Been trying to do Rain's down the drain brutality and it didn't work so I looked it up and it apparently it's swapped with the last one you unlock so it'll tell you that you've unlocked it when you haven't lol. Also Sub Zero's kameo brutality doesn't work, I guess it's supposed to be a throw and down down but it has it labeled as something else.
Yup. I don't know how they messed up the brutality unlocking mechanisms. Seems like something that would've been easily caught in QA testing.
Well, I've been doing Invasions stuff which is like Towers, but with a map dealy.
The game kind of feels unfinished with some of the Brutality inputs mixed up. However, I think the graphics continue to get more polished and I do enjoy the nostalgia of this franchise.
When I do get some Brutalities unlocked and executed, it is really satisfying.
So far, my main character unlock focus is Raiden and Kung Lao. I might go for Geras next.

The visuals especially chars are light years from other fighting game. They use to made the ugliest char models and just a while ago before switching 3D scan.
Just a shame I am not fan of the MK fighting game feel

Honestly... I'm torn whether this is a better game than 11...I mean, the combat is... better, I think, but there's a lack of OG characters (lack of characters as a whole honestly), the graphics is technically better, but I'm not sure if I really like the art direction here...I thought 11 nailed it and the lighting prob is better in 1 but I think it's too light. The stages. look great but I think 11 had cooler stages. I miss the krypt. I think it was a mistake to just give us one gear per character. There's too few skins (and the unlockable ones are too heavy on color swapping. I want some og hooded costumes for sub zero and scorpion (the "hooded" unlockables look bad). Raiden and Kung Lao look too much alike. Johnny Cage face look r******d.
Idk, I love 11, if I had friends over I prob rather play that with all the cool DLC characters (TMNT!).... give me Super Shredder and I might change my mind though lol

I've mostly been playing Invasion then go to easy Novice towers mostly to mess with the Brutalities I unlock. I also play offline because I know I'll get destroyed by people that have more time than me to game
. Actually, one nitpick relating to learning the game is in MK11 you could select a few move inputs from the list, press Y, and they would overlay on the screen. I feel like now I have to either keep hitting Start to go the moves list or find a website with the moves and have them on my Tablet next to my gaming laptop. Some of my impression is that the Kameo fighters kind of both add to and dilute the feel of the gameplay and as an Offline Player, I don't really see the character clash dialogue.
Many intros and outros in MK11 were absolutely sick. This doesn't affect gameplay experience directly, but added a lot to the vibe of the MK gameplay experience. In MK1, they have to share the intro stance with the Kameo partner.
The 2nd on in this video of Scorpion's Firenado intro is so cool. I think all these have a different 'attitude' as MK1 characters introduce themselves throwing a bunch of punches and kicks. MK11 Intro mostly just stroll in slowly knowing. Maybe this is partly because MK1 is a reset and everyone is busted down to being new.
There are some trade-offs I guess as Raiden's lightning looks increadible in MK1. Or in general many powers have a better 'Bloom' effect to lightning, fire, or magic.
Otherwise, I think the Gear is still a neat idea, but NRS can't figure out how to apply it. They mistakenly decided to have it all resemble RPG gear as in MK11 or even INJUSTICE 2 the pieces would apply bonuses. They made something that is visually cool into a feature that is way to complicated. This is a fighting game, not an RPG.

I agree with everything above and invasion is pretty cool tbh, cleared it day 3 of playing the game though and now there's nothing left to do except grinding for more gear and brutalities for a few characters I don't really feel any interest in.
The krypt would keep me busy for months, and I think invasion has potential, but I'll fall off this game if I'll have to wait months for a new "season".
Idk, game feels barebone af compared to injustice 2 and mk11.
Was just thinking that in a story with all these time lines and variations, I wish they'd finally slip in a few Big Trouble in Little China characters.
I mean.... c'mon I'm sure this heavily inspired the art direction of the first game.

Honestly, from what I've seen, the only real problem is the extreme loading times and the bugs and glitches... the game looking like a blurry mess and ps3 era textures isn't really surprising and something switch owners should've expected tbhMortal Kombat 1 on Switch receives new update promising performance improvements
