I Played Tekken 8 To See If Its BETTER Than Mortal Kombat 1...

[@BruskPoet]

What are your thoughts on Tekken 8?

[@kzakulenga5138]

Everything Mortal Kombat 1 should've been day one Krossplay Full roster of characters that aren't locked behind pay walls A story mode where we ACTUALLY see a Tournament plays out not just watching Raiden fight Outworld by himself Better customization A jukebox mode Better offline and online modes. If Tekken 8, brings back Tekken Force mode MK1 isn't going to recover even if they add Tag team features

correction on 2:28 the customization in Tekken 8 is a lot better than Tekken 7, but it all pales in comparison to Tag 2 and Tekken 6 customizations.

Do a guide on TEKKEN 8 for MK1 Players. Discuss what the similarities are in concepts (footies, punishes, etc.) and how to learn the concepts that make TEKKEN 8 unique (side-walking, combos, etc.).

[@sertiana2512]

I agree, let NRS see the mess they made

[@baconbitz7804]

Just in case he doesn’t make the video footsies in tekken are similar to other fighting games where you move in and out if your opponents range and use pokes to hit them. The only difference is there aren’t typically projectiles that you have to worry about. Punishment is the hard part and plays into your defense which is also the hardest part. Frames are incredibly important so punishes are broken into categories of 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 frame punishes. There are also while rising or while standing moves that are used if you duck under a high attack or block a low. Most of the time your punishes are high damage attacks instead of combos up to the 14 or 15 frame range. Sidestep is possible for avoiding certain strings but you should mainly use it to avoid running attacks or after doing a move that -4 to -1. Combos usually involve a launcher, filler moves to add damage, a tornado move to knock them over and then a high damage ender when they’re on the ground. Some characters have drastically harder combos than others so if you can’t do combos on someone like Kazuya or Lee you might be able to on Paul or Jin. The main thing that’s difficult about tekken is defense but it’s nothing like other fighting games

[@Li776ghv]

I'm more of a Mortal Kombat fan than I am a Tekken fan. But the amount of love Tekken 8 shows to the previous games is something I've been dying for in Mortal Kombat. Tekken pays homage to Tekken 6 story mode for a section in 8's story, All the characters acknowledge the past lore and build on it (other than Law and Paul), and the music that kicks in from previous games in the perfect moments almost brings tears to my eyes. Compare that to M1K. All the characters have died twice and been reset twice, barely any of them act like their previous selves. All their backstories have changed for the worse. And if they die, they can just be replaced by an infinite supply of alternate timeline versions and it wont matter at all. Even Liu Kang, the only "OG" character in the new timeline, came out of a random Kronika portal in MK11, and we never experienced his timeline or really know who tf he is. I still can't get over how this new Bi-Han is a pos with 0 redeeming qualities, for no reason other than that's how Noob acted in MK11. This guy went from my favorite character, to HsuHao levels of never wanting to see him again because of how s**t his story is.

I'll say this as someone who's first Tekken game was Tekken 7 with 7 yrs of playtime I always felt the love Harada and the team went on T7 which basically saved the series after almost being killed by Tekken Tag 2, Tekken 8 is a love letter to Tekken fans and it shows they finally get the budget to create a game with amazing single player, and learning tools customization options are limited than Tekken 6 but the love for the new characters and redesigns is amazing. The story mode was an improvement from T7 and they brought back the CG endings per character, the ghost feature might be from the top player now playing their ghost to train it to play like them.

11:15 to be fair, in kung Laos MK9 chapter, when Shao Kahn killed kung lao, then you get to play as Liu kang, which felt right for that situation. But on the other hand, there’s times where the targeted character is protected by plot armor until their chapter ends, which feels weird imo

[@Flame_Blaziken]

If you want to get started on making tekken lore videos, then starting with the first 3 games would be nice. Its a pretty simple story, gets you a nice sizeable cast to start researching with, and by the end you'll have a good grasp on most of the motivations of most of the mainstays in the cast that will then continue to transfer over all the way to tekken 8. Tekken 3 especially is worth your time since in includes the predecessor to the multibattles in tekken 8 story called Tekken Force and the first version of Tekken ball as well. Tekken Tag Tournament 1 and 2 are also good as well if you want to play Tekken with 2 characters and assist mechanics. After that, you can probably go after each game on by one or if you want to experience most of the games in another story mode similar to tekken 8 (although not as good imo), you can play the tekken 7 story and it will catch you pretty fast on the other tekken games.

In tekken 6, the entire story mode was this but i think a lot of people didnt like it, but I loved it and you could play it online with friends together. I hope they bring a tekken force in a future update.

[@BullC6]

I don't mind people playing special style, especially if you can still work on your basics like movement, patience, timing and mixup. But I do think that special style's potential is capped. Like I could see you missing some key punishment and your special style doing seeable launch punishable low. At some point, I would recommend that you start weaning off them and there is always super ghost battle where you can train without pressure. Remember, whatever character you wanna play stick to 15-25 key moves, no need to stress learning whole movelist. It can naturally develope as you try new moves or see other players do them. Like with King, your key moves are 1,2, 2,1, df1/df1,2, df2/df2,1, db3, d3, ffn2, f2,1/f2,d1,2, uf4, b1/b1,2/b1,4, ff1, uf3+4, b3,1+2, ws2,2 and some of his command grabs like Giant Swing, Shining Wizard, Tombstone and Muscle Buster.

@@degisndinga8853Maybe more fun, I love MKX but as a fighting game MK tends to slack, although yes MKX was very fun and there is a reason you can still find matches easily on that game, it’s fun

[@degisndinga8853]

@@volktol4432 mkx is a deep technical fighter, even people and pros from other fighting game like justin wong say its the best mk. I just want nrs stuck with the mkx gameplay and keep improving on it in every new entry like tekken does and not start everything from scratch. Cause that how you get mk1 that formula isnt good.

