I've been a massive Tekken fan since I was a kid. Following and being fascinated by the Lore of the Mishima family! I always saw the potential for a big budget cinematic movie. So glad they listened to the fans and we got it with Tekken 8. That final fight between Kazuya and Jin was one of the coldest fights I've ever witnessed! The atmosphere. The Music the emotion. I love it because despite how Evil he is I feel where Kazuya is coming from. I feel it deep with my soul. He was one of the first Villains I think I ever identified with as a kid besides Vegeta from Dragon Ball because he's so complex and damaged! I love his rawness too. Man, I love Tekken. So happy the series is back again! Great video man!
Man, people nowadays don't appreciate a good game that was casual friendly. Everything needs to be sweaty and for basement dwellers only. I love this take because it doesn't forget that fighting games are aimed for entertainment, it was meant to be enjoyed.
I'm so happy that Tekken exists, especially 8. It's TOO good, it's unreal how mind-numbingly fun and exciting this game is. Adrenaline bursting out of every orifice, of course it helps that they designed King to be an Aztec god in this one too. Every single thing on screen is a visual pleasure to just stare at and admire. I'm happy for its success, the team earned it. I hope to God it never stops, I live and breathe Tekken. The music too, whenever I get into character select and hear that OH OH OH, I start losing it. Pure, undeniable, undisputed perfection.
Tekken 8 for sure has evolved and grown up with us through the years. As we got better and evolved, so has Tekken! Aged like fine wine, can't say the same about myself, lol!🤣 Although... they nerfed my main Asuka😭
I've been with Tekken since the first one. Kind of, more the second because they just got the latest arcade machine and I wasn't allowed to play yet, so I started with 1 lol But anyway, yeah. I like T8 a lot honestly. Game's pretty hype.
Nightmare for this 90s kid that’s been in tekken fold since 2. Bryan main since 3… ATP I only have the game because my bro climbing that mountain and I’m the best training dummy you can ask for. like NBA2K, the prowess & sticksmanship is being replaced with accessibility/animations. Which no longer makes a fighting game, but more A Movie-In-Motion… Being able to take 75%Health with 2, 1 button attacks *timed right* , EVERY ROUND… *IS ASURAS WRATH* This the first fighting game I played that made it hard to respect my opponent. Because they have SO MUCH to hide behind. And to me, breeds a false sense of reality/confidence/skill. But “Satan revealing himself” IS the story of the game so maybe it’s intended to breed such energies. Ironic how it’s a casual game, but in the tekken community you unheard unless you top ranked…that’s how lame shh done got. Makes me wanna make my own fighting game for real.
It’s not for me, I do not like the style of Tekken since t7. I love Tekken just like you said my first ps1 game was Tekken 3 but I played the first and second in the arcades. Theres just something weird about games made today that I don’t like.
@@scarvello we gotta find out what that something is that's so weird. Is it today's fighting game trends, your fav character changed too much, your attitude towards games period??? etc. (Idk if I used etcetera right 🤷🏾♂️)
@ yeah I know what it is it’s that they design t7 and t8 to be more focused for the FGC which brought the mechanics that we know today. The game just feels almost too accessible now like characters don’t need to be taken to the lab (practice modes) anymore.
For long time fans tekken 8 story was trash but better then any other fighting game story which isnt saying much. I grew up with the game so i guess i was hoping for them to double down on the crazy tekke aspect and leave the comeback mechanics and easy ish i soul cal but instead they killed soul cal o purpose to make tekken 8 better and tekken 7 so i hate this game but its still a really solid game
@@justevolve lol, I've been having epic anime saga fights on this game all year. Even after the blowout losses, I've came back later and been able to go toe to toe. What's your fav Tekken game then??
@@justevolve ohh you like that pure uncut gameplay that T5 had? There is a piece of me that misses those times before the gimmicks came into all the big fighting game franchises.

@@GoNukem123 lol maybe Asuka's going to get some angel powers later like Jin, and then you'll get that buff back 😭😭😭

@@tigerjaxkson what you rating Tekken 8 out of 10 bro?
I think I’ll give tekken 8 a chance but 7 will always be my favorite. Bob/Slim Bob is the homie.
@@ErnieStrother-m4y I understand if your favorite character isn't getting any love
I hope they release a arcade cabinet for the completionist... full form.

I'm thinking it was focus all aspects and budget into the most popular of the 2 (Soul Cal) or drop to games with partial effort 🤷🏾♂️
Tekken 8 story was so good but the actual gameplay is ass

@durag_rico my fave tekken is between tekken 5 dr tekken 6 and tekken 7

@durag_rico yhhh I mean even tho t7 had supers and stuff it wasnt this bad as tekken 8 imo
