What's new

Listing 12 characters that should return in the next Mortal Kombat

Scrubby nice guy
The main reason I lost interest in MK were the post MK3 shitty,generic, unimaginative and boring characters so I hope most of them doesnt come back. Examples? Kobra (geez what a fuckin waste of pixels) , Darius (WTF?), Shujinko (because every fighting game needs an old asian with a beard -.- ), Drahmin (whoever thought that characters design must have been high as a kite), Jarek (pointless). Also, most of the "new" female characters didnt have any personality or anything interesting about them.

I agree with all the characters you listed except Drahmin. Why him ? I know they haven't done much with him so far, but the character itself has potential IMO. What is so generic about his design ? Please tell me because I've never understood the negativity surrounding Drahmin. I could think of some very creative ways of giving life to this character.

There were also good characters post MK4. Quan-chi is my favorite MK character and Shinnok is pretty damn cool as well. Ashrah, Fujin and Nitara all have good potential. They just gotta pick the right ones and stay away from the stinkers.

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
I agree with almost everyone on that list except for Drahmin...NO Drahmin please...very duh character imo, and if anything replace him with Dairou or Hotaru.

I also wouldn't mind seeing Jatakka or Kia.

Fujin and Shinnok are no brainers, they will be in there. Raiden has to come back, I'm sure he will...

Hopefully Ermac will come back but good as he's now freed from Shao Kahn's dark magic, and give him newer moves and if he comes back PLEASE GIVE HIM ARMOR! lol give him the tk toss instead of the push or something, they can do a lot with him.

Scorpion will be back we know.

I'm guessing Sub-Zero will also be back ONE way or another...be it A. resurrection B. a Sub-Zero like character or perhaps Frost(to possibly replace him) or C. a new Sub-Zero all together(which they can very well do being as how Sub-Zero comes from Outworld(his ancestors at least) while he was technically born in Earthrealm(both Sub-Zero's)

Bo and Sareena should be back, but this time not broken to hell please... lol

I bet Kai will be the "Liu Kang" kind of character and Ashrah will be the "Kung Lao" kind of character, I just really hope her spin move Knocks you back and does NOT allow for juggles...and no teleports, really don't need another KL....lol

Nitara and Havik are also musts, need more showtime. Kenshi I wouldn't mind back either.
 
1. Hotaru 2. Hotaru 3. Hotaru 4. Hotaru 5. Hotaru 6. Reiko 7. Fujin 8. Dairu 9. Kobra 10. Hotaru 11. A playable living tree 12. Hotaru

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
Who cares i want chess mode! :DOGE
That was fun, I just hated how rage quitters would leave after 2 hours of chess kombat and they'd get no lose. Thank god all the developers fixed that now days lol.

I also liked Mortal Racing! lol

They'd better redesign Bo Rai Cho to be less of a joke if they are bringing him back, but I don't mind him.

Other than that, I think I'll be fine as long as we still have teleporting Raiden and smug Shang Tsung.

Either make new characters, or stick with Mk 1 2 3 cast. No one really cares about the sh!te in Mk after those games. Let's be real. Why would you not have a rock star cast or a garage band play?

Not sure I totally agree. After all Quan-Chi first appeared in MK4 and he is pure awesome. Its true that more than half the characters introduced from MK4 onwards were poor whereas the first 3 games had almost no poor characters at all. But there were a few post MK3 that were good or at least had potential. Shinnok for example has never really seen his full potential as a character. He could be magnificent. Same goes for a few others like Fujin, Ashrah, Havik, Hotaru, Nitara, etc. The MK team can cherry pick their way into a good cast. A very similar cast for consecutive games would be exhausting.

Kobra mad underrated. If Marvel can have Deadpool, why can't MK have Kobra?
I know I'm alone on that so whatever.

Just give him a haircut, change his attire. I like human MK fighters like Sonya, Kung Lao, Cage and Jax. We got enough Ninjas lol
remember MKA where Kobra was like the first guy you fought? lol he's like the perfect generic jobber
