I think the main problem with MK1 is that the general consensus is that
1; It’s simply not as good a game as Mortal Kombat 11 was in most aspects. Not story, not roster, not the amount of SP content, etc, and the overly greedy monetization has also been criticized by the fanbase. The DLC-characters themselves also feel less interesting than those in MK11.
2; It also not as good as the competition. Both Street Fighter 6 as well as Tekken 8 have received unanimous praise for how good they are, vast improvements over SF5 and Tekken 7. In comparison, Mortal Kombat feels like it ‘stalled’ a bit, or in some ways even took some steps backwards.
