Within the FGC itself, Mortal Kombat (and Injustice) aren’t particularly popular. It’s definitely the least popular of all the major fighting game franchises. Casual players seem to really like it though, what do they see in it?

I may just be an old fart, but hasn’t MK always been kinda shit? I mean, the first four had literally nothing to distinguish the characters from each other except the special moves. No matter who you chose, they had the same hitbox, and the exact same basic moves.
Then they decided to move away from that model with the fifth one, Deadly Alliance(?), and the new engine was so clunky, laggy, rigid and wooden that I gave up on the series altogether. It just wasn’t fun to play.
Has it actually improved since then? Are the newer iterations actually playable?
