    Great game, new mechanics are reasonable and enjoyable, cutscenes are great, the story is kinda stupid in some points, but come on, it's MK.

    Review bombers are becoming the very thing they're so afraid of. Simple trash as SJW.

    This game deserves a score of 10 for the story mode alone. What a technological marvel and a feast for your eyes and ears. As a fighting game alone, it is probably the best one I have played since the newer Killer Instinct. All characters are well designed, the netcode is solid and the stages look amazing. I am going to sink many hours into this game.

    Great game - fluid controls, great graphics, lenghty and quite interesting story. I'll adress those negative coments - You get full game for what you pay. You dont have to pay extra for any of the characters (well there will be more in dlc but thats nothing new in fighting games), story mode is long and there are lots of other content.

    Only cosmetic thing are unlockable in krypt which is nothing new in mortal kombat franchiese and only second fatality moves are interesting in this krypt - which also is nothing bad, as I recall, in mk 1-4 you had no list of fatalities, and you had to guess the input keys or get it from game magazines. Unlocking fatalities in krypt became a thing in ps2 era, so also - nothing new so why all the hate?
    Other thing - SJW? In mortal kombat? ARE YOU FKIN kidding me - there is no such thing in MK11!!! Or maybe I imagined doing yesterday fatality on Kitana by Baraka in which he tore her face off and eat her brain, or Kano killing Sonya by digging tulip made from bottle into her neck and before she fell to the ground he grabs her hand and start to dance while blood fountain comes straight out of her neck - thats so feminist right? Show this to ANY female and tell her that this game suffers from being feministic crap. Oh You wanted to watch at **** Well then I wont advertise You p0rn hub's (or even better - get in touch by real life partner) but go there instead and after You "finish it" come back to MK to play fighting game.
    But yeah, haters gona hate, I bet most of the reviews are from people who havent even played the game - which is a shame because I bet the user score would be similar to the one critics gave.    … Expand

    5. Очень понравилось, что добавили субтитры в момент начала поединка, раньше не всегда было понятно что шипят или рычат персонажи.
    6. Убрали бег, я конечно здорово привык к нему в 10й части, он был очень удобен. Но если честно, согласитесь странно когда ты бежишь на лежащего оппонента и тем самым двигаешь его своим бегом в угол. Игра немного сбила этот порой дикий темп, что на мой взгляд все же плюс чем минус.
    7. Наличие компании - да она есть и на этом спасибо. Да она абсурдная, да она порой даже смешная. Но она есть в игре где по сути главной целью является набить рожу своему оппоненту. При этом в играх вроде шутеров от компаний начинают отказываться чисто в целях экономии на проекте.

    Здесь много хейта насчет лутбоксов и кастомки, я его не понимаю. Наверное мною движут другие ценности и МК для меня это не игра про то как переодеть и украсить своего персонажа.    … Expand

    On top of having excellent, satisfying gameplay, MK11 gives the series a desperately-needed updating in terms of character design, breathing fresh life into its visuals and fresh respect into its portrayal of women.

    Whoa, just whoaaa...hold on a second, here. Am I reading ALL these reviews correctly??? Am I even playing MK11 here, or what? Because from what I have played it is damn well the best MK yet. The polish and love the developers have given this game can be seen all over the damn screen. If you loved MKX, then it's a no brainer. The game clearly stepped up a notch.

    Sorry, I'd have given it a 9 but the 10 goes out automatically to the INSANE 0's plastered all over this site. Clearly users have no clue how to review games. It's a great thing they are NOT official. Why am I not surprised, considering the controversy the game arose already based on the SJW garbage. *Facepalms* I can't believe we're even at this point....just sit back and enjoy an awesome game! Not everything always has to be about politics.

    Also, geez...don't gamers want to be rewarded for unlocking stuff? I mean, everything in the game is obtainable. They're not forcing you to pay. It has been this way since MK9, no one was saying **** about that (I still haven't unlocked stuff in THAT game because lack of coins....just didn't feel like earning them anymore.)

    Anyway, MK11 features the BEST Liu Kang, the BEST Johnny Cage, the BEST Scorpion and all the other characters are either on par or already give justice to their already iconic status.    … Expand

    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.    … Expand

    Es un excelente y sólido juego de peleas, 25 peleadores bien definidos, y una jugabilidad magistral. Aunque tienes la oportunidad de comprar por medio de micro transacciones con dinero real, trajes, movimientos u objetos, el juego también te permite hacerlo mediante la Kripta, o jugando en las torres, y no, esto no afecta para nada el juego ni tampoco lo convierte en un juego Pay to Win.

    Extremely fun to play and engaging when committing to a character. I'm also a massive fan of the new characters they've introduced namely Kollector who's a kombo loving beast. In general this is the best feeling mortal kombat for me, was just a joy to **** your opponents up.

    The campaign has more weight, narrative drive and spectacle than MK:X. In general the main campaign is by far better than I was expecting. Still a Hollywood-esque experience but with enough plot points and variations on old tropes in the franchise to have kept me engaged until the end. Additionally, aside from exposing you to new characters which I found was surprisingly good at landing a new kombatant into my character pool. I fondly remember getting my hands on kotal kahn and destroying everyone because his move-set just... Sort of clicked.

    The classic game modes make a return in all their splendor and glory, and after beating my first tower with Kollector I realised the individual dialogues are nicely fleshed out and satisfying to beat the last (and reasonably tough) opponent guarding the ending. Now... Onto the bad...

    The microtransactions in this game are very greedy. The customisation for each character is more extensive than ever and as a result the game forces many awesome weapon and character skins behind (now patched to be more reasonable) a grind or a plethora of premium currencies to "augment" your favourite touches to an already impressively beautiful character design. This is just .. disappointing but the gameplay more than makes up for it. It's such a fun feeling game I can get through the grind to unlock the skins for my favourite kombatants as I master my mains. But lastly... And more insidiously are the konsumables.

    Now as I understand it, by winning in towers and other fun classic challenges in the konquer game mode, as well as leveling up, gets you consumables in the form of actual in game advantage. From healing potions to special moves from other fighters... This is added to milk players that are getting frustrated with the games difficulty. Now there's both wrong with needing a hand to improve but there has to be a better way than microtransaction based konsumables that a bad player would not be able to acquire easily otherwise (as mentioned previously you must beat towers to actually get those). They can completely trivialise the fight and is by far the most hollow aspect of the game. Add a system to promote practice, learning to chain kombos, that some kombos are better than others at certain ranges, to learn multiple characters and using special moves to greater effect than simply spamming. This game's combat is the best it's ever been! It's the most deep also! So why leave a way to cheese the game? You can even get a konsumable to just flat out skip a fight. There has to be a better way to promote not so good players from growing in skill... And not like this.

    Since people barrage this masterclass game with 0's and extremely low scores it's only fitting I give it an obscenely high score. The game as it stands is an 8/10 if not 9/10 but the konsumables, grinding for awesome customisation and more greed brings it down.

    Overall, best MK thus far. Thoroughly enjoying myself with this one.    … Expand

    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]
