Mokujin is a full on punching bag, and somehow the "strongest" man's wake up whenever he sees someone that can defeat the planet and mans just wake up like. "Time to be a Dido and beat the shat out of someone."
Admittedly his ending was kind of funny in Tekken 5 imo but the longer it's gone on the more tired and played out it's gotten. And it's the same jokes every time.
Hard to watch this video with how dirty they did Law. At this point, I feel like a lot of fighting games have a fetish for making OG characters look like jobbers and losers.
And looking at the roster of KoF - Even Chang and Choi had much respect than these two given that these two were scored low on the fighters gen website
@@holdthetruthhostage Law was supposed to be cool. They make him really good in the games themselves, but they write him like this? It doesn't make sense.. Idk if I'd want the opposite, though. At least hes very good in competitive play.
This ending gives me chills man They BURIED MY GUY tbh im afraid they're going to Continue to bury Marshall law and forest Law and lei wulong aka bruce lee and jackie chan ARE THE foundation of why i was introduced to the reason why i like tekken is because of them Law needs a redemption story arch
Man. I think it’s a sin among, developers to make characters based on iconic faces (real or of older fictional) only to screw ‘em over with this type of treatment.
@@LIUKKAKE Trust me, I already know. Love the rest of the product outside of THAT arc. Same with Tekken. But yeah hideous to think these fans of classic icons pay the worst type of homage imaginable.
0:20 - 1:16 I relate to this so heavily, man. I was 3 y/o and the first fighting games I played were Tekken 3 & Ultimate MK3. Picked Forest Law and Liu Kang as my only mains for years! I can't even remember who I picked in Tekken Tag 1 as Forest's teammate. To this day, still a Law and Liu Kang main. And like you said, as messy as MK11's story was Liu Kang finally got justice again, but the Laws been getting done dirty for decades now. They gotta get their redemption soon.
I kinda liked his T4 ending, it showed that he belongs more in his dojo. That's what he's good at, that's what he's truly passionate for. It was both funny and badass, which is what Law always was.
Remember the Tekken 7 ending, such a Great tribute to Bruce Lee!! Literary shaking my head when they made him and Paul run a way from Feng Wei like a bunch of bitches.. Bruce Lee is rolling in his grave right now..
Law was my 1st character too and I've played purely for law. Nowadays I don't even play it because of how they betrayed my boi. You My friend have encapsulated all the reasons why I stop caring about his story. No one Has hit all the points as you did. I appreciate your work on One of the greatest characters that has ever fallen off. A true jobber
This is my first time catching an updated video! My guy I found your channel a couple months ago. I can say fa sho you got my respect, we could've been sparring partners back in the day lol we literally played the same games,hidden gems, attitude era etc keep posting you the TRUTH! Much love from Memphis TN
Those struggles are real but Betraying your friends for money? Being the punching bag clown for everyone around you?.. That relateable too? Wheres the redemption and growth? Law remains a money obsessed bum the entirety of the series. They could incorporate Laws hurdles as a Chinese American and the discrimination that comes with that. (Could have easily been given the reason for why his restaurant was snubbed in the franchise deal)
@codylontoc8065 that's actually more realistic than you think, with how i imagine the intensive training were, a month can actually make him go back to the top physical he had for all these years
@@Huskasin I don't think Tekken will ever deal with serious topics like that, maybe for the better because I don't think it could do the due dilligence on those subjects
My problem with Law is that the writers are trying to make him a underdog and comic relief, and yes there is a difference. two examples Kuwabara from Yu Yu Hakusho and Mr. Satan from DBZ, Kuwabara is a underdog character with comedic moments as seen through out the series, and Mr.Satan is a comic relief character with underdog moments as also seen. with Law they give him underdog storylines like where he becomes drunk from losing his business and dojo and he manage to pull himself together for one last chance thats real life stuff that you hear/know about out there, but because his also comedic in ends stupidly which hurts the character
Exactly, the fact that Law goes through hard times is actually realistic writing, and it should make his victories all the more rewarding... trouble is, those victories never come, lol. There were times it was done well though. Fighter's Den misrepresents his Tekken 4 ending - Marshall may lose the restaurant, but he picks himself up and turns it into a successful dojo. The fact that he earned enough money to rebuild his business is impressive itself. He turned a negative situation around by working hard and not giving up, that's an inspirational story if you ask me. After that, it's all downhill.
