I can only hope they do Baraka and Reptile PROPERLY now. Sure, mortal kombat may be gritty, but its just not the same without said "Mystic powers, demons, and demigods".
If people lui kang doesnt throw a fireball, Reptile isnt a lizardman that spits acid, and baraka isnt a demon with bone swords in his arms.... And most importantly, sub zero isnt able to freeze people and smash them into bits.... Its just not Mortal Kombat.... Its just a modern day gladiator match held in the underground.... basically, what UFC should be.
