Mortal Kombat 11 looks impressive and it will probbaly have a (for fighters) high quality story mode:
Here some of the beautiful intro and win animations
Let's see what new(?) intros and win poses DOA will add in the coming months.
It's looking amazing, As for story MK always tends to have a good storymode, MK9 was great and MKX was really good too so I expect MK11 to be awesome too.

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Lol did you not like it? I definitely preferred MK9's over MKX's story since I think MKX's focused to much on the kombat kids but I still enjoyed it.
It was mediocre at best. I could tell it was more a stepping stone than an actual fullblown story. It rang like a prequel to me and I'm glad NRS proved me right. It was them setting things up for the second act, which we're all going to vastly enjoy more than it's older sister.
Much like I enjoy Cassie over Sonya. Because the girl is the literal embodiment of sass. She has more flavor in one still frame than Honoka had in the entire DOA6 Story Mode.
Could you imagine if TN had like... Half the budget for graphics that NRS has?

Lol at her coffee cup saying "Mokap Mokha",
And true Cassie Cage has so much character to her, All the MK characters do, It's exciting to see all their character interactions before battles with each other.
Also I noticed this is the Doa6 graphics thread lol not the MK thread.
@Tyaren you shoulda posted those trailers in there so we could have the MK discussion there. 
Lol, this is exactly what I had already written under my MK11 post above, but then deleted it again, because it just wouldn't be feasible for KT to pump as much money in a more and more niche title like DOA, sad but true.
Graphics/visuals look amazing. The story looks fucking awful.
Back on topic, DOA6's garish lighting is still my number one complaint with the game. I can't get over the fact that people become invisible cuddle fish when wearing white outfits, especially on the street stage. If they couldn't fix their crap lighting, they could have at least play tested that god-awful stage and realized it wasn't fit for shipping and just scrapped it.

Yeah even I can't turn a blind eye to this. Just last night I fought Nyo-Tengu in her white outfit with full coverage mask on road rage and actually had to pause the game and mess with my TV settings to see if I could see her. Fortunately after absolutely murdering the visual balance on my 4K I was able to actually see her.
Nice...someone took photos that I shared here, uploaded them to Twitter and got retweeted by the DOA6 official account, Koei Tecmo Europe and Koei Tecmo America...
As a reminder: It is common decency to at least credit the photographers, any creators, if you reupload their work. It would be even nicer to just ask if it's okay, especially when you actually know the original creator.

:/ I hate that people force you to watermark things these days. Not just that but you have to watermark them in a way that can’t be easily cropped.
Or they take your content and put their own watermark on it lmfao

The thing is they would probably still look like porcelain dolls in comparison. TN likely wouldn't want to push past the half-animu aesthethic.Much like I enjoy Cassie over Sonya.

As long as they're porcelain dolls in properly-lighted rooms, I'd be happy.

changing the aesthetic won't solve anything if the characters continue to have boring as shit personalities.
can't pin the blame on the aesthetic anyway, since there's no reason a heavily stylized artstyle shouldn't have room for expression. don't expect anything under KT's wings to know how to take advantage of it though.

Yeah, I probably should've added that they likely wouldn't want to push past half-animu animu in story or personality, either. Not given how popular that trio seems to be in Japan.

i'd say the personality issues extended WAY past that trio, long before they even came to existence

One time I agree with Brute again... wai-!
But seriously, I really feel like people overrate the stories of MK9 and MKX and I honestly feel that MKXI is going the exact same route:
Well-Written Stories, absolute shit of everything else.
I already know what some of you want to say so let me actually give you my brain space for a second:
Some of you already know my thoughts on DOA6... and to be frank, I use those same standards for every story I ever watch or read. I don't care how well-constructed something is, you can make everything as nice and neat as possible... but if your lore is compromised to hell and back, if your can't keep your shit consistent and you can't even be assed to make sure your world actually makes sense then I don't care about how good your story is written, it's shit to me.
This is why you see me give DOA5 and 6 this "weird pass" as some of you would say, but become extremely judgmental of Mortal Kombat and most of the other fighting games and even outside of that that I play.
For as weird as DOA's story structure is and how they didn't do a good job in making it fit or clearing events up... for me, it didn't wreck it's world-building or lore, actually answered some questions to a decent extent and made consistent sense most of the time(outside of a few outliers... but DOA isn't the only one who usually messes this up nor as badly... MKX). And honestly, I'm not sure where people praise the characters of MK more than DOA's
@NewWestFan Cassie has more personality than Honoka? Dude, both are bland as fuck and Cassie is literally a 2nd rate Cage as she mentions in the Story just like Honoka is a 2nd rate Raidou. And I would go into spoiler territory at the very least Honoka didn't piss me off as much as Cassie did on multiple levels so I won't.
But basically, MKX is definitely the point where Ed Boon honestly has no clue on where to take his characters and that's just me to be frank.
Rant Over.
