Honestly, I think I understand why: The body horror. The Predator skinned it’s victims. It must have triggered Syzoth’s PTSD from his time as Shang Tsung’s slave.
0:44 " Two ninjas and a fire god, showed up at my door " Speaking of ninjas, I love how Kitana, Mileena and Rain aren't really confirmed as ninjas or assassins in this game but are still wearing masks either way and I know I know they have to wear masks anyways cuz it's one of their most important trademark since their debut in MK
The price of losing how family at a young age meant that his life would avoid the original sacrifice, allowing him to be more... himself. And human, for that matter.
I hope Kenshi and Mileena become friends in DLC or sequels. Mileena: “I tell people you were blinded by my beauty.” Kenshi: “Ha! That’s one way of putting it.”
There's actually one more as well, with one between Kenshi and Cage. The dialogue goes like this. Kenshi: "I am NOT betting Sento!" Cage: "*chicken imitation*" It's goofy and also a callback to where Kenshi asked Cage to bet sento on the fight between Raiden and Kung Lao's fight to be the champion.

@@KossuthGAMINGWe know little to nothing about his father. Maybe he despised him because he was abusive or much harsher with Bi Han than the others to prepare him to take over the clan when he passed. Not enough info
A couple things I’ve noted so far. 1.everyone, even Shang Tsung is polite (more often than not super humble) 2. Shang Tsung was legitimately caught off guard by Titan Shang. 3. Shang even separated from the story would’ve still tried to save the timeline despite this timeline screwing him over 4.Reptile seems to get along with everyone except reiko and bi-Han. 5. Bi-Hans only regret from the story was the death of Sindel 6. Raiden (Elder God) and Liu Kang both doubted Johnny’s abilities as anything more a representative of Earthrealm lol 7. Reptile is terrified of Predator lmao could this be a fear of the creature itself or does Outworlder’s have a concept of movies?
4:384:515:175:235:305:50 Seeing these lets you really see what Syzoth was thinking about getting the Earthrealmers home, and how he can do it this time to get the same result without disrupting the festival.
I love the reference of how when Raiden was Elder god, Liu Kang doubted Johnny's ability and when Liu Kang was the new Elder god and Raiden the mortal, Raiden had doubts of Johnny
There are few things you misses, like Kitana talking about Mileena and Tanya relationship, all Nitara things, Smoke wanting to visit Madam Bo with Raiden, etc
Reptile is like the best example of that here. In the previous games, he was always a major villain but now, he's one of the purest characters in this game lol
I agree for the most part. The last 2 or so chapters trailed off to me though. I hope the inevitable Story Mode DLC figures some way to get rid of and stop the Hourglass and timelines BS.
Bi-Han's facial expression on that last one is great. He looks legitimately remorseful, but when he sees the fight is going to happen, he swaps back to his scowl.
I find Reptile and Smoke so precious, like Smoke being shocked about Kenshi breaking into Johnny's mansion, and Reptile being like "Hold up, you're not a beast?!"
Can we all agree that Smoke is one of The Bois?? Like I need bby boi with Raiden and Crew, his personality fits in well with them. Also, Shang Tsung is Loki...that's it lol. Every time I see him and when he talks, Loki. Hell, he LITERALLY shapeshifts...
I love the fact that they're all basically close friends before fighting for no reason and possibly committing the most gut wrenching fatality to said close friends.
This is to give everyone a new start and the opportunity to coexist in peace. Letting people know how powerful or evil they could have been works like inception and easily leads them down the same path.
Well, in prior timelines Tarkatans were half-demons, so I suppose it makes some sense that Tarkat would trigger demon alert in Ashrah... But still sad...
0:42 tbf, johnny's got a good point, it does rather sound absurd when people claim to be ninja or fire god, so i dont blame johnny for not being convinced.
When Sub Zero offers Condolences to Kitana for Her Mother’s death, you can tell by his facial expression that He was being genuine. A rare moment of Empathy from Bi Han
It's crazy how Sub-Zero is even more than a villain that he ever was. Usually he is the level-headed foil to Scorpion, but now they completely swapped roles lol
The Shang Tsung mirror confirms the ending with Titan Shang Tsung not dying but getting away to call his evil Titan Army and gather friends from Chaos Realm ... hence it was only 1 round against him
I like the idea of Johnny, Syoth, Ashrah, Smoke, Kung Lou, and Kenshi hanging out at Johnnys house drinking beers, eating pizza, watching Predator, Back to the Future, and It’s a Wonderful Life together.
Nitara’s storyline is actually fine as is. The only problem is that Megan Fox’s voice acting is hit or miss. The only lines that I do say are actually good is between Nitara and Johnny Cage as Fox actually sounds annoyed in those voice lines but that is it.
8:09 is just sad not omly because of her mom's death but also the fact that him saying sorry means there is still good deep in him but he still chose to be like this instead
1:39 Oh Kitana…. I know you’re unfamiliar with all the customs of how we Earthrealmer men flirt, but saying a retort like that to a man like Johnny only encourages them more🤣
I'm sorry, but Syzoth being scared of the Predator film that Johnny showed him is so precious XD
He's lucky. He doesn't have to cross paths with the real thing, unlike his previous timeline's self, lol!
@@NeonKnightOAah yes the Mortal Kombat X

