Apparently SONY is more interested in WB Games. And even then they just want certain assets.
Speaking of which... Legacy Kollection got me excited. I am so hoping for 3D Era... Gods if they add 3D Era into this Kollection, I will be the happiest I have been in 10 years, when it comes to MK.
LOL Wow. I really want to say I didn't see this coming, but oh boy, these guys. Merge now split... Gods. Idiots. Well... it is what it is. That's what you get, when you have suits manage creative entertainment.
Pretty much. These imbeciles don't understand, that by increasing prices to 80-90, they will make indie market much more appealing. Any decent game at 50 will decimate corporate opposition. People will just look elsewhere. These geniuses just put a noose on their neck.
I see AAA crash for sure. Indies on other hand will get the people, that don't wanna spend 90-100$ for games. Simple market readjustment. I believe creativity will blossom again.
Yep. My bet is on this. That's the usual play. Take that tiny remnant of content and stretch it out to absurdity, while having people hang on a empty hope. Typical corporate.
I can already see the same people who were drooling and screaming before MK1 launch "OMG this is looking to be the best...
That's pretty much it. I imagine they will just throw already done content to stretch out until the end of the summer and call it a day. They definitely want people to show some interest during EVO (as minimal it is) and once they milk out every possible penny, they will announce the end of...
Well... EVO registration numbers came up. MK1 is dead fucking last. What a surprise.
Yeah. They are toast. WB/NRS were betting hard on Esports scene.
I still don't understand to this day, though. WHY? MK had biggest player base. Could have made money from making adventure games with MK brand...
Yeaaaah. I am easily betting that if NRS announces anything this year, it will be DC related. Either Injustice 3 or something DC related to Gunn's universe.
The problem is that you can put all guest characters in the world, but if the game itself has nothing to offer for the casual player, then they won't even bother with it. Even if it was on sale. MK1 has attracted the maximum amount of people it could. It got all the hardcore fans, it got the...
I am basing my assumptions on sales data and the fact that James Gunn talked with NRS (and dude is busy rebuilding DC brand, so MK is the least of his interests).
Also competitive scene this year will be the last indicator about the interest in MK1. Cause casuals don't care for MK1. There is...
Yeeep. Pretty much. I really doubt they will be making any more KP content for MK1. Not after the current performance. MK1 is selling half of what MK11 sold by Year 2. And WB sure as hell don't like seeing that on their graph.
Mortal Kombat in kids game. I mean don't get me wrong. All of us here have been playing MK since we were kids, but I just find it funny how they market a game like MK in a game that is targeted for younger audience with family friendly filter.
I mean while it is pretty old news (they already talked about this earlier), it doesn't change the fact that if the next game will be MK, they will be in deep shit.
No more brand recognition to save them. Now they are back to being the mere mortals, like any other game. They have to work hard...
You know what would help them? If they stopped pushing older audience away in pursuit of the new one. They kept reinventing the wheel with each game so much, that entire MK community is fractured into like 6-7 different groups (Traditional OG fans, 3D Era fans, NRS Era fans, Variations fans...
It ain't just WB fault. NRS has equal amount of blame to share if not even more. If they stopped trying to REBUILD ENTIRE GAME from ground up, they would have more time for other elements. But nah. They KNOW that they have limited time to develop a new title and still choose to develop the game...
