Watched every one so far, I love seeing your other games you cover as well
Not the end yet. You still have MK1 to cover in a couple months
You’re welcome man 👨
I love the idea of Shang Tsung being master schemer behind everything. Especially when played by Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.
He truly is the greatest in this game
I personally adore Rambo’s ending. Because when you think about from first blood’s version of the character, then you can see him saying no to rewriting history.
The simple fact that spawn is in it and he's voiced by the OG Keith David makes Mk11 my all time favorite.
That fact isn’t the only simple thing around here.
The final Mortal Kombat game takes place in alternate timeline. What a ride that was!
Crazy thing is, in this new canon since MK9, Liu Kang gets his arse handed to him by Shao Kahn, even though Kitana was able to beat him lol
Perfect how I found your channel yesterday and binged all the mk explained videos, and you upload the final episode literally the day after 😭
I hope you’ve enjoyed them all, thanks for watching! 🙏
I was halfway through watching the MKX video when the notification for this video came up and I thought excellent as I saw earlier today while watching previous videos that MK11 hadn’t been done and like a gift from the gods here it is. Thank you Don Critic as I only found your channel earlier today so I subscribed (hence why I got the notification) as I’ve enjoyed your videos. I know all this stuff and lore about the Mortal Kombat franchise as I’ve been a fan since 1992 but I’m so hyped for Mortal Kombat One I’m watching loads of Mortal Kombat videos on RUclips. Can’t wait to see your Mortal Kombat One video around October time
Thanks for watching them all and supplying me with some amazing comments to read 🙏
My favourite Mortal Kombat game so far I loved the choices of character outfits and the 3 gear customisations (wasn’t bothered about picking certain moves and glad that’s not returning for MK One) which hopefully is all gonna return for MK One. My 2 favourite characters Shao Kahn and Noob Saibot were in the game with new designs making them look better than ever especially Noob Saibot. Shao Kahn’s default design (just with blue colour instead of red and a different helmet) with the spikes on his left forearm and the talon like claws for fingernails looks amazing and I hope they keep that for General Shao in MK One, shame Noob Saibot won’t be returning as Bi-Han is Sub-Zero (fingers crossed for Kombat Pack 2 or 3) as that would make all my favourite 5 characters playable for first time since Armageddon, Shao Kahn/General Shao, Noob Saibot (if in Kombat Pack 2/3/4), Rain, Ermac and human Smoke (Human Smoke is much better than Cyber Smoke)
Those are some great features, I got my fingers crossed for you mate 🤞
I liked the choosing moves feature. It allows you to customize the character more and add additions to kombos
This story has some major issues (Sindel’s sudden change, Kronika’s plan, and the time travel stuff) but for the most part it was pretty cool and the gameplay was at least fun. Good video bud :)
It was just a way for them to reset everything so even if it had issue. I’d rather have already dealt with them, that way moving moving forward it’s built upon the lessons they’ve learned.
Every Mortal Kombat story has issues.
I agree completely.
A lot of MK11 had story moments and/or arcs that were incredibly frustrating and inconsistent. Geras bouncing back and forth between being unstoppable and being useless.
Sindel suddenly taking Shao Kahns side and claiming she killed Jerrard completely undos her entire character arc and reason for being in the cannon...
But I had fun, and I constantly kept saying "Man, this is great." throughout the entire game.
So I guess it's not so bad after all.
Breakaways and fatal blows were pretty lame imo. Played a lot of ranked and those were the 2 game play mechanics holding it back.
@@misterkeys2893it’s a fun story, but at the same time, it’s weird seeing Kitana being able to beat Shao Kahn, but Liu Kang not being able to lol
It’s also funny being able to fight Jax as Jax, but his future self not being affected by the damage the younger self does, even though every other future character is affected by the past one’s injuries.
The kustomization was kool I also liked how each character narrated their own ending
Absolutely adore this game, MKX is still my personal favorite, but the designs of the characters are top notch especially Shang Tsung and Liu Kang
Yeah, best version of Shang Tsung 👌
Installed MKXL after reading this comment and forgot how much fun it was. I think that was the peak of gameplay in the entire series for me. I just wish it had more combatants.
