Mortal Kombat has been in the media's eyes since 1992. I seriously doubt that anyone has been hurt over the idea of there not being a homosexual character till now. I never heard anyone complaining that there's a lack of homosexual characters. However, I can see how people would rejoice of there finally being a homosexual character. Take in mind, we didn't have a character of African ethnicity till MKII. In fact, the first game was supposed to have an African American character instead of Sonya called Curtis Stryker. They changed the character to female and called her Sonya Blade. They brought the name back to MK3 for Kurtis Stryker. Even then, MK1 had rumors that there was a secret character known as Nimbus Terrafaux who was African Amercan. Since MK1, they never once had a female become the hero of the story until MKX and now they also have a homosexual character.
