    you must be online to play this game, i got to say, you must be kidding with me !

    Censorship on this game is funny, it is +18, but actually they built it for children's.

    they covered women and ripped the cloth out of men's body, for God's sake it is +18 game, normal tv channels are more uncovered than your game.

    Be careful with this game! In Spain they have not doubled the game to Spanish or Castilian. It has many micropayment systems. It is a machine to take your money. If you do not want to take a long time to get something, you pay. Many unnecessary DLC. Better to wait for the full version with patches and dlc included in the disk at a reduced price, while you play it borrowed by a friend. DoBe careful with this game!

    For those who give this game score below 5 let me ask you this:
    Are you really scoring the game which was made by NRS?
    Or the microtransactions and that EXTRA grind which was put by OBVIOUSLY WB? Please for sake of NRS *if at this point you even care* take back/ remove or change your score They made this game with improvements better than we could expect And you guys are blaming

    They made this game with improvements better than we could expect
    And you guys are blaming them for WB actions?

    I give it a 10/10 because of you guys to get the average score higher
    But to be fair I would have given them a 8.5/10 because of extra grind *which they are trying their best to make it better* and Towers of Time fights
    Also selling Frost which you can easily get just by playing story *I don't know who made that microtransactions

    Again I ask everyone to rethink of their scoring

    Thank you

    Another **** created by leftist brainlets, even though leftism is a verified mental illness. Laughable story, but thankfully forgettable at least. Still, the franchise is lost. Stay away.

    You done **** it up ! What the hell ? All this grind ? Microtransactions ? Really ? You have to play 4000 hours or pay 6000 dollars to get all the skins and upgrades. And where are some of the basic characters ? Mileena ? Smoke ? Reptile ? What a dissapointment...

Просто адъ, господа. Пишу сей сумбурный и скомканный обзор после краша игры в меню кастомизации персонажа. Просто в меню.

    3 оптимизации из 10
    10 страшных баб из 10

    UPD: Предлагаемого к покупке персонажа можно получить в сюжете. Удалось таки в настройках нашаманить сносный FPS. В целом, пырдак остыл и можно сменить настроение с минуса на плюс. В сухом остатке, обычный МК.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Things I didn't like so far:

    1. Women are all covered up like muslims, according to devs "datz more mature and rizpectful", since when more clothes=more respectful? When you go to the beach and see all the women in bikinis, do you disrespect them? No, that's BS... "but but u dont fight in bikiniz", really? what about UFC? Also what about male characters? They show a lot of skin, that double standard is very hypocrite. Just say the truth man, they made the characters unattractive so the landwhales who play the game don't get jealous.

    2. Also devs: "people who critisize the game are not real fans", just because we are fans of a franchise it doesn't mean we have to eat all the excrement you expel from your anus. If you ruin your own franchise we won't support you.

    3. Microtransactions are awful, it looks like a cashgrab mobile game.

    4. Shao Kahn saying "make the Outworld great again", really? now we have politics in MK? "but but itz just a joke" yeah right, just a joke, what a coincidence that the one who says that, is one of the most evil characters ever. It's obvious that they are implying that Trump is as evil as Shao Kahn, and that's also BS.

    5. I haven't seen all endings, but Jax's ending is a joke, first of all, time travel doesn't work like that, second, it's a Wakanda ripoff, really lazy and unoriginal... "you hate it cuz you want blackz to be slavez", no, I don't like slaves, I just don't want politics in my games.

    6. Warner censoring people who criticise the game.

    7. GET WOKE GO BROKE

    Trash. This game is full of grind and microtransactions. I traded this game in the day after I bought it and was very disappointed. Utter garbage. DO NOT BUY. It was most likely WB games that forced Netherrealm to turn MK 11 into a grind fest. I don’t think I’ll ever buy a WB published game again, or one from Bethesda or EA, for that matter.

    Don't do it. Politics, RNG, Grind - it's all here. This is a mobile port on console. Let that **** sink in. IT'S A MOBILE PORT. Stay the hell away from this game. You wouldn't give your dog a treat when it pisses on the floor would you? Then don't give this studio your money when it does the same.

    To those who say that the game is bad because the women are not revealing enough, there are micro transactions forcing you to look through chests, and because you have to have online all the time to play, I will briefly refute your ignorant claims.

    Firstly, the complaint about women not being revealing is the stupidest crap I have ever heard. Stop being thirsty and let a game create

    Firstly, the complaint about women not being revealing is the stupidest crap I have ever heard. Stop being thirsty and let a game create badass women, (with great personalities), that promote womens rights. As a male, I feel ashamed that I have to say this but yeah.

    Secondly, the microtransactions do not force you to purchase anything with real money, but rather you have to use in game "Koins." Also, this grinding for koins is only necessarry if you wish to collect all of the fatalities and items in the game. If you have a life, then not grinding and doing this over time will not be such an issue. These are unlockables, not items you absolutely have to get.

    Funny how all the "professional" reviewers simply ignore all the grinding and microtransactions and pretend like they don't exist. Also, the female characters are boring and the men show a lot of skin (which is fine, but girls should do so as well).

    So far I'm truly loving the game. Sound design and audio atmosphere is great. Game play is good as always and the changes that were made help balance things out in my opinion. Not 100% sure if I truly enjoy Ronda Rousey as Sonya, but yet again it's also a mix of not being used to her voice as Sonya and that she isn't a trained voice actress.

    As a whole the game is amazing and I haven't

    -The graphics are good, but the pc port is once again suffering from issues. (artifacting/warping assets etc)
    -The game has a lot of cosmetics for every character, however do not rejoice. You must grind the Krypt for every single one of those items, where the prices of chests are laughably high. The item drops are RNG, which makes it an absolutely tedious chore to unlock a single item for a character you want to customize.
    -The entire game must be online at all times, (yes, even the campaign). And when the servers disconnect, you guessed it, you will be losing progress and/or settings. Getting booted offline will cause the game to crash, even when you are not playing online.
    -The game makes an attempt at feeding you SJW garbage such as; virtue signaling about womens' clothing in a game about murdering each other, blatantly trying to force political agendas on you in certain parts of certain endings along with some parts suffering from tasteless writing that just makes you raise your eyebrows.
    -This is a 60 dollars game, yet they have a store with micro-transactions being offered to the player in the menu.
    +The combat is somewhat fun and solid, but the overall horrible decisions from the publisher/developer makes it hard to find the positive features in the game. (because there is hardly any)

    Not even the gameplay can save MK11 from WB's greedy practices and negligent behavior towards the overall quality of their product, this why the final score is a 0.

    WB and NRS need to be reminded that consoles are not smartphones! Do they take us for fools, saying there would be no lootboxes and giving us that Krypt?

    If is the eleventh installment really is the last Mortal Kombat for at least some time, then the developers part with it with dignity. Large number of fighters, great possibilities for editing them and great gameplay make the game one of the best fighter games of recent years. [Issue#295]

    Like the grisly cutscenes, Mortal Kombat 11 is fun as long as you don't think too hard or look too closely at it - but that's exactly where the real joy is found in a fighting game. If Mortal Kombat wants to elevate itself, it's time to start overhauling the skeleton underneath all that flesh. [Issue#333, p.110]
