Weapons.
For a VERY long time we only had Yoshimitsu. Until Victor came along, that is.

I think it would be a nice addition but only if SOME and VERY FEW styles appeared, such as Baritsu and Kali Sticks, to name a few. We don't really need Soul Calibur in Tekken. Just a bit of variety, that's all. Thoughts?

Depends on the way.interactions are designed and how it all meshes with current systems.

Range and pushback matter.

I'd much rather see all weapons disappear rather than having them add even more

I would prefer if we just got Soul Calibur 7, but that's not going to happen.

Soul Calibur = weapons
Tekken = unarmed (mostly)
DOA = boobs

The 3D fighting game trinity needs to be restored.

Me too, including the handguns.
They look really silly in Tekken.

I love last blade and samurai shodown and i play those when i want a weapon based FG.

negan had a bat, leroy has a cane (staff), noctis had a ton of weapons (throwing daggers, spear, greatsword), kinumitsu has daggers, they aren't opposed to adding weapons for some characters if it fits them, almost forgot law, he has nunchucks now

Keep these cowards with weapons out of Tekken. Tekken means iron Fist... no need of a weapon if you are a real fighter: you are the weapon.

We have so much more interesting martial arts needed in Tekken:
-African Wrestling or tribal martial arts
-MMA with ground fighting (I wait for Marduck's return)
-Thai Boxing (give us the best - we want Bruce)
-Savate (France's kickboxing)
-Judo (no Paul isn't doing Judo, he is doing Paul brutal arm swings)
-Shuai-Jiao (most famous chinese wrestling and so spectacular throws... their movements are like Xiaoyu's but for wrestling, they throw you on every side and stances)
-Brazilian Jujitsu
-Sambo (ok we have Dragunov, but something more true with a lot of leg locks).
-Pancrace / Free Fight
-Self-defense for women
-Ameridote - Master Ken must come teaching Tekken's fools the awesomeness of groins kicking
-Penjack Silat (another Asian style with a lot of deadly moves, really cruel and brutal)
-Escrima (why not but not with a stick unless a special move like Law - they have wonderful flow with their strikes and is would be interesting to give them a special 8 direction stance for special strings)

The Iron Fist Tournament.... with swords, daggers, karambit, energy shields, guns, swords, katanas, nunchucks, cyborgs, androids, walking sticks, dogs, throwable heads, exploding rocket rail guns, salmons turning into homing rockets and... bad breath.

if you have robots, devils, bears, kangaroos, dinosaurs going up against little girls and elderly men, then why the hell not?

What we do need is not weapons soul calibur has plenty of those! What we need is a theater mode which katas of each characters respective martial art are seen! I dont know about everyone here but watching these will cheer me up after eating Ls all day.

We need Nina to use her pistols more, but as melee attacks. Gun Fu.

how about ripping off opponents arms and legs and use em as club?

It's hard to believe the braindead design decisions behind incredibly lame characters like Zafina ("Ancient assassination arts" or whatever) when there are tons of more interesting real world examples.

Bamco should just add Dante and we get all the weapon we can think of :D

Yeah but they're pretty much extras. Yoshimitsu's sword and Victor's karambit are ALWAYS active, though. That's the point. A character that's built around their close/medium ranged weapon style.

A Seong-Mi Na, a Kilik or a Hilde would ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ suck in Tekken. We have no need for long ranged weapons at all.

I also think the guns with bullets look ridiculous af, speaking of which, but all the laser ones seem reasonable.
