I always liked it, but mace the dark age is the best midway 3d fighter

its just ugly and boring compared to the 2d games. you could tell they had jumped the shark. that being said i still played the hell out of it.

i hated it back then but playing now its basically mk3 in 3d with less polish.
also early 3d.
and weapons.

i think if it got an umk4 after gold it would have been looked on super fondly.
even gold's roster is not quite there imo.

>>12060179
?

I will never understand how they claimed they wanted to go back to a more gritty atmosphere of previous games after MK3, but you have all this silly shit with animations during throws, over the top voice samples and just laughably bad movies in MK4. I guess they've managed to do that with how the arenas looked, but everything else just isn't there tone wise.

>>12060097
They're all bad

I played Mortal Kombat 1-3 and this got me to quit the whole series. I haven't bought another Mortal Kombat since.

This. The only tolerable MK game is that co-op one.

no, its actually great. fighting sweats dont appreciate lore and atmosphere, they hate having fun.

I had a crush on Shinnok as a kid and would draw pictures of us holding hands and kissing.

It wasn't as amazing as it was overhyped to be.

It's a troll.

>>12060097
No. It's just not that good. Still put hours into it seeing all of the fatalities.

>>12062127
I liked how evil he was compared to the other villains (at least back then). My favorite ending was the one where he killed Reptile just to be a dick. I always imagined that he'd have a soft spot for me though. His fatality plays into my squishing and sizeplay kinks.

It's a plane.

The silly shit of MK4 was unintentional, silly as it is. The game removed Friendships, and intentionally funny fatalities. MK3 had a lot of fun because the creators and fans were on the same page, understanding the tongue in cheek nature, but it still to some could seem like the series was getting too over the top compared to the original game

MK4 is hilarious, but it wasn't meant to be

Barely amusing. Interesting that home version was so close to it though and that made you want it.

It was cheesy like 1 - 3, but lacked any of the intentional silliness that made it famous. It also seemed like it drew aesthetic inspiration from the syndicated cheesy fantasy and scifi tv shows of the time. Like some low budget fantasy series you'd find on the air at 2 PM on a Saturday when all of the other local channels were airing movies and infomercials.

>Doesn't like Hercules and Xena
Beta alert. Also no I don't really get that from it. It's very like going back to MK2, every new character is a rehash replacement of the old... Tanya is just yellow Katana, Jarek is just boring Kano, Kai is just a black Liu Kang, Fuckin is not Raiden, etc etc. It has a slightly more gothic vibe, because it's set around Netherealm. If anything Outworld is much more reminiscent of sword and sorcery stuff

>>12063046
Not so much Hercules and Xena, but the Mortal Kombat syndicated series was what I had in mind. I tried checking it out one random Saturday afternoon and couldn't follow so I changed the channel.

Why would you need anything more than 1, 2, and ultimate 3?

>>12063180
you're really gonna diss my boi MK Gold like that

That show was weird

MK3 and UMK3 had male characters screaming "GATO PATO" (CAT DUCK) when caught in Cyrax's net.

>>12060097
Does Goro have four dicks?

>>12066367
No? Why would he?
He probably has 2.

>>12066409
so he's got the double dong?

>>12066425
I mean, it's a definite possibility. Human males have 2 arms and 1 penis, so a male being with 4 arms should, logically speaking, have 2 penises.
I don't think Ed ever gave an official answer about this matter though...

Bad as any mk game before "competitive" mk9. Fun as any MK game.

>>12060097
Jax's ending in MK4 never fails to make me laugh.

It needed my interest in the series at large. Didn't play another one.

it's technically MK5 because UMK3 should have been 4