I'm sorry to report, in Law's ending, the story, and Law's personality they did him dirty. They just made him bitter and money hungry screaming that he hates rich people whenever he goes against someone who has significant wealth. It's fucking sad.
It's not just the hating rich people (mood) but screaming that while obsessed with getting rich himself that makes him extremely unlikable. He's a hypocrite and it's ALL there is to his personallity by this point in the franchise... It's indeed fucking sad
He got rich for a second there, and then back to being broke lmfao. I enjoy the long running joke at this point. It would almost be sacrilegious if he made any money
Its funny, both Paul and Law got shafted, but at least early Paul got creditablity having a decent feud with Kazuya, having a win streak against Kuma before they turned that feud into a joke and beating first form Orge.
Looking at how jacked up Marshall Law in Tekken 8 really is, he needs to be taken Seriously now, whoever is Writing his Story deserves to be Fired and needs to Hire a better Writer that puts Respect to Marshall's name and Bruce Lee's Legacy. Edit: Hell, I've seen Fan-Fictions that were better Written that made the Official Ones look Laughable.
The sad thing is that Marshall had potential to end things in a much better way. They could just let him have a fairly good career as a restaurant owner and a martial arts teacher after beating baek, and allow forrest to take his spot (kinda like king, but not tragic moment). Then maybe have him show up as a bonus character, or if story Mode, give him other reason, like going after someone who hurt forrest badly (and that person not be freaking Lili)
Marshall Law is low key one of my favorite characters. I do a variety of martial arts and I’m from San Francisco, just like Law, not to mention I’m really close with the family of Cung Le, who played Law in the live action film. So it’s really sad, disappointing, and disrespectful for Namco to portray Law the way he is
Even Forest got done dirty he was only in Tekken 3 and didn't even bring him back for the main games. Unless your name is Kazama or Mashima, you ain't getting a push in the Tekken Universe.
This is sad.... No. Not just sad, embarrassing. Absolutely embarrassing for a Bruce Lee fighting game character. Because of bad writing, bad booking, bad development. At least Martial Law is a great character to use in games but his character development as a Chinese business man sucks. Martial Law needs to be repackaged and I hope they do Martial Law Justice in TEKKEN 8.
Jeez, whoever wrote Law and Paul's stories must really had a knack for seeing them fail or just be cowardly comic reliefs which they aren't. They're fighters for crying out loud!
Bad writing for anyone who's not a Mishima is common for most characters, I'm a fan of Asuka, and all she is is Lili's sidekick, while being a fucking KAZAMA, her story is that Feng Wei attacked her dojo and she went after him for revenge and get her students back, and the only conclusion we ever get to see from that is in Tekken Tag 2 where she gets beaten up by Feng Wei who doesn't even aknowledge her presence IN HER OWN ENDING, I really don't get the logic of making the character looking bad in HIS OWN ENDING
My first Tekken game was Tekken 3 my favorite was law who I later know is forest law Marshall's son. I always be spamming the backflip move, Namco really need to use forest now have it like Marshall gives up and is down in life and forest tries to cheer him up, then have forest go into the tournament to get the money to help bring back Marshall's spirit despite Marshall prohibiting forest to enter the tournament.
1,000,000% agree with every word!!! There's no reason for it neither other than this weird fascination by the Japanese to diminish Bruce Lee's legacy, they did it in DragonBall and they're doing it in Tekken
I was rewatching your Paul video a few hours ago and I find out you uploaded this such an odd coincidence 😂 We need a video about your pitch for Paul and Law (as well as anyone else on the roster) in Tekken 8. You'd kill it.
