No way. Harada knew all along the patch would be controversial. He is the one calling the shots beyond border members and investors. Tekken 8 has been doing all the wrong moves since release and I’m glad I jumped out of the ship.
As someone who doesn’t play Tekken, why does increase health bar cause backlash?
While the backlash is justified the absolute degeneracy of tekken community once again proved the old saying:
“No matter how much you win in a fighting game you are still a massive loser.”
People are sending death threats not only to developers but also to content creators. One youtuber was told not to come to a tournament or something bad might happen to them. Also the loonies on r/Tekken are said to have been sharing photos of game developers and mocking their appearance and questioning their intelligence.
On a second thought if I devoted 30 years of my life to developing a skill that is useless outside of a one specific game in one specific genre, I would too suffer from identity crisis and mental disorder once that game becomes terrible.
Took the long way around to say that it’s justified backlash.
Now kids, this is why you don’t say double negatives.
The author could have just said was justified and it would have been fine.
So the threats were fine essentially, okay thank you.
Basically every fighting game seems stuck in a rut that hasn’t advanced in any big way for 10+ years.
