Tekken 8 might have just pissed a lot of people off...

[@franro2204]

You will never please everyone. And it's not like Square is giving away an iconic property just like that. Let the children be mad, who cares. I think they did a great job with Clive. They recreated his kit very well and represents FF16 well.

[@wood1066]

Only people mad are people who wanted coomer bait and hardcore Tekken fans who get mad at everything.

[@seia2758]

Pissed who? I'm hyped asf, Clive is awesome!

[@zzephi]

They obviously wanted Tifa in but she was too expensive so they went for clive. It's that simple.

[@BOTTrik]

no, clive was choosen before T8 launch acording to the recent tekken talk

[@1Thani]

This is not even close. Watch the tekken talk or a recap of it for more details.

[@whisky9499]

Who pissed? Tifa fans? Oh, idgf, I am loving new dlc and will main the hell out of Clive!

[@Azelthy]

it's the tifa coomers who are pissed lmao

[@BertDaBeethoven]

I watched Phidx's summary of why Clive is here. Turns out they've been planning this for the last like 2 years before Tekken 8 even got revealed and I think before FF16 even started being made, so I respect Clive a lot more now. (edit: sry if you mentioned this in the vid I'm one of those viewers who gets this in my recommended and then immediately comments without watching for shits and giggles, but if you didn't know, enjoy the fun fact)

[@mr.voidout4739]

All I know is a pic was recently tweeted of Hirada, Yoshida, Sakurai, and Nomura dining at a classy restaurant . So it should be interesting to see what the other gentlemen are planning going forward. I'm thinking other FF, Tekken, or KH character in Smash, an XIV x Kingdom Hearts quest event, or all of the above. An XIV x Tekken event I don't see happening, it'd just be bizarre (as if the Neir raids weren't bonkers enough lol.)

[@NoGunPowder.]

We also have to consider that its not up to the Tekken devs to add tifa it's square enix. if they are gate keeping tifa then there's nothing they can do. We can't just ask for something out of there control and think they will accept it. Licencing issues are still a thing you know.

[@vodkak1890]

Nothing new: we reacted the same in T7

[@AlexanderMartinez-kd7cz]

imma be honest, I'm not mad at clive. I'm mad because this feels like someone killed a mosquito in the past and somehow clive ended up in tekken and soul calibur died. also all the clive stands poking fun at the gooners like they wouldn't have bought tifa day 1 lmao

[@FusionLord99]

I wouldn't have bought Tekken 8 if it wasn't for Clive (i bought it last night after i saw the trailer). Tifa wouldn't have gotten my money at all 🫡

[@mr.voidout4739]

FF16 didn't exactly win-over the JRPG genre. He should've been saved for a SC7 if Soul Project ever decides to make another one. Tekken should've used a modernish FF character, ideally the ones that are currently promonent i.e. FF7 characters. Obviously Tifa would be the logical choice for most people. Modern, a fist fighter, some ...modest appeal (or is that exclusive only to Nina?) Heck, she's already been in a 3D fighting game, sooo.... Enough of sword fighters at any rate!

[@Tryhardfann]

Soul Calibur is a dead franchise at this point, so it's good Clive got to be made for Tekken 8. Clive was planned to be in Tekken before they even announced Tekken 8.

[@chrisolivares-to8jf]

Kiryu would have been a better choice than both

[@David_Johnson]

There's been few sword fighters at Tekken other than Yoshimitsu and Victor. It doesn't make it better if it's just gonna be a martial arts type of game. You got to mix it up.

[@DestroyDEI]

Stay mad

[@David_Johnson]

@@DestroyDEI At what exactly? I'm not the one who wanted Tifa in the game.

[@lajazziamacklin8418]

If they want Tifa in Tekken 8, it's not going to happen anytime soon in the future. I suggest they wait for Part 3 of Rebirth to come out to see more of her and STOP WHINING. Square Enix obviously doesn't want Tifa in Tekken 8 and it's easy to see why. I mean I'm happy that Sephiroth got in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but you don't see me whining about wanting him in EVERY SINGLE GAME after that, especially Tekken 8. I'm quite happy with him being in my favorite Smash Bros. game since childhood and playing with him is a blast for me.

[@Empty_Roar]

All the people complaining about tifa. If you buy and play Clive then they will give you tifa when the last game of the trilogy comes out. Need to show them that tekken is good advertising and people actually want their characters via money.

[@hiro_sekai5948]

That's probably not how it works. If we buy Clive, they'd probably think something like: "Yea nevermind we don't need Tifa anyway" Just buy him if you want to, no need to think about it that much

[@Empty_Roar]

@hiro_sekai5948 dlc was 50% off so I went for it

[@hiro_sekai5948]

@@Empty_Roar great, hope you're enjoying it

[@GaidenDS10]

Tekken 7 has a lot of DLCs so it’s not the end of the world wimps. If Harada gave us like 8 DLCs instead of 4 then that’ll make at least us happier fans though I doubt that’s gonna happen.

[@GaidenDS10]

We’ll never pleased everyone, the devs had their own ideas. Tifa’s case is similar to Megaman X. He was claymored for Ultimate MvsC 3 but wasn’t in and a popular choice on the capcom’s side. Tifa at this age has her own haters sadly (mostly unjustified but both have freaks on their sides) why half of the devs maybe sheltered her under someone’s decision and Harada.

