Have you played/seen/endured SFV's story mode? Capcom tried. I'm glad they did - it was interesting to see the characters interacting like that, but they have a good long way to go. I hear the MvC:i story mode was better (which isn't really an achievement).I must admit I haven't. But I remember enjoying it as much as these, and I remember Injustice 1 and 2 felt like a pretty logical continuation.
In any case, the Netherrealm story modes are really so far removed from anything else offered in the industry. Arcsys games offer a cool story mode too but they're not cinematic. Lots of reading involved and they're hard to follow. Netherrrealm are the only dev making popcorn movies of their story modes.
