What went wrong?

>NRS is an absolute joke among those who actually play fighting games.
the irony being that the absolute best fighting game player on the planet prefers MK and thinks other games, games that he has won tournaments handedly in, are trash

at least nrs was able to make a matchmaking that doesnt take 5 minutes to find a match. I can just got to mk11 and find a match within 15 seconds

>absolute best fighting game player on the planet prefers MK
[citation needed]

its me, i am the best!

They dont even try and make a good core fighting game everything is designed to get you to buy lootboxes and DLC packs. The fact they left the black women character broken throughout all of MK11 and told people on twitter they were sexist/racist when asking for them to nerf her is everything you need to know about NRS.

sweety you are being racist right now

Are you talking about SonicFox? Because the nigga got KWAB'ed in SFV.

It went from a spectacle to a gaudy drawn out spectacle.
The story mode also puts down huge inconsistencies of power levels the longer it goes on for.
Realism fucking sucks for art style.
Kronika is a fucking faggot of a final boss.
Time travel is fucking stupid.

Does he not? Nigga has won a major in virtually any game he puts his hands on and plays for more than a month and he still puts more hours into MK over any other game despite being objectively dominant in it.

Ninjakilla and Sonicfox are freaks of nature bred by MK and both have gone to different games and shit on established pros.

Sonic has also lost to a bunch of people.

Sonic fox bails on games as soon as better players appear and busted characters get nerfed

They kept making games after 3 ultimate. The series should have stopped there.

I think armageddon was the true tipping point to its downfall.

>remove execution and any advanced mechanics
>tie high damage combos to cutscenes
>the short combos that do exist can be broken out of for free 2-3 times per round
>gameplay is somehow slower than fucking MK2A

gee I wonder what went wrong

he's the fastest learner but he also plateaus fast

3 > Deception > Deadly Alliance > X > 4 > Armageddon > 2 > 1
I haven't played 11

>Sonic has also lost to a bunch of people.

No shit, everyone loses retard

Let me know when someone from another scene ventures into an NRS game, makes grand finals and makes Sonicfox sweat like he did to Hotashi in Strive at EVO last year.

People don't like Sonicfox but he's arguably the GOAT of fighting games at this point and there really isn't even an argument. And he prefers MK.

Johnny and Sonya having a kid was a mistake.

>The big and strong pro player said this gayme gud, rest is bad
God, this is worse than Alphafags using quoting Daigo to shit on 3rd Stike

Built for Sindel

Cassie's alright though, she got better when Ashley Burch didn't voice her in 11

>MKfags still can't instant block to disrupt pressure
>Meta stagnates because of it
What's the problem? I instant block in Strive all the time. Sonic was getting fucked by IBFD in GG last time I saw him play so he must not be used to it

Comparing what a colective group of people having an opinion to just one fag are completely different.

>What went wrong
Its a fighting game

Also it never had a popular female character and is pretty much known for Scorpion/Raiden

>"They all think it's bad"
>The best player in the world seems to enjoy it, here's evidence to support that...
>"Th-they just do okay?! He doesn't count!"

>X
Meant 9

I'm not the one who said MK is mocked, you mong.

Nyl slowed down his updates

How did it become "woke?'

>what went wrong
special forces
>what went right
every other one

You think NRS cares?
MK11 AND MKX both combined for something like 23 million copies sold.
Probably more copies than every game the FGC loves so much...sold combined within the past 6 years.

The last MK I played was 9, like everyone else, and it was great. Were X and 11 that bad?

"those who actually play fighting games" are insufferable faggots and I don't give a shit about what they have to say

Both are fine.
MKX is more fast pace.
MK11 is slower and revolves around footies.

I didn't found MK11 that bad, it had far less training lab time than MKX though, however what I truly found bad is that there is no way to block without the block button, why it's so hard to do it DoA style with both a block and walking back block?

sf relies PURELY on legacy too
and it and mk are the only ‘relevant’ fighting game brands out there besides smash
fuck the system

The best fighting game is world heroes perfect.
Why? It has perfect in the name.

My nigga
UMK3 is peak MK. Even my favorite MK game is Deception.

They got rid of the sexy outfits

The fuck man

10 is very skippable. 11s dlc made up for the entire game because of shang tsung being an absolute beast (don't care about sindels retcon)

I would kill to see MT Foxtrot in a MK game.
They should focus more on video game cameos than movie cameos.

Retarded woke devs pandering to subhumans that don't buy video games, while shitting on people who made them successful in the first place.

You don’t understand the fighting game scene. You’re a poser. You’re not a true fighter.

>Retarded woke devs pandering to subhumans that don't buy video games,
>MK11 goes on to be the best selling game in the series

it was never good to begin with

who cares the writing sucks.

lets see him do it in current street fighter or tekken (aka the only fgs that matter)
he wont do shit because he already tried and got bootyblasted back to mk skullgirls and dbfz and even there he still takes L's so yea you are a dumb nigger

I feel like the damage is done, and if a mk12 is made a lot of people will avoid it. I could be completely wrong tho

Sonicfag crumbles as soon as people figure his shit out. He is not good at adapting and improving to match the growth of a game at all.
He just got absolutely washed at a recent DBFZ tournament 0-3.

based you tell that asshole