Tekken writers: "In Tekken 2000, Martial Law is up against the Jinpachi Mishima to avenge his family that was slaughtered by Jinpachi's hands and the save the rest of the world. And don't you worry him...he failed at that, too."
I didn't remember that part and now it's just another reason for me to dislike Lili even more. Asuka who has tons of potential to be one of the central characters became irrelevant thanks to her
To be fair, I found Law's T4 and T5 endings funny, but the point still remains. Law.....oh dear.....oh dear......they did our boy DIRTY. Fei Long, Jann Lee, and Lui Kang are badasses. Awesome characters who gives Bruce Lee the justice he deserves, but Law? Good God almighty it is not a good showing. Law needs redemption in Tekken 8 badly because he's become an unintentional parody to Bruce Lee. I mean they can't screw Law's character any worse then they have and I swear to God if he jobs out to Lucky freaking Chloe so help me god......I hope that in Tekken 8 that we can salvage this man from the pits before he falls any further.
It's a darn shame Marshall Law is a joke in Tekken. This ain't a fitting tribute to Bruce Lee, it's a mockery of his legacy. Liu Kang obviously the strongest character in Mortal Kombat and Jann Lee won back to back DOA tournament and went down like a boss to Hayate, Hayabusa and Rig. Marshall Law apart from opening his dojo and restaurant done nothing. Ran like a coward alongside Paul when facing Feng Wei in his own ending. Embarrassing. Got no hope for Law in Tekken 8.
Oh nah, 13:05 I didn't know Lili gave forest law the Yamcha treatment 😭. What a cursed bloodline getting done so dirty. And Jin cries about his top tier bloodline 🤦♂️. Law is why I got into tekken too.
Ironically, I just had Chinese food for dinner right now.... still better than Law's. Yeah I don't get it either. Whoever is writing Law's stories needs to get a flip kick to the jaw. This man deserved better.
Haha. Similar story. Remember being at a holiday park with my family. Had 3 pounds per day to spend so had to spend wisely. Stumbled on tekken. Got washed twice. On my last quid, with Law, I finally got a win. Kazuya went for the tsunami kick, and I ducked and low punched before his leg came down. Quite thrilling for a button mashing 6 or 7 year old.
What they did to Lei Wulong is even worse. Also, over the years, the Chinese have always made the Japanese the bad guys in their movies, in movies like Fist of Fury, Fist of Legend, Fearless and all. So maybe they're just doing a sly payback with this Tekken story. With the Mishimas as the main and serious stories and the Chinese, Martial Law, forest Law and even Lei Wu long as unserious characters, but men they did Martial Law too dirty. Too much disrespect and they dissappeared Lei Wulong entirely. Law is ofcourse my favorite character alongside Lei Wulong. The Chinese should seriously get into the video game business and give us something really interesting. If you even look around now, aside 'Sifu', which other hand to hand beat em up martial arts game do we have nowadays, but we have tons and tons of Japanese themed games like Ghost of Tsushima, Sekiro, Rise of the Ronin and so on. All swordplay, no real martial arts kungfu. So the Chinese needs to do better. Really. They can make a game with Chinese theme that can rival Ghost of Tsushima. Look at Assassin's Creed for instance. They've traveled round the World, France, England, Egypt, you name it, all showcasing their culture and fighting styles, When they had to make an Assassin's creed china, it had to be a 2d dlc, and a mobile game. Why can't we have an assassin's creed China with Chinese theme and real hand to hand kung-fu chinese martial arts? Why? Just like Assassin's Creed Valhalla and the likes. Nobody will promote their legends and cultures like them and for them, if the gaming world doesn't regard them then they have to do it themselves. The last decent Chinese games we've had in decades are just Sleeping Dogs and Sifu. That's it. It's sad.
Picked Law for the same reason in Tekken 1, LP+LK, camera change, sound effect like a takeoff, dope. I started using Paul shortly after I saw my ass get rolled across the dirt with one punch...but I still switch back/forth between them. Just ignore their story though cuz...yeah.
i really think its a japanese,chinese thing. they probably have some deep rooted resentment for bruce lee. yes character in the game but only as a joke...
