Why Are GAMERS ANGRY With Tekken 8?

- The year is no stranger to controversies, no matter how well-regarded a game is, but the fighting game genre has faced exceptional backlash over the past many months. Whether it's Street Fighter 6's exorbitant outfit prices or Mortal Kombat 1's irritating monetization, fans are more fed up than ever.
So, when Bandai Namco announced a cash shop for Tekken 8, which saw exceptional acclaim after launching in January 2024, there was concern among the community. The development team promised it wouldn't be predatory like "modern stores" until it also announced a Battle Pass. As the shop went live, players finally saw the full extent of the microtransactions.
Here's what's going on with Tekken 8's monetization and why players aren't happy, especially with all the other problems the recent patch has introduced.
BASICALLY: there's been more negative reviews on steam for tekken 8 lately because bamco are pumping out tons of shoddy cash shop cosmetics while recent game updates have added new bugs. also ppl don't like battle passes. devs are like "hey, games are expensive to make, it is what it is."
I dont mind the battlepass, games are expensive, yes I however agree with you in the first point, they are pumping micro first and not fixing the main stuff. I dont mind Micro but they should fix things first then add micro.
They'd sell more games if they just made games good. Helldivers 2 is the proof.
Believe me the best Tekken game ever is 5 after that it's just downfall
@@fryrob2019 false. Gaming has become more expensive, but they also get bigger budgets. I did QA work in the industry and I know at the financial reports. Genshin impact didnt do as well as they hoped so new Execs forced them to add Fortnite MTX to make up the losses. Mind you Harada nor any of the devs pay was affected. Its the execs, shareholders, and to be honest since this is a japanese company, probably even some yakuza pay offs. This is why I along with many people left the gaming industry back in 2011 cause the writing was on the wall then. As a former QA i tell all gamers. Never support MTX, esp stuff that was free in Tekken 7 already. Buy from key sites, and watch streamers day 1. Its a shame thats what we have to do, but when outsiders influence how games are made we need to make our voices heard.
So it's the same issue MK1 had? The main focus was the shop and game play didn't even get the back seat, it got put in the trunk
It is really sad how Tekken has changed from Free content, extra side story gameplay, FREE unlocks like characters and customization items to everything that was free in previous games are now locked by a paid wall
Can you say Street Fighter vs Tekken ps3? Welcome welcome to gen 7 controversial games.
back in the day tekken tag tournament 2 ps3 if you wanted to unlock all the charachters you just have to log in on psn and that was it now almost every game you need to pay for something instead of playing the game again on hard mode to unlock it these days pay now or else suck it
My thing is if you buy the ultimate edition, why doesn’t that automatically give you access to everything the game has to offer? It’s insulting to give the ultimate edition as an option only to still make people who bought that to have to pay more.
If they had to price the ult edition with MTX it would probably be $600-700 lmao
You just got a mixup, u thought that they were going to give you all but they dont
This makes me hate the game.
I bought Ultimate Edition too and was surprised that I only got access with new characters like Eddy but the battle pass is not included.
In SF6 if you bought the deluxe edition you will have access with season 1 and battles pass.
Yeah what would a true ultimate version for GTA V cost? $10 000? Halo Infinite? $3000?
The true cost of games isn’t $70 anymore. It’s $70 plus as much as you want to spend
Anybody who buys the ultimate edition for any game at release is just an idiot
I love that a video about Tekken 8 is exactly 8 minutes and 8 seconds.
Bamco: development is more expensive than it was years ago so we need something that gives us money to put more content into the game
Also Bamco: the content is copypaste items from previous tekkens with bad quality. Literally same customization items that were free in previous tekkens.
Tekken playerbase: we dont want to give you money for same bad quality items! We are angry!
Bamco: *surprised pikachu face*
Christie and lucky Chloe are my main
nope
The insult makes it that much worse with content from the past they now wanna price tag for some reason
@@JoEs_Do9ok w@nker
@@omarmks6670then don't buy it. stop being a victim.
Don't forget the competitive scene. They broke the game with the latest "patch" and pros ain't happy. Not the mention the balance issues. They flat out REFUSE to balance Azuzena and a few other characters. And they rather give us another broken character in Eddy. Pros are not happy with how its become Tekken Casino. Basically, nobody is happy with their purchase right now. And Bamco seems to wanna double down on the bs broken characters, pay to win and pay to customize. It's all one quick cash grab and fans aint happy.
