Uh, you do realize this game takes place during the timeframe that Deception did, right?

I can't imagine Quan Chi dying over 25 years later just to prevent the resurrection of Onaga's army. That'd be ludicrous.

I hope he finally bites the bullet. It's been far too convenient lately for NRS to explain something bad happening with "Quan Chi did it" and so he needs to go.

I'm just tired of him getting away with everything.

He'll always be my favorite character, but at this point the super cleverness may start to get annoying. Eventually he has to slip up. No one's that damn smart.

I don't want him to die, though it would be very sensible if he did. I just want him to get a long-deserved ass whooping, kinda like when he got to see Scorpion whoop his ass in Deception. That was very satisfying.

However, I'd prefer if Shinnok was the one to do it.

For sake of accuracy (and annoying people who like Street Fighter): Those people keep getting it backwards. Ryu and Ken are the Scorpion and Sub-Zero of Street Fighter.

Quan Chi is a character I love to hate; he's a manipulative, conniving backstabber, who always seems to get his way. His crimes include shifting the blame to Sub-Zero for the murder of Scorpion's family, and proceeding to transform him into a servant once Scorpion killed him. He betrayed his own master to gain the power of the Amulet for himself. Even when Scorpion found out about his deeds and pursued him all throughout the Netherrealm, he ended up finding an unbeatable army and used it to kill the majority of the good guys. He betrayed Shang Tsung and somehow survived the blast that killed Raiden and Shang, apparently surviving until Armageddon where he and all the other characters in the franchise died.

In the new timeline I hated him even more, for stealing Shang Tsung's scenes as well as the souls of most of Raiden's forces.

The point is, I'm ready to see him die. I'm ready to see his plan finally backfire on him, and watch him die a glorious, violent death. I do think Scorpion should be the one to defeat him (after he finds out the truth again), but maybe it shouldn't JUST be him to finish the job; I'd like to see Scorpion letting Quan Chi be ripped apart by his own Netherrealm slaves, whether they consist of the undead MK9 warriors or some other characters Quan Chi had control over.

But what do you guys think. Should this game be the one where Mortal Kombat's puppeteer gets his just desserts? Or should Quan Chi live to fight another day?



Yes good plan!

Let overusedion (scorpion) kill another one of my favorite characters (Quan Chi)

NO I hope Quan Chi tortures Scorpion and Sub-Zero a lot more and eventually kills them. (I can dream...)

Maybe D'Vorah could kill him, that way at least you'd have another favorite of yours do something badass. I'm sure it would make up for your favorite character dying.

Actually, I'd argue that so many people genuinely disliking him makes Quan one of the more effective villains in the series.

Yes, that is correct. it's just that his role was overplayed at the expense of Shang Tsung, and for some reason he is only smart because everyone else around him is a total idiot.


If Scorpion does away with him for good, it would mean some serious man-points for him. The death of Quan Chi....

If Scorpion kills Quan Chi, his spirit will find rest and Scorpion has forfilled his only goal in his pathetic unlife.

He will stop to excist.

And Boon doesn't want that, so Quan Chi will never die, because when he dies, Scorpion fades away with him.

Scorpion is a Spectre, spectres in myths and legends are ghosts born by vengeance, when the source of the vengeance dies, the spectre finds peace of heart and descents into the afterlife.

That doesn't mean he has to fade into obscurity...and to believe otherwise is laughable. Scorpion, gone from MK? NRS is going to toss away perhaps the most recognizable character of the game (right or wrong)? Just because he FINALLY concluded his worn-out story arc and couldn't possibly begin another?

Don't mind Chrome. He is just as forgettable as the character with the same name from X-men.

Anyway in most myths Spectres are pretty much the same thing as Revenants, forces of hate and vengeance, doomed to haunt the place of death until they finally release themselves from this torture and can escape into the afterlife.

How?

-Ryu/Ken came out before Scorpion/SubZero
-Ryu/Ken are more popular
-Ryu/Ken are known all around the globe (japan/asia barely gives a shit about MK)
-Ryu/Ken were the mascots of SF at an early stage tan Scorpion/Subby became MK icons/mascots

Ok I don't like Scorpion and Sub-Zero because they are too famous for my taste, but they are actually ok characters all together.

Ryu and Ken... I never got behind their popularity at all (especially not of Ryu's)... Just bland human fighters... While there is Vega, M.Bison and Rose.

Ryu was in fact the first character I ever really hated when I was young, never understood all this extreme fanfare in my class when they saw something about Ryu... And everybody shoots fireballs from their hands... that is nothing new at all.

If Quan chi dies, i hope to "not" see him defeated by "just" someone. He's too powerful and iconic to just die imo.

But WHEN did i say Ryu/Ken are better? It's like you completely ignored my post full of FACTS.

And i always cringe when i read your posts slamming the human characters.
