Shaolin Trailer + Bo rai cho

I'm just glad the "Lui Kang is the big bad" and the "Lui Kang didn't die" theory is now vanquished. I never made sense to begin with.

Same here. I think I have more of a problem with people saying that he never died more than guessing he's the end boss. Reasons why is just, granted that I see him overcoming great odds, but him getting electrocuted by an Elder God is something I really don't see him surviving.

I could see it happening.
Not the whole "You can see him breathing afterwards" theory, but I can definitely see him being in a coma because of it.
He's the MK Champion and at 1 point was Raiden's Champion, after all.
 
You sit here and bash Incubuslord for being a hypocrite, yet you're sitting here mocking me because I don't necessarily see your personal favorite character being an end boss. Nice, I truly love when people act less than their age over something so incredibly pointless.

Not to mention, I never said anything about Fujin being an end boss. If you actually paid attention and decided to not mock me, you would have read that I said "For those who see Fujin being more of a possibility than Reiko." Never did I once said I see him being the end boss.

So how about you knock it off and grow up?

Let cool heads prevail, you two.

While it is a possibility, I really just cannot see him surviving after that. Maybe he could have is "fluck you" to Raiden before he initially passes over, but I dunno. Seeing that scene again just doesn't speak "Liu survived that!"

Wait, how was Raiden an Elder God during MK9? I thought he was just the Protector God of Earthrealm.

If he is/isn't, I've just always called him that.

Ohhh, sorry my bad. I just got a little confused.

Also yes, it is nice to end the "Liu didn't die" thing. It just didn't seem plausible for him to survive after being simultaneously burnt and electrocuted and especially since he was just kinda left there till Raiden beat Shao Kahn.

Nah, I should really stop calling Raiden that if he's not.

Not to mention, I doubt Sonya and Cage were doing anything for him after getting flown several feet by Kahn.

Well, it seemed plausible, IMO.
I also found it a bit strange that Raiden would teleport Liu's corpse, along with Sonya, Johnny and himself.

It's confirmed now that he did die, though.

Time will tell, but yes, I do see it both ways, believe me. I do feel part of me saying that Liu probably has like 1% life left after Raiden teleports and Liu might get some nice words... again... to Raiden before finally passing.

That, to me, hinted at Raiden trying to revive him (aka Zombie Kang again if he was dead, or trying to fully heal him, if he was alive).

It's confirmed now that he did die, though.
 
Can someone explain to me like I'm 5, how there is an unlockable character? Since when was that a thing? Cause as I understand it, we now know the whole roster.

I think someone mentioned here saying that it's an unlockable.

It's looking more and more likely that Shinnok is the unlockable character.
It wouldn't make any sense for him to be playable from the start.

Ed Boon said that there was an unlockable character after beating MKX story mode, which debunks Liu Kang and Shinnok (IMO) as unlockable characters, since I HIGHLY doubt that NRS would spoil their own unlockable character in various trailers.

My guess is that the unlockable character in MKX is Fujin, Havik, Reiko or someone else.

Ed Boon or someone from NRS said we unlock a character after beating Story Mode.

Here's hoping for someone awesome because I would not find it all rewarding to unlock Liu Kang last. I didn't even find it all that rewarding unlocking him last in Deception.

In MK9 playing through story mode gave us Quan Chi and Cyber Sub Zero. So someone on twitter asked Ed Boon if there will be an unlockable story mode character for MKX, and he said that there would be. The trophy/achievement leak also has two for finishing story mode, one for half way and one for finishing it completely. Hence even though we know the roster, we could have one (or two) unlockables.

Here's that damn shoe picture.


Cheers for those who always though Liu's shoe was for a woman! :-P[/QUOTE]

Thank you, everyone for clearing that up for me. I had no idea. So what you all are guessing is that the unlockable character/s aren't anyone that we already know is in the game and on the roster?
