MORTAL KOMBAT X Review


             The Mortal Kombat Franchise is back, now with more

blood, flesh, and brutal action.

           
            
              Mortal Kombat is one of the biggest franchise of fighting genre in the Video Game World. Maybe lot of you doesn't know that Mortal Kombat is actually the video game that make rating system to be created.This is of course because the amount of gore and brutality of this series.And after the last game of this franchise come out 4 years ago,now they back with more "FATALITY" action.
               Okay i just mention that this game is the one that make rating system to be created,if you want to know the reason it's simple, this game is.....ummm.......yeah brutal and don't know mercy.But hei, isn't that the reason why we love this game.Well without further explanation about the history let's begin the review.

    Gameplay:
                Okay, so what about the gameplay? to be honest i find in 2011 Mortal Kombat that some character have a difficulties to control than other and my favorite Liu Kang in my opinion is one of them.Not only that, i even find that you can theoriticaly create an unlimited combo using Kung Lao,yeah that's only in my opinion,still Mortal Kombat 2011 is one of the best fighting game ever.Now in Mortal Kombat X Netherrealm Studio once again brought you an improvement.What is the improvement ? based from the experience from my first play,now the Character feel more realistic when fight,their move is more dynamic and you will find that make a combo in this game is more easier.the combination of the button is more flawless, for the fatalitity now for the new player they can get fatality done in simple way using easy fatality.So i can say for sure that this game can be depth for the veteran player to master but also friendly to new player.Oh yeah i forgot to mention that this game is like combination of Injustice and Mortal Kombat 2011 so if you already playing that's two game i am sure you will find this game amusing and fun to play.For the last Section of the gameplay i want to tell is that now every character has 3 different style of fighting,but it's different than in Mortal Kombat: Armaggeddon, you can't change the style in when you  fight,oh and not every character have dramatically change of their move when using different style.For instant example, i use Sub-Zero,now his ability to create his ice clone and ice weapon cannot be use in 1 style instance they are the separate style of his.For other example is Scorpion now he have the choice in his fighting style beetween using his dual sword,hell minion, and flame technique.For the fatality and X-ray section i will describe it in Visual part.


    CyroMancer is one of Sub-Zero Style
 
Audio :
               I can't say much about the audio, i think the score that Netherrealm studio prvide in game is good enough but i can't say that it's fanatastic too.For the voice acting, every character voice is well enough i say,and i like the voice of raiden Liu Kang and Kung Lao especially,but beacause i didn't care so much about the dialogue in story mode so i can't say for sure about the Quality.

 Story :
            Story mode for Mortal Kombat X i think is one of the best story mode in the fighting game.It's not all about you go there ,and then fight him,win then fight next one.NOPE,it's not that simple,it's have a depth story and eventhought it's don't have story like RPG it's still great.I like especially about the twist that ex-Mortal Kombat champion Liu Kang is actualy one of the antagonist here.

Graphic:
             Now the last part is abou graphic.Because i play in pc,i hear from many forum that there is so many  bug and glitch.But i never see one in my gameplay.For the texture and character design i think it's already represent the Next-Gen quality,the environment is beatiful,character face is have a great detail,the animation and effect is so great.For pc there is some option like bloom and blur effect,yeah still that is a little option for graphic in pc.Now about the lack of graphic,the most uninteresting part of the graphic is that cutscene in the movie,how to describe it? well it's like that there is Framerate drop happen,pop in texture(also when fighting) etc,but not in level that will annoying your gameplay.oh yeah about the Fatality and X-ray move i mention earlier,it's the main show and the best thing of this game.Every character have a 2 fatality and 5-6 bruttality,oh i forget that brutality return in this game.The animation of all this move is Gory,amazing,beatiful and bone cracking(i stiil don't know how they all can fight when their backspine is already broken).There is still exist that annoying krypt section to unlock fatality.


Verdict:
            Even after all praise i give to this game,i still think that this game is have so many weakness,like overpower character,Character DLC that i think little unfair and,and little poor optimization for pc version.Regardless all of that,this game is undoubtly is the best fighting game of 2015 for now.That,s all i can tell you i hope this review can help you.If you want more professional critic for the pc version you can read here:
