Is this the most toxic modern fighting game?

[crowback]

I've definitely reached my mental limit after 100 hours but this game just ain't it. Something about how its designed is pure toxicity to my brain. like 50% of my matches feel like its against regular people both good and bad and its super fun and the other 50% feel like I'm playing against literal hair loss inducing cancer and it no longer feels enjoyable. I understand what some of the long standers in this community say when they tell you to not play Tekken it will make you lose your hair if you play it or cause you to go insane.

No other fighting game that I've personally played has such a disgusting level of toxic game design or abusable cancer. The guessing game grab system(they tell you to lab for 1000 hours for this), the heat system, the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ retarded tracking and lunging on half the combo starters and launchers which leads to mash friendly gameplay, the heat bursts randomly being lows on some characters etc... I could go on and on so much of it feels like bloated design. Everyone seems to be playing off some lab sheet pasted to the wall behind their monitors and it doesn't feel like a naturally flowing fighting game it feels more like I'm fighting pre-programmed/packaged individuals. I've never seen so many players just do the same stuff on the same characters especially in a game with such an insane amount of moves and combo's.

I'm pretty sure once they fix the plugging problem 80 to 90+% of the casual player base is just gonna stop playing over 2 months just to save their sanity and lets be honest if you don't know why people are plugging and your playing ♥♥♥♥ like Dragunov, Jun, Victor etc.. you're being willfully ignorant there is a reason people plug and its not just losing a match. Either way this definitely feels like the least casual friendly fighting game I've personally played in the past 6 or 7 years not sure whether everyone is just following the same youtube guides, abusing broken characters, general game imbalance or everyone is just pure legacy players but to all fellow players that feel the same way just uninstall its not worth losing your marbles over one fighting game.

MK is the most toxic.

T7 had a somewhat active playerbase after 6 years, 8 years even if you are from SEA.

The community shrinking down to a healthy size is not a bad thing, i am actually looking forward to it now that i cooled my head from that colossal ♥♥♥♥ up yesterday.

I'm so salty about my losses this morning, no more secondaries until I feel strong again

You under estimated this new batch of players

It's almost like there's something else at work in MK's decline than just the game itself

This game rewards you for being aggressive. If you play defensively, you are at a disadvantage.

You MUST have a good knowledge of frame data and punishment moves in order to succeed. This game is all about muscle memory and punishing.

You gotta no life to enjoy this game. Is it worth it? Probably not.

I think Tekken scene has inherited a lot MK refugees

The more you play this game the more you hate it

I think you might need to step back and think about why you're even playing fighting games. Half of this post is complaining about "mash-friendly" gameplay, heat and such, but then the other half is you calling it the least casual-friendly fighting game.

Maybe you should go back to Guilty Gear Strive...?

Dunno, haven't played much online. For those I faced, of way higher ranks than me, they act the same - like almost every high ranked player I ever faced in every fighting game.

without love, it cannot be seen
the more I play Tekken, the more I love Tekken

T7 was by far more toxic. It seems people chilled out (so far) in T8. On Launch T7 was a toxic pit. But also literally it was a different generation of players

[Awaken]

Skill-heavy multiplayer will always be toxic as some people will always think they are born superior and when showed their place will always rage instead of treating it as a learning experience.

He's kinda right tho. You have to put tons of hours into this game just to purely enjoy it. It's fine for casuals and noobs to say this stuff because it's true. Instead of doing something productive, you sit on tekken for hundreds or even thousands of hours doing the same thing over and over again.
