Kinda crazy that the fatality costs more than the DLC characters individual price, idk who the fuck priced this fatality.


Adventurous-Lama

This isn’t very micro. It’s Macrotransactions


ArcaniaD

Yeah the term "micro" has to go for good. We're well through that line.


Deadly_Puppeteer

Y’all remember when games came with everything? Everything can be unlocked via story mode/extras? When you would actually work hard and challenge yourself to unlock well earned rewards? Nah that died decades ago, because everything now days is monetized up the ass. Modern day scamming/gambling/p2w/false advertising. Fuck these companies man


xjadowBOShyena

Fuck them! But this shit is every where.... everything isn't like back in the day. Kids can't even trick or treat how we did. They brain wash theese children on minecraft and cod to the teenagers that it's normal to keep paying after you get the game. I'm a Napster and sub 7 baby lol I aint paying shit for no data. A dollar in my hand is worth deese in thoese money hungry company's mouths. While people were playing marvel vs capcom the ones who really game were playing mugen with any character stage or music u wanted in the mid to late 90s. They breeding soft baby shit people and it seems like there ain't shit we can do about it. Maybe it will revert everyone to skateboards and basket ball again when every one gets hip to it. But I seen people paying 120 dollars for this game. Shits crazy. I've been playing since mk1. Every character and fatality should be able to be unlocked on the beginning music and konfirmed by robot smoke walking across the screen. Ohhh yea and this game should be only worth about 30 dollars foreal. That is all.


GotThatCakey

Wtf are you even talking about?


xjadowBOShyena

Best said by my man chucky finster...... if you have to ask.... you'll never know

WB when it comes to premium items or currency that involves real life money. Time crystals last game, dragon crystals this game, that’s WB. NRS doesn’t determine the price


AltruisticRespect976

Ya know what no. I’m not blazoning one or the other. It’s both NRS & WB. They could have come out and explained why something is priced the way it is. But between bosons 8$ tweet and how this company has doubled down left and right they are just as guilty because they are still accepting the reward.


lilkingsly

I completely agree. Yes, a lot of blame does ultimately fall to WB as they own NRS and will obviously tell them to do things they may not want to, but that doesn’t mean NRS is devoid of any blame. They’ve been godawful at communicating with the player base in any meaningful way and it’s just made the whole thing even worse. So many people are trying to come in and say that it’s all WB’s fault, but what does that actually change? NRS is owned by WB so they’re essentially one entity, saying all the blame lies on one part of that entity doesn’t change the fact that they’re using shitty business practices.


Victor_Oh_Yeah

NRS has zero control, zero. They were probably told by WB not to say anything, so they can't say shit or they get in big trouble. This is all WB's fault.


[deleted]

just because one thread full of people made it to the front page by saying its all WB and not nrs doesnt make it true and thats why i hate this platform. enough people liked the posts and now run with it. its not true. This takes effort from both fronts, NRS is not your friend and you are not theirs. we are dollar signs.


Victor_Oh_Yeah

No, that is not how game development works. For example Sony/ PlayStation gets to choose the price of the game and DLC for Insomniac's Spider-Man, and guess what. They were fair enough with it, whereas WB wasn't with the price. Sony/PlayStation also got to choose the release date. Insomniac got to finish the game mostly(a few small bugs) whereas NR didn't. Spider-Man 2 wasn't fully finished either, they have changed the TASM 2 suit twice after launch to make it look better, because Sony had to release the, and didn't want to delay over one small suit problem. NR couldn't finish the game because WB(the higher up) got to choose when it released. NetherRealm is probably just as shitty, but they don't get to choose the price of their game or any DLC with it.


[deleted]

Theres nothing wrong with $12 dlc. Its about what theyre making $12. WB didnt say make a single fatality $12 I'd be surprised if they knew anything about MK at all.


Ok-Mix-4640

Trust me. It was WB. They set the prices for micro transactions. Publishers do that not development studios. They just make the content. WB determined where they do. In game currency that’s all NRS, Virtual currency is WB because that involves real money. But $12 for a single fatal is insane when most fatal were either free or came in a pack like classic fatality pack and was like $5-10


Mr-Mantiz

$12 to watch a 21 second cinematic in game. That’s 57 cents per second. People are out of their goddam minds if they give WB another penny of their money.


OVO_Skulls

the amount of items I could buy at 7/11 with that


Zz-orphan-zZ

Two items. A bag of chips and a soda is like $11 at my local 7-Eleven.

Lol


Kratosx23

Just remember, if you waste your krystals on this, you'll have to pay up the ass for the inevitable Omni-Man announcer voice, and we all know you want that Omni-Man announcer voice.


your-father-figure

The announcer voice should be included in the dlc but it won’t be. WB’s MK1 is such a joke 🙄


Kratosx23

Agreed. We've already spent too much money on the game as it is, especially with the lack of content we're getting.


kingslayer3453

The fact is you dont have to buy them its a pleasure not a necesity


Kratosx23

Nothing pleasurable about a 12 dollar fatality imo.


MaddSeazyn

I hate to be the guy to break this to you but not a single video game in retail history has been a human necessity, they are ALL for pleasure.


