It's all good; there are some questionable things I'm not exactly pleased about myself, and I don't blame others who are wary of being cheated out of a game experience they paid good money for. Sorry if I came off a little frustrated or it sounded like I was chiding you. I just want us to all be one big happy MK family.Understood. I apologize once again to everyone.
I'm just looking for answers myself so I'll be open about it. I'll also go delete my tweet about it.
Turned out there were two threads about this, was looking for an earlier reply of mine and no luck.
Anyway, was going to add in there that the previous gane was also like this (or at least I remember that on 360, PS3 and Vita). You earn less currency when you replay story mode. The patch seems fixed a glitch that allowed players to earn 2,500 every time they beat the last fight.
Keeping in mind that you can skip fights too, so doing that won't earn you anything. So it was done I guess so that people didn't grinded around that (you can also skip cutscenes).
Also keeping in mind that the story mode in this one, is the result of complaints over the previous ones.
2011: Unskippable cutscenes, some felt it was too long at nearly 10 hours, 1 vs.2 fights, cheap difficulty (and cheaper final boss).
2015: Skippable cutscenes, faster paced story nearly 4 hours long, 1 vs. 1 fights only, balanced difficulty, skippable fights too if you find them too difficult.
Fighting off against multiple enemies definitely extended the hours for some. The last boss took me a good while to cheese, and like you mentioned is something they took notice of. Trimming that fat is much better than the illusion of more kontent.
