    This is the second time NetherRealm Studios has done a shoutout to _Primal Rage_ in their recent _Mortal Kombat_ games. It makes me wonder if they're next game will be a remake of that arcade classic. I know Ed Boon put out a Tweet over a year ago to gauge interest in him making a giant monster fighting game and many commenters brought up _Primal Rage_ and its roster of eldritch dinosaur gods.
    It may be a long shot, but I could definitely see NRS being the perfect studio to revive that game for modern audiences that are looking for something new in their fighting games. It would also give them a fantastic opportunity to apply their style of gory story telling to a post-apocalyptic Earth filled with primordial beings and the neo-caveman tribes that worship them. I could see it being a mix of _Conan the Barbarian_ with more ritualistic human sacrifices, _Mortal Kombat's_ brutal combat and finishing moves and a little bit of _Street Fighter_ in terms of how each fighter has unique quirk to their game mechanics.

      Forreal. Deceptions conquest mode was one of the best single player experiences in gaming. It offered so much backstory and extra lore and getting to explore the realms. I don’t mind some multiplayer but funny enough, I prefer single player content/stories

      It is funny how 2 game franchises that had little to almost no story telling at the start just read the story cards or with street fighter we had mistranslation for some of the most important and popular characters for there little end of fight words it is just kinda funny how games made to steal your allowance and only look cool and play nicely no real story just fight in the tournament became something like we want something like a fantasy or science fiction martial arts movie story or something like manga about tournament fighting just nice to see growth

    This feels like the evolution of the spirit battle mode in Smash Bros Ultimate, a mode that everyone hated, so I'm surprised by the warm reception it's getting. Can't wait to get my hands on it.

    • @akaimizu1
      @akaimizu1 Před 10 měsíci +6

      @kollie79neither did I. I really loved the Spirit battles because they used the immense way that a match could be customized, the many characters and spirits, so that each one of them had various elements of the specific game each match was based off of. It was sort of like you were playing bits or references of “that game” in each match. Plus the special boss battles and stuff were great in it.
      I actually looked forward to new spirit matches as they came up, because I wanted to see how well they threw in stuff reminiscent of the game or character in it.

    • @colmecolwag
      @colmecolwag Před 10 měsíci +4

      The spirits got hated for two reasons
      1. There was like no actual story between the crossover characters in it, while this seems to have some mild story beats (but that may just be in the tutorials lol) and is a game mode where story isn't really expected. Helps that MK1 actually has a story ass story mode, while World of Light had to do all the story mode lifting for Smash Ult
      2. World of Light was also Way Too Damn Long and well. We'll see how long one of these is

    • @kamikazelemming1552
      @kamikazelemming1552 Před 10 měsíci +1

      @kollie79
      I think the reason people hated it was because World of Light was a downgrade from Subspace Emissary in pretty much every way. There were no sprawling levels filled with colorful and unique enemies, no fun or interesting interactions between any of the characters, or any signs of the comradery they built up throughout the story (like Samus and Pikachu). And there were only four cutscenes, one of which was just the original World of Light trailer. All it all, it just feels like World of Light had no passion put into it.

    there are so many easter eggs in Invasion mode.
    Timequake is the movie Young Johnny proposed to Old Johnny in MK11 that they would co-star in , "Two Johnnies. One Timeline"
    Also Johnny's Green Energy is explained in MKX and is a major plotpoint. He and Cassie have access to the Green Energy because the bloodline is from ancient order of divinely imbued warriors. (this is why the Cages were able to kick Shinnok's ass so hard)
    My assumption is that in the new timeline he hasn't accessed any of it yet (no fireballs)