Yeah but the predator was in the game too,

And Smoke.

Kenshi can see now dangit😂😂😂
Ah yes, me and the boys chilling in the loaded one's crib.
I can totally imagine it happening. They all really just bros.
0:44 " Two ninjas and a fire god, showed up at my door "
Speaking of ninjas, I love how Kitana, Mileena and Rain aren't really confirmed as ninjas or assassins in this game but are still wearing masks either way and I know I know they have to wear masks anyways cuz it's one of their most important trademark since their debut in MK
And also come on MASKS LOOK COOL
And turned it into: "Must be outworld royalty thing" culture. Which is nice.
they got a more deadlier version of corona out there stay safe
Tbf that's good, no ninja would just say they were ninjas.
“They’re terribly comfortable, and I’m sure everyone will be wearing them in the future”

Same here...
Same.. and looks wise too 😍
Baraka way too wholesome😭😭
Great character.. great gameplay.. man this might be the first time Baraka is loved by the majority of players..
And Reptile/Syzoth. They genuinely flesh them out to be more unique than their previous timelines.
You missed one. Mileena apologizes to Kenshi for turning him blind

Cage: "*chicken imitation*"
It's goofy and also a callback to where Kenshi asked Cage to bet sento on the fight between Raiden and Kung Lao's fight to be the champion.
I was actually surprised bi-han saying any condolences to Kitana..
That shows that he can still be redeemed. Hopefully he meets Sareena, I believe she is key to his redemption.
@@OGStarlightKYhe just need to get laid by demon, that would make him to the right path.
@@OGStarlightKYBi-Han was the catalyst for Sareena’s redemption in the last timelines, be quite poetic for it to happen with reversed roles.
It's probably the only line where he isn't an asshole.
Unfortunately and understandably, Kitana was right to be angry with him.
@@drockman92 It would be very poetic. Sareena can help him conquer the darkness within himself, it would be quite fitting since she’s a demon looking to subdue her own darkness.

Oh sorry, that was meant for the technology-less one, lol😅
Love how they handled Smoke, Syzoth, Baraka, and Li Mei in this game.
Agreed. More depth has been added to the jobbers, they're now up there with the main cast
And sindel
If anything smoke was the most convincing after doing that to madame bo
What'd he do?

Man even tho there are some resentments here or there, everyone is so... respectful to eachother. Sometimes even friendly. Liu Kang you softie
I like this aspect a lot, the characters are likable in a way like never before.. I'm so obsessed 😅
Compared to before.. everyone thought Raiden as a fool (and he kind of was)
And then proceeds to kill and mutilate each other and laugh about it
Do you think they like, revive afterward and chill with each other? @@영환김-f9x

