MORTAL KOMBAT 4 ALMOST MADE ME RAGE QUIT

[@UltimateShadow10]

I never EVER thought I'd see you play this of all MKs. Shinnok was so disappointing in this game that it's hilarious. When u pass Goro, you pretty much beat the game.

[@jeremyroberts8822]

I remember as a kid this was one of my favorite MK games but looking back now I think i was just too forgiving of games cus back then I rarely ever got a new game so any game I got I played over and over again all the time. For some reason I never truly realized how janky the game felt and looked until now lol

[@dogg-paws]

I love that legendary continue screen, so fitting for the Halloween season.

[@WhitePointerGaming]

I'm not sure if anyone in the chat said this at the time, but Sub-zero's damage is actually scaled after you freeze them. ie, the opponent takes less damage when they are frozen. That's why your uppercuts were doing almost nothing against Jarek and Tanya, because you froze them first. And yes, that also means the actual combos you do after freezing them are scaled too, though not quite as much as uppercuts are. They would still do more damage if they were not frozen though.

I always knew that Goro was the actual final boss of the game than Shinnok ever was.

[@UltimateShadow10]

Did you see Shinnok's bio card in Armageddon? Ed Boon himself even admits regretting having Shinnok as the final boss.

[@Master_Blaster_84]

Is the same thing in MK 1,Shang Tsung is very easy to beat,Goro is the real boss in MK1.

[@CalciumChief]

I loved Goro in here. Somehow him running super fast makes him scarier. Like this giant mountain of muscle is running a marathon now and combine that with the impact of his punches here. Then when I saw what they did to him in Deception and Armageddon and part of me died. He's super stubby there, like he got hit with a car compactor.

[@Master_Blaster_84]

@@CalciumChief Is a good Goro in MK X,is tall like Goro from MK4 and look like the one from MK1,is have the best design in MK X and is fast and combos are deadly 😀 In MK11 they dint bring him back,but its ok because the game is bad and slow.

[@CalciumChief]

@@Master_Blaster_84 I've not watched enough X Goro to say much. He is better than Armageddon, but he would never have the power behind his attacks 4 Goro did, simply because of not being a sub-boss.

[@Retroman2000]

I remember playing this when it came out, some guy using Reiko was awarded maximum damage for using the consistent arm grab. So much stuff in this game to learn about It's crazy

[@txcforever]

It was extremely easy getting Maximum damage with a lot of characters. The game was so broken that their only solution to avoid infinites was having that Maximum Damage bullshit. Still I am pretty nostalgic about this not gonna lie.

[@Rugalbernstein777]

@@txcforever True but you have tô admit that its essencially The Best way ever made on fighting games tô make sure a infinite actually ends. In any fighting game tô this day, they try all sorts of things but infinites are never truly gone. With the maximum damage thing, they are gone in a way at least.

[@0_no_name_0]

Here is a tip for playing as Sub-Zero:After performing the ice slide,i highly suggest running back to the opponent then perform a throw.Not only is it guaranteed to hit but also deals a high amount of damage

[@Unchainedful]

The CPU actually gets more aggressive when you pull out a weapon. For example if you have the CPU set on easy, normally the CPU would stand there and hit you once every once in a while, pull out a weapon and the CPU will either run towards you to combo you or spam multiple long range special moves.

[@Aware_Wolf_X4]

This is such a funny game to me. I was obsessed with the series when I was 7 years old, but I never had a PS1 or N64 during that time. So I've spent more time reading/watching stuff about MK4 than I have playing it. By the time I had a PS1 in 97 I had discovered other violent/gory games like Resident Evil, Twisted Metal 2, Tenchu, Doom, Duke Nukem, etc.

Being poor in the 90s I not only loved this game & have mad memories with my squad playing 2v2 on the N64 version I also appreciated it along with all the other games my parents got me because as a grown man in my early 30s I now recognize how much you had to love your kids to spend any extra income on video games for them

[@barry-allenthe-flash8396]

At first I was like, "It's just MK4 for Halloween week? Why pick this? This game ain't got horror or scares." Then Justin turned the difficulty to Ultimate and it all made sense 😆 Man, the CPU in this is brutal. I don't remember ever playing it on Ultimate when I had it (on 64) as a kid, but I gotta admit: there's not a lot that's scarier _in the entire fighting game genre_ than game balancing and damage scaling this skewed against you, lol.

[@simondiamond9628]

Reiko was dope in the arcade version of MK4. His Flip Kick special move is nutty, and so is his "breaker" (bone breaker) move. Massive amounts of combo potential.

[@djpegao]

The Reiko & Goro fights were even funnier on the stream; Reiko was really extra on those sets.

To be honest a large majority of the cast that were added or introduced after the first trilogy have been pretty much forgotten about, nowadays you're lucky to see them as a tower "konsumable", a name dropped reference in some intro dialogue before a match or in some supplemental comic about 20 people actually read.

[@Kugrox]

if you think this is hard you never played dragonball z infinite world. AI will infinite combo you with guard cancels on 'very easy' setting and will bully you 8 health bars and double damage against your 3 healthbars and normal damage. And no theres no tutorial on doing infinite combos you just have to figure it out while the AI mercilessly beats you to death. Its a remake of Budokai 3 so its a similar generation to mk4.
