I want to recommend this game but just can't. It becomes a money and time management game more than a fishing game. I understand its to sell mtx and have you buy stuff but it just makes it hard to casually fish on a lake without having to worry about making enough money to pay for the trip. Like hope you brought the right rod setups and tackle otherwise you are out a few hours worth of grinding cash. I like the fishing but it makes it hard to enjoy when I have to worry about all the other stuff.

It pains me to not recommend this game as I did enjoy my time with it. However, it's just missing to much for the price tag, especially compared to it's predecessor and current generation competition (SF6).

I will continue to play and probably enjoy this, but it's not a game I can recommend to others that aren't invested in Mortal Kombat. The new Street Fighter 6 was a great entry point for any level of player into fighting games, with plenty of content both offline and online. Mortal Kombat 1 though misses the mark on several points, most importantly the depth to the offline content. Mortal Kombat 11 had plenty to do solo, creating builds, wandering the krypt, mess with the AI. This not so much.

This game has Story Mode and Invasion. I genuinely enjoyed the story mode, it was fun. Invasion was enjoyable enough but it's really hollow. It has almost no depth once you go through it. It's a one and done ride, for all characters. There is no character builds, no gear grinding, nothing to work for other than the completion. While some complained about Mortal Kombat 11s Towers of time, it had hours of content figuring out how you wanted to play it. This is missing that flexibility.

Online in Mortal Kombat has never really interested me, every time I've played against randoms its always either Scorpion or whoever people consider the 'Meta' character in the game. The matches just don't feel like you are learning a fighting game compared to something like Street Fighter. After SF6 online coming out with very smooth online and ranking fighting against Mortal Kombat itself just to have a good time, which isn't the fighting im here for. Other than that I can't comment how any of the characters play mostly cause i'm a PvE Kombatant any character is viable against AI. I'll might update this section once my friends pick this up on sale and I get some actual matches in.

Overall I'm just sad there isn't anything to sink time into in this game. I enjoyed my time, and will continue playing. Recommending the game based on my Bias for Mortal Kombat just can't be done at the moment. If they update this game adding in a fun time sink then I will gladly recommend, at the moment it's just a decent fighting game, but not enough to warrant dethroning MK11 (which is on the game pass) or SF6 (which is better for newcomers).

Feels more like a strategy game mixed with a healthy does of luck than a deck builder or tcg. Akin to solitaire. So its not bad if you think of it like that.

Early Access Review
It seems they are set on changing to a worse anti-cheat removing compatibility with Steam Deck / Linux. Game is great but cannot recommend games that can't find cross platform anticheat.

As someone who tried to get into 5 near the end of its life, this has been a much better experience over. Everything feels great even if I'm bad. Lots of options for training, solo, and new players. And a fun single player world to mess around in. Playing ranked is much better in this with how seamless everything feels. Interested to see what is to come.

Hope Lucia shows up though.

I don't want to recommend only because there is no non-PvP option. I'm fine with PvP sometimes in a game like this but other times I just want to sail with some friends and do the PvE content or trading without getting harassed by 12 year olds yelling on their mic over xbox.

Overall as a game this I think this in more in the realm of I wouldn't play this one if there are other ones at this level available that include a PvE only option.

Highly recommenced the game itself. Still won't give a positive review due to the forced anti piracy actions taken, im not actually sure if this is worse than 1 or 2 but this was the only game that I had multiple connection problems showing up pretty regularly every hour or so. Sad that one of the best single player titles is still being held hostage by required server connection. That plus the decision to have this game be an epic exclusive for a year before selling this full price. I fully recommend picking this up only when it is on sale for 50% off+.

Little hard to make lots of decks as lots of the fun cards are UR or SR. But still tons of free content and enough to make 1 or 2 good decks for free.

Turns out I'm not very good at pinball. Though, I'll blame all my mistakes on the table, so it's not my skill.

Pricing model is a bit annoying but for the amount of quarters I would have used, its fine just get tables on sale.
