Name a fighting game series that has an all around better storyline

Name a fighting game series that has an all around better storyline

How about one that has better gameplay? oh yeah, all of them.

Playing a fighting game for the storyline is like playing a jrpg competitively

even fucking smash bros brawl had a better story mode

Fatal Fury, Street Fighter, Vampire Savior, Art of Fighting, Killer Instinct

Injustice desu.

MKX sucked dick. Why'd they have to give each fighter three different fight style modes to pick from.

Can we get a Shaolin Monks 2 for the next gen consoles

And maybe another MK that doesn't suck dick, MK9 was great.

Any anime fighter ever

>Scorpion, Sub Zero and Reptile are palette swaps of each other
MKfags actually defend this.

lol

>can't answer the question

Every game ever featured palette swaps. From Final Fantasy, to Call of Duty, to Mortal Kombat.

>Shaolin monks 2
>not liking diversified characters

I don't like being limited as to how I use each character. I want their full potential, all the time.

MK9 didn't have tit for tat, why does MKX?

They aren't anymore, but ya it was dumb back in the day

KOF man. It got a little ridiculous around the Ash saga, but they were so nice, they literally undid it right afterwards.

See and MK's story became a joke after MK4, especially once they pulled a Star Trek reboot and remade the first three games in an alternate timeline.

But shaolin monks was a good game it would probably also attract non fighting game dudes to the franchise

>Midway attempts to make Reptile something more than a palette swap
>MKfags lose their shit

The first three games were a joke of a story. No thought of the long term. They were making a video game, they didn't know what could come of it.

That's why they had to do a re-boot, because there was no real accurate story in the game. Now that the game succeeded, they could re-work the lore, fit with the current themes the game progressed to, and reintroduce the new generation of fans to how it's supposed to be.

They kept in easter egg fights, added that sweet tower challenge mode, tag team matches, overall MK9 was the GOAT MK fighting game.

Scorpion and Sub-Zero being palette swaps made sense since they're rival ninja clans with a common history, but Reptile, Smoke, Ermac, and Rain were just dumb.

This was my favorite looking reptile. I found out that I could spam his triple elbow combo in crab style and beat Moloch pretty easily.

Street fighter

>fighting game
>story

hell

>any game
>story
No wonder modern gaming sucks.

It's weird huh? There are two very distinct schools of thought on the subject. Personally, I like how John Carmack described his development process with the whole, "Story in games is like story in porn" analogy, I was a huge fan of Final Fantasy on the PS1 and PS2 but nowadays it just feels like too much.

The stories in video games can match any in any other medium. It's usually the execution that's kind of shoddy.

Guilty Gear
King of fighters
Fucking KI

Because they do a piss poor job making him both unique and cool at the same time. The closest they've ever came to that was Shaolin Monks.

Well those last four ones haven't been palette swaps in ages

Also >people here actually diskike mkx

My god you people have shit taste in everything
