I’d just like to take a moment to mention that in my first match of Mortal Kombat X, I managed to pull off a Fatality just by mashing a couple of directions and hitting a button. It was complete luck, but somehow I found Jax ripping open Reptile’s head and stuffing a cigar into it like an ashtray. Almost immediately, my brother accused me of looking it up on the internet beforehand -- the greatest of sins to be committed when trying out a fighting game raw. (Though it’s worth noting he spent a fair amount of time with vanilla Marvel 3before our inaugural match.)I think at that stage, he drastically overestimated how much I cared about winning. As I’ve said, I’ve never cared about Mortal Kombat, and anyone who assumes that I hate it is justified in doing so. I’m not saying that anyone who does like it is wrong; it’s just that it isn’t for me. I’ve got an armada’s worth of biases, and unfortunately they’ve kept MK from even setting sail on the metaphorical ocean.
But hope springs eternal. Maybe this, NetherRealm’s latest attempt to bring in new fans and old loyalists, andoffer up the TRUE next-gen fighting game, is the chosen one. Does it have what it takes? If nothing else, can it win me over at last?
Well, let me say this to start: I think I get Mortal Kombat now.
