he has the same moves as kenshi I belive plus a couple of his own

Thats right...

ive seen him do a telekenetic bomb thing where he jumps up and slams on the ground, ive also seen him fly (yay) then kick the opponant.

first, kenshi stole ermac's moves. second, ermac has;
zig-zag soul projectile
telekenetic throw
telekenetic slam
levitate
dive kick from levitate
back slam from levitate

Instead Of Telekensis kenshi should of had mind control kinda like magneto where he can stop swords w/e weapons he senses a threat to him to be avoided i think hes a rip off of ermac boon was retarted for doing this.

Ermac is a ton of souls put together into a warrior, who has telekinetic powers. Kenshi is a blind swordsman with telekinetic powers. He's a rip off just because he has the same powers?

SPOILERS AT THE END
I think people just want everything to be unique. The same people that hate Kenshi or Ermac for having each others powers probably hated Frost or Sub Zero for the same reason. People just need to understand that just because someone has the same powers doesn't mean they will play the same. The winning strategy for Ermac might not focus as much on using special moves as using weapons, while Kenshi might be more useful stringing combos and putting specials in between the combos. And still its not like their fighting styles are the same, they are completely two different characters.
SPOILERS BELLOW
And their stories; Kenshi teaming up with Sub Zero (check the profiles) and Ermac being good trying to right his wrongs by saving Liu Kang's allies now. Thats some serious potential.

ermac turning good was kind of a disappointment, I'd much rather have rain return over ermac. kenshi is just a generally unappealing character, and ermac's new costume is cool but religiously charged from the looks of it

I totally disagree with your assertion on Kenshi. I found him to be the most interesting new character from DA. His story is awesome, has a cool outfit, and actually was in the upper mid to low high tier in DA.

Kenshi is to Ermac what Frost is to Sub-Zero... and many call Frost a cheap rip off.

If people say Frost is a rip off of Sub-Zero cause she has freezing powers also, then why dont you people also say Sub-Zero(younger) was a rip off of Sub-Zero(older).
Kenshi didnt steal Ermacs moves, 'cause Ermac was the one who taught them to Kenshi, so there is a difference between stealing and learning.
Kenshi is also a blind person who was/is seeking revenge on Shang Tsung while Ermac is made of many souls combined together, who used to be evil, under the control of Shao Kahn. Untill Kenshi came along and freed him for Shao Kahns control, In return Ermac taught Kenshi his powers himself, so Kenshi couldn't of stolen it. Ermac is now on a quest freeing allies of Lui Kang.( 2 different story lines, 2 different people, 2 original characters)
Kenshi and Ermac are bound to have some same moves since they are somewhat master and apprentice.
Another thing is that Kenshi and Ermac have 3 different styles, so yes they are going to have different gameplay makeing them not the same. Its not like they are sharing each others styles wich would be awfull if they ever did.
So saying all that is needed, Kenshi isnt a rip off, nor is unoriginal. He is someone totally different than Ermac, only that they share one thing in common, telekinesis.
Anything else I need to compare and contrast between these 2 characters?

u misunderstood i said hes a rip off of ermack in deception if him and ermac have same moves as each other in that game why did they even bother puttin him in that game i love ermac i have since the mortal kombat annihilation but look at frost her moves were totally different from sub zeros
*BTW* Didnt kung lao kinda remind u of raiden in mkda cuz of his 2ndary outfit.???

Kenshi is going have some of Ermacs moved in deception, You can quote me on that one too. But yes they will also have some different.
[off topic]Kung lao's second outfit didnt remind me of Raiden at all. I dont see a resemblance between their costumes. only them wearing a hat but their hats were different last time I checked.

look at raidens boots and sash and pants they sorda look the same only different colors.

Well I haven't played MK:DA recently so I wouldn't remember much about each character, But we are getting way off topic,
Maybe you should make a thread on MK:DA discussion, Hopefully maybe you can find someone there who may agree with what you think, if anyone still goes there...
