Yes and also no, considering that Cassie isn't a child. In the story mode, Sonya is trapped under rubble in a builsing set to explode. Cassie tried desperately to free her, but Sonya (being the General) orders Cassie to save herself, with her final words to her being "Give your dad a kiss for me."

Technically no. Mileena's second fatality and most of her brutalities do involve eating people, but since she is not a human and is a genetic mix between a Tarkatan and the blood of her Edenian sister, Kitana, that may not be considered cannibalism, but it's different for everyone.

To a point, yes. Some of the fatal blows, fatalities, and brutalities have realistic sound effects, especially Baraka and Mileena's, which involve eating people. However, the sounds are often covered up by other in-game sound effects and aren't very noticeable unless you connect headphones to your console controller. However, if you are killed in the Krypt by being attacked by a spider in the Kytinn Hive or by being cut in half in the Torture Chambers, there are some(what) gory sounds.

Probably not existentialism in its own right, but 11's Canon ending has Liu Kang resetting the timeline, and several changes being made as a result (Kuai Liang, who was Sub-Zero, becomes Scorpion instead of Hanzo Hasahi), which I assume could be enough for someone.