I had no idea he wasn’t the main character till I watched the movie. Mind you back then it was no UA-cam and I’m from a small town so Tekken 3 was out by the time I was able to see it
To be fair, his ending in 5 should be the best one. Hell, i would've had the same response to Paul, too. That bill belonged to Forrest, not Marshall. Lol
They did the reverse of what Pokémon did. Pokémon had Team Rocket around to cheer/laugh at for their misfortune, but Tekken chose to make two great characters to be laughed at for their misfortune.
Love how Marshall & Paul are still tight, despite the constant relationship issues they have with debt, and with the fact Forest got badly injured on Paul's bike (guess Marshall was like "ah it was my dumbass son's fault for messing, dw about it")
Here's the thing, I don't actually mind that Marshall's storyline mostly revolves around earning money and getting out of debt. It's a relatable angle and at least gives him a clear motivation for entering each tournament. I agree that they overplay it, especially since there were plenty of other angles to go with, like his rivalry with Baek. Why they abandoned that drama in favour of trash like Asuka vs Lili and Eddy vs Lucky Chloe is beyond me, lol. What I don't like is that his poverty is so often played for comedy. Poor people can be funny, but the reality of being poor is anything but. When I read Marshall's storyline, it's goddamn tragic. This man gets put through the wringer, but the games themselves play it off as a joke. Paul can happily live on bread n pullit, he hasn't got a home or family to worry about, whereas Marshall always has so much to lose. What would be interesting is if they had Marshall turn heel for a few games out of desperation and gave him a proper redemption arc where he could get some fat W's for once. Unfortunately Tekken 8 looks like it's gonna give us more of the same shit, even with this badass Hokuto no Ken redesign for Law. Wasteful. Failure is supposed to be the best teacher, but Marshall seems to have taken that way too literally lol, this man will never get the payoff for his years of hardship.
Never been a Tekken fan, so as someone who don't know much about the lore, i always thought he was a badass cause he is an OG and all. But damn, i feel bad for Law and his fans. Hope they do something cool with him in the next game, but it doesn't seems likely.
Den, can you make a playthrough of Urban Reign. I remember you had a vid back in the day but an updated full playthrough would be nice. Especially since it has both Law and Paul
You just earned a subscriber for this video bro 👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌🙌 ANY FIGHTING GAME IN LOOKING FOR THE GUY WHO LOOKS LIKE BRICE LEE.... YOU SPOKE FPR THE COMMUNITY WITH THAT
The same story happened to me about the characters the first time I played, but it was in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3; UMK3 got a lot of sickass characters design but Liu Kang was the most badass to me, the way he was inspired by Bruce Lee but at the same time got his own signature trace like his long hair and red bandana got me hooked and I use him as a main even to this day. Law was always one of my favorites in the Tekken franchise but Lei and Jin were always my top main
This is exactly why I don't like Tekken that much anymore. They always disrespect Bruce Lee. The writers at Namco Bandai do not respect Bruce Lee at all. NetherRealm Studios has done a far better job honestly.
Yeah, marshall law used to have a great backstory like hes draw fight with wang jenrei, and an avenged match on baek doo san. Honestly tho its almost disrespectful to shit on a characters that had a great start.
My first was tekken 1 and I play with him a lot. They keep trashing law in tekken 8, even with lili's ending. Its the same problem with paul, eddy's ending in tekken 7. Tekken only bennefits the mishima and kazama clan.
In Tekken8, almost everyone's ending is a joke. Even Kazuya's, Jin's and Jun's. And I hate it. Jun, Kuma, Lars and Reina endings are mostly dreams. Law dies and Paul loses because he is late - what kind of win is that? Tekken has mostly bad stories since Tekken 3. The games may be good, but without a proper ending, without a serious resolution to these characters, it's hard to take them seriously. I'm very disappointed, especially with how they treat Law and Paul. And when I aid that in another video ("Tekken 8 All Characters Ending (4K60FPS 2024)"), everyone wanted to crucify me.

