I'm curious as to why you think EA or 2K can do anything with the MK franchise that WB's didn't already try? How will they succeed where WB's have failed? If all these greedy publishers are the same (thats what I keep hearing over and over ) than what's the difference?
The same as in "only one thing that motivates them". Doesn't mean their methods are also exactly the same. WB could print outfits, just as SFV. Every original MK outfit, every 3D Era outfit. 5 bucks per costume.
Same with intros/outros. New ones could be introduced on monthly/3 month basis. Yet, nothing. They drop a kombat pack there and there. Put couple of outfits with expansion pack and here is your content. Kombat League skins are just different colors.
They have 30 years of costumes to pick and yet??? You wanna give me one logical reason as why they aren't bringing them back? (Nobody with brain is gonna buy "From the goodness of their heart") How come other fighting games can make new outfits, but MK is this special kid in the class that thinks he is cool cause he does everything opposite, than everyone else?
Here is their reason. They are playing "mature and respectful" card.
2K or EA won't allow that to get in their way. If they can resell the same game over and over without any shame (with different year in the title), then exploiting people's nostalgia is easy peazy for them.
I am over with MK either way. Doesn't matter who buys it, but if I were to pick my poison I would rather pick EA/2K. C%nts would charge like crazy, but at least I could get the damn options. Unlike WB with their "PROGRESSIVE" views, which involves limiting options and content just to be "MATURE AND RESPECTFUL".
