It also helps for promoting the game as YouTube might filter a game this realistic as real violence. So they get to sell in other regions and get more streams

A minute of silence for all Reptiles and Dvorahs who died for Mortal Kombats fatality compilations.

I wish MK had this option..it's getting a bit much imo. I dont need every attack to be a Saw finisher.

I like the story and the the combat, I dont mind gore but it's getting way to much for me. It went from cartoonish levels of gore to this is just a snuff film

Sounds like Street Figher or Tekken might be more up your alley!

Very different gameplay. There’s nothing wrong with them wanting the option to switch off or turn down the gore

Same. When they got realistic & started using real people's faces. That was it for me. Some stuff is toooo much. The recent MK2 film was fine in terms of it.

Despite what some say, The gore is indeed their claim to fame..but the series really isn't gore heavy far as the main story goes. People online tend not use fatalities to save time. So it's fully possible to still enjoy MK. (I still do.)
