TEKKEN 8 is an 8, but we need new characters, team battle, and a better customization

[☢SAITAMA☢]

1-There aren't characters who use Capoeira and Muay Thai for the moment, one that will be added is Eddie, but will there be a new character who uses Muay Thai like Bruce?

2-Where is the team battle?

3-The customizzation is poor, in fighting games is really important for me


My review about Tekken 8:
Genre: (9) As a fighting video game there are all the possible features, the only thing missing is the team match, why did they remove it?

Story: (3) What a disappointment, the story of the previous Tekken was based on the organization of the Ironfist tournament, and on the Mishima family issues, now after Heihachi's death, the plot has moved on to Kazuya who wants to dominate the world, and how does he want to do it? With an army of soldiers who fight with their fists. Ok that he acquires demonic power, but the rest is ridiculous; Ridiculous to say the least also how some characters were presented, for example Azucena, she appears in the middle of the war in ethnic clothes and not in combat gear, once met she challenges you to a duel, tells you that she has allied herself with G-Corp, and once defeated he goes away laughing, well, are you serious?

Originality: (8) I'll start from 5 because it's a series, but I add 3 points because they added the Arcade Quest mode, slow motion and spectacular shots during fights, and the Heat and Rage systems.

Scenarios: (9) There are all kinds of scenarios, the only thing missing is an arctic location.

Graphics: (7.5) We are not yet at levels that border on reality, nor at the levels of the titles with the best graphics, but it is certainly the fighting game with the best graphics up to its year of release.

Sounds: (9) They included the menu music of all Tekken, but the combat effects are also very nice, if it was possible to use your own music in the background, it would have been a 10.

Playability: (10) Not only is it playable on PC and console and with various peripherals, it is possible to change the configuration of the buttons, the systems are simple to understand, and for the first time I see a videogame that also explains the techniques to become a pro gamer.

Longevity: (10) The story is long enough, and in addition they added the Arcade Quest mode which I think is very cute, it encourages you to join the Tekken community, and to use video games also as a tool for socializing, something that some had missed years.

Requirements: (9) Probably not the lightest videogame, but I can also play it with the secondary PC which is a mini ITX with a GTX1650 - I5-6400 - 8GB of RAM, with the main PC using the world's best-selling GPU RTX3060 - an I7-6700 - 16GB of RAM I can play with all the details at ultra, without going below 60fps, i have to use old CPU for some softwares for W7, but i play on W10 using dual boot.

Technical errors: (8) I start from 10 and deduct one point for each error.Apart from some small bugs with the audio being late or early compared to the video, I have to take away another point for the fact that the characters in the story speak to each other in their own language and strangely understand each other anyway, I don't know if Namco he did it on purpose but it doesn't make sense anyway, at least when they talk to each other they have to speak the same language.

Overall: 8.2

Pay for it.

That is what Namco is recklessly gambing their goodwill from the community on. That anything players want they will have to buy.

Don't hold your breath.

They still have done nothing to combat plugging, many of the banned players are back playing already and balance has not been touched.

Would be great if we had basic game modes like we had decades ago and even better were able to play them online but ... shop is the priority.

Where is infinite rematching atleast in quick match.

There is team combat in SF6, but it is not particularly in demand. Therefore, he is unlikely to appear in T8. there is not much demand.

Customization in SF6 is even worse than in T8, but this does not prevent it from being popular and selling well. Customization is not important.

The story in Tekken has always sucked. In this regard, nothing has changed.

before new characters
Customization and team battle.... we need proper balancing and tweaking properties xD

I really wish team battle comes back, it was so fun in tekken tag 1 and 2!

[不会玩～]

I wish has a system that team battle each different set is control by different player. for example, like KOF have 3 character but the 3 character individually control by different online player. It makes the game multiplayer and not lose for your own skill.

Team battle always was my favopurite offline mode.

I can't understand why they never ported this mode online for using it against a friend/whoever in a private room. That difficult really?, it is still a 1on1 mode, but each using 8 characters, so it should be kind of the same as standard 1on1.
