tekken 3 is fucking dogshit. it's almost unplayably bad outside of mashing. So why is this game remembered so foundly while t8 is shit on? T8 is by every metric a better game.
brown
I like both. And btw tekken 3 is surprisingly deep.
autistic or ragebait?!?!?
>>747736740T3 was the first balanced onceIn 2 you died within two juggles
>>747736740kekken as a whole is dogshit. 3d fighters were just a meme, but it seems harada and namco didn't get the memo that mentioned the industry alredy moved on from it
>>7477387752d fighters are much worse
>>747736740>T8 is by every metric a better game.Lol no. T8 is cringe
>>747739575Lol you dont know anything about tekken or fighting games.
>>747736740It's the best of the ps1 games by a substantial margin.And it's better than 7 or 8
Tekken 4 is actually the best Tekken game
>>747736740Listen to me buddy, if you play against me just mashing buttons like a pleb, I'll fuck you. Is that clear to you, shithead?
>Tekken is so bad idk why people like tekken>>what do you think is a good fighting game>... em this bullshit which isn't even built for controller inputEvery fighting game discussionPlay what you like, fighting games are a house nigger form of video game anyway.
Bunch of idiots who dont play. Ps1 and ps2 tekken games are kusoshit
>>747736740This is why normal people hate you Zoomers so much
>>747736740its still somewhat fun, tekken 7/8 are better but people will be mad because they will be playing t8 for 500 hours+ while with t3 it will be a quick 1-2 hours session.
>>747738775Nah Virtua Fighter and Soul Calibur are awesome3D fighters need ring outs otherwise it's just a stalemate of which sucker attacks first which is why Tekken is boring as shitGreat music though
>>747736740Cope, trash. I used to win money playing this shit against friends. Button mashing only helps you against other button mashers.
>>747744085>Button mashing only helps you against other button mashers.Yeah, and when you play beyond the mashing level it becomes immediately obvious why the game sucks.So on top of being shit at games youre also illiterate
>>747744071hope vf crossroads is good, gameplay looks good so far
>cut combo damage, combo juggle airtime and corner carry by 50% and suddenly Tekken is the best fighting franchise by a mileNah, don't do that, instead just put more belts, feathers and capes on the characters and add neutral skipping mechanics
>>747736740Tekken 3 is a game that's carried by its god-tier presentation. It became popular because it wasn't as focused on being competitive, it was just 'cool.' It was, for quite some time, the coolest videogame out there. It had a style and aesthetic that was dripping with edgy late 90's shit. I was 10 years old at the time, and stuff like Jin's flame-pants and whatever was the peak of what I and most of the people around me, thought was 'cool' then.You can't discredit aesthetics and being part of the 'wave' of popular opinion just because the game underneath isn't good anymore. You're going back to 1997.>Once again, fate brings together those who heed the call...Really encapsulates on the 90s idea of coolness.https://youtu.be/IsvtUxEFQaU?si=16NUavSUpurkx-3w
>>747744426>>cut combo damageany basic t3 Paul juggle will eat 50%, the only plus is not watching annoying long combos but you still die in less interactions.
Top notch presentation.
>>747736740Tekken 3 has great art direction and music, the gameplay is awful and only worked because we were mashing retarded children when we first played it, there's a reason nobody actually plays old fighting games
>>747736740I've never been able to click with any of the Tekken games. I'm so used to anime fighters where everything can cancel into everything else. Tekken its all juggles and figuring frame advantage. I'd probably be fine if the game was purely footsies but damage is so explosive that it hurts.
>>747738612oh no... hits are lethal in a fighting game...
You need friends to enjoy Tekken 3, anon, not random matchmade lobbies with Rage Art mashers.
>>747744675Also cool shit like thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OViNqWFF6wOverall the game was and still is cool as fuck.Top notch style, music, sound design, everything
>>747746037>there's a reason nobody actually plays old fighting games
Current State of TEKKEN. | 32:54
>>747747391Yea, step out of your discord fighter bubble
that's why it's good. even girls who normally didn't care about video games loved tekken 3, and you can play it with 3 year olds who struggle with every other game.
>>747736740Soul Edge gameplay is also pretty bad, but the setting, graphics, and music are good and it introduced many beloved characters who remain the series' mainstays to this day. We also have the benefit of hindsight, back then it was some of the best 3D fighter gameplay that was available. It's not fair to judge it alongside more modern games when hardly anyone knew how to make 3D games at that time.
