I want to see Hotaru, Dairou, Darrius and Havik back from Deception. I love the concept of Order vs Chaos.

I always thought Hotaru was a cool design and concept. He could be the Hitler of MK. He has a lot of move potential too with Lava, Naginata, and his armor. I really want to see his and Haviks rivalry play out. Dairou and Darrius really brought Hotaru down, so they need to stay away. I think Hotaru will definitely return. He is extremely underrated. His appearance needs to be changed a little so he doesnt look so much like Fujin. I heard a rumor that Hotaru was going to be the boss of MK8, before it turned into MKvsDC. I feel like they had a lot of plans for Hotaru and Havik but they never got to be realized.

as long as his MKD secondary is his MKXI primary, or at least the general idea of it

Not without a major redesign. He and Dairou are probably my least favorite MK characters ever.

I could do without Dairou, but I liked Hotaru, Havik, and Darrius a lot. Havik and Darrius were fucking hilarious.

Hotaru was my absolute favorite from a batch of boring, uninteresting new characters in Deception. I'd like to see him back as long as they can shy away from shoving the order vs chaos storyline down our throats. It made the MK mythos too convoluted.

Sure.

Darrius and Dairu are both welcomed as well, they just need some major tweaking and maybe something outside of the Order/Chaos story- Havik and Hotaru presented that perfectly, we didn't need those two piggybacking off of it.

I loved that original idea of Darrius being the red dragon leader. Though now with Daegon having that role he needs something new.

I felt it worked within the realms of the Kamidogus and existence being the One Being's counsciousness in physical form, or whatever they had going on around that time. Especially in Deception where Edenia was further developped as a place of peace and art.

All the realms represented a part of what our minds is composed of.

In this current timeline, with the amount of characters we have now, I'd be fine with soldier-turned-tyrant Hotaru trying to take over other realms and rule them with an iron fist.

Hotaru will be raiden's ally in mk11 because Raiden wants all of this realm invasion stuff to end and hotaru wants order.

But yes obviously put him in.

He has a beautiful design, but I honestly hated the Chaosrealm/Orderrealm stuff. It felt extraneous.

Only if the Seido vs. Chaosrealm storyline gets the love and attention it deserves.

Given that we'll presumably see Raiden as the big bad of MK11 and the Neatherrealm forces as the good guys, I feel that it would just complicate the narrative. Save the four order/chaos fighters for MK12. I'd be much more interested in Liu Kang's arc in MK11.

Absolutely.





Personally I think he's one of the best designed MK characters ever.

Honestly tho. They detailed Hotaru so well. Armor, Flags, White Hair, Naginata, etc. He has so much to him.

I really like his alt, I hope if he does return he has that as a costume. I wouldn't mind Hotaru tbh, he's a welcomed addition.

I think the character had a very boring design. I have nothing against the character, but if they bring him back, I hope he gets a MAJOR redesign.

I loved the Orderrealm characters. I want them all back. Darrius and Hotaru are two of my favorites.

Yes! I'm so sick of them always bring the same freaking characters from MK1 to MK3..
Post MK3 characters need to return.

No... I hated Darius, Dairou, Hotaru... YES I agree we need more characters in the games than the mk1-3 era... but there are others I would MUCH rather see..

Give me Havik, but I don't need an Order realmer just because I have a Chaos realmer..

Hotaru would be so much better if Dairou and Darrius stayed Far away.

Having both of them brutally executed would be a great way to open his story chapter and introduce him into the main storyline of MKXI

Hotaru and Havik are the only Order/Chaos characters I'd want to see come back. There was nothing special about Dairou and Darrius.

Not really. He, along with Dairou, Darrius and Drahmin, could all follow Hsu Hao's path as far as I'm concerned.

Though I guess if I HAD to choose one from that bunch, it would be Hotaru.

I'm a big fan of Dairou, but if Hotaru was introduced as having killed the Resistance and took control of Seido and is now trying to expand his rule to other realms, I would totally be fine with that.

I'll pass on Hotaru, but I'll gladly take Havik
