Based on this thread and the responses I've seen, it seems some Tekken players need to play another FG because the amount of opinions about things that are "exclusive" to Tekken is just not true. Also, that real-world fight analogy is just completely WRONG. Tekken ego is crazy.
Alcratz@alcratz

Something a bit obnoxious about the sudden conversation around VF and DOA having movement is that peeps have overlooked the actual difference between these games and Tekken, which is that the appeal of VF and DOA is how they're tightly designed around their triangle systems

@DuelistRos4036 @LocalBtnMasher Well it can be taken as a shady statement because they are basically implying other games like VF are simple and/or 1 dimensional where as Tekken is this super deep FG experience with interactions and concepts that are only present in Tekken. The thing is that is just not true.

@LocalBtnMasher Why do vf fans get so upset when people say tekken is different? Nobody is even insulting your game man

The funniest thing about this thread isnt the fact that Tekken is just as "arbitrary" in its mechanics as every other game But implying that real life fighting can be boiled down to. "Who hits first wins" lmao
Alcratz@alcratz

In the real world, the one that wins an interaction is the one that swung first. Simple as The lack of the RPS is why high level Tekken (traditionally) sets itself apart, relying entirely on and emphasizing principles of strategy, more than any mixups or strike/throw game

@YoshitsuneCr @alcratz LMAO. I think some are so deep in their own egos as if Tekken isn't one of the most mainstream fighting games. It's literally big 3 in terms of most popular. They treat it like they are doing rocket science that not everyone can grasp when it's quite an approachable game.

@alcratz After reading the replies for this post, i think the current Tekken community actually deserves T8...

PhiDX@PhiDXGames

I cannot Korean Backdash in VF or DOA. The gameplay that I find unappealing in T8 is not fixed by playing VF. For the movement and spacing game I want to play, the next best alternative was probably SSBM. @alcratz's R.U.S.H. has taken that spot now. The 1 hour I played was the most fun I've had in FGs in forever.

@rafaelcout97595 @DenjinDuke @Sttarkson I mean in MK you can duck throws and highs but only if you release guard. And you can argue those throws are reactable based on their startup animations. So extra layers to the basic system are literally prevalent in every FG sub genre. Tekken isn't doing anything new.

@rafaelcout97595 @DenjinDuke @Sttarkson Armor moves are in every fighting game and that beats incoming strikes. Heck SF6 has a 3 hit armor move with Drive Impact which is really just a rehashed red focus from SF4. The concept of having more options than just the basic Strike - Throws - Guard triangle is in every FG.

@thornzd @DenjinDuke @dkyu3238 @Sttarkson Idk about that one. I see BB players break throws on reaction. But that doesn't mean throws aren't a guard break since they are unblockable. I think many Tekken players need to play more FGs because these takes I see just seem to come from lack of experience with other games.

@DenjinDuke @dkyu3238 @Sttarkson strikes do not beat throws on a system level, throws do not beat block because throw breaking is on reaction, and you are ignoring the sidestep/duck/movement systems

@Abstriktion I never got this statement either. Tekken has generally been easier for basic execution for me than other fighting games and I've never seen Tekken players that seem like they are overall better than other FG players because they compete in the "hardest" FG.

@fortayee I be pretty confused when people say tekken is the hardest fighting game cause like, if you adjust your fundamentals a bit, you usually have a better time playing tekken than you do sf lol

At this point can someone just straight up ask the developers in an official interview why they keep throw loops in this game 3 years in I know there is speculations as to why they don't do anything about ig, but someone should force an official answer out of them man 🫠

@DDWarBucks @PhiDXGames I mean, that's in all 3d fighters. It many times feels more frequent in SC than in Tekken. Also, MK has something similar with their duck punishes since it just be done without holding guard.

@JuJu_Da_Gamer @Maleelz Yeah I don't get that either. Do these players participate in real world combat to draw this conclusion? Because that sounds like quite a presumptuous statement.

@Maleelz Yeah cuz I’m still waiting to know what that means along with “first one to swing wins the interaction” which isn’t true if we talking real world combat strategy/sports like ufc and boxing.

@aso9nglobob @Maleelz @PhiDXGames That same concept is actually very present in anime fighters. They usually boast really strong oki and oppressive setups that are about not letting your opponent attack you. Honestly MvC and KoF have this exact same philosophy.

@Maleelz @PhiDXGames Do real martial arts revolve around playing elaborate rps with your opponents or are they trying to control the fight to not allow your opponent strike you in the first place

@RageOfLeo @GalaxySoldier That was my exact thoughts. Between the energy sword and his cloaking ability he could have some Chipp-like design with maybe some alpha/gamma blade-like moves and more ninja like movement. They can even take Strive Chipp's wall run combos. Gwen could use Chipp's web tight rope.

@fwdorxon2 @TidyWire That's quite literally every game and really that transcends past games to literally everything in life you can possibly do. However good you think you are at something you are likely to find someone who is more than twice as good. Does that mean you should never do anything? No!

@STEFisDOPE @Son_ImSleep One said what about LeBron? She really tried to use him in order to advocate for single motherhood. The issue is that people are still willing to engage with them when it's clear they are idiots that would walk into the belly of the beast because this beast might be "different."

@TheIshikawaRin No way they are selling UI skins after making the laziest UI they could think of. This is INSANE! Strives UI being so bland actually seems like it took effort to make because you have to intentionally ignore the design of the games before it to ever associate this with GG.
