Still though, Shang Tsung they left much unexplored with, and if anything I'd like to see how he would do being back without Quan Chi or a rival sorcerer around, kinda like the MK1-3 days. Not to mention Quan Chi's story has been done to death now, and got the closure people were waiting for when Scorpion got his revenge and beheaded him.

And yeah, vanilla MK3 was an exception to the rule. They probably didn't realize just how popular Scorpion already was by then, and quickly fixed that mistake by putting out Ultimate MK3.
