I'm just a soul whose intentions are good.
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

People wanted more difficulty with upper ranks. Well now we got it. The TGO run was also grimy.

[Mirage | Kaizur カイザー ��️ @Kaizured]

It's crazy how GoD 6 is designed 💀

It's an infinite hell where you have to win 2-0 or start all the way at the bottom again lol I am getting good practice, but there is no joy being had in the slightest anymore

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

DOA was in a position to be one of the top fighters played during the 2000s. But that community fumbled the bag BAD.

[daily dead or alive @dailydoatec]

what’s your unpopular opinion(s) about the Dead or Alive series?

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Tekken community uses the term "broken" waaaay too much. It's overused to the point where some of you are just describing a strong tool versus something actually being busted to the point of "broken."

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

VF community has been a failure for decades with regards to recruiting and keeping players. And no release date for VF6 at all so bare minimum this comes out next year. I'll apologize if I'm wrong but I expect epic levels of fail.

[Red @redre1ated]

Assuming this is legit footage...IF it is...Then IF Sega can stick the landing...Tekken 8 is finished. I'm sure the casuals & those who don't mind ridiculous brainrot mechanics & rpg like characters will continue playing it; however, VF6 is where I will primarily be.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Hot take: Mashing is necessary in order to win.

[Yazka @yazka_tk]

I want tekken hot takes (no p*ssy takes)

hot take: rage arts are very much necessary for modern tekken

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

It's a jungle out there. I know this don't mean much with the whole "rank is easier" and all.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

@SomLikeItRedHot What's your tekken ID?

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

This clip shows quality labbing. But it indirectly shows me why many players get frustrated doing advanced strats. This involves being committed to a split second decision against a character with multiple routes. Guess or wrong or wrong timing and its over.

@313_Footwurk Im usually free in the evenings. On weekends it just depends if im not doing anything with my family. Also Linux and Lpayne have triple threat training too. You can hop in too.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

What would you need to further gut from Bears?

[Mr. Nature @iBrotherNature]

Top 5 character that needs to get gutted already

King
AK
Feng
Bears
Yoshi

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Don't know who needs to hear this but it's okay to have a flowchart in fgs. It means you created choices for your options. The problem with flowcharts are that people:

1) Don't adjust it to their opponent.

Or

2) The chart itself is trash.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

@umbravitti The players DID keep tekken 7 alive. Plenty of offline and online representation. Best selling tekken series. People still played despite how long we had to play t7 before a new one came out.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Tekken has had its ups and downs bur player base has kept it alive. We've provided a variety of support. I can't say the same for some communities trying to bash Tekken. If yal focused over the years supporting your games you would be very active instead of a memory.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Its a thin line between love and hate. Because most of you whined about EVERY tekken yal have been involved in and still kept playing. T8 could be much better but most of us have done the same dance of vent and play.

[MaK @ThuhRealMak]

The worst realization on Tekken Twitter is that 85-95% of yall complain and say u hate the game, but play for 30+ hours a week.

As a company owner/dev I wouldn't change a thing either, lmao. Who cares about reviews?!?!?!?

The reasoning on why u play doesn't matter btw.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

People still play by feel. There's the sweet science of instinct and information. The difference is that information and resources are more available. A lot players and region skill were drastically different based on knowledge back then versus now.

[Akimi Sato ✨💜 IRL Vtuber! @TheAkimiSato]

People treat fighting games like a numbers game too much that it feels like no one plays by feel anymore.

It’s always “how do i set up the safe jump” or “how can i set up a frame kill for plus frames”

Not everything needs a set up. Learn how to improv instead.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

A chance that they will fail at doing because their communities can't hold water. There's not enough dedicated players for each game to keep quality buzz around them.

[Haze 🍉 @haze_tkn]

DOA and VF have a chance to finally topple Tekken from the 3D fighting game throne. If they cant do it with the state Tekken 8 is in then they wont ever be able to.

Theres not a more perfect chance than now.

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

The amount of high level expectations versus reality never ceases to amaze me. Tekken community can't directly or indirectly look at data worh a nothing.

[EWGF.GG @ewgf_gg]

Seems that many people are reaching their GoD goals before S2 ends -- There are now more GoDs than TKS for the first time :O

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Rest easy friend. You were one of reasons I gave Natuto GNT series a shot. It sucks to hear this.

[DC| Juggernaut @Juggernaut954]

SFL Fighting game pillar, Friend,Brother. We will never forget you and all the things you did for the community and friends. Love you bro

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

They need to revert demotion back to t7 style where it put you back at half instead of having a promo chance. T8 rank system is very lenient.

[zane. @TommyKairaTK]

There needs to be more checks from fujin to GoD

You shouldn't be able to rank up on a losing win rate. This is why there's an abundance of GoDs and Blue ranks

It's too easy to get out of lower ranks and Blue ranks shouldn't be the median lol

[ReturnofTheSlick @O1dManSlick]

Vf 4 sold 1.5 million and tekken 4 sold over 4 million. Tekken 4 is considered a dark void in the franchise but was still more successful than vf 4.

Do better.

[DEMETRIUS! (Cmoney) (Dee all the way G) @NanceDemetrius]

Last time I checked when Virtua Fighter and Tekken came out at the same time on the same console VIRTUA FIGHTER 4 DESTROYED TEKKEN 4 making harada quit namco because Tekken 4 fell to vf4 and sold poorly.. but hey, you tekken fans keep showing your fear💯💯
