Well, I'm a beginner at the game so if you've played it for any length of time, reupping your ps plus to play me probably wouldn't be worth it lol Maybe I'll see if I can find a cheap/free trial code online for PS plus. I haven't played Tekken a whole lot since the pandemic began so you might have a chance DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm kinda enjoying playing the game casually, which is a bit of a different mindset for coming from competitive SamSho Quote Link to comment

I played Last Blade 2 a little bit ages ago (over a decade) but I'm not sure if that is even similar to SamSho lol Edited November 13, 2021 by elliephil Quote Link to comment

It's a pretty amazing game, it has so much to offer and is, in my opinion, the gem of the series, although there are some other great games in there too. If you ever want to spar once you get your bearings, I could show you some stuff if you're interested, no pressure tho. LB2 is a cool game, I've played it a bit, had some people tell me it wasn't quite as deep as SamSho but there are people who like it quite a lot. Quote Link to comment

If I have the time, I'm always down to play something, almost anything. I've been crazy busy since the pandemic started with my job so I'm lucky if I get more than a few hours each week to play something. I was excited to play Last Blade 2 again on PS4. Unfortunately, that port was absolutely terrible at launch lol I think the neutral is generally the same as SamSho, maybe a little bit more aggressive at times. It kinda depends on which mode you pick for each character. Idk, I mostly played Hibiki which I think is similar to Ukyo? Is that char in 5? LOL Quote Link to comment

FightDirty Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 T7 in EVO '22 had some great matches as usual. I know a lot of folks like to complain about T7 but it's currently one of the most entertaining games to watch when you see the pros playing it at a high level. Quote Link to comment

I'd say it was just Harada & crew trolling people who actually thought there would be any sort of substantial info concerning T8 at the tourney. I'd be surprised if anything is revealed about the next game before the end of the year & personally don't know why there should be any rush. Folks might as well keep asking for Tekken X Street Fighter, lol. Quote Link to comment

I think that by this point I should say that I am open to play any fg on ps4/ps5 with the exception of Infinite and Strive We can try run some matches some day this week if you want, I am not really good at it, since I have not played in quite a while Mattatsu 1 Quote Link to comment

delete_me Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 On 9/14/2022 at 8:32 AM, HeavensCloud said: I thought so too. It looks the same as 7. It looks significantly better, particularly in terms of character models. The only issues I see is that this stage is so heavy in particle and rain effects that it just destroys any kind of compressed footage we've seen so far. And the other issue are the animations, because Tekken character have been moving in the same way for decades now and that obviously always makes new games look less, well, new. But just from a technical standpoint it's still a big step forward. It's just that Tekken is kind of stuck in a specific style and art-direction, so they're approaching the area of diminishing returns in what they can do with it. Quote Link to comment
