about the end of the story?

wtf is with the boss he is like Kratos combined with that one guy from diablo 2 with the hammer combined with Lenny combined with an American gladiator, yet he is so slow all you have too do is teleport every time he starts an attack what is that point of him being there?

and wtf is with the other parts of story mode, sindel kills everyone and i just watch everyone die, i want too kill people too, especially Ermac that ****ing jedi bastard, with his green force fields throwing me all over the damn arena. and then that one part near the end where raiden's gem breaks, that was like an outtake from that one part on the lord of the flies where they kill piggy and the conch breaks, but piggy comes back and beats the shit out of everyone for trying too kill him using god powers.
is story mode only good for learning how too play? cause there is no gore and the plot is nonsensical (which is mid ways style, except the gore part thats kind of outrageous)
and also there are shit loads of audio problems when they are talking, in the cinematics

The plot is more-or-less the same as it's been for the last 15 to 20 years, with a few alterations.

As for the gore, it wouldn't really make sense to have a lot of it in this story mode, at least not the way the story was written. A lot of the time, the characters you fight run off and come back later.

It would've gotten really old, really fast if you performed a fatality on each character, then Quan Chi ressurected them each time. If this didn't happen, and those characters stayed dead, story mode would've been really thin on content for the lack of fighting.

as far as teaching you how to play, thats an iffy. it throws you into battles with different players, forcing you to learn something about characters on the fly, if you call that a tutorial. challenge tower is not that much different than the story mode, just adds many annoying aspects to the gameplay. i never viewed it as challenging at all, just annoying and repetitive, and way too long.

as far as the quality of story mode goes, they kind of stepped on the feet of the history of the franchise. players who were not present in mk and mk2 were all of the sudden present and it made it seem like these players were active behind the scenes all along when that wasnt the case. the presentation and the wrinkles in the story were god awful if you ask me. the game was much more interesting just wondering how to put all the happeinings in the first three games together. netherrealms idea of telling it how it was was just odd and boring.

the only thing this game has going for it is the gameplay and character diversity. and thats a good thing. and its what keeps me playing for now.
