Remember when people though MK4 was the black sheep of the series?
Then Deadly Alliance, Deception and Armageddon were a thing.

But they're all literally better than MK4, especially Deception.
Wasn't MK4 still using the same fighting formula while the 3D trio completely ditches the old 2D formula?
>>388691785
It had the best endings. Everybody gets wrecked.

GOING SOMEWHERE JEREK
>>388691924
Nah, Deception is shit.
MK4 was decent
Why is Kotal Kahn and Erron Black the best kharacters to be added to the series since Mk3, if not outright the first game?
>>388695378
deception has a good story mode. i wish that RPG style story mode could make a come back
MK4 was considered bad? That's the last I played until I decided to give mk9 a chance.
>>388695456
Call me crazy if you will, but kotal is super annoying to use for me
Deadly Alliance was good.
Deception was worse than 5 but better than 4
Armageddon wanted to be MK Trilogy but failed.

A lot of people consider that the downfall of the series started with MK4.
I never understood why, besides some boring characters like jarek and kai and the game taking forever to get a good revision in the arcades, it was fast as shit and comboing was a lot of fun.
Tanya/Scorp/Sub are hilariously broken, but what MK game isn't broken?
>>388695456
that's huskar though
>>388691785
It still is the black sheep of the series, but it's still a better fighter than all the other 3D MKs until 9.
That said, this game had problems
-quasi 2.5D but still able to rotate on a 3D plane, sometimes
>levels with throwable items on the ground
>meme endings for all the characters
>the game was fucking ugly for a fighter released in late 1997
>weapon system that was awkward to use and never had any real impact on a fight
>Shinok as the final boss
MK4 was always just decent. Paled in comparison to Tekken 3, SFA3, Vampire Savior, MvC, and KoF98 though.
>Dat Sonya and Tanya though
Probably the last time either were attractive as well.
>>388695993
Poor Reptile got blown up.
>>388697518
>Sonya's ass
>MK was more attractive using budget models and stunt actors
Why did they stop?
>>388697768
Kill yourself
>>388700040
you first dumbass
>>388695456
>Erron Black
he's my least favorite of the Kotal Rangers, but by far better than any of the Kombat Kids.
D'vorah would've been the best one if it wasn't for the retarded heel turn at the last second.
