And then comes the final boss fight! And it just happens! You just run into the room and there's the Black Knight.

->Shinnok was an elder god who attempted to conquer Earthrealm with a special amulet he made, which weakened the dimensional barriers. When Raiden found out, Shinnok got his ass kicked and was sent to the Netherrealm. From there, he managed to dethrone Lucifer himself and become the ruler of hell. So when Quan Chi returns with his amulet in ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombat4 MK4]]'', where he can launch another assault on Earth, you'd expect him to be [[BiggerBad a pretty huge badass, right?]] ...Well, no. In fact, Shinnok's quite possibly one of the lamest final bosses in the series. He can steal the moves from other characters and summon skeleton hands, but that's more or less it, which is pretty lame for a guy who '''''overthrew Lucifer.''''' In his return appearance in ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombatArmageddon Armageddon]]'', he doesn't even get the [[{{Nerf}} gimped]] morph.

->Jenova gets gypped. Even though she's the single most important figure in the story and makes such an engaging and downright frightening antagonist, she just ends up playing [[TheDragon second fiddle]] to the pretty boy in the black cape. Maybe it's the Lovecraft fan in me, but an [[LovecraftLight ancient cosmic being coming back to life and manipulating humans to its own insidious, unfathomable ends]] seems more menacing and deserving of the 'primary antagonist' designation than a Norman Bates with a nicer wig and longer knife... But as it goes, Jenova's role in the plot is gradually marginalized as ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' unfolds, and then she barely even puts up a fight during her final showdown with AVALANCHE. I can't say why, but I feel I should be blaming [[Creator/TetsuyaNomura Nomura]] for this one.