Tekken 8: "Bait & Switch"
Tekken Beight
Tekken 8: Jack n Go ;)
Ironic, as it isn't on Switch. lol
I'm mad because Eddy doesn't have a character episode.
wait! D L C characters don't get character episodes!
@@77wolfblade Nope
Or a new stage
Same happened in Tekken 7 dlc characters as well nobody had an arcade ending it was frustrating even if it was just still images that’s better than no ending
@@77wolfblade i think they said they will add additional story for all 4 characters after they are out, which plays out at the same time as the main story. not sure about character endings though.
One of my main issues with Tekken 8 is the fact that grabs have homing also heat shouldn't have armor because we have rage art for that also another thing is rank I want to he able to fight someone in my rank not someone who's like 5 ranks above me
You can change it to only except fights within 2 ranks of you. You can’t change in quick match
@@ib5995 Yes I know I can change it to 2 but I'm talking about changing it to one 1
All the while, good guy games like Rise of the Ronin, with no micro transactions go unappreciated.
Team ninja delivers lots of full package high effort games that are like 40-60 hours long like Nioh and no one gives them credit for it. Nioh, Wo long, Ronin all have tons of unique styles and or weapons that come base game but no one ever acknowledges it.
Gonna be honest here: graphics are really appealing for players and if a game looks horrible and has a ubisoft open world it will go underappreciated. And it launched the same day dragons dogma 2 did
Interesting because all i see is praise for ghost of tsushimas ubisoft open world, what im saying is you are dead wrong and just echoing nonsense from echochamber
What even is the "ubisoft openworld" i will show you games in your library with exactly that lol
Ronin is good- period.
@@NickJoeBeg👏👏👏 Well said. The world is full of whiney crybabies now. *clears throat* excuse me … a bunch of lying whiney crybabies.
@@TheFivegoodemperors they are simple grindy games though. With PS3 graphics. Still fun tho
So glad that people are getting fed up with this crap
It doesn't matter they will buy the crap anyway
Same people who pay for of.
Over reaching greed is ruining games......
Yes, that's why a high percentage of gamers are going back to previous gens
G t a is one of the few successful games that still manages to pump out tons of free content to keep the game fresh
A true fan of Tekken here and I have play every single chapter since tekken 3, guess what? this tradition will end here, I felt already pretty crappy with tekken 7 and the season pass but somehow i could accept it as it will give me anyway tons of hours and fresh gameplay (totally not justificable the frame one) but here with t8? Oh boy.. Namco here is pushing away basically any previous customers, season pass, battle pass, pre-orders, premium coins, shop, mod support removal, unbalanced gameplay, cheaters, no penalty, bruh, are you serious?
Well it was a pleasure until it lasted, goodbye..
Yep fuck Harada and MM both shit the bed. Never buying this trash game. Just gonna play Sparkling Zero.
That's because Tekken doesn't have a competitor. It's literally a game in its' own genre right now. Yeah, I'm not gonna go play some 2d oneme fighter where I can't even strafe.
We need Starcraft 2 in fighting games tbh: a competitive game created by passionate people about the game and then sustained for years and in the end balanced *by the community* , exactly like Starcraft 2 is right now: the game is balanced by the best professionals and big streamers(that are also top grandmasters of the game).
@@KulaGGin "Tekken doesn't have a competitor"
That's not true? There is Dead or Alive where T7 have literally copied the heat engage, altrough for the next couple of years this might be the case since the previous project got cancelled.. Similarly there is Soul Calibur (from the same devs), Virtua Fighter with the upcoming 6 chapter and all the 2d games around, kinda hard to miss those..(Not sure why your fanatism would make you blind)
@@UnlimitedGameZone1 _"There is Dead or Alive where T7 have literally copied the heat engage"_
But Dead or Alive isn't a real fighting game? It's a coomer microtransaction game? Like, for real, just look at it.
But if they copied the heat engage, I see, I didn't know.
_"Similarly there is Soul Calibur (from the same devs)"_
It's dead. The series is dead and I think they confirmed it was pretty much the last game in the series and they started adding sword characters to Tekken instead.
