Yeah Mileena and Natara are my mains, probably will fuck around with Kenshi soon.

Well this certainly answers my question in a pretty definitive fashion.

I'm in The Living Forest level of Invasion...so repetitive.

There was supposedly an update today but.....the daily store items are still broken. :/

Broken how?

The shit doesn't change everyday. It's always clocked at 23hrs since launch.

I feel that gameplay wise, this game is a step up. However the more I play, the more I feel its lacking in a lot of ways, compared to mk 11.

I was going to compliment the outfit for Jacqui when I remembered that Jacqui isn't in the game. That Sindel, though.

I do have to give the game credit for there being more to certain characters than was previously given to them in earlier entries. Tanya is probably the best example as she's finally more than just "I LIKE BETRAYING PEOPLE!!!"

God damn, that's pretty cool.

I gots the og arcade1up MK 1-3 mini cab and riser but that would be hella

Cool, dope, rad af

Unlocked mk 3 sonya and a cool looking "dark geras" skin from the shrine. Neither of which is in the character mastery, in any variation. I've also seen people getting the dark sindel skin on the store front, though only one color.

So it seems all the really cool skins are in the shrine. You just have to sift through all the concept art which is a drag. I want cool skins but all I'm getting is art of npc #1,236's left testicle.

Would the right testicle be more welcome?

Took me forever to get all the "maskless" in MK11 and here I am waiting to get my first one in MK1

I rock the seasonal Nitara look with her hair down. I wish I could get another color option for it already

I imagine there's going to be Halloween related stuff?

Maybe on the premium store. Next season is blood themed whith nitara as the boss.

Challenge went up for doing mercys which aren't even in the game yet.

I'm really thinking this was supposed to come out in early 2024, but WB ( which is hemorrhaging money, especially on the games division) pushed NRS into releasing it early. It has stunning visual polish, but it's very shallow in terms of content when compared to the last few NRS offerings.

It is but theyve got a lot of areas that function well for long term development so the future is bright i think. And the single player non story mode is "kinda cool"

Invasion is definitely fun the first time around, but it lacks the replay value of towers of time. Given how much of a grind mastery can be, it's rough for people who play this primarily for single player content.

it's not fun... it's just an itch to grind for the sweet ass kollection swag

The inferno themed stuff is definitely sweet. Bummed I never found a tatted up Sindel skin though.

full on robot chubby awaiting invasion season 2 for Nitara's story that's voice acted mostly by an angel.

Worth noting that they clearly knew how bad fox was. In the main story shes got like 2 lines.

Shang Tsung's voice acting is as good as fox is bad. Really nailed a young cary-hiroyuki tagawa.

Fox almost approaches the levels of early days-Resident Evil craptitude in the voice acting department. Like, who pushed for her to get the role?

Most likely she has a studio contract witb WB. Theyre probably just trying to fulfill obligations so they end the contract.

yeah that should be the Taung voice going forward

Speaking of voices while the new guy totally fit the scenario i really miss OG Raiden. Its a pretty iconic VO to lose

Raiden's booming god voice was always great. Everything he said came across as important.

Lambert is to Raiden as Mark Hamill is to Joker

just playin! ow ow

I will say Lambert's characterization of Raiden was more entertaining and more in line than the Jesus Christ-like interpretation of Remar in the second movie.

Random Invasion thoughts:

I think they should allow you to go back and do this Scorpion themed Invasion after the next one pops up. It'd really dumb to only have one at a time and a content killer for people that don't have enough free time to finish or for those that pick up the game later.

I'm actually shocked they don't make you beat the Scorpion boss for only a chance to get a Nether Stone. Once you beat him once you can go back and open them all.

Talisman and Relics are pretty worthless for the most part outside of a few fights. 99% of the fights are just snooze fest grinds after the first node or so.

There should be a Relic that doesn't do anything positive except block Kahn's favorite maneuver...the button rearrangement.

Each Invasion campaign should also have its own character/kameo leveling that starts off from scratch ignoring everything from Scorp's current campaign....level 0, items, etc.

That second Mortal Kombat film was as close to pure garbage as you could get for a video game-based film.

The first MK film was a nice campy style action film set in the MK universe but that second film made Street Fighter The Movie seem like a masterpiece in comparison and that movie was somewhat awful baring Raul Julia's performance.

The 2nd MK movie was garbage but still a guilty pleasure of mine along with Mario Bros, Howard the Duck, etc.

The soundtrack slayed (as an industrial music fan).

At least it gave us live action Night Wolf.

This is a good to 7/10 game right now. I'm not a conspiracy truck scientist but NR have had their hands tied with the WB/Discovery changes and bumped this game a year before it was ready.

Then the latest SF came out and forced it sooner.

Tekken going to drop a beat pretty soon on a release date trailer?
