      Shit made me tear up back in HS. Ever since deception I would always look forward to seeing if he’d make it into any new games. Glad he’s finally back even if it’s just a KAMEO.
      Hopefully in a future Kombat pack we can get a revamped shujinko

    I really liked Shujinko’s story. I remember buying deception on holiday and finishing the konquest mode before I got home. A bit tedious at times but I had fun all the same.
    Wouldn’t mind if more fighting games had an open world story mode.

    Shujinko is so underrated he was fooled throughout his life making him tragic but he defeated Onaga who was the closest to the one being and redeemed himself and is actually one of the most powerful characters oh and btw that 15:35 that was Shang tsung on the steps dead not shujinko because u can see those hooks Liu kang used on him in the MKA intro

    Konquest mode was really something special,it's ashame they've never brought it back. If they really wanted MK1 to be 3D era inspired they should've had Konquest mode again. We were so close to getting it too, they literally had the blueprints from MK11's Krypt mode. Raiden and Kung Lao or Fujin could've been the main characters, it could've been great. Only in my dreams I guess.

    NRS really need to bring back both shujinko and taven as a main central character again because both shujinko and taven was completely replace both dark lord raiden and zombie liu kang as main protagonists in 2nd last timeline of titan kronika NRS completely forget about both shujinko and taven.

      They need to bring back a deception type konquest mode were it's a open world type but with today's type of gaming tech they could add soo much more like better looking environments, more people and things, swimming, climbing maybe a S/M type open world fighting style with normal screen 1v1 at times and soo. much more.

      I respectfully disagree about Taven, I just think they dropped the ball with that story. They were kinda boring characters to me (Taven and Daegon). Also, just don't dig the names. However, I do respect your opinion, and I do feel maybe they could make em better today, but I'd rather them just make new characters. lol. I do love Shujinko, though. My siblings and I had tons of hours of fun playing that Konquest mode.

    Plot hole: So, if Shujinko was able to absorb the fighting abilities of all fighters during the battle against Onaga, why couldn't he do the same at the Pyramid? I think Boon and the writers had regrets about Shujinko.

    • @danny18894
      @danny18894 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      He doesn't absorb as in "Takes the powers away" he absorbs and takes the powers and learns them as if they were his own. Even with that ability having an entire army of people fighting for Blaze's power there's bound to be a group of enemies ganging up or attacking people with sneak attacks of some sort. Either way there were strong people there like Shinnok , Onaga and Shao Kahn so Shujinko was bound to die or close to the last few remaining.

    • @riotd.r.8363
      @riotd.r.8363 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I know he doesn't take powers away, but in the ending of Deception he gathers all their powers and strikes down Onaga, who was strong enough to withstand the might of Raiden, Shang Tsung and Quan Chi. Just feel like Shujinko got nerfed.

    I think Shunjinko’s story is cool, but I believe that at least in part for why he didn’t catch on is that his default design is of the “old martial arts” archetype. It doesn’t help that people In and Out of universe have mistaken him for old Shang Tsung. So I think they should have had ended his aging when he only had a Grey streak in his hair, something that makes him standout.

    Shujinko was a great protagonist and could have replaced Liu Kang if the fandom was ready for it. It’s not the traditional protagonist in that he inadvertently created the world state we experienced due to being deceived. That type of writing was always intriguing to me because it’s typically that of a side character in lore but Shujinko was a main character and we got to experience that story with him. It would have been great to see his story further develop or even re explored in the NRS trilogy. Perhaps an alternate MK11 that continued along the ending of Kotal’s MKX ending where Outworld would in some ways become a bit more sympathetic due to the influence of Dark Raiden in Earthrealm. What was and could have been.

Even if it's a spin off game or something, I feel the MK story has really been lacking since MKX despite some awesome moments and ideas. Also I missed out on that game and didn't get in fighting games until MK9 which is still my favourite MK, MKX is a close second.

    Shu definitely falls under the category of being the audience's character, we have an idea of what to expect but we're also exploring the everything for the first time. He does take a long time to build some personality like questioning the purpose of his quest after so many years, I used to argue that his blind loyalty was under the idea of a divine being's quest is expected to be followed without question but given the number of years he's been imprisoned should've been more than enough to reflect on his task, however the new era is giving him the Kung Lao treatment. With Lao still being more self-prideful and arrogant in this era, it offers both him and Shu an opportunity to both grow together and hopefully improve on their own flaws.

    Were clearly seeing set ups for shujinko, however if nrs was smarter, let raiden have his rest and give the man his fair due. Liu kang is now a god, shujinko easily becomes champion for this time he wouldn't have journeyed alone while influenced by onaga but by comrades with great influences. To mention him is a step forward, just MK1 should have been his time, not paradox raiden. As for the other changes in this era, they need to not involve other possibilities. Having a multiverse is not only confusing, but takes away what makes mk what it is.

    Never liked Shujinko in the first place, I wasn’t even a big Liu Kang fan but was shocked they killed him in Deadly Alliance and then in Deception we had a zombie Liu Kang and then were expected to except Shujinko as the main protagonist. It just made me more grateful to have Liu Kang back even though he’s still not a favourite character of mine I can still except him as the game’s main protagonist. I didn’t mind if NRS wanted to bring Shujinko back because he was just a kameo character as I get younger fans might of liked Shujinko but I had played Mortal Kombat for over 10yrs with Liu Kang as the protagonist before Shujinko was a character. In MK9, MKX & MK11 I didn’t mind that Raiden had come more to the forefront of the series as he had been in every game except MK3 and was a god as well as Earth Realm’s protector. But to have a character come in at the 6th game (8th if you include UMK3 & Trilogy) and expect him to be the main protagonist wasn’t going to work for me, it’s ok if you came in during the 3D era or from MK4 onwards. It’s like I never really excepted Shinnok as the main antagonist as Shao Kahn is my favourite character and even though at the time I liked the idea of Onaga he still didn’t replace Shao Kahn in the end. And I was worried that in MK One we weren’t going to get Shao but we did and I like his changes like his horns and battle axe (never was a fan of the wrath hammer), but my second favourite character Noob Saibot hasn’t returned yet though I hope he will make a comeback in the story expansion maybe being Sub Zero and Scorpion’s father maybe who we find out was killed by Bi-Han so he could become Grandmaster of the Lin Kuei or just from another timeline but I like the murdered father idea