[@agnesfruto7686]

nah who cares about Tifa. She should be in DOA 6 for that

[@Silentkidgaming]

And clive in calibur

[@DeadlyDuel]

too bad doa is apparently dead right now so...

[@aeoncalcos7830]

Ey ey ey I don't want none of that shit in DOA

[@evilmookey1067]

DOA is a dead fighting game. Tifa can fit in DOA but Tekken is more popular.

[@thechugg4372]

I'm guessing it's new fans of Tekken that may be pissed by this, the older fans already know not to Ask Harada for shit. The new blood will learn.

[@ryukopoolpeacemaker228hd9]

Clive rosfield was a better pick for tekken 8 than tifa especially in the modern day

[@Bike-chan]

Is he? He fits more into soul callibur honestly.

[@Bluzlbee]

A sword guy verse a fist fighting girl, huhhhh?? 🤨 Nobody liked Noctis, everybody loves Tifa

[@ryukopoolpeacemaker228hd9]

@Bluzlbee not sure bout that one chef because after when noctis was released in tekken 7 people was starting to like him granted there was hate but it was a good way to promote final fantasy 15

[@Bluzlbee]

Tekken should've made the deal to get Tifa in, this is a lose lose situation, they should have just dropped final fantasy than if they can't commit

[@mario08133]

Also, I think Square Enix/Soft should have shoulder the responsibility as well. It would appear this is also their decision.

[@coolman035]

“Chris red field”

[@Gley-m7m]

Wouldn't tifa just play like josie from t7? I don't think tifa has a unique way of fighting from what I've seen in ff7remake or rebirth.

She actually does? She also has chi attacks and can heal herself too.

[@Zapzzable100]

Facts!

[@Karzeon]

I wanted Tifa for the sole reason that FF7 and Tekken 2-3 were some of THE killer apps for PS1. I fondly remember that time and I was hoping with Rebirth being released it would be close enough. Oh well. Haven't checked into FF since 12, everything 11 and up isn't really my vibe. Guy looks hot, but this just looks foreign to me in every way. Not buying, hope the people enjoy him though.

[@Ilinca6]

I am very pissed. I avoided spoilers for ff16 for 1+ years. After it came to PC, was waiting for a sale (I don't shit money). My friends said the stage and moves are spoilers. Bought the game. Started playing it. 4 hours in. Put 2 and 2 togheter. Now I see were the plot is going cuz of Tekken 8 Clive trailer. Damn you Tekken. Also magic and sword user for Tekken. Wtf

[@AntagonisticArtichoke]

Ff16 was cool Clive is probably my top five ff protagonist and while it makes a lot more sense to add tifa square been on a freaking roll for bad decisions since they released forspoken if we’re upset complain to Square not team tekken

[@ty21lee65]

The creators of takken has never given the fans a character that the people wanted the most. So why would they start now? FF6 had already finished making their game. they started making a Collab with tekken 8 before it was finished

[@johnsharp3459]

what about zell from final fantasy 8, i also like tifa to, as i was thinkin

[@justinpurcell3717]

I didn't even want a final fantasy character at all... soooo, screw their feelings.

[@yendayo]

Banam dont like money

[@gemsplus7583]

He is very handsome and hot, however Tifa was better for Tekken 8!!

Well idont give shit about people they didit make my man in tekken 8 for me ilove them thank you bandai ❤❤❤❤ ilove you so match

[@mario08133]

Let’s go Clive!

[@DonShotta24]

So you didn’t read ANYTHING on Clive? You should’ve read up on why he can transform and such. FF16 is an amazing game. But we wanted TIFA

[@dreamkingcollectibles]

@@DonShotta24 I did read up on him, but none of the details about him really change what I said in the video here. To people who don’t know who he is (which seems to be quite a lot of people), the transformation still looks like the devil gene (and Bandai Namco likely thought the same putting him next to Jin), and this is still the second time we’ve seen a Final Fantasy guest in Tekken where it wasn’t one of the franchise’s biggest and most recognizable faces (I.e. Tifa).

[@lesliska]

You think Tekken fans actually give a shit about lore? Go ahead and tell me why your generic anime character does generic anime stuff.

[@DonShotta24]

@@lesliska I was speaking specifically to Dream King because he said he didn’t understand why Clive had certain moves.

[@channelseven328]

@@lesliskawe do, just because the devs stopped caring doesn’t mean the OG fans did Tekken’s lore used to actually be interesting and took itself a bit more seriously,and that same statement applies to a lot of things these days unfortunately

why do you losers want tifa so badly?😂 like theres not literally a 100 characters wayyy cooler to add....example anyone from baki verse .... Yakuza verse .etc ...🤡s

[@chrisolivares-to8jf]

Kiryu >>> Tifa easily

[@BongWatah]

Kiryu would've been waaaaaayyyyyyy cooler than clive

[@levide9454]

It's not that there aren't better guest characters than Tifa. It's that there's no better FF representative than her. If they went with any other franchise for a DLC character, no one would be upset. It's like getting people hyped for another Street Fighter guest character and of all the potential iconic, game/dlc selling options, they deliver Lily or Dhalsim... Like what if they teased a Yakuza guest then delivered Tanimura? I'm pretty sure people would be dissapointed in the same way.
