Mortal Kombat 1 - Baraka Ending (Tower Ladder Mode Ending)

[@Shadowman9348]

Baraka richly deserves this honor.

[@thomassquire4906]

Agreed Baraka is such a badass character hes been done dirty so many times i feel its nice that Mk 1 gave him and many others a nice change of pace

[@AngieCarr]

Crazy to think that this Baraka is infected with a mosterous disease but shows so much temperament and care for his fellow inflicted but the Baraka that is of an actual race had less care and understanding. He deserved a “Happy Ending” above most others.

[@muhmuh607]

@@AngieCarr To be fair, the original one was a mix of Outworlder and Netherrealm demons. So he’s more capable of sympathy here since he’s mainly just an Outworlder shunned due to his affliction.

Just only one story short He was just a rich merchant

Mileena, Baraka and Syzoth(Reptile) ending has always been intertwine with one another

[@JaxBlade]

Man this was so heartwarming, I never once thought I'd feel for Baraka or Mileena after all these years but the magic of a Liu Kang Timeline lol.

I love how a lot of arcade endings are connected somehow, which makes playing mutiple arcade runs good content wise.

[@LoreleiSlayer]

All of them are one story, if you'll watch carefully :) What we see in Baraka ending, we can also find in Mileena's, just with her POV.

Baraka got a huge glow-up narratively in MK1, and I'm down and here for it.

[@igur_yes]

He got a glow up phisically as well, He's way more badass-looking than before

[@nolanschotanus2769]

Literally everyone in this timeline is so chill and accepting of eachother and it is so refreshing. In the old timeline Baraka would just get shanked by Mileena and nothing would change.

[@nintendolife25]

The more I hear about Baraka’s misfortune, the more I feel sorry for the poor dude. NRS did such a great job in making him a sympathetic character.

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

Honestly, giving them good food and supplies would probably go a long way towards making the disease manageable

[@gummyboots]

And cutting down on the starved cannibalism thing..

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

@@gummyboots Yeah, I really wonder how many of the psychological symptoms aren't just from the harsh treatment they recieve and the lack of food.

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

@@johngona5929 Good food and actual rest might help that. It seems like people are banished pretty quickly once they get sick

[@jenn5628]

I agree 💯

[@cwolffe510]

@@rosesweetcharlotteBaraka mentioned that the disease both disfigures and debilitates. Meaning that those that survive the disease long enough will eventually become feral and potentially even cannibalistic. Baraka also often mentioned in one of his dialogues that he is constantly fighting to stay in control, meaning he’s already supposed at the stage of being driven feral, but he’s fighting back with sheer willpower.

[@kamarreingram5045]

Baraka threw all mortal kombat history always looks out for his people first honestly the main reason he my favorite character

[@UnifiedEntity]

Well done Liu Kang......well done.

[@bufudyne2332]

This is so wholesome. Well done Liu Kang and all hail Queen Mileena!!

[@DjWubNdub]

Finally. Baraka gets a decent ending. Man deserved at least that much. What a legend.

[@lrainwater1608]

Wow Baraka isn’t just used as the villain’s throwaway meat bag in this storyline

[@TheAnimationEz]

baraka deserve it

[@jamichealruiz]

Definitely Deserves It💯🔥

[@the_infinexos]

In MK11 and MK1, they've started doing Baraka justice. I'm glad. Rather than being Shao Khan's goon, he is now doing his best as a leader for a cursed people. This lets him see reason and negotiation instead of just "RAAAAAHHH EAT ALL EARTHREALMERS"

[@jenn5628]

Both Baraka and Reptile have the biggest glow up in this game. Hope they stay like that

[@fatalwaffle1715]

Yeah they are like bros.

Baraka’s people no longer are treated as savage beasts but actual people this timeline 😊

[@KonEl-BlackZero]

I still remember the first time I saw Baraka back in the 90s in the MK2 arcade. I was like "what the f*** is that and how I am suposed to fight it". Good memories, I am happy my boy is finally having some love.

[@williamritt6231]

This is the story baraka deserves an honorable man plagued by the loss of his loved ones, but despite all odds remains strong-willed for his people 👍🏻

[@xavierpaul49]

I’m so proud of you Baraka. You are honored.

[@visionarybrushstroker7694]

Baraka was my fav in the story. Currently my main.

[@kingrobotnik6950]

Got a little chocked up there near the end 🥹

[@TheDilophoMos]

I hope in the next game Tarkat is cured or at the very least, more treatable.

[@Thorax7x686]

Glad seeing him and his infected kind treated well till cured

[@KingSpartaX37]

This definitely shows that Baraka and his race have a good heart. Thank you Liu Kang for this timeline.

[@LuigiStar445Pro]

Baraka and his inflicted peers deserve this ending. If they're gonna keep living with Tarkat until a cure is found, they should do so comfortably.

[@adipratama4335]

Don't forget he was a Rich merchant before gets ill... Now he became a sociopreneur

[@Videogamingchannel2024-d2z]

This is a good heartwarming ending for baraka in mortal kombat 1 (*crying*) 😭😭😭

[@Grab_001]

No cure for them yet. But they have care and hope. And thats a good start.

[@ShadyLizack]

wtf this ending is beautiful.

[@n3onf0x]

It's amazing how this timeline made some of the characters more than just henchmen.

[@TJEversII]

Went from hating Baraka ALWAYS to genuinely loving him. What a fantastic turnaround for a jobber-Esque character.

[@rloduwick]

so interesting that they made this a disease in this timeline very well written and intriguing

[@tachyontee3877]

So no real happy ending for Baraka? Continued suffering from a deleterious disease. Meh, that's life. Always wants to shaft you, then ask why you're not smiling.

[@5erforlife318]

Well if he is cured then he is no longer Baraka. Although i would have liked to see his human form. Many say that angry guy at Shang Tsung was Baraka.

[@yoga5631]

​@@5erforlife318iirc no baraka was a trader, the one who expose shan taung is a farmer

[@hartantoanggoro]

When Baraka reverted into his human self, these might be not permanent form as the cure might be unable to treat the older tarkat but he might be able to use it as a temporary form to reconnect the people who got Tarkat with the entire outworld. He also can use this form to protect himself and his loved ones as Mileena uses her Tarkat disease to empower herself rather than fallen deep from the raging disease.

Liu Kang resets the timeline. He rebooted the entire Tarkat race and just turned it into and infectious disease. So now you get this Baraka. Also the previous timeline Barakas weren't necessarily evil. Just working for whoever is in charge so he can provide for his tribe.