Ngl the 3D Mortal Kombat had potential to surpass Tekken if not for it's Fanbase hating the change and I'm saying this as a Tekken fan, look at my uploads 😅

[@BoyBawalKo]

Tekken player here. Ngl I really enjoyed MK1 story mode more than T8. Visuals, mo cap and va got Tekken beat. And between the all out war in T8 vs the comical multiverse battles in MK, MK was far more entertaining. The better game though is Tekken, period.

[@nemoschemo5395]

2:42 ima tell you a secret the reason why people say this customization is worst than 7 is cause 7s customization was bad compared to tekken 6's amount of options and unlockables you could get

[@elzorro.5923]

If you are looking forward to create Tekken content to entertain... I'll say you start with the background of some iconic characters, listening to old Tekken OST in the jukebox and make a tier list, what makes Tekken different from other games and why you like it. Etc. - Good to have you in this community.

[@2vizion2]

Tekken 7 and 8 has about the same when it comes to customization tag 2 had the best customization

[@ApocalypseHistorian]

Tbh... Tekken has always been the better more complete fighting game experience. The only time NRS out did a Capcom release was MK 3 and MK Armageddon. Because 3 was the first game with full roster and Hella secrets to unlock. While Armageddon had amazing new characters full roster, a story adventure mode with Easter eggs lore and all sorts of shit and really made the MK universe come alive. Then they released mk9 and it's been shit ever since

[@mrluigi641]

For a mk youtuber to state tekken 8 is better is nuts. If this doesn’t change the hardcore mk fans, idk what will. Tekken 8 is so damn good

I liked Street Fighter 6 more than mk 1 ! ? How is that freakin possible ! ? I gotta try tekken now !

[@stuckwchuck]

Great vid BP

[@Error50505]

As someone who bought mk1 day 1 and has over 500 hours, first day I got Tekken 8 I was already having more fun in one match then the thousands I’ve had in mk1

[@derekwhite4312]

Yeah using the Easy feature really helps learning how combos work but once I turned that off and learned how to actually do all the moves it skyrockets the fun. I was a hardcore only mk player but mk1 got me to try something else and I’m glad I did. It’s so sick

[@giver6153]

Oh my god,i remember Motor Kombat,that's my favourite MK game/mini game spend tons of hour with my friends playing that

[@RMZ413]

I’ve been playing Mortal Kombat ever since Shaolin Monks, never skipped a single MK game until mk1 2023, I never expected that I would actually like another fighting franchise over MK

[@Zachebi]

I’ve played multiple fighters and i can definitely say mortal kombat creates the most scumbag players

Nahh they had plenty time to save it remember??? "This is the longest we've ever worked on a MK game"

The video is amazing and i actually agree with you on everything on the both sides of both games I just wanted to say a fun fact which is, not only you can check the replay for tips of what could you have done in the match better, but actually try to do so or look for other options STILL in the replay (literally you take control of yourself or the other player in the replay) this was in Guilty Gear XX +R, controlling a past version of yourself or your enemy to try different outcomes or solutions to a mixup, trap, etc, it is really cool that an old feature from a completely different fighting game made it to Tekken 8, i don't know any other game that has this feature besides those two games

[@The_WIll_OF_D99]

fun fact the live replay feature you talked about was first introduced in Guilty Gear +R. it was added Retroactively when that game got Rollback from fans and thanks to Arcsys for allowing them to work together they made GG+R the best its ever been. It set a new standard all fighting games needs to reach. So far thanks to that it set up a trend and its beneficial for everyone. 1. Guilty Gear +R has it originally (NOW) 2. UnderNight 2 has it 3. Tekken 8 has it And more to come hopefully. Its truly a great feature. What Tekken did that innovated what is still new for modern fighting games is TELLING YOU what you COULD have done here or a possible punish here ect. TRULY the best timeline for us fighting game fans.

[@G0thLily]

Happy to see you enjoying Tekken 8! Remember that there are greener fields out there

[@mosley3485]

A couple of things that I think need to be said are that the character customisation options are extremely limited compared to previous Tekken games, and they've just announced that they'll be selling customisation stuff in a cash shop, so that's pretty disappointing. And the special style controls should not be compared to SF's modern controls. Special style is mainly for if you're playing through story mode with characters that you don't know and won't have time to learn during the one fight that you play them for. It's incredibly restrictive and honestly not a whole lot easier than just playing the character normally.

[@TheDoctorSlug]

I think the problem with Mortal Kombat 1 is that it's published by Warner Bros. which is notoriously known to be soulless corporate entity at this point. Look what they've done with DC, HBO, Scooby-Doo, and other IP that they own... Harada, as annoyed as he is at so many Tekken fans, understands the passion and love most fans have for the game, and ACTUALLY listens to the audience. Bandai Namco is super lenient with Harada and trusts that he is gonna COOK UP a banger fighting game.

[@SweeetSweetV]

Depending on which ghost you downloaded, (before the more recent patch which banned or reset players using hacks) some of the top leaderboard players were just manipulating the matchmaking to fight against their alt accounts, to rank up easily. So the ghost system may have downloaded that they're actually trash when you fought that ghost. Good stuff on your part 🎉 You're gonna love it here! Welcome to TEKKEN!

[@LordDurbian]

You have a whole audience of mortal kombat players who want to play the better game just like you are. That’s all the content you need give guides on how to adapt, who to pick up etc

[@Texas08Heat]

I think it was the Tekken 6 jukebox that allowed you to put music from your console on each stage and menu. I miss that feature.
