It's very fitting the first end boss in MK history would come back as the big threat in Aftermath, things have come full circle, with Liu Kang and him both becoming gods and still holding the same grudge they had as mortals. Aftermath was a villain story mode in disguise even going so far as to give the option of a bad end. Bonus points for getting the actor from the original MK movie for it, this was his summer blockbuster movie in a game.

@@livingcorpse5664 I remember, too. I avoided all magazine reports (didn't have internet back then yet) and was so happy to get my first MK ever (past MKs were basically non available to me in Germany, because authorities deemed the games too violent, thus - long story short - they got banned unless game developers would censor their games massively for our market), so watching the intro after putting in the game disc... I was honestly SHOCKED. I was like "They... they wouldn't. Would they...? Nah, they CAN'T. They'll reverse it at the end of the game, I'm sure." 😅 Well. They didn't. Not only not in this game - nor the next. Not even in the Midway era of these games anymore. They sure stuck to their resolve and story, no matter what.

Always trust a snake to lie, but you never know what an honest man will do. Shang Tsung is ironically one of the most trustworthy characters in the series. He acts in his own self interest, so as long as his self interest is helping you. The only worry is if someone else offers him a better deal.

In the altered timeline she didn't protect Earth. Quan Chi claimed she did but it was a lie. He poisoned her and put a barrier around the Earth himself to disable later and trick Shao Kahn into invading Earth. He wanted Kahn out of the way so Shinnok could return and rule everything.

Only hole I can find in any Shang Tsung lore is in mortal kombat deception there's a side quest in the beginning of the konquest mode when you first talk to Bo RI Cho then some of the female townspeople you find out that he refuses to enter the tournament because he was born in outworld he would fight for outworld but wouldn't that also apply to Shang Tsung since he was originally born in earthrealm? There's probably a good explanation that I'm completely unaware of
@GamerThumbTV
@GamerThumbTV Год назад
Yes, you are correct. The rules of the tournament have never been fleshed out in any real way lol. The best explanation I can think of is that Shang Tsung was considered the host of the tournament so I guess he chooses his side?

Fire God Liu Kang's New Era sets up Shaolin Monks 2, which hopefully gets made and sees you playing as the Great Kung Lao. I feel like this new era will still see the return of Shang Tsung, as time is bound to repeat itself. The most that FG Liu Kang can do is monitor him much closer than previous gods have, and maybe...not punish him the way he was previously. Nether Realm Studios did Shang Tsung character justice, and portrayed him as he should be. Truly one of the greatest villains in video game history.

We technically don't know that. Since there's no MK12 yet we don't know what ending they'll go with. Before Aftermath everyone assumed the Kitana ending was the canon one since it was the "best" ending. But they went with the neutral Raiden one.

Liu Kang is the son of onaga. Cetrion gave it away when she says to Kang that he wields the flame of onaga. Liu Kang responded by saying he's not related to the dragon king. Cetrion then tells him that mortals are always so self assured. Liu Kang is an orphan raised by monks and never knew his true parentage. Kang can transform into a dragon and uses dragon fire. Could it be that onaga had sex with a Chinese woman and Liu Kang is their offspring? Lol
@GamerThumbTV
@GamerThumbTV 4 года назад
You can take that statement in different ways. Personally, I hate the idea that he's descended from Onaga. I don't feel it's really necessary. Like you said, did a dragon sleep with a human woman lol? Then again, maybe Onaga's original form was human?