I don't mind Paul and Law to have comedic moments but not be full fledged joke characters. Leave that for Roger and Mokujin.

This guy has been a joke since Tekken 5 and has not had any cool moments
They treat him like he treats his dishes. WASHED every time!
Admittedly his ending was kind of funny in Tekken 5 imo but the longer it's gone on the more tired and played out it's gotten. And it's the same jokes every time.
If you don't consider what happens afterwards, Law's Tekken 4 prologue is the greatest motivator ever. A Rocky story that gets you pumped.

Those struggles are real but
Betraying your friends for money? Being the punching bag clown for everyone around you?.. That relateable too?

Not his pitch.. but his patch lol. They both need alot of repairing, of their CREDIBILITY.
F in the Chat for Law Went from Upper Midcarder to Jobber

Tekken writers: "In Tekken 2000, Martial Law is up against the Jinpachi Mishima to avenge his family that was slaughtered by Jinpachi's hands and the save the rest of the world. And don't you worry him...he failed at that, too."
The burial tecnically started in 5
It started in 4 but 5 was definitely the nail in the coffin
Always great to see you upload. Now to binge watch
That accident Forest got in during Tekken 5 was him getting washed by Lili 💀.
I didn't remember that part and now it's just another reason for me to dislike Lili even more. Asuka who has tons of potential to be one of the central characters became irrelevant thanks to her
it's not mentioned that is forest law
forrest could save the family name if he ever returns to tekken
To be fair, I found Law's T4 and T5 endings funny, but the point still remains. Law.....oh dear.....oh dear......they did our boy DIRTY. Fei Long, Jann Lee, and Lui Kang are badasses. Awesome characters who gives Bruce Lee the justice he deserves, but Law? Good God almighty it is not a good showing. Law needs redemption in Tekken 8 badly because he's become an unintentional parody to Bruce Lee. I mean they can't screw Law's character any worse then they have and I swear to God if he jobs out to Lucky freaking Chloe so help me god......I hope that in Tekken 8 that we can salvage this man from the pits before he falls any further.
It's a darn shame Marshall Law is a joke in Tekken. This ain't a fitting tribute to Bruce Lee, it's a mockery of his legacy. Liu Kang obviously the strongest character in Mortal Kombat and Jann Lee won back to back DOA tournament and went down like a boss to Hayate, Hayabusa and Rig. Marshall Law apart from opening his dojo and restaurant done nothing. Ran like a coward alongside Paul when facing Feng Wei in his own ending. Embarrassing. Got no hope for Law in Tekken 8.
Oh nah, 13:05 I didn't know Lili gave forest law the Yamcha treatment 😭. What a cursed bloodline getting done so dirty. And Jin cries about his top tier bloodline 🤦♂️. Law is why I got into tekken too.
Outta all the characters to job to. Not an og? Maybe asuka because of her fighting style but her!? He must've got to careless.
I will do my best to win with Law at locals, to restore his name.
The Law, Paul, Feng ending was so lazy that all they did was re-use sound bytes from the game. Yes, I noticed it.
Ironically, I just had Chinese food for dinner right now.... still better than Law's.
Yeah I don't get it either. Whoever is writing Law's stories needs to get a flip kick to the jaw. This man deserved better.
Haha. Similar story. Remember being at a holiday park with my family. Had 3 pounds per day to spend so had to spend wisely. Stumbled on tekken. Got washed twice. On my last quid, with Law, I finally got a win. Kazuya went for the tsunami kick, and I ducked and low punched before his leg came down. Quite thrilling for a button mashing 6 or 7 year old.
Shout out to Nether Realms Studios and Tecmo Team Ninja for representing Bruce Lee at his finest. Team Dragon, Always!🐉
Tekken 8: …you may want to have a seat with what I have in store.
Big shock guys, they're still jokes in Tekken 8. They're both so badass to play, idk why Harada insists on making Paul and Law jokes.
