Does Eddie Gordo even come with a character episode?
Does Eddie come with thoughtfulness like a character episode that the base ones have or is he just lazily shoe horned into the character mode? not even the baseline character treatment for our money?

It's so lackluster they want to sell us these characters back into tekken like it's some big selling point for the extra cash but cbf even given them the baseline character treatment.

He's a guy who has a sister, and they always loved to dance, and then they tried to get mugged, and Eddie and his sister danced the muggers to death.
I mean, a fighter using capoeira shouldn't have a serious origin story because no one would believe it.

Producer Katsuhiro Harada explained on Twitter that the story mode will be added for the additional characters sometime in the summer, showing how the characters were involved with the game's main story. The stories will be explored in free expansions for the main story rather than individual character episodes.

So AKA we are going on with the story as usual for what you paid for (Deluxe, Ultimate), but not having character episodes or base for the new characters you also paid for baseline character treatment

This is something I've written about many times, even if the content is free, people will still be dissatisfied. Everything has to be paid for, and that's bad. If there is something that will be available to everyone and you don't have to pay for it, that's bad too.

That's correct because in essence it was not free, but rather paid upfront.

The more you give people the more they want. The irony is that if everything. that is being sold now was free from the beginning, and the store sold one suit, people would be just as sure to complain endlessly.
It has always and absolutely been in all games. You can make content for a year for free, but the moment you ask to pay five dollars, the punishment of heaven from angry players is coming.
Players are just as greedy as the gaming companies. They are literally two sides of the same coin.

That's why instead understanding it's not a gift/giving process but rather a product of trade,

Make a bad product/service and people wont come back, now that i know the introduced characters wont even have baseline character content i wont be buying a pass from them again.

And in return if they wanted to make a new story / continuation story they can easily make money by selling a proper expansion.

But lets be real we all know they are cutting corners because they are crying over the fact they ''only'' sold +2million despite such highest of praise that will no doubt have more people buy the next iterations through positive renown publicity & word of mouth.

I know, right. Capcom may suck but they do much better when it comes to their character DLC.

Each DLC fighter gets an arena, an arcade intro and outro, plus a story expansion on World Tour and it's all free. Yeah. Even to those who never bought anything. And you also have the "rental tickets" that grants you the ability to play the paid character for an hour.

Namco, on the other hand, just adds the character in both game and main menu and a buncha crap on their store. Lazy af.
