That makes sense. I just did MK1 this weekend, PS+ after all. I've never played X's story but did 9 and 11 and now MK1. I would agree 1 has the better story, even if it gets confusing with where characters go or what version of characters we are playing. So in the next entry, I'm also for something more grounded. We need new characters too, MK1 didn't have any new MK only characters did it?
So on this, MK1 (campaign, no way I'm finishing everything else). :P Racing through the PS+ games. MK1 was good but I think the because of the knowledge of having to remember I have a tag partner, I preferred MK11 overall, plus the customisation of the characters in MK11 was better, less grind just to get colours. |
Im replaying MK11 campaign, MK1 is definitely my favorite campaign in the series. I just hope the next MK game does not do any of this multiverse stuff. There were no new characters, unless you count the kameo characters, then there was two. Havik and Darrius.

One thing I really liked about MK1 was the campaign as well as the invasion mode, having the elemental hazards, (like ice cancels out fire, etc) really made battles interesting. I want something like this for the next game. I just hope that the next game gets longer support, Street Fighter six is entering its 3rd year of content, and MK1 is already done.
Currently playing: Mortal Kombat 11 (campaign), Hollow Knight (almost done), Resident Evil 4 remake, final fantasy 7 rebirth
Edit: The issue I have with the whole "multiverse" theme is that it makes everything almost pointless. Right now in MK11 the older scorpion dies, but the very next fight, you are fighting with as scorpion, just the younger version. IT makes all the deaths or whatever happens in these games almost meaningless. This is why I like MK1 story so much more than 11. I just hope that whatever the next MK game is, they focus on the micro and not the macro from a lore standpoint. Would be awesome to go back to the MK1-3 days but give it a campaign and then do a crypt/invasion mode, have the game run 3ish years with slowly adding DLC content while making the game more balanced and better. MK is very very close to having almost a their best in the series if they build the next game right, the fighting, combos, graphics, all feels so good in the past 3 games, they are almost there. My all time favorite MK game is Trilogy followed by MK1, but MK11 has the better roster. MKXL is also fantastic, however, im not a big fan of breaking each character down into 3 fighting stances, essentially locking out skills per choosen fighting stance
