After what this series became MK9 or MK2011 was what the franchise needed, a complete restart. The story was suprisingly fun, didn't expect anything from a fighting game campaing but, Netherrealm succesed to make a fun story with a enteraining cast of characters and twists, but by the end it was a little bit dragged out. Also the difficulty was all over the place in the campaing, in the tower and in the arcade as well. My major problem with this game is the difficulty, most of the times the game was easy, but then there were insane difficulty spikes, like 1 to straight to 100. Beside that MK9 looks pretty good despite that it is 13 years old, of course some character designs are... interessting but hey, im not the one who will whine because of boobs amd asses.