_"Virtua Fighter with the upcoming 6 chapter and all the 2d games around, kinda hard to miss those..(Not sure why your fanatism would make you blind)"_
Virtua fighter isn't on PC, and PC is the main platform.
2D games is not the same genre tbh. It's like comparing Animal Royale: a 2D game with top down view that has battle royale mode to PUBG, it's not the same genre of games.
I don't have a fanatism for Tekken tbh. Give me a good balanced 3D fighting game with good movement that I can play and I'll switch today.
In fact, I don't like Tekken 8 so much that I'm probably going to switch anyway to a better game. Starcraft 2 looking good: good balanced competitive game where scrubby teammates can't bring you down, that's what I like.
For me too. Im a Fan since Tekken 1 whom i was about 10 years old. I played every major game since then. Tekken 6 was godly. For 7 i had a bit of a pause cause i dont pay for dlc in general and wait for complete editions. Thats the Version i got there and it was okay cause it has all content in there.
But Tekken 8 is a complete mess. Dont know if i will go any further than this right now 😢
Companies already know that a game with hype can be exploited for micro transactions. That’s why I wait for the definitive edition! Months after release! You are likely to get all if not most of this little perks! Beside my back log is so long I can afford to wait. Phuck these companies and their corporate greed! My money will do the talking for me! And they are not getting it!
The fact people thought tekken getting more Mainstream would lead to a better game is hilarious. Enjoy your battle pass with no hehachi or reason to do anything other than heat 50 50s. The fact they tripled down on all the lame shit in tekken 7 was a big enough clue this game would suck
5 min of the demo was enough t8 for my lifetime.
Yep 50/50 game for noobs and rеtаrds with +5 and +7 on hit tracking lows from which you frame trap with launchers that often also track and safe on block.
You know Heihachi is dead, right?
Seen this coming with my byakugan. You 2 million enjoy. Perhaps I'll join you in 2 to 3 years if a complete edition is released.
They forgot the majority of Tekken fans are Tekken elites that have played it for years - Bamco really thought they can treat them like Fortnite Kids
I don't play modern games much but it interesting to see how much its has changed esp for a series like tekken from beating the game with different characters to unlock everything of old to all the pay for play or access.......but as the game industry has ballooned into this behemoth and gotten so mainstream I find alot of it to be getting worse and worse as times goes on....greed truly rules.....I find much more enjoyment in older fighting games from playstation 1,2,3...even Dreamcast and Sega Saturn was just playing KOF and Capcom vs SNK2 and Im reminded that often times less is more.
T8 is also the scrubbiest one with 2 win buttons.
So true
For one thing, adding cosmetic shop with the borked currency conversion model most of us know after release and reviews gave glowing recommendations lead to skeptical players that are now not trusting the game but still somewhat willing to pay. But when quality starts taking a hit, the fundamental game has no practical means of fighting cheating or dealing with rage quitting(don't know why its called plugging) while suddenly attacking and copyright striking cosmetic Modders w/o warning is just the worst look. Then the latest patch borks the game, yeah.... We have problems now.
It's called plugging probably due to the roots of the term dating back to unplugging your controller during a set to signal that you've conceded defeat and it just carried over into online matchmaking when people alt+f4 or force close the game on a console
also them attacking modders. Several modders had their youtube channels attacked and one prolific modder is going to have his channel removed. Now to be fair a lot of the mods were lewd (see FF XIV drama about modding to get a better idea) but some were legacy costumes. The thing is some of these modders stream and u see the level of dedication they have for the game. Gamers take my advice, don't believe any game company. Cause someone like Harada has no damn clue what his legal department is doing. And if u come at them they will just block you. Best way is with your wallets.
Believe it’s slang for pulling the plug on your Ethernet cable, used to be players would do that so if they were threatened with bans they could try and say they didn’t quit it was their internet connection dropping. Why they always say it’s good to report people cause there are legitimately some people with bad connections/speeds in 2024. But if they get tons of reports it’s harder for them to refute that.
@@DrClownPhD _"It's called plugging probably due to the roots of the term dating back to unplugging your controller"_
No, it's called plugging because you unplug the ethernet cable from the jack and unplug from the internet. That's how you would do it back when Tekken was only on consoles.