What they did to Lei Wulong is even worse.
Also, over the years, the Chinese have always made the Japanese the bad guys in their movies, in movies like Fist of Fury, Fist of Legend, Fearless and all. So maybe they're just doing a sly payback with this Tekken story. With the Mishimas as the main and serious stories and the Chinese, Martial Law, forest Law and even Lei Wu long as unserious characters, but men they did Martial Law too dirty. Too much disrespect and they dissappeared Lei Wulong entirely. Law is ofcourse my favorite character alongside Lei Wulong.
The Chinese should seriously get into the video game business and give us something really interesting.
If you even look around now, aside 'Sifu', which other hand to hand beat em up martial arts game do we have nowadays, but we have tons and tons of Japanese themed games like Ghost of Tsushima, Sekiro, Rise of the Ronin and so on. All swordplay, no real martial arts kungfu.
So the Chinese needs to do better. Really. They can make a game with Chinese theme that can rival Ghost of Tsushima.
Look at Assassin's Creed for instance.
They've traveled round the World, France, England, Egypt, you name it, all showcasing their culture and fighting styles,
When they had to make an Assassin's creed china, it had to be a 2d dlc, and a mobile game. Why can't we have an assassin's creed China with Chinese theme and real hand to hand kung-fu chinese martial arts? Why? Just like Assassin's Creed Valhalla and the likes.
Nobody will promote their legends and cultures like them and for them, if the gaming world doesn't regard them then they have to do it themselves.
The last decent Chinese games we've had in decades are just Sleeping Dogs and Sifu. That's it.
It's sad.
At least there's Xiaoyu and Feng, although the latter is a bad guy ofc
Picked Law for the same reason in Tekken 1, LP+LK, camera change, sound effect like a takeoff, dope. I started using Paul shortly after I saw my ass get rolled across the dirt with one punch...but I still switch back/forth between them. Just ignore their story though cuz...yeah.
I’m amazed you didn’t post this sooner. But knowing you, it had to appear eventually.
i really think its a japanese,chinese thing. they probably have some deep rooted resentment for bruce lee. yes character in the game but only as a joke...
Because the Japanese characters are the main heros and the Chinese characters are jokes. I'm always said that for years.
Chuck Norris! I never even thought about it! But makes sense,every character is based off of someone.
Law went from washing dirty fighters to washing dirty dishes.
Pretty sure he always worked in a restaurant
Whoever is the writer for law needs to be fired
I had no idea he wasn’t the main character till I watched the movie. Mind you back then it was no UA-cam and I’m from a small town so Tekken 3 was out by the time I was able to see it
To be fair, his ending in 5 should be the best one. Hell, i would've had the same response to Paul, too. That bill belonged to Forrest, not Marshall. Lol
Law out here making Kano look successful. 😂
Lmfao
Sadly u ain't wrong.
They did the reverse of what Pokémon did. Pokémon had Team Rocket around to cheer/laugh at for their misfortune, but Tekken chose to make two great characters to be laughed at for their misfortune.
lili beating forest is crazy.
Love how Marshall & Paul are still tight, despite the constant relationship issues they have with debt, and with the fact Forest got badly injured on Paul's bike (guess Marshall was like "ah it was my dumbass son's fault for messing, dw about it")
Here's the thing, I don't actually mind that Marshall's storyline mostly revolves around earning money and getting out of debt. It's a relatable angle and at least gives him a clear motivation for entering each tournament. I agree that they overplay it, especially since there were plenty of other angles to go with, like his rivalry with Baek. Why they abandoned that drama in favour of trash like Asuka vs Lili and Eddy vs Lucky Chloe is beyond me, lol.
What I don't like is that his poverty is so often played for comedy. Poor people can be funny, but the reality of being poor is anything but. When I read Marshall's storyline, it's goddamn tragic. This man gets put through the wringer, but the games themselves play it off as a joke. Paul can happily live on bread n pullit, he hasn't got a home or family to worry about, whereas Marshall always has so much to lose. What would be interesting is if they had Marshall turn heel for a few games out of desperation and gave him a proper redemption arc where he could get some fat W's for once.
