Can we just forget either of them existed?

I kind of feel like Skarlet isn't even a canon character. She was just a DLC idea to go with the nostalgia theme since there were lots of hidden characters in the early games.

Nitara, if they could make her interesting somehow, I'm all for a reappearance.

You feel like she isn't canon but she's the one chained up in Kahn's Arena so that makes no sense. Skarlet is very interesting character with her blood power and her being an assassin for Shao Kahn, now that he's dead she can forge her own path. Plus she's my namesake so she has to stay around lol.

I don't want to offend anyone by bashing their favorite character, this is just how I feel about the situation. I still don't really see Skarlet as a canon character, even with her in the background of Kahn's arena. I don't find her interesting, she's basically Ermac, except with blood instead of souls. Also, How many assassins do we already have? If Kahn only really trusts the enforcers of his that he created, he's already got Mileena, does he need Skarket?

Nitara was okay, I never really cared about her although her primary costume in MKDA would have looked nice on Sindel. Nitara was the first vampire in the series, so that's kind of something. If they could make her worth a shit with an interesting story, I would not mind seeing her again. Skarlet was, from the beginning, just another assassin.

Just because you don't like the character doesn't mean she isn't canon. :/

I never said it did. I'm just stating my views on the character.

No offense taken everyone is entitled to their own opinions, Skarlet was created as a last resort only to be freed from her chains when Kahn was desperate. Also her mission was to monitor Quan Chi and find out his motives. Kahn could only trust his creations ala Ermac, Skarlet & Mileena until he dies then they all start to become their own person and fight for their own reasons. Skarlet definitely is my most favorite new character introduced since Deception.

No I said that "I don't feel" like Skarlet is a canon character. I said "I don't really view her" as a canon character. I made no inference that my opinion was right. I was just stating how I view Skarlet.

Skarlet is a DLC and Nitara is worse.

Nitara back in would basically be Ed Boon saying: "Remember this female vampire that you couldn't give a fuck about in the fifth installment.? It's back so that you get to not give a fuck about her again"

What an odd thing to say. I could understand if you said you didn't like her and said "I don't want her to be canon", because that would express your dislike for her.

What you do is questioning if she is canon or not, based on that you don't like her and don't want her to be... That's not really any valid information.

It's not meant to be, it's an opinion.

Skarlet was a very boring and generic character, but still better than the other Shao assassins with the exception of Jade, I doubt she'll be back, especially not in MKX.