@@vash254 _"Best way is with your wallets"_
That's not the best way and barely ever works. For a good example how voting with the wallets doesn't work, look into 20th century gasoline lead drama and just capitalism in general. Watch some vids on the economics and see economists show you how it doesn't work. You know what really works? Regulations. That's how you make the capitalists afraid, by changing the laws. That's exactly what happened in the gasoline lead scandal and in the case with 21st century with companies taking all our data.
These people clearly dont know what's happening in the game or even play the game in the first place. The microtransactions are annoying yes but its the HEAT and other broken game mechanics that resulted in players not liking the game. Even Knee himself the oldest tekken pro player said as much. While the microtransactions are NOT good in themselves yes, they have to fix the broken unbalanced mechanics first because that is what ruined the game.
Om top of everything mentioned here, balance in the game is non existent
Finally a video from GamingBolt that I agree with.
Games are expensive to make so we have to charge you out the wazoo for all this stuff, nearly $200 to be exact.
...did we also that in two years when you finally own all this stuff we're going to have a "Complete" version that constantly goes on sale for $20?
It’s sad, This game is better than Tekken 7. But the content on here has been pretty sparse. The customization options are lack luster. If Tekken keeps going this way. This will be the last time I get the game. Last time I bought a Streefighter game was Street Fighter x Tekken for the Vita.
Dragons dogma 2 a GOTY contender? Lmao whoever wrote your AI script should be fired immediately.
Because Tekken players are the biggest babies.
I should know, I love Tekken.
It’s very simple. The game released and it was the best fighting game out. The game was extremely good in many areas and the ones it lacked in were excusable. But then, a month after release there’s a store. They didn’t tell you day 1 like every other game, they waited until you bought the game, started maining characters, put hours into it. And then as if a store selling you legacy outfits that were in the previous game wasn’t enough-they add a Battlepass in this $70 game. This $70 *FIGHTING GAME.* Hypermonetization is why people are mad.
It wouldn't be a problem if the cosmetics were new. Someone gets paid to design and model the new skins and it's up to you if that's worth 5$ or whatever. But some of this stuff is 10+ years old and they took it out of the game to sell it back to us in the shop. If Raven gets an all new Blade collab skin when the upcoming movie comes out I am sure as hell buying it and don't see a problem with that but I'm not paying for costumes and skins that got made 15+ years ago.
Wait for the swimsuit skins to be on tekken shop then everyone will be well this a must and buy it anyways lol.
Ah the good’ol “hype and positive reviews then release microtransactions after all that” business tactic. Must be really effective.
It would be less shitty if the monetisation provided for better quality and NEW cosmetic items, the premium battlepass didn't try to create fomo and they weren't charging for add on characters as well which is basically the equivalent of a map pack in an online shooter, and these paid map packs in shooters haven't existed since these games moved on to the cosmetic mtx model. People would be a lot less mad if it was more like the helldivers 2 model or like tf2 or something
They give pro gamers and people that game all day long the advantage, im too grown and have too many responsibilities to compete at that level, i have to be a kid again to do so.
It would be ok to sell bulll...st, when the gameplay is right, tho its not, its broken. Totally unballanced... so what now?they will nerf one character every month? Drag in may, Jin in june... Its pretty toxic to play against Law every second game...
The primary catalyst behind the drama within the Fighting Game Community (FGC) is financial incentives. Game developers aim to appeal to a broader audience, enticing casual players to invest in the game to meet financial targets. Conversely, purists, composed of seasoned professionals and old-school players, compete in tournaments to earn income. Balancing gameplay to accommodate both casual and professional players reduces the likelihood of success for the latter group. If the game becomes more challenging, it risks alienating new players and potentially impacting future profitability.
Im really annoyed how I can't change eddy in the game menu.
Agreed, it would be cool if you could change it or it changed to a random character on boot up.
I think people would have been less upset with the store and battle pass if it launched with the game. Releasing it after the initial reviews was just scummy.
If I knew I wouldn't have bought the game.
Any/every micro transaction is scummy
Games in the 90s were 20$-50$.
