Mortal Kombat 2023 VS Tekken 2023 PROS AND CONS lets go

[Hurt Me Plenty]

TITLE. My personal thoughts:

PROS FOR MORTAL KOMBAT:
+MK is MK. Loyal fan support
+fatalities and brutalities (fun to end the game or annoy your opponent)
+gore

CONS FOR MORTAL KOMBAT:
-too much sjws female design,
-bugs (its after release issue, so we cant really compare it to tekken now, but there are still some unfixed bugs since release)
-characters roster, they took away all the iconic characters (MK1 movie and MK1 game) and made them kameo except scorpion and sub zero,

-----

PROS FOR TEKKEN:
+TEKKEN is TEKKEN. loyal fan support
+fluent movement system

CONS FOR TEKKEN:
-too much sjws in the costume design too, however female faces are fine but still there is too much cover on the body
-characters roster, they also took away all the iconic characters like Eddy Gordo - literally, no eddy, no tekken, he is an iconic mascot of tekken series since tekken 3. if there woudn't be eddy in tekken 3 i probably wouldn't be interested in this series. (PS. I prefer christie over eddy but its just reskin)

FINAL THOUGHTS:

POSITIVES:
I can't give any real positive things to these games maybe except the graphics upgrade. Everything else is downgrade honestly. Example is the kameo system that is literally something inbetween of 1vs1 and tag game. These game modes should be separated, some people doesnt enjoy 1vs1 and some people doesnt enjoy tag. If you merge the game modes you will piss everyone off.

NEGATIVES:
For negatives I give the kameo system (mentioned above) and the extreme censorship on the female characters and extremely masculinity on male characters (standard these days). According to current standards I don't know anymore how many genders are there.. 0?.. 1?.. 2?.. or 99?... But why all of them does looks like male?

DISCUSS WARRIORS!

EDIT REASONS: Some corrections and adding some more points that I forgot about.

Ain’t no way I’m paying 93.49$ before tax for Tekken 8 when it also has a SJW female design.

MK1 Pros:
+ MK story is full of meta -- the real world and other fictional universes references are a true treasure of the series.
+ Realistic models and anatomy like no other fighting game.
+ Gore level like no other fighting game.
MK1 Cons:
- Grind system (MK11 was much more entertaining).
- Boring DLC.
- Boring char palettes, lack of char skin variety.

[Star Rain]

I also prefer Christie, my main is Kuma then Roger then Christie its so dumb to remove her Tekken sucks.

[Judy Gemstone]

yeah I mean I like apples and I like oranges. What are we doing here?

[Jirai]

Both nice games and I love them all like I do love SF. Tekken is not released so I can't compare it but I am pretty sure it has way way better QoL stuff than MK and somehow I am pretty sure they release a finished game unlike NRS. Remember there is still a locked online mode since the release of MK.

Tekken has cross play, MK doesn't. That is a flawless win for Tekken

When the playerbase is already in steady decline (according to steam DB), who cares though. Shoulda been there at launch as it was for street fighter & will be for tekken

Yes should have been there from the very start. But having crossplay in February means you will have enough people to fight against, still.

[CHISPITAH]

[sg1darkcalling]

[Juri's_feet_tho]

They gave Nina MK11 Sindell level curves....dang

And she got gunzzz yo

[DosBoss]

Tekken isn't slapping its fans in the face and shovelling Denuvo into it...Instantly the better game.

[JyoKun]

You don't want censorship ? You want a very good fighting game with beautifull characters ? You like easy input but with deep and complexe gameplay ?... the game you want is:
Granblue Fantasy Versus : Rising.

Test it for free, you can play online with console and Pc, 28 characters all differents and interesting (for the free edition you have 1 who will always be here and 3 who change each week). ;)

Tekken 8 is basically Tekken 4, 5, 6, 7 just with better graphics.

At least MK1 is actually different from previous games.
