Tekken 8 | Super Casual Review

Hi all! here is my little review for Tekken 8! I've only talked about old games on the channel so far so its really nice to talk about something new!
So I've noticed the footage isn't as sharp as id like? I'm not sure why I assumed the ps5 captured in a higher quality than what's displayed but maybe my settings are wrong. Something to look into but since this is a short and sweet one not a huge deal.
Anyway thanks for watching! im doing well with making content and enjoying it! If anyone wants a match on tekken some time drop me a message or a comment! See you next video!

I really appreciate you telling people to avoid The Meta and immediately jumping at combo learning. That for sure keeps people away from learning these games.

[@goobula]

For sure! People get intimidated and rightfully so. All Tekken content is usually professional tournaments or crazy combo videos.

[@storageroomb746]

I always tell people to watch the Polygon video about getting into fighting games. It has some great advice and helped me kick off my Guilty Gear Strive career.

[@zodiac909]

This game was so complete, it was the first game in 10 years that I bought at full price.

[@goobula]

And it really feels worth it. Like I know I'm going to be playing this on and off for years.

[@WeAreHorae]

Well the casual take encapsulates the majority of the player base, so it's nice to see this sort of angle!

[@goobula]

For sure! I've always found that fighting game content leans towards the competitive angle so it was nice to put something together that sort of avoids that.

[@jasonmontoya4749]

Got Tekken 8 also, no regrets

[@goobula]

For real, I get so much buyers remorse when buying games full price. But not for Tekken

[@aaronatkinson177]

No regrets for me

[@darrouse1789]

Thank you for the review! My last tekken was 3 when i was but a little kid and jumping back into this one just feels incredible. The nostalgia mixed with just how legit great this game is is an incredible feeling. I'm very bad at the moment, but I'll try my best for sure haha Also, somw great advice about not looking at the guides and picking someone who's looking cool to you. I've seen a lot of the same sentiment online and it's nice that people heavily advice against meta and all that. Love Hwoarang personally, but he's a bit too difficult for mw atm, so I'm going for some other cool peeps like Paul and Victor 😄

[@goobula]

Thank you for watching and I'm really happy you've jumped back in! Probably the best time too considering how good the game is! Victor is great fun! I can't use Hworang either 😭 he doesn't make sense to me. I'm glad you're having a good time with the game though it doesn't matter if you're good or bad as long as you're enjoying it

[@darrouse1789]

@@goobula I love the game, just jumped out of almost a 10h long ranked session with Paul 😂 Have to say, the community is surprisingly great! Sure, some bad apples here and there, but most people are respectful, no tbagging, emote spamming or anything. Even made 1 new acquaintance after a very intense sesh, agreed to spar sometime in the future!

As someone who hasnt played a fighting since Street fighter 4, i Got Tekken 8 after watching evo matches on youtube, and heard the new one was coming out late January, it wasnt on gamepass so decided to risk it and buy it day one. I play with friends and fam on offline VS mode mainly with occasional online rank with just me, and Dude its so fun 😂 a great party game to play when we get together and hangout. All of us just using the few moves we know, button mashing, and reacting to combos we accidentally pull off is great! Im having a blast playing so far! Also found another good channel, loving the vids man. Just Subbed 🎉

[@Rough_Estimates]

7 had a story mode alongside the arcade mode on release

[@goobula]

I did! But as a package it felt lacking. Especially in comparison too 8.

I'm confused by the question 😂

[@Gazzoosethe1]

This game is what tekken is supposed to be. tekken 7 was the shittiest game i’ve ever played compared to all the other games and i am an experienced player

[@josesoldevilla3092]

Tag 2 for me it's unbalanced

[@jakeowenramos5754]

Cool tekken 8 for costumization of musics for all tekkeb in any stage

[@Gazzoosethe1]

@@josesoldevilla3092 there were issues as you would expect from a 52 character with limitless tag team combinations you can do but that game is like tekken 5 one of the most complete fighting games i´ve ever played. What is missing from tekken 7 is the quality of the content and the FUN, the game is boring and 7 is not balanced at all. Almost all the DLC Chars are OP and you have my word that tekken 7 is the wost in the series.

[@josesoldevilla3092]

@@Gazzoosethe1 tho I respect your opinion and your insights Tekken almost died during Tekken tag 2 if content wise sure it's t7 but when it comes to gameplay Tag 2 literally hard to balance with different characters this why in some Evo tourneys if they whiff once a whole counter hit combo will insta death you in t7 I have to disagree with op dlc characters yes there are some really broken early on release but time and time they reduce their dmg like fahk and Leroy especially the son of a bitch akuma and Lidia they tone it down time after time to look for a fair optimal gameplay content for t7 it could've been better but the gameplay with rage art and drive is a huge + for the game creating comebacks and opportunity to win

[@Gazzoosethe1]

@@josesoldevilla3092 tekken 7 was not even balanced. Have you played the DLC Chars? like almost all of them were broken. Tekken tag 2 sold less because it released in a period where the main trend were fps games and the game didn´t have a good marketing campaign therefore this was the result. About the balancing it is impossible to perfectly balance a game with 52 characters with endless tag Combinations. But it is a good game. Tekken 7 is a unfinished rushed piece of shit of a game

[@ghostchasewrestling]

Its the best tekken game cuz tekken always improves. Unlike MK.

[@goobula]

I gotta agree there, MK has always felt to same to me

[@ghostchasewrestling]

@@goobula exactly, like sure maybe the MK formula worked well for a couple of installments but after all these years, got super stale imo.
