How the frick did this game have so much content?
>62 fighters
>regular tournament mode
>create your fighter, you can create your own character with exclusive moves, costumes and other shit
>konquest, an entirely different game, with rpg/adventure elements
>motor kombat, a fricking kart game with unlockables and even online multiplayer
>UMK3 as extra on the PS2 version
And a bunch of other shit on the krypt that you can unlock, from concept art to little movies with character backgrounds. God I miss old games.

    I wish they copied the model of this game and its modes for MK12, just with less playable fighters maybe for the e-sports crowd

            Everything was fun, well crafted and had soul. Armageddon was trash and a sign of things to come. The fact they walked back the point of armageddon when rebooting the series just goes to show even the devs saw the writing on the wall.

    The story mode for this game was absolute trash, nobody gave a frick about those shitty new characters, all the fatalities in the game were also trash because of how large the roster was but looking back it seems way smaller today than it seemed back then, this game could have been the best mk game but they killed it, deception was better

    >How the frick did this game have so much content?
    Yeah because 0 Fatalities, one fighting style per character (down from two in the last game) A shovelware create-a-character system, and UMK3 on the 2nd Disc of the collectors edition is "Content" no. This is the worst mortal kombat game. have a nice day

      >Yeah because 0 Fatalities
      It had these dynamic fatalities. Worse than the flashy stuff but it was there and getting to the last level was actually hard.
      >one fighting style per character (down from two in the last game)
      Characters could fight with weapons or fists
      >A shovelware create-a-character system
      A system can't be shovelware
      >and UMK3 on the 2nd Disc of the collectors edition is "Content"
      it was on the same disc, at least on PS2.

        Cool. In the previous game characters had TWO fighting styles + a weapon. Can you read?
        >A system can't be shovelware
        Yes it can. Reused assets galore
        >it was on the same disc, at least on PS2.
        Then it was the only thing worthwhile on the disc.

    >62 fighters
    80% reused assets, voicelines, movesets, and costumes from older games
    >create a fighter
    see above, in fact this and the size of the roster was the reason the hated create a fatality system was added, no unique fatalities needed when you can just copy+paste the movements to every single fighter including bosses, especially when you botch some of them (see motaro)
    >konquest
    worse than shaolin monks and deceptions konquest but still better than NRS cutscene stories, it was a fun era
    >motor kombat and umk3
    not really necessary but pretty cool

    games back then had soul, even if the quality wasnt up to par with todays standards they were made for the consumer so they had much more stuff jam packed in
    nowadays games are made for journalists so the focus is on graphics and diversity

    Deception and Deadly Alliance had 2 unarmed fighting styles and one weapon per character. Armageddon reduced it to one armed and one unarmed style, with many unarmed styles spread among the characters who were in Deadly Alliance/Deception. Models from Deadly Alliance and Deception also were reused without any updates (although some characters like Reptile did get at least one new outfit),

    They also completely dumped unique fatalities which was dumb. They either should have done the same thing they did to fighting styles (spread the two fatalities from the last game to one fatality per character in addition to some new ones) or if possible should just have made it so each special attack had a "fatality" effect tied to it, like the brutalities in X/XI.

    Just shows how bad modern games are when a game from a tired franchise, desperately fighting for relevance, is much better and has much more effort put into it than the average goyslope.

      This game is literally just re-used assets from the previous games. They couldn't even make new fatalities for the characters, and the arcade endings are just the narrator giving a voiceover while all of the characters do the same animation on top of the pyramid.

      This game is low effort shit despite the meme mario kart knock-off

      Both of these games are almost all reused assets. Marvel 2 was b***hed about heavily at the time for being a lazy game. Morrigans sprite in CVS2 was from like 5 games before lmao.

      Nothing wrong with reusing assets imo. Tons of good games did it, from Half Life to Gran Turismo, Smash, Mario, etc.
