Tekken has a history of having bears, kangeroo, android, cyborg, demons, dinosaur etc + guest characters. Victor should be the least of peoples worries. I'm okay with Victor. However good points are being made about Victor being a mix of Kuni, Noctis etc. Virtua Fighter is for the fg purist. ❤
Bro you gotta make more Q&A videos and it's so satisfying that you put these trolls in place, keep up the good work, you have my support and let's pray that Eddy will be the first DLC character for spring 2024.
I really liked your point on how when even if your main comes out like 2 years later, that's 2 years of catchup that you have to do vs someone who had their main from day 1. Only way I could see mitigating that to some extent is to find a different character that you can use to learn the universal mechanics of the game and then apply that mechanical knowledge to your main once they come out. Thats what I will try to do with Katarina and Azucena.
I really want to try Azucena but everyone is going use come launch day. I hope it won’t be a Feng Wei situation with her, seeing everyone use her like that would be a turn off for me. So I hope that won’t happen 💯
Thx for the shoutout bro! I appreciate it You always speak the truth, you're critical and passionate in this hobby/profession. You always want the best out of the dev team and the community. The love and passion is real out here and u have ppl who just want to cause havoc cuz they know they ain't as successful nor have anyone supporting them in their lives, keep doing u and one day I hope u make it to a 1M subs. When comes to Tekken historically it has a history of being serious but at the same having fun with exaggerated stuff such as fighting animals, robots, cyborgs, demons etc. And on top characters like Yoshimitsu Kunimitsu Bryan Fury AND Raven who been using weapons and Devil Jin having anime like moves which I don't mind. But when the weapons and the anime-like movement like the teleports projectiles the slight air combos get too excessive it defeats the purpose of it being a true hand to hand 3D fighter. Victor I do like his design but his moveset and combos defeat the authenticity of Tekken. Same can be said for Alisa and even Master Raven but all of those can be toned down. Better they just gave him styles such as Escrima Tang Su Do or Praying Mantis hell even Baji Quan never yet Tekken has had a Baji Quan character.
Also tbh I think Harada has something against black women characters….. yeah I said it! Why or how you ask? Because the only ones we have ever gotten are clones of a male version. Yet everyone else keeps getting brand new fresh characters!? Like wtf!? Christie is an Eddy clone and Master raven is a raven clone, now we have white ass viktor being the phantom raven aka the master of it all. Guess we can’t have any cool characters with original African styles either. Laamb, DAMBE, Monthu, tahtib,Nuba,ngolo which predates capoeira,I could keep going but what’s the damn point
It does seem weird to have the only black female be a clone of an already established male character, then get replaced by him and Victor, I think the Tekken community in general is misogynistic in nature, it's no secret once you see polls with male and female characters competing, it's like its a "Boys vs Girls" poll with these people. lmao
To correct Adrianb714 Bryan only used a mini-gun in-game IF you customized him to do so. The mini-gun was never a part of his moveset in his default outfits then, and still isnt now. One thing is having guns and silly shit present as a customization option or as part of a cutscene. Having them present in a character's moveset by default is another thing entirely.
Thanks for letting me know that bro, I knew something was totally off with his comment. You can actually customize mini weapons in Tekken 7 also but that was just humor purposes like you said. A character having apart of their default arsenal movelist is un-called for.
Thanks bro, I really appreciate it. It means a lot to me. I’m glad you’re enjoying the content and I hope you will enjoy future content that’s coming💯💯
If 2D characters come in tekken I want Geese Howard. Dude was so damn hard to adjust to and use. I wasn't that good with him but damn did I like Geese.
Nah we don’t need. Want to play him? There’s the is awesome game called kof xv and he’s on there you should try it out but geese in tekken is just no Just no
It was quite obvious the Devs would bring back a Noctis type of character, what I don't get is the absence of Master Raven, but only to see Raven and her supposedly master, where is she, also there was no mention of her in any dialog, it's like they totally deleted the concept of her. What is going on with the team🤓
Appreciate the love here Demetrius. Know that the feeling is mutual and I sure do appreciate the respect for my favorite tekken character as well (Lidia) lol I also didn’t know a harada lied as well about fahkumram playing a role in t8 as well. I mean I don’t care about fahk but harada’s dishonesty is kinda concerning & disheartening. I think he’s just telling us what we wanna hear to appease us until the game releases. Regardless if it’s lies or not
The Terrible part about it is that it's a situation where he wins either way, the game will get release and all will be forgiven and there will be no other fighting game to run with Tekken 8. So he's despite the dishonesty which I feel is really messed up imo.
