hmmm the explanation of fujin staying on earth seems very logical. but that bids an even bigger question - why wasn't raiden in mk3, when it took place in earthrealm??? riddle me that one guys

I didnt really care for Fujin. His costume was too much like a super hero. If he was redone and made to look cooler, then id say he should return.......

In MK3, Shao Kahn was using his magic to turn Earth into a part of Outworld, And being Earth's protector, He had no power... All he could do was sit back and watch. But he did manage to protect some Earth warriors' souls so they could fight against Shao Kahn. And that's why Fujin didn't venture out with them to Outworld in MK:DA because he would have been powerless. Raiden however, Didn't have those bonds anymore and could do as he wished.

An obvious and simple explanation. It says it right in his message tot eh earth warriors during the MK3 attract screen, and I quote:

"I can no longer interfere, as your realm is now governed by the Outworld Gods."

Raiden and all of Earthrealm's gods lost their power and were nothing.

Besides Quan Chi, Fujin was the only other character in MK4 that I liked. It would be cool to see him incorporated in some way.

I thought Shinnok was alright too, but really, he was just a Shang rip.

Quan and Fujin are the only ones that I ever hope to see from MK4. I didn't like that installment too much.

wise. maybe thats the same concept for mk6 and thats y there aren't any returning mkda earth warriors confirmed. well except for subzero. i dunno. but fujin should def. be in it. but lose the crossbow weapon.

fujin was ok in mk4 but i far prefered him mkm:s. in that game he had the cape thing going on and some very nasty special moves. in mk4 he was too close to ermac for my tastes and it would be odd with ermac, kenshi and him to all have levitation moves. but fujin returning would be a lot better than jax, stryker, and the rest of the lamers.

Fujin should deffintly return, but instead of levitation change him to speed and wind attacks IE push from a distance, and a twister or somthing, he should keep the red cloak and long pony tailed grey hair, he should have a spear as a weapon

Exactly.

imagine if he was to return, and one of his special moves was he makes a huge 3d tornado (i mean huge- not a storm tornado from st. fighter)
the tornado stays on the level and u fight around it, and when your opponent gets to close, he gets sucked up and thrown. of couse, u'd be limited to only one tornado per battle. and plus the arenas are huge anyway and the opponent could flee the scene easily, so the tornado would be "unfair" it would take skill to master. what yall fujin fans think?

It would make sense for Fujin to appear in this game, if Raiden is not selectable.
