We were expecting a character we could create the looks, nationality and name of. Instead we get a friggin'
Pai Mei wannabe?

Why?

Pai Mei is cool. He can take your eyes out and then do the 5 Point Plam Heart Exploding Technique. Thanks for the proper name, MFS.

I think you can choose special moves and fighting styles for him. Having a totally new character designed by the player will interfere with the story line.

If that's what you were expecting that's fine, but I had a good idea from what I wanted from Konquest, and that wasn't a create a character mode, otherwise they would've named it a create a character mode tongue Konquest was never about creating Shujinko's physical appearence, it was picking which fighting styles you wanted him to use, his story won't change and neither will his look.
I was exited to see him look like Pai Mei. It would be awesome to see his fatality be the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. But I just think he will have the white hair and the bun on the top. And maybe a resemblence to the robes Pai Mei wears.

Customsing Shujinkos looks wasn't really what I was wanting to do so it doesn't bother me that the feature isn't in. It's all about mixing up the different styles in the game whilst palying as Shujinko and trying different combinations that playing as the other characters dosen't allow. That's where the fun is. What he looks like is really trivial compared to the main aspect of what he is about.

Speak for yourself. Konquest isn't create a character mode, it never was. How do you want to create your own character, if it's going to have an impact and important actions in the mk universe?
As far as I'm concerned, not even Shujinko's name should be permited to change. Shujinko is a character on his own. It's like wanting to change Sub-Zero in the Sub-Zero Mythologies game.

Sorry if i offended anyone. All i meant is when Konquest mode was first mentioned, Everybody was speculating about being able to create your own character and duke it out online.

Once again i apologise for misleading everyone.

Exactly my thoughts. Hell, Shujinko is one of the characters I'm most anticipating. Maybe in MK7 will Mortal Kombat have a true "Kreate a Kharacter" mode, but for now Shujinko is IMO a good compromise.

i think everyone thought we'd be able to make the character how we wante dhim to look, ie like a sims style build ur characters. As well as add moves, fighting style and fatalities. But I quite like the idea of having Konquest being his whole life story, from start to finish, and u get to choose his styles. Im looking forward to it actually. But I would rather he had a better name.

I wasnt saying Shujinko was the letdown, i was saying the fact that you cant customise him was the letdown

Well Im making the most of what can be customized with Shujinko and name him Chink and giving him Kung Lao's fighting styles (if the styles are selectable) since it looks like my beloved Kung Lao will not be in the game.

I don't think you can change his name, all you do is play the game as Shujinko, selecting whichever styles suit you for him.

Huh... I could have sworn Boon said something along the lines of "You'll be able to customize your fighter's appearance."

Of course, I'm probably wrong. I just thought I saw it in one of those IGN interview-mabobs.

If you change his name, how do you expect it to say "BlahFuckMuck wins"?
