No fatality for player 2 in Local fight
If we play local fight, than player 2 doesn't have any fatalities (only "easy") and brutalities. Player 1 works fine. WTF?

That's because the game is Injustice 3 re-made as an MK game; and Injustice 3 was using Injustice 2's template -- the latter 2017 game being infamous for locking all unlockable / non-vanilla content (special moves, gear, skins) to the P1 profile only. Therefore, whatever needs "unlocking" in MK1, may well be exclusive to the P1 side in local play... Aside from the Kameos, I believe, as those would break e-sports if they could not be used by both players locally. So, unless NRS patch it (no guarantee, as Ij2 never had this issue fixed), offline PvP might remain gimped for the life of the game.

This is also sure fire proof that the game was, indeed, Ij3 (as Boon himself alluded to), because MK11 did not have this problem -- nor could it have, seeing as abilities were intrinsic to gameplay -- while this game now [again] does. I'd go as far as putting in a support ticket, because if gimped local PvP were advertised from the start, many would not have bought the game... It's as close to false advertising as you can get. Heck, up until a few weeks ago, there was even a player-1 gameplay "advantage"! What a broken turd they foisted upon suckers 😑