Not elder god just god
"It is a worthless gimmick, Kung Lao"
That line was so spicy.
There are few things you misses, like Kitana talking about Mileena and Tanya relationship, all Nitara things, Smoke wanting to visit Madam Bo with Raiden, etc
"2 Ninjas and a FIRE GOD, showed up at my door"
Yea, I suppose that's a fair reaction
1:20 I had to laugh out loud at the simultaneous roast of two characters. That amazing line delivery!
They really did a good job making characters a LOT more likable.
And understandable
Reptile is like the best example of that here. In the previous games, he was always a major villain but now, he's one of the purest characters in this game lol
I like how ashra doesn't like the hat at 5:03 even though it's the exact same one that she used to wear in the old timeline😂
Opposite timeline confirmed
@@Mcblocksy-funny-vids semi opposite, shao still being the bad of the history and etc.
This game's story was absolutely fantastic.
I have my cherry picks about it, but its definately better than any previous story mode.
I agree for the most part. The last 2 or so chapters trailed off to me though. I hope the inevitable Story Mode DLC figures some way to get rid of and stop the Hourglass and timelines BS.
Ehh...the first half or so
@@gjtrue Knowing Titan Havik, I doubt it
2/3 were amazing but the last three chapters..... it's like that tóxic relationship you can't left
"Two ninja and a fire god showed up at my door" thats my favorite one easy. Man makes a great point.
Baraka and Syzoth are truly good guys... despite their scary depictions
Best trope
Bi-Han's facial expression on that last one is great. He looks legitimately remorseful, but when he sees the fight is going to happen, he swaps back to his scowl.
Exactly
I really hope one of the DLC characters get to ask Liu Kang, "Is Bi-Han a dick in every timeline?" because it seems like he is.
I find Reptile and Smoke so precious, like Smoke being shocked about Kenshi breaking into Johnny's mansion, and Reptile being like "Hold up, you're not a beast?!"
Bi-Han sympathizing with Sindel’s death is a suprise, but a welcome one
Bi-Han = Mama's Boy WITH Daddy Issues
@@aleksandarvil5718sektor=daddy's girl with mommy issues
Kenshi is right,they do deserve each other
This Scorpion no longer has Quan Chi as a stalker, gets Havik instead.
Can we all agree that Smoke is one of The Bois?? Like I need bby boi with Raiden and Crew, his personality fits in well with them.
Also, Shang Tsung is Loki...that's it lol. Every time I see him and when he talks, Loki. Hell, he LITERALLY shapeshifts...
5:42 The right hook Johnny gave Goro will forever be hilarious
Him and goro will always have beef
That's because Goro still owe him that $500 sunglasses.
I love the fact that they're all basically close friends before fighting for no reason and possibly committing the most gut wrenching fatality to said close friends.
Smoke's laugh at the beginning! And i knew it! He's caught the acting bug after being a fan of Johnny 😍
Is Bi-Han being...nice...with Kitana? (About Sindel's death)
My favourite part is Johnny reminding Sub-Zero that he owes him and Sub-Zero basically just saying "Nuh-uh."
“You will NEVER see payment!”
God, my dying.
Nice concept and editing
Matching the dialogue with the visual of the story.
I know it's missing Mileena's apology to Kenshi.
You missed the part where Meleena apologized to Kenshi.
Liu Kang and Geras must have reasons to hide the details of prior timelines
Yes. Liu Kang's entire THING is he wants them to have free will rather than feeling tied to him at the hip.
This is to give everyone a new start and the opportunity to coexist in peace. Letting people know how powerful or evil they could have been works like inception and easily leads them down the same path.
8:09 Please NRS let us explore more of Bi-Hans compassion. He's not a wraith anymore
I am waiting for story DLC where the story is about Shirai Ryu rivalry with Lin Kuei. We could expand both Bi-Han and Kuai Liang’s character arcs.
I like how Bi han isn't just an asshole, he actually has a code of honor, I'm glad the writers made sure of that.
I consider him misguided and misunderstood, not evil.
Notice he does what he believes is right.
@@ArnieOcfemiaJust like John Kreese.
I love how Baraka is giving Ashrah crap for mistaking him for a demon XD
Well, in prior timelines Tarkatans were half-demons, so I suppose it makes some sense that Tarkat would trigger demon alert in Ashrah... But still sad...
Bi-Han: Lin Kuei Grandmaster and Master Tax Evader
Really loved how everything turned out in the main story. Even reflecting the events that took place that felt like yesterday.
Hearing Bi Han spitefully claim Johnny will never see repayment is probably the most hilariously petty moment in the game.
