Who is Bruce Irvin? The man that should have been in Tekken 7, not Fakhumram.

[@marlonmontelhiggins8570]

Or, more specifically, the *Muay Thai fighter* who should have been in Tekken 7. I miss the hell out of him, too. Man, I could've even downloaded Tekken Mobile and played it for Bruce, but it got taken off of the app stores before I got a chance to get it. And, sure, I could play as Fahkumram when he gets released, but...he's not Bruce, man.

[@dtill5322]

@@marlonmontelhiggins8570 Bruce is the original poster boy and will always be. I laughed when I saw on KZbin saying Tekken characters cloned after movie stars. Had Bruce as if he was created off Tony Jaa. Went all the way back to Tekken 2. Me and a few others was like wrong!!! Bruce was out way before Jaa's career started Tekken 2 1995'. Ong Bak didn't debut until 04-05'. He is one of my favorite characters and no matter who they try to clone/copy. None will replace him.

No one's been done dirtier in Tekken history. Few were ignored for multiple games. But to be replaced twice, and then a third time before _even_ having a chance to reappear? They exorcised him from the grave and murdered his ghost. Sad times to like characters that the devs don't have any love for.

[@manrightchea]

I know it's really unfair. It sucks when you have to force yourself to consider learning/liking another character since you know they'll constantly f*** over your actual favorite. They always f*** with the black characters though. They did it with Bryan first taking preference over Bruce, they did it with Christie replacing Eddie, they did it with Master Raven replacing Raven. Now we got this piece of s*** Josie and Fahk replacing the proper legacy Muay Thai. Now you got stupid bigoted f****acting like you're crazy for preferring Bruce over those two. Especially Josie, she's trash, the only reason that people like her is because they're hard up and she's fap bait. Now we got this freakshow replacing Bruce again..

Tekken won't be complete for me without Bruce and Kunimitsu. T7 has been a quality experience for me and continues to be so - but the feeling regarding the exclusions leaves a bitter sweet taste.

[@paradisearcher9334]

[@nightmareimpact8103]

Who is Bruce Irving? The most disrespected character in Tekken. Introduced in Tekken 2 then discarded and moves raped and giving to Bryan Fury. Bruce was brought back in Tekken 5 and was easily the worst character in the game because his key moves where stolen. Bruce was redesigned in Tekken 6 with cool MTS options. Tekken 7 Bruce again pilfered for key moves by Josie & Fakuram. No character in Tekken has been more disrespected

[@brianingram415]

The Best ALWAYS gets the most disrespect!

[@QuantemDeconstructor]

Man sought out by Kazuya and still got disrespected to no end by the devs, I love Bruce due to how tough, brutal, and dangerous he is as a character, he REALLY needs to come back in Tekken 8 if that ever happens, but who knows at this point, Harada may be tired of developing the same series for so long and still getting shit over his decisions

[@musicmodjoe2139]

Note: Bruce's T5 appearance was a graphically edited version of his tag 1 model which had his t5 moves. In t5dr as mainmanswe points out he was a trash character. I can't think of how Bruce was used in online play, it's like they decided to bring bag everybody from tag but keep there moves without new stuff (they disrespected Bruce).

[@frankieragnarok8437]

That's how Harada does dark skinned characters. Bruce does not have COMPLEXION PROTECTION like Bryan or Steve. Harada would spend budget on a palette swap for Lili's BUTLER.... and Violet or Miharu. But when it's Bruce suddenly he can not do a palette swap. Harada always disrespects characters that don't have the complexion for the protection. So avoid frustration and play a top tier white character or a Mishima. The blonder the better. PS Tekken 7 was released december 2014. So even IF Bruce Irvin appears now it's almost 6 YEARS later. The disrespect is real.
