It's the same core gameplay, by that logic the ps5 versions of multiplatform games should cost $10 less than xbox since it's lower resolution and blurry af.
Yup agreed noone expected the Switch to look like the current gen's. They look a generation apart as expected.
Special forces didn't fit into the story here, they would have had to shoehorn her in and it wouldn't have made sense.
I'm sure you are just messing around but some PS5 games are higher res than XSX most are equal and the few that are slightly lower tend to have more stable framerates.
Getting into Story Mode. Have the odd impression the Story is a big mess, yet the characters are great and strangely consistent. It has a weird nostalgia vibe with call backs to old stories, yet with several twists.
Liu Kang and Raiden kind of trading places is oddly cool.
Enjoying the game even though I think my gameplay is terrible. I kind of half-assed the tutorial so missing advanced concepts, but it's still fun.

Do gamers playing on the switch care? Did they expect it to look like the next gen versions?
Ok I'm done showing my son how to do kombos. He kicked my ass with baraka. His baraka is unreal. He's obviously been practicing. Passing the torch to him. Play on Buddy.
Still in story mode.
How many people do I have to fight just to talk to Sindell?

FYI, all brutalities and the second fatality unlock by lvl 15 for each character.
Respec all points into attack, get a flawless and brutality/fatality, rinse and repeat for each character you want to lvl up quickly as possible. Throw on a podcast or something and spam a specific fight

Finally finished Story Mode. I think it's kind of an absurd mess. Not necessarily bad, absurdity can be fun, and it played with what people expect a reboot to be. Shang Tsung seemed ridiculously petty though.
I'm optimistic they'll have a good Aftermath style follow up or even more.

And my son trained Baraka with a silver spoon
Subzeros blue, but he’ll have a skin soon
When you coming home dad?
I don’t know when
We’ll get together then.
You can disembowel me then.
They were a bit janky in the last game too but yeah this one definitely has more bugs. Some of the fatalities have the wrong distance in the description and of course when you look at the brutality you have to hit the button to see the detailed way to execute it.

I loved Shang being such a dick lol he thinks he's so much better than everyone else. It was almost like an 80's nighttime soap opera villain in a good way IMO lol. It definitely is a bit of a love letter to the 3D era in some ways and there is going to be a story expansion, they've already data mined a bunch of stuff from the PC version.
I don't agree with all of it but that's a pretty fair review, I'm going to be a little biased simply because it's one of my favorite gaming franchises of all time. I don't play online so his issues there don't mean anything to me. I was happy with the story as he was so we agree there lol, I think their focus on more original skins vs ton of gear is the better choice as well but I'm sure plenty of others don't agree. Invasions could be better for sure, and the more I play it the more I want them to do a high end 2.5D double dragon kind of game with these graphics.Mortal Kombat 1 review - a false start in the race for reinvention
