After analyzing this character from what we have seen on his two forms , some questions Popped out.When i refer to his 2 forms i mean the one we have seen at E3 when he is a young apprentice and is taught martial arts by Bo Rai Cho, the other form we haven't seen yet but im sure we will is the one of an old man that may resemble a little bit to Pai Mei from KB2 or Edge Master from SC. If you see the select screen from the pictures of E3 you can see at the right of Sindel an old chinese man, this is Shujinko, if you sk my sources, Konquerr has mentioned it before and as you know he has accurate inside information as may not be official its a reliable source. After mentioning this the questions are s follows:

1.- If You're able to customize your character in the Konquest mode why is shujinko a playable character on the Kombat mode, my point here is that if he is already progrmmed as a playable character what is the level of customization youll be able todo on him?

2.- If he's a playable character and you can customize that means he has programmed all the fighting styles and weapon combos avuable on the game which makes it a hell of a work.

3.- As well as fighting styles he may have as well been programmed with all the fatlities.

4.-If he's indeed the only character y ou can customize i mean that everybody will have the same shujinko but with different styles and or fatalities, IMO that is lame.

Your thoughts.....

Shujinko is just going to be able to have different styles and fatalities. He will look exactly the same as their is no customizing of his appereance. Very lame. I lost A LOT of interest in konquest mode after I learned everybody will have the same generic monk.

I think that when everyone has their 'Shujinko', these will be the variations:

1. You choose his 3 fighting styles (including weapon)
2. You choose his special powers/moves
3. You choose his fatality(s)

Also, they could do a points system type thing. For example, my Shujinko might be faster, but your Shujinko might be stronger, or able to take more damage..etc

This will be FAAARRR better than the Konquest mode in MK:DA, so I'm not complaining one bit.

He will have THE most expansive story, more so than ANY other character, and one in which you actually get to WITNESS/MOLD/EXPERIENCE in-game.

Sounds like a huge step in the right direction to me, and will pave the way for a real character creation mode in the next game.

all i like to think of it as u "unlock" this character by controlling his life, its like u have to unlock noob, u go online, you will all have the same noob

I'm pretty certain that his name will be customizable too, unless someone actually HEARD it in game, i believe that name is just being used in the early stages.

I think they'll keep the name as the default name, but still give you the choice of whether or not you want to change it.

I would prefer the announcer speaks my characters name, so I won't be changing it.

Oh, and I did hear the word "Shujinko" being spoken by one of the characters in Konquest mode.

I really think he must have the name in order to be announced and so, another pointer here would e , if he could be playable online on both his forms (young and old).

So this character must have many other features, as blade tsung said the customization may go further and let you make yous shujinko faster, taller , heavier or stronger, i think that was a good point.

Shujinko is just like every other MK fighter. it's just you get to play his story and pick his styles. don't think of it as custom more like just another fighter. I'll play KA first. I like how it's turning out so far

What is KA???

Anyways, I think it is somewhat a letdown. Either they should've had a Create-A-Character mode, or a RPG-style mode where you unlock a new character. I don't like how they mixed the two. I just don't see it being very successful as an RPG or even a Create-A-Character mode. I think MK should've separated these two instead of combining them.

My opinions only :

1. I am hoping that besides the 3 alternate possibilities of this character that he will have a large colour range and possible accessories, ala VF Evo, ie you can unlock extra colours, different headware etc througout Konquest. This way although we'll all have the same character he can be made to look very different.

2. It's a matter of just coding all possible styles into the one character. All these styles already exist. It shouldn't be that big a hurdle.

3. I can't see why it isn't possible for him to have 1 or 2 unique fatalities.

4. see point 1.

First of all, I'm pissed. The Gamepro, or whatever magazine which was the first to release an article about Deception said that you'd be able to customize your character with jewlery and stuff to make him look unique. Now, Boon is saying you won't be able to customize the appearance of your character at all. I'll put him in the game, but I won't be playing with him online. There's no fun in having all the fighters look exactly the same way.

i think he should be able to customize in konquest but in kombat mode he is a set charactor but you can take your kustom online

That is one thing that confuses me, how are we going to tell the difference between different player's Shujinko.

The least the creators could do is add a color change in Shujinko's costume so that you could tell the difference of everyone's character.

I never thought you'd be able to customize him, at least not a lot. Some of the Posts I saw on here, I believe are the reason a lot of you will be left down. I think one was called "what will your creat-a-character look like?". I don't think we were ever told that you'd be able to customize them to that extent, and as soon as I heard he was a monk (which usually means a uniformed character) I assumed that it was going to just be move/fighting style limited.

People tend to look into things much further than they should, and thus are let down when the facts are revealed. THe konquest mode will still rock, and so likely will Shujinko.