>>747748015The thing about older fighters is that they're almost entirely clunky, but it's a part of the charm. Knowing exactly how the moves will always turn out may be more rigid but it's better than mush fighting like what Netherrealm became where characters just mash into each other. And the Dead or Alive fluidity is long buried under bad Koei Tecmo decisions and softcore hentai wannabe shit when they decide they're actually marketing towards that to begin with. I'll always take a Tekken, a Virtua Fighter, a Soul Calibur, over most other 3D fighters that may as well be arena fighter anime games, or bumblefuck around with weird shit.
>>747748307man i don't even know why I used NRS as an example when I forgot they still do 2D fightersjesus christ the noteworthy 3D fighter scene really is just Tekken, VF and DoA
>>747736740Tekken 1-3 definitely show their age (no sidestep or sidewalk, no walls), they're alright the same way SF2's and forgotten KoF's are alright. Nobody played T4, Tekken 5 DR is really good but not nearly as studied competatively as T8, Tekken 6 is also great but criticized for Rage and lame newcomers as well as enshittification of game lore; nobody bought TTT2, and Tekken 7 was obviously full of shit but we loved it anyway. So why not love Tekken 8? It's balanced, it's full of content, it looks gorgeous, it's fun to watch, Reina is fucking cool, Miary has great tits and Victor has that famous french dude's voice. Stop being little bitches like Aris and enjoy the game for what it is.
>>747744675Nta but i dont care about what was considered cool in the 90s. I want to understand these games better. I know that most fighting games are dispropotionately hyped up by casual mashers. But theres always a competitive side that sincerely believes that the game their playing is one of if not the best in their series or the genre. I have heard many people make rational cases for the merits of many sf or gg games. I want to hear the same for more games so i can better understand this genre and other peoples perspectives in the community
>>747748474tekken 8 is the most scrubby masher coin flip shit I've ever played in my life
>>747736740filtered
>>747748474>So why not love Tekken 8? It's balancedAbsolutely fucking not.
>>747748780Sajam would humiliate you in a debate. Classic lazy ass boomer casual argument. https://youtu.be/WD3_XdheO9U?si=_W7FGpEC-CPG9hG3Watch this video itll do you some good
>>747748948I didn't ask or leave room for a rebuttal
>>747748474>So why not love Tekken 8?heat + chip dmg + the game being made for normies and encourages you to play like oneits getting slowly better but for years you were penalized for playing defensivelyi will never forget the absurdity of season 1 with people losing their entire health bars because they refused to press a button against kumaall this plus frame nonsense on homing moves is also completely braindead, the people that made this game were being guided to make it so that it appeals to beginners on purpose, nobody is that stupid to design a game this way without specifically aiming to make sure there was no skill gap at allit failed miserably and they were forced to draw back their nonsense because the game was dying
>>747748907Occasionally some characters turn out slightly better competatively (right now it's Drag, Bryan, Fahkumram, Victor, Law; before it was Anna and Claudio) or slightly worse (DJ, Asuka) but generally you always see different guys. I watch tournaments a lot and let me tell you that I don't remember a single top-8 with six Leroys if you catch my drift. Even King is played only by TheJon now.
>>747748780>tekken 8 is the most scrubby masher coin flip shit I've ever played in my lifeNice ad hominem
>>747749517right I don't respect the game or you. fuck you and harada and brian murray and whoever else worked on this embarrassment
>>747749623>right I don't respect the game or youBurden of proof was on you and you failed, youve made everyone who shares your opinion look retarded.
>>747736740literally the best videogame ever, that is tekken 3 along tony hawk 2.
>>747749950>literally the best videogame ever, that is tekken 3Why not other fgs. Whats special about tekken 3?
>uh the burden of proof is ackshually on you to prove that tekken 3 is the best fighting game>you know aura and superior limb based combat arent REAL explanations>i require CONTEXTCant imagine being a 2d fag
>why do people have such strong positive feelings for this game they played in their childhood and/or adolescence>why don't they care for it's modern bastardisationWe just don't know
>>747751176>>why do people have such strong positive feelings for this game they played in their childhood and/or adolescenceMask off moment for uncs. Its just nostalgia. /thread
>>747749263>you were penalized for playing defensivelyCompared to which fighting game? Tekken's mix-ups are some of the least offensive in the genre. It's oki is hilariously forgiving as well.>mid-high string? duck the high>mid-mid string? probably punishable>not punishable or duckable? learn to sidestep>strong homing move? interruptable, parriable, armor'able>you're stuck in the corner? should've thought earlier, now do something like a side-changing throw or a wall jump or a risky reversalMeanwhile you literally lose your meter in universally beloved Guilty Gear series for blocking, and in SF6 throw loop exists (Mena will tell you that it's not even the worst or most volatile part about the game).
>>747751735>Mena will tell you that it's not even the worst or most volatile part about the gameWhat does he think is the worst part
>>747736740it's fun
