I gather a large majority of people know what happens in story mode. If you don't, then I'd leave if you don't want to know spoilers.
So, MKX's Story Mode has only 12 Chapters compared to MK9's 16. This in itself is extremely disappointing, but the final nail in the koffin is the fact that more than half the roster won't be getting a chapter of their own, including several of the resurrected characters. I just recently saw the ending and it's very 'meh' and the mid-credits scene is also 'meh'. Shinnok is the big-bad and is also the unlockables character. Again, a lack-luster attempt ar trying to be 'creative'.
These faults have 100% killed my hype for Story Mode, but I'm still incredibly excited to play the game and find all the other secrets. I was wondering if anyone else felt the same way so that I know I'm not the only one de-hyped

I think its a disgrace myself so lazy, next gen consoles, you would think there would be a bigger story, and as for the unlockable character? Absolutely criminal.. And the final chapter being Cassie is scandalous..

How, exactly? It's been clear she was the protagonist since the story trailer....
They wanted a new generation of fighters... made them... inevitably that new generation would feature the next 'champion' of sorts... Cassie was the first of that generation and has been the most promoted.... She's the daughter of two loved characters, and has obviously had a lot of effort put into her...
Where's the scandal exactly? Is it because you don't like her?

Please explain to me what gives Cassie the right to be the hero of the game and why she would even posses such power to defeat shinnok? Please enlighten me.

The right to be a hero?
Dude... it's a fictional story. The writers get to pick whoever they please to be the hero and 'possess such power'. Nobody gets the 'right' to be a hero - they just decide who they want to be the protagonist.
If Cassie isn't your cup of tea, good on you. I never cared for Liu Kang but still like the story, both old and new. I'm sure you'll survive the utter scandal of Cassie being the final victor.

A fictional story? No shit I didn't say it wasn't, alls I'm saying is that they have picked the wrong character to conclude the story on. Your clearly a sonya/Cassie fanboy so i guess your happy with how it's all panned out

I hate to use the phrase 'butt-hurt' but it's one of the few times I find it appropriate...
If all you wanted to say was 'I wish someone else was the protagonist'... you wouldn't have said 'right to be the hero'.... 'Right' implies something far more than just 'I don't want her to be the protagonist', and it's very odd to read. Again, they're fictional characters, none of them have the 'right' to anything.
And as a Sonya fanboy you'll find I"m not happy with how a lot of things have turned out, but I"m not fussed that Cassie is the protagonist, nor that I'll ahve to play as plenty of characters I don't like to do story mode. I'll survive