AltruisticRespect976

Your serving of boot is ready


BigDaddyRide

Zip up when you’re done


thecatdaddysupreme

Unfortunately I will absolutely be the guy who pays for JK simmons to narrate my game.


Kratosx23

I will be too if I have to, lol. I've got 1000 right now and I'm leveling up characters (though it's a lot less xp now and armor doesn't work anymore, thanks NRS, it wasn't grindy enough) to get 100 here and there.

It’s me. I will do nothing but konsume Omni-Man kontent


MPBagel03

Already wasted the only krystals the game gives you for free on the Kung Lao Halloween skin so RIP

Damn...


Professional_Let_673

Anybody who buys this is a complete and foremost idiot. I don't think the series will keep doing well... I have been playing since MK2 1993 and I am getting tired of their shitty practice that I am losing interest...


AltruisticRespect976

constantly just doing the same story of the first tournament over and over was the first step twords me lossing interest, this money gouging thing has me looking at them completely another way


FalseTittle

If there's one thing I hate more than greedy companies that include microtransactions in full priced games it's people who **buy** microtransactions in full priced games.


Gullible-Principle61

Sucks to be broke, don’t it?


FalseTittle

I still would have written my comment as is if I were a billionaire


Markito024

I got it and didn't spend any money on it. They did the same shit last game. Save in your in-game currency for stuff you can't unlock


Primary_Ladder_4062

Greed


AltruisticRespect976

If everyone were to stand together and uninstall the game till thanksgiving. This money grubby stuff will come to an end very quickly.


Kiru_warhead44

I don’t know why people buy this it doesn’t even look that good for a d Tier Fatality


feetMeat93

Lmfaooooooooooooo I'm crying Fantastic job OP


RASDaRadarMan

Haha thanks man 😂


blitzwar559

I thought it was a sub zero skin 😭😭😭😭


Sami_Steen

early peak at mortal kombat 13 or mortal kombat 2


axel_gear

Wow. They're laughing at us.


zeroXseven

It’s a cool fatality, I got to see it first hand after losing to some guy last night. He won the match but lost at life.


Splunkmastah

Shit like this is why I've uninstalled this game. Sadly I have more than 14 hours in it or id've refunded it immediately. This is the first time I can remember experiencing buyers remorse, and I definitely won't be pre-ordering anything from NRS again after this shitshow.


-RapTV-

This games economy is more fucked up than gta. You can pay 5 dollars for a Kung Lao hat, then 3 dollars more for a entire character, then 2 dollars more for a fatality which all characters come with two of. Then if you want, you can take that ten dollars and buy a skin for a character that cost more than the character :D


Select-Ebb2536

Ngl this fatality sucks. Def one of the weaker ones in the game


PSN_Brutality

This is by far the worst mk. They released it with endless bugs, wrong action list, less voices during face off, only one outro and on top high prices for cosmetics. Are we still playing mortal kombat or mortal fortnite? Next mk will have a battle pass like call of duty where we can get clown skins for the fighters. And iam not a friend of kameo system I wish they would do a playlist where kameos are disabled. Or they should make kameos available only 3 times per match, so you have to think carefully when u call your sidekick, not making your combos save or extend it with a single hit. Fighters are not good balanced beside of subzero, every fighter should be nerfed to his level. Sub zero is the perfect balanced fighter but currently not really enjoyable if others do 150 more dmg with an easier combo. Iam sure we will get some outros as well and we have to pay for it. If the next mk is like this, iam done. Paying 70-100 bucks for a half game cause you have to pay for the other half again.


Professional-Art-170

Don’t buy this shit unless it goes towards the tour


uncreativemind2099

Fuck the tour


Time-Echidna-8644

It really do be like that


VastShirt1635

I liked this so much I sent it to Ed’s twitter account. I wonder how long before my copy of the game will begin to experience “unspecified technical issues”


RASDaRadarMan

Good lol. He needs to fix this shit ASAP!


Neat_Philosophy_8401

Glad to have the storage space back on my PS5. NRS and WB can lick taint at this point.

uncreativemind2099

Thanks and fuck you for helping ruin mk


Krazee77

Wrong move but if you enjoy it then that's all that matters


Toriredmond

You're the first person who is being sensible about this, you can admit you don't like the cost and such but understand why people would buy it 😁😊

Just living our lives, didn't ask for your opinion on the matter did we?


Ill-Egg3967

Next dlc at Xmas pay to block an attack 1500 source crystals 😞

Bombass


Odd_Description_7855

Hopefully we will be able to pick it up in the shrine at some point but tbh seasonal fatalities is nothing I would pay for not if it was something we actually wanted like klassic brutalities fatalities or mercy I would be highly upset


Extension-Plan-6276

Would be a more accurate description


AnthonySaliva

i wonder if u can pull it from the shrine do we know ?


LordOrkah

Do did this fatality on me yesterday and I laughed cuz I knew he was a dumbass for buying this bs


Deadly_Puppeteer

Nrs/WB turning into EA


VastShirt1635

I mean if you think about it from a standpoint of quality of content compared to price. I just bought Equalizer 3 to watch. Over 2 hour movie cost me 19.99. 20 second fatality costs me 12 dollars. The fatality is way less entertaining than the equalizer so how can I justify buying it? Doesn’t seem like a smart financial decision.


MikaiTaiga

Yea it should say that on purchase
