Pretty disappointed about Ermac still being a servant. I mean, he was created by Shao Kahn's magic and Shao Kahn is dead. Yes, it's true that he exists inside Ermac now and that is a huge reason why I believe Ermac (being driven by Shao Kahn) would be reluctant to acknowledge anyone else as Kahn of Outworld unless it was some type of long Kahn (see what I did?).
And are we really gonna pretend that King Jerrod isn't in there? That seems way too rich of a plot point to leave out or make not canon. Seriously? Both King Jerrod and the conqueror of his entire realm reside in the same body and we aren't gonna touch on that!?
Either way, Ermac should have been an additional character struggling for the throne whether it be keeping Shao Kahn's legacy alive or reviving the legacy of King Jerrod by reclaiming Outworld and ultimately restoring Edenia.
