Pros: The most beautiful game made I've played to date Cons: Everything Else. The script was ambigously pain staking to listen to. The story has zero motivation through Characters (Often the case when the Writer is the Director). Clunky inventory system. Alan and Casey were horrible actors. Saga was ok and Alice was well played. Camera Angles were horrible and I even came across spelling/sentence errors on certain key elements. I wouldn't buy this game unless it's under $20 and even then I'd buy the original and watch cutscenes of this AW 2. You couldn't pay me $1k to play this again.

Game play and Graphics are good. App execution (through Epic Games Launcher) and Servers are trash. Purchased premium to get Shang Tsung early and didn't get him until worldwide debut. The most irritating thing though is I KEEP HAVING TO WATCH THE OPENING CUT SCENE AND REMAP BUTTONS AND OPTIONS when it's done. For some reason it keeps saying it's my first time playing and it takes a couple minutes to set everything up every time I start it. I've lost a lot of matches because one button was not remapped correctly. I get kicked from servers every few matches and can't rejoin. It just says you are not connected to mk1 servers. then I have to restart and you guessed it watch the cut scene and set my custom controls and turn off negative button again. (20 Losses off of Disconnects alone and counting. and this game isn't even Crossplay.) They really need to take a page out of Street Fighter 6's book with the Servers, Netcode, and Matchmaking. I've actually never seen one so quick and reliable in recent years. TL;DR - If you play offline or with a friend (with the same console) it's good. If you are into online ranked competitive league stay away until they get their act together.
