I totally get what you're saying here; you want them to depict Liu Kang in a more gritty and realistic fashion. The Immortal Champion of Mortal Kombat certainly shouldn't be without his demons, just by virtue of being the greatest warrior Earthrealm has to offer. I found his MK Legacy portrayal very engaging and interesting (although I ultimately don't approve of him being a villain). I'd prefer him to be just a neutral wild-card like Scorpion at most...sort of like how he was portrayed in MK2/MK3 as a renegade monk who desired revenge for his slain brethren. Right. An Immortal Champion of Mortal Kombat would definitely have some built up problems. Anything could happen in the years that Mortal Kombat X is portrayed. Even if nothing happens there's still the factor of his grieving process from the Earthrealm Warriors' deaths as well as Raiden's disregard of Earthrealm safety. So he might just have a more neutral alignment rather than becoming fully villainous.
