With all due respect harada san, now you are starting to get on my nerves. Now i will make a long tweet harada san, like you like to do sometimes. I will be harsh, but fair...LISTEN, READ....
You know harada san, us die-hard tekken fans, especially the ones that have been around for decandes now, do you understand what kind of people we are? We used to spend hundreds or thousends of dollars back in the day, just so we could go to tournaments that were being hostet by other community members, and compete.
There was no TWT, there was no saudi oil money in esports yet. There was just our love for the game and our passion. I started with Tag2, a very unpopular game. Back then it wasnt "cool" to play tekken, but people still did, for teh love of the game. Just think of knee who has been playing for longer that most players nowadays have been alive. Or Kuro Kuro san who has been playing since Tekken 1 Network test.
Players like him, and knee, and thousands of others, like me, WE UNDERSTANS THE GAME HARADA SAN, WE DONT HAVE TO PLAY IT TO UNDERSTAND IT. WE KNOW SHIT WHEN WE SEE IT. You know, maybe hire someone that also undrestands the game to maybe test your steeming pile of dogshit game before hyping up a new season and delivering....this....
We know what we love, we know what we poured our years into, and we know when the very thing that we love is getting destroyed before our eyes.
Harada san, you propably wont read this, i would really like for you to read this tho.
I met you a couple of times now.
First time was in Paris, during Japan Expo.
You had brought the Vanilla version of T7 with you, the first time the game would come to europe...
I even remember i wanted to get an autograpgh, but hadnt registered for the meet and greet, but murray san saw me outside of the line and i talked with him, and he let me get an autograpgh from u after everyone was gone. That was a very nice moment, it showed that u guys cared about people like me.
I met you a couple times since then, you wouldnt remember tho...
I like you harada san, you created one of the things that i love most in life.
But you know what i dont like harada san?
The fact that you can casually say "i wont stop you from leaving".......How dare you man. How fucking dare you huh? You say that to people like me? Who have been thru the hardest time with your game? You dare say that to me? Who the fuck do you think you are? Huh?
That S65 AMG you are driving harada san, you are driving it because of people like me, who stuck with your "product" thru hard times. That the way you see tekken nowadays right? A product?!?!
Tekken is something more that that you little bitch, tekken is way more than that. And sorry that i am using bad words, BUT YOU MADE ME SAY THEM HARADA SAN, YOUUUUU.
Do you think because you are the head of the game, that you can just say and do what you want?
"Dont ask me for shit", that was funny back then, but now, when so many of the people that put you in your postion, by supporting you thru your "flops", when they tell you their concerns about something that they love, you show them the door?! WER BIST DU SCHEISS HUNDESOHN HUH?
And you say "i wont stop you from leaving?!?!?".
You should be on your fucking knees and begging us not to go you little fucker. (soryy again, but u made me say these bad things harada san)
You should do everything to make us happy, but this attitude? Of course, now you are successful? Now you sell millions of copies.
"No need to listen to the ones who have been here all along, i dont need those losers anymore" right? Thats how you feel right? You know better right?!?!
YOU DONT KNOW BETTER, AND YOU TEAM ALSO DOESNT KNOW SHIT. Tell them to go back and develop a soul calibur game, and leave tekken alone.
You know, after e certain point every man should understand that they made a mistake, and own up to it.
It was very clear from the moment you first showed Tekken8, that the direction you guys were taking the game is a bad one, a direction noone want to go in.
I remember in amsterdam TWT finals 2022, when you made a special presentation that was like 40 mins long, and showed the first T8 gameplay to the HARDCORE enthusiasts in the audience.
People were tired of T7 at that point, and they were hungry for T8. You start the presentation, everybody is going nuts. Then you say :"the game phylosophy is agression"...and you could hear a pin drop in that moment in the theater in amsterdam. EVERYBODY KNEW WHAT THEY DIDNT LIKE. From the first second.
There were alot of people who were optimistic during season 1, but now i think you even managed to kill the last optimism poeple had. They see, WE SEE the direction you are taking the game, AND WE DONT LIKE IT.
And harada san, if you tell people that you wont stop them from going....and they go away....dont be surprised when they dont ever come back.....
