This might mix things up in-game. But in a bad way, i might add.
Being able to change to the guy you're fighting? Well, it could work, but it all depends on the details. Will you have new attacks and combos? Do you need to know how to play all the other characters before paying this old geezer?
Anyways, I'm hoping it'll be cool, but not OP.

.... Are you guys trolling... he use to always be able to change forms... I... I... I need a drink... seriously you guys drove me back to my Jameson.
Shang Tsung is and forever will be my favourite Mortal Kombat character. I only hope that he is actually a playable character because I remember Ed Boon saying he wanted to go back to "Boss" character's (Goro, Shao Khan, ect) like how it was in the old MK games in which they aren't playable.
Okay. I found that that the entire point of the trailer was lost on me due to one overriding thought that ran through my head the whole time it was playing:
What's up with that stupid chest tattoo?

On topic I am liking what I see from these trailers so far
If it's like MKII/U-MK3, then yes, you would have to know the combos of all the other characters when you transform in to them. The transformation only works for a limited time, but you can also use the other characters' Fatalities, Babalities, etc.Owlslayer said:
He was a great character to play if you were familiar with the other characters, but he was by no means overpowered, as you also had to memorize double or triple the button combos for transforming into the other characters, on top of his regular moves.
I just might get this one. I never really was into MK and haven't really played much of them since MK3, but this one looks(story-wise) to be getting back to its roots.
Shang Tsung was the last opponent to beat the first MK, and he could change into any of the fighters he wanted. I never really got to play MK2, but I did play MK3. In MK3, Shang Tsung is a playable character from the start, and if you know the movements you can change into whatever character you want.
Edit: Crap, my slow typing got me ninja'd.
I'm going to take it that you haven't played one of the first three Mortal Kombat games, considering when you were born.Owlslayer said:

Someone is obviously new to Mortal Kombat. Shang Tsung has been able to transform into all other fighters since he was first playable (well, he was always able to do it, but YOU can too since MK2)Owlslayer said:
You don't need to know, but it helps. However its not that hard. Its more an issue of knowing HOW to change into who you want. In Trilogy, I could only ever become Raiden, Cyrax, or sometimes Kung Lao...