I liked this game more than the others in this generation. MK2 is still my favorite
Makes sense
@@maxramirez9955Yeah, similar since they’re both very slow and boring entries
@@mkultrafondler9159 mk2 is literally more fun and competitive than 11 is lol
@@maxramirez9955 100% agree
1:56 I like the feel of this one a lot. I think it's because it is slower and makes me feel like I'm playing as a kid again. Though the story is a mixed bag, some of the most koolest kostumes are locked behind a stupid drip feed, or you have to grind it out in the kombat league. It's not exactly the best way to go about extras, but the game is solid.
Thank you for being committed to finishing this series. I can't wait to see what's next!
Thanks so much mate!
You are very talented to be able to put these videos together, especially given how much ground you cover. Well done and keep up the good work
Thanks so much 🙏
watchin u grow since the first mk breakdown has been amazing gang keep it up
The one MK video I was waiting for you to do. MK11 next to MK 1 2023 is my favorite game.
such a great series! great job handling it’s lore, characters, reception, and legacy! 🐉
Loved the vid don critic. Amazing job reaching 20k subs. Hope you continue to make great vids. ❤❤❤
You nailed it, thanks for all the content !!
I started watching these videos like two days ago, so its cool the mk11 video was literally just made. Good stuff man tbese videos are amazing 👏
Thanks for watching them all! 🙂
Been waiting for this video! 🎉
Finally got to finish the video after starting it 9 hours ago before getting busy, the video was amazing as I knew it was gonna be, just keep on keeping on with all the amazing work Don
Thanks Peter!
Great video series man. Loved watching it!
Ive loved the detail you've put into this "explained" series. Good show, mate.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
These videos have been fantastic. Looking forward to Mortal Kombat 1 explained!
U explained this so well my brotha 👏👏👏👏 excellent job this video was flawless
Thanks Tristan!
I have been waiting for this one!!!!!!!
Another monsterous performance, great presentation Don Critic, thank you
Thanks mate!
Just got off work to this notification thanks 💪🏽
What a wild ride. Can't wait for MK1 Explained down the road
Much love bro. Love your mk videos. ❤️
Been waiting for this one!!
The Series now complete, where now Time will do tell with MK1
Great Series, lots'a love from Poland ❤
Dziękuję 😃
I'm glad I found this. It kept me busy for the day and now I'm more excited to see how the new MK universe unfolds tomorrow
Thank you for releasing all these informative videos 👍
Thanks so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed the series 😁
The mad man did it. He completed the saga.
Btw you excited for mk1? They still haven't showed Scorpion interactions with other characters, so he's gonna play a pivotal role in the story.
We reached the end! Yeah I can’t wait for MK1, I’ve been playing Sub Zero and Kenshi in the Beta, it’s very cool, I like the slightly faster gameplay than MK11 and the air kombat
Literally the last mk I owned was Deadly Alliance. I watched all your videos from them to present to catch me up for MK1. Can’t wait!
Thanks for watching Justin! Glad it helped you catch up 🙂
Amazing job. I really enjoyed this serie
Excellent video
Hopefully one day we well get a Mortal Kombat 1 video when it is all wrapped up
Let’s get that next installment- Mk1!
Your videos are so good. It baffles me that you don't have more subscribers.
Thanks Michael!
Never clicked a video so fast. Killer series, Don!
Haha 😄 thanks so much!
I was hoping you could add timestamps
I made timestamps for you 🙂🙏
Just started watching the whole series 2 days ago. Thanks Don*
No, thank you! 😃
One of mortal bests.This part is definitely the fastest and smoothest
Love this series! Would you be open to going in-depth on each MK's story in the future?
Glad you enjoyed the series! I don’t think I’ll be covering the stories on their own, the idea with these Explained videos is to fit the lore, narrative and the gameplay side all into one expansive video. There are already a ton of channels that cover just lore in these games, I wouldn’t want to tread on anyone’s toes by regurgitating that similar content 😄
This was the first MK game i took seriously and contioudly played ranked on. I was hyped for this game since day 1, remember that i mained Jade since the beta (too bad other noob jade players are toxic and gave her a bad rep)
I didnt mind the slower pace, but i hated that the breakaways punished you for getting a combo off. The story was interesting but a bit dull, couldve done more with certain characters, but that was partially fixed with aftermath. This game seriously needed an update for krypt as well. Other than that it remains one of my favorite MK games.