Ngl It felt weird seeing Harada on IGN Sweating like I've never seen that before even 2017 I've never seen Harada that nervous thank you for pointing that out
Hey! New sub here and I appreciate your honesty and sticking to your guns! To me I was interested in the two knife combo he has and I thought they would have made him like a grounded knife fighter and honestly I think the Katana and Teleport stuff was wayy to much honesty Also Tekken in my eyes has always been anime since Devil Jin was introduced so the phrase "Tekken has gotten too anime" doesn't mean anything to me. My complaint is that I thought taking was supposed to be a mixture of multiple different styles of martial arts, but it seems like we're tiptoeing around the same styles instead of trying to grab new ones. We had a pure Brazilian ju jitsu guy with submissions and stuff. Something to shake things up hell they can add a Tang Su do character or something. Love the video you got a sub from me.
Thank you bro, I really appreciate the sub it means a lot to me. As for Victor I really was going to give him the benefit of the doubt based off the CQC rumors but I was totally not expecting the full equipment weaponry. I really do like his Solidus style design but everything else just isn’t for me. I wish Tekken would expand their martial arts glossary as well but it looks like we’re going to have wait until DLC to see what they come up with.💯
@@DeeallthewayG I agree with you man I do kick boxing and mma and it honesty makes me sad that Tekken hasn't really diversified many styles into the game in the grand scheme I hope they add Eddy I already got Lars and Leo so I hope everyone gets their characters soon
@@jondeiconic2552 Thank you. You're a life saver. The first one you mentioned, I reported them on TH-cam last week for their annoying idiotic reply to my comment on one of the Tekken TH-camr's reaction video to Victor. The reply from the first one was from when I posted the same comment to every single Tekken TH-camr's reaction video to Victor, they said it's so annoying when I do that. The reply didn't bother me and I didn't care what they replied either
Victor not my cup of tea but as long as he don't have no throwing projectile like noctis, kuni, or akuma i'm cool with. This character was created for those people like that anime-esque stuff in tekken and they are eating up. Stomachs full. Already talking about dropping they mains. No character loyalty whatsoever
Your honest opinion who has the best chance being a guest character for Tekken 8? Who has a better chance of being a Kameo fighter in Mortal Kombat from Tekken 8 current roster.
Honestly I feel that Negan could come back because Harada is promoting him on his Twitter bio, so Negan is a distinct possibility. As for MK if anything it would be Kazuya because he’s really the only Tekken character to be a guest star on any other fighting game.
I agree 1000 percent. Projectiles of any kind don’t belong in tekken. Thats what made it so great is they used actual hand to hand combat styles in rl. The only character that gets a pass is Yoshimitsu
Nahh bruh trust me the MK community saying the same things about us. That Harada wouldn’t do the Tekken community like this or that, and vice versa it’s the exact same thing on that side. Oh yea btw they losing it over changing Johnny cage to Janet cage.
@@ryanrose3510 yeah, it’s been documented. People have gone back to MK11 to the point they reinstalled the game. They rushed MK1 like crazy, and the story was butchered by the multiverse idea. And people don’t like Liu kang bring control of everything 💯
Heh. It always feels awkward to see one of my comments in a video. 😅 Anyways, while I think Victor is cool (Metal Gear bias), I openly admit that he would've been way more of hit with all fans without the gun and sword. The teleportation shit is because of Raven Unit stuff so that's obviously gotta stay for thematic reasons. And the combat knife isn't bad imo. It's way more up close and personal than Yoshimitsu's sword, it's realistic and practical, and it makes narrative sense considering these dudes are at war.
Hey D, How was Krav Maga? Also, possible video idea. With your fighting background, which Tekken characters could you throw hands with irl? (If they weren't all super human)
How'd I know he was going to come for my comment 😂😂. I'm watching my niece and nephew and I know this vid is filled with cursing. I'll watch it later and and debate with you later
Nigga he or no one else dgaf if you were watching your niece and nephew. You shouldn’t be watching his videos around your young family members anyways.
Im convinced people who like that bullshit teleporting ninja shit are just anime fans. And not fighting game fans. Bamco is trying to cash in on that audience when those kids like flashy supepowers MORESO than fighting/martial arts itself…shits toxic
@@MOONMAN03 my thing is when does it stop? Just how much will tekken bend and fold towards that crowd in the future? I grew up watching martial arts films, mma, boxing. I love martial arts and tekken had just that recognizable styles and aesthetics. At this rate this future Tekkens will evolve into bullshido Naruto dbz fighting. Then proceed to die off just like fkn jump force.
Welp guess they are willing to alienate half the player base by not adding the most popular character that is eddy gordo. The man who is voicing viktor was actually only interested in eddy when he came out lol funny and ironic
