Tekken 8 Is A Total S@*t Show

Ойындар

One the of TEKKEN GOATs tweeted that TEKKEN 8 is “not fun”: and everyone started losing their minds.
Some players aren’t happy with the game’s new focus on aggression: [BR] and one of them is Knee, the God of TEKKEN.
You add in surprise monetization and some questionable balance decisions, and suddenly TEKKEN 8 has us asking: is this really the game’s future?

    ​@shenelljohnson74 Fighting games in the modern setting dont have enough content and are too expensive to not be a math game. If arcades and quarter to play games were huge again that would be possible. Also thats what skill based matchmaking and ranked is for so if youre casual you play more people on your level.

    The game is already $70 and has a $30 season pass, why are they adding a Battle Pass and cash shop after release? That's just insanely greedy, I can't believe people defend this. Battle passes/cash shops make sense in a free game because they don't have consistent revenue. I never want to see it in a game I already paid $100 for.

    I love it when people say "but they have to make money!" Like, did they forget that they paid for the game already? Also, regardless of the price of anything that they're offering, the use of a "premium currency" system where you almost invariably have to pay more than what you would've in order to get just about anything is absolutely awful.

    You can have battle passes in a paid game as long as you don't have to pay for it. Look at deep rock galactic, literally no one has a problem with battlepasses in there, cuz you have a shit ton of time to complete it, you can freely complete previous battlepasses and you don't have to pay for them.

    The monotization is pretty bad, the battle pass is lack luster, skins are 5 dollars each and they are full body outfits instead of individuals parts, and legacy skins are not bundled together as game sets, you cannot lab with DLC characters in practice OR fully utilize the player control in replays this is huge. So far the onlything positive about any of the monetization is the battle pass is easy to level. Compared to the shit we got in like previous games its so lame a consequence of Live service rot.

    In tekken the new heat system is alright but there is this new focus in tekken where they want to force 50/50 mixups. For those who dont play you have to duck for lows but when ducking your open to mids. But generally in t7 you avoid 50/50s by big brain side steps back dashes. Thats kinda what makes tekken a defensive game. No one likes being forced to take a mixup. No one likes that most combos if done properly can take away more than half your health. The neutral is less rewarding, and the generally slower pace of tekken is not being looked at properly. Also the current top tiers are very powerful and broken but i dont have the brain power to talk about them.

    I'm so mixed on Tekken 8 because on one hand, it's the most fun I've had with Tekken in a long time, and as someone who got into fighting games with DOA, I think it's great that stage interactions are more prevalent since taking advantage of the environment is one of my favorite aspects of that series. On the other hand, there are issues that even I, someone who has never really gone too deep into Tekken, can see. Most of them were brought up in this video, but special shoutouts to Heat's chip damage and that clip from Evo Japan of a Kuma player losing most of their health by blocking a series of EWGFs 😭 I hope the game's issues will be ironed out over time as 8 has so much potential. As for the guest character question, as I said earlier I got into FGs with DOA (5LR to be specific), so I'd be beyond overjoyed to see my girl Kasumi 😌

    ​@@xaevius5319 do you seriously believe that it's possible to create a multiplayer game that is 100% balanced at release? Even if you gave every character the exact same numbers. Kits will then be a factor as to damage output and then what. You start removing moves that people say are over powered? Now you have a linear boring game where skill is barely a factor. Flavor of the month is what keeps game alive and despite me being an advid hater of meta shit. I would rather have an established meta that I can overcome or something than a linear game where every character is pretty much the same because that's what a "balanced" game would be

    Didn’t like armor attacks in 7, and I hate them more now. And the super moves can go back to where they came from. It seems like Tekken has borrowed too much from street fighter. First they stole the super moves, then they stole Akuma, then they stole the drive gauge to give you armor and dash in, and now they’re stealing the stupid battle passes that gives you dress up items for your avatars that nobody really uses. Somebody should tell Tekken, hey, you just be you, buddy, we already like you.

    Pros dont like that interaction between characters are getting simplified to be always 50 50 scenerios. Most characters got their stances buffed or where given stances to be able to get into a mixup situation and be aggressive. But the problem is that many of these characters where balanced by the fact that while they where generally strong in neutral they lacked damage output and mixup options like xioayu in tekken 7. The fact that the game is being balanced around having guarrunteed 50 50s like in the case with lars where now you cant option select his mixup by using rage art. The problem is not adding new flashy moves or characters with strong offensive options, its just that the game is removing counter play and defensive options like options selects, side stepping grabs, etc. Also adding the shop and battle pass after all the reviews for tekken 8 came out raving about the lack of microtransactions is really scumy. The game is fun but I dont like how its being treated and the lack of respect for players both in terms of their experience with tekken, and the amount of time and effort they put into the game.

Still... when you sidestep things sometimes punishes wiff for no reason, Some power crushes don't give counter hit property when hit with a low/throw.

Of course that was short lived, since the first patch nerfed (killed) specifically Yoshimitsu, while buffing already broken characters. So this moment of having it to be taken away and the realization that Tekken isn't interested in balancing the whole roster but pushing Mishimas and a few others to divinity, making tournaments too predictable, made me lose most if not all interest.

Also let people know what changes you're making and why. Don't change matchmaking when you're fixing all the stuff you broke the first time. Also also, don't attack modders that just make cosmetic skins for characters especially when there are still hackers, cheaters, rage quitters, laggers and other nefarious elements in the competitive game scene causing issues. Also is it too much to ask to be allowed to play w/ replays that have DLC characters that we didn't purchase? Does that hurt anyone? Is it that hard to code?
