Because:
A) Fighting games are fukking expensive to produce and they don't make the money back immediately the warrant the costs, as fighting games are a long term/slow burning sales cycle. Thus the boom in DLC for fighting games as that's a viable approach to supporting a game post-launch with content, for little risk.
B) There are games that have these 'attribute/stat' change modes for you. BlazBlue: CP, Ultimax, GG Xrd, Smash all have these in their Abyss Modes. They're very good.
C) Reception to newcomers has always been sour in fighting games. Look at 3rd Strike, Tekken 4, Soul Calibur 5 or--more recently--Mortal Kombat X. People would rather have all of the ninjas in the rainbow instead of newcomers so they have to make a balance.
It's not like developers AREN'T doing these things, people like you and I who love fighters aren't receptive of them at all.
Fighting game characters are expensive to produce.
No one cares about story in fighting games. If you want a fighting game with story, play the NetherRealm titles, the Arc System Works games or better yet--a character action game.
That fukks up the competitive aspect of fighters to have customizable attributes. It's one of the reasons why default weapons are only allowed in competitive Soul Calibur and why SFxT was canned very quickly, because of Gems.
Fighting game developers aren't making these games like that.
Character action games are your thing then. Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden--all the technicalities and complexity of a fighting game, but are meant to be played solo.
...There....are????
Seriously if you're complaining that fighting games as a genre aren't trying anything new, look at:
Under Night-In Birth: EXE.late
Anarchy Reigns
Gundam Vs
Xenoverse
Pokken
Guilty Gear Xrd
Mortal Kombat X (the variation system is new to the genre completely.)
Rivals of Aether
Eight games, brand new ideas and approaches to the fighting game genre.
I think it's absurd that any fighting game this gen does not include a create your own fighter option. The majority of games that are made now do little for single players.
It's safe to say that next gen doesn't mean new ideas or gameplay but only better graphics.

After being redirected to download the game from Steam, since there was nothing placed on the actual physical disc, of which I had purchased to avoid any possible download interruptions, that had been plaguing PC users. Browsing the game’s installation folder in order to apply a fix to it’s disorienting frame-rate cap, half of the aforementioned content seemed to already be available.

Looking at the screenshot above, taken from my PC desktop, assets indicating Goro and Jason, as well as future DLC content regarding Kung Lao, Jax, Kenshi, Mileena, and many many others appear to already be pre-installed with the base game.
Pre-orders regarding Mortal Kombat X giving consumers access to Goro, and a season pass granting future access to four upcoming characters, two of which by the name of Jason Vorhees and John McTiernan’s Predator seem like an interesting buying option as well as an interesting fit for the Mortal Kombat series. Keeping the majority of which, being locked behind a pay wall, pre-installed from day one, doesn’t seem very consumer friendly.

no you guys arent being ripped off at all
DLC has been a rip off since jump. Regardless of the genre it cheapens the experince
be back in a bit

MKX's budget was probably in the $50 million range if not more. So no, they aren't ripping anyone off pricing it at $60. The DLC is a ripoff though.

So you choose to get mad over a pretty common practice in DLC production?
You know what's consumer friendly? The PS4 version of MKX being region locked. The 'easier fatality inpu't consumable. The fact that the PC version is fukking broken right now.
If you cared so much about MKX being a ripoff you would actually find more articles to blindly copy/paste like you have a damn clue on what the fukk you're talking about.

Because there was never on disc dlc till now, and fighting games were the first to do it.

All these idiots who buying season pass deserve to be taken advantage of
$60 for 24 or so characters, then charge $30 for 4 more characters and costumes

I just hate having to buy new characters that should have already been in the game on launch
I just wished 2 player CO OP Beat 'Em Ups would have evolved. Games like Streets of Rage and Urban Reign were legit fun back in the day to a nikka. shyt would have been 
seeing how those games would have evolved.
Hitting multiple nikkas with bottles or lead pipes in interactive 3D environments with PS3/PS4 graphics
As for the thread, I don't see anything wrong with wanting fighting games to have a dope story mode and extra cool features as long as it's well thought out and balanced. That's like bagging a fine ass chick that can cook and play sports. Games like Injustice and the last DOA that came out all get burn from me because of that. Street Alpha 3 did as well when it came out which had that World Tour mode where you can upgrade your player and shyt.
But on the flip side, some fighting games just aren't meant for all those extra features. For example, In theory MK basketball sounds dope, but how the hell would that shyt really turn out. I mean it would have to be some 1 on 1 or 2 on 2 type of sub game with nikkas doing all types of fukkery. Do nikkas really wanna see Raiden take the ball up court by doing that superman rush move. Johnny Cage doing shadow cross overs. shyt like that needs it's own game, but then who would actually buy a game just for that. 
Tekken pulled shyt off like that, but that doesn't mean it's for everybody.
