You got to give him credit for that, his upgrade is truly self-taught, Raiden's lightning powers and Kenshi's Sento were pre-existing powers.

[@HeliumHelios]

Knowing most if not all kung lao has similar weapon of choice throughout various timelines, it really asks you if the choice was predestined.

[@OceansBane]

@@HeliumHelios maybe as part of the great Kung Lao’s bloodline, it is their ability to craft their powers.

I mean, Raiden got his shortly after this but I get your point.

[@tacoman107]

I like how you can see Cage record Kung Lao when he brings his bladed hat. Cage was really getting inspiration every chance he got. Also, makes sense how a lot of Kung Lao’s abilities were naturally self taught considering he defeated pretty much everyone in MK9. However, his victory got the better of him against Shao Khan. Nice to see his pride is stillas strong as ever.

[@JF59122]

I want to see some strong character development for him in the story expansion.

[@Scarecrow_555]

​@@lengoc6818I'd like to think that the shaolin taught him and Johnny some magic to give them a better chance against outworld. It would explain how Johnny shadow kicks since we know he can when he does it to Goro at the lantern festival. And we know earthrealmers can learn magic. E.g. Scorpion, Sub-Zero and Smoke.

[@Yawnjoo5]

wonder if one of the other 3 won the rights to represent, how would liu kang come to the power giving part? Johnny: "I have unlocked your innate power, found within your bloodline from a Mediterranean war cult" Kung Lao: "Forged by the Elder Gods, this amulet gives you control over wind" Kenshi: "Johnny please surrender Sento to the victor"

[@frankmoolah]

The most calm and collected NPC I've ever seen in my life while caught in the middle of death battle... Second round's on me 🤣🤣🤣

[@vanthadoun1]

Gotta give the script writers for MK1 credit, there were alot of character origin and plotpoints that were explained and went into more detail. Thank God these writers didn't go on strike like the Hollywood ones, and I can almost guarantee they don't get paid as much as the Hollywood writers! (Just my honest opinion)

[@chestbumphero]

I would say they didn’t go on strike because this game has been cooking for a good few years now. If anything I’d say they had about 85-90% of the game done by the time of the strikes

[@persondavis1294]

Agree but I will say its human nature to feel resentment when something unfair is happening even when u have it good; so im not surprised about the strike, but I wonder if this is a chance for newer writers to get in.

Figures, the last movie they left out Johnny Cage because they were so woke, they refused to write dialog for a straight white male that is literally an arrogant and misogynistic parody of an 80s action star. He was endearing comic relief, now just a side joke. His generation wouldn't be videoing.