I'm slightly sad that this is the end (for now at least), but this was a great retrospective! Very much looking forward to Spider-Man and whatever else you plan on covering!
Thank you Michael! 🙏
SM sux
Mk1 👍🏽
MK11 will always be my favorite because the trailer brought back the original movie theme.
The reveal for mk11 was so freaking hypeee😭
Been waiting for this video!!!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩
It’s here!! 🤭
Yessss. This is such a great series.
The Krypt was the best thing about MK11, really enjoyed it. Though collecting all the heads was a straight up pain in the ass
Finally MK 11 : ) ... watching now
Enjoy!
29:48 My man did NOT SAY ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏
That is his name 🤦🏼♂️😄
The story & gear customization is mixed(especially with all the retcons & lack of certain characters), but the gameplay is excellent & the voice acting is top-notch.
I hope to see mortal Kombat 1 soon
You Made It To The End! 👏🏾💯
Wow thank you so much for your support! May you have the best day! 🙏
@@DonCritic No problem fam. I've enjoyed these MK breakdowns. They help make a workday go by. Thank you & take care.
I love Mk11 and I honestly believe despite some issues, it is one of the best MK games ever.
Nice work with the series. Would you consider making entries for MK: Shaolin Monks or the MK movies and TV series as well?
Glad you like the videos! Shaolin Monks I’ve covered already, you can find that one in the Mortal Kombat Playlist on my channel 🙂 the movies and TV shows I don’t think I’ll cover, they can be a nightmare for copyright reasons on RUclips and my interests are more with the video games. Along with the narrative and lore, I like to talk about the gameplay mechanics and bonus modes/playable characters, something that isn’t possible with the movies/shows
Baaaabe!! There is a new Don Critic MK video!
THE TIME HAS COME
Now, next month or so, MK 1 explained can't wait for that 🙏
Me too! 😃
Quick question. If the young characters were pulled from right before Kung Lao was killed in MK9, why is Erron Black with them?
Very good question, according to NetherRealm Studios, he was part of Shao Kahn’s guard when he was emperor
I loved the gameplay, guest characters, fatalities, stages, the custom variations and the characters banter. I did NOT like how they treated Sindel, the fact that the default forms of some of the characters were their stupid revenants, the Call of Duty style storyline, the Krypt, the endings, Sonya's entire altered moveset, and the fact they took away the run button. This was also the last MK Game I spent real money on, just to get everything. And the Switch port didn't look too bad, but HOLY CRAP did they drop the ball on MK1.
One Of My Least Favorite Mortal Kombat Game.
9:11 Shang Tsung & Quan Chi. Motaro was the LAST fight, but Shao Kahn broke his neck almost immediately afterward.
This series is awesome. Now that your done with mortal kombat at least for now. I still think your content can expand to other games. Great format will continue to see your channel grow
wow this awesome i buy all mk games and now mk 1 is coming out awesome.
Aight so we gon have Mortal Kombat 1 explained in four weeks time?
Certainly! 🙌😃
Amazing🎉🎉🎉🎉🔥👑
I love the Art Style, Color Palette and overall Aesthetic of MK11. Reminds me so much of MK3 in the old games. Never cared much for the look of MKX, as if Gore and Gritty means muted colors. Nature is Vibrant & Violent, and so is MK11. I love almost all of the visual character redesigns.
I will say the story has some problems. Plus I like Sonya & Cassie Voice Actors from 10. Especially Cassie's done by Ashly Burch. The character has much more personality. But that's just my opinion.
It's crazy, sorry...I mean krazy how far Mortal Kombat has come
Although there were heavy retcons applied to some characters and to the narrative the game is still a good time. My only complaints are the grind and the cutscenes were far too long sometimes, it didn't feel as balanced as MK9 or MKX or even the Injustice games. But man, I'm EXCITED for MK1.
I really liked mortal kombat 11 it was really good game and how fly my favorite part of the story had to be with sub zero quai liang and hanzo hassasi scorpion team up which is really awesome and tons of fun at least in my opinion.
Neat. Guess it’s time for new franchises now?
45:03 Still got the moves.
😂
Finally...
Woot woot!
