Message: [QUOTE="Leifang, post: 40539, member: 5746"] To Netherealm's credit, at some point, Mortal Kombat ABSOLUTELY done away with most of the more esoteric controls in fights. Most inputs are now half-circles or back-forward and one button. Sonya's Leg grab was: ↓+LP+LK+BLK Sub-Zero's slide was: ←+LP+LK+BLK In 3D games, they are just: ←, →, K* [I]*replace K with LK, HK or BLK depending on the game, but it's one button now, instead of two face buttons and a shoulder one pressed at the same time now.[/I] They also removed most hold down moves, like Mileena's Sai throw, Liu Kang's bicycle kicks or Jax's ground pound... didn't Street Fighter also change charging moves for Chun Li's spins and half of Guile's moveset? Fatalities were also simplified, looked up Reiko, in MK4 he had: →, ↓, →, BLK+HK+LK+LP I looked up and in MK1 (awkward name for Mortal Kombat 12), it's: ↓, ↓, ↓, HP In fact, for several games now, most fatalities are just three directions (never diagonals) and one button. Just [URL='https://legacy.mortalkombatonline.com/content/games/mk2/subzero/']look at MK2 Sub-Zero fatalities[/URL] to compare how awkward they were. [/QUOTE]