Is getting out of control . Base game almost 100 Bucks
Arcade games were 50c a pop. At 60 plays you pay 30 dollars… I have over 3000 online ranked matches alone. Not counting offline matches at locals. 🤷🏽♂️
And theres no vs offline counter youll never know ur score against your frnd@@lamontsnipes5229
Literally nothing nothing changed then 😂
@@kumiliarostreamsarchives3079And they will tell you you're not paying enough.
Let's keep the same energy gran turismo 7 received after launch when everyone complained about the dlc packs.
Main problem is fixing stuff in the game, like pluggers, balance. There is not point complaining about micro, just dont buy them
Yeah I never play online so have never been bothered by microtransactions. I'm probably in the minority but I play to get away from people 😊 For example I play madden, fifa, and nba 2k, which have crazy amounts of microtransactions. I just ignore them and play the SP modes.
@@dctrbrass or play online and just dont care
Tekken 7 was a burning trash fire and 8 is a giant sh*t in that same dumpster.
I really wish that the year 1 season pass was sold separately from the two other editions
because they made me buy a PS5 just for tekken 8😢
Rising cost is BS, we were over charged in the 90s as well its called PRICE FIXING
Eh games were expensive in the 90s because of the cartridge based games, Nintendo charged developers for cartridges and that set the price for games at like 80 bucks. Cartridge based games are just expensive to produce, that's why cd based games blew up so quickly, they were cheap to make and held more storage dropping the prices of games in the late 90s early 2000s. Bluray disk are more expensive to produce so the prices went back up. But now with more digital games than physical games being sold you'd think they'd lower the price, but they can't because games are bigger now, takes more people to make them, bigger and faster computers to build them. Gaming is expensive. You have to pay these 200 to 800 people working on these games and when they don't sell well we always see lay offs shortly after because they lost money on the game and can't afford to pay 200 to 800 people. Basically if they tried to lower the price of games now, triple a games would just get shorter and less detailed, and we would see a ton of lay offs happen at these companies.
Lmao no
@cameronpritchett8300 the fact that games cost 80 in the 90s is crazy. Convert that to today's economy and we will be well dam near 200.
Sometimes I feel like the cost of game development has been artificially heightened just to force the devs to implement these unnecessary microtransactions.
@@cameronpritchett8300 It also means they need to sell a lot more copies to break-even if they lower prices.
This also why I feel the structure for how game developers have to pay to make their games needs to change. There's no reason why they should be paying thousands of dollars every time they want to make new character models or any other assets inside the game they're making when they literally have the engine and dev kits needed to make their games in their offices. Why not have them pay by time, rather than by every usage? Have them come with a timeframe for the development of the game and ANY ASSETS they create for the game WITHIN THE TIME FRAME is completely FREE OF CHARGE. This way, they can make loads of content without worrying about overspending on their budget because they're just paying for the time of usage. And if they need more time than what they projected they would need for finishing the game, just have them pay for the extra time needed then.
The problem with this game is that it allows people to cheat easily by lag switching, hacks and people who physically abuse the buttons just to get a win. A mash potato 🥔 can become a gourmet salad 🥗 in an instant
I calculated over this and it's interesting that they wont tell you how much the game cost to make.
But even if they spent on the higher end of a triple A game then they already made enough to make another tekken and run the servers for quite a while.
It is dishonest what harada has done
Tekken used to be one of my favorite games… now it’s just a bittersweet nostalgia feeling
Hate to disappoint everyone but this is absolutely the worst tekken, been playing since tekken 1 min 1. Spoiler alert the devs only created Tekken 8 for the general casual gamer. Not if you've been playing tekken 10 + yrs & are long time vet. U never have to pick up a fighting gm & go into a rank match button smash xxxxxyyyyy modern control your way or heat whatever special attack your way to the W & become a Warrior, Tekken Lord rank in a matter of hours. Whereas in tekken 6, 7 Tekken tag tournament 2 it' could take u months to a year+ weeks in practice/training to precisely learn the different combos, combinations, juggling, timing, reversals, reversal combos. & even then your still traveversing on TH-cam to make sure it's down correctly. On Tekken 8. ( 1 to 2 button does mostly 86% of everyone's moves w exception of a few ppls) examples not everyone & there grandma should be able to pull off Kings 10 hit pile driver suplex wo fail, Spoiler alert not possible in Tekken 7 or 6 WO the proper practice & Tekken 7 (Asuka has an reversal of her own to counter King if timed correctly). Also the customizations in this are a joke there the worst customizations in any Tekken gm to date. I have my characters customized as DC & power Rangers & anime characters in other Tekken gms & in this god awful thing we have to brake our banks more Nameco needs to give up the rights if there going to go down this micrransanction pandering to the general masses route.
