Quan Chi though, I believe he was just there to set up Shinnok (and be an ass to Hanzo again). They did "keep up" with their decisions. You actually think they're going to make a game where many die (including fan favorites) and have no plan to go on from there? All revenants returned for chapter one, while all playable revenants remained revenants, with the exceptions of Kuai Liang and Jax. If they didn't have any plan or ideas they would've had them all revived right away.

Also, Cyber Sub-Zero is mentioned. Mostly in the comics, but also in Scorpion's chapter. The reference isn't lengthy, but it's there.