Bi Han: I want POWER! Not fame!
Vergil: Power, you say?
"Where's your motivation?"
Mileena: "If you're standing with Bi-Han, that makes you our enemy too!!"
Vergil: "Why's that? I've no quarrel with the likes of you."
5:34 I find Reptile' thinking that the Predator movie was scarier than the conflict he went through in the main story, amusing.
“I still can’t believe I lost to you at the tournament”
“You came a lot closer than you think”
The health bars: 👀
0:42 tbf, johnny's got a good point, it does rather sound absurd when people claim to be ninja or fire god, so i dont blame johnny for not being convinced.
I love how shang tsung was mostly honest about his actions, even if he was trying to help mileena the way he did it is still evil
It's interesting that Bi-han is expressing regret and to Kitana of all people
this was very well made. you picked the scene perfectly to reflect their dialouge. very smooth 👍🏽
There's something about Baraka feeling bad for not helping Kenshi is really heartwarming to me.
Seconded. "I should have been there" got my attention REAL quick.
When Sub Zero offers Condolences to Kitana for Her Mother’s death, you can tell by his facial expression that He was being genuine. A rare moment of Empathy from Bi Han
4:18" never let bro cook"-raiden
It's crazy how Sub-Zero is even more than a villain that he ever was. Usually he is the level-headed foil to Scorpion, but now they completely swapped roles lol
When Bi Han apologized to kitana he almost looked sad
Thanks man. This is the only place I can actually see these banters I’ve never ever actually seen one in game.
I find hilarious that Johnny Cage showed the Predator film to Reptile, considering the Predator was a guest character in MKX.
8:11 really Bi-Han feels sorry even though betrayed Liu Kang, Kuai Liang & Tomas
Raiden being young and humble, that is all.
Why do people keep calling Raiden weak lol
because this is the new timeline duh.
Copium
Because his a farmer boy
Big cope
They’re just being rude, raiden seems to be the friend everyone makes fun of (besides Johnny), at least he’s cool about it
If Syzoth thought Predator was scary then he’s gonna have major nightmares when he sees Alien.
“Had you trained harder you’d be champion”
This sounds familiar
1:51 Sindel being asian mom
I really appreciate you showing the appropriate cutscenes
“You’re Scrawny And Pathetic!”
*“Why did you lose to me then?”*
😂😂😂
Mr popo after seeing shao stole his line: Pecking order
Bro humbly said "skill issue"
I don't think anyone wanna remember that traumatic experience of nearly getting vivisected within Shang Shun Laboratory
“Two ninjas and a fire god showed up at my door” is begging to become a joke 😂
"So a Yakuza, a fire god, and two ninjas walk into an actors home..."
Sindel sounds like a real Asian mom
The Shang Tsung mirror confirms the ending with Titan Shang Tsung not dying but getting away to call his evil Titan Army and gather friends from Chaos Realm ... hence it was only 1 round against him
This is an awesome compilation of intros, great work.
Regular human Raiden is out here humbling everyone.
I like how much of a good sport raiden is
I like the idea of Johnny, Syoth, Ashrah, Smoke, Kung Lou, and Kenshi hanging out at Johnnys house drinking beers, eating pizza, watching Predator, Back to the Future, and It’s a Wonderful Life together.
What's Syzoth gonna eat?
Smoke is a pretty fun guy.
Baraka to Ashrah in simple words: "Why you being racist though?"
Scorpion and Smoke being MIA I believe is more referencing their arcade ending where they waged war against the Lin Kuei
MK1 shows how much excellent characterization and writing can elevate an already good series.
0:45 to be fair I can’t really blame him.
Can we see 8:09 but with Sub-Zero unmasked? I wanna see if he genuinely cares 😢
Bi-Han being nice? That's a first.
I like that mk1 story most of the series.
Every character, except nitara was gold.

I like how Smoke is now a homie 👌😆
I like how much of a glowup Syzoth, Baraka and Johnny got this release.
1:58 ”You came a lot closer than you think” 😈🌚
I think this is a first for the series I would like to see more of this in the next one.
Liu Kang: Giving Kenshi's Sento was most honorable.
Johnny Cage: After what he did he deserved it.
1:39
Oh Kitana…. I know you’re unfamiliar with all the customs of how we Earthrealmer men flirt, but saying a retort like that to a man like Johnny only encourages them more🤣
Perfect way to spoil the story for myself without actually spoiling the story.
"You saw Shang Tsung's experiments first-hand?"
-Smoke said to the blind guy
Missed opportunity for there to be a Titan Kitana to talk to Titan Lu Kang like in the story :(
