I think Karras appearing directly would have ruined his character. He's this kind of overbearing presence that's just looming over every aspect of The City. All of his followers speak about him like he's a God, all of his robots have his face and speak with his voice, the rest of the citizens are either trying to get on his good side or at least hide from his wrath, he's everywhere.

And for most of the game it's like he's fully aware of what you're doing. Start messing with his control of the City Guard? They show up at your house and try to kill you. Sneak into his fortress? He's got a recorded message specifically for you and guards lining every inch of the path back to safety.

Suddenly running into the tiny midget guy that he actually is would have made it impossible to take him seriously as a villain.
