That’s why I admire ShinZ(신의욱). I played so much VF4 because I was moved by his determination as the only one who kept enjoying Virtua Fighter after Korea moved on to Tekken. Its likely because they weren't there to see it for themselves. 😇

@GhostFrom3S The key word is "strategy" VF may look more grounded and realistic but in the real world there are no mixups or RPS systems in actual combat. If you can defend perfectly you win and there's no guesses it's all speed, timing, positioning, physical ability, movement and reaction

I completely understand not wanting to to play VF over Tekken.
It's just funny referring to Tekken's gameplay as "Real World Combat Strategy" when VF's entire design philosophy is literally that😂
I think the reasons this person is giving sounds... contradicting?

Tekken is (traditionally) the only mainstream fighting game that doesn't play into an arbitrary triangle system, and much more closely resembles real world combat strategy. Like, actual strategy that's been studied for millennia, not the vibes-based video game kind
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames Go scroll down the content of his channel, even his profile and banner is screams he's an MK player
I'm done here, Tekken ppl barely plays other fighting games. Tekken players would rather play Call of duty or fortnite than exploring new fighting games outside their comfort.

Best explanation of the "Tekken players only play Tekken" phenomenon

@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames lmao Nah, I just did double checked it, make your own research buddy.

@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames I bet ya'll more players from 2D community will try and stay playing VF6 once it comes out than the Tekken community who likes to parade they play a fighting game that has side step.
English
@Bleemooonbin @nillstan @PhiDXGames They play other games tho or am i wrong? + phidx plays sf6 and 2xko for real are we ignoring that?
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames I said name a tekken streamer or if I'm gonna be specific a tekken main who "daily" stream multiple fighting games, none of these streamers even can qualify in the likes of Sajam.
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames Did you even read one of my replies, I said I did scroll their twitch page and can't find a single stream that's not T8, there's one random game and it's not a fighting game, now go scroll down BrianFs vods, you can even see em watching 2xko competitive scene.
English
@Bleemooonbin @nillstan @PhiDXGames Fightinggm plays cotw and also mortal kombat on stream but you wouldn’t know because you would have to look at the streams of the creators I mentioned.
English
it's crazy how dolphin might just be the best emulator ever
English
@GhostFrom3S FGC people who played more fighting games prefered VF more than Tekken, but these Tekken players that barely even had an hour on a game that's not Tekken thinks their opinion about fighting games as a whole is more acceptible.
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames You're the one who can't read, I never mentioned that MK is tekken like, so why do you need to tell me that MK is not tekken-like? I didn't even told you that Tekken players should play MK, I only said SF players can play a non SF-like game like MK when their game is shit.
English
@Bleemooonbin @nillstan @PhiDXGames Is this ragebait or you actually can’t read? I said that we play other games and that SF and MK are included in that. We play other fighting games and they are fun. They just aren’t part of the subject of discussion. TEKKEN-like games are. I feel like a bot repeating myself.
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames I heard that Ninjakilla is originally from MK, I scroll through that fightinggm twitch channel and couldn't find a stream him playing a different fighting game, so ge tried SF6 at release and that's the best you got for a teken streamer who daily plays multiple games?
English
@Bleemooonbin @nillstan @PhiDXGames TMM, fightinggm, phidx, brawlpro, ninjakilla are the few that i know that does it sometimes. But it’s funny bc I could ask you the same question about SF and MK and you wouldn’t find many. Also besides sajam with sf6 the streamers you mentioned caters to the fgc as a whole.
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames They're not like BrianF, Broski, Idom, who would stayed for months exploring new games like COTW, 2XKO, that new avatar fighting game by their own choice, Diaphone is from Anime fighters, I ain't just focusing to SF players.
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames Name a tekken streamer who daily stream multiple fighting games like Sajam, Max, Jwong or Diaphone.
English
@Bleemooonbin @nillstan @PhiDXGames A lot of tekken players play other fighters but they also want something that can give them same feeling as playing tekken since tekken 8 is ass right now.
English
@tiger_trash My analogy wasn't just for him, you guys taking these game suggestion as if people are forcing yall to like these games when they only giving yall something to play when people be quitting T8. I know he played SF6, 2XKO, VF5, but most of these is for sponsored and collab streams.
English
@Bleemooonbin That's not even what happened though, lol. He has already played other fighting games. You can go watch him.
He keeps coming back to Tekken, because the base design of Tekken is what speaks to him. You gotta generally trust that seasoned players know what they are looking for.
English
@ReezyBH @nillstan @PhiDXGames Didn't say MK and SF are tekken like, I'm talking about SF fans playing MKX and T7 when SFV was unplayable. What's so hard for Tekken fans to pick up another fighting games that's not Tekken?
English
@Bleemooonbin @nillstan @PhiDXGames Again i said tekken-like games. Street fighter and mortal kombat are not tekken-like. When i say we play other games i include those two in there too. But they are not the games we are talking about. We want another game that feels similar to how tekken is played. Thats it.
English
@Zen_Nobody101 @kitsuneredFES Once VF6 is release, I expected more Capcom fans, streamer and pro players playing it more than the so called "muh Tekken have sidestep" players
English
@kitsuneredFES At least they have more to play and fall back on if their game is in shambles. MVC gets re-released, street fighters get in collections. Tekken is forever in purgatory, my son would be in HELL, I wouldn't want that for 'em.
English
@Zen_Nobody101 @kitsuneredFES That's true, but a lot of SF players gone to playing button block game like MKX and a 3D game like T7 when SFV is in shambles at it's release. Tekken community only had the mentality that they can't like anything that isn't Tekken.