Currently (May 2nd, 2024), recent reviews are 33% positive. I think it's still too high.
Simple solution: DO NOT buy anything in the game!
This is one of those games that you wait to go on sale, especially because of the micro transactions 👀
Still ain't gonna buy it. Not even if it was 10 dollars. Fuck Harada and fuck MM. They killed this franchise with t8. The only thing that will save it is if in 10 years t9 is what t8 should've been.
They could sell it for $0 and getting all of the content will still be more expensive than the $70 base price.
I was waiting for sale because it was expensive in the first place while I have other games I already have fun with. Now after announcing this f2p F-tier MMO cash shop and a weak battlepass, I am not even sure if I wanna wait for the sale anymore.
Hmmm dunno why people would be mad that a company held back a battle pass for over a month for a full price game that’s never had a battle pass before so critics and day 1 players couldn’t call it out in their reviews. I dunno tho it’s a mystery 🤷♂️
This is why I hate microtransactions within fighting games
Why I hate fighting games in general, 60 now 70 for the game plus 150 or more for season passes and shit
@@lamebeast i can understand that
5:55, this is a lie. Don't believe any AAA gaming company talking about development costs.
What they did to law all his moves are rearranged and taken away only 1 combo not 2 weak power hits it’s horrible what they did too my boi he can’t even go into his dance anymore
I hate Tekken because it turned into Street fighter. The moves, the micro transactions, all of it. It stopped being Tekken after 5.
I miss the knockout reply that was a great feature getting to see that final blow was the best
Will there be rage selection options and will jin have his blood vengeance movie outfit
Imagine buying the game only to have for Eddie Gordo to be available
Can't they just disable exiting an online match? Think that would solve players quitting
You know you don't have to purchase things, nor do we need a video complaining about optional micro transactions
Imo, this game feels like it should be ftp
Imma just wait 5 years or so until it’s $20 on OfferUp
More than double the cost of Tekken 7 and they'll sell more than double in the end. And with the price of micros you could have it as half the price over an 8yr period and make the 70$
Looks like Tekken 8 does have a good amount of free customizable fashion? I don#t have it but redd seems to say so.
Something people love to forget is that triple A games are literally half price now.
No one bat an eyelid when 20+ years ago games were 60 bucks but they forget that the price has remained the exact same or at best like Tekken 8 has gone up by 10 bucks and 60$ today is only barely above 30$ 20 years ago.
For once _some_ of the monetization is not pure corporate greed but justified. They obviously all go over board because they will always be greedy fucks but to some extent it's actually reasonable because the drop in value is basically 50% by now, maybe 45% for 70$ games like Tekken 8 which is the same as triple A games having a massive discount from the start and only ever getting cheaper with other discounts stacking ontop.
It's a fighting game for casuals, not for serious tournament pros. Of course they gonna try to milk the hell out of them.
It's currently one of the 3 most competitive fighting game in Esport, alongside Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat.
What are you smoking, man? It’s been top 3 for a while. This one might be the most casual friendly among them, but it’s still up there with MK and SF.
The customization on offer in this game is so limited, incredibly disappointing. I'm not going to be buying until this game is heavily discounted with several DLC bundles thrown in
I don't mind there being paid stuff, as long as they keep updating and releasing new characters.
Yea, new characters also being behind paywall like Eddy 💀
i uninstalled after getting plugged 5 times straight. and seeing my favorite fighting game get the “quadruple A” treatment.
modern gaming is a joke.
The devs did a sucker punch with the tekken shop and battlepass which was introduced after the reviews happened! Im turned off abit tbh , going to take a break till they fix their shit.
Imagine buying the collectors edition and expecting every costume and cosmetic 😬 man.... That was a waste, model was cool tho!
