DoA was all about it. It also included Ryu Hayabusa, but I'd rather play Ninja Gaiden II on the 360 (or an emulator) instead. Who cares about Dead or Alive at this point.
DoA is a product of the 2000s as with most things these days
 
i'm still mad. i had to relearn king, say fuck that and learn kuma, and SITLL armor king is going to be DLC for 7.99. i dont even play ranked. im in it to deliver the fade to the boys. i dont want to deal with some retard hitting square in his HELP ME MOMMY I NEED HELP mode
oh my apologies i meant mashing buttons without the assistant button.

i am patiently waiting for harada to drop the dlc so leet haxxors may find a way to remove the lock.png for us
 
After several hours of torture that is ranked and labbing shit, I finally see improvement. Also I've seen a Dragujew in the wild and got my first plugger. It's the little things that makes the game fun in the end. :story:

PSA: If the Tekken Shop is Live Service faggotry, and you give Harada your shekels for old costumes or customization pieces you're a cuck and probably a consoomer faggot. You also have no right to whine about the state of video games if you buy anything from the Tekken shop with real money (I mean, you're already a cuck and a consoomer faggot by buying the Season Passes and getting disc-locked characters like Eddy, AK, and Roger).

Maybe I'm wrong about the Tekken Shop, but this is Bamco we're talking about. I expect slimy monetization and live service faggotry from Harada, and I expect the fgc to defend him again.
I had a conversation with a friend of mine today who is a fellow Tekken fan (I don't really consider myself one anymore but whatever) and he asked why they don't just release remastered versions of classics like Tekken 3, Tag 1 and 5DR with online play, it'll sell like hotcakes. We came to the conclusion that the reason is twofold: 1) It'll reveal how fucking shitty the new games are and 2) it'll reveal how fucking kikish they are with how much you get nickel and dimed for customization that's slightly better than 5DR's.

It's only slightly better because the editing options were upgraded for most of the cast. You can't do shit with Kuma and Panda (Why can't you change their fur in most of their outfits let alone Kuma's gi colors?!). 5DR and 6BR will always have the best customization in the series.

The entire cash shop is predatory from the costumes that don't even look good to the pricing. Sure, the skins and avatar/customization shit in the Cash Shop are "cheaper" than Blackrock Fighter 6 and MK1's trash (not by much), but despite the poorly-made $4 costumes, look how much it costs just to get the minimum currency for the your Tekken waifu or husbando's costume: 5 dollars. You're not getting a deal. You're giving Harada and Mike Murray more money for lambos and tranny hookers with that remaining dollar. Nope, you can't earn cash shop currency without your wallet, and you can't do shit with that other currency unless you want some dumb aura or avatar customization for a mode you never touched again after beating it once. What's also insulting is how lazy Harada was with designing these coins because they look like he ripped them off from Fortnite. FFS Harada, at least make the currency look like the old Namco arcade tokens with Pacman dressed up as a random Tekken character. Wait until Harada and Bamco throw in Battle/Season Passes into this shit show. The Cash Shop adds more costumes and shit every 1-2 months, and we're going to get more disc-locked characters every year until Harada is bored of Tekken 8. Come March's shop update, the live service monetization and disc-locked content altogether will almost be half or a quarter of what you paid for the fucking game alone (this is also counting fireworks and the avatar shit).

Jesus, just look at that middle rank hell.

That's a HUGE wall to get over. If that was me i'd be like...

bro you can literally mash your buttons until red ranks, because you wont loose points until yellow ranks begin, the game and the online ranks have been retardified.
 
They did Zafina dirty this time, though Jun’ll probably be fine when/if her damage is normalized. Drag is the real problem child now.
literally every character was made more easier to play, i just can legit spam some shit and it either works or doesn't, even without looking at the movelist. i never was able play 90% of the roster in the previous tekkens.

Allow me to clarify. Drag is a problem child because the instant running moves being piss easy this time, having a far better low game, and having extremely high damage right now.

This seems to be the norm with every fighting game that has come out within the last five years or so. KOF, SF, MK, GG, all of these companies are so desperate for players they're willing to kill one of the main reasons to even bother with the genre. Investing some time to understand and master the game. Execution is so irrelevant now.

Not sure if anyone knew this or not, but the producer of DOA6 also handled Tekken 8

Ah well now I got a name to blame in the fuckery that was DOA 5 and 6. And a face to the pedo bait of the bikini spinoff game that somehow continues to get updated and supported.

I had a conversation with a friend of mine today who is a fellow Tekken fan (I don't really consider myself one anymore but whatever) and he asked why they don't just release remastered versions of classics like Tekken 3, Tag 1 and 5DR with online play, it'll sell like hotcakes.

I agree with you but I would also like to add that in Tekken 3s case, it may also relate to the guest character, Gon. I am not too sure about this one but I do recall hearing some copyright fuckery regarding him.

it was a one time only contract, so not sure what makes it so impossible despite loicensing costs.
 
Greed? I mean, it is Bandai Namco after all.
  • According to Katsuhiro Harada, Gon will not appear in any future Tekken games because of licensing issues. Harada responded on his Twitter, "Gon is not our Rights. That was one-time license. Plz don't ask about that", meaning Namco does not own the rights of the character and Tekken 3would be the only time where he would be a guest character.
    • However, as Namco Bandai published the most recent Gon game the same year that Tekken Tag Tournament 2 was released on consoles, either the earlier contract was unusually restrictive toward the character's future use, or Harada does not think it is worth the effort.
