I thought I was done playing games. Then, I was introduced to Catherine (FB) by xQcOW. Wow! I can't get enough. Yes, Catherine's Full Body sister may be in an exclusive relationship for now, but seriously, I could play this one until I die.

***Buyer beware*** ***Unfixed online (maybe never will be) issue*** ***BS for a 2015 game***

Pros:
+AMAZING fighting game, very good feeling MK flow and graphics (and I'm on a too!)
+So much fighting variety (character classes add to the MK formula)
+Plenty of features and modes, sickest Krypt.

Cons:
-Online UNPLAYABLE FOR MANY (like me, but see forums just to see) even on excellent connections (even without router/NAT)
-Very High % of wasting your money if you want the online experience

***Grey ping bars galore (bandwith test screenshot)
***FYI, I'm on a dorm connection. EVERY OTHER GAME on Steam, on Battle.net, plays excellent online. Even SF IV, even ***MK 9. Only MK X is unplayable. A DAMN SHAME.

PROS
More HM goodness including:

1- Very enjoyable tweaks to the core formula (new mask system, new abilities);
2- More insanity/
3- Addicting sense of playing one more level to know more about WTF is going on;
4- Insanity level +++
5- Level editor! (WHICH IS ALSO A CON because they promised it but it's not out on release and it has no release date)

CONS:

1- NO UNSTUCK/NO CONSOLE -no clipping option/NO CONTINUING FROM STAGE vs from very beginning of level.
Stopped playing the game because in a huge multistage level CHARACTER GOT STUCK IN A WALL at the very end when it was go to the end time "Scene 11 - Dead Ahead" after dozens of grueling minutes and careful planning.

2- NO LEVEL EDITOR! Well, it gives us time to draw out our designs, but there's NO PROMISE IT WILL COME OUT!

3rd party DRM (Uplay). Game constantly connected online. First game didn't require it.
