the most important part.

fuck this incel

I'm pretty sure you can't do fatalities in the story mode of Mortal Kombat. If that's not his argument and he's talking about just in general and not in story mode, then I don't know what to say, what a stupid opinion

>Say retarded thing
>People can't stop giving you clicks and giving you attention

Stop rewarding this behaviour

When did MK turn into a retarded horror game instead of cheesy Kung fu

>Fatalities kill the narrative
You don't even do fatalities in story mode. This is just a dumb clickbait video.

No, I have to be correct on the internet always! Let no one say that I was wrong on this topic.

Just posting to let you know I did not (and will not ever) click on your video.

Faggot

amy and raphael have playful interactions though and raph can't make amy naked with his strip move.

A pretty Donut Steel one but yes it has a story.

True
Sick 0 to death combos are all I care about.
They could completely remove the story and I wouldn’t even notice

Goddamn, this fucking faggot. His whole argument doesn't make a lick of sense. First of all, these conversations or chats before a fight in MKX (and Injustice 2) are all usually jabs, jokes or references. They don't play any major roles in the game's actual story. They're fan service, plain and simple. Also, why the fuck would you play an MK game and then complain that you can butcher your own wife and kids in the game? IT'S MORTAL FUCKING KOMBAT. The whole point of MK is brutal gory over the top violence and gameplay! What a fucking pussy ass complaint, but this guy has the biggest hate boner for MK and Injustice to the point of nitpicking every single fucking thing that I can't take his opinion about it all that seriously. I get it: he doesn't like the animations, he doesn't like the fatalities, he just doesn't like them. THEN WHY FUCKING PLAY THEM? This guy is just fucking annoying and I hate how some have taken to use him as an example of how ''fighting game animations should be done'' when everyone can make the characters move in whatever fucking ways they want. Fuck this guy.

Yeah. It's cheesy, dumb and over the top stupid, but it's a lot of fun.

This guy really has it out for Mortal Kombat

see

cope

>Not a Nathaniel Angel video
I have no interest.

Don't JoJo fighting games not let you use vampires in stages with sunlight?

Getting real sick of every youtube video being a video essay by some dickmuncher.
Where's the modern Evolution of Dance?

> "NRS ANIMATIONS ARE UGLY MUH ART SCHOOL WOULD FAIL THEM"
> nrs fixes animations
> "Fuck uh uh FUCK FATALITIES THEY RUIN SHIT"

Why waste time making quality content when clickbaiting and posting dumb opinions is ten times as effective?

no fatalities are nothing more than a non Canon way to have fun in a video game. Anyone who takes fatalities seriously is an enormous faggot just like the person who made the video and op who posted it on to this forum

>Mortal Kombat
>Narrative
fuckin' lel

What exactly is his issue with fatalities? That you can kill characters who’re related or chummy with each other? I don’t get what his issue is here.

Nothing, is some tard fishing for easy clicks

Interfight narratives are a thing, MK tries to have these but when instead of post-fight dialogue you get Johnny ripping open his daughter's chest for a gag, you lose half the inter-fight narrative. Other fighting games have pre-fight and post-fight banter, giving the fight itself a narrative but casual flirting into stabbing someone in the face with their own rib cage is tonal dissonance.

tl'dr: Having someone be chummy or acknowledge their relationships doesn't line up to the characters willingness to cut them into a flesh lotus

People play fighting games for the story?

This faggot is always talking about MK. Is there any footage of him playing the game against people? I bet he got the shit kicked out of him online and ever since then he has held a grudge against the game.

Anybody who comes from Tekken, Street fighter, or anime games and plays MK always have this inflated/entitled attitude, they think because they play what they consider "real" fighting games that they should dominate MK for free, but in reality they get their shit pushed in and then come up with excuses for why the game is bad.

Not only are essays and clickbait more effective, creating actual video art is punished because of the way YouTube works. It's why Storytime Animators are the only animation folk who can succeed on the platform. If you make a high quality piece of animation, not only will it take forever, but because the result is often shorter than 5 minutes, it will get buried under commentary trash.

Johnny killing his daughter is pretty dumb desu. They could at least bother to program a unique "fatality".
