Normal Tekken game but the characters are more jacked and oiled

[-] JoeKrogan@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

And the plot even more ludicrous

... It's Tekken.

It's always been a muscle man soap opera with stupid hair. (Though, in the realm of fighting games it still has one of the most fleshed out storylines.)

Visually, Tekken 8 is definitely for the fans of "bitchin van art". Admittedly not everybody's cup of tea.

But... if you like that sorta thing it's got some pretty badass moments. Lightning, lava, giant demons - it's the whole package!

It... really doesn't look that good.

If you had told me this was, I dunno, Tekken 6 from 2007 I would have believed you.

I don't agree. While it doesn't reinvent the wheel, it is surely an improvement to the previous ones and plays very very nicely. Try the demo for yourself

Maybe don’t judge a game from a poorly compressed video on the internet. Just a thought.

I'm quite enjoying it. I like the addition of the Heat systems, both giving an opportunity for special attacks without waiting to be nearly dead first and giving (healable!) chip damage. Making it timed - but triggered - adds a layer of strategy for when to kick it off.

It's fun!

Whether it's the "best" in the series is gonna be a matter of taste, but this is definitely a stronger game all around than 7.

I think the game is quite good, I just downloaded it at guaumod.io and tried it out
