Mortal Kombat have various sub-plots along with the main one, so, no, following is not the same as focusing, specially when it became clear that other emperors would appear. And a story that happens during 25 years focusing only one character, specially in a MK game, makes absolutely no sense. star wars did have other plots, the war with the empire vs rebels, vaders conflict, Han and Leia's relationship. the focus was one all of these things, or the story followed all of these events if you will.

the games spans 25 year and hes a god, so how would it being about him make no sense? no one said he wouldnt be involved in Shinnoks invasion (or against it) or that you wouldnt play as other characters and just him. he would just be the main character, look at MK9 Raiden was the Main character in MK9 but the story focused on other characters that you could play on too like Liu Kang, SOnya, Kitana etc. No, in Star Wars there were minor relationships. None of them was covered as a sub-plot. Vader only got a small conflict after he met Luke, and that wasn't shown in a really good way as both characters didn't meet that much in the trilogy.

Because Mortal Kombat is a fighting game. Fighting games never focus only in one story, in MK9, other characters, besides Raiden, had sub-plots in each chapter. Kotal Kahn would have already been introduced in some sort of way if he was actually going to be the protagonist, Raiden was the first one shown alongside Shao Kahn in MK9, your arguments make absolutely no sense.