Unfortunately Tekken 8 looks like it's gonna give us more of the same shit, even with this badass Hokuto no Ken redesign for Law. Wasteful. Failure is supposed to be the best teacher, but Marshall seems to have taken that way too literally lol, this man will never get the payoff for his years of hardship.
The reason they do Law like this is because he'd be the favorite character, but they want Jin to be.
I love this guy's commentary!!! 💪🏾
Law has been the ultimate Head Cannon Character since atleast Tekken 4.
i remember this guy used to be my favourite now hes a joke
if you are not kazuya, heihachi or jin then your finished
🤞🏾law gets fixed in 8
Never been a Tekken fan, so as someone who don't know much about the lore, i always thought he was a badass cause he is an OG and all. But damn, i feel bad for Law and his fans. Hope they do something cool with him in the next game, but it doesn't seems likely.
Leis ending in tag 2 was cool though
I broke with the resident evil 2 song
1:24 maaaaaaaan this grab made me play this game as a kid. I definitely relate to
Den, can you make a playthrough of Urban Reign. I remember you had a vid back in the day but an updated full playthrough would be nice. Especially since it has both Law and Paul
It hasn’t gotten any better for him in Tekken 8.
Crying at the Resident Evil theme popping up. LMAO.
What's this music called? 9:50
The same 😢
You just earned a subscriber for this video bro 👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌🙌 ANY FIGHTING GAME IN LOOKING FOR THE GUY WHO LOOKS LIKE BRICE LEE.... YOU SPOKE FPR THE COMMUNITY WITH THAT
The music 🎶🤣
They out here washing the Law family. The father, the son, and the Holy Spirit lmao
9:50 It's kinda weird to hear some resident evil music from RPD during the Tekken discussion of Law 🤣🤣🤣
Its a great OST
Tekkén 8 isn’t any better, they’re just dragging this man down.
FGC needs to see this. Needs to see your videos. This needs more views. Help spread this particular vid
Bruh. I literally lol'd at 09:52. I felt The One Narrator's pain and frustration, with brother Law's consistently bad endings.
My introduction to Tekken was the exact same as yours, down to finding that grab move only to spam it as though it was the only move that exists 😂
The same story happened to me about the characters the first time I played, but it was in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3; UMK3 got a lot of sickass characters design but Liu Kang was the most badass to me, the way he was inspired by Bruce Lee but at the same time got his own signature trace like his long hair and red bandana got me hooked and I use him as a main even to this day. Law was always one of my favorites in the Tekken franchise but Lei and Jin were always my top main
I hate how they did his characters story in Tekken.
@9:52
Resident evil 2 police station music
It's a shame what they did to Paul and law... They both had cool stories
This is exactly why I don't like Tekken that much anymore. They always disrespect Bruce Lee. The writers at Namco Bandai do not respect Bruce Lee at all. NetherRealm Studios has done a far better job honestly.
Yeah, marshall law used to have a great backstory like hes draw fight with wang jenrei, and an avenged match on baek doo san. Honestly tho its almost disrespectful to shit on a characters that had a great start.
My first was tekken 1 and I play with him a lot.
They keep trashing law in tekken 8, even with lili's ending.
Its the same problem with paul, eddy's ending in tekken 7.
Tekken only bennefits the mishima and kazama clan.
In Tekken8, almost everyone's ending is a joke. Even Kazuya's, Jin's and Jun's. And I hate it.
Jun, Kuma, Lars and Reina endings are mostly dreams. Law dies and Paul loses because he is late - what kind of win is that?
Tekken has mostly bad stories since Tekken 3. The games may be good, but without a proper ending, without a serious resolution to these characters, it's hard to take them seriously. I'm very disappointed, especially with how they treat Law and Paul. And when I aid that in another video ("Tekken 8 All Characters Ending (4K60FPS 2024)"), everyone wanted to crucify me.
