Well then, what the hell is the point? The excessive blood and fatalities was what put Mortal Kombat on the map to begin with. I dare anyone to tell me that Mortal Kombat would have been as successful as it was if it had been just like Street Fighter.

While that's true, the novelty of it has worn off and they know it. As many people have said, most people haven't given a damn about the series since MK3. Heck the last game didn't even have unique fatalities for the characters, they had "create a fatality" which I'm sure was due to having too many characters.
It's been obvious for awhile that they've been trying to get away from relying on the blood and fatalities to sell the game. It just hasn't been working because there have always been better 3D fighters around. I've read interviews with the creators, MK's original success was a complete accident. It was originally ment to be a joke that wouldn't go anywhere.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
