Although this exists in parts in my MK10 story thread, I thought of compiling it here for additional feedback and for those who do not visit the writing section. This thread can also be used for sharing all the storymode ideas anyone else has got which can be compiled and discussed here till perhaps MK10 is released.
As for my idea was concerned it was created jointly by Vigilante Fire Dragon and me. The concept revolves mainly around the MK9 storymode, where the story progresses through the viewpoints of various characters. Along with this we have added certain elements of the challenge tower so that the storymode is much more unique and more entertaining so that it does not feel like just 1 vs 1 or 1 vs 2 fights with cinematics in between like the Mk9's storymode. Also since we can reasonably presume that the next MK game will feature multiple massive battles (since the Netherealm will attack Outworld and Earthrealm) we thought that adding generic non playable grunts to have that epic feel of the story.
As far as the story is concerned, it is directly based on the story/plot I have written at this link below. I recommend that you read it so that you fully understand the flow of the chapters.
