The world loses only the sci-fi level supertech Cyberia had. It's still at roughly a 20th-century level.


* EsotericHappyEnding: [[spoiler: Yeah, Razor destroys Cyberia and unites the other provinces...but the world is left without any technology, and there's no signs that he's actually going to repair and unite the world like Tremor would. [[PyrrhicVictory Was his victory really a good thing in hindsight?]]]]

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: If you make the mistake of trying to care about the story, you'll find that it's kind of hard to do so when almost every single character is either an unrepentant, unlikable dick, or corrupted into one by the absolute power of victory, with the only exceptions being Tremor (who is unquestionably good), and to a lesser extent Razor (who is doing the right things for the wrong reasons, and maybe not the right things).

* {{Misblamed}}: For a long time, it's been a common rumor that Daniel Pesina portraying Johnny Cage in ads for this game was why he was fired from Midway and Johnny not appearing in ''Mortal Kombat 3''. The truth is, Daniel had already left Midway earlier on over a payment dispute, and that the team had decided on Cage on reappearing in ''3'' even before the ads came out.

* PlayTheGameSkipTheStory: Comes from an era of video gaming when every fighting game developer was trying to out-''MortalKombat'' Midway by giving their games tons of expository backstory and book-length character motivations. Of course, the only thing dumb kids cared about was seeing Freon get impaled on spikes or watching Tempest's boobs shake when she got dizzied.
