@Uglyguy: I believe that Kenshi lost his site before MK1. Shang Tsung was looking for a sourse to collect souls so he may live longer. He did with the help of Kenshi and he paid the price with his eyes. So, I do believe that Kenshi will be in this game with his blindness. I know that Kenshi's appearance in MK2011 is technically non-canon but I doubt that Boon would make him blind in MK2011 and not in MKX.

Is Legacy based on MK1? I was so confused by that because of what was going on with Liu Kang. He was so pissed at Earth humans that he didn't want to defend them again. Was there already a Mortal Kombat tournament or something like it somewhere else?

@Heatcheck: I don't think we'll see Motaro. We could see a decendent of Motaro. We were talking on another thread that Motaro could have a daughter. We don't know much about Motaro other than just what he's done in the games and what he looks like.

Yes, Kai should get some loving in this game.

Edenia is merged with Outworld still. So unless if someone finds the orb of Edenia and releases it then I doubt that Edenia is going anywhere. I know he had that little incident with Shang Tsung and got blind before MK 1, but I said he theorically shouldn't be present in MK 9 and Legacy simply because he wasn't in MK 1 for some reason. Actually, has anyone ever stopped to think about this? Kenshi had been wanting to kill Shang Tsung and release the souls of his ancestors since before the first game, so what kept him from showing up until Deadly Alliance? I know he was only created in Deadly Alliance, but has nobody ever thought of an excuse for him not to have confronted Shang Tsung before that? Like writing in his biography: "Kenshi has sought revenge on Shang Tsung for years, but for some reason, only started to do something about it by the time of Deadly Alliance"

And if we think a little more, we will remember that, technically, the souls of his ancestors weren't set free from Shang Tsung, were they? Maybe if Shang Tsung had been killed normally, like with his heart stabbed or being decapitated, all the souls he had absorbed in his life would habe been released from his body, but instead Shao Kahn took all of his energy and his life to infuse it into Sindel, empowering her. Isn't that supposed to mean that the souls of Kenshi's ancestors were actually infused into Sindel too? Could they have been unleashed when she was killed? Well, this would be terrible, as Shang Tsung's life energy would have been unleashed from her body as well and maybe he could be ressurected. This is so damn confusing.

How many times have I wrote "Shang Tsung" in this comment?