Maybe one of the reasons is because some characters lost their identity in Tekken 8
I don’t care for MTXs and Battlepasses and in fact avoid these - but what I think really needs to be stopped is the bait and switch. That’s not only misleading being that they charge the cost of what a complete full priced game is but IMO surprised there isn’t a lawyer out there suing them for these types of practices. Either disclose to your consumers that you will have battle passes and MTXs BEFORE taking any money even preorders or don’t include them at all or have them be like really menial - kinda like what Dragons Dogma 2 did. I still don’t like that they didn’t exactly disclose but those MTXs were in the first game and they listed them in the deluxe editions.
If the rewards is classic ps1 polygon as cosmetic skin. That would be rewarding.
It’s the players and eddy is just an added issue
TH-cam new layout makes me angry
Just pir@te Triple A, micro transactions my @$$ it's more like MACROtransactions.
- Give me the battle pass money
- You'll get your battle pass money when you fix these damn rankeds!
Guess and hope this will the last of the series... Adding more character and legacy I think is much better than what they are doing right now.
Let people complain about it and am sure nothing will happen.
Just remember when DOA went through this they react like the end of world but now other big companies within unique titles went upon the same process. 😉
Never buying this trash game.
They've been doing this since generation 7. That's why ps2 reign supreme. 6th gen is the golden age of gamimg. It's good for the industries and customers' satisfactions. Now it's basically good for the industries but customers' satisfactions are mid to low satisfy.
Or maybe ppl finally realised how terrible the heat mechanic is 🤷🏾♂️
Yes I experience it it's just too bad tekken is no more tekken.
These games are in house scheming. Mk1 just had this issue, with online fight crashing an now Tekken has the same issue
Soul Calibur 2 had the FIRST AI player cloneing 2001, aka the player you made played like you when its was controlled by the game, never seen again in #gaming
Also a tough as nails game to beat even on hard I tried recently got crushed. 😂 As opposed to Tekken 8 on ultra which is relatively easy.
Killer Instinct also did this in 2013.
Those games made me so mad fighting the cpu i had to get rid of them haha
If they added tag team to this tekken nobody would be touching street biter chicks
36% positive as of April 25, 2024.
Dont get me wrong. The game is fun but there is no denying that its overloaded with scrubby mechanics
I draw the line at having to pay to for progression. I could care less about cosmetics although I do remember when you could unlock and customize your characters in tekken with just in game currency!!!
Let's not forget that there are also a lot more players than there used to be and games are selling in completely different numbers than they used to So they can stick It's that games are now so expensive to produce If it's so bad, why do it at all, let them leave it There are people who are profitable even without it Games are now a huge business, bigger than movies, it has pros and cons The biggest problem is the people in suits who are greedy and only look at the numbers in their accounts
Respect For the player, it doesn't exist, they only see us as wallets With some problems to themI know, everyone wants to make money, but everything has its limits and I hope that the players will remind them of that
So glad that Baldurs Gate 3 exists.
The game of the gen so far imo. Shocked at the quality.
A little soft background music perhaps? 😅
this aint tekken its Namcos new IP "Heat and Rage Art Smasher"
Just leave the modders alone.
Is it still fun on SP mode? I've been waiting for a sale. I don't play online.
Yeah - microtransactions don't affect singleplayer at all, and the game offers decent amount of SP content. Though again, the meat of the game is in MP modes, so you may want to branch out eventually.
Demo version is pretty fun vs the ghost but it feels incomplete in the demo version. It is smart sometimes but can be cheesed with some stuff.
I'm on demo and it's fun.
Thanks for the replies. I tried playing online years ago, and it's just not for me. I'll look for this on sale.
If you just want solo player fighters play dbz kakarot the rest are very thin
We cannot be this mad about battle passes. Also we're mad at MK1, the honeymoon period for SF6 is over, where's the GG Strive players at, namco told us we dont support Soul Calibur and angry at this. What's left?
Jeeez, dunno. Bad balance, not good online, poor optimization, mtx... I have no idea, truly.
Already sold over 2 million copies
It will outpace MK1 soon
Mk1 is trash. I'm so mad I was duped into buying that garbage.
It won't cause I'm not buying it. And everyone who was gonna buy it already did.
The big problem about the battlepass shit some off these stuff are from tekken 7 and some from tag 2
I can agree, i really love Tekken 8, cause of Gameplay, and the Content, and the new Updates dosen't really make the Game bad for me, but the Battle Pass is completely wack, especially the Items are not worthy