Do Mortal Kombat 1 explanation
Is it weird that I love watching these even though I have the games ?😅
Not at all, thanks so much for your support!
Was fun but Shao Kahn has no reason to be getting beat by these characters alone
I think the customizations of characters was overload like MKX Had it right with 3 outfits and 3 various styles or add ons i just think for how weak Konica is it doesnt offer the replay value of a MK 9s ladder and boss battles
Great video! This is a very divisive game for me.
Graphics and designs are gorgeous, but gameplay felt downgraded...
And SO GRINDY!!
Please, make an Explained series about Guilty Gear!
I’ll be sure to cover Guilty Gear in the future!
"sonya is voiced by american wrestler ronda rousey " LOOOOOOOOLOLOL
She is an American professional wrestler? I must be missing the joke? 😂
@@DonCritic haha i found it ironic how ppl view her that way, techincally she would consider herself as a judo fighter does MMA that can box. but ppl think she wwe anyways lol
@@kanyeeast42033 I never watched her in WWE, she was after my time, but the first line of her Wikipedia page reads American Professional Wrestler so… 🤷♂️
@@DonCritic haha i understand, which unintentionally made it funny for me, cuz they tried so hard to market her as the baddest female ever, they said she could beat Mayweather in boxing LOL all to be years later known as an wrestler lol
i watched every MK video in this series! Im just sorry how this game despise of been truly amazing will be remebered by the many gameplay problems NRS had the chance to solve but abandoned the project too early, so much potencial was lost here, yet i love this game and i will always remember it for the good things it did =)
I had no idea there was a Switch version of 11, no wonder they doing a Switch version for MK1 too, I mean the Switch is starving for fighting games so I see why they did it.
But yeah I think my only problem with the game is how they messed with Sindel's lore, can't tell you how pissed I am at that change, also honestly I wished they brought back EVERY character of the Reboot era, make this game the Ultimate MK3/Armageddon of the Reboot series, including making Seerena, Li-mei, and Kintaro who only gotten story appearances but never playable
I never played this one, still enjoy X but the story was pretty good
I think this game gets more shit than it deserves… I love it played over 600hrs. I’d say that at least idk 100hrs I’ve spent going thru every character making two variations both fully customized with matching gear for fav skins. The presentation and cinematic is def the best part better in a way than mk1 imo. I think the gameplay is fun too though I’d agree not the best of new era games. Nice video!
I learned fighting games from this one but X is my favorite of the series
Can you please do a lore on Piggsy from Manhunt (2003), the cannibalistic chain saw guy wearing a pig head who is a sub boss like Goro from MK series.
I’d love to do an explained series on Manhunt in the future
@@DonCritic Thank you, please do analyze it, it's one of the goriest and most brutal and controversial game ever made. Subscribed, will eagarly wait for your Manhunt lores.
I must be one of the only people to like the Sindel switch. It wasn't well executed but her being evil was fine
whether you like the switch up or not, at least we can all admit the execution was poorly and i mean poorly executed
I don’t usually mind characters switching sides and all but considering Sindel has already been used as a “brainwashed” villain it seemed like a weaker take. Especially her relationship with Kitana.
you are
After watching this series, what I gathered from it is the game shouldn't even be called Mortal Kombat? The last winner of the MK Tournament was Liu Kang in MK2.... in 1993. Everything else has been either a battle for earthrealm, or retelling of MK2.
We haven't seen any new plot development regarding "Mortal Kombat" in 30 years
Me personally I love mk11 and mk deception the most all mk games were good but I feel those two are the very best besides Shaolin monks 😂
Spawn an terminator were so cool in this game
Agreed!
@DonCritic man your channel is amazing, though!it's a lot of things you break down. it helps me understand what I've been playing for sometime now
@@jerrymitchell8666 thank so much Jerry!
Don't think we're finish because we got mk 1 coming out soon
Can you do the resident evil series next
Resident Evil has been heavily requested, so next I’m gonna cover Spider-Man and some other smaller franchises like Killer Instinct, but around Autumn time, I’ll start Resident Evil 🙂
Fujin had the best chapter in the game
Agreed!
Me like it!
Hey don critic just wanted to say u make really great videos and r really fucking underrated.
Thank you 🙏
